Goal is to make a Zada deck on a budget. The maybeboard is for cards that would be upgrades once the budget deck is up and running.

When I saw this card in BFZ I thought is was pretty neat, but never got around to building around her. Now she is easily my favorite commander. The basic goal is to target her with a draw spell to get as many cards as creatures. If you get lucky with some rituals, you can go HAM really quickly or just cycle with another draw spell. There are a few draw spells that get you cards at the beginning of the next turn, which is useful when the Reliquary Tower or Thought Vessel aren't in play.

The burst is strong in this deck: play a bunch of pump spells and then Soul's Fire people to death real quick. Even with the small bit of storm/storm support, that component is powerful and has won some games.
