Is there some interesting, multipurpose cards (cheap!) that I may have missed? I think I hit the obvious useful commons. What I'm looking for is stuff like Fleetfoot Panther / Winged coatl - solid, useful cards that aren't seen too often, that I may not know of. In a similar vein, I'm also looking for cheaper versions of expensive cards - ex: Duress vs Thoughtseize. Magic is expensive  | ||

But my friend has a Modern Devotion to Gary deck that's really nasty (and is building an affinity deck), so I'm trying to be at least semi-competitive. Just build Living End without the fetches, it's under $80, cheaper if you have the standard shocklands. | ||

Plus, i have an irrational hatred for cascade. Uh, there's really nothing too cheap. I don't know what's the point of building a semi competitive deck but having scattered cards that won't really build a deck to accomplish the former. | ||

Do you want to FNM competitively each week with only 1-2 deck choices or play a bunch of theme filled low tier decks? | ||

I don't really care for netdecking (I found zero satisfaction in winning with someone else's deck). I play with friends in between Burgers&Brew and SmashBros. We like to tinker with decks a lot. If we all had just one deck, and if we played the same match-ups all the time, magic would get boring for us fast. Plus, whenever I go to FNM I only draft/EDH. | ||

Umm, Affinity and a Devotion deck (which if nothing else is probably under-explored in Modern). So not sure where you are getting casual from in your original post. | ||

Kiora, the Crashing Wave 2GU 2 starting loyalty +1: Until your next turn, prevent all damage that would be dealt to and dealt by target permanent an opponent controls. -1: Draw a card. You may play an additional land this turn. -5: You get an emblem with "At the beginning of your end step, put a 9/9 blue Kraken creature token onto the battlefield." | ||

Seems like something more focused for EDH probably. I don't follow Standard so I comment on that, but if Ral Zerek isn't seeing play (is he?) then this probably won't either. | ||

Magic is expensive Terminate, Blightning, Putrefy, sundering growth, explore, farseek, goblin bushwhacker, goblin electromancer, goblin runeblaster. Blade Splicer, Wall of Omens, Solemn Simulacrum, acidic slime, oblivion ring, phyrexian metamorph, celestial purge, flashfreeze, timely reinforcements, arc trail, mana tithe, sunlance, tidehollow sculler, vampire nighthawk, gatekeeper of malakir, Kuldotha forgemaster, stormblood berserker, molten rain, leave no trace, wear//tear, tragic slip, smallpox, everflowing chalice, sphere of the suns, signets, condemn. I'm sure there's a lot more cheap cards, I just thought of ones that I remember playing myself in any format or seeing in deck lists. | ||
