This channel single-handedly convinced me to try purchasing cards online to make a commander deck rather than just cobbling things from my collection after seeing how cheaply you could make effective decks. Your videos are concise, communicate the point well, and provide a wealth of ideas and knowledge on how to build a cheap and effective deck. And to be frank, your voice is nice to listen to. That all out of the way, would love to see a deck built around Niv-Mizzet, either Firemind or Parun, that doesn’t focus on infinite loops. I’ve loved playing with high-draw-yield decks and Niv-Mizzet is perfect for that, but I haven’t found any success with the deck outside of the one infinite combo I can afford(and frankly playing with infinite combos feels gross to me in non-cEDH). I understand if you don’t take requests/it doesn’t sound interesting, but just thought I’d throw my hat in the ring. Thank you for the content and cheers to the next video.
For 1 more mana fog can be replaced with blessed respite for better versatility against graveyard decks or even shuffling our grave into our deck. Windshaper Planetar is a good angel with flash that can be a fog or kill an opponent if there are enough creatures swinging. Draw power is better than scrying or milling as A) sigarda can be removed as she herself has no protection, B) seeing more cards is still seeing more cards. Looking at the top should be a supplement rather than a replacement for card draw. Since you are milling, try playing “Pair o’ lost dice” from unfinity (legal in commander). It lets you roll 2 6-sided dice and get cards from your grave up the the total mana value of the number rolled on the dice combined (at instant speed). So any lands milled are free to pick up and you’re guaranteed to pick up your swords to plowshares or path to exile.
On a similar note as with your Blanka deck - Terramorphic expanse and Evolving wilds are not really good fits. You are probably better off running just basics in their place, Cabaretti Courtyard is almost strictly better and any dual tapland is better than that anyway since you have no landfall triggers and no way to utilize lands in your graveyard.
Terraforming and Evolving are kinda fitting (although I am not a big fan of taplands anyways tbh.) But here they fullfill the purpose of shuffling away unwanted cards on top for Sigarda. Courtyard cannot be saved up for later when needed.

More budget decks? Yes please. 😀
Would love to see your take on a Elas il-Kor, Sadistic Pilgrim deck!
