>>96857945I run a bunch of color hate, mostly blue or black color hate since those are the most overpowered colors in EDH games.Seedtime, Lifeforce, Ruric Thar + hate pieces for blue, Order of the Sacred Torch/Stromgald Cabal, I think that color hoser cards are quite good when most people play 3+ color slop decks.
BLOGPOST BELOW:>group used to be just me and some friends from work who only played casual games>friend invite some guy from a LGS he goes who only play tryhard stuff>that guy start inviting other people from his LGS to our group who also only play tryhard stuff>the two other friends of the original group left because they don't want to waste a weekend to sit and watch someone wins in 5 turnsAnd now I am the one leaving because I too am tired of this shit, fuck you, Daryl, for killing the group.
>>96857945Oh, that's a nice card. I should add this to my blue decks, there's always someone using green.
>down to 7 to cut>AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHI removed thassas since getting 50 blue pips and clone legion would be too lame to win with https://moxfield.com/decks/fDdYAKNEG02izfpJ-M8N_Q
>>96858118I feel like I've been a Daryl in the past, without inviting anyone. I had this group that introduced me to commander and I would always borrow a deck of theirs. Once I built my own decks, I started winning by being a stax and combo player. I haven't been invited back since I locked them out of two games in a row with two different decks.
Could I get some help with my GAAIV deck? I need some wincons other than attrition and theft.https://moxfield.com/decks/z3cSk0odD0WZKMGqVd_z0w

>>96860459Hey now, I only play it in high power pods. But to quote my buddy when he played against it "Who hurt you as a child?"
If I use Goldberry or use proliferate to add the last lore counter to a saga like this, should the transformation trigger?Did it Xmage the other day and it was just sacrificed. Is it a bug?Also, if I remove a lore counter when the last (regular) saga chapter is resolving, will it still be sacrificed?
>>96860525Yes.
>>96860525clearer answers>If I use Goldberry or use proliferate to add the last lore counter to a saga like this, should the transformation trigger?yes>Also, if I remove a lore counter when the last (regular) saga chapter is resolving, will it still be sacrificed?Yes.The saga is sacrificed the moment it resolves the last part of the saga.
ayulabros... we lost (again)
>>96860556>>96860564Thanks. Knew something was fucky was going on in xmage.
>>96860290This is a fun looking deck, what are your general play-lines for it?
>>96860935>shrine supportNot what I was expecting but okay
>>96858118Was in a similar situation, worst part is when you confront them and they all play the victim or they play with their even more combo heavy deck to demonstrate what is real "cEDH". Now I only play with a fixed group, it's harder to form a table but way more satisfying that play spectator.
Thirty (30) starting life is objectively superior to fourty (40)
>>96858118Slowly been happening to my group but we did it to ourselves when we got into an arm’s race just before Covid hit. Ended up with pic as my strongest deck over the past 11 years of playing. Sisay is the main commander over Karametra nowadays but it still shits on their decks enough that they’ll fun for me straight out the gate.
Is this here just the best five color commander to play for non-commander focused hijinks? I would like to create a mutate deck with everything from ikora
>meet up with friend over beers >its been like 6 years>he got into edh a few years back>he knows Ive been playing for over 10>he feels the need to explain every cookie cutter combo he runs like I've never heard of them before no matter how many time I tell him I know how the combo worksI think I know why we stopped hanging out

As a representative of Wizards of the Coast, I would like to thank you for melting down about the bans of Dockside Extortionist, Mana Crypt, and Jeweled Lotus which allowed us enough cover to send death threats to the RC so they would give us control of the format. We have decided to move forward with both the Rhystic Study ban and the hybrid mana change for the health of our stock options. As thanks, here is a sneak peak of an exciting new card you can find exclusively in collector booster packs for next year. It's very exciting for us as it goes in even more decks and has far fewer copies on the market than the now banned Rhystic Study. Thank you for payi- er, playing.
>Fire Lord Azula>she was never coronated>literally the scene being referenced in the art for the card is Zuko interrupting the coronation to challenge her to agni kai so you can't weasel out and say it's a "what if?"HOW DO YOU FUCK UP THE LORE LIKE THISYOU ONLY HAD ONE FUCKING JOBACCURATELY TRANSLATE THE FUCKING IP TO CARDBOARDWHY BOTHER IF YOU CAN'T GET IT RIGHTI HATE UB SO FUCKING MUCHhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRkI15fIJ1w
>>96861796I'll still take it over Rhystic Study.
>>96861629This is actually pretty cool. Surprised to see there still some interesting cards hidden in that set.
>>96861807At this point, she was already Fire Lord in her head
>>96861807self given title
>>96861807lmao shut the fuck up avatarslop fag
>>96857945>psh>nothing personal, kid
>>96861819>>96861823Neither of these things are true, I linked the clip for a fucking reason.Even when Zuko is on scene, she has not been crowned, the guy goes to crown her again and she tells him to wait and that she will fight Zuko to be Fire Lord.There is no world in which you can say she was ever Fire Lord, even in her own head. She was planning to win it by beating her brother.
>>96861855Anon she was already exiling people from the Fire Nation
>>96861864???? so??? she's a fucking princess and always was. She was never Fire Lord in any sense.
>>96861874she didn't start doing that until her father declared her Fire Lord anon, she clearly already had it in mind that she was the Fire Lord
Boss, I'm so tired...
>>96861881This is the dumbest fucking argument imaginable and I have no idea why people in /edhg/ more than any other thread on this entire site thinks it's the funniest thing in the world to argue shit they know is unwinnable
>>96861909
>>96861893Remember, sets are planned 2 years in advance so even if AtLA flops as hard as spider-slop, you still have 2 more years of UB to come
>>96861909It's the Wizard of Oz princess argument all over again
>>96861922Hence >people in /edhg/ more than any other thread on this entire site
>>96861807How can you know this many things about the story yet not understand the underlying character?
>>96861986You can watch the clip. At no point did Azula "think" she was fire lord or any shit like that. She literally refuses the crown and says she will fight Zuko for it.You're not going to get another argument on this. If you try this bait again I'm just going to point you back to this post.
>>96861986It's crazy isn't it? He's completely ignoring that Zuko's parallel card with this Azula is also using the title Fire Lord. Whoever won their duel was going to be the fire lord and usher in the future of their nation.
>>96861986Magic players have the lowest media literacy and highest rate of autism among any demographic I've ever dealt with. Like I'm pretty sure the only reason WAR got retconned was the fact it made Chandra straight and otherwise people would have lauded it as MtG's best story ever.
Is that... FIRE!? IN MY MONO-SKELETON DECK!? AIEEEEE SAVE ME SHELDON-SAMA!!!
>i can just reply to myself to bait you into replying!!In fact, you cannot.
>>96861931Maybe I'll start watching the wmba until this blows over
>>96857945>TQNone. I don't really like those color specific cards. The closest I usually run is this one since it's almost always online.
>TQThe blowouts are worth the few games where it's dead
>Asuka has no red pips on her card>It's only on flavor text, which doesn't count.>Produces red mana, mono-black commanderxD Great work, Wizards!

>>96862353no, but a fun one for your opponents
>>96862325This is genuinely be one of the cutest magic card arts we've had in years. I don't think anything comes even remotely close.
>>96862395I find it kinda funny, personally.
are you able to brew up decklists in your head? do you need a list to make sure you can remember 60+ non land cards?
>>96857945>TQ:Pyroblast, REB, and this badboy. When it hits, it hits hard.
>>96862367because underworld breach has effectively powercrept it, ala demonic tutor > diabolic tutor; breach lets you cast the same spell over and over which puts it over the edgethis is the real game changer that's slipping past the radar, especially when you think about croprot
>>96862481Cards that tutor to the graveyard are underrated in general.
>>96862494edh is the format where black should have more game changers than blue, because tutors > draw

You know what would have helped lessen the amount of repeating legendaries? Korra cards.
The sheer amount of repeating cards here really makes me dread the Hobbit setLike, a bunch of cards that would be in the Hobbit were already made in LotRIf they had done a Silmarillion set, now that I could have been excited for because of the sheer amount of characters to chose
>>96862647making fucking 3x versions of every legendary is basically a parody of modern magic. definition of "this shit should've been a secret lair at best"
>>96862610You know what will stop repeating legendaries? Ensemble casts.>final fantasy>avengers>justice league>genshin impact>smash bros>tekken
>>96862481>because underworld breach has effectively powercrept it, ala demonic tutor > diabolic tutor; breach lets you cast the same spell over and over which puts it over the edgeOut of curiosity, why is yawgmoth's will restricted in vintage, but not underworld breach?Is it because of needing to exile other cards to cast from underworld breach?
>>96862690die die die die die die die
>>96862695Another case of wotc not caringBreach itself is a 2 of; yawgwill should be unrestricted
>Somebody's commander dies>"actually, I won't put it in the command zone">counter their reanimate >spend the rest of the game seething because they only had the one reanimate spell apparently
Avatar is still UB sloppa, but I will admit that at least it's got more interesting designs than Spiderman.
>>96862690You know what will stop repeating legendaries? Not having to be contractually obligated to represent other IP's in a certain fashion.
>>96861931If nothing else the seething it is currently causing my friends does make my day>Heralded LotR UB as a great future for MtG>2 years later and they refuse to play / scoop as soon as they see any other UB card and/or with anime art but are making an exception for LA because they loved it as kids (personally never got the appeal of it)>Gives me another opportunity to bait them by referring to it as anime
>>96862811>making people angry is the peak of comedyGrow up.
>>96862811>exception for LABro I can't wait for the Los Angeles plane. I'm so sick of the NYC plane.
>>96862219>asukabaka shinji
>>96862836Evangelion UB 2027!!>eva collabs with almost everybody, it's likelier than you think
>>96862690>make commander products for them so we still get at two versions of 80 characters>even have two versions of the SAME CHARACTER in one commander deck>follow up with scenes boxes so more characters can follow this trend
>>96862854I once visited Tokyo and went to a curry restaurant and they were randomly doing an eva colab.
>>96862871Hey at least we dont see Cloud at uncommon
>>96862878Can't wait to crew Unit-01 as a vehicle
>>96862871>>96862881At least for FF, I think Cloud and Sephiroth were the only characters with 3 or more mechanically unique cards (1 standard, 1 commander card, 1 starter kit). That's probably the upper bound of how many instances of a single character that would feel reasonable to me. LotR went too far with Frodos and Gandalfs and Spiderman went WAY too far in general.
>>96862777Yeah this niggas cool af
>>96862823Funny, that’s what I told them last time they sperged out when I called it an anime. Nevermind my other point of scooping and not playing against people using other UB cards except LotR and soon LA.
>>96862765punishing "I won't put it in the command zone" is peak entertainmentespecially if it was in exile
>>96862898Frodo had 4 but people only really remember 3 (I keep forgetting the mono white version exists). Gandalf had 5. And then Aragorn (if we include strider) had 6.
>>96862927It's AtLA btw (avatar the last airbender)Seeing LA keeps making me think of los angeles
>>96862927>Errrrm akshually he's just as bad as me!
>>96862881yeah we got Zidane and Tidus there instead for some reason
>>96862953He's probably Br*tish. They called it Legend of Aang over there because "bender" can mean a gay guy
>>96862964This. Especially Zidane. Tidus at least got a commander face card.
>>96862678>3xTry 6x that's what avatar is right now
>>96862966Nope, Ausfag. Which is kind of close but they called it Last Airbender when it aired when I was a kid. I remember thinking it was alright at the time but never understood why so many people are as attached to it as they are.
>have to cut 3 cards>can't get myself to do itHow the hell do you manage to do this?
>>96862988Still maintain they should have done FF as blocks or, for the ones that were Commander decks, should have been cut from the main set entirely. There’s a lot of material for more than just one set.
>>96863102It can be very hard to do, I won’t lie. Did another revision to my Vivi deck and had to decide whether to cut Murmuring Mystic and Foundations Niv-Mizzet or two spells for Everflowing Chalice and Tormod’s Crypt.
>>96863102if it's>not good on its own>not part of a game winning combo>doesn't cover a particular weakness of your colors (ex. withering torment for black)>not part of the "engine" (ramp, tutor, draw, etc.)there's a good chance it's worth cutting
>>96862925>>96862777> CMC 6Game ended 30 minutes ago, old man
>>96861722AntiUB fags are so fucking cringe and pathetic lol
Aside from this card itself, we have>23 firebend cards>17 earthbend cards>15 waterbend cards>5 airbend cardsWell anons, will this even split be enough to transform Aang successfully?
>>96861472real question is when are we getting better town support to actually make the other parts of this card relevant?
>>96863155No new town cards for 3 years minimum.
>>96863154does casting a card from airbend count? Because presumably you can transform him when you trigger his own firebending but what the fuck do you want to blink out first?
>>96863155when we get the FF follow up set in 3-4 years with the minstreling wanderer that also does something retarded in addition to playing with towns
I hope you didn't put counters on your commander anon
>>96862690Wen KOF set? I want make my Boros kween Mai deck
>>96863179>ub Damn
Oh shid I didn't even see this card. My tribal decks eatin good.
>>96863179fuck.....
>>96863206this card is dogshit for tribal decks>4 mana tapped rock lmaotoken decks, on the other hand, can make very good use of it
>>96863148Ok but why did you reply to me
>>96860290version 1added surge to victoryhttps://moxfield.com/decks/fDdYAKNEG02izfpJ-M8N_Q
>>96863227Because I didn't notice OPs crybaby attempt to erase UB by intentionally not linking the last thread
>>96863179That's actually really good fuck
>>96863238lmao you're insecure
>>96863206This card blows
>>96863252still gonna put it in my Ashcoat deck
>>96863238You do realize ub in this case is literally a cartoon for babies, right? Like one step removed from Arthur and the magic school bus. Don't be surprised when people don't like it.
>>96863250>no uI'm not the cringelord engaging in troontactics passively aggressively fucking up threads because I'm seething about images on trading cards. Again, antiubfags are embarassing manchildren and I'm glad they're experiencing genuine mental distress over it.
>>96863262But the UB in the last thread was FF based
>>96863264No, you're an insecure manchildA) because the previous thread linked ITT also has UB in the OPB) because this thread was made only 3 minutes after the real previous thread was made, and we're just recycling a mistaken bake (you were too busy being an insecure manchild to check the thread creation times and notice this)
>>96863262And was the last thread op pic avatar related you disingenuous fag? Would you prefer hyper mature grown up uw pics like Sami instead?
>>96863266To be fair it probably had nothing to do with ub, the threads were made at the same time, which is why the chain broke
>>96863270Nice false dichotomy you got there
>buzzwords buzzwords buzzwords>projection projection projection
Here are the bare bones of the casual avatar deck I want to make. My only rule on myself is no non-ATLA creatures. Some spells I can use during combat, flash enablers, etc. How we feeling?
>just found out Boneface did MTG art >the same artist who did the cover for my favorite album ever Wtf lads, you didn't tell me this.https://youtu.be/PFbvFhiWCCo
>>96862777It's acceptable UB Slop
>>96863288Fuck off wotc
>>96863293fuck off newfag
>>96862811imagine scooping for official anime art cards when this is what the normal art direction is instructed as lol
>>96863286I was thinking about building Fire Lord Azula but Aang seems like he'd be pretty nice to build around as well.
>>96863296>defends ub>calls someone else a newfag Holy tourism
>>96863302They should've made him look like this
>>96863148Unless they are anti-spider-man
>>96863179>1 mana imprisoned in the moon that can only hit creatureswell say hello to the obligatory UB card thats gonna be in every blue deck for years since it's so cheap and useful there's no reason not to slot it.not hitting planeswalkers or lands is a downside but being 3x as cheap is worth it
>>96863305I have no plans on being competitive, this basically would be a tier one, tier two at best. Seems like firebending is the focus, just shit out red mana and flash things in
>>96863322>there's no reason not to slot it.Not using slop
>>96863331>Not using slopno mechanical reasons I should say. I expect proxies and alters of the busted UB shit will become increasingly common for people who want their decks to at least resemble Magic
>>96863322But these aren't the same things at all?
>>96862506>cut this from Disa for literally just winning the game on the spotWhich version of the art do you like the best?
>>96863179>>96863205>>96863240>>96863322>>96863331>>96863338I think we'll see a universes within reprint of Honest work. The flavor isn't inherently tied to avatar at all.It's very similar to already existing cards:https://scryfall.com/card/snc/66/witness-protection
>>96863342mono blue single target enchantment removal that turns a creature into a colorless mana generator is a pretty specific niche. imprisoned in the moon can hit lands and planeswalkers (good) but its 3 mana (bad) while honest work is 1 mana (good) and can easily let you kill the creature once transformed (good) but can't hit lands or planeswalkers (bad)
>>96863349I just think it's nice that it removes all counters from the creature
>>96863352What is preventing me from just blocking and having the creature die and then just recast them?Cause I can't do that with imprison.
>>96861038New shrines, AND shrine support.These niggas are trying to lure me into standard with a shrine.dek, but I will resist.
>>96863354it also taps the creature so the turn you cast it they can't use the 1/1 as a chump blocker. just all around a pretty good card
>>96862777I find this wording confusing some how. Do you not lose the mana between steps and phases still? If you do why does it change color?
>>96863302He's so ugly. I'm always impressed by it. I'm sorry they removed him from the gamechanger list so people can shove him into their bracket three decks and I'll have to look at him.
>>96863360>and then just recast them?the creature goes to your graveyard when it dies, for one. If you're playing reanimate yeah sure but that applies to anything in the graveyard.
>>96860935>he biWhat did they mean by this?
>>96863360>What is preventing me from just blockingI wont attack you
>>96863373fool proof
>>96863373FUCKING DELETE THIS RIGHT NOW
>>96863238You are a retard. Stop making us look bad.
>>96861807Anon. That's cause "Azula, but she's not yet fire lord because her brother interrupted her and her egotistical ass decided to try and make an example of him but she jobs like a bitch and he becomes Fire Lord" wouldn't fit on the fucking card.
>>96863389nta but surely they could've come up with SOMETHINGI never watched avatar because I'm not pushing 30, but surely they coulda called her "Crown Princess Azula" or whatever
>>96863406>>96863389I think they called her Fire Lord because the fight was over who'd actually be the Fire Lord in the end, if Azula won she'd just finish the ritual
>>96863419okay but if you had two guys fighting over who gets to be God of all Creation and one of the guys lost you wouldn't call his card "Bob, God of all Creation" because he fucking lost and never got to be God of all Creation
>>96863426The card isn't the moment she lost though, it's the start of the fight between her and Zuko where both are fighting for the title of Fire Lord it's more like two Kahns fighting over who gets to be the next leader
>>96861807>Azula, Fire Lord to-beI fixed it
>>96863435She still loses canonically and never was at any point the fire lordYou wouldn't name the card "Great Khan Gerald" if Khan Gerald lost the fight in the lore and never got to be Great Khan>>96863437Yeah ig that works
How many dollary-doos will this be worth?
>>96863442I know she loses but she was given the title by her father, if they printed a card called Phoenix King Ozai would you be upset since he failed to take over the world?
>>96863389She doesnt job like a bitch, she nearly takes them 2v1 and only blows it because she doesn't know Zuko can redirect lightning
>>96863363Reading the card explains the card.
>>96863465>She doesnt job like a bitch, she nearly takes them 2v1 and only blows it because she doesn't know Zuko can redirect lightningWeird fan fiction
>>96863460>>96862777Turns out they did print one
>>96863460I have no idea what a phoenix king is since, like I said, I never watched the show
>>96863488Phoenix King is the self given title Ozai gives himself after declaring Azula is the next Fire Lord. He planned to take over the world while a comet that gave fire benders more power passed the earth it's the same comet that the fire benders used 100 years ago to destroy the air bendersTl;dr: Ozai called himself that when he tried taking over the world
>>96861807Im gonna masturbate to her again.
>>96863465If I have to explain hyperbole to another fucking mouthbreather in this SPECIFIC thread, I'm going to have a fucking brain bleed.
>>96863509Hyperbol deez nuts, faggot
>>96861807>expecting wotc to give a single shit about stories after abandoning their own IPelmao
>>96863322Anon there's already 2 cards that do this for 1 mana.
>>96863537bait
>>96863540How?Both cards (Witness Protection and Unable to Scream) take all the text off a creature and reduce its P/T to something meaningless. Honest Work isn't special in this regard and is actually arguably worse because it gives the creature a passable ability.
>>968634503-4
>>96863547I think Honest Work is alright since it forces the creature to tap, and removes all counters on the creature as well
I don't let anyone play against me if they use any rules caused by WotC's influence.Bracket discussion? No thanks. I'll stick with the 10 system.Hybrid cards outside your color identity? No thanks, I'm leaving.Commander isn't a creature? I'm leaving.Companion? I'm leaving.Commander with a death trigger? No thanks.Made mana outside your color identity? Nope.Returned your commander to the CZ after I used Oblation on it? I'm out.
>>96863577based beyond belief
>>96863570It taps the creature but it doesn't stay tapped. You get one turn to swing in but no more.
>>96863547oh whoops meant to reply to >>96863322 itselfthe only version arguably worth running more than moon is the split second onepeople just block with the 1/1 or sac it and are up and running again
>>96863577>his commander isnt a legendary elder dragonngmi
>>96863583One of them gives off a fruity energy and I can't tell why...

When using picrel, can you make a copy of your own commander?The main reason I ask is because to my knowledge, this card does not assume the name of the copied creature, and thus would not counter as a second. But I was informed the last time I utilized this in this way, that it wasn't possible because the act of "Copying" the creature would also copy the name even if its not specifically stated. I pushed back stating I've seen other cards that specifically reference the name when performing effects like this, but as someone who has only recently started playing again I did not want to push too much as the other person is someone I consider more knowledgeable just due to the length of time they've been playing the game compared to me.I mostly want to know for future reference when using this card.
>>96863826Copies copy the nameThe exceptions to my knowledge, all work in the opposite way, stating something along the lines of "you may have this creature etc... except its name is [whatever]."In any case, you can have it come into play as a copy of your commander, yes, but it copies all attributes of the card, including name and type line, so one of them will have to be sacrificed to the legendary rule.
>>96863826Yes you can target your commander but then the Legends rule will apply.If it doesn't say "except its name is X", like in the case of Sakashima the Imposter, it will copy the name, triggering the Legends rule.Exceptions like if it says "except it isn't legendary" in the case cards like of Spark Double, will let you have two copies with the same name.
>>96863841>in the case cards like of Spark DoubleMeant "in the case OF cards like Spark Double." Fuck I must have had a stroke writing that.
>>96862811>>Heralded LotR UB as a great future for MtGI could not be friends with people who think LotR MtG is good.

Genuinely a fantastic show, and one of my favorites. Still not an anime though.>>96863302A really fun card, shame about the artwork.

>>96863704It can be fun. Used to use this Nissa to similar effect and charging up lands to hit people was fun, if risky. The new Toph and earth bending in general removes most of that risk now so it's a lot more viable.

>>96864211Genuine mental illness, I will pray for you.
>>96863577You know what's funny about this post? If I met this man IRL, the only thing I would mock him for, other than his baby hate of UB, is the fact that his man is STILL crying about the tuck change! Get over it, no one wants to run 10+ tutors and protection spells just because you have a fetish for people not having access to their Commanders. If you really wanted to do that, in a more permanent way, there are at least 10+ combos that WILL permanently rid someone of their Commander. Tucking made decks far more samey AND less reliant on their Commander, which loses the whole fucking point of the format.
>>96862529i recently checked out the magus cycle, and man magus of the mind seems more fun in casual play than mind's desire, you only need to pay 1 mana during your storm turn if you untap with him. If they let you untap with him and you storm off they cant complain about your bullshit 15minute turn. Also mind's desire will have that autist at the table insist you shuffle every time for every copy.

>>96864570Because they support this kind of behavior.
>>96864159The reason earthbending doesn't suck compared to most similar mechanics is that if it dies or is exiled you get it back as a regular land which also triggers landfall abilities when it re enters.

>>96864918>retards at WotC didn’t make it a hard once per turn, thinking only lands being able to attack would be sufficientSo you play a card that makes your creatures into Forests and just keep attacking huh?Do designers even play the fucking game?

>>96864977How is that problem?
>>96865009Infinite combats are generally avoided in card design. I can’t think of a 2 card infinite combat combo of the top of my head, they’re usually 3 or more
>>96863287>getting read to shit all over you for liking dogshit music before I even clicked the link>queens of the stone agesorry, proceed
>>96865018It's a big mana, 100% telegraphed, combo with Ashaya that requires you to keep connecting with Bumi without him dying to execute. It's a jank combo that would be 100% fine even in casual tables. It's really not a problem at all.
>>96863302>sidecut>SJW hair colors>double chin>goiter neck>crooked teethhe's missing a wheelchair, a hint that he's a tranny, and shit-colored skin. could have been perfect.
>>96865018anon, one of the oldest "extra combat cards" first printed in fucking ONSLAUGHT has a ONE card combo for infinite combat phases.
>>96865037>I can just make up my own version of what you said and argue against that!Point to where I said PROBLEM. Because I didn’t. I said that it’s bad design. It is something that has been avoided for all of Magic’s history and it’s clear the designers just didn’t think about it. It not being the most busted OP bullshit you can do is fucking irrelevantWork on your reading comprehension
>>96865048speaking of combosall you need is 1 more instance of firebending and you got infinite combats
got me iron spider stark upgrade mary jane alt art at the london comiccon... just asked the guy if i could have it after the con finished while the hasbro stand packed up.Now i need to figure out a decklist. was thinking of a myr swarm deck but wasnt too sure.anyone here built iron spider stark upgrade and got cool tech and tips?
>>96865065(forgot to attach image)
>>96865048>5 mana every timeIn what world is that a 1 card combo? Where did you get infinite mana from you fucking retard?>inb4 firebending lets me break it now!!!!It doesn’t, read the last sentence of the card you posted
>>96865065Firebending Student goes infinite with AA.
>>968650752 card combo with stuff like reaver cleaver
>>96865083no it doesn't, you specifically need something to keep unspent mana like >>96865073aggravated assault can only be activated as a sorcery and firebending mana goes away after combat phase they were at least smart enough to realize this
>>96865086>it’s a 1 card combo>actually no it isn’tThank you.
>>96865072Yeah here’s a tip, put it in the garbage you UBpiggy
>>96865065Speaking of firebending>Forgestoker Dragon>Atarka Pummeler>Dragon Whisperer>Xantcha
>>96865093(I'm a different anon, the one who said it was a 1 card combo was stupid) but it's still a pretty powerful combo piece that lets you turn anything that generates mana through combat into an infinite
>>96863309Cyberpunk ub when?
Is Avatar the last airbender even a relevant IP and does it even have some many fans? Who is this set even for, I don't know anyone who watched this show including me. Even the Spider Man UB has more meaning to me.
>>96865122it's prime nostalgia bait among millenials who are spending by far the most on MtG
>>96865105really firebending is fun red mechanic I am going to get increasingly pissed off is tied to a single UB set over the coming yearsunless they make an evergreen alternative
>>96865122>the zoomies are now so young they didn’t even watch AvatarFuck man, were you like 3 when it first aired or something? They reran it on Nickelodeon for years so you’d have to be so fucking young to have not been in the target demographic when it was rerunning
>>96865122>Who is this set even for,30-something millenials with disposable income who were kids when ATLA aired in 2005 and who have been carrying a torch for it ever since despite it getting nothing in the last decade+ besides extremely shitty comics and a divisive sequel that faced cancellation each season and threw out 95% of the worldbuilding/setting/lore to focus on steampunk roaring 20's not-newyorkso it's a pretty limited demographic all things considered, but they're probably disproportionately represented among MTG players for the same reason like 0.2% of the population is trans yet LGS are full of them
>>96865175But anon youre forgetting that there is a new season coming in 2027 that will canonise that shitty steampunk sequel and TOTALLY WILL NOT make a whole plot point of the world blaming Korra for a catastrophe that will be revealed to not actually be her fault
>>96865192>that will canonizeIt's already canon, anon.
>doesn't work with ChangelingsSad
>>96865225how does mutate interact with this?
>>96865091>firebending mana goes away after combat phaseExcept the card says it doesn't.
>>96864977There are plenty of extra combat cards that don't have hoops to jump through. If you have Bumi and Ashaya on the board with a bunch of creatures congrats on your bracket 2 deck getting to do its thing.
>>96865309firebending student by itself isn't an infinite which is what I was referring to
>>96862325I don't regret this post one bit
>don't know anything about avatar>never watched the show>never read the comics>get to enjoy it>can pretend it's a new plane with cartoon artPretty comfy
>>96865324I think this is what the kids call "cope"
I'm glad UB is actually upsetting some of you.
>>96865338why?
>>96865317Okay anon, you tell us how you would go about infinite combats without jumping through hoops.
>>96865341Because he’s very emotionally insecure and needs others to be unhappy to feel better about his own life
>>96865331I mean honestly as far as cope goes it's pretty decent. It feels more fantasy than EOE/DFT.
>>96860564>Yes.The saga is sacrificed the moment it resolves the last part of the saga.Wrong. A saga is sacrificed when it has as many (or more) lore counters as it's largest chapter number, so long as it has no chapter abilities on the stack. This means you can trigger the final chapter ability, remove a lore counter before it resolves, and keep the saga.https://mtg.fandom.com/wiki/Saga>714.4. If the number of lore counters on a Saga permanent is greater than or equal to its final chapter number, and it isn’t the source of a chapter ability that has triggered but not yet left the stack, that Saga’s controller sacrifices it. This state-based action doesn’t use the stack.
2 mana removal+trigger damage effects+ritual and possibly pay for itself and then some+float mana until end of turn seems pretty good. especially since there's been so much power creep in terms of prowess/spell synergy cards that can easily balloon to ridiculous sizes. a Plotted slickshot giving you 10+ mana is totally doable with this
>>96865347Aggravated Assault and that one dragon that makes big mana when you attack
>>96865065You go infinite with Roku and AA
>>96865225that art looks unfinished af
>>96865347>Okay anon, you tell us how you would go about infinite combats without jumping through hoops.with avatar all you need is hellkite charger+at least seven firebending to go infinite. they were pretty generous with firebending with lots of cards having 2 to 4 and sozin's being all creatures get 5 so it's not gonna be hard to pull off.hellkite is nice since it doesn't even require any of the "unspent mana doesn't empty" effects since they're both attack triggers
>think about it for a second>hey I could probably make necrotic ooze work in just mono black>check edh rec to make sure its not already a super popular thing>50% of K'rrik decks >way more efficient combos than I was looking atI gotta stop checking edhrec and just build stuff I want to
>>96865364You lose that mana between phases, Agg Ass is sorcery speed. Try again.
>>96865347I like Cursed Mirror + Combat Celebrant + Mishra
Did they show any Mai cards yet?
>>96865402How is having Hellkite and Firebending 7 on board not jumping through hoops?
>>96865409Reread Savage Ventmaw.
>>96865362We did it boys, we found a way to break the card that raped Standard for a year.
really you just need AA and pic related
>>96865413Hoops
>>96865426uh oh the retard is back. from this point onwards just know most replies to any of your posts will be in bad faith
>>96865402Okay Hellkite isn’t indestructible so I just block that one.>inb4 how would you make Bumi indestructibleWith one of the best 2 mana Green instants in the game, Heroic Intervention
>>96865417I mean any 2 card combo is gonna be at least 2 hoops. The fact that Hellkite doesn't need a SPECIFIC 2nd card to combo with, just Firebending in general, makes it a lot more flexible. If you just run every Firebending card (and probably have a Firebending Commander) you're virtually guaranteed to have enough sources of Firebending to work with it by the time you play hellkite. And dragons are one of the easier creatures to tutor for or cheat into play as red.A specific 2 card combo is much lower probability of drawing in a game than a card that can "combo" with any of a dozen possible options. It's the same reason altars/artistocrats are reliable when run with a bunch of different sac and drain outlets, you don't need any specific one in particular, just one of each.
>>96865434Sounds like you’re mad you couldn’t live up to your own standard
>>96863803>effectgetting this wrong is the surest sign of low iq
>>96865425aww fuck I was thinking of building him as my first mono red commander but now he is ruined
>>96865457
>>96865436>heroic interventionif you're doing infinite combat phases to win you might as well go all out with heroic intervention. either pop off and go infinite and win or lose and instantly scoop. also gives you an turn to draw and untap mana to set up the combo. then again I'm a shameless shill for chance for glory and boros in general
>>96865425Is there anything that distinguishes this from Firebending 6?
>>96865473note that it's whenever A player attacks, not YOU attack. in a 4-person pod this is giving 24 mana a turn if everyone swings
>>96865473firebending is when that creature attacks, avatar roku triggers when any player attacks with any number of creatures
>>96865479>>96865483I predict Roku Goad decks driving people into a frenzy even if they end up not being that good. nothing makes bad players madder than being "forced" to do something (even if goading is often worse than direct removal, Fights, etc) and cheating mana
>>96865479>>96865483I'm dumb I caught this the first time I saw the card then mentally filtered it out.
>>96865169It completely passed my radar just like most of the IPs there are UBs for, I was watching Samurai Jack instead if that could even be comparable.
>>96865512samurai jack secret lair would be coolbut what's more likely is teen titans go!

>>96865341Because it's one of the stupidest things imaginable to invest any emotional energy into and the only way the company would ever stop it is if all its detractors stopped buying and playing the game which antiub types also refuse to do. It's classic lolcow behavior and I like laughing at stupid people who cry about stupid shit, doubly so if they actually have the power to solve their problems but refuse to do so. To me antiub malding is no different than 600lb lifers sobbing it's water weight they can't lose because they can't stopping eating 12 donuts and 4 litres of soda every day or homeless fet heads getting forcibly bottomed by other meth zombies in their street tents and crying about the injustices of society are keeping them down while millions of other people who are struggling are able to keep the needle out of their arm.TLDR lolcows are extremely funny and antiub manchildren are the biggest lolcows in nerd hobbies atm

>>96866101>avoid decking myself.but why would you?
>>96866066I didn't, other people did, people who should read that card again Ozai is Firebending 4 so it's not a 2 card combo with AA, Roku is 6 mana so it's not a 2 card combo with >>96865402they actually thought it through for once

>>96866101Literally any red burn spell with rituals turning those cards into mana. Your opponents lose the game before the draw trigger resolves.
>>96866101Good on you for trying to make your more interesting, I would go with the feldon's cane effects.Add a psychosis crawler and then it wont matter so much. there are also effects like Sphinx's Tutelage that might be worth looking into.

>>96866276it "stacks" just like annihilator, they're still separate triggers so if you stifle it'll only hit one but you get the full benefit of both
honest opinions on this?
>>96866311Terrible with terrible art
>>96866337Ok Baron Greywater
>>96866311Cowboy Hats Bad
>>96866311>yet another character with dark complexion and ambiguous gender
>>96866311boring, ugly and far too expensive for what it does
>>96866311Don't even bother asking here. The second they see a cowboy hat, they're just going to say it bad, as seen here: >>96866337 >>96866348 >>96866360At least this post makes a half assed attempt to tell you why you shouldn't use it, other that "I hate cowboy hats and niggers".
>>96866311Doesn't seem worth running over just a regular ritual to me.
I hate cowboy hats and niggers
>>96866380I meant this post here >>96866363. And yeah, it is too expensive. If it was 1 less mana, it would be fine but 4 mana is too much for this effect.
>>96866380I don't care about cowboy hats, the art is still bad and the card is legitimately awful.
Reminder that OTJ would've been universally beloved if they hadn't redditified the setting
>>96866409I don't think they could have made a western themed set without it being corny.
>>96866409They're always going to have to flanderize to some extent when doing a hat set. I think the marvel quipfest style that is so popular these days really fucks them over. It both takes itself too seriously but the lighthearted and silly bits also aren't silly enough.
>>96866409>BLB: bad mechanics, good setting/artWidely praised>OTJ: good mechanics, bad setting/artWidely hatedFunny how it works
>>96866409did people dislike OTJ? The three girls at my LGS literally bought so many packs they ran out
Rest of that teatime scene got spoiled.
>>96866520
>>96866531
>>96866520oh so this is the dedicated slop printed straight for edh by wotc; ""rewarding"" you for paying more commander tax on subsequent casts
>>96866538
>>96866548
>>96866444Westerns are quite capable of being serious, but what they made was a sort of theme park version of a western setting. The magic laser pistols, the super-cacti as trees, the weird flying trains, etc. For it to work I think they would've needed to be a bit more subtle with the magic, but instead they made it extremely cartoony. Very similar in my view to the way D&D has become increasingly magenta, and every party is some bizarre assortment of increasingly outlandish races.>>96866476Yeah, I'd agree with that. As with so many things, it's Joss Whedon's fault in the end.
>>96866554For neatness' sake I'll also post the one that was already known.
>>96866548I like this one
>>96866547Welcome to over a decade ago
>>96866531>>96866538Wtf these characters arent black or gay. Im so disappointed
>>96866568It's not even that it was too outlandish, it's that it just... Didn't do anything with being a western beyond vague aesthetics. There's indigenous-coded people but they're just dressed like cowboys too, there's literally one fucking actual horse in the set, there's no saloons, no gambling, the aesthetic of the not-guns makes the crackshot-like things feel less slick... Basically High Noon is the only card that feels like a western card.
>>96866580>avatar>not gay
>>96866602unironically less homosexual than mtg
>>96866585I'd argue final showdown too, but yeah that's pretty much what I meant by "theme park version of a western". It feels all very artificial. I legit thought this girl was a star wars proxy when I first saw her.
Firebending seems pretty fun honestly, you can build it in some different ways. Activated abilitiy tribal, flash tribal, or just cast a bunch of instants.
>>96866631I get that it's ostensibly a villains set first, western second, but the villains stuff ALSO doesn't really come across because it's all muddled by them dressing up.
>>96866631the "can't believe it's not a gun" things still look idiotic
>>96866631hmm I like that card. I think I'm going to build it. Thanks!
>>96866643shame it's a UB mechanic
>>96866101How to avoid decking yourself:>discard outlet on board (ghostly pilferer is the preferred one iirc) >shuffle titan in the deck (the kozilek that draws you cards on cast is the preferred one)
>>96866531Well that's busted
>>96866650Was it a villains set? Was there anyone else but Akul as the villain from it? And that guy barely got any expression in card form beyond his own card.
>>96866568>Very similar in my view to the way D&D has become increasingly magenta, and every party is some bizarre assortment of increasingly outlandish races.This hits deep. There aren't even any tieflings or dragonkin in BG1 and yet we find 4 in the climax of that game on a card. The tiefling throwing a tomato at Saerevok is unintentionally a poignant distillation of this shift.
>>96866650It's another thing that makes it feel like a theme park and not a proper setting. All these guys we already know in themed costumes starring in a western heist movie for some reason.>>96866673It's just burn, but knock yourself out.
>>96866750I like burn. The more I play edh the more I realize it's fun to play very basic magic.
>>96866730Yeah it has Geralf and Gisa and Vraska and Eriette and shit in it
>>96866631is it just me or are these names getting harder and harder to remember?
>>96865425>free 6/6 with targeted firebreathingDownside? I can feel it coming.
>>96866765one of these is not like the others.its rakdos. rakdos isnt like the others. he's actually good. kinda insane to be honest
>>96866765Oh yeah, I forgot about Eriette. I guess I saw most of these guys as just bumblers or whatever. Not so much villains. May have just been the goofiness of the set that did that. Most of the bad stuff people were doing on the various instants and sorceries where they could have shown people being villains instead had nameless dudes doing stuff.
>>96866783ya the Rakdos arty goes hard ngl. Like Doom vibes
>>96866585>There's indigenous-coded people You mean injuns?
>>96866548Lmao I'm gonna steal so many one rings with this
>>96866895I like the way you stink
>>96866348>>96866380>>96866393Why are cowboy hats considered bad?
>>96866547oh so this is the dedicated slop printed straight for edh by wotc; "rewarding" you for playing the format
>>96866917Purely aesthetic reasons. I just think they look goofy and out of place.
>>96866945ur-dragon wasn't printed in standardand yes he's the definition of WUBRG slop and a mistake
Deckbros?
are you guys still gargling sw*rdbros ball sack over the color changes?
>>96866960that is exactly the pointwe have been fed and eating "slop" since forever, but this time you don't like the slop
>he plays good cardsunimaginably unhinged faggotry
>>96866968slop?
>>96866960>>ur-dragon wasn't printed in standardNeither is that specific Toph card, TLE is the shit that's going directly to eternal formats.Here's your standard legal made for commander slop though.
>>96867060GC in 2026 100%
>>96866631if the hybrid change goes though, I'm putting godhead of awe in her deck
>>96867067he should stay banned, absolute ass design being the commander commander for anything. You can easily build him in any colours because of his unrestricted casting cost and then fetches your best land
>>96867068I really really really like this image
>>96867068now that ATLA has legitimized putting literal close ups of faces as cards (very lazy even for UB) i'm sure some autist will proxy the entire wotc team for shits and giggles
I feel like it's more acceptable (based purely on player reactions) to threaten a turn 4 win than to play a mild stax piece like Blind Obedience at my LGSIs this normal?
>>96866568>the super-cacti as treesI think some exaggerated landscapes is fine and helps the environment stand out, but yeah the magic laser pistols and shit are fucking retarded reddit tier.>it's Joss Whedon's fault in the end.I like his early stuff like Firefly, but god damn did the prevalence of his "Marvel" writing style overtake literally all of western entertainment to a severe detriment.>>96866585>indigenous-coded people but they're just dressed like cowboys tooIf they weren't, it'd be a little too racist. (not racist at all but its WotC)
>>96867105We've had that since those ugly-ass special frame profile shots from modern horizons
>>96867105What cards in ATLA are just a face closeup?
>>96867128no other card is THIS close to the cameraman
>>96867137But is that real?
>>96867108Or course it is. No one wants to deal with stax.
>>96867145UB is real and here to stay anon, let it go
>>96867145yes
>>96867137>>96867145Seems it is. I wasnt caught up. Was confused when someone said there are cards that are screencaps of the show.I think that was fine for Final Fantasy, having official art, but the cartoon screencaps are a bit weird looking now that I'm scrolling through them. Kind of a shame, considering I actually think the rest of the art is pretty nice.>>96867157Yeah, I agree. But not what I meant.Also if marvel and TMNT sets keep flopping, maybe it won't be as prevalent as once expected. Its clear that even in UB, "flavor" matters a lot to people
>>96867108authority of the consuls goes in every white deck and I'm not sorryyou want to play fast games fuck off back to arena BO1 standard
>>96867108Nothing gets you hated out of a game faster than mild inconveniences People get more mad about blind obedience than they do rhystic study on average.
They will NEVER print another card like this anymore bros
>>96867230Theres a lot of cool cards they will never make anything like again thanks to the WotC rot.
>>96867108>is this normal?your LGS is more casual than the averagethey clearly have no concept of a combo from the command zone that will pop off 100% of the time in just a few turns (bracket 4)
>>96867137I think one of the reasons I never got into the show as a kid was the animation looked so shit. Everything looks blurry or like they smeared it with a vaseline filter.
>>96867245Not that anon, but clearly I have no concept of that either. 99 cards and a guaranteed pop off just seems crazy to me. But I guess theres 30 years worth of cards to stacks the deck with, so what do I know.
>>96867230a staple in my oros theme deck>the theme becomes very obvious very quickly
>>96867255Oh man I have been STRUGGLING with Oros. ya got a list?
>>96867271a real list or a list to shit up a bracket 1 pod with muh racism?
>>96867068cursed image plz delet
>>96867278I would be interested in both dezu sandpie
>>96866978What on earth does this even mean
>>96867302He's mad that some tripfag disagrees with him.
>>96867230I swear there was a card like this spoiled in the last 12 monthsI cannot find it on scryfall thoughthis is driving me crazy
On a couple rare occasions, I didn't have it.
>>96867230> infinite combo slopAnd thats a good thing
>>96867348>wont print cool cards because of stuffy doll >prints egregious combo pieces anyway
>>96867278nta but can I get the racism list
>had it>forgot I had itI'm mad to this day.
>>96867381>didn't have it>told opponent I had it>opponent scooped>realized I didn't have it >still feel bad about it
>>96867391>didn't have it>opponent out of the game tells me I have it>i really had it all along
>>96867381>>96867391>>96867433>didn't have it>bluffed that I had it>leave mana open as if I have it>opponent makes his play warily>I lose
>hadn't had it ever>tell them I have it>they always call my blufffeels bad man
>>96867381>didn't have it>had open mana in case I had it>opponent scooped thinking I had itThis has happened more than a few times. Some people would rather scoop than see if their opponents had the out.
>had it>opponent doesn't care, let's me have it>lose
>>96867321This maybe
FRESH and NEW>>96867493>>96867493>>96867493
>>96867391>>didn't have it>>told opponent I had it>>opponent scooped>>realized I didn't have it>>still feel bad about itThats half of playing Izzet, anon.Tell your opponent you have it, even if you dont
>>96867145https://scryfall.com/card/tle/24/cruel-tutoryes it's real, it looks like a fucking shitpost but thats actually what the card looks likeit's literally a screenshot too, artist credit is just the episode it's cropped from
>>96867712I think this artwork fits alot better, don't know why they didn't go with something like this
>>96867712They're all screengrabs is the point, one per episode, but it's... Very poorly done.
>>96867749Thats really fitting, especially given the moment and even the dialogue spoken in that scene."You will learn respect, and suffering will be your teacher."
>>96867255>>96867271>>96867278Later today I can take a picture of my Oros deck I threw together a few weeks ago. It's barely a bracket 2 and needs work, but that's part of the fun. I probably took inspiration from one anon I'm quoting here. Nothing but white creatures, lots of deathtouch equipment.
Avatar is just gay as fuck like all UB Troon slop
I want to run pic related as an elf tribal commander. Are there any cool elf-specific enchantments or am I just windmill slamming anthems like nobodys business?
>>96861807slop, who cares.
