So I threw together a few cards I had laying around for my first attempt at a commander deck.
Be gentle, it's my first deck
That's fine with me lol it's really my first attempt at even building a from scratch deck.

Psst... I heard you were in the market for an extremely cheap EDH deck.
I'll just leave this here...
Mikaeus, Extreme Sub $20 Budget EDH Playtest

Sleazebag you wouldn't happen to have been around mtgdeckbuilder.net back in the day? Might be a coincidence of user names, but you have the same name as someone I used to know over there.

It's less that I'm looking for a budget one and more that I had cards sitting around and threw them together to see if they'd mesh without spending money on anything.

I have an Intet, the Dreamer deck that I've been working on (you can find it here: Time Keeps 'Dragon' On) so I can probably give you some tips. First off, exactly how much is your budget? As in, how much are you willing to spend on cards?

RoarMaster: Nice to see you too! Honestly I have been pretty quiet on magic forums since I stopped visiting MTGdeckbuilder, even though I have been actively playing Magic!
The reason is I didn't really like the layout of these forums much, but I decided to post a bit here a few days ago and shamelessly promote my Mikaeus deck (Check it out) and now I'm hooked :|

My max is hopefully less than $2 a card, I am picking up an Animar soonish on a trade, but I don't see myself buying anything over $5 and it'd have to be a very key piece to make me pay my $2 max

Mono color is the best for hyper budget. Goblins with Krenko, Mob Boss.
Control with Talrand, Sky Summoner- can even toss in a few combos here and there. Infinite mana with Grand Architect+Pili-Pala, and outlets like Capsize, Blue Sun's Zenith, Magma Mine, or another budget mana sink for the win card.

You might want to reconsider a different commander then. Intet is most effective with cards like Sensei's Divining Top, Scroll Rack, and Sylvan Library, all of which are in the $20+ price range.
You should be able to make a good Gruul deck on a budget though. I suggest Xenagos, God of Revels as your commander.

As I said above I'm replacing Intet with Animar, Soul of Elements relatively soon so less focus on top deck stuff, this was just a spare cards deck of stuff I have already.

Dude, I tried making a budget EDH deck when I first got into the format, (since my modern and legacy decks are a little too pricey) and I failed. I ended up buying a bunch of tutors and staples like I do with every other format. lol.
I will check the deck out in a few minutes. But I am not too familiar with the format as a whole, so my help will probably be a little sketchy.
