So I just realized I don't have any standard deck! I don't really know what to make though!
So I wanted to ask you guys what I should make. The only things I don't want to do are:
-Aggro (too straightforward)
-Combo (in standard all combo decks are way too weak IMO)
So yeah. Help?

IMO I like BWR midrange, BW midrange, esper control and GR monsters. Those are fun (for me atleast)
I like to find a card that I really like, and then find a deck for it. Or just make a weird tribal deck. Or a mazes end deck. ;) What's your favorite card in standard? Maybe you could figure that out, then either build a deck around it or with it.

What you said! :D I liked nay loved {Wild Beastmaster} so I built a deck around her and it turned out great so find a card you like and build!
Thanks for suggestions, I just don't like Aggro. I'll probably make a Maze's Ebd deck.
No make a competitive one maybe like a UG controlly midrange deck using {Prophit of Kruphox}

It'd revolve around {Prophet of Kruphox} and that's like $1.50. And then maybe throw in some ramp like mystics or caryatids and then {Primeval Boutny} and {Sylvan Primordial} all of which except for Carytaid are pretty cheap

Okay, thanks!
No problem! (Also maybe add some counter magic in there)
So I'm thinking {G}{U} midrange/flash or {W}{U}{R} skies. Which is better on a budget?
I'd say GU bc Murica eventually you're going to want Verdicts and Sphinx

Woth America skies?
Lol missed the skies part my bad. Then idk build your decks on tapped out and see how much they'd be
Esper control... It's the best out there.

Not budgeted enough, sadly :-\
I build an izzet deck that is budget friendly...haven't had a chance to test it yet thou lol
Build a Red/Black Aggro. It's cheap and it kicks Esper's tush.

I don't like mindless Aggro like that :-\ I'm very picky, and don't you know it.
It's not mindless o_O At least mine isn't.
But I guess that's just the chaotic side of me talking :)
Nevertheless, if you're building to compete, then U/G isn't the way to go. American maybe, depending on the meta where you play.

Heavy control/tokens.
I'm honestly not sure :(
I would totes go with American. At least then, even if you can't afford {Sphinx's Revelation}, you can still use fun stuff like {Detention Sphere} (so much yes!) and {Ethereal Armor}.

I'm not going down that path, lol- my meta is way over prepared for that.

Then what about Bant auras? Run the scout, favored hoplite etc and beat them to death haha. Aqueous form gets ya through and counts toward ethereal armor. Not too mindless.

What's turbo fog?
Run all the gates and then any card that prevents damage. I.E. {Druid's Deliverance} {fog} etc. and just win by grabbing all the gates.
