Affordable Decks for the Upcoming Singapore Open

Wah, good question! I just built a budget Mono-Red deck for around $70 SGD using some cards from Flagship Games. I included cheap staples like Lightning Bolt and some good burn spells. I think it can do decently at the Open! Plus, I got to play with my friends in my local playgroup and they were impressed. You can also look out for some second-hand cards from Grey Ogre Games, they have those weekly sales sometimes!

Aiyoh, if you’re looking for control, check out those low-cost counterspells like Negate and Dive Down. I built a budget Azorius Control deck for under $90 SGD! You can find some good deals at Grey Ogre during their Friday night events. If you can get to the Malaysia Championships, it’d be good to test it out there too. A bit tricky with the meta here in SEA, must be ready for those aggro decks!

I think brewing budget decks is a great way to enjoy the game without burning a hole in your pocket. Just make sure to stay updated on the meta; I see a lot of players using card combos that can be effective but cheap. Like, during this weather kinda hot, sometimes I feel like playing something chill and relaxed, like a mid-range deck with some cool synergies. Let’s keep sharing our builds, can’t wait to see what everyone comes up with for the Open!

Hey there! Love to see the enthusiasm for budget brewing! For a Mono-Red deck, you might want to look at cards like Lightning Strike and Goblin Guide. They’re pretty solid and won’t kill your wallet too much. I’ve seen some good deals at Card Titan and they often have promos for budget players. Also, don’t forget about the local meta—aggro is super popular here, so having some cheap burn spells can really help you finish games quickly. If you’re thinking of a control deck, maybe try adding cards like Essence Scatter and some cheap creatures that can help you block. It's great to meet up with fellow players at places like The Card Game Society, where we can share ideas and test out our decks. Let’s keep this conversation going, can’t wait to see what you come up with for the Open! Cheers!

The weather can be crazy hot here, so keeping it fast-paced with aggressive creatures is a good idea. You might also want to consider some cheap threats like Torbran, Thane of Red Fell if you can snag one on sale. For control, you can look at cards like Negate and some low-cost blockers to help you stall until you can turn the tide.
