Big Threat Multi Player Deck Help

{"ops":[{"insert":"Hello again everyone!\n\nI have been looking for a good 2-3 months for a great commander that I can kick some ass. I'm tired of being left behind in my LGS games where everyone is playing what feels like 2 levels higher than I.\n\nSo I have set my sights on Anhelo, the Painter or Malik, Grim Manipulator (AKA: Negan) both seem very powerful and pretty late game which is what I want. My budget s $600.\n\nSo far I threw together 90 cards of Negan because I feel like he may be more viable for the long run giving control over creatures and treasures for later. I did put alot of ramp in there, which may be over the top but I wanted to go over the top to make sure I can do everything. I think I may be lacking in draw though I can't find any good draw spells for cheap in mardu.\n\nhttps://www.archidekt.com/decks/7954708/negan_knows\n\n\n\n\nStill willing to switch to Anhelo because I love the concept of playing two big spells at once though I just haven't worked on tuning him that much. Just good stuff XD\n\nhttps://www.archidekt.com/decks/7572540/zom_anhelo\n\n\n\nThank you for your help in advance!\n"}]}
