>>94172049
Okay, probability is more complex than this, but lets just do some simple fractions.
Want to hit that 4th land drop? That is 4/11 or 36/99. Taking into account fetch lands though, you're probably looking at more like 38 for good measure. The math changes with some early card draw/quality, like sylvan library or brainstorm, but like many people here say, people generally don't play enough lands.
10 removal? What kind of removal? Board wipe? Single target? If you want to have interaction in the first 2 turns, then you're looking at 1/9 or 11/99 and those would all be 2cmc or less.
Ramp is similar to removal. You ramping turn 1? turn 2? You're not going to consistently have early ramp if half of your ramp is 4cmc or higher. In decks where I ramp on 2, I'm usually playing 12 2cmc ramp+38 lands, which makes half the deck into mana.
Those 10 draw spells better draw you a lot. You'll need to draw about 9 cards to reach your next draw spell next turn. Every less draw than that means you wait another turn to fill up your hand again. Lets say you need 3 turns to cast the spells you want before refilling your hand. Are all the draw spells you're playing drawing you 6 or more cards?

Legend’s Legacy, I first tried turning it into an extra combat deck, didn’t like it, then I made it into a keyword soup deck and I’ve liked that version the most, next gonna try the more standard legendary token spam, the sentimental value I have for the deck is also a reason I haven’t just turned it into a 5 color legend only pile with Jodah Unifier- just wouldn’t feel the same even if it does solve one of the problems I tend to run into with the deck (average p/t is 3/3 or 4/4).

Even though he came out in 2013, he still holds up as a commander quite well. Being able to use all the lifegain payoff cards without requiring many actual lifegain sources is arguably more powerful now than it was back then.

I have named the decks I have online, but I can't really remember most of them, most are just shitty puns somehow relating to the commander, or other kind of jokes. Only deck I have actually named is my Tayam deck, which I named "Tribute to the Hungry Ones", but I can't remember much details, I just remember it from a dream I once had and I had "Tayam" once as my captcha, which is the sole reason I built it as commander.

shit's broken, it's really easy to play an instakill combo with just 2 cards and commander out. the value of several jund creatures is insane too. probably need to cut the budget down from $350 to a more reasonable price. on the pro side, games are really short.

Maybe it’s just my playgroup, but unless someone’s playing a dedicated artifact deck they’ll rarely have more than 2-4 nontoken artifacts, so because balor will trigger twice a turn with feldon’s effect, I can be pretty sure I’ll hit the thing I wanted to hit
>>
>>94174531
Not saying you should run these, but here are some more options:
Oblivion Stone, Ugin, Volcanic Vision, Disaster Radius, Chandra's Ignition, Chain Reaction, Balefire Dragon, Drakuseth, By Force, Shattering Spree, Shattering Pulse, Hellkite Tyrant, Spiteful Banditry, Pyrohemia, Sarkhan's Unsealing, Alpha Brawl, Waltz of Rage, Cityscape Leveler, Transmogrifying Wand, Desecrate Reality, Invasion of Ravnica, Karn Liberated, Ulamog
Also consider Wand of Wonder to use opponent's spells. Much better than old Chaos Wand. :p
>>
>>94174665
Oh right I also have zoyowa’s justice I forgot to list that one. I also have a goblin welder in the deck but never thought to use it as removal, mostly use it to recur my own artifacts using the tokens that are going to die anyway

goblin welder can work in very specific situations as removal, but yeah, most of the time it's for your own stuff since it synergizes so well with feldon.

This is my list as it stands right now, but I haven't seriously updated it for a while. He can be a bit tricky because of how very straightfoward his ability is: It's clear exactly what you want to do, so you need to be able to do it in either an unexpected way i.e. instant speed or make him untouchable first.
People who haven't played against him before might underestimate him, whilst people who know what he's capable of could err towards removing him asap just to prevent any future hassle.

EDH is perfectly playable with two. Duel commander doesn't have any drastic different rules from Standard-EDH. Only difference in how you build you decks.
3DH is just an inbetween those.

I've never got out an intentionally said "Hey lets play 3 player edh." but when we're light on MtG player before or after our D&D games we've been known to play 3DH. It's fine.

Kinda bored with playing regular decks, thinking of building a deck with all the (cheap) "You win the game" and "opponent loses the game" cards. What would be the best/cheapest commander for this? It'd have to be 5c since Door to Nothingness would be in it
>>
>>94175456
>I was just holding it/going through it like that
In that case, no I just sleeve it one card at a time. Resleeving takes too long and I don't want to risk damaging the cards. I hate looking at little knicks and stuff when playing, I'm picky like that. Unless it's an old card, then the wear is kinda cool.

Blex is nice, cheap, and easy to upgrade. You can either go tribal or reanimator, he likes miracles as well.

You could do it by using those "get cards from outside the game" cards, then shuffling everything into your library.

>>
>>94175512
There are no concrete ways of doing it, but that being said...
Claire d'loon is the easiest method of it. Make tokens and shuffle them back in. Silver-border card so you'll need to clear it.
Wish cards are also now technically legal since the RC's rule on them not working in EDH isn't in WotC's version of the rules. Just recycle wish effects until you have 200 then shuffle them back in.

>>94175590
No. Your opponent untaps with those three cards before you do, their cards will on average be better than yours (as they are unlikely to be playing mono-white), and unlike Trade Secrets you don't get enough raw card advantage to at least skullfuck the other two players. Use mazemind tome or bankbuster like everyone else.

I'm building a seton deck and this combo caught my eye. Infinite etb's, and when seton's on the field you also get infinite mana. In monogreen that easily translates to infinite draw as well, especially with some anthems. Pretty cool.

What do we think of picrel for edh?
I nooticed it took over SB gravehate slots in every competitive format in just a week. Even played MD in a bunch of tier 1 lists (mostly the ones running urza's saga obv, but i've seen few instances of UB rea, jund, eldrazi aggro running it too in legacy & modern). But i haven't seen it played much (at all) in edh, both duel and casu.

The card is really good, but that frame is hideous. It lets you snipe important cards from turn one, but then turns into a backup win condition in the late game.

Give it some time, the card will become a staple here too. Even banking on just 1 or 2 creatures with ETB or abilities is a banger. And if you manage to land it early you'll get more than that unless it get answered. But nobody want to waste a removal for a fucking 1 drop hatecard who already did half it's job.

Probably not. Tolarian Community College is clearly a play on words of Tolarian Academy, it’s probably protected as parody.
Even then, it’s not like you get to just sue someone and reap hundreds of thousands of dollars instantly. In civil law you have to negotiate before bringing suit otherwise you might be penalized at a later stage, it’s called Alternative Dispute Resolution.
If they sent a letter notifying intent to sue, and he changed his name, that would probably be the end of it
Also not super wise on Hasbro’s part since there’s dozens of YouTubers that go by names of characters from their IP and shit, would cause pretty much universal backlash outweighing any potential benefit of suing TCC.

I wanna spam tokens then turn them all into copies of something like signal pest to win the game. I know Brudiclad does something similar, but I feel his effect is more limiting on deck building.

I'm thinking Kykar or Alistair, which would you choose?

Alistair let's me run an extra mass copy effect with Echoing Equation along with green's ramp and token doublers.

But Kykar feels more open ended and could possibly make more tokens by itself.

You talking about the activated ability? I see it as a "eh something to dump excess mana on" and not "everyone's gonna spend all their mana on this ASAP". As a super casual goad/lower-tier-chaos type commander it's fine. Are there better options? Absolutely, but it gets tiring running the same high powered/meta/popular commanders as everyone else
>>
>>94177576
No
>>
>>94177572
>>94177582
Meant instead of saving it for your Commander under YOUR control im saving it for your Commander under MY control

Point being there’s really no difference.
If you put that thing on my field I’m just gonna pop it. If everyone happens to have 3 open mana, maybe you burn me for 6, but then that’s it, it’s gone. Every time you try to do it again it’s less and less worth it because of Commander tax.

If it had an ability that if it would die it goes onto your field, and then can be put under someone else’s control again, maybe it would be worth it. But it doesnt.
So what value are you really getting out of the most important slot in your deck?

You’d be better off building Beamtown Bullies or Jon Irenicus
>>
>>94177517
I don’t know about using her as a commander but she puts in some work in my Queen Marchesa deck. The trouble I could see with her being your commander is she doesn’t really do anything game winning. She’s more of a temporary hinderance one guy while everyone else could pay for a free draw. But there’s no guarantee anyone will want or need to use her ability. You also don’t want to give her to someone that would sacc her for some effect and save their own creatures. Too many variables and all of them are out of your control

>>94177613
>If everyone happens to have 3 open mana, maybe you burn me for 6, but then that’s it, it’s gone. Every time you try to do it again it’s less and less worth it because of Commander tax.
Lol to be fair, you could say this about literally every commander in the game.

>>
>>94177623
>Lol to be fair, you could say this about literally every commander in the game.
No, because good Commanders are worth recasting.
I’m not trying to say “does to removal lol”
I’m saying you’re putting something on the board that isn’t going to live a single turn, and with its ability being static it inherently becomes less and less worthwhile to recast.

Whereas there are commanders that can actually increase in value to you as the game goes on, making recasting worthwhile.
>>
>>94177635
>I’m saying you’re putting something on the board that isn’t going to live a single turn
There's no way to know this for sure, ever. There's no guarantee the person you're giving it to has removal in hand and ready to go. And since you're not giving her to someone with a sac outlet, I'd gamble on giving her to someone with the smallest board state. Once again, I'm not saying she's great or she should be ran, only that it's different than the usual stuff I see at the LGS. She's not *terrible*, but she's not great

Is there a good place to find full deck breakdowns or tech explanations? Video or text, either is fine.

I'm relatively new and most of my decks are either generic EDHrec value piles (Tatyova, Zimone) or variable-quality things I've scraped together using Scryfall to find obvious synergies. I don't have any decks using blink/combo/theft/spellslinger type of stuff. I don't want to go full high power and blowout everyone, but I do want to start stepping into more complex builds, and my knowledge of all but the most recent sets is painfully limited.
>>
>>94177649
Yeah cool, anon. RNG! I guess if everything is just random then there is no good or bad!

We don’t live in that world. Not knowing what someone might do is not good enough.
Assuming people are holding removal for commanders anyway, all you have done is put your Commander on someone else’s field for nothing. She has no protection, she doesn’t get more powerful as the game goes on. At absolute best, if everyone has 3 open mana, the controller gets burned for 6 at instant speed and everyone draws but them. Then she’s dead, and that 1 effect gets more and more expensive for YOU to pull off.

Compare that to Beamtown Bullies that can set up a grave with insane mana cost creatures and then give them to your opponents goaded for free
Or Jon Irenicus who needs up the creatures he gives goaded and makes them unsackable, meaning you can give creatures that have really negative effects but can’t die to their own sac condition.

Those commanders literally do the same thing as this Commander but infinitely better because you have a range of options that change as the game goes on instead of just being 1 effect that increasingly becomes less and less worth it

You will have more fun with an effect that doesn’t get costed out the first fucking time it’s used.

It’s not about winning or losing. Put absolute fucking garbage into your Beamtown Bullies or Jon Irenicus decks, I don’t give a flying fuck. But their abilities objectively provide more value to you by any fucking metric, whether you want to measure competitiveness or fun

Buckle Up from Neon Dynasty, which is what got me into Magic to begin with. It's such a fun deck for casual games at an LGS because nobody knows how to deal with Vehicles. It's not really strong out of the box and I don't have the scratch to really upgrade but I enjoy it for what it is.

I've never purchased a precon. A friend described EDH to me and so I built a super control, shitass deck with this glorious bastard. It had like ~25 cards in it that allowed me to untap another creature/permanent, so each of my turns were spent tapping/untapping/tapping/untapping/tapping over and over to lock down the entire board. This was like 12 years ago when friends built terrible decks that didn't run a lot of removal so once he was on the board he pretty much stayed there. 10/10 everyone hated it

Here's some cute tech for vehicles. They aren't creatures when you untap, and most of the stuff you tap to crew is small. Everyone else is locked down and you're cruising.

Diamonds already have a mana rock series. Charcoal, Sky, Marble, Fire, and Moss diamonds. Probably why marble is also off the table, aside from it just not being a precious stone.
Quartz isn't precious either.

My main man Coram, the Undertaker. You can kinda coast on it however you want as it's just voltron at heart. Equipment, Enchantments, Stax, whatever. Or you can get more into his milling aspect with big creatures like Daemogoth Titan, Death's Shadow, Titanoth Rex, or something like Impervious Greatwurm. Or you can do conditional power like Malignus, Apocalypse Demon, or Lord of Extinction. Since he steals people's shit too, you can benefit more from stuff like Fellwar Stone and Exotic Orchard than most decks can (other than like 5 colors, obviously). There's a lot of ways to hit people in the head with a shovel.

Exactly what >>94178832 said. Sol Ring and Mana Crypt on T1/T2 gets it. I've seen it happen in back to back games

Turn 1 island into sol ring into mana vault into talisman of indulgence into talisman of dominance. Turn 2 play a land, cast Sauron

You're playing a PL6 deck and you only think It's PL7 because you can sometimes have a broken artifact in your opener. Just drop the fast mana from your list and play in the PL6 deck where you belong. You'll enjoy it a lot more.

From the few games I've played against an aura version of her and what I've heard, it's also incredibly disgusting. You also get a ton of auras that draw you a card. So combined with with 1 mana instants and sorceries that draw ou a card plus creatures like stormchaser drake, archmage emeritus, you just draw a ridiculous amount of cards for very little mana. Dude even took out sol-ring, cause colourless mana became practically useless. It's also naturally super fast since Ivy is only 2 mana and so are many creatures you wanna play.

But if you play auras, print out copies for Ivy. Otherwise no one will be able to track what's happening.

You can also sleeve them in perfect-size sleeves or differently coloured sleeves. And since you don't need to shuffle them, they can also be cheaper sleeves you have lying around.

This is NOT how commander damage works. Your copies do not do commander damage. Commander damage is a function of the card specifically, tokens are not that card.

In any event, you're more likely to deal 21 damage to each opponent with your original Ivy before you deal 40 damage to each opponent with any combination of Ivys
Just because you'll probably throw the real one at the person who can't block it and the rest at someone else

I was part of a game once where one guy had dictate and no mercy out, while a skeleton tribal player had dictate and grave pact out. the skeleton tribal player was just constantly attacking the other guy and kept wiping the board until he could finish everyone with some X life leech spell.

This thread is 90% larpers trying to impress other larpers with how long they've been playing this game and how they've never bought a card cause they have a huge collection (that just magically phased into existence of course). EDH is literally an old folks home for faggy card players, lying to each other about their youths.

I'm one of the anons who said yes to your question because it's objectively true, BUT to your new question it's
people are going to complain about everything, so just run what you like. Use your $100+ land base and let your friend proxy better lands if they want to. If he thinks his deck can get that much better off of a more expensive land base, then do that.
