when BFZ comes out, i would replace talus with a lantern scout

drop 2 plains for 2 forests, because path to exile and blood moon are things you want to avoid.

I wouldn't play Mimic Vat; I would include 2 more druids in that slot. The deck would benefit from having some removal in the main or sideboard, but I really like this budget build.

TranSpyre can you tell me the reason why you think i should play it? I am sorry but I think its useless. Splashing red for this creature which doesnt have synergy with my deck because I do not play spells which target my creatures. Only Cloudshift but I usually want to target only 1 creature with it. Sure its good card but it has better use in some RW ally deck which play for example Titan's Strength. Whats more it has high mana cost.

oh hey ehuez, I've found a bunch of cards and been suggested a bunch of cards, and put it in the maybe board. That may help you.

You can minimally slash red for akoum battlesinger and Zada by adding Stomping Grounds/Sacred Foundry, BoP, and using Harabaz.
It's worth it as a one of because the synergy with Dromoka's command, as well as gods willing/become immense/might of Old Krosa,and other similar cheap effects

shock lands are not budget :( and the change you are suggesting would completely change strategy of my deck. I will do changes in the deck list after BFZ release... now its too soon to make bigger changes like splashing another colour.

Seems pretty strong. The best thing about allies is that you can play budget and still have a deck that works!
I would play some removal mainboard (I know you cant do Path, but maybe Swords2Plowshares or the like).
Also, I would add 1 Falconer to sideboard, maybe take out 1 celestial purge.

Hi thanks for your comment! unfortunatelly Swords to Plowshares is not modern legal. I am going to buy Abzan Falconer next month with new BFZ cards.

Would Gavony Township be too costly? I feel it would be decent in this sort of deck.

Nef thank you for reminding me this land. I will buy it with new cards from Oath of the Gatewatch. I do not understand how could I forgot it because I have it in list of ally support cards. How many copies would you recommend playing?

LDM393 thank you for your suggestion but as you can see in the description this deck is budget friendly. Play set of Collected Company costs almost the same as the whole deck so its definitely not a cheap card.

my apologies, i thought coco's price went down. You could go with commune with natures, but i like lead the stampede a bit more. Also, natural state for the sideboard seems amazing
January 19, 2016 12:43 a.m.
Now that twin doesn't exist, Natural State is going into my own SB. It is a great choice because most things we want to hit are 3 cmc or less anyways and the life from Nature's Claim can actually be relevant in an aggro deck like allies.
January 19, 2016 1:19 a.m.
Nef and LDM393 thanks again for commenting! I added Natural State to my SB

Garruk Wildspeaker and Gideon, Ally of Zendikar are some planes walkers to mix with Oath of Gideon. Although Gideon is still fairly expensive, I've been trying out Garruk's -4 as a finisher. Since I have been only running 1 of each, I've used it once, but thats my suggestion!
January 19, 2016 5:07 p.m.
Gideon is out of the question because of budget constraints. Garruk might be too I'm not sure if ehuez is willing to consider it.

yay! go budget! what about getting rid of path and or vat and running some of the bigger allies? I haven't tested vat but path is a hit and miss for me. esp since you and I both have a similar aggro build. I came up with hardened scales, and was hoping it would see budget play. I'm glad it did! you should check out my All-in-Allies brew.
