After taking a bit of a break I've been itching to start playing Magic again. The latest in any tournament coverage I've caught up to has been Pro Tour Ixalan. I figured this would be the best place to ask for some info and insight on having a good reboot so I'm not just jumping back in blindfolded.
My current plan is to start drafting and collecting up to date (current Standard) cards to have a deck again. I haven't played competitive or at all for that matter since...I want to say SOI (Shadows Over Innistrad)? But I do have some cards (of which I'm sure are out by now) left from a aggro U/W Spirit deck I played briefly before going on hiatus.
I'm a blue mage, but I loved Temur when Khans Block was still legal, so I guess what I want to ask while I draft is what are decent budget decks in U/G/R or any combination of those colors to start on while I collect for a Temur with a dab of B build? Eventually when I finish thinking about the last few cards on that list I'll post that up for opinions as well.

Always making and taking apart decks. Never know, I just might have something you've been looking for. Be sure to ask if you don't see it there, I might be using it but I'll never mind parting ways with a card.
I would look into GR Energy and UG Energy decks. They are relatively cheap and have a lot of the basic cards that go into a Temur Energy deck. It might give you something to play while you build up your collection for a more expensive deck.
Example UG Energy Deck:

Example GR Energy Deck:

Example Temur Energy Deck:

Are you trying to get back into playing or get back into collecting? The cheapest and fastest way to start from scratch is to buy a deck/singles. There are lots of competitive decks with various prices. If you want to start with your own brew, I'd recommend using an app/proxying to build and test, and then just buy the cards you need.
Mace is giving great advice too. GR and GU energy are really fun decks and they both feed into a Temur deck while you build your collection.
I'm most definitely am gonna try out the UG Energy build first. Looking at all 3 builds and even seeing it in that Pro Tour I can for certain Bristling Hydra is a must have for anything competitive and green. I really like what I'm seeing here, especially Rootbound Crag being back in standard. Thank you Mace! These are ideal for getting used to the energy mechanic on the way back in!

Ronnie328, I wanted to get back into playing and eventually back into competitive. I think I'm going to start off on the UG build Mace Posted earlier because before Temur I was a Simic guy. lol Some ways down the road I do intend to make my own brew, this energy mechanic is interesting, and I'm pretty sure it's already been exploited to the max but I can't wait to see which way actually works best.

¡®A note from Lord Inverbroom, sir,¡¯ he said. ¡®His lordship told me to give it you personally.¡¯ "Uv co'se!" The reptile giggled, squirted and nodded. "Danger.--The danger lies in the second floor back bedroom of the corner house.--Z." All round the sanctuary, in niches under a square cloister, are three hundred and fifty alabaster Buddhas, all alike, with the same jewel in their forehead, and on their shoulders and round their bodies[Pg 61] gold bands set with imitation gems and cut glass. An old woman, who had come thither at daybreak, had prayed to each of these Buddhas; to each she had offered up the same brief petition, she had struck the three bells on her way, and she was now in the sanctuary, calling out a prayer while beating a gong that hangs from the arch. Meanwhile other worshippers were murmuring their invocations prostrate before the jewelled Buddha. Ellton messed with them regularly, but he was not to go out, because he was acting adjutant. To his intense disgust and considerable mortification¡ªfor he was young and very enthusiastic and burdened with ideals¡ªhe was obliged to appear spick and span in irreproachable undress, beside his superiors in their campaign clothes. "Mr. Klegg," said the Herd-Boss, coming toward him, "you've done your duty, and you've done it well. I don't know how I could've ever got this lot through but for your help. Here's your carpet-sack, and here's a haversack o' rations I've put up for you. Take mighty good care of it, for you'll need every cracker. That lot o' tents you see over there, with a yaller flag flyin' over 'em, is a general hospital. Mebbe you'll find your son in there." The shears were found and borrowed. Then ensued a discussion as to the style of the cut. The boys wanted their hair taken off close to their heads, 'but the Deacon demurred to this for fear they would catch cold. "They're going to fight," Dr. Haenlingen said. "When the Confederation attacks, they're going to fight back. It's senseless: even if we won, the Confederation fleet could blockade us, prevent us getting a shipment out, bottle us up and starve us for good. But they don't need sense, they need motive, which is quite a different thing. They're going to fight¡ªboth because they need the punishment of a really good licking, and because fighting is one more way for them to deny their guilt." "Off!¡ªwhere?" "I d?an't say as I want to do that." "Oh, I have murdered the child!" exclaimed Mary, in the dreadful excitement of the moment. "What will become of me? what shall I do? I shall surely be hung. Oh! oh!" she continued, covering her face with her hands, to shut out the sight of the gasping infant. At this instant, the door opened; Mary looked up fearfully¡ªit was her husband. "Oh, Byles! Byles! look at this child! What will become of me?" HoMEÂêÑÅÍøÖ·Ãâ·ÑÒ»¼¶
