Finally Budget! | Pick Up These Commander Staples Now | Less Than $1 | Magic the Gathering 

Ok Richard

I remember one time my opponent tried to Exile my board while I was swinging out, so I dropped Settle the wreckage and got lands for them instead

Hey! Thats not budget though! lol

They were ripping you off. I've seen that card around a dollar for awhile

Depending on how crazy low the budget is this could actually be impactful.

@@michaelcollins4534 Especially if you have multiple decks and need multiple Sol Rings, that discount adds up in bulk. I'm tempted to buy a few, since I have a bunch of decks now, but since I can't really justify buying more precons lately (and not all of them have had Sol Ring anymore either), I still end up with a couple decks having to forego one of the biggest staples for all decks.

I would disagree that this has much to do with power creep. Nothing is touching sol ring in terms of pure value. And realistically there's only 1 better removal spell in the format than swords and path, namely deadly rollick. Some decks can run dispatch as a better swords/path but you still have to have metalcraft for it to work. Counterspell is still the best counterspell for your money. 2 blue, counter anything, $1, ez. There are a ton of really good counterspells out there and a lot of them are pretty cheap, but most are restricted in what they can counter or have a pretty hefty downside. Generous gift is still the best rate to destroy any permanent. That's why red has its version in chaos warp and green has its version in beast within. Darksteel mutation is still the single best way (outside of maybe imprisoned in the moon) to remove someone's access to their commander. These are powerhouse cards. The field is starting to catch up to some of them but they're still the best of the best.

It's a poor argument for people who have nothing else to complain about. In a 100 card deck, they have room for 36-38 lands, 40 if their deck is landfall themed. With 7-8 ramp, which is a generous amount, they still have 51-57 cards to make their deck unique. That's room for 1 commander, 25-30 creatures, and 20 other spells you want to fit your theme.

How about you instead Rule 0 unban cards you think are fine instead? I want to be able to sit down and play a game with a group of randoms
