>I cast Blasphemous Act to wipe everyone's board>Concede at Instant speed in the main phase of the next player>go home
>>97263551>whew! thank god i wasn't the first to lose!
Thirty (30) starting life is objectively superior to fourty (40)
>cast Worldfire with zero follow upONE NOTHIN WRONG WITH ME
>>97263539>Times you acted like the Joker during a game of commander?I was playing voltron, my commander was like 12/12 double strike flying or some shit, ready to one-shot someone. Another player took control of it to swing at another player who needed one more turn to play their infinite combo, I conceded before combat damage step. They ended up losing to the combo the next turn
>>97263571There is, unironically, nothing wrong with this, and I do it on a regular basis.
>ug, not a regular, player is popoping off>hit apex devastator>bounces my cloud>hits nasty terrasty on the last cascade>tell him to destroy my double strike and lands>he blows up a bunch of random equips>tap out and kill him with double strikeWhat causes this phenomenon? I straight up told him what kills me and yet he tried to look for a different line that achieved the same thing.
>>97263584there's nothing wrong with pubstomping
>>97263584absolute mad man
TQ>Me talking the Store Owner out of board wiping us by hitting him with a ton of half-truths before killing the entire table my very next turn
>>97263574you not swinging at the player about to combo off means you were going to lose anyways which also means the player you conceded to was also going to lose so yeah whatever let's shuffle up for the next game
>>97263574i don't play theft simply because the things you steal all happen to have a self-destruct button
>>97263539>Times you acted like the Joker during a game of commander?I swapped control of my opponent's commanders with each other.Both of them hated it.
>>97263539>TQthe time i bumblefucked my way into the atla palani infinite with ashnod's altar and thornbite staff.The ashnod's wasn't my copy, I top decked it off my opponent with etali.
command tower needs to be labelled as a (((gc))).unconditional access to all colours, without a downside is nuts and i am tired of pretending otherwise.i said what i said.
>>97263609Because I just swung at the go-wide tokens dude who had 30 fucking creatures out, then Sir Combo started setting shit up.
>>97263619Silly post
>>97263619There's another timeline this is true because Mark didn't actively try to destroy the format, but it's far from even the top 100 most egregious cards in the format now.
>>97263619No single mana producing land in the game deserves to be banned.
>>97263619unironacally no truer words were ever spoken
>>97263637Ok mr. Tolarian academy
>>97263642Single mana.As in can only produce one. I'm not talking cradle like effects.
If commander is about having fun then that means allowing players (including you btw) to sometimes be able to destroy the table with sol ring and command tower, that is divine fact>for people not caring about winning you sure are sore losers huh?
>>97263643>what do you mean i cant play tolarian academy? I literally only have 1 artifact in my deck!>and it's not even sol ring!
>>97263539several times, with kefka as my commander! >Tempt with mayhem targeting tempt with reflections targeting wandering archaic>cast press the enemy (bricks game)>cast chaos warp>radiate it>narsets reversal farewell so he can do it again later>bonus roundx2 +creative technique x3>denying wind x3>remove all opponents win conditions from their libraries>descent into avernus>copy the trigger 5 times with gogo
>building a new deck >have almost none of the cards on hand and have to buy them>only 20 cards into my list>already ordering 1-3 from 7 different sellers and lgs's>shipping is already almost $40>by the time I'm done it'd probably be close to $100 just for shipping and I'd be having to track 20-40 different packages arriving piecemeal over weeks Nah fuck that. It's 2026 I'm not playing that game anymore. I'll buy the couple I genuinely care about looking nice and proxy/bootleg the rest. Get everything I want for well under $100 bucks all expenses included and in 1-3 nice little packages within 2-3 weeks tops.
>>97263539>>TQ>Times you acted like the Joker during a game of commander?This doesn't -exactly- county because this story happened around 2007 when I was just playing a free-for-all with friends, but not commander just anything goes constructed.I played a Thieves' Auction and forced everyone to draft all the fucking permanents on the table in a 5 player battle cruiser game. Then my friend's dad who was playing Azorius asked if I was done cause he was annoyed about the Thieves' Auction and he was going to kill me on his next turn. So I laughed and then I played my 2nd Thieves' Auction (because people didn't tap their lands out before drafting and I did cause I wanted to just float the mana).
>>97263662take the proxy pill
>>97263663>countyShay Cormac...I...
>>97263619>labeling all precons into decks with game changersI'm not sure about that.
anyone tried building a monowhite airbending deck? I've been wanting to have a silly gimmick deck for each monocolor and I've been struggling to figure out a good one for monowhite.Right now I have>ghoulcaller gisa(black) - zombie shenanigans>Yedora, grave gardener(green) - morph shenanigans>Ashling the Pilgrim(red) - pipe bombs>I don't play blue if I can help it.
>>97263596>not running 60 lands and a shitton of mana rocks*laughs in holy war*
>>97263686Just do some drannith magistrate, eldrazi displacer and sword of hearth and home shenanigans. Im sure flickering appa is good.
> MFW he runs removal that is blocked by indestructible
>>97263662What country are you getting that hosed in for shipping?>>97263686I’m in the same boat. Blue did octopus/kraken/leviathan beat down.
>>97263619wont someone please think of the precons
>>97263686Avacyn world slayer spam.
would you play tymna without a partner?
>>97263753I'd put that hoe in the 99
>>97263753i got 99 cards and a bitch aint one
this is a gamechanger.
>>97263774xhe cute
>>97263753No, id slap something like this in if I wanted to keep it orzhov.
>>97263720I'm a leaf. I'd be willing to pay the shekel tax and buy from the states but like I said even on "card marketplaces" like TCG every seller has 1-3 cards at most that I'd need so I'd pay .50-$2.00 for a card and $2.99+ for shipping. And these aren't rare or old cards, I'm building bant Yuna with the summons so this shit should be effortless to find from 1-3 sellers max. Oh well not my problem the secondary market can't figure its shit out and thinks everyone is a retard who will pay more for less convenience when cheaper and faster alternatives exist.
>>97263774WHAT FUCKING GENDER IS THIS?!
>>97263779>>97263792
>>97263774Goes nuts in Toymaker
>>97263792Its an asian woman with no breasts. Fret not, a flat chest is like a desert. Theres nothing there but its still fucking hot.

Card sellerI am going to the LGS, and I need only your most fun Naya commander.
>>97263876nice
325 days until Star Trek
>>97263884More like Shit Trek
>>97263887skid trak
Anyone else ever given up on a commander? After last play session I retooled her into a Shanid deck. She's still part of the 99 because I can't dream of getting rid of her but a 6 drop commander in 2026 isn't cutting it anymore
>>97263877You don't know what you ask, traveler. My strongest commanders will kill The Ur-Dragon let alone a man. You need a seller that sells weaker commanders, because my commanders are too strong.
>>97263916>>97263916ive been trying really hard to make a naya deck work around the Salvatore group of cattie bri, wulfgar, drizzt and bruenor. Been using minsc as commander for flavor, but otherwise there's no making these characters work together. they all want to do different things, the best i can do is equipment with combat triggers.
>>97263927Embrace the B2
>>97263941The vitamin?
>>97263941its barely even b1, and its got some expensive cards in there, and I like to think i'm an okay deck builder.just cant crack it.
>>97263916only every week
>>97263916Abomination Of Lanowar. It looks cool and I really like the flavor text of this and the tone it sets but I just didn't like playing it. Elves are such a solid tribe that I would never need to cast Abomination Of Lanowar. The tribe just doesn't need Abomination Of Lanowar to do anything and I didn't like that. If I'm playing a commander I want it to matter to the deck's gameplan. It was at most a backup plan after a board wipe but often it felt like elves could just elf ball so fast that getting Abomination Of Lanowar out would feel like the third best thing to be doing. A friend of mine built Lathril a while ago and I gave or traded him most of my Abomination Of Lanowar to help him start it.
What's the best way to make this work?Jinnie Fay cat spam deck, btw
>>97263969he cute :)
Broken
I swear the worst fucking thing about this format is the wildcard people that just disrupt or attack you for literally no reason and never win a single game, feels like group hug is the only acceptable play style whenever they're around because they never see through it and ignore you the whole game.
>>97264060correct group hug is overpowered because of retards
>>97264019and will never be reprinted
>>97264060kingmakers only live to make people seethe. best not to give them any attention when they start larping the agent of chaos
>>97264080Unfortunately these people in particular are not even kingmaking, they're just really bad at threat assessment which makes them really unpredictable, always feels like you have to play "do nothing" decks to survive until they're gone and then the actual game starts.
Cleaning up my bulk.Help me decide which one to keep as a commander, /tg/.How similarly do they play?
>>97264095in my experience these are not mutually exclusive
>>97263619In response to Farewell, I pay green with my Kamahl, Fist of Krosa and turn your Command Tower into a Creature.
Anyone played her? Sell me on it. I'm interested.
>>97264133I've built a lot of theoretical lists but never played it, everything was either a weird convoluted combo or actually just a ravenous ride deck
>>97263619this just shows how bad wotc is at making decksthat or they are actively filling up slots in precons in order to reprint less cards that need it
>>97264108Glarb looks cooler. That would be enough for me.
>>97264133Stealth combo deck
local lgs will have 1v1 precon tournaments + 50 usd upgrades. What is the most stupid broken 1v1 precon I can upgrade with fiddy bucks.
How do you know if a subtheme is worth including or not? I want to include this guy as one of my creatures, but noticed I only have 4 human cards
>>97264274personally I'd pick squirreled away or the ixalan merfolk deck
>>97264288got the merfolk deck, so just put some based counterspells like thwart and more tribal support?
winners win
>>97264284Ain't nobody ever activating Kong's last ability.
>>97264311anon that shit is part of an infinite loop cumbo in my elfbol deck wtf are you talking about.
