As seen on The Commander's Quarters: 'On this deck tech we brew with Talrand, Sky Summoner as our commander. Control the board while creating an army of drakes to wipe out your opponents!'

I'm really interested to see how a tuned but super budget deck fares at my playgroup's kitchen table meta which predominantly consists of 75% brews - everyone runs very honed and on theme builds but not cEDH, see the rest of my decks for an idea of where the group power level sits. This simple Talrand deck idea looked fun to pilot & I had all of these cards kicking around so I thought I'd give this uber-budget brew a go, see how it plays out. This is the 'upgraded' version of the deck and it comes in at a cool & breezy $35.
