Deck Description

...first, lemme put this spell aside for a moment!

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

This deck is all about drawing cards and reaping the benefits. Alaundo draws you a card (or multiple, with untappers) in a turn, meanwhile isolating some cards from your hand into exile (or possibly even quickening your Suspend-cards).

It is a good idea to keep Alaundo alive as long as possible. When that is not an option, look for alternative cards that can fuel your hand repeatedly, such as Archivist or Zimone. Use cards like Sturmgeist, Psychosis Crawler and Chasm Skulker to keep your opponents on their toes with your massive card advantage.

Pros:
