Deck Description

Let's make a deal, shall we?

This is a Budget Elder Dragon Highlander deck (BEDH for short). It is meant for the Elder Dragon Highlander format, a.k.a. Commander. If you are not familiar with the format, I'll link it below for you.

I mostly use MTG Vault for my own private projects nowadays, but feel free to comment or request a deck of your choice. I've loved the Vault so far, and I like that they are still improving on it, as well as I am improving on my English language skills.

So, if you like what you see, consider checking out some of my other budget-y work from the link below.

How to Play

It is hard to believe I haven't made a Gwafa Hazid deck earlier.
Well, now or newer!

Gwafa Hazid makes deals with opponents: put counters on them to remove their ability to attack or block, but provide their controllers with extra cards in the process. The downside is having to keep Gwafa Hazid around for the effect to remain, which is why this deck has quite many ways to do so!

Besides Hazid, this deck is completely formed around politics and combat control. Goad creatures to make opponents attack each other, make deals and bargains with beneficial effects, then strike hard once you have a clear shot at your foes' backsides!

Thematically "an offer you can't refuse" would fit right in.

I agree, but since it is still around 2 dollars, I think it is best to wait and see how it's price settles.
