This is a budget build of Xantacha. I wanted a deck that was fun to play and worked differently from most decks.

How it works:

Give Xantcha to an opponent and make them do your work for you!

There are many spells that protect and pump both Xantcha and yourself.

How to pick who to give Xantcha to:

When you're going to play this version of Xantcha you have to start playing before the game even starts. You want to sit directly to the right of the person you want to give Xantcha to.

There are a few exceptions to this rule:

1.) The person to your left isn't wearing deodorant and hasn't bathed in a week.

2.) The person to your left is that guy in your group who loves to sacrifice creatures.

3.) The person to your left is that guy in your group is terrified of doing damage to anyone for any reason.

Optimally, you want the person you give Xantcha to, to be an aggressive player sitting directly to your left who doesn't want to sacrifice creatures.

This deck does have a problem when it gets to heads up play since Xantcha will no longer be able to attack unless you have her, but you can still activate her for 2 damage and a card draw. You'll find you come in second a lot, but you'll have a lot of fun doing it.

Keeping the theme and budget in mind, I'm always open comments and suggestions.
