Budget Astarion, the Decadent Commander Deck

The deck runs a simple theme. We want to start off slow playing removal as needed while we build our mana base. Play politics while the game continues so as not to take to much heat early on. We can play our commander early to fill out our life total, but Astarion, the Decadent is a 6 Drop and is best left for the end game. Once you are in the mid-late game, you can play offensive control with lots of removal via kill spells like Murder. All the while we can use the plentiful life gain and drain cards at our disposal to outlast our opponents.

Feel free to leave feedback. I'm sure their is plenty of room for improvement. I can only pull in cards from my own inventory, which should be publicly viewable if you care to take a look.
