Input welcome! Check out my other commander decks. This one is actually on paper.

Challenge: Spend almost no money (build from collection)

Drawing not important, so cut from the deck (not including cantrips, mostly useful for top-of-deck manipulation)

The deck is super synergistic. Druidic Satchel ramps me so good and removes frustrating topdeck lands. Arcane Melee is a bomb, and Crystal Ball is incredibly useful. Galvanoth is incredible, and Omen Machine ruins everyone's day but mine.
