Budget competitive modern

[Teysa karlov]

My 8 rack doesn't have bob or planeswalkers. Probably better with them but does fine without.

Well that's the thing Bob and Lili make the deck that much better.

I've seen budget 8 racks win mtg dailies

Goblins is cheap. And 8 rack can be cheap. {neceogen mists} is a cheap alternative to liliana and {phyrexian arena} is a cheaper alternative to dark confidant. Thoughtseize can be replaced by inquisition or even duress if you really want to go budget. The only thing that is not replaceable though is {ensnaring bridge}. My 8 rack deck has the playset of ensnaring bridge costing significantly more than the rest of the deck combined.

Even then, if the mos expensive playset is $80 total, you're still running a very budgety deck.

I am running a very budgety deck. I even play {killing wave} instead of {damnation}. The deck is by no means perfect but it has served me well. I have never lost more than one round in a modern event with it. It's currently mono black but with {urborg, tomb of yawgmoth} being reprinted I'm going to stick it and a few {godless shrine}s and {isolated chapel}s in there so I can board a few {revoke existence} and {banishing light} style effects, as the deck is super weak to enchantments.
