>>
>>94286278
I take apart old decks and make new decks like 2 or 3 times a month. Sometimes a deck doesn't hash out like I thought or I don't enjoy it or it's too good or it's too bad.

I just took apart Zinnia Dinosaurs because it did it's thing a few times then started sucking.

Are commanders with >4 cmc ever worth playing? I want to make a deck with picrel but I'm not sure since he's so expensive.
>>
>>94286663
the commander literally has a payoff for having a board built for him to land on i think that'd be the first tip off that you should focus on playing the game with a gameplan other than "I rush to cast my commander before everyone else"
>>
>>94286663
He does have the upside that he offers immediate advantage when he enters, since you can play a bunch of demons and then use him to help refill your hand.
That's already probably good enough to be playable, absent anything else. Being higher cmc isn't a big drawback when you need time to establish a board anyway.
>>
>>94286663
demons are one of the most expensive tribes, but they are really good, being in grixis colors also enable a lot of rituals so you can cast him earlier than you think
>>
>>94286663
If your commander is less than four to cast, I guarantee you it's gonna cost eight once I'm done with it.

Thoughts on this? No evasion makes it a bit akward, but +10/+10 is such an enourmous boost that you're likely to kill at least one person, and vigilance means you don't have to worry about retaliation
>>
>>94286968
the vigilance is actually really nice, can be good for a go wide finisher despite how expensive it is
>>
>>94286897
Better as a drop, you can just run her as a part of a good stuff pile with her just being a troll pick against a token deck.
Also her trigger is a dies trigger so cards like Rayami which replace dying with another action don't cause it to trigger.

meaning even they admit determining "power level" is impossible. That's why all they can actually do is create a ban list for the most annoying cards, construct precons to establish the power floor of the format and just tell people to deal with it

That makes it sound like it's some sort of cumulative ranking, where you'd need multiple cards of a certain tier to make the whole deck that tier.

the og article said a card with a single tier 4 card is a tier 4 deck. I know it doesn't make a lick of sense because of what you said and the revision should address these things
but try as they might. I think the whole tier system is going to evolve through community more than anything and will propably end up being a strict banlist for people who want to play in a certain tier

I look forward to telling people in my pod to fuck off with rhystic, armageddon, etc
I was already telling someone yesterday that I think straight tutors in general kind of suck for the format.
>>
>>94287626
What are your thoughts on gay tutors?
>>
>>94287626
I agree with non-basic tutoring. it just baffles me why people would think something like rhystic or armageddon would be anywhere near some cards that actually win the game instantly and put them in the same tier
>>
>>94287652
armageddon just arbitrarily extends the game (or you're working around it which is also kind of a shitter thing) and rhystic is less so about its power level and moreso about it being fucking annoying
Obviously you want some sort of direction for your deck but I think the direct intentionality of straight tutors like diabolic etc (at least for casual pods who gives a shit about cedh) is kind of against the point.
Communes, fixing, etc I think are fine though
>>
>>94287680

>>94287814
I just think it's lame that they're removing design elements that used to be key to their look like this. Goblins look weird and have big noses. It's a weird exaggerated feature intended to be part of their feel of being weird, ugly, creepy, or funny depending on the intent of the goblin being designed. A lot of them just look like green people now. Which isn't as fun. Still, all things considered I wouldn't say this new Krenko is that bad. There are worse goblins.

Eh. won't help vs the token deck with 18 saprolings out, that it can easily replenish. I don't see this as an upgrade to other removal. Saccing is nice, but sometimes destroy all is better.

Whenever I slot it in a deck, it's always a card I end up cutting. It's good to fuck with token users because you can cast it for x=0, but I've generally got an enchantment at 2-3-4 I'd really rather not have destroyed. Always seems a little too much destructive for yourself in proportion to how much you hurt others.
Though I guess if you go full Golgari, things hitting the graveyard is more of a convenience more than anything.

You said "I don't see this as an upgrade to other removal" and I said that it was good and useful. It costs one mana whenever there are enough creatures to make you want a board wipe, and that's enough to give it consideration. Even in your example, killing 13 creatures and leaving them with 5 is a big setback.
>>
>>94289262
I guess Rayami could make good use of it since you'd just kill everything under his CMC and then swing in with a flying, deathtouch, lifelink, whatever other keywords you manage to pick up.

UW was only ever a promise for secret lairs, they never said anything about doing it for mini-sets, edh decks, or full sets
that being said, that would be a (comparatively) easy set for them to make, only thing you need is art and some guy to make up characters, all the mechanics are done

I'm sure there would be people into that for the reprints alone. But Wizard's has already said they weren't going to do that so it's sunk. If what they've said is still true, only the secret lair universe beyond cards are getting the universes within. Eventually maybe we'll see the Marvel ones like Ironman and Wolverine and the other three in universe, but the actual set is not a guarantee and by what they've said seems like it may just not happen. Shame since I would like some new art for the Doctor Who cards since I don't care about that series but like a lot of the mechanics.

Oloro's life gain and draw is nice, but he doesn't really do much for the theme. I'd probably play Tymna-Esior before Oloro if I just want straight value.
If you don't mind taking other people's cards, you could play Saruman or Eriette.

It is my sincere hope that they eventually do something like that, since it would unlock a lot of cards currently trapped behind the slopwall, but they wouldn’t be able to fit them all in a single set at this point, and they’d probably need to glue it together with some non-UB reprints, so it’d need to be a once-every-few-years thing in order to eventually clear the backlog.
It’d probably be called something like “Universal Masters”, though, rather than “Remastered”.

Anon, take his dick out of your mouth. Archfiend has no payoff, and his choice of creatures and mechanics are disjointed and don't synergize well. His curve is terrible and he lacks reasonable ramp. Reanimation is hyper reliant on Sidar himself so a few removal spells break the deck down entirely.
It's a noob trap deck built by a bad player, at least Coram is cohesive and capable of combos and combat with enough recursion to make it work.
>>
>>94292838
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH I KNEW IT LMAO. Archfiend as a baseline makes all your opponents 1 weaker at combat. Kills the majority of creature tokes and mana dorks etc. Im not going further because multiple different people explained to you why you were wrong and you're still going at it lmfao

Ahahahaha I love bad players trying to talk about the game. Ramping is never necessary in edh
>>
>>94292865
Paying 5 mana do you can cripple your opponents board at minimum once a turn is indeed good. Not to mention his deck is full of discard and can probably go off 2 or 3 maybe even 4 times a turn also
>ramp good (and necessary lmao)

This is just sad
>>
>>94292893
>dying before you play cards is good??
>>94292898
>killing mana bad
Where did I say this? I'm saying that spending that much mana and still needing to input more just to kill things like Llanowar Elves is extremely weak. There were like 3 discard outlets in the entire deck and the curve starts at 3-4 in a deck meant to be creature focused. That severely limits multicasting and makes the deck frail to repeatable removal.

I had a Sek'kuar deck I took apart because it had a shitty win rate, which I removed the red from to make a Meren deck that was too good, which I removed the Green from to make a Yawgmoth deck which I still play to this day.
I had a Riku of two reflections deck that was too good, so I removed the red from it and turned into a Kruphix deck which was also too good, so I retired the entire deck.
I had an Otrimi mutate deck I took apart because there wasn't enough mutate cards that I liked, I'll probably rebuild it if and when we get more mutate cards.
I had a Roon, Mayael, and Azami decks I took apart because I built them terribly.
I had a Lavinia CeDH deck I recently took apart because it was terrible to play against and didn't have a very good win rate.
There's probably more but that's all I can remember off the top of my head.
>>
This Coram versus Sidar conversation you're having is retarded. Obviously Coram is stronger. The dude is able to fucking kill someone turn 3. Sidar is just a fun knight tribal deck that also happens to care about the graveyard.

i dont even care about losing my stuff, i just hate that all of the sort of interactivity around board wipes is removed and how it warps deckbuilding

>or maybe i should just accept i'm going to be boardwiped and look for ways to recur my pieces from the graveyard
nope. Farewell is the premier boardwipe in the format. I will never be able to protect my pieces, or get them back. The most common defence i hear for Farewell is 'dont overextend' but if i'm never getting anything back, and cant interact with it in anyway the only goal is to slam everything down as fast as possible and try to end the game before farewell is cast. It also means your deckbuilding is just 'value.list' because again, the back and forth of 'i keep a land or two up, plus a card to protect my stuff, in exchange for your board wipe' is just gone.
>>
The people who play Farewell are usually bad control/midrange players who will lose anyway.
>>
>>94293221
yep thats what i said alright
also even in your pathetic strawman scenario someone has had to
play something that makes tokens
accumulate enough to swing and win, either over time, or pumping them, or copying them
also apply indestructible to them

but somehow this is an issue?

>>
>>94293300
I dont understand if you are new to commander how you get to somewhere so entrenched, when there are easier more accessible options for information basically anywhere. if you are truly new to commander, find a precon with a Blue/black commander that seems interesting to you and start from there. Start upgrading it, and eventually work to building your own deck with a legendary you like.

Play The Scarab God as your commander and fill the deck with blue and black cards you like. You'll be fine.

take the samut pill, haste is goated

I've had a Liesa deck i wasn't really satisfied with, i took it apart and realized at some point in deckbuilding, ordering, and putting the cards together i fucked up and had a lot of expensive Debt to the Deathless type spells and ran only 33 lands.
Maybe i should rebuild her proper and give her another shot

>>
>>94293172
I wouldn't say it's THAT bad. I agree with >>94293221 that it's at least a litmus test to see if someone can read the board. But whenever I see it played people always select all modes. The green players and the people that kept their hand stocked get to play the game, while people with smaller hands just get to sit and topdeck for the rest of the game that's been brought back down to a glacial speed.
An early farewell can be alright if you're playing with vaguely competent people with board awareness. A later farewell without a way to close out the game is torture
>>
>>94293387
>shadow, banding, blood tokens, level up
All good things...? What's the issue here?
>ifnir
At base will make combat easier every turn by crippling the opponent. Better it is essentially a token board wipe once a turn.
>almost no token generators
Okay? What lmao
>recursion
Printed on the commander
>moonshaker
Oh no a game ender in a combat deck!
You're bad at the game
>>
>>94293445
>All good things...? What's the issue here?
frustrating, nonsynergistic, random keywords that only serve to show how "speshul" the deck is
>At base will make combat easier every turn by crippling the opponent. Better it is essentially a token board wipe once a turn.
It's a lightning rod for removal and that requires more than just playing it. low value, no synergy with the theme.
>printed on the commander
so if the non-ward no protection commander dies the whole deck falls apart?
>cope about moonshaker
not gonna grace this with a real response, you're bad
>>
>>94293415
Lol, Cyclonic Rift is much better than Farewell. Have you even played blue control in EDH?

It's Princess Bride you zoomer dumbfuck.

>>94293460
>speshul
So you are just seething got it.
>lightning rod
Okay...? And correct! Good thing there is diacard stapled onto the commander as well. You're bad at the game!
>dies to removal
Oh no! Another gameplan foiled by removal. It's an eminence commander he only needs to cast it once or twice at the right moment
>moonshaker
Is objectively better than most overrun cards. Flying is better evasion than trample and ALWAYS preferable. Moonshaker is a fantastic card, better than crater even. You clearly just sit around regurgitating shit and don't understand the game anon it's okay ^.^
>>
>>94293469
>Have you even played blue control in EDH
I don't play terrible decks, so no. Sorry, but eluge isn't as strong as you think he is

the recursion is not part of the eminence ability

Again if you understood the game at all you wouldn't contest it anon. Flying is always preferable

>>94293323
>extremely good landbase
if your land base is 4x more expensive than the rest of your deck, the rest is probably not very good

>>94293501
ooh yeaah i forgot, my bad, its totally not

you absolute rateded has-been
>>
>>94293538
lands are the most expensive part of any deck so you're wrong, retarded and likely fat as well
>>
>>94293527
I'm aware of that anon.... you use his Eminence ability to fill up the yard and cast him when you have a good target ready to go. He doesn't need to just sit on the battlefield waiting for something to be in there, he fills it up from the command zone, then can be cast to get its attack trigger... how bad are you at the game honestly?
>>
>>94292886
it doesn't have a bazooka in the art which makes it a lot worse

this card confuses me
it cant effect itself? why would you use this? it also cant benefit from moonshaker or wave-knight
sure it survives things like damnation, farewell, and wrath of god but what's the point??
>>
>>94293650
I spend an hour in the tub every morning and like to fill in the time with brewing and arguing
>>
>>94293653
Ok, what decks are you fags currently working on? Im thinking of building Yenna, Redtooth Regent. Looks fun and I have tons of enchantment support sitting in my binders
>>
>>94293672
Protection means
>This [object] can't be blocked, targeted, dealt damage, enchanted, or equipped by anything [quality].”
Stillmoon Cavalier isn't targeting itself with it's activated abilities since you aren't selecting something to target.
>>
>>94293672
Your question confuses me, what exactly are you asking?
>>
>>94293713
it lists itself so its targeting itself, right
>>94293717
why use a card thats immune to board wipes but cant get stronger in the same colors
>>
>>94293717
Nvm, I see it now>>94293713
>>
>>94293702
I have a few decks I'm trying to finalize. Got an Arabella deck, a new Niko deck, a Losheel/Oswald thousand moon smithy deck, Ishkanah and maybe a gruul one i have been puttering around with. Hoping to be happy with the lists for the first 4 so I can tell my family to get them for Christmas for me B)
>>
>>94293672
>it survives things like damnation, farewell, and wrath of god
It doesn't. Protection from X means you can't be targeted, blocked, or damaged by X. It doesn't give indestructible from X (damage can destroy a creature, but destroy effects don't cause damage), or protect from non-targeting effects other than ones that deal damage. So protection from red would protect a creature from the many red "deals X damage to every creature" effects, but protection from white won't save a creature from getting wrathed.
>>
>>94293743
oh whats the point of protection then? it sounds not very good
>>
>>94293722
No if something is targeting it'll either mention the fact that it's targeting in the card text or the rules text.
Additionally I do think Wave-Knight and Moon Shaker would work on it as they don't target.
>>
>>94293747
Makes the creature unblockable, able to block without dying, and immune to single-target removal from specific color (or sometimes other things).
>>
>>94293758
so wait
it can be affected by wave-knigth and moonshaker
and it cant be blocked by white or black creatures
and it has all of those buffs??
broken
>>94293760
holy shit thats broken as fuck
>>
>>94293764
Not broken, just good. Other colors can still target it/block it
>>
>>94293778
i changed my mind it seems really good now it avoids a lot and can get super strong
>>
>>94292995
>bro 2 decides to keep a 2 land hand without any ramp or draw and does nothing for 5 turns
This is the one that gets me. Take the mulligan until you've at least got three. Taking a two land hand is just throwing.
>>
>>94293280
Yeah that's what I've been thinking. It's a little annoyingly pricy but it's a massive upgrade aesthetically.
>>
>>94293324
>The Scarab God as your commander
Anyone have experience with this? He looks cool but I always felt he'd be a little too expensive mana wise both to cast and to use his effect to make work.
>>
Help me cut 21 from this pile. I'm building Nü Kykar for a high level table with the intent of making people groan and suffer. Strat is simple. I blink my value pieces using cast triggers from countering and staxing people. The three color Kykar listed is just a placeholder. Picrel will be commander.
>>
>>94293431
Yeah it's the kind of card that benefits decks that can consistently draw extra cards throughout a game while massively punishing both over extending and any colors that don't draw well natively and have to rely on mana rocks. I don't particularly mind the card since I usually like to keep some back up cards in hand, but damn does it do what it does better than anything else.
>>
>>94293869
instead of cutting, add more protection first, so it will be even harder for us
>>
>>94293702
Working on Odric. Have a list running decently right now but it's mostly just bulk cards that happen to have a lot of key words. That new Eldrazi with seven key words is a pleasant surprise that I am looking to throw in once the set drops.
