Main Deck (99 cards)

Sideboard (1 card)

Creatures (1)

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

I have yet to play a game of Commander so this is a blind attempt at building a Commander deck. I would like to keep the budget under $100 if possible. Any help would be great!

Needs Phenax, God of Deception as commander.

A Phenax deck would look totally different: Walls with high toughness, enchantments like "Intruder Alarm" or "Freed from the real", equipment which increases toughness, and so on.
Also Phenax is not a real budged card, which might be OK for a commander, but that's the reason why I didn't add him in my suggestions.

So, for the type of milling I've got here would Mirko be better than Phenax?

To make full use of Phenax, I would add some more defenders like Wall of Frost, and Enchantments or Artifacts which allow you to untap your creatures and thus use them again. "Intruder Alarm" would be the best one to get because it allows you to untap (and thus tap and mill) your creatures with every creature your opponent plays.
At the moment your deck is rather spell-heavy, and I would stick with Mirko.
Question is, do you want to play this singe or multiplayer?

Single... I'm familiar with various defenders since I play a UB mill regularly. I would be willing to change it around to work with Phenax since I already own like 4 of them, so it wouldn't put me out of pocket buying one.

OK, budget (single cardprice below 2$) suggestions for a Phenax deck:
Hover Barrier; Jace's Phantasm; King Macar, the Gold-Cursed; Knacksaw Clique; Wall of Frost; Wrexial, the Risen Deep; Silent Arbiter; Dragon's Eye Savants; Dream Stalker; Drift of Phantasms; Glacial Wall; Murmuring Phantasm
Sword of the Paruns; Slagwurm Armor; Illusionist's Bracers; Magewright's Stone
Freed from the Real; Intruder Alarm (~3,5$ but it's worth every cent); Pemmin's Aura; Second Wind;
Triton Tactics
