One Card to Change Them All, One Card to Play Them

Commander / EDH Budget Casual Mono-Blue

"In the Beginning Richard Garfield created the Spells and the Lands. And he yea doth spoke, 'Let there be mana.' And there was. And yea he doth spoke, 'Let there be cards.' And there was. And yea he doth spoke, 'Let there be beings called planeswalkers.' And there was. And then Richard Garfield thought that there was one thing missing, one thing more he needed. And yea he doth spake: 'Let there be Magic.'"

Before anything else, let me get this straight. I know this deck is not legal because of its commander, but this deck isn't supposed to be for tournaments or anything. It's just supposed to be fun to play while aggravating all your opponents more than any other deck could.

This deck would probably be (if it was legal) one of the most efficient decks for its low, low price. It can go infinite almost instantly when it gets its commander out, considering that it can cast spells and play lands as almost any other cards.

These cards are some of the best cards to remember to cast other cards as because of their power level, the combos they can create, or because they're just fun to use.
I was going to have a tab for all the useful lands because Richard Garfield, Ph.D. says "cards" not "spells", but then I realized that there are so many useful lands that the person playing the deck could just play lands as what they want them to be.

Just some quick advice: if you use a combo that lockdowns both players spells, you can still play lands that can win you the game such as Inkmoth Nexus, Blinkmoth Nexus , or any other creature-land.
