so from the end of june (and a test run mid june) my local FNM is runnung block constructed SOMM. it's gonna be exciting with big cards like stoneforge, jace, and the titans missing. I've got a deck brewing but I'd love to see what decks you guys at tappedout could come up with to give me a rough idea of what combos and archtypes to look out for.I'd really appreciate any input you guys could give me :)I expect to see myr decks, red koth wins, U/W venser control, tezz decks, golems and mono-black.

that's the kind of deck I'm expecting, and I'm definately expecting bierthing pod decks because people at my local store have been hoarding them! I'll post my deck soon.

I'd go with Tempered Steel , it's simply a house in the format, here's my deck (scratch the Steel Overseer s for Spellskite or just Memnite s or something)

Oh and this rage extractor deck comes close (don't know if it's in your budget though):

Lol, another version of rage extraction, mine this time:
deck:moltensteel-panther-extraction
(still does have dual lands and jace beleren, but the duals aren't necessary)

pritty good. you could swap the dual lands over and replace baby jace with blue suns zenith. again, I expect to see an extractor deck or two. i don't really have a budget to be honest, if I get committed to a deck idea I tend to go for it. never splashed out on daddy jace yet though.

My main deck (Myr Forge) is nearly all Scars block. A few modifications can be made.
Also consider a deck built around Birthing Pod . I have a mono green one (which I will share with you).
