I have been researching different deck archetypes as I want to get into Magic, more specifically Modern, and I finally found one that speaks to me. It is the deck I linked above, which revolves around purposely losing health in order to cast stronger creatures. My one issue is that it is a bit too high for my budget, and I wanted to know if someone could help me find good card alternatives to bring the deck cost down to 60 to 80 euros. Also, if this specific playstyle is visible in other decks, I would love to hear suggestions, as I am new to this and it has been kind of hard to research beginner decks in such a complicated subsection of Magic, that being Modern.

Enjoy the quarter finals of the mTG 93/94 X-points Dutch Open. In this top 8 Magic battle we have a four Mishra's Workshop Artifact deck take on a blue and white mid-range deck better known as Triple S. The Shops deck is piloted by Tristand and the Triple S deck is played by Martijn.

I have just started playing Modern with some of my friends and wanted help to improve my existing deck. My pod is purely beginners, so I don't need any extreme meta decks, and I would prefer not to spend more than 50 euros on these additional cards. I already have a preexisting deck that revolves around mono-green and utilizes a lot of big dudes, but I fear that it lacks the synergy needed for it to fully work together. The idea of a green/black deck that uses the graveyard as well as big dudes also seems interesting but that might require a little more work. I understand that these are all pretty vague ideas, especially in the Modern community, but disregarding that, I would really appreciate some help to tweak my deck, as it is kind of a mess. I will put the deck below, as well as the Moxfield link.

PS: i got some cards that are tecknicaly not legal for modern, but my friends dont mind if we use them.
