I really like this commander, and I was thinking about making a budget version of this deck. Pretty standard Child of Alara strategy, find High Market or a similar sac outlet, and then plenty of recursion to wipe the board over and over, and then hopefully grind out your opponents.

The most expensive cards in the deck:

Austere Command - 7

City of Brass - 5

Darkwater Catacombs - 5

Erebos, God of the Dead - 7

Forbidden Orchard - 5

High Market - 5

Knight of the Reliquary - 6

Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker - 6

Nylea, God of the Hunt - 5

Pharika, God of Affliction - 5

Puppeteer Clique - 6

Solemn Simulacrum - 5

Supreme Verdict - 5

Tolaria West - 6

Venser, the Sojourner - 6

Weathered Wayfarer - 7

Xenagos, God of Revels - 6

Some less budget cards that should probably be in if you can afford them (in no particular order):

Fetchlands

Dual lands

Shock lands

Mirari's Wake - 10

Mana Reflection - 20

Oracle of Mul Daya - 13

Consecrated Sphinx - 14

Demonic Tutor - 20

Vampiric Tutor - 40

Mystical Tutor - 8

Sensei's Divining Top - 30

Eye of Ugin - 10

Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre - 40

Genesis - 12

Oblivion Stone - 12

Thassa, God of the Sea - 8

Volrath's Stronghold - 25

Miren, the Moaning Well - 10

Diamond Valley - 150 (o.0)

Garruk Wildspeaker - 10

Jace, the Mind Sculptor - 100 (cause why wouldn't you play him if you have him?)
