** PLAY VIDEO TO MAXIMIZE YOUR DECK VIEWING EXPERIENCE **

By request from SuneEnough, here is my take on Jhoira of the Ghitu.

In my ongoing endeavor to bring frugality to Commander, each card in this deck is under $2 and the whole deck is under $40 (not including the commander). If you like what you see, UPVOTE! or you can check out all my other $40 budget decks. If you see some areas of improvement, let me know what you'd change. Just make sure all suggested cards are under $2.

The Strategy

1) Get Jhoira of the Ghitu on the battlefield with protection in the form of counters or Swiftfoot Boots

2) Suspend a mass removal spell immediately followed by some big beaters

3) Laugh at your opponents scooping when they resolve

The Win Cons

1) Beaters like Artisan of Kozilek or Desolation Twin

2) Other people's beaters from Clone Legion or Scrambleverse

3) Opponent submission at a game reset from Decree of Annihilation or Obliterate
