Budget Ishai/Kraum partners playing off a few themes: 1. Growing from my opponents doing things.
2. Ishai commander damage (Ishai can get big quickly in larger pods) 3.Flying tribal.

Looking for advice on which of the strategies to increase or decrease?

Should I lean into Ishai as a finisher or go wide with flyers? Should I run more bounce and thing like Monologue Tax?
