A under $100 (not including basic lands) EDH deck focused around making Clues and getting draw 2 as many turns as possible. Wanted to try to limit myself to a simple form of EDH for those looking for a restriction to bring in a lower power deck for a fun time. The whole point of the deck is to have a consistent gameplan of making your commander bigger on a budget while having cool and interesting interactions between the 3 token types. Think of this as more of a preconstructed deck which abit more polish. Any includes what would you remove? Any help would be appreciated. Let's see how clean we can get this. :)

I am looking for input of what to change around. Maybe some better finisher options then animating your tokens with Tangletrove Kelp or Rise and Shine

If you have good ideas throw them out. What would you replace? What direction do you think we should go. When you suggest a card offer a card you would suggest to remove.
