Pouring over lists from this weekend I was impressed that many people achieved results with cheaper lists that didn't require planeswalkers or too many mythics, etc. I rarely will get to play with the deck but I'm considering putting together a couple decks. I've posted links below and am interested in your thoughts on each regarding how they'll fair against what you expect to face:
List I'm considering trying to trade some of my standard stuff for in order to build:

Suggestions on what to replace the 3 Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet in the sideboardwith? When are they needed?

Thoughts/suggestions?
Have any other cheap lists I missed?
I don't really want to pick up any card that is double digits and preferably not over like $6. I do own CoCo and 2 Jace VP but I don't want to pick up any E Moon cards that are high right now or any planeswalkers or anything ideally.
Maybe I'll build the U/G control, mono white weenie, and 1 U/R deck
Thanks!
