Due to low price and low average CMC, I'd dtop a couple Plains for some Phalanx Leaders. They'd work great with all the creature-pumping enchantments and they're only about $0.25 a piece.
Other than that, sweet deck! I wouldn't be surprised if WOTC offered you a job building pre-cons at this point.

How could I forget Phalanx Leader? He's one of my favorite creatures! I'll add a couple. Good call.

Ahah, my deck isn't going to lose its second place sooooo fast! xP
That's really a nice, budget and good looking deck you have there! +1 for our Budget-Meister of T/O :D

Stoneforge Mystic mirrors in Legacy are often referred to as "Lightsaber duels".

Spazik008, that card is so good. One copy costs almost as much as 2 of these decks lol.
May 11, 2015 1:35 p.m.
elpokitolama, you just need to hope my red deck falls off before this one or the Dark and Curvy deck overtakes yours!

+1 but why no Seeker of the Way?? It isnt expensive and would flourish heavily in this environment.
May 11, 2015 1:47 p.m.
I considered Seeker of the Way. Especially since the monk theme kind of parallels the Jedi one. But I opted for more permanent pumps. That's why I went with the Heroic dudes at the 2 drop slot.

you need to have him altered so his spear is a double sided lightsaber.
May 11, 2015 1:52 p.m.
Lol, that'd be awesome. Just do it to all the cards in the deck. I imagine Eidolon of Countless Battles would probably dual wield.

Mine will fall before yours, it's been there for a bit longer time :p

Speaking of lightsabers, you could add Fiendslayer Paladin. He has a neat lightsaber, althought it might take your deck out of the 20$ budget.

I like him for the flavor Bruxo, but he doesn't fit the strategy very well. Plus he shares the 3 drop slot with the deck's bomb.

Sagarys praise the Force! This deck is more than an awesome gimick!

I like this deck, and Imma let you finish, but Fiendslayer Paladin has one of the best jedi card arts of all time.
May 11, 2015 5:40 p.m.
asasinater13, Agreed! But unfortunately he doesn't have the best Jedi passive ability of all time.
May 11, 2015 5:41 p.m.
I know he doesn't really fit but Odric, Master Tactician has a lightsaber too. Love the gif btw.
May 11, 2015 6:01 p.m.
Actually, Odric, Master Tactician could work. I just don't know where I'd put him. Because choosing to make no one block when the Graceblade is pumped up is good game.
May 11, 2015 6:04 p.m.
He is a little slow though, so maybe not. Good suggestion though! Thanks!
May 11, 2015 6:07 p.m.
If we're looking at it from a flavor stand point then probably the Phalanx Leader as Odric would be the master. Also it might make the deck a little more concise and all in on the Graceblade Artisan.
May 11, 2015 6:09 p.m.
I also just really like Odric because he was my first rare. Funny story, I actually bought that intro pack because I though that Odric's sword looked like a Lightsaber especially because it was foil.
May 11, 2015 6:12 p.m.
Lol that's awesome. I can see Odric working if you wanted to run him. I think he might be too slow and by turn 5 when he can attack, you might not have 3 other creatures left on the board depending on your opponent. If I were to add him, I'd probably trim 1 Phalanx Leader and 1 Akroan Skyguard, then run 2 copies.

You're going to have to explain how the killer combo works on T4. I see no mana acceleration. As for the deck, Emerge Unscathed is probably better than Gods Willing because of two heroic triggers.

Another one of these budget decks that are gonna get a million upvotes :D?
