Well, the reanimator skeleton guys are generally used to chump block, and when the time comes, to sac them. PoU is good and can pretty much block twice. Nice call on the mana base. Th whole SB is dedicated towards removal/control.

Awesome idea, have you thought about Mortician Beetle ? (he's right at $1) I used to run a deck around him, the Conossiuer, Bloodthrone Vampire, Devouring Swarm , Consuming Vapors , Pawn of Ulamog, Viscera Seer , Geth's Verdict and other such nonsense. It was actually very effective and fast. The beetle would be good for you as they would grow together. Also, Font of Return would be good for you to recycle lost fodder.

what were trying to say about the regen skel is that its exactly that, chump. It would be better to have a "chump" card that has a duel purpose: to actually swing and be sac. Mortician Beetle is a very good suggestion in my opinion. Shop around! There is also Sedge Scorpion thats a 1 drop deathtouch.

Hey!I bought your all deck (1~$) , and i must say its quite slow , aggros with flying/shadow are pwning us hard. Your shroud artifact is very high cost , in blue is a lot of spells , givin shroud for 1 mana (commons cheap) , but its bad color. On 15 games i won 3 , maybe 4 times.
If u want nice budget deck i can recommend u my Mbc for only 2 $ , MBC (Budget 2$ win )

This deck seems fragile... Any removal formate will simply set back all your progress and then your scrambling.... I think a second win con thats gonna be hidden is needed like the flying zombie for 5 mana or Lotleth Troll

Not to ruin anybody's day, but I think this deck got to number 6 on here due to the fact that you can get a turn 7 200/200 for $15, not because of how good it really is. If you're looking for a good budget deck, just look at:

Apostle's Blessing would be good against spot removal and getting past blockers i would also run Rancor for trample so your massive creature isn't chump blocked every turn

I would reccomend another vampire so that you arent too dependent on one combo.

I didn't realize it at first, but you aren't dependent only on Bloodflow Connoisseur , you can have blade on Corpsejack Menace and Pawn of Ulamog too. They will both get 2 counters from sacrificing a monster.

@nutellaisgreaterthanlife- I LOVE your username. Awesome! :D
@GrandToast- Yea, and honestly I win more games without my vampire, and just via my other guys beating the living crap out of my opponents.

I really don't comment often, but this deck is golden if you get a perfect draw, otherwise its absolutely awful. You will have no chance against any competent modern deck with this build.

Well, this deck isn't very competitive, I'm just cheap and use this sometimes when I play my mtg-playing friends (I have 2 mtg-playing friends), and since one of my friends pretty much only plays innistrad tribal decks and the other rarely plays outside of the standard environment, I don't really mind if the deck isn't to good, it's soul purpose is to be fun and cool, since it isn't to hard to get an unblockable 20+/20+ on turn 5-7. Hope that cleared things up!

Dah-yum! This deck is awesome! Very effective budget combo, and it's part of the best guild of Ravnica, the Golgari Swarm. +1.

Crap on a cracker, this deck ramps up fast, built it as a re-entry to mtg after 6 years out and didn't want to play any jank. This deck is pretty quick, has great chump blocking ability, and the bloodflows are just mean, and I'm running without the Corpsejacks and down 1 Blade, since I haven't found them yet. +1 all day.
