This! [[Jhoria, Weatherlight Captain]] is a funtastic artifact storm commander, either in the eggs all-in storm-combo variant or in a heavy-on-stax controllish storm variant. I personally prefer the latter one, as it is super resilient and it’s just fun to throw down stax pieces and have them cantrip. And her loops are very fun to run through, too. [[Paradoxical Outcome]] being an MVC in the list with picking up all your rocks and replaying for value. And with artifact storm you don’t miss too much from black, as most of the good artifact tutors are all in blue anyway.

This here. The RC doesn’t ban for cEDH powerlevel issues, it bans for casual play. And he is a really unfun commander, when he is played with wheel effects. Sure, he can be interacted with, but that’s the whole thing: the RC looks at how fun an environment is, or how unfun it can get, when casual decks clash. Same reason why they unbanned Protean Hulk: it’s a fun card actually in casual, and can be handled quite good there, it just turns into a combo beast if you explicitely go for the combos he enables.

while Godo might be cheaper than others due to not needing a complex land base, I think it still isn’t really cheap. It needs all the expensive mana stuff and maybe even more than others (city of traitors for example). You need to get to 11 mana very fast. And even fetches can get interesting if you run scroll rack as another digging device to find more mana rocks. And it is a hail-mary suicide combo deck. You win or fail, and with the low amount of interaction you have, you probably fail more than win.

CVT (Chain Veil Teferi) can be built for around 1K€ and is much more solid and reliable. Grenzo Doomsday and Jhoira Storm both are around the same value. Ysan as far as I remember is quite a bit cheaper, though, so that definitely is a good budget option.
