My first topic MTGNexus, any formatting tips are welcome! :)
Decklist
Approximate Total Cost:

Endless One - Amazing mana sink to make huge creatures!

Adventurous Impulse - Can get rid of the top 3 cards if we are still looking for Tron but also searches for creatures

Altar of Shadows - Some removal incase we run into some huge creatures we just can't get around because we aren't running Walking Ballista

Ancient Stirrings - 1 mana searching for land but can also search for creatures

Elvish Reclaimer - Some more land searching

Chromatic Sphere - Saves us some mulligan and draws us a card

Sylvan Scrying - Some amazing land searching for our deck

Elvish Rejuvenator - A really good budget card for land searching

Steel Hellkite - Excellent removal for our deck, and is flying with a mana sink

Meteor Golem - Some more removal!

Myr Battlesphere - Excellent creature that comes with 1/1 chump blockers if needed

Ulamog's Crusher - If not dealt with this will end the game very quickly

Sundering Titan - 8 mana 7/10 and comes with some land removal

Artisan of Kozilek - Annihilator, and comes with bringing back our creatures. This goes real good with Sundering Titan in case it dies

A lot of good Tron cards are coming in ELD and will update my list soon :grin:
Please post any thought and tips!

Darn, MTGNexus prices off by a bit :mad:
In truth, this deck cost around $30-$50 on TCGplayer from when I last checked

Also, I know one obvious improvement is Expedition Map, but it is five dollars! FIVE WHOLE DOLLARS! xD

nice budget deck. World Breaker might be a good addition, the fact that it exiles artifacts is useful since Whirza decks can get back their artifacts from the yard.

Also the new stonecoil serpent from eld is an upgrade to Endless One.

Yup was planning on adding stonecoil! also might add that one card that is basically ancient stirrings for free if I haven't played a land yet I think. And world breaker is only $2.8 so it could be a nice edition!
Thanks :D

you're welcome. World Breaker is also a resilient threat mid-late game, as it can keep coming back from the yard.. and each time it comes into play, it exiles something on the opponent's side. :grin:

That build looks very fun :)

And yes, definitely add a World Breaker or two! Very good card and it's budget friendly too

It looks like a generally playable build of tron, but I would make one suggestion. -2 altar of shadows, +2 scour from existence. Most of the time you won't be able to justify 14 mana to kill a creature no matter how big it is. Scour from existence at least deals with any threat permanently.
