So, there are a lot of players in my area who tend to want to play Commander, however, they don't feel as if they are wanting to drop $40 into a preconstructed deck without giving it a try, and they generally don't want to take the time to construct their own commander decks. Being as such, I felt there was a need to throw together some budget commander decks that I could trade to players for cards so they are not spending money on a deck, and it will help them learn a bit about the format, while letting me construct decks (which I enjoy), and get some trade value out of it.

The first deck I decided to throw together is Gisa and Geralf. Over all, it has a great ammount of synergies to be able to sacrafice dudes to trigger abilities and then replay the creatures using Gisa and Geralfs ability. Using things such as Black Cat or Crypt Keeper trigger abilities, and then allow you to replay them for cheap. There are a lot of fun mechanics, and being able to cast Zombies for 0 using Rooftop Storm and then using Havengul Lich's ability to recast Zombies allow you to throw Zombies onto the board for 1 colorless each. Trigger that by sacking ten guys to ping players for damage using Vengeful Dead, Zulaport Cutthoat, and Diregraf Captain means you can ping your players without attacking, and then recast them using the Havengul Lich, and get some triggers off of Diregraf Colossus to produce 2/2 Zombies to build up a wall.
