Don't Die In Your Hometown

Legacy Budget Control

I build this deck a long time ago, but it was kind of different, since I never used Tapped Out to test it before.

After testing it for a while, I came up with this one, which I'm proud of because it's really hard to beat, or at least it seems so after testing it.

The main purpose of this deck is destroying every creature your opponent casts, while hitting him slowly but constantly.

For this purpose, there are a few active cards like Doom Blade, Tragic Slip , Geth's Verdict or Cruel Edict .

For defending, and still killing your opponent's creatures there are Typhoid Rats and Ambush Viper , that combined with Provoke can kill everything. The same goes with Deadly Allure , but this works better with other creatures.

The Gatekeeper of Malakir is a card that kicked can kill a creature when it enters the battlefield, and then is a plain 2/2, that's always good.

The Royal Assassin is expensive to cast, but it can kill any attacking creature without Vigilance.

The Llanowar Elves can help casting expensive cards like the Lumberknot , that combines very well with the rest of Instants and Sorceries: for every creatures that dies it gets a +1/+1, and it has hexproof!

For this purpose, I added 2 Sakura-Tribe Elder, because it puts a land on the battlefield and it dies, which always can put that +1/+1 on the Lumberknot .

The Green Sun's Zenith is a good card, since it can cast Lumberknot but it also can cast Ambush Viper and Llanowar Elves from the library, that's always helpful.

Finally, there is Garruk, Apex Predator . It's an expensive card to cast, but with the Llanowar Elves and the Sakura-Tribe Elder it can be cast faster. It's not a finisher, but it can destroy other troublesome Planeswalkers, it can destroy any creature, giving you life, and it can put a 3/3 token with deathtouch. Also, after 3 turns you can make your opponent have an emblem saying "Whenever a creature attacks you, it gets +5/+5 and gains trample until end of turn". That's what I call a finisher.

About the lands, I didn't want to put in expensive lands, and with this combination, this deck works fluidly.
