>>97240162>>97240162Just buy the cards from them as you would use them. I bought the Umezawa's Jitte for under the cost of the lair and I had no need for the other cards in it so I saved money by not buying it.

>>97240665>>97240508This is banned at my LGS. Metas centered around tutoring this card out. Its extremely busted with trample and any number of other effects.
>>97240684bait
>>97240476Then what you want is land ramp up to 3cmc.Nature's lore, three visits, farseek if you need fixing, cultivate, kodama's reach. Sol ring if your average cmc is above 2.5 without lands.Anything beyond that should be synergistic or more land ramp (rampant growth, harrow, wood elves).
>>97240380You haven't heard? Ramp is out. Wotc has lowered average cmc so much its actually to your detriment to waste turns ramping.

>>97240316You play that deck completely wrong, you build it Sunforger tribal with every burn spell you can find in the colors, use her to make lightning bolt hit for 6 (plus the ping from guttersnipe after the bolt etc) suddenly everyone is sweating and you have a hand full of ICBMs with 7 mana untapped
>>97240737>Sunforgerevery morning an idiot wakes up and thinks sunforger is viable.
>>97240316Was playing a guy 1v1, was his only monster out and I had no blockers. But I had enough mana for this. Dude scooped.
>>97240753I've had similar situations with Kor Haven
>>97240746I'm only playing 3s, its fine with my "unviable" commander.
>>97240489no
>>97240489You need 6 creatures for 36 power (and thus being able to reliably drop a player). If someone sees this thing in the command zone, sees your full board and does nothing, they deserve to be Flung to death.

>>97240884What king of person exactly spends time at an LGS on Christmas eve? Do you live in a college town?
So which 5-6 cost draw equal to power cards are the best? Which do YOU prefer?
>>97240912>shit lotusMox Poison played around with this. >shit ringI think it would be overpowered even if it entered tapped.
>>97240260Depends entirely on your group. Some games it will draw and draw and others it will just sit there and do nothing.
>>97240926Rishkar's, Season, Return, Kyoshi, Lifestreamin that order assuming no other synergies.
>>97240912the first one needs to tap so it can be turned off by kismet type effects, but it's the same rate as ritual plus it burns you. it's probably fine.the second one is too strong, even as colorless, maybe even tapped. colorless mana matters a decent amount now.
>>97240926it obviously depends on what deck you're playing if you've got fatties you want expertise, if you're going wide or have the option to you get return, etc.
>>97240944But if Sol ring can exist, why can't a shot version of it exist?
>>97240087>turn commander into 1 v 1 singleton
>>97240912Shit lotus is broken. Free mana is ipso facto busted in mtg.Shit Ring will be printed eventually, it is very strong, but within reason. I've posited this for many years.
>>97240354Someone got me a duskmourn bundle thing that came with the Valgavoth precon and a pack from EoE, foundations, and duskmournI pulled an Icetill from the EOE pack
>>97240954People have been asking for sol ring to be banned since the first time they printed it in a precon. It's not a good measuring stick for balancing cards.
>>97240954Sol Ring can only exist because it was grandfathered into the format by the original founders. It is banned in Legacy, restricted in Vintage, and every 1v1 commander variant like Duel or Leviathan bans it. It's genuinely Mox-tier in brokenness.
>>97240354It's amazing to me how people went ballistic over "pointing spider-man card" or in universe meme cards but "XD MY CABBAGES" On like 10 cards is just quenchy and based.
>>97240955>t. bad deckbuilder

>>97240684>This is banned at my LGS.Shops like this are the absolute worst shops possible. I'd rather sell my cards than play at these places.
>>97240954Sol Ring is one of the most broken card ever printed and only gets to be allowed because it's le iconic
>>97240704The collecting blitz of old games was caused by the popularity of the AVGN. Which started 21 years ago.
>>97240884What did he mean exactly?
>>97240984>failed legacy player
>>97240986it's pretty rough, buddyI must go hide in my SECRET TUNNNEEEELLL
>>97240940>>97240952I think you're underestimating Kyoshi as any blink effect or counter manipulation can trigger her again, and she turns into the strongest version of a mana dork. The land as an extra body is also nice. I would say Rishkars and Wildspeaker are also up there, Wildspeaker being a potential finisher (though I think it is expensive compared to stampede or something), and Rishkars a 5cc free cast is nice but it depends on what.
>>97240998I think he means the player thought Narset Enlightened Exile couldn't exile a sorcery and cast it as part of her resolution and thought you would have to wait until main phase two to cast it at sorcery speed. And same with cascade. Which is a wild mistake to make.
>>97240998I swung and tried to cast call forth the tempest from someone's graveyard and he said it wouldn't work because its a sorcery. I explained that, yes I could, effects like hers and the cascade allow it to buypass timing restrictions and he said no, cascade didn't let me do that either and that's one of the reasons cascade is overrated.
>>97241027so Kyoshi is strong in counter or blink decks, wildspeaker is strong in wide decks and rishkar is strong in decks with fatties, which both of us just said that it depends on the deck / synergies you have
>>97241008>failed edh player
>>97240258Most of the angels are horribly outdated. Pisses me off because I want to run angel waifu tribal but it's a bracket 1 deck now and every new UW angel we get is DEI'd out the ass and made to look as ugly as possible and any cute UB potentially angel/angel adjacent card basically has nothing mechanically to do with them or has a 99 effect.
I think my favorite thing about this thread is when people with no experience with something try to argue that the person with objective experience is wrong.
>>97241041Please quit posting stories like this, it makes us commander enjoyers look like retards
>>97240994They know its broken, and they know it should be banned or at least a GC, but they fucked themselves over because to do it now would make every precon that has ever come out instantly be bracket 3 or an illegal deck.The "iconic" comment was just a smokescreen so people might not realize they were just incompetent about it since their first official commander products.
>>97241099There are a lot of retards out there anon. Some people are told incorrect information and just take it as gospel.
>>97241073Unc mad that he's wrong
>>97241114Unc also mad he bad lmao
>>97240901It's pretty impressive how combo manages to simultaneously be both the most braindead and low iq way to play the game but also gets memed by the midwits who make up 80% of the player base as being the most intelligent playstyle.
>>97241141This, its not impressive to mulligan until you get a way to get to your line as fast as possible, usually a tutor.
>>97240939creatures never do nothing
treefolk, saporling or ape/monkey tribal?
>>97240926return is objectively the best, but i like season for being bloomburrow and the modality is good.
>>97240901Incredibly based and trueCombo is lazy and unintelligent So amusing that the so called "smart" color of blue is actually the most played by midwits
>>97241173Saporling is the least based of the 3.Treefolk is the most based.
>>97241188True, red is the real gigachad color
>>97241203

>Playing commander since 2014>It was the format that got me into Magic>As it gets more poppular newere players get the CARD ENVY and want to ban expensive cards because they cant afford them>Pretty much every newer commander player just talks about what cards they think should be banned>The format is full of pussies and narcissist fags who want to tell people what they can and cant play>Find out that Wizards has taken over the format and Commander banlist is probably doomed as fuck for real since nu commander platers are poor + retarded and want to ban cards they are too shit to afford or dont likeThe format was fun while it lasted, do you guys think Wizards is going to shit it up or no? Pretty much any time Wizards puts its hand on something is to predatorily monetize it these days
>>97241281>The format was fun while it lasted, do you guys think Wizards is going to shit it up or no?Did that with brackets. I do not consider brackets to be commander.
>>97241281Bans are a good thing. No one wants to see you run 3 dual lands and Gaeas Cradle and your Mox collectionNow end your life
>>97241314Bans of shit that should not be banned are bad actually
>>97240684Bait but I do find it funny how a similar situation emerged in my playgroup.All I do is play dragon decks. I do not run any creatures in my decks unless they are a dragon (changelings do not count fuck you). However I'm also the best deckbuilder in the group by a lot by sole virtue of realizing my decks should maybe include card selection and focus the deck on one thing instead of five. The takeaway other players got was "dragons are OP" and started trying to build dragon decks.
>>97241281>>97241294Rule 0 has always been a thing. Discussion of power level were always a thing.Brackets made it much, much easier to tell when the person who used to say their deck was a 5-7 was is actually lying to you because now you know exactly was is meant for each bracket you're playing it.I can only assume if you don't like this fact, its because you're just a faggot pubstiomper and now its harder, though not impossible, to bullshit people.
>>97241324>All I do is play dragon decks. I do not run any creatures in my decks unless they are a dragon (changelings do not count fuck you).Based homosexual flying lizard enjoyer
>>97241329>Brackets made it much, much easier to tell when the person who used to say their deck was a 5-7 was is actually lying to you because now you know exactly was is meant for each bracket you're playing it.Bullshit and you know it. Know the way you do this is to run hyper optimized kinnan and tell your playgroup he just a little guy, totally B2 btw
>>97241281>get into game through for-fun format>fails to understand why bans are a thing in every other formatyeah checks out
>>97240973That's rough buddy
>>97241355Just because Primetime has ruined many formats doesn't mean it won't ruin commander, unban him.
>>97241314Dual lands aren't even broken. They should be reprinted in every precon.
>>97241380If they aren't good lands, why the need for every proxyfag to run them? Why can't a guild gate or basic work just as well?
>>97241380Average proxytard right here
>>97241395They're great lands but not broken. Reprinting them in to the ground and making them easily accessible to everyone would help the format more than hurt it.
>>97241420how is encouraging high color slop improving the format
>UB Bluey when
>>97241417I don't proxy them and nta but I think everyone should have access to them. Running a bad land base just because you don't want to spend money on a better one just makes your deck stumble more often because of bad luck and bad draws. That doesn't make for interesting gameplay, especially when paying more money will just make your deck objectively better as the alternative.
>>97241440The format was designed around the 3 color elder dragons, newfag
>>97241440oh thats some bracket 1 bait.
>>97241380>You have what I want if you dont give me it im going to ban it>>97241355Because they are competitive, you are making a non point and framing it as a point lol.>>97241329Rule 0 there doesnt need to be a banlist you can just rule 0 anything you dont like.The entire point of the banlist is to homogenize how people play despite it being a 4fun format.The psychology of the banlist means no one will allow you to play any banned card even if its not that bad.The banlist exists entirely to make narcissist descision makers feel like they are important, its easier to just have no bans and rule 0 anything you dont like as a playgroup.>>97241395Og duals in terms of price/power is not that good.You have 40 life losing 2 is pretty negligible.People complain about Og duals because they are unironically just a symbol of opression to poor magic players and its funny because the cards in terms of power are pretty benign, fetch lands are significantly more powerful in most decks.Just another case of "I want what you have and if you dont give it to me im going to ban it"
>>97241329I don't care. I'm not using them. Don't bother arguing. I will not use your brackets in a box. I will not use them with a fox. I will not use your brackets, anon I am
>>97241481thisbracket autism is a scooby doo mask situation and the people behind it are the same people who brought you gear score and effectively killed MMOsnerds should never, ever, ever, ever be left in charge of evaluating casual play in a game of any kind
>>97241420>They're great lands but not brokenThey are the BEST lands, and have been since alpha.>But what about cradleThose are actually very piss poor by themselves, but are powerful when used correctly.A dual land that can be fetched and comes into play untapped with no downsides are the most powerful lands by a large margin.
>>97241481>>97241496on top of that its extremely jewish trickery to convince you to use a system that will transparently put new players on an expensive elevator ride to (((bracket 4))) instead of organically discovering new cards in a fun way through kitchen table play, and to somehow think you're getting value out of doing it
>>97241454>Running a bad land base just because you don't want to spend money on a better one just makes your deck stumble more oftenThen play at the power level your landbase allows your deck to play at instead of cheating.
>>97241517Incredible bait. Proxies aren't cheating you troon
breakthrough technology that renders traditional games copyrights useless when?
When people say to e.g. run at least 10 single target removal, are they talking about single target creature removal specifically, or artifact / enchantment / land removal counts into that too?
>>97241517But what if I literally own the dual lands
>>97240649You nutter
>>97241566Then why would you be complaining that your deck's landbase is holding you back?
>>97241468>whining about jlo ban>also i dont like this format being competitiveretard who sucks at the game signals
>>97241528this general hates proxies more than troons
>>97241608>Not refuting any of the legitimate points I made and just calling me "Bad at the game" or somethingOkay.
>>97241454Maybe consider running 2 color decks and not wubrg sloppa
>>97241417Gavin agrees with him.
>>97241643>Just play the things you aren't interested in playingNo.
>>97241649Gavin is a retardGavin agrees with anonAnon is a retard
>>97241559Depends on your deck and your meta. In bracket 2 and low 3, you can get away with mostly creature removal. In bracket 3 and high 3, you want a mix. In bracket 4 and cedh, noncreature removal and counterspells are more valuable. In casual play especially, the more versatile your removal, the better. I'v One Generous Gift and one Beast Within you know will get rid of what you need it to is better than a Swords to Plowshares and a Nature's Claim that are more efficient but might not hit what needs to go, and you'll likely have the time to find the mana you need to play them. The opposite becomes more true as you move from casual to competitive.
>>97241643I only run 1-2 colour decks because I like building budget but I don't find it enjoyable when I win because the Caesar across from me just didn't find the right colours in the first 5 turns of the game.
Don't argue with whales, it's like arguing with a woman.
>>97241684Nah, if you dont make over 80k on your own you dont deserve to have hobbies.
>>97241693Mtg whales aren't rich, they're just bad with money and will never own a home or retire. Or they're on benefits so it's not their money anyway.
>>97241693>80kThis is like poverty level here
>>97241693I don't make even 30k a year, and I still own some trueduals. You can put 10 dollars away a paycheck and you'll get there eventually. People just want instant gratification.
>>97241710Its enough to live alone, put 1500 aside for retirement, and have 500 left over per month for hobbies.
>>97241528It literally is. The game is about making the best decks with cards you own. Using cards you don't own and won't ever own is very much cheating.Sure, its like doping. Everyone does it, you know everyone does it, but its still cheating.
>>97241747I would agree if there wasn't cards that are legal but WOTC will never reprint. I dont proxie, I buy what I want, but I dont worry over others playing proxies. Plus it lets me play stronger decks.
>>97241762>if there wasn't cards that are legal but WOTC will never reprint.There's nothing on the RL that any deck absolutely needs.That also don't stop you from buying them if you really think you need them for your deck.
>>97241710it's enough for a big house in the woods herei drive an hour to get to my lgs
>>97241788EVERY CEDH rank requires those cards? Sure lower brackets dont but its *fine* to actually play CEDH every once in a while with a pod (I actually dont care for CEDH, its too cheezy and B4 is about the peak where its super optimized pet decks but its whatever).Its especially more prevalent as the power curve has turned up overtime.
>>97241693All the best hobbies are cheap or even free.>Fitness>Reading>Writing>Drawing>CookingI say this as a person with a CEDH deck worth more than late model used car.
>>97241701I own a home and I bought a Wheel of 4chan, Mana Vault, TOR, Mox Amber, Mox Opal, Consecrated Sphinx, and Cyclonic Rift for my no-combos allowed izzet deck
> oh, you want the print that isnt dogshit? Thatll be 5 more dollary-doos.
>>97241816None of those are hobbies and should be done by everyone for their own sake. Not sure why not being fat, stupid and unhealthy is a hobby.
>>97241805>EVERY CEDH rank requires those cards>LED and True DualsI'm sure if those cards were banned tomorrow those decks would still work just fine. They sure as fuck would still work as high power 4s. Your tinybones deck can manage without Chians, I assure you. Your elf-ball deck will work just fine with growing rites instead of creadle.

>>97241942
I think I finally figured out why I enjoy artifact decks the most from what I've played so far and I guess it might be just my ADHD leakingeven if my hand is shit, I'm losing, have dogshit boardstate etc., I'm at least almost always able to do SOMETHING practically every turnmost artifacts tap for something, draw you a card, fetch a card from the graveyard, look at the top cardfuck, even if I'm essentially paying 3 mana and 2 life just to put two 0/1 goats on to the battlefield 2 turns in a row, it feels better than just casting dragon fodder and passingam I retarded? do other deck types have similar feel?
>>97241971you're just too cooked to handle summoning sickness.
>>97241977honestly this might be true too
Fetches are infinitely more powerful than true duals.Shocks + Fetches is drastically stronger than ABUduals + Shocks.The problem is proxying isn't intrinsically power, it's that the average commander player has the self-control and intelligence of the average toddler.Unfortunately, price is often the only thing insulating the average retard's opening from being t1 Vampiric Tutor, t2 Arcane Signet, t3 The One Ring. This means that banning proxies often gives you a goldilocks window where people are playing decks of reasonable power before they start whaling on cards. So many players are under the illusion that allowing players access to every card irrespective of price is the problem, when in reality it's the fact that most commander players are retards.
>>97241971You just like fiddlely decks that do minor effects
>>97241844Almost everyone you know doesn't read, and even less draw or write. >>97241880These things are a one time or marginal expense. You can get decades worth of drawing supplies for less than a single mortgage payment. >food costs money, therefore cooking is actually an expenseThis might be the most retarded take of 2025. You have to eat and purchase food regardless if you prepare it yourself or not.
>>97241844these things are hobbies. you are retarded, anon. maybe if you actually read some books, you wouldn't be an argumentative prick
>>97241991What do people grab with their fetches anon?
>>97241994I guesswhat other archetypes tend to do that too?
>>97241998>You can get decades worth of drawing supplies for less than a single mortgage payment.No.>cooking is a free hobbylmao
>>97242017Spellslinger can if you do a can trip build
>>97242011Few read books because they aren't necessary to learn.
>>97241971Just run this dude and intruder alarm if you want to get out artifacts. You'll be be taking 40 minutes turns while doing nothing impactful.Your pods will love it and be in awe of your twiddling and durdling
>>97242030Whoops
>>97242023>NoYes. >lmaoExplain how the costs cooking are somehow different than the money you spend daily on food.
>>97242027Almost nothing is necessary to learn. In fact, you could say reading is a pursuit, indeed like a hobby.
>>97242023Cooking isn't free but a lot of people don't discount the food they are making and eating either, which does make it cost less (though hardly free)
>>97241513>on top of that its extremely jewish trickery to convince you to use a system that will transparently put new players on an expensive elevator rideyou mean players will be put on a ride because they lack restraint?but enough about proxies
>>97242011No wonder Americans are so fat and dumb. They gladly revel in mediocrity because they think that if something isn't personally fun they shouldn't do it, even if it means to better themselves. For your own health you should exercise and do some basic cooking and exercise. Sure making pies or some shit every week can be a hobby, but thats not inexpensive. Reading and writing is important for learning, even it its just websites or how-to books. Drawing on that list is the only "hobby", and I put that with music, gaming etc. Sorry if I hurt your feelings!
>>97242016Shock lands
> its another episode of europoor has a melty about americans
>>97242079Why are you talking about Americans?
>>97242090id rather have this than another conversation about trannies
>>97242080They grab true duals if they have them, shocks if not.Either way, if a card only exists in your deck to get something more powerful, it isn't the most powerful card in your deck.
>>97242099Cuz I see them everyday and tired of nonthinking trashy drones voting. >>97242090Im american btw.
>>97242109Maybe you should relax instead instead of having a total meltdown. Buck up, it's xmas
are we comparing duals and shocks as if they are replacements for each other rather than extra copies of the same card and the density of them is non-trivial?
>>97242104>They grab true duals if they have them, shocks if not.not necessarily the case, scrub
>>97242120Did you not read the chain?Someone said fetches are stronger than true duals and shocks.
>>97242127they are
>oh look it's yet another episode of dumb casuals whining about why people don't share their ideas of fun in a fucking PVP game
>>97242124I don't know what you trying to imply with this.Like you think shocks are basics or something.
>>97242127They are. The fact that you fetch the a dual doesn't mean duals are better. That's not the true strength of fetches.
>>97242134you can't tell that what the mono red commander that just dropped a mox diamond t1 is carrying in their 99?go back
>>97242062Is me reading twitter a hobby?
>a +1/+1 counters and token deck? that'll be 200$ for 5 staples
>>97242145It can beIt's a very sad hobby, but you can see it as and engage with it as a hobby.
>>97242136> but muh surveil landsFetches are only better than duals if you have duals to fetch
>>97242145Is moving the goalposts a hobby?
>>97242079We get it. You read some fucking self help book from a grifter.>uh if you exerciseActually, know what would be 50 times better for you?Cut sugar. Entirely. You'll lose more weight than exercise.
>>97242150this is the deckbuilding equivelent of trying to buy a house in san francisco
>>97242150>there's a dragon tax>um ok>there's also an autism tax>AAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEE
>>97242160I suppose it could be. But it isn't relevant here. I am asking if reading means books or any readingBecause EVERYONE "reads"You mean fuckin books from 1870
>>97242150What staples?I'm sure whatever you say there is .25-5 dollar budget options.
>>97242150ABPAlways be proxyin.No, I will NOT buy that copy of Jin Gitaxias. I will proxy him.
>>97242159The fetch still thins my deck and gets me a basic if I need it to. Get fucked SCRUB
>>97242104The true dual doesn't loop itself with Crucible of Worlds.
>>97242193Seems like the more powerful card there is crucible, not the fetch
Are our family lives really so bad we are arguing about lands and proxies on Christmas?
>>97241991indeed, absolute freedom in getting cards via proxies eventually conflicts with the idea of protecting the table from becoming a CEDH pod living in denial
>>97242211you know what helps with a hangover? destroying retards on 4chan
>>97242159That's probably true, but it's not just surveil.
>>97242211personally, yes
>>97242199that has nothing to do with fetches > duals lmao
>>97242239Then why bring up crucible
>>97242173Anon, where do you think you're at? What was this site founded for? Some forms of reading are dignified than others, but you can pursue them as a hobby.
>>97242246because fetches interacting with more cards (crucible, etc) and mechanics (delve, etc) proves that they are stronger than duals
>>97242258>Because you can add another card it makes them strongerYeah, that doesn't make them stronger than default. That just means crucible is strong.
>>97242269>other people/cards contributing to the whole? no, it's just one (1) guy/card doing all the worknever get into a position of authorityif you are in one already, i feel sorry for your underlings
>>97240563quick test for you anon: is Jumbo Cactuar a legendary creature? Can it be your commander?Or would it be in the 99 of a (potentially gruul, etc) deck?
>>97242211I don't like large crowds.
>>97242276>InsultsI accept your concession. This may shock you, but not ever deck runs crucible, they all can benefit from true duals outside of mono colors, so not. A single deck type doesn't make them stronger on the whole.
>>97242184According to the professor thats actually a misconception. It doesnt mathematically thin your deck.
>>97242307>the insult actually got to him kekyes continue to give more credit to your overhyped side chick (duals) instead of the real hardworking employee (fetches) in making you look good at work, you retard lol
>>97242159>Surveil>Deck thinning>Top deck manipulation >Landfall>Contributes to Threshold, Delve, and other yard mechanics >Fixed color better in any deck that's more than 2 colors. >Immune to certain forms of nonbasic hate >Makes the best lands even better.Fetches are better. There's a reason a ton of vintage decks run more fetches than og duals
>>97242320Contine to keep melting down because you lost the argument.
>>97242211Norins running because he saw his Aunt
>yet another episode of retards arguing that duals are better than fetchesreminder that proxytards actually agree that fetches are stronger than duals, that's why they're so adamant in normalizing proxied duals, "they're just lands dude they don't even fuel my grave strats"ofc that doesn't change the fact that a little bit here and a little bit there cascades into proxied LEDs and cradles, but proxyfags aren't known for their long term thinking
>>97242333>the boysOpinion discarded
>>97242328you see anyone here agreeing with you?thought somerry christmas moron haha
>>97242333>I lost the argument, better break the chain and act like I won after not giving any actual argumentation.Unironic leftist troon behavior.
>>97242341>random political shitAnd he did win now. Rightist
>>97242341the fact that you didn't even reply to >>97242323 proves just how much of a troon you are lol
>>97242339>Argumentum ad populumYou've already conceded. You don't need to double down with fallacies.
>me when I use proxies and stomp anons face in
>>97242353>he admits to being all alonehahaha yes anon you're the only smart one here kekw
>>97242364>literal twitch emotes on 4chanNot even that guy but pls kill yourself
>>97242367imagine liking doctor who though
