This deck is a creature bounce and enters the battlefield matters deck. I tried to make the deck using a few relatively obscure cards starting with the commander but quite a few staple cards managed to find their way into the deck. The deck tries to win the game by locking down creature plays, in effect this deck is aimed at moving the metagame around by devaluing creature plays.

Overall Deck Rating: Unrated

Fun Factor: High

Play Difficulty: High

Ability to Win: Unrated

Budget Adjusted Ability to Win: Unrated

The rules of the budget acquisition is that no card can cost me more than $10 to acquire which can be accomplished by finding good prices on the cards or by just using cheaper mostly equivalent cards.

Infinite Mana:

The deck has a few of the more obscure infinite mana loops.

Rings of Brighthearth + Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx + Liquimetal Coating + Voltaic Key + 6 or more devotion

Sage of Epityr + Lady Sun + Lightning Greaves + Captain of the Mists + Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx + 7 or more devotion

Deadeye Navigator + human (ex: Sage of Epityr ) + Captain of the Mists + Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx + 5 or more devotion

Lady Sun + Lightning Greaves + Peregrine Drake +Caged Sun
