Do you want to play EDH? Don't you have an EDH deck? Do you think most of those ready-to-play-decks cost too much for your desires?...Or do you just think you can't figure out a funny idea for your EDH deck?NO MORE!Budget EDH-series is meant for players that want to play EDH.They are playable and their price is low! (Between 25 and 50 bucks.)This specific budget EDH deck was requested by Kilrane.
One Kraj. A bunch of nasty combos awaiting to outsmart your opponents. No matter if your combo is about stealing all your opponents' creatures, making all creatures you control 200 000/200 000, drawing your whole library or creating an infinite amount of mana, this deck can handle it. (As example, if you control Horseshoe Crab/Soliton, Khalni Gem and Kiora's Follower along with the Kraj, you get infinite amount of mana and can give your creatures as much +1/+1 counters as you want.)With the right cards, everything is possible.

This is one of the best decks I've seen. You might want to add more proliferate, though. Great deck! I'm just curious though: what makes a deck "hot"?
It's posted by NorthernWarlord is what makes a deck hot!Is it still 'X amount of likes/comments in Y amount of time'?
All I know is, it was hot at 4 likes/1 comment, but not at 3 likes/1 comment. But you're right...Northy is the ETB ability that triggers the algorithm. :)
This is wonderful. I'm tempted to just go buy it, but if I bought every one of your budget decks that I wanted, I'd be broke... which would be rather ironic. +1
How does this deck work?
To me it seems strictly multiplayer. It doesn't contain any little death touch nasties to get down early game but it should be able to ramp into a fatty by turn 5 and keep it there to guard life totals are forge alliances with weaker players. Its a bit flying weak, I would have added in something like sky asunder or silklash spider to the deck, taking out wirewood channeler. Wrath weakness is a thing in here as well. So playing wrap in vigour/hibernation/fresh meat instead if dismiss would probably be good. I say this because if you save your stuff instead of countering the spell, that gives you way more board advantage/card advantage.The main way this deck will work is that you have to assemble a infinite combo with krajj into your opening hand, or as close to one as you can get. Then try and get that combo onto the field without your opponents stopping you. Most of the other things in the deck that are not combo bits are there to draw cards or to stall.This is how I would play this deck at least.... so I guess what I mean how I would play this deck is very very slowly! XD
Wirewood Channeler is part of the soliton combo.
ah right >.< good thing I didn't play this deck!
On reflection I have decided that taking out the channeler is fine, there are two other pieces in his place in the form of kirora's follower and angothien elder. I stand by what I said eelier now I have had more time to look it over again.
This deck needs Bloom Tender, Warlord.
Such value! So cheap! Much wow!

Experiment one may be good so you may be able to regen your commander.
Add the new Ezuri. It'll be bonkers here.
Contagion Engine will help with more proliferate. and maybe Gilder Bairn for doubling +1/+1 counters :) love to see simic deck in hot section :)
Maybe Blighted Woodland as another mana source and a pseudo ramp spell. :3
Exploration???? Might be good just to get more mana
mmm... not exactly budget...
But it isn't too expensive, it might be roughly£6 but it isn't that bad price wise
i guess, but none of the other cards are nearly that much
Hey, man. I love your Budget EDH decks, I've used your Brago for inspiration and I'll probably try your Infect Gahiji. Have you ever tried a Derevi Budget? I'd love to build a Derevi deck
Is anyone seeing the low/med/high value of this deck as $0.00? I know this is a budget deck, but c'mon now...Nice deck though! I used to run Kraj but couldn't make it work with my budget and cards I already owned so I ran Vorel instead. Good to see cheap EDH decks every once in awhile.Edit: Sorry, my comment posted twice. Must've double clicked post. My mouse is old and does that on its own a lot.
I actually am. No cards are displaying their price for me, so everything is 0.00

Nissas pilgrimage instead of cultivate?????
Why not both?
But then what would you get rid of????
Well cultivate is better most of the time since you're able to get islands with it. I find that adding more ramp is usually a good option in my commander decks, but I'm not sure what to take out.
with so much ramp already I would more say this deck is lacking in payloads. Pilgrimage is a good thought though as it thins one more land. I would take out cultivate as it isn't arcane. I know there is no synergy with arcane in the deck but still, it might be a positive corner case where it comes in handy... like if you steal one of the kamgwa krein for example.
To think this blob is what put Rakdos in a coma.
You can add grand artificer for pili-pala. Infinite mana.
Also, can you make an interesting puresteel paladin deck? It doesnt have to be budget. Adding cards like godsend and loxoden warhammer would be cool with nahiri as well! Thank you!
Haven't been around this site for a long time (this is what senior year in high school does to you), but you missed one of my all time favorite +1/+1 counter cards: Blessings of Nature. :)
Great deck, Northy! Total +1! Great work, as always.
WARNING: I AM NEW TO COMMANDER GAME TYPEI've been told by friends that, to play tournament style EDH you need to be post-melenuim (after the year 2000), or have then "new art" card design. Again, please correct me! I really hope I am wrong, because there are tons of amazing cards that are pre-melenuim (before the year 2000) that I would be super happy to run!
Your friends are idiots, get new ones. (JUST KIDDING. They're idiots, but feel free to keep them.) ;)
Yes! Thank you so much! You are a FREAKING LIFE SAVER! That makes my life so much easier! Can I use Creature Legends instead of Legendary Creatures for commanders? Also, can I use Unhinged cards?
If by "Creature Legends" you mean creatures whose only type is "Legend", absolutely (they're Legendary). As for Unhinged, SHAME ON YOU...of course not!!! (UNLESS you're just playing casually by "house rules" which allow it.)
Look up a card like "Aboshan, Cephalid Emperor" and you'll see it's a: Creature - Cephalid Legend.Not a legendary creature: they look like: Legendary Creature - Sphinx .So, the question is does it matter if the Legend is before or after the Creature? I honestly have no idea
Ok, Wikipedia says that they are the same thing, just changed in Champions of Kamigawa. Also, please don't tell my English teacher I just cited Wikipedia, or she'll have my head.
Shhhh....... ;)
It's fine to use wiki for info that's not for school
Wiki ALL day long!!
Any Ideas for a commander yet? I'm curious.
Pick your color(s) first, then you can find a comander. You can always just type "Legend" into the card search engine... don't forget to set the page to 50.
stormtide, I know, I'm just joking. My English teacher threatened bloody murder to anyone who cites Wikipedia.
Yeah, mine too
Very interesting deck. i've always liked that kraj dude!In the meantime, it would be cool if all you ladies & gents could take a peek at this strange new deck i have made: http://www.mtgvault.com/misthoof/decks/budget-turn-1-win/thanks 4 your time!
Dude, you're really advertising your deck on another person's site? That's kind of lame
That tends to happen around here...
Yup ruthless self-promotion FTW
At least you're honest. And you've got a sense of humor.
Onnellista uutta vuotta ystavani!! (That's what Google Translator came up w/ for "Happy New Year, my friend!!"...but something about it (besides the lack of proper punctuation) seems...off? (If I said anything humorous, be sure to let me know.) ;) At any rate...all good, to you & yours. :)
Is Northy done with MTG Vault? He hasn't built a deck or posted anything in ages (I've been stalking him ::D). If he is gone, we'll all miss him!
I hope not. I like his decks
Same. I also considered him a kind-of-sort-of-vault-friend. If you look at his gratitude page, I was there.
Northy come back!
Where'd he go?
And I quote. "Thanks pal for your compliments!I used to create a lot of decks back when this got released, but as you may see, nowadays I don't have that much time to hang around in MTG Vault. This is mostly because my studies and my girlfriend have found ways to keep me busy.Thank you a lot for asking though! I hope you'll spend some quality time around these parts!"Northy is a busy person, but I'm sure he'll be back eventually.(Text taken from an earlier deck post, 800.)

Worry not dear friends! Cavalr... No, Northy is here!
Hi! You're alive!
Told you that he'd be back...
I bow before your telepathic powers.
NorthernWarlord Budget EDH Karlov of the Ghost Council when?
Right now.http://www.mtgvault.com/northernwarlord/decks/budget-edh-gentleman-karlov/
Hey Northern I have somewhat of a challenge for ya. Zurgo Bellstriker EDH? I don't really know if it is possible to build a decent theme around it or not
Hey Northy, it's been awhile. I would like to see your take on a budget Volrath, the fallen commander deck. I'm just sick of the unoriginallity in commander decks, every black commander deck has all the same cards, with a few differences here and there. I run a Xenagos deck with no eldrazi and no Vorinclex, and I still win on a regular basis. Well enough of that. Good luck, Northy.
Sorry everyone that I've been away for something like two months. I've been really busy with Christmas, my birthday... ...and of course, my girlfriend. ; )I guess I'll be back in deckcrafting in a couple of days.
Glad things are going well... And, welcome back. Take your time, we'll all still be here.
glad you are well. :) when you have some time, can you create som deck with commander momir vig, or some ally EDH please? :) i like your decks :) and GL & HF with girlfriend :D

if Solition says B: Untap Solition ... how does that transpose onto Kraj? Can someone confirm how this can work, ? Any Official MTG rules to support this? My friends would probably argue against the feasibility of transposing the ability if I'd try.
It wouldn't because it says untap soliton, not untap target creature. If a card uses a specific name of a card in the ability, it only works for that. Also, for future reference blue is {U}, black is {B}.
Thanks for the precisions, Stormtide
Prophet of kruphix is banned, i recommend removing it from the decklist ;)
Gilderbairn needs to be added ASAP; relevantly, it activates off UNTAPPING, which presumably allows you to combo a lot better, because it allows you neatly loop with Gyre Sage's activated, or Viridian Joiner.There's a really overpowered and clever rules interaction you should consider: Step 1: Turn a planewalker into a creature, this can be done with a Memnarch & Karn Silver Golem,Step 2: Tap Kraaj and Kraaj gains the planewalker's Loyalty AbilitiesStep 3: Profit, i.e. Kraaj can activate the Loyalty Abilities, but is not bounded by the once per turn rule, because the Kraaj is not a planeswalker, therefore, it's pretty much an instant win. Memnarch is playable anyway with a deck making so much mana, and Karn is SPECTACULAR because it also allows your Kraaj to access the activated abilities of any of your artifacts; so to that end, also consider a Nevinyral's Disk/Oblivion Stone; also I think you'll find a Rings of Brighthearth goes neatly, as would Illusionist's Braces
