Youll then have an excellent cheap flash removal spell that combines very well with Up the Beanstalk

I would regularly see casual Niv-Mizzet Reborn decks hit the field and only flop into one or two cards that they'd be able to keep

The land base is another easy way to reduce the cost of Commander decks right now, as so many lands have steadily risen in price over the last few years that if you want to run mostly non-basics, it's going to take up a huge portion of your budget.

If theres a solid two drop, like a 1/3 that Scries when you flash in your Gull, then getting extra value off of Vexing Gull is easy

That works very well with the massive loyalty gain from the death-ery

Upgrading: There really aren't any Defender Tribal cards left outside of my sample budget list except for Shield Sphere, which is great but certainly not worth the current $10 USD price
