[Brainstorming] Designing a Budget Legacy Deck - Part 2

In part 1, I mentioned that many budget Legacy decks tend to be weaker versions of established decks. In this 2nd part of the series, let's zoom in to aggro decks and see why there's a point in playing budget aggro decks in Legacy.


Note: many decks in this series reference spooky's awesome post on Legacy budget decks over at MTG Salvation.

[Brainstorming] Designing a Budget Legacy Deck - Part 1

I have a problem. I want to build a winning budget Legacy deck. I want to do well in Legacy without spending thousands on dual lands, Jace, Tarmogoyfs, Wastelands, and Dark Confidants. I want to be a hero and inspire new players to join Legacy with a $100 budget deck.

The problem is, I've not built a budget deck that beats fully-powered Legacy decks yet.

If you drop by Singapore and want some Magic the Gathering fun, this post is for you!

I'm also planning a series of interviews with the people behind them for you to know them better (see part 1 – Games Haven here).

[Brainstorming] Modern Pauper Ideas

I'm digressing. Having taken a break in blogging, I'm digressing some more and venturing off from Legacy into another Magic Eternal format - Modern. But not just any kind of Modern. With the overall power level muted down to the bare minimum, it is perhaps the most skilled intensive Eternal format ever! I've been racking my brains for deck ideas in Modern Pauper.
