With Jeff out this week, Duncan and Sloan take the reins to explore a growing concern in the EDH community—is budget Commander dead? They break down what "budget" really means in 2025, the challenges of staying competitive on a limited wallet, and whether powerful, affordable decks are still possible. The episode also dives into a rules brain-twister: does casting a copy of a spell actually count as casting? Plus, they sneak in a Card of the Day that proves you don’t have to spend big to make a big impact.
