Ever since I asked Northern to make his Simic Hydra deck, I have thought: man, I want to make a budget deck with this guild!This deck uses evolve to buff your starting creatures, but more importantly, to place a few +1/+1 counters on them. The last creatures you play will really pump your starting creatures up.I managed to stay under budget by avoiding doubling season, primal vigor, corpsejack menace, and kalonian hydra here. Feel free to use them if you have the cash.7/7 - added Alchemist's Refuge
This deck follows a simple strategy. You should be fine as long as you bring enough counters along! Good choices are battleship pegs, glass beads, risk pieces (really good for high numbers) or those green houses from monopoly, which are my favorite. Whenever that creature is put in the graveyard, you can say "Go to jail. Go directly to jail. Do NOT pass Go, do NOT collect $200."Play your creatures with evolve. Then play bigger and bigger creatures. Zameck Guildmage, Thrummingbird, and Vorel of the Hull Clade take those tokens and put them to good use. Crowned Ceratok is a nice late - game finisher. Renegade Krasis deserves special mention ... bioshift onto him and watch your creatures all get a bunch of tokens.This deck forms the defense of a team with From the Grave.

You know... When I looked at this, single tear came to my eye.This must be the most beautiful budget Simic that I've ever seen!All this... How should I put it... "Simic feeling", exactly 60 cards, only 13 bucks, it has everything that you need...And man look at that mana curve! Damn I messed up my pants, man!The only card that I'm able to suggest is Prophet of Kruphix, but otherwise this is incredible! Something about twice as better (well, at least cooler) than any Simic that I've EVER created!This is some damn good sight for sore eyes.Thank you for this little piece of heaven. I... I actually think that should I create this...

Thank you so much man! that really means a lot to me.I was kind of bummed out at first by all the cards I couldn't put in here (corpsejack menace, doubling season, master biomancer, etc.), but I got hang of it.Just wait till you see it's sister deck. It's a "from the grave" Golgari deck.
Well, then what are you waiting for? I want to see it!Don't waste your time writing some useless comments!
Lol, that's great.
Love the evolve mechanic! Great budget deck man!Only thing I got is experiment one. You've kept the cost down enough you could add a few and still come in under $20
Hmm ... i'll put her in! Thanks for the suggestion man!
Wait ... minus Thrummingbird and Vigean Hydropon and this is legal in standard. I may need to use this deck!
This is kinda cool. Do you play with it?What i want to know is, is 4 naturalize necessary? You could drop one for something funny like a saphire drake or an elusive krasis (assuming you're using simic only cards)
Nice call dude. I will SB those naturalizes if I ever enter a tournament! Elusive Krasis is probably a better choice in most situations, but I just love Shambleshark.
Definitely has my like. Solid, draw power with Guildmage.Built in Artifact/Enchantment hate (I despise decks that sideboard stuff like Naturalize for tourneys only)Mana curve rocks! Can't underestimate a nice mana curve.Deck is solid, so just throwing out ideas that really don't need to be added.For Thrummingbird consider something like Distortion Strike. He will make sure you get to proliferate, two turns in a row!Or maybe Swiftfoot Boots. Giving the boots to Thrummingbird makes him hard as hell to get rid of. Keep putting all of those counters on Thrummingbird, and attack away.
Man .... I like those ideas, but why waste proliferate on +1/+1 counters for vanilla creatures at that point? Why not aim for level counters or even creatures that can change those counters into extra turns (sage of hours =).
Never played Evolve or Counters...and did not know about sage of hours, but yes, you could take the deck that way too!
Oh no .... I mean Thrummingbird can easily combo with so much stuff that here it's a secondary threat.
Oh. Sorry. Probably my bad. Again, i have never built a deck like this. I seen Thrummingbird...and thought, "if I were to try to build a deck like this, here is where I would focus. Pump him up with counters/make him have hexproof or unblockable/and attack away." I am probably looking at it too narrowly. :)
No problem... it's a wierd-ass creature.
