So.... Been playing this game since OG Ravnica block (Ravnica City of Guilds, Guildpact, Dissention). So been around for almost twenty years now. I predominantly play casual Commander with my wife and kids.

That being said, I have in the past dabbled into modern tournys (fnm) and a few standard ones. Didn't do much for me so I dont follow metas much.

When it comes to deck building, i tend to make cheaper decks (hence the budget friendly bad ass title).

The decks I build and post may not win every game, but they are super fun and do have the ability to put some hurt on your opponents. Check them out. Feel free to test them and let me know what you think!

hey there this morning i added my illusion deck on here... pretty much step for step as yours but with a Modern Horizons boost and splashing red for blood moon. I'd love if you gave it a look and tell me what you thought!

Single target i see your point. Not very effective, but when overloaded its a bomb. Hexproof +3/+2( at minimum with 1 each LOTU and PI) Unblockable illusions yes please.

At least a sideboard consideration.

Unblockable + hexproof across the board. And overload does not target so no sac triggers.

Splashing red makes this much more awesome.

Gotcha. That makes more sense. However as you stated, the token generation is slow and conditional upon combat damage. So I'm going to pass on the Shinobi. Thanks again for the input.

I will definitely be looking at him more. Thanks!

The Shinobi does not fit my tribe. This is an illusion deck.

While the draw from distant melody is amazing, this is not the focus of the deck.

Thank you for the suggestions though. Much appreciated.

@Abubroki have you managed to look at my commander version of this?

I will have to find my copy but i have Rite. I already have footlight in the deck. Feel free to suggest drops for the other suggestions. I will do my best to track them down. Thanks for the help!

I hsve already priced out the rest to acquire.
