I am trying to put together a tournament viable deck with mostly innestrad block cards since I just began playing again. I am not opposed to buying some cards I just can't afford multiples of the expensive ones. Any ideas would be great, but I have most experience with red and green. Thanks for the help.
BU Zombies seems like a viable deck.
4 {Darkslick Shores}
4 {Drowned Catacomb}
14 {Swamp}
22 lands
4 {Diregraf Captain}
4 {Diregraf Ghoul}
2 {Fume Spitter}
4 {Geralf's Messenger}
4 {Gravecrawler}
4 {Phantasmal Image}
2 {Phyrexian Obliterator}
2 {Skirsdag High Priest}
26 creatures
3 {Geth's Verdict}
4 {Motorpod}
2 {Sword of Feast and Famine}
3 {Tragic Slip}
12 other spells
Sideboard
1 {Cemetery Reaper}
3 {Corrosive Gale}
3 {Distress}
2 {Nihil Spellbomb}
1 {Phyrexian Metamorph}
2 {Phyrexian Obliterator}
1 {Swamp}
2 {Sword of War and Peace}
15 sideboard cards

Dude did you read the OP's post at all? Lol you suggested a $300+ deck
I would suggest looking at the standard post about budget decks because you can make some very effective ones after looking at the suggestions there
I'm not saying to build this deck I'm just giving an example deck.
Well, thanks for the few tips. I checked out one other post so far but a lot of the cheaper decks seem to be based on Mirrodin block and 2012. I know these are the first sets to rotate out and was hoping to avoid purchasing too much from them. I did find a few ideas though. Any more is much appreciated.
Build a delver deck. I built one and the only rares are two {devil's play} mind you it's U/R
Just devils play? No snapcaster Mage? Or stromkirk nobles? Or Chandra's Phoenix ?
Nope and it works very well. But I also have a really limited budget as well
Ahhh, the only way I've ever run deliver is with snapcaster
I've never had that chance but the only thing I'd flash back is ponder
Yeah, that's usually the only thing I use with snapcaster
And honestly I'm not gonna spend the $20-25 to flash back a .25 cent common
That's a good point
Now if I pull a snapcaster.. I'd deff use it to flashback that common
Yeh

Wasn't that $0.25 common banned on certain formats?
Edit: wait, which common?
Idk
So, I think it's decided. I'mma try to make a delver. I think I may even have a snapcaster
Have you thought about getting an event deck and starting from there. They're pretty good to start with and you can try to adjust it as you go
I just picked up the red DKA one. Two {Inkmoth Nexus}es. 🎉🎉🎉
