Definitely some good stuff here. One thing I will put out there as a sort of extra precaution is to include Arcane Lighthouse, and Detection Tower. Doesn't really cost us anything as they only take the spot of a couple of basics, and provide the utility of being able to enchant hexproof targets.
Kaya, Bane of the Undead could be a great planeswalker to add as well, to get that Planeswalker protection value, as well as invalidating hex proof creatures.
I'm considering a planeswalker heavy variant of this deck since enchanted creatures cannot attack them either. I'll be running only a few utility creatures and quite a few strong PW that can each be a win condition if left unchecked.
The only difficulty with that route. Is having enough auras to enchant their stuff. As well as haste creatures, or blitz stuff. Then there is ward & hexproof to deal with too.
This was in the list for a while. I think it only got cut because I was prioritizing my opponents attacking each other, and didn't think to buff my creatures.
I would add either Esior, Wardwing Familiar (for more protection) or Sakashima of a Thousand Faces (just so we have another Eriette) as partners. Also they both give access to some interesting auras. Not to mention that with Sakashima you can copy either him or Eriette with blue spells and not have to wory about the legend rule.
Why are you buffing the opponents creatures with zero draw back? You do realize they can kill your commander then smack you in the face? Why not simple things like spiritual link? That card literally offers no benefit to them and gains you life when they attack so if they hit you its no damage or if they hit someone else you gain life
I was heavily debating going pacifism tribal. All/majority of auras are pacifism like spells. No one attacks/blocks. Be like Oprah - ur a hippie, ur a hippie, ALL u hippies!
I like the pacifism effects that also shut off activated abilities. Over just pacifism only effects. I used petrify on a friend's sevala the other day. He removed it (for a turn). Then I replayed it from the graveyard with lurris, & locked down his commander for the rest of the game. After killing his enchantment removal p.w. he had out.
Unfortunately, that's been the average for decks these days. Budget decks are absolutely a thing, but you can do alot of cuts to the manabase to make the price drop substantially.
What is not realistic is you expecting someone to take everyone's budget in to account. Just take out whatever you can't afford and sub in cards you can. Common sense.
Most decks average $300-800. Unless you build budget. Which is less than $100. I'm sure if you exclude the lands here. You can build a solid eriette with just $50-100. Doing pacifism, and other similar auras. It's the lands that'll cost ya a bit. My advice is to build low powered. Then slowly build it up with bigger better cards over a couple of months.
interesting fact with this deck (as I'm trying to build it myself) Even tho you cast auras on enemy creatures you still control them, which means that aures like All that Glitters and Ethereal Armor are based on your set of enchantments and/or artifacts(said in the video). it's important to note that a lot of auras can give you the upper hand even when you cast them on enemy creatures. For example, Ordeal of Heliod says "When you sacrifice Ordeal of Heliod you gain 10 life", This actually means that you the caster gain the life and not the controller of the creature I hope this helps with the building of your guys decks as it changed mine a lot

Glaring Spotlight is also a nice hexproof ignorer
Bloodthirsty blade pairs well with artificers hex to give yourself cheap repeatable removal
I think that Crown of the Ages would be an interesting card in this deck. I'd also like to say that Necrotic Plague and/or Tacklemaggot might be fun
This is even better than goad

I’m 100% making this deck lol
Vampiric link for some cheap life gain redundancy.
If your curve is gonna be that low, you should definitely throw in a Bolas's Citadel.
reminds me of Lynde
Helm of the gods?

How? She doesn't have partner
Unless you are doing esper this doesn't work. This is an orzhov commander. No blue.
I think polluted bond
Im going lots of cheap auras and a lot of extort muahahhaha

you lost me at "opponentses"
800$ dol deck? Can't you create a realistic one?
