Hey, well done on a budget. Nice Aurelia, the Warleader :)

Phyrexian Reclamation can be a repeatable source of recursion for Kaalia or any other creature, even at instant speed. Let Kaalia die, put her into your graveyard not the Command Zone; recur her to your hand which bypasses Commander tax. Dragon Tempest is a source of haste for Kaalia and any flying creature you cast or reanimate. It has the bonus of being able to do damage if the creature is a Dragon.

Dragon Mage pairs well with Emeria Shepherd . Mage discards the permanents that you then reanimate with Shepherd and Mage refills your hand to keep doing it. Nahiri, the Harbinger can be reanimated by Shepherd and her -8 in two turns can tutor for any creature or artifact including Shepherd. -8 Nahiri, tutor for Shepherd, play a Plains and reanimate Nahiri. Nahiri has other uses besides her -8 she can be repeatable discard/draw for reanimation or even repeatable removal that exiles.

Rakdos, Lord of Riots is a Demon who can reduce the casting cost of all other Angels/Demons/Dragons. If he or other creatures are attacking and doing combat damage to opponents then he's ramp to cast high CMC creatures which helps if Kaalia is disrupted. Arcane Signet is a staple mana rock in Commander. Orzhov Signet and Rakdos Signet is more two drop ramp.

---

Some changes to consider, with suggestions of cuts close to or equal in price:

• Phyrexian Reclamation --> Phage the Untouchable
• Dragon Tempest --> Sigarda's Aid
• Dragon Mage --> Hero's Blade
• Nahiri, the Harbinger --> Sword of Vengeance
• Rakdos, Lord of Riots --> Akroma, Angel of Fury
• Bloodgift Demon --> Demanding Dragon
• Arcane Signet --> Exquisite Archangel
• Orzhov Signet --> Avarice Amulet
• Rakdos Signet --> Chancellor of the Annex

My advice is cut the majority of the equipment theme for more ramp since ramp is going to help more to cast Kaalia and high CMC creatures. Phage the Untouchable and Sigarda's Aid are two expensive price cards for your budget that aren't doing much in your deck. You can't cheat Phage onto the battlefield with Kaalia or reanimation which makes it pretty useless. Aid is a good card, but not taking enough advantage of equipment and I don't think you need to since the most important equipment you want to play Greaves/Boots are low mana cost to cast and equip.

If interested I offer more advice. Good luck with your deck.

• Golden Egg -> Gold Myr

• Heavy Mattock -> Ogre's Cleaver

• Sparring Construct -> Angelic Armaments

• Raise the Alarm -> Brawler's Plate

• Battlefield Promotion -> Goldvein Pick

• Flutterfox -> Armored Skyhunter

Also it looks like you forgot to add your lands

Since Snake Cult Initiation only works for combat damage, switching to Traveler's Cloak is probably the right move.

Swapping Elbrus out for something else is also probably the right idea, but instead of Loxodon Warhammer, try Shadowspear. Either option works, though. I would try Banshee's Blade and Nim Deathmantle instead of Hero's Blade and Trailblazer's Boots

Tezzeret's Gambit seems like an easy include, but I personally wouldn't cut a signet to add it, but possibly something else might do. The various proliferate cards are all useful, so choose which you like most, but if you get your hands on a Contagion Engine, swap out Contagion Clasp for it.

Maybe try Expedition Map and Wayfarer's Bauble instead of a couple of your other ramp spells since you have Muldrotha.

Lastly, I think you can get away with cutting an infect creature if you feel you need something else more.

I would drop Chaos Wand as it doesn't quite fit with the theme. Also Sol Ring is pretty much only used in commander or brawl. Sphinx of the Guildpact probably isn't worth it either. Hero's Blade needs more legendary creatures to be really useful.

Might want to check out Murderous Rider
