Deck Description

Jeskai, the clan that doesn't respect the traditional USA playstyle and goes tempo/midrange now has a pretty good budget deck.
I know it's expensice but Mantis Rider just has to be there.

Shit worth of talking about:
Narset, Enlightened Master: free spells and evasionĀ“, already pretty good, but the fact that you're Jeskai makes it soooooooooooo much better. You can cast an azborious charm for free, all the 3 abilities are great and that's just the beginning. You can scry, burn, tap and even counter just by attacking.

Mantis Rider: you know the card Lightning Angel right? Well here is a new one. . .

Monastery Swiftspear: it's not a delver but it is relevant as balls, nothing kills it in the early game.

Jeskai Ascendancy, Jeskai Elder: just value, loot, why not? just enjoy the fact that you get combat advantage and card for free, EVERY TURN!

How to Play

Play value spells and value creatures. . . That's all there is to the Jeskai.
Tips vs control or mid: Be aggressive, switch 2 Jeskai Ascendancy and some other things for the chimeras and just bash in as hard as you can. If you see they have mana open WAIT till you have enough to play the thing you want to play and a counterspell.
Tips vs aggro: use Jeskai Charm for the azorius effects and you win. . . Burn the most threatening creatures and when you have 3 or 4 of your own, give em lifelink and swing.

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!

Maybe one winterflame? Everything else is too important, so I would just go with one as a finishing move, it worked fine when I tested it like that
