"No Graham, cats, always cats!"

-Kathleen DeVere of Friday Nights

This is my VERY first EKH deck (Elder Kitty Highlander)! Because of my n00biness I need a ton of suggestions - but make em' budget!

Seeing how this is a Kemba deck, I went for voltron theme and a cat tribal sub-theme.

What to Wear (equipments) Show

Argentum Armor: This not only pumps our creatures MASSIVELY, but Vindicates every time we attack with it!

Darksteel Axe: While this might not be the best equipment we have, it's nice to have an equipment that will always stick around.

Darksteel Plate: Indestructible kitty commander?? Yes please!!

Fireshrieker: Just gives our creature doublestrike, nothing all that special.

Stoneforge Masterwork: There are a LOT more cats in this deck than you think, I've seen this thing give our Kemba +10/+10 before! I never thought this would be that good, but it is!

Konda's Banner: Equip this to Kemba and you have a 4/4 cat army!

Loxodon Warhammer: Finally! My favorite equipment in the deck! +3/+0 is okay, lifelink is pretty good, then TRAMPLE makes this over the top! Very, very good card.

Masterwork of Ingenuity: I love how this can be anything. We need to protect our guys? Make this a Swiftfoot Boots and you're good!

Skullclamp: this is a no-brainier for any commander/edh deck. Card draw, pump, all in one package!

Strata Scythe: Because we have a TON of Plains in this deck, we're able to pump our guys a lot with this.

Swiftfoot Boots: Because this deck likes to target our creatures with stuff, this is a strictly better Lightning Greaves.

Sword of the Animist: One of our main sources of ramp. This has pretty decent synergy with Strata Scythe

Sword of Vengeance: Gives our guy ALL the abilities! Vigilance, first strike, haste, AND trample. Oh, did I say this pumps our guy pretty decently as well? Insane card, especially in this deck!

Trailblazer's Boots: I seriously believe this should be a staple in every commander deck. It basically says "Equipped creature gets unblockable"

Tutors Show

Open the Armory: Something new I'm trying out in this deck, and it seems okay. What I like about it is that it can fetch auras too, so we can get something like Cage of Hands if we're in a sticky situation.

Steelshaper's Gift: This card is the budget Enlightened Tutor for this deck. Seeing as it's not entirely necessary to fetch auras, we don't mind the fact that it's only equipments.

Stonehewer Giant: This card is our budget Stoneforge Mystic. I like that it has vigilance, because we're then able to swing and tutor on the same turn.

Taj-Nar Swordsmith: While this guy isn't amazing, you can fetch or something cheap like Konda's Banner or Trailblazer's Boots

Removal Show

Afterlife: Instant speed removal. The 1/1 flyer isn't that much of a drawback.

Cage of Hands: While it might look like a strictly worse Pacifism, because of the bounce ability it gives us some sweet card advantage!

Condemn: Budget Path to Exile. The life gain usually won't matter, the one mana CMC makes up for it.

Crib Swap: In my opinion, this is a better Afterlife. What I prefer about this is that it isn't a flier. But against slivers this is pretty bad.

Detainment Spell: One mana to turn off all their abilities? Yes please!!

Dispatch: Most of the game this is just Path to Exile with out the draw back.

Dispense Justice: Wow, just wow. Sacing two creatures for 3 mana?!?!?! MADNESS!

Faith's Fetters: Remember, this said permanent, not creature. That makes this go from zero to hero!

Immolating Glare: Kills basically every creature.

Return to Dust: This can exile up to TWO enchantments and/or artifacts?!?!

Revoke Existence: Just good enchantment/artifact removal.

Swords to Plowshares: Do I need to even explain this one?

Beaters Show

Battlegrace Angel: Because the strategy of this deck is to suit up one guy and swing with with them, giving them +1/+1 and lifelink is a pretty good deal. Also good guy to swing in with.

Deathless Angel: Seeing how everyone will probably target our Kemba or one of our beaters, we have to protect it. Also a 5/7 flying body is good to beat in with.

Victory's Herald: Just a good body to beat in with. The main reason we're running this is because it gives all our creatures lifelink. I mean, we have so many cat tokens that this life gain could actually win us the game. Yeah, that good.

Artifact Recursion Show

Auriok Survivors: People will definitely target our equipments on the board, so getting them back is vital! I also like the 4/6 body on him.

Remember the Fallen: Just decent recursion.

Sun Titan: C'mon, it's Sun Titan. Do I HAVE to explain this?

Nahiri, the Lithomancer: People will definitely target our equipments on the board, so getting them back is vital!

Lords Show

Stone Haven Outfitter: A worthy, fashionable, equipment lord.

Raksha Golden Cub: The Lord of all cats! Kemba and her Golden Cub shall rule ALL the cats!

True Conviction: While I wouldn't call it a "lord", it is a bonus to all our creatures, so I'm going to put it in.

Mana Accelerants Show

Sol Ring: Sol Ring.

Darksteel Ingot: While we don't need the fixing, it's indestructible mana, so...

Worn Powerstone: Not that good, but mana so...

Oreskos Explorer: Mana screwed? Not for long...

Gift of Estates: Mana screwed? Not for long... x2

Expedition Map:Mana screwed? Not for long... x3

Everflowing Chalice: Honestly, this is just a budget option. Run something like Thran Dynamo if you have more money.

Sword of the Animist: ALL THE RAMPPP

Other Instants/Sorceries Show

Catastrophe: SWEET boardwipe. I like the choice you have when you play this.

Mass Calcify: This basically reads: "Every creature except your's dies."

White Sun's Zenith: ALL THE 2/2 CATSSSSS

Other Creatures Show

Whitemane Lion: Flicker Cat.

Sunspear Shikari: First Strike Lifelink Cat.

Shattered Angel: I like to call this guy "Landgain Angel". 3 life off our opponent's lands? In multiplayer, you could gain a LOT of life with this.

Brass Squire: Who doesn't love equip costs?

Puresteel Paladin: You have not played magic if you wonder why I'm running this.

Leonin Abunas: HEXPR00F EQUIPMEMTS? On a serious note, this guy is even better when equipped with Darksteel Plate.

Jazal Goldmane: We have so many cat tokens that the pump ability is really good.

Kor Sanctifiers: ALL THE REMOVALS.

This description took me several days to finish, and I'm really hungry writing this. Apologies for spelling/grammar mistakes, it's kinda late. Thanks for reading, sorry for all the spoiler blocks :P. +1 If you like it, and any and all suggestions are appreciated (but they must be budget)!
