This deck is at the top end of what I would spend on cards, and some like Lorien Revealed and Time Stretch where chosen because I already own them. I might want to cut down on the price, so budget alternatives would welcome.

The goal is to put down permanents that reward me for drawing a stupid amount of cards. The main wincons are mill effects like psychic corrosion and sphynix’s tutelage, damage effects like nivmizzet, along with life gain effects and mass token creature creation. The idea is that once I get my commander out, the game ends a few turns

I tried build the deck so I can survive until I can cast my commander, with some protection provided by the counter spells, but I feel like that might be a weak part of the deck.
