Calling in Favour - Budget Kambal

Commander / EDH Budget Lifegain WB (Orzhov)

Budget Kambal deck.

The original intention was to put together a deck for less that £40 using the cheapest printing of each card found at a single store and assuming basic lands are free.

This idea has slightly shifted in an attempt to make monitoring the price a little easier given the volatility of card prices. This means the budget for the deck has slightly altered to $50 so I can track the deck cost using the lowest found prices listed on Scryfall. Updates to the deck will be tracked in the update section below to see how the deck changes over time.

Nearly halfway through the year and the deck finally gets a run out. This also prompts a review for two reasons, cards stuck in hand leading me to question their place and a pricing update to dip the deck back below $50.

Subversion is a card that has likely run its course. In the company of 2019+ MtG there are better options out there and in this case that better option is simply a mana rock. Talisman of Hierarchy has also had to make way as the price is creeping up and weirdly it is being swapped out for Arcane Signet as the price is dropping with the numerous reprints. Star Compass also returns following a price drop.

Giving Markov Purifier a try out too as an additional source of card advantage/mana sink. Rootborn Defenses drops out as I've frequently had it sat in hand and not needed it.

At time of update the deck sits $46.49.
