To reiterate, Mono-Blue Tempo is the best performing budget deck. However, it is centered around cards that will be rotating out when we lose the ninjas from Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty on August 2nd.

Great Video. I've been a long time magic player, but mostly casual, Commander, Multiplayer and Paper, so having a starting point is great, and Gruul Prowess already brought me some wins. Also i hope to reuse some of the cards for a Nadu Historic

Very helpful video! I can't decide between Simic Cookies and Gruul Prowess for my first deck. Which of the two tends to perform better in your opinion?

So glad to hear it was helpful :) Depends on what matchups you are experiencing on the ladder and your playstyle. Simic Cookies biggest weakness is Boros Convoke and is a tougher deck to pilot but arguably has a higher skill ceiling. Gruul Prowess can struggle against early spot removal from Mono-Black. The current meta is ~10% Boros Convoke and ~5% Mono-Black so that puts Gruul Prowess ahead in my opinion.

It will be sad to see it go, especially because it didn't get a whole lot of time in the sun

I just started like literally few days ago - can you recommend a deck that does not include MID, VOW, NEO, and SNC which will rotate out very shortly? I guess bad timing to start just before rotation...

Simic Cookies is a crowd favorite and although it is losing Dreamroot Cascade, Boseiju, and Otawara they are not critical to the deck and can just be replaced with basics. The rest of the deck isn't getting touched by rotation. The budget Selesnya Poison deck is almost entirely made from ONE and is likely to be relevant in some form. The Bant version centered around March of Swirling Mist and Venerated Rotpriest will be rotating so I'd hold off on upgrading. Boros Convoke is losing Voldaren Epicure but the rest of the shell is staying, outside of Eiganjo and Sokenzan which are also replaceable as basics. And Prowess is losing Kumano Faces Kakkazan, which will hurt but it still seems viable, and Play with Fire, which can be subbed out for shocks. I picked these archetypes specifically since I think they will be relevant after rotation in some form. Hope that helps. Let me know if you have any other questions :)

It's usually around September. This year it does look like August 2nd
