Can anyone help me build a blue control deck under $100? Lookin for it to be standard also.
Did you see my "Evolving Precons" deck?
Yeah I'm not to interested in self mill or burning vengeance.. I'm looking for good old fashioned control with perhaps a splash of black
I would build a U/B control deck. Let me see..
Do you have any control staples? A la {Mana Leak}, {Consecrated Sphinx}, {Snapcaster Mage}?
Snappy is really important.
A of right now I have mana leak {cancel} {unsummon} and possibly a few others. While I like snapcaster, his price tag is too high for me to think about.. (budget of $100)
Shucks. You can always try to do the {Heartless Summoning} route..

Sub out the Duals.
{vapor snag}. Is a good one
I may have to bump up the price limit because I don't really see any good deck ideas for 100 bucks :(

No Heartless Summoning?
What about {Grand Architect}?
I don't have anything right now. I have to open more packs and get stuff. I haven't opened any since about a Month ago

I find it more cost effective to just by singles from TCGplayer.com. Why pay $4 a pack when you can pay bottom dollar prices online. Don't go to a card shop either cuz they are generally pricing singles at the high end. The online market is so saturated with suppliers that prices are very competitive.....in our favor. I just spent $25 the other day and bought over 50 cards. 2 {apocalypse hydras} 2 {primordial hydras} 4 {stormblood berserker} 4 {devil's play} 2 {ancient ziggurat} and that is naming a few
You're kidding.. That's really good

Look at my PureBlueSteel deck in casual. It was my Christmas present, bought 95% of the cards except {sword of feast and famine} lucky pull, and the total price was $160 and I bought a bunch of extra random cards as well.
{tezzeret, agent of bolas}, {myr superion}, {heartless summoning}, {vapor snag} {dismember} {vault skirge} {memnite} {mana leak} {spellskite}, there's the hundred dollars, fill in the rest with {go for the throat} and possibly discard magic and you should piss some people off.

I find the most cost effective way to play magic is to buy sets of commons/uncommons, 4x, on ebay. They go for like $30 and are a fantastic buy.

My only regret of buying these is not getting the "booster pack rush", though. Still, these let you build LOTS of decks.
Is there any way to build burning vengeance with out using snapcaster? If there is then I will prob end up building vengeance

I think they would it just would cost you a bunch extra for the shipping and insurance. For the fight price you can have things shipped anywhere
