Maybeboard


I am a new player to magic and love the EDH format. I really like Sram for some reason but I know a lot of the equipment cards are expensive, swords of x and y and the sort. Regardless, I wanted to make a deck that could hold its on at FNM while still being on a budget. This is the first deck I have ever made so I know it's going to be rough. I would appreciate any and all criticism. I tried to get some low cost creatures in place so I could boost them up with the inevitably large number of equips I will have, hopefully so I can recover okay in the event of a board wipe. I know my mana base is iffy, so that's a big part I could use help with. Again, anything helps, just dont break my bank. I don't want this deck to cost me over $60 at base. I can upgrade it in the future, but this is just to get my foot in the door. Thanks in advance.

Guaranteed Cuts


Sptringleaf Drum -> Conviction

Paradise Plume - > Foundry Inspector

Auriok Siege Sled -> Inspiring Statuary

Kemba's Legion -> Kor Duelist

Veteran's Sidearm -> Spirit Loop

I don't feel to bad cutting these, just solid replacements.

Iffy Cuts


Mask of Memory -> Metalwork Colossus

Auriok Bladewarden -> Glorious Anthem

Auriok Replica -> Cultivator's Caravan

Chrome Steed -> Open the Vaults

Lunarch Mantle -> Spectra Ward

These were tougher. Overall I feel the swaps were worth it. Open the vaults was needed in the event of a board wipe that hits my equipment, which could cripple me and cost the game. The rest are good cards being replaced but what I believe to be more helpful cards, though if I am wrong, please tell me, these were tough choices.

Potential Cuts


Compulsory Rest

Rogue's Gloves

Bonehoard

Grifter's Blade

I haven't cut these because I haven't needed to and like the iffy cuts, don't really want to. I'm sure I will find something, but this is all just a work in progress as I try to figure this out.
