Deck Description

Welcome to the NorthernWarlord's Budget Decks -series!

These decks are meant to inspire you and your playgroup to create simple, cheap decks and challenge each other! Can you and your friends find out who can dominate the battlefield by spending as little as possible on your cards?

The main idea of each budget deck is to have a medium budget of 10 to 20 dollars (sideboard included). Feel free to leave card suggestions down in the comment section below! Also, if you want to see a specific budget deck in the near future, let me know and I most likely can cook up one for ya!

How to Play

Some find comfort in allies, others in solitude...

This deck attempts a rather silly strategy: win the game just by having a single creature on the field. Get rid of the creatures you don't need, and then proceed to whack your opponent with your sole beater!

- Alchemist's Apprentice, Cursecatcher and Pilfering Imp are all early game dudes with handy abilities that let you get rid of them if needed! Use them to prep up the battlelfield for your main dude!

- Fettergeist and Lone Revenant are your "loners". Both gain a noticeable advantage while alone, meaning you should try having only either of them around!

- Once your "loner" is out in the field, protect it at all costs! Use cards like Mana Leak to counter bothersome spells, and Cast Down to bring down potential blockers and/or threats. If all else fails, respond to your opponent's killing spell with Altar's Reap to eat your dude and gain two cards!

- Not impressed? Having troubles with the deck? Consider taking a look at the sideboard. The cards there can offer you with clever ways to outsmart opponents!

This is interesting! It's like the OPPOSITE of a token deck!

Seeing the fact you want to have one creature, may I recommend some equipment?

Ring Of Evos Isle: Both of your Loners are blue, so you will slowly get bigger. Plus, the surprise hexproof is great.
Swiftfoot Boots: Hexproof and Haste, for the same total cost as the Ring.
Mask Of Avacyn: Again, Hexproof is GOOD.
Darksteel Plate: I'd put this in only if you can't put in the other equipment I recommended. Yeah, indestructible is good, but Modern (And most formats, honestly) is full of single target exile effects to get around it. Hexproof is just better in my opinion.

Some auras:
Aether Tunnel: Unblockable is nice.
Aqueous Form: See Aether Tunnel for reason.
