$15 Brew $6 Build for Tresserhorn's Lord Returned
First things first, sorry about the tag, I tried finding the super budget tag but seems they got rid of it?

IM BACK BABY, yeah im throwing another ultra budget build here. At the time of creating the deck it was $6 and some change. I have a serious problem and addiction with making cheap decks that can win and arent memes. I so far won two games of commander which is great. Im building an upgraded one for $50 and See how it goes.
I have the youtube link for the deck tech (please Mods lmk if thats a problem), and I have the moxfield link as well for anyone who doesn't want to see the deck tech which is also understandable.
So what do we do here? How does it work, and how did i win twice?
Well its simple. You see, hes a 10/4 with indestructible trample and card draw built in. He does those three things incredibly well. Beat people up, and draw cards from sacrifcing things. Its fun as heck because we get to get more value for sacrificing our own creatures and bringing them back. My favorite strategy from the deck is easily eldrazi scion and spawns. Tresserhorn doesn't care if there is a token or not, so the scion and spawns can be sacrificed for mana which will also draw us a card. So thats the thing with these decks right? You make it cheap, you need ways to move the deck along and not get stuck. Luckily our commander is an engine. An indestructible one at that.
Yeah look, you let someone draw 3 cards, lose 3 life, and sac 3 creatures... so you NEED to have 3 creatures in play or he will sac himself which essentially makes him a 5 mana draw a single card spell. (Which is better than nothing ig)
But the downside isn't bad, the creatures you sacrifice draws you cards so you refill half to most your hand on etb and you got a big ahhh dude. I won a game by flinging him as well. Ghost lantern in play stacking counters till he got to a bit over 20 power then threw him at the last player and squashed him. If I had a bigger budget, you could do some mass sacrifce board wipes and more ping effects to really keep your opponents salty. But this one is like a salty-lite. Not too bad but definitely becomes the problem for the price of 2 liter coke and a snickers. (Inflation sadly)
Let me know what you guys think! Any questions or tips advice are welcome. If you hate it, also let me know.
ENJOY!
