One Hundred Upvotes! —Feb. 4, 2017
Just want to thank everyone who voted for this deck! This is the first of my decks to reach one hundred, but hopefully not the last! If you like this, check out my Modern deck! They're nothing alike!

venok - Dread is like 0.01tix online, so it's not a problem, but I don't really like the card that much... It's just too easy to remove and too expensive for what it does, and if it gets killed it doesn't really get me any value. I do like No Mercy and I'll probably try it out soon.. it's around 1.65 online right now, not too bad.

Torpor Orb likely wants to make its home here. Not sure how bugget that is on MTGO but its only like 2.00 IRL so I don't think its ticket price can be that high.

Quicksilver Amulet may help you put down Ulamog, Darksteel Collosus, or even Butcher of Truth (if you were to play these cards as well) more quickly!?!

This is really appealing but definitely not budget friendly. For those of us that can't afford stuff like Bazaar of Baghdad and Forcefield are there any budget substitutions?

Okay, replying to some old-ish comments because I can.
illumfolly and sjsilver - those are some good suggestions that I will try out, thanks!
CrazyGood-MTG9797 - whoa, that's a lot of changes! Honestly, dropping huge creatures is really not what this deck is about! This deck is super slow and grindy and a turn-4 Darksteel Colossus just isn't something I'm looking to do. The more high-CMC cards I play, the worse cards like Ghirapur Orrery get, since it's harder to empty my hand. It's also pretty easy for me to find a way to win once I've taken control in this deck, so additional win-condition creatures aren't really needed.
ayaeger - yeah, I've been trying to figure that out myself.. Basically, cards like Bazaar of Baghdad and Forcefield are so unique and powerful that there aren't really any budget "replacements" for them. If you're looking to build this deck on a budget, you can sub in any other sort of cards that support the deck; cards like Smoke, Mystifying Maze, Spine of Ish Sah, anything from the sideboard. You could go deeper on artifacts by playing things like Urza's Blueprints and Unwinding Clock to draw extra cards instead of Bazaar of Baghdad + Uba Mask. Things like Winter Orb might be interesting, too, depending on your playgroup. Just look to slow down the game and draw a bunch of cards!

Is Dread or No Mercy out of budget?
