<p style="text-align: right;"><em><span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Mm&#039;menon, Uthros Exile" href="#" target="_blank">Mm&#039;menon, Uthros Exile</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> | Art by <a href="https://www.instagram.com/fajarekas/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fajareka Setiawan</a></em></p>
<p>When I first read over <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Mm&#039;menon, Uthros Exile" href="#" target="_blank">Mm&#039;menon, Uthros Exile</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, I didn’t immediately see its potential. However, the more I brewed around this Jellyfish, the more I discovered the strength hidden in those tentacles.</p>
<p>Getting a +1/+1 counter each time an artifact enters is a nice effect, but this deck has another layer to it that your opponents might not notice at first glance: it’s an artifact deck, and artifact decks can be broken.</p>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Mm&#039;menon, Uthros Exile"></div></div>
<p>As we go over this list, you’ll see that there’s plenty of ways to flood the board with trinkets that grow your commander. Whether it’s incrementally, or with big bursts of artifact tokens. Each time one of those permanents hits the board, you tick up the counters on Mm’menon, which could distract your foes from the fact that your board is covered in value pieces.</p>
<p>So join me, <a href="https://linktr.ee/pillowfortmtg" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tyler ‘Savesya’ Bucks</a>, as I go over this budget deck list for <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Mm&#039;menon, Uthros Exile" href="#" target="_blank">Mm&#039;menon, Uthros Exile</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>. You can pick up this entire list for less than $20 (based on TCGPlayer prices, since those closely resemble what your local game store might charge) and really does have the ability to snowball out of control.</p>
<p>Let’s not waste any more time and get right into it!</p>
<h2>Metallic Meat &amp; Potatoes</h2>
<p>Every deck needs card draw, ramp, and removal. While there are some spells in this list that work for a broad number of decks, here are a few synergistic inclusions that ensure your plan is moving forward as you gain more value.</p>
<h3>Card Advantage</h3>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Mask of Memory"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Inspired Tinkering"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Goggles of Night"></div></div>
<ul>
<li><span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Mask of Memory" href="#" target="_blank">Mask of Memory</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>: Not only does this come down and add a counter to Mm’menon, it also turns your combat damage into useful card selection.</li>
<li><span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Inspired Tinkering" href="#" target="_blank">Inspired Tinkering</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>: This is basically <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Jeska&#039;s Will" href="#" target="_blank">Jeska&#039;s Will</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> at home. Giving you access to three cards, as well as bringing out three artifacts, could make for an explosive turn!</li>
<li><span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Goggles of Night" href="#" target="_blank">Goggles of Night</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>: Hitting your opponents and getting an <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Opt" href="#" target="_blank">Opt</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>-like effect will help ensure that you're consistently drawing into your deck’s main game plan.</li>
</ul>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Reverse Engineer"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Cerebral Download"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="One with the Machine"></div></div>
<ul>
<li><span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Reverse Engineer" href="#" target="_blank">Reverse Engineer</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>: In this deck, there's a good chance your board will be full of artifacts, so you'll have plenty of help with casting this draw spell.</li>
<li><span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Cerebral Download" href="#" target="_blank">Cerebral Download</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>: This is one of the newer cards on the list, and it’s incredible for this strategy. It doesn't just add three cards to your hand; it ensures that you draw the best three off the top of your library.</li>
<li><span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="One with the Machine" href="#" target="_blank">One with the Machine</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>: There’s a good chance that this spell can be a full hand refill, especially when you have high mana value cards like <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Thought Monitor" href="#" target="_blank">Thought Monitor</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span> in this deck.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Mana Advantage</h3>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Dowsing Device"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Diamond Pick-Axe"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Coveted Jewel"></div></div>
<ul>
<li><span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Dowsing Device" href="#" target="_blank">Dowsing Device</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>: This card giving out haste and a power boost is solid for pushing your game plan forward, but it can also ramp you by flipping onto its land side relatively easily in this deck.</li>
<li><span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Diamond Pick-Axe" href="#" target="_blank">Diamond Pick-Axe</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>: Since this creates a Treasure token on attack, that means your commander will get another counter on it just before it smacks in for damage.</li>
<li><span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Coveted Jewel" href="#" target="_blank">Coveted Jewel</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>: This mana rock tends to be a little risky to run in a deck. However, since Mm’menon naturally has evasion, you're likely to get this right back if your opponents make it through your artifact defenses.</li>
</ul>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Brass&#039;s Bounty"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Hit the Mother Lode"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Hell to Pay"></div></div>
<ul>
<li><span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Brass&#039;s Bounty" href="#" target="_blank">Brass&#039;s Bounty</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>: Sure, this is a seven-mana spell, but making a Treasure for each land you control in the late game could allow you to take someone out with commander damage.</li>
<li><span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Hit the Mother Lode" href="#" target="_blank">Hit the Mother Lode</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>: Discover 10 will give you a free spell off the top of your library. It's okay if the card you hit isn’t too expensive, because those Treasures hitting your board is the real value you're looking for here.</li>
<li><span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Hell to Pay" href="#" target="_blank">Hell to Pay</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>: Having an effect like this, attached to removal, could be pivotal for closing out a game in this deck. If someone has a flying blocker, you can blow it up to make way for a big Jellyfish smack.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Disruption</h3>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Desculpting Blast"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Diversion Unit"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Brackish Blunder"></div></div>
<ul>
<li><span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Desculpting Blast" href="#" target="_blank">Desculpting Blast</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>: I love this new spell from <a href="https://edhrec.com/sets/eoe" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Edge of Eternities</em></a>, since you can bounce a pivotal permanent from your foes’ board, plus it can get you a Drone if that threat was attacking you.</li>
<li><span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Diversion Unit" href="#" target="_blank">Diversion Unit</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>: This Robot protects your board, attacks your opponents, and triggers your commander when it enters the field. Too bad it has such a sad little face...</li>
<li><span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Brackish Blunder" href="#" target="_blank">Brackish Blunder</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>: Getting rid of someone’s best creature, even if it’s temporary, can trip them up completely. Plus, that Map offers you another way to add a counter to Mm’menon.</li>
</ul>
<div class="edhrecp__cards"><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Ghirapur Aether Grid"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Waltz of Rage"></div><div class="edhrecp__card-container" name="Kazuul&#039;s Fury"></div></div>
<ul>
<li><span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Ghirapur Aether Grid" href="#" target="_blank">Ghirapur Aether Grid</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>: If your board is filled with artifacts, then having a way to convert them into damage could be a matter of life and death for you. Closing out a game by simply tapping down your whole board is the kind of sneaky win I like pulling off in Commander.</li>
<li><span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Waltz of Rage" href="#" target="_blank">Waltz of Rage</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>: Since your deck is centered around <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Mm&#039;menon, Uthros Exile" href="#" target="_blank">Mm&#039;menon, Uthros Exile</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>, there’s a good chance this spell decimates the table, while leaving your commander safe and sound to close out the game.</li>
<li><span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Kazuul&#039;s Fury" href="#" target="_blank">Kazuul&#039;s Fury</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>: you might get to the point where it’s just you, your opponent, and their big board of blockers. At the end of the day, flinging a Jellyfish at their face could be your best option to win that match.</li>
</ul>

<h2>In Closing</h2>
<p>Well, there you have it, a super budget friendly deck built around <span class="edhrecp__link"><a class="edhrecp__link-a" content="Mm&#039;menon, Uthros Exile" href="#" target="_blank">Mm&#039;menon, Uthros Exile</a><span class="edhrecp__link-image"></span></span>. Like I said before, this new legend didn’t immediately catch my attention, but hopefully that’s where some of its true power lies. When you sit down at a table and everyone shows off their commander, this Jellyfish won’t scare too many people before the game starts.</p>
<p>Once this deck starts rolling, it can be pretty difficult to slow down. Whether it’s making an army of artifact creature tokens or building up your commander’s punching power, when you move to combat, it’s going to be tense for the rest of the table.</p>
<p>So, let me know what you think. Did this list catch your interest, or is this one going to float under your radar? Let me know in the comments below.
