Deck Description

Military Intelligence is all i have to say. . .
NOTE: Budget Baisic is a starter series of budget decks that tries to help new players pick up a given color and a strategy that goes with it. All these decks will be cheap, fun and unique in their own way. . .
Previous Budget Baisic Blue deck: http://www.mtgvault.com/theswarmer/decks/budget-baisic-blue/

Chasm Skulker: ok he will get at least +2/+2 every turn, put an Ordeal of Thassa on him or play Bident of Thassa and you can get through ANYTHING, oh and when they kill your 88/88 guy you get 88 little guys to finish your opponent.
Bident of Thassa: ALL DA CARDS! seriously, you'll need a Reliquary Tower.
Sturmgeist: more cards, a 5/5 or bigger flying body AND another creature to trigger all your stuff, this guy can kill your opponents in 3 turns!

How to Play

You draw a lot of cards, basically. Ideally you want a turn one Cloudfin Raptor, turn two Invisible Stalker and turn 3 Ordeal of Thassa on the stalker. Turn 4 or 5 Chasm Skulker is also great. Yo try to get as much damage in ASAP, your basic common and uncommon guys can swing for 4 damage a turn and draw you bunch of cards, Sturmgeist and Chasm Skulker are just OP in this deck and can act as both walls or 10/10 attackers.
Against aggro you need Chasm Skulker to be big and block and you also need a big Sturmgeist to block, Claustrophobia will help A TON in here, after you have 2 big guys and a Reliquary Tower you can just sit it out with Mana Leaks in your hand.
Against any slow strategy you should play as aggressively in the early turns as you can. Play Chasm Skulker only if you get him big after you play him and try to get at least 5 damage of Sturmgeist. Illusory Angels, Dissolves and Paragons of Gathering Mists will help A LOT, plus your card draw should make it so you have waaay too many threats on the board for them to deal with.

My budget decks are supposed to let you have fun! Which is what i think MtG should be about, i try to make these decks as competitive as possible while still leting you to have a blast while playing them. If you can make your friends to spend around 50$ you could buy 2-4(some of my decks are under 10$) of my decks and make the experience even richer! Also don't just copy the whole deck(you can, but if you can improve something DO IT!), if you have a better idea pls let me know, i can't always make the perfect deck and sideboard. Again GL and HF!
