This decklist is for Aminatou in a budget commander variant. This variant is mostly 2v2 games, so these decks are about halfway between a 1v1 Commander deck and a 4 player FFA deck in terms of speed, focus, and value. This deck is focusing on synergies with Aminatou's +1 and -1 abilities, in addition to a helping of Esper good stuff to smooth out the deck. Primary win-con is through attrition and value with blinking your permanents and gaining ETB triggers.

For our budget rule we can only have 5 (non-land) cards that cost more than $5 TCG low market price. My current 'non-budget' cards are: Cyclonic Rift, Temporal Mastery, Kaya, Ghost Assassin, Twilight Prophet, Venser, the Sojourner

I was play-testing a bit and found that top deck manipulation is sadly not as powerful as I was hoping it could be. counterbalance was unreliable as there is a wide variety of CMCs in commander, and even if I had a brainstorm or Opt, I would frequently not had the right CMC available. Scroll rack and top both fed this plan and I realized i didn't have enough shuffle effects or card draw to reliably use their filtering powers. So I instead just put more raw threats/ flicker enabling cards in.

The next challenge is the number of creatures is low for me to be efficiently flickering permanents. I'll do some more play-testing and see what is most needed
