Budget Replacements for Rhystic Study | Broken Commander Card | EDH | Magic the Gathering

[@OfficialMaddeck]

There is one cost 3 blue enchantment called "Insight", and it reads: "Whenever an opponent casts a green spell, you draw a card." Let me tell you, there is always a high chance of facing green players, specially in casual, "Insight" is insane good and budget.

[@alexthefae]

In certain play groups yea i can see that. Id love to see a good color shift commander precon made for all the old color specific cards

[@Trance2400]

Insight is a criminally underrated card, you don't even need to ask "do you pay the 1?".

[@Elmarias777]

Combine with painters servant for super effect. Of course, that is not a budget card...

[@sylvainlectard7377]

Insight is in my humble opinion the closest thing to Rhystic.

[@fsfreturns5242]

In Azorius, there's Isperia Supreme Judge who draws you cards when you or a planeswalker you control gets attacked by a creature. There's also the Council of Four, who draws you a card whenever an opponent draws their second card each turn. One mono-blue option worth mentionning is Verity Circle, which draws you cards whenever an opponent's creature gets tapped but is not attacking (for example, tapping a Llanowar Elf for mana).

[@Macwylee]

Do you pay the one?

[@josereinoso6163]

Great video for budget players. Also, it will be great to hear budget option for doubling season and/or other more expensive cards like that one.

[@alexthefae]

Thank u been needing a video like this i own only 1 rhystic study.

[@red_spect3r833]

Ghostly Pilferer is one of my favorites

[@thumbwrestler12]

Great video I enjoy seeing the budget options always going with proxies first tho

[@CoreZer0]

So i've been into magic since the late 90s and so has my wife. Never thought to look in her old bulk magic cards. She had told me along time ago it was all bulk commons and she pulled all the old rares, so I kind of forgot about it. Just last week I decided to go through them, just to see what type of old counter spells she had. Ended up with 5 NM Rhystic Study along with a slew of other gems that are ripe for commander play. Don't sleep on your old bulk cards.

[@danieldragotti2608]

Theres wiretapping from new caperna. Accualy theres like a dozen bugget cards from there that are randomly really strong but never used

[@benjaminwileman4771]

Ghostly pilferer triggers on opponent commander casting! Huge early game.

[@Fighting_irish493]

Um budget wise there is curious obsession and the new upgrade version take flight which gives your creature +1 in power it gives the creature flying and when the creature attacks you draw a card also if your will to spend the money which is probably more then a copy of Rystic study there is The one ring which to be honest is probably more powerful then rystic study but it’s also more expensive but the upside is that you can up it in any deck because it’s a colourless artifact

[@ZachtheUnbowed]

I’m a big fan of Monastery Siege as a budget replacement to rhystic study!

[@Zumteifl]

One of my absolute favorites is Curse of Verbosity. It encourages Players to attack and draws cards.

[@blujay1294]

Very funny that this was uploaded the day I unpack my own enchanting tales rhystic study LMFAO. Great vid as always though!

[@vjredline9242]

I think some other notable mentions are Keep Watch, Rowdy Research, and Mass Appeal (for tribal). Rowdy can possibly net 3 draws for 1-2 mana, and the other two on the high end can draw 4+ for 3 mana

[@davidmanabat9528]

Give some love for Verity Circle!

[@ZMLsavage]

Totally! I've found with so many mana dorks and tap abilities out there this card is a great budget rhystic!

[@MrMarson123456]

I was literally just looking for cheap blue enchantments that draw cards. this is perfect.

[@TheCommandersQuarters]

Glad I could help!

[@GrimSoulBanisher]

Not blue, but Mentor of the Meek can really put in work.

[@SheepinWolvesCloth]

I missed Kindred Discovery and Titan of Littjara, allstars in my Rukarumel deck

[@gilliganallmighty3]

If there were a card that does even close to whar Rhystic Study does, which you actually touched on in this video, they would be and are ran along side it.

[@nobodyshome6792]

Weird, it made it into every single blue deck when it was first printed in Prophecy. It was utilized heavily in control decks to help refill hands. Also. We define budget very differently. Under a dollar is very restrictive. (I should have pointed this out long ago....)

[@bradbeeler5022]

Reparations: (1WB Enchantment) whenever an opponent casts a spell targeting you or a creature you control you may draw a card. Rare from Mirage. 2-3 dollars

[@codyfaught3606]

You are doing the lords work!

[@Michael-s9b1q]

I know it's just over a dollar but no love for the old enchantment Insight?

[@greymane1994]

There are no viable replacements for Rhystic Study. It’s good because it comes down early, T2 if you island Sol Ring, and it’s powerful. If you cannot afford Rhystic Study, proxy it. If you don’t want to proxy it because you want to play at tourneys, then you should probably just buy it. It’s not that expensive.

[@zeroisnine]

If your cEDH, then many tourney's allow proxies

[@Almighty_Mage]

This was my thought before clicking the video. Buy it, proxy it, or move on but you can’t replace it.

[@jeremybonhomme5525]

Mystic remora comes earlier😊

[@christhompson8003]

Ghostly pilferer also include the command zone

[@marceloquejinho]

I'm really a fan of Kumena's Awakening. But once I played it and had to eat every removal on the game. It became a mini game for my opponents to no let me Ascend. 😂😂😂 Monastery Siege is also cheap, has the same CMC than Rhystic Study, and has a Ward option if you don't need it. Sure, it is not perfect because it forced you to discard, but I take it.

[@XontheBox]

You can’t be spilling the beans about mystic remora it’s my treasure

[@TimIce-s4n]

Curse of verbosity creates easy repeatable card draw that can draw you 3 cards a turn and two opponents can potentially draw 1 card each.

[@YanuHFS]

So it's a video of every blue draw enchantment?

[@xuem19]

I find Mystic Remora superior to Rhystic Study; I'd rather draw cards than tax my opponents, and I can get it back from the graveyard if the upkeep costs get too high.

[@ehegger]

Love mystic remora

[@nathanpavolko5861]

Come on now, you missed the most obvious budget version of rhystic study that's only 1 dollar. That card is Insight. Green is such a popular color you're bound to draw a bunch of cards and it's off cast.

[@Dragon13527980]

wow i have like 10 mystic remoras

[@russofrancescols180]

Summary: there is any affordable option. Or you spent 30 bucks or better to think about something else....😢

[@wolfie766]

You gonna pay 1?

[@GrixisCactus]

You feeling 100%? You look a little tired

[@MCKICKZ]

Or.. don't play RS..

[@yanncatt]

Can we have more videos like this?
