Anyone got a cheap mantra decklist?

Need help to make a cheap Mantra list.

For the sake of maximizing the deck, what main cards do you already have and how much spirit do you have to spend into making it?

isn’t this oxymoronical?

Not that much actually. 2 mantras, 3x Abjudicators, 3 rokadopedas, and the Basic Songhai stuff(PF, Gotatsu, Oni, Spiral,Mana vortex). For spirit i`d say around 1200

No, it is my love for combo decks driving me to make this.

pretty sure there are more interactive combo decks out there than yet another mantra player.

tldr fuck mantra

A combo player has to try all kinds of combos, be they interactive or not

I don’t play mantra decks, so starting with @eurasianjay’s:

As I see it, this’ll be much tougher due to the lack of the legendary components missing (8gates and crescent spear).

You should absolutely have Onyx Bear Seal if you’re serious in having Songhai be one of your main factions. Though if you want to save a bit, you can go 2 copies rather than 3.

This is one I figured I’d post to try and help you with:

My approach is that Charki’s will allow you to have another potential way in getting your burst damage through (with Inner Focus). Dancing Blades is used as a supplement Cobra Strike; less general damage but better value mana card.

As far as I’m aware, Mantra is about control and patience until you have the proper hand.

Also note, since you don’t have spell boosting cards (8gates and crescent spear), ghost lightning is much weaker in this deck, so consider a 2 of, or none, and potential supplements if desired.

Pancakes posted a budget mantra list the other day:

Let people play whatever they want imo, don’t knock someone for enjoying themselves.

A question: Can I replace 1 onyx bear seal with eternity painter? Or should I leave 3 seals?

Depends, the meta is very volatile atm, Bear Seal was mainly for 2 types of targets, big minions you cannot remove via damage, such as Lava Slasher and Ironcliffe Guardian and an out to Magesworn, the latter of which is seeing very little play atm due to people experimenting.

My priority inclusion/craft would be Thunderbomb as that is probably the most powerful new Songhai card from the expansion and will likely be your best value spirit wise.

Let me voice my distaste for something i dont enjoy playing against imo. Sadly I don’t have any possibility to stop them from playing what they want. Yet.

Can’t fault that logic, well played.

Thanks for all the advice. My list currently looks like this

. I do see now where all the hate for this deck comes from(because I killed Faie at t4 with 18 dmg mantra combo, here`s the replay). Current score is 4-3
