Deck Description

My group of players has gotten to the point where we can't really justify shelling out for cards with reckless abandon. Bills and other boring 'grown person' stuff hamper the spending on colorful pieces of cardboard. Plus we don't need the unnecessary strain on relationships.
Queue the Budget deck series! Every month or two we shell out 20$ on a deck and fight for dominance just like the good ol days.
Much to my chagrin, turns out budget is kindof a thing on the vault! Other mtg players are growing old just like we are!
These decks are made strictly for multiplayer, 4man+ free for all, no boring 1v1 lockdown nonsense. There are politics to be played and faces to maim. Rivalries and alliances rise and fall from turn to turn. Because of this, the game is slowed a notch, more expensive cmc's are viable, after all, nobody wants power seat too early.
We don't care about ban lists, modern, standard, type 2 or whatever.
As always, these decks are open to suggestion, nothing is concrete in this game. Unless otherwise stated of course. ;)

How to Play

Madness is a guilty pleasure of mine. I love the mechanic, so I'm compelled to create a madness deck with each color combination I think could work. Sooner or later I'll make a U/G one, but so far I've got B/R, B/G, and now this B/U. Basically resurrected a deck I used to play when this was "type 2" while incorporating other things I *think* should improve on my original design.
Basically abuse the madness mechanic with the Looter(s), using the blue aspect to keep your artillery coming. Vexing Sphinx and the Razormanes are new additions to the formula, need to playtest it out to see how I like it.

Suggestion is always welcome.

Deck discussion for U/B Madness

Deck could use better mana fixing. There are a plethora of cheap lands to do the job.

Also on a personal note if you're so interested in politics why not just play Commander instead? Seems like you'd fit in well.

Commander does seem like my cup of tea, but my group of players aren't interested in it. Therefore building a commander deck would be basically useless to me; nobody to play with. Commander is that newfangled mutant form of magic to us old fogeys.
Agree with you about the land, i just slapped the basic up as a placeholder until i sit down and consider what I've got. Which lands did you have in mind? I worry about tap lands slowing down an already slow deck. I'd drop in 4 of those dimir land, but they're tied up in my mill deck at the moment.

Tainted Isle might be something to look into.
