This deck is the result of me wanting a budget EDH deck that was better than the premade decks but still under a very strict budget. I knew that I needed to play a mono-colored deck to keep it budget and have a stable manabase at the same time. I was drawn to a control strategy because my Modern deck has a very aggro-midrange kind of strategy. Talrand, Sky Summoner came to me as a commander who could provide excellent value while simultaneously being a wincon for a deck with only two creatures.
