I like 1v1 edh, but not necessarily competitive edh. Like 1v1 but with bracket 1-3 decks.
>>97317290>TQThis is a fun endgame combo I pulled off one time.
>TQI pulled it off once and it was beautiful
>>97317366>not paperDidnt read.
>>97317373I did not in fact fully read it.
>>97317290>tqNot an infinite combo, but it's one hell of a soft lock if you get it down
>>97317290>TQIt’s just fun.
>>97317402Not paper and also bait
>>97317394I love all the cool shit Azula can do. Good shit anon
>>97317411Don't care and didn't ask.
>>97317290>TQI play mtgo so get fuckedMonk combos.

>>97317435>not paperDoesnt count so I didn't read your post. You're allowed to post hand-drawns if you need to.
>>97317441>>97317452>Not paperDidn't read
>TQI expanded "combo" to mean board state you are always trying to get to as some of these don't go infinite, but will probably win you the game anyway and the commander for each deck they are in.
>>97317290>TQ: show me your favorite combos. Post paper magic or it doesn't count. (If you need to print or hand-draw some proxies real quick, that's allowed).echo mage + early harvest + blue sun -> draw deck, future site, draw everyone out.
>>97317484>echo mage + early harvestwoops meant dramatic reversal or others
>>97317483There are far better ways to abuse Gonti's Aether Heart.
>>97317484>future sitefuture sightholy shit man I gotta start taking my brain meds
>>97317496Probably, but working so far
>>97317493Could have avoided that mistake if you posted the paper.
>>97317366Very red combo given the colossal overkill here.>>97317402Definitely a more interesting application of Smothering Tithe, so I'll give it the novelty at the very least.>>97317435Does Spawning Pit even need to be the sac outlet here? Seems like any manaless sac outlet does this.>>97317484We did it boys. We broke Isochron Scepter!
>>97317483Giga based
Thirty (30) starting life is objectively superior to fourty (40)
>>97317509>We did it boys. We broke Isochron Scepter!yeah, i mean the infinite mana can be any number of thingsits the BSZ to the face that's fun
>>97317509>Seems like any manaless sac outlet does this.This is true, but spawning pit is cheap as dirt compared to Ashnods/phyrexian altar. Also if you're using those, you can just get infinite mana with gift of immortality.The nice thing about Boonweaver / Pattern of Rebirth though is they both tutor the other. Obviously BW finds PoR. But you can also attach PoR to a mana dork, sac it, grab BW, who searches gy for PoR.
So you want me to go home, get some cards out and take a pic? Fuck off
>>97317506>have Gonti's Aether Heart and Goblin Welder on board, along with Saheeli and Pia, with 3 {E}>spend 3 {E} to copy Aether Heart, now at 0 {E}>both Aether Hearts trigger>real Aether Heart gets binned as a state-based action>triggers resolve, getting you 4 {E}>attack with fake Aether Heart>it connects, Pia triggers, you get 2 {E}>now have 6 {E}>not enough {E} to activate and exile the duped Aether HeartSure, you can have another source of energy somewhere in there, but it doesn't get you all the way there by itself and only gets you that far if you assume no blocks. In that no-blocks scenario, you need access to three more energy per turn for this to get you to net neutral--two more to exile the copy and take an extra turn, then one more to get you back to your initial conditions after you bring the original back with Welder.Please tell me you don't think that you can get the original back with Welder BEFORE exiling the copy, netting 4 {E} from the two triggers, and THEN activate the copy's ability before the legend rule kicks in. The legend rule is a state-based action, which means you don't get priority before it bins one of the two Hearts.
>>97317300>*crickets*
>>97317483milk does a body goodi might steal this combo
>>97317607No, you bring the real one back during your extra turn and repeat and yes there are several other energy gatherings in there, those are just what I would call the core.
How are we breaking her bros?
>>97317649My dude, Aether Heart, Panharmonicon, and Whirler Virtuoso is cleaner, more consistent, and has more redundancies.
So you're telling me I can just evoke Ashling's Command?
>>97317662Those are also in the deck, I just want saheeli and the goblin to feel like they are contributing.
>>97317644>i might steal this comboThere are like 5 there.
>>97317435>Monk related comboI'm stealing it anon
>>97317677Saheeli is very rarely going to be contributing meaningfully to an energy deck. Admittedly, she'll do so more frequently than Pia, but that's not hard.
>>97317701>Have some aetherjets or thopters already, neither of which are hard to do, swing at 3 opps>get 6 energy.That's not nothing. In the grand scheme it isn't much, but its more than the 3-4 you might get from saheeli if you happen to have enough cheap artifacts and artificer to dump your hand.
>learn the game from my partner with over 20 years of experience>taught to run lots of interaction, favour versatile cards, lands that help a bad board state limp along, and to weigh cards up by how helpful they'd be to draw on average rather than working for some hypothetical combo>it's good enough that after my first commander game at bracket 2, I was told to move up to bracket 3>later start watching videos for MTG advice>people like trinket mage complaining endlessly about everyone playing solitaire until they win because they think it's rude/boring to disrupt combos, and other advice to kick habits I never learned in the first placeDid I accidentally skip this game's learning curve
>>97317749>learn the game from my partnertits or gtfo
>>97317749yes you had someone teach you and to not develop bad habitssome people don't understand deck building at all and don't include anything outside of their combo poecesthey don't interact with anyone, so they don't expect anyone to interact with them
>>97317764Toski, what gifts do you bring?
>>97317764GET FUCKING BLIGHTED YOU INDESTRUCTIBLE SQUIRREL BITCH
>>97317509>Definitely a more interesting application of Smothering TitheAnon that doesnt work. Divine Visitation specifically calls out creature tokens.Tithe does not make creature tokens.
>>97317749You cheated not only the game, but yourself. You didn't grow. You didn't improve. You took a shortcut and gained nothing. You experienced a hollow victory. Nothing was risked and nothing was gained. It's sad that you don't know the difference.
>>97317599Then dont. I dont care.
If the commander doesn’t have an attack triggger, I don’t want it.
>>97317807If that works for you. Go get it
>>97317657hapatra and yawgmoth to draw 78 cards if you have 40 life
>>97317807@grok give her a mastectomy
>>97317749Sort of? Some people come in expecting to do their combo and nothing else. You effectively skipped that portion of awkwardly learning you need to balance your deck right. Same result like if you had come into this game from a different card game like Yu-Gi-Oh or whatever.
>>97317657Not so fast, haughty elf.
>>97317762Anon, some people are gay. Especially magic players.
>>97317657>How do we break a literal training wheels commander that has the instructions written down on it.Fuck off retard.
>>97317835Sexo
>>97317807You can get freakier than that. What about a commander that doesn't even do anything until it connects?
Man they really missed not having the Lorwyn five in this set...
>>97317801but enough about proxies
Teysa looks like a high class hooker
>>97317835So is this new -1/-1 counter focus from this set going to be enough to make everyone consider running her?
>>97317749>Did I accidentally skip this game's learning curveyou skipped being a filthy casual, yes
>>97317864>why are we here>what are the five of us?>some sort of lore win?
What the FUCKING FUCK did they do to my bro? I will not stand for this. I declare war on Seattle.
>>97317873that's because she is
>>97317483>aislop gooner proxies>clearly a shit player based on the comboscan't say im surprised
Bros...
>>97317300The GOAT
>>97317357with a sac outlet, right ? because myriad exiles the tokens
>>97317888>What the FUCKING FUCK did they do to my bro?Lorwyn block was a self-contained story with a happy ending and no sequel hook in itwotc had to manufacture new drama to justify going back
>>97317897>>97317888his hope and optimism, gone
>>97317888I don't get the issue, this just seem like a over all buff unless you just want to durdle with fat asses and never attack
>>97317888
>>97317888I miss running tree guy. With him and Reaperking it looks like these guys went through a rough bad ending and were left fucked for it. What they do to deserve getting fucked with?
>>97317912Anon, please. Those are all legendary. The myriad tokens would all die to legend rule right after entering.
>>97317864here is your lorwyn five, bro
>>97317955>What they do to deserve getting fucked with?you guys wanted return to lorwyn, and so the monkey's paw curled
>>97317888The only thing he has missing is fucking over your opponents P/T's but this is genuinely much better than his last iteration. Curving into this is going to be much smoother as well.Let's not forget he is a literal FIVE/TEN when swinging/blocking and gets around Meekstone/Marble Giant/Ensnaring Bridge effects.
>>97317981>Meekstone/Marble Giant/Ensnaring Bridge effects.No one plays these
>>97318004*outside of Doran decks
>>97317857Fuck I love those oldschool Battlecruiser dragon commanders. Teneb for a while was the only Abzan general available until Doran.
>>97317847Chill out fatty I'm just asking how we're going to build our -1/-1 jund decks let's have a group effort for once
>>97317888this is a much cooler design than hitting ashling with the manface desexinator
>>97318054you can really tell how ashling became less curvy, more androgynous, and her skirt growing larger as the years went byironically the changelings are now cuter and less weird looking
>>97317888destroying things is the only story wotc knows how to tell when the return to a planemirrodin, innistrad, zendikar, now lorwyn
>>97317888>I attack with my 19993/10000 Jumbo Cactuar
>>97318076I remember when people made fun of wayne reynolds art for being too angular, full of belts and reusing the same dynamic posesbut modern fantasy art is so bad his stuff is "the good old days"
>>97318083Ravnica was fine and we returned there 3 times
>>97318093inkshield
>>97318045It takes like 30 minutes to learn basic Scryfall syntax you inept shithead
>>97318102Main phase 2 I play Massacre Wurm
>>97318098I don't know how people can hate on OG Ashling
>>97318112aieeeee
>>97317747Generating energy is pretty much never an issue that an energy deck runs into unless you've built it very, very wrong.
This is gonna shoot up in price once people get sick of their commanders permanently turning into 1/1s that no one blocks.
>>97317888>>97317897Trees get bigger as they get older, not small and withered. Especially magic trees. The new Doran should have been a 0/40 with Defender. This is a result of anti White bigotry.
>that new MaralenComing back to Lorwyn was a mistake
>>97318112I always have it tho
Guy's gonna be $10 for the first month then $5 until 2027, right?
Oona? Wydwen? The Clique?
>>97318199all dead
>>97318188it's a mainset rare in a meta where red dominates so no lol
>>97318167I don't think the 7 mana giant is going to be as format warping as you might think.But maybe I'm wrong and it will end up as a game changer.
>>97318221Bro the set has like a dozen of them at this point.
>>97318199>WydwenMy waifu
>>97318221>>97318226i'm just waiting for an actual giant tribal commanderkalemne doesn't count
>>97317290I actively avoid infinite combos because I find them anticlimactic, but I've really enjoyed playing Greatbow Doyen with my Legolas at 10/10 or something then seeing people shit their pants in realization as I drop Whip Silk on creature after creature for game.
It's probably overcosted, I admit.
>>97318199Original Lorwyn was several decades ago in-universe. Faeries don't typically live for even a full year, so Wydwen and the Clique wouldn't have made it, even if the Clique hadn't all died before the end of the Shadowmoor story. And the original block was all about overthrowing Oona, so she's gone by design.
>>97318188It's gonna be like $1 anon
>>97318188Are you joking? That's a bulk rare.
>>97318280>>97318281Funnily enough, I remember hearing exactly the same things about Underworld Breach and Cori-Steel Cutter.
>>97318273Before your spell resolves, I destroy my commander with despotic sceptre because I'm not a scrub player and put this card into all of my decks specifically to deal with these kinds of effects.>there are people who don't run redundant commander-sacrifice effects in their deck to get around non-removal removalGet serious.
>>97318188>>97318299Bro for 4 mana you can just have your creatures draw cards equal to the damage they dealt instead.Please fine a better shitpost.
>>97318308>he not only always has it, he always has it on the battlefieldTo say nothing of actually running this dogshit just to get around fake removal lol
>>97317290My favorite combo has always been Reveillark + Karmic Guide. I love the value ETB and LTB triggers give you with creatures, and these two can just give you so much more value. With a free sac outlet you can get infinite mana, exile any creature you want, fog forever, bring back any creature from your graveyard or card, blow up any land, artifact and enchantment you want or just make Vish Kal big and swing for lethal and get infinite life.
>>97318308>there are people who don't run redundant commander-sacrifice effects in their deck to get around non-removal removalmy boardwipes are good enough for that
>>97318319My commander's in the command zone. Your commander's a 0/1 unblockable ooze.I think I'll stick to winning, thanks.
>>97318323Someone post that Saffi's combo chart.
>>97318332>he has to wipe his whole board to get his commander back in the command zoneLOL>e-erm... i dont... play... creature-based... decks... so... ummm... i just... play... 12 board wipes... every other turn...right right, you're so uniqueMost non-NPC players don't run decks like that, though.
>>97318076Always thought mono black Ashling looked cool. Had hoped we'd get another one day in a similar style but with a less annoying effect. Looks like that's not happening.
>>97318273Huh? What's that? Removal? Cute. I only play commanders that have their effect from the command zone lol. Watch me do my inalla combo again.
>>97318167I don't know if people are going to want to turn off every enter the battle trigger for it.
>>97314261Do people actually trade you real cards for fake ones? Is that a thing which happens?
how much spot removal do you use in your decks?I have a mono white list and I hate drawing swords to plowshares or path to exile, I always think to myself "dang I wish this was a board wipe"so I am considering removing them entirely
It's safe to say that nu-strixhaven will have its own wburgslop
>>97318384richard is that you?
>>97318369but i never claimed to be unique though
>>97318384I run 6-8 spot removal and 1 board wipe in most decks.If you fill your list with board wipes your win rate will go up but games will be an obnoxious slog to get through.It's very easy to optimize the fun out of commander.Also, consider running fogs if the reason you want to board wipe every other turn is combat damage. White has a couple.
>>97318384>I hate drawing swords to plowshares or path to exile, I always think to myself "dang I wish this was a board wipe"This is because you can't (or don't) differentiate between creatures that matter and creatures that don't, so the board state as a whole looks like an escalation. Try attacking with your own creatures more so they have to block or take damage, this will reduce the number of creatures on the board while also telling you which creatures your opponents prize, which will help you target better.As per your question, I run at least one piece of spot removal in every deck, often more like 3-5.
One more pauper deck, why not?
>>97318397This.>but winning is funIf that's your attitude you should be playing 60 card formats T B H
>>97318384Usually somewhere nearing ten pieces of targeted removal. Used to run more board wipes but have grown to not like them much and stick to one or two per deck. Board wiping constantly didn't really help things as much unless I was playing a deck with ways around it.
>>97318397>It's very easy to optimize the fun out of commander.it's a lot easier to optimize than to coordinate with your 3 friends, much less randoms, to make what is essentially a commander cube of sortswhat, you think those decks from commander clash videos were made out of the blue without any coordination from the players offscreen?
>>97318410>winning isn't funthen you shouldn't be playing PVP games buddy boy
>>97318352Don't have it, but back in the day when Prime Time was legal I had a brutal Saffi deck that used Sterling Grove and Privileged position to basically have PT and the Rev+KG combo to spit out the entire deck on the playfield, and have it all be industructable, hexproof, destoy everyone else's boards, fog and counter anything and attack for infinite damage all on the same turn.
>>97318308this is silly. Just run pic or a couple sac lands
>>97318397>each opponent has 20 creatures on the board>use a fog>instantly die to the next opponentvs>each opponent has 20 creatures on the board>use a board wipe>some opponents lose the game on the spot, because most decks are not resilient enough to re-build after a sweepera fog is merely a half measure, it will never fix the problem like a board wipe does
>>97318384unironically 0 spot removals and 8 board wipes, if you can combo a board wipe with a protection spell like heroic intervention you most often than not will win the game
>>97318403>This is because you can't (or don't) differentiate between creatures that matter and creatures that don'tThis mentality doesn't work in 2026, where every commander is a must answer threat that quickly snowballs and takes over the match
>>97318397rofl found the fucking secondary. Did you start playing during Final Fantasy or some shit you ADHD zoomer?
>>97318482All the more reason to run more spot removal over board wipes
Fuck why is he so fucking hot
>>97318520Stop objectifying men and contributing to the matriarchy!
>>97318188People think this is good?
>>97318530No. I am a man so I can objectify men. It's like having an N Word pass
>>97318531No some random faggot felt like shitposting. Welcome to /edhg/
>>97318533Oh sweet. I see. I still have my N Word Pass, signed by Barack Obama.
>>97318533men objectify men through means of power and wealth, evidenced by how /edhg/ is full of sweats vs casuals and paypigs vs proxyfagsonly faggots like you think in terms of sex
>>97316685I still have 3 copies of him. should I wait till he gets unbanned and then sell them?
>>97317969I'm already sick of these character designs and I know we're going to be seeing them for the rest of the year at least
>>97318558And?
>>97317969From the thumbnail I thought the bottom right thing was Schoolastic
Can Brisela be my commander?
>>97318587just saying the quiet part out loud faggot
>>97318599No.
>>97318599just run gisela voltron and treat bruna as an equipment of sorts
Is Ashlen Rose from Command Zone a lesbian?
>>97318469this. not to mention there are so many one sided wipes these days you are better off just running those
>>97318563Or you should play them. I've got a foil one I'm waiting to moon.
>>97318621if you do that then all her enchantments and eqipment fall off when she transforms. :/I should be allowed to take the peices of a meld creature as partner commanders.
>>97318632Are you ever going to be in a position for it to matter?
>>97318273Cyclonic rift, overloaded
>>97318661don't put auras, just use equipment and use puresteel paladin effects to requipalternatively you can use bruna as commander, but that's a slower and more human tribal approach
I cast Putrefy
Game changers, but for commanders, automatic bracket 4 with non-competitive thematic exceptionsBitch lords meet one or more of the following:>card advantage from a triggered ability that can occur several times>provides both means to produce more mana, and ways to consume it and win>having 3 or more colors with 2 or more commanders>are 1 part of a 2 card infinite, or a highly available 3 card infinite in your deck
I've been rocking this guy for almost a decade now and it's sad there's nothing in the new set for him
>>97318766how can there be anything new for him, he's dead
>>97318482>every creature is your opps commanderPrecisely my point
>>97318782I mean Golgari elves not necessarily Nath himself
>>97318508>your 3 opponents are now using must kill commandersnow what
>>97318167Yeah it's gonna be as format warping as Ixidron, 4 sure m8It's not like Timmy can't just turn to Jimmy and go "hey can I crash my commander into yours?" either.
>Grab someone's cradle from across the table after 3 games in a row of people playing with clearly proxied bullshit>Don't even remember what I said fully, something like "hope you're a preferred customer of chang" before taking it out of the sleeve and rotating my body away from the fatso trying to get up from his chair>Ripped it in half>It was blue core>Just ran away leaving all of my decks and ran down the streetI fucked up bros.
>>97318520I find this kind of art irritating, because it's clearly more faggy fan service. But we can't have cleavage or suggestively hot women in any way anymore. then there's star trek and other stupid 3rd party sets coming up ontop of all of the art becoming more 'world of warcraft' like. rotating formats brick every month, and competitive autists ruin commander since my friends have all movedfuck it, I quit
>>97318352Gotchu bbg
>>97318822
>>97318822This didn't happen, but I wish it did.
>>97318822I strongly suspect that this scenario never occurred.
>>97318803Let them fought over each other
>>97318782>>97318766Based oldschool general player. Anytime I see someone sit down with a deck that they've obviously been playing and working on for a long time, I give major props.I still remember the first time I played EDH before a pre-release in 2010 and some unc pulls out his Karn, Silver Golem EDH deck and then proceeds to do infinites. He said he built the deck 5 years ago.
>>97318638he doesnt fit in any of my decks. my only green decks plays legendaries only
>>97318824Thanks bro
>>97318766Narrow-minded retard
>TQI've since turned this into boros with feather at the helm so I can make em indestructible, and dman is this still my favorite interaction of all time. Its slow, its obvious, its massive.

>>97318824Once they unban my boy Prime Time I'm rebuilding my Saffi deck, big and better with those new editions. Back in the day it was the stongest non-blue deck I knew of. Thanks, anon.
Where does he go
>>97318167Thats not allowed because you have to let me do the thing
>>97318887Elemental tribal, duh.
>>97318878Furnace of Wrath's art is so fucking kino. I want to go back.
>>97318750More like Pootify lmao
>>97318887In elemental tribal. Are you medically retarded?
>>97318887Kino
Bring back the tuck rule.
Anyone got a picture of that Lorwyn gorgon? Scryfall are lazy troons and still haven't uploaded cards previewed like 12 hours ago
>>97318750Based. This printing hits me with that golden glow from the art of a lot of original Ravnica. Putrefy has a lot more competition now but you can't beat those feels
>>97317762Alas this is a blue board>>97317767Is that just a bracket 2 problem, or do people act like this in bracket 3 as well?My second event is tomorrow so I'm wondering what to expect from bracket 3
>>97318823>waaaah what about meIt's funny you guys claim other groups do not need pandering but then cry when you are not pandered to.
Will Morcant come out with another art version? The shading on the face looks weird kinda like a mask or a 5 oclock an I can't unsee lol

>>97319063what to expect from bracket 3 full of randos?>strong synergy and high card quality, no pet cards or memes>wincons that are efficent enough to be played in one turn, not telegraphed>powerful proactive and reactive plays, expect combos, boardwipes, and only the best spot removal>avg of turn 6 to kill the whole pod
>>97319124The UB of it all aside this card is supremely gay and boring. Demands absolutely nothing of the player. Play a real magic card next time.

>>97317290Mono white aristocrat combo, folds to any piece of interaction.

>>97319191>Mana cryptlol
>>97319310I've actually had a guy at my LGS act like this, anytime you'd try to read what your card did, even if it didn't effect him, he'd put his hand in your face then grab it off the table. If he didn't understand it he'd get up then take it to someone else and ask them what it means. No one liked playing with him for some reason
This card is so cool
>>97319310Tell him to get his phone out and look, or accept me reading it. Public information doesn't mean you can touch my property,
>>97319310I start crying
>>97319310/edhg/ is so poor they dont have phones with mobile data
>>97319310They didn't learn this lesson from Kaldheim, they didn't learn it from Strixhaven, I hope they learn it now.Complex back-and-forth DFCs are ass. It seems they only used them for a cycle of legendaries, but even that may be too much.

>>97319432You can't win in that scenario. Exactly what you said happened happens every time. You pretty much have to make a conscious effort to just not look at their hand.
>>97319466
>>97319466>Dawnsire and the biggest calibre you haveI barely have any cards from that set. Biggest caliber I have is a 12g. Try again.

>>97319432man, I have to actively look at the opposite table sometimes because I don't sit hunched over the table like the rest of the pod so simply turning my head means I can their hand
>>97319512>>97319466try this nigga
>>97318384Depends on the deck but 3-5 board wipes and 5-10 spot removal.
>>97319341You don't have mandatory phone baskets at your lgs?
>>97319432A lot of people at my LGS are big flashers. Especially one guy who practically plays with his hand exposed. I guess its the poker/domino player in me but I never have any issue keeping my hands concealed even from the guy on my side of the table
>>97319310>not having a second copy you sleeve transformed
>>97319432Screenpeaking is just casual fun why is the casual format so cagey about everything. If I catch someone seeing my hand I'm just smiling because bro has a spoiler the rest of the pod doesn't know yet.

It's crazy how they'll keep making half naked male art but refuse to make half naked female art.
>>97319906The art director is a fujo that feels uncomfortable about titties and hips.They probably couch it to the suits as 'brand appeal for the young black girl market' but really it's just a gross sexist position where sexualized women are ucky to the art director because she's uncomfortable with her own sexuality
>>97319906do you think youre gonna whine your way into enjoying something?
>>97319913>The art director is a fujo that feels uncomfortable about titties and hips.Proof?
>>97319310I poop my pants on the spot.
>>97319917https://www.meetjackiejones.com/Sorry meant VP creative
>>97319839Why is it so bad?
>>97319893Solitary Confinement and Perennation is not a combo
>>97320020it's a hasty 7 power commander that you deploy after you make your opponents sac their creatures that's le bad in timmy pods
>>97319681I'm forcing discard either way. It has a partial discard package to assist.Wheelin with Megrim and Liliana's caress, baby.
>>97319310Defense of property is covered by the same law as self defense.

>>97319419I use ice super powers to freeze the area to 1 kelvin, rendering your gun inoperable.What now?
>>97318676Why are you rescuing your opponent's commander?
>>97319593serious question: how do phone baskets work? how does the shop ensure nothing gets misplaced or stolen? most people will understandably want to keep tabs on their property, even if they leave it in their pocket the entire time
>>97319593I'd never go to such a place.
>>97319837I play big lizards so I can pretend to be Vath. It's easy to do in multiple games.

>>97320130Somewhat SOVL
>>97320107It didn't happen btw.But IDK I could see someone trying to enforce a no phone policy if it gets bad. But also everyone uses the phone app to track life so no one would ever ban phones.
>>97319593why?
For $14? Pfft. Hell yeah I boughted one.

>>97320210Formats have different banlists?

>>97320210Sets are decided years in advance.
>>97320220Yeah no red just got another busted 2-drop coming in there's no way Dockside is getting out of the jail.
>>97317290ok niggerstell me if there is an esper or azorius (ideally esper) commander that is something like a cool ass biblically accurate angel or maybe like a shing megami tensei or final fantasy boss that is all angelic and cold and stylish and sharp and shit
>>97320255"I get to Shock you once when you remove me" isn't even close to backbreaking in this format.
>>97320255Do you think she makes hexing squelch noises when you penetrate her?
>>97320258>EsperClosest is probably Sharuum>AzoriusClosest is probably Shorikai.Kotori could hear the other Veilshapers shouting, but their voices were coming from a long way away. She hadn't commanded Shorikai to fire. She hadn't. She tried to lower the arm, but the mech wasn't responding. Everything seemed suddenly distilled, sharp as glass and in slow motion. The wounded kami, writhing over the dead Jukai. The eyes of the Veilshapers, boring into her. Katsumasa's lies. Katsumasa's silence. And Shorikai—something about Shorikai that she'd suspected for weeks, but to admit the possibility to herself had been far too horrifying.There was a kami inside the mech.---When Shorikai took control, he revealed his true form to her, just for a second. She saw a seeping, dark aura. She saw a waterfall of tangled black hair; a body built of many wordless and uneasy things; a multitude of hollowed, eyeless faces.Shorikai's form was pinioned by metal spikes. Glowing threads bound kami to machine in a thousand different ways, more complicated than an intricate embroidery. These were knots only Katsumasa could unpick.The sight filled her with horror and sadness, but also with understanding.
>>97320163and when two hours later you go to fetch your new iphone, but the only device left in the basket is a broken galaxy C4?
>>97319593>You don't have mandatory phone baskets at your lgs?ofc my lgs doesn't, because we're not idiots
>>97320198wait a minute this is a $10+ card? i got one for free at the lgs in a christmas bundle and had no idea
>>97320255you don't play real bracket 3, much less cedh
>>97320291Sphinxes look RETARDED.Shorikai it is. The spoiler sealed the deal.How do I Shorikai and why?
>>97320376What am I missing here? Seems shit.
I don't understand how you blunder so hard as to have a Lorwyn showcase frame and NOT print the new Maralen in it.
Set looking like utter shit. Also looks nothing like Lorwyn. I am vindicated. Fuck you niggers only zoomers and lobotomized fags will disagree.
want to build this guy but have a lot of the cards from the precon bcus of a now retired scorpion god deck i built in like 2018. all the new precon exclusive cards look cool but they don't even have the sample pack anymore. really feels like i'd mostly be getting cards i already own.
>>97320391It is very unquenchy. That's rough buddy
>>97320391Better return than Kamigawa got, at least.
>>97320388Countering abilities seems ok. You wait until resident landfall whale #385 puts 50 triggers on the stack, counter and shit out 50 faeries for a kill.
>>97320391a lotttt of the createseally throw the vibe off. it's just generic fantasy humanoid placed in the centre of the card. all the other sets this year look like utter dogshit so i doubt it's going to get better than ths
>>973204084 mana to counter an ability and get a 1/1 does not seem mythic level. Which is what it will be 90% of the time.
>>97320407Not really. Only the man-faced Kotori was cringe in Kamigawa. They made Lorwyn into bland fairy tale slop.
>>97320429That's two 1/1s versus the cascade player though.
>>97320438They took a world that was about the tension between the mortal and spirit worlds and basically cut the spirit world from relevance and made it generic cyberpunk trash. Lorwyn was always Celtic fairy tales.
>>97320265Have you lost your mind? >this spell can't be countered>spells you control can't be counteredThose are the lines that matter. It can be grabbed by Imperial Recruitor and friends too.
>>97320331>bracketsrofl
>>97320493ok rule zero baby
>>97320486>guys blue is being hosed!
>>97320496Ok guy afraid to play against 10 game changers with a precon
People who don't run spider punk:>yooo this shusher is gonn make wavesss
>>97320429It is about countering the whole stack. This is very important for things like Breach lines or Storm stuff.
>>97320486>oh no, anyway, in response to it successfully hitting the board I'll pay 2 and hit it with [any fuck-ass 2 damage ping you probably run 30 of]
>>97320407>>97320477Id agree and disagree, yes they butchered Kamigawa but it was right there in the name. This feels more like a sucker punch
>>97320477Enslaving kami within mechas seems pretty indicative of such tension, anon.
>>97320510yeah that's right back away like a little bitch over not wanting to ante away your worthless proxies hahaha
In grixis or izzet shell, the goblin will be pay 1R I'm storming for a win and there's nothing you can do about it.
>>97320486Anon...this isn't exactly new to the game.
>>97320536>Pay G/R
>>97320541We can do this all day.
is it ok to say this is garbage poop?
>>97320535and thank god for that because cedh right now is a midrange slog
>>97320486I will just reprieve you shit then. There are many ways to counter without countering. You are just a NOOB.
>>97320514Yeah, go ahead and run 30 pings in cEDH and see where that gets you. People already run Vexing Shusher numbnuts.The real scary thing is Bowmasters, but that's just a given.
>>97320550>only monogreen The goblin can be splashed into wburgslop too.
>>97320560This one also blocks damage prevention.
>>97320556>cast the goblin againNow what
>>97320556Lmao, if you have to rely on Reprieve, you're in mid colors. What are you gonna do next, fucking Heliod Ballista like it's pre-COVID?
>>97320562This is shit since you're also protecting other people stacks
>>97320567just win anon
>>97320563>finally i'll be in cedh now!
>>97320562This one has Defense Grid problems.
>>97320486And then it immediately gets removed, achieving nothing more than a Shock to the guy who wanted to keep his countering options open. Hell, he can even wait until he has a counterspell on the stack and then remove the Squelcher at that point.Is the card going to tear Standard a new asshole? Quite probably. Is it going to make any kind of serious impact in EDH? Not even remotely.
Any good player will only be casting the goblin for their win attempt.
>>97320603Any good player would know that the goblin is specifically designed for cedh and will not harm the casuals
>>97320536It's a strict upgrade
Commanders for this feel?
>>97320558My dinodeck and I will happily continue to run fight effects. Seethe since you're so passionate about this already.
>>97320582Vexing Shusher is already played. Why would I not upgrade it?
>>97320616Anything from a UB set.
>>97320617It's relevant in a bracket above your Gisath pile anon.

>>97320660>a singular bracket jump where the difference is "anything goes!" to "anything goes!" somehow matters Stay retarded, friend.
So did Krenko get a nosejob or something?
>>97320662silly me, this doesn't actually do anything
>>97317394>not keeping your commander triple sleeved in a top loader and magnetic case with saran wrap and a tinfoil basengmi
>>97320334shorikai tends towards hard stax and control setups since it is itself both a control finisher and a card draw engine.mtg angels are, with three exceptions, consistently 'lady with wings' because of, uh, serra I guess. the closest might be phyrexian angels. also mondrak.
>>97320674I keep two of mine in one of those heavy kind of cases desu

>>97320210The RC chose to ban Dockside, not wotc. Remember it is always in wotc's interest to ban nothing if possible to push the most sales. They did not care about the state of an unsanctioned casual first format. The RC floated the updated list to wotc for the last rounds of bans and were met with a resounding "please do not do that." They did it anyway, and the backlash was bad enough to kill the RC and put wotc in charge. wotc is now in an awkward spot where these dockside reprints (which were suppose to be chase rares) are hitting the shelves while the card is essentially a paper weight. If they walk back the ban and move it to a GC they vindicate every investor monkey who flipped out to do that any time a card is banned in the future.
What are you going to with this?
>>97320733Biovisionary memes
>>97320731finally, an anon with a brain around here>they vindicate every investor monkey who flipped out to do that any time a card is banned in the futureso basically chronicles 2 electric boogaloo, wotc should just bite the bullet and make dockside a GC already, the RC's dead anyway, serves them right

>>97320974because buster sword isn't for voltron, but for commanders whose gameplan revolves around casting generically good spells>cloud's sword is ironically better used by squall

Any good tech for this? All I can think of is Painter's Servant and Scuttlemutt and I don't really know what I would be aiming to do with changing colors other than it just being unique and fun
>>97321510>This is what they call a Gorgon nowadaysShe's neither snakey nor does she have snakes for hair. She doesn't even have tendril hair like Ravnican Gorgons! This is literally a white chick with braids!
>>97321545I have nothing to back this up but supposedly there was concept art leaked for a character from Reality Fracture who was supposed to be the daughter of Jace and Vraska and this card looks like that character.Idk. Make of it what you will.
>>97321545I mean, at least she's decently attractive, so we have that.Though I'm not sure if her skin is a greenish-yellow, or if it's the lighting or some combination
>>97318822This happened by the way.
>>97318822this story is real to me
>>97321639Kek okay that's kinda funny
>>97320733Night doesn't rhyme with tonight.
>>97321510>>97321545>>97321564Best I could do for source. Some guy on facebook with a screenshot of art. It's too soon for it to be fan art so I assume its a leak but idk from where. Retard made the post as if people would just know the context of the Reality Fracture leak.

>>97321996surely it doesn't take decades for flowers to bloom in Lorwyn
Everyone else gay for companions in EDH? Show me your wildest companion deck and sell me on it.
>>97321545She's half human.
>>97321510Why would you want Painters servant here? You seem dumb. Cards retarded by the way, nothing remotely interesting about it. Its just a mother of runes clone.
>>97320904>anime is for kids (an adult typed this)>boomer coded post unc (a child typed this, proving his point)Zoomers are way toooooo stupid to function.
>>97320916This game was made by adults and for adults. Age guides just means it has content that you should be at least X years old to engage with. Kinda like how a game rated T for Teens isnt actually only for, or just made for, teens. It simply has content you wouldnt want someone younger engaging with. Earnestly believing the drivel you typed reflects really poorly on you, the typer.
>>97322498Painter’s Servant makes all permanents and spells the same color, dipshit. It means without tapping Tam all of your shit is hexproof
>>97321510>See the most simple and straight forward as possible card>Woah guys, anything interesting and secret techs for this?!I swear to God, I'd wizards started to make big titty legendary vanilla creatures you wouldn't be able to figure out how to build those either.
I’m loving Lorwyn but holy shit the commons in this set are so bad. Like unusually unplayable. It’s going to be an interesting draft environment
>>97322543Are you some kind of fucking moron? There’s nothing straightforward about it. Changing colors is not a common effect in this game, and it is incredibly obscure how you take advantage of what she does. Go ahead, Mr Straightforward, give us the decklist if it’s so obvious
>>97322559>All colors matter cards are rare and hard to look up.I'm not building your shitty commander for you
My god he's still talking about anime.Is this the first post you've made that got replies or what?
>>97322559Its literally just mother of runes anon. There really isnt much to do here, you just want there to be. Color matters stuff is GENERALLY hate related. It doesnt interact with devotion or chroma at all. Interacts with Vivid, that is about it. I know it *seems* interesting but its really not because again, it amounts to Simic mother of runes.
>>97322555Why? Every draft environment is practically the same these days
Post commanders that are a brewer's wet dream and don't have an "obvious" path to take them down. This guy can be reanimator, ETB value, control, voltron, "secret commander," tribal, combo, etc
>>97322600It simic skerlv, except don't make it unblockable.
>>97322610It's nothing like Skrelv
>>97322610.... this is mother of runes anon
>>97322620Mother of runes gives protection. Protection is very different than hexproof.
>>97322609some of the upkeep tax elder dragon, unironicallycertain pahs may be better than ithers but it is nice, because they aren't so pushed the rest of the deck can be built to revolve around them or use them as a secondary win condition/enabler
>>97322631I wouldn't say that's the same. That's more the idea that your commander is so shit that you can build whatever 3-color pile your heart desires. (Besides maybe Nicol Bolas whose effect is actually powerful with warstorm surge effects)
>a Sol Ring with birds in the art >you guys didn't tell meDo you lads KNOW how long I have waited for a Sol Ring to fit my birb deck that is (almost) entirely all bird art?
>>97322609Was so happy to see this guy spoiledeven if I never build him, he feels so much like an old commander
>>97322568>>97322600>what can I do with this?>”its so straightforward!!!!”>okay go ahead then>”heh I’m not telling”>”no theres nothing actually”Fucking GG I guess
>>97322629No like this is literally considered a redundant mother of runes effect>ermmm but its not 1:1 and im RETARDED!Neither is giver of runes or any of the other cards that functionally do the same thing. You aren't intelligent for pointing out the obvious differences while ignoring the obvious similarities. Please and your worthless existence my fucking god

>>97322676Daring today, aren't we?
>>97322669>Getting this asshurt over nothingDo you lose your shit when the walmart bathroom is closed and you have to walk to the other side to piss and fantasize about burning the store down?
>>97322667What are you confused about? It is an incredibly open ended card, because all it does is protect a creature. As I said in the fucking post you responded, color matters stuff is by and large HATE relates OR cost reduction. Neither of which will come into play here. So yes, in the way you want there to be something, there isnt, at least not enough to tailor a deck around. But the protection effect, yes! That is a good piece of tech that is hard to find in simic. You should kill yourself too.
>>97322676>Papa_Pubstomp>Narset.You cheeky fucker. Looks fun, but this is still at least a 2.
>>97322681No one's asshurt anon. You should just die for being so fucking retarded and typing worthless stuff because you have an embarrassing need to feel intelligent.
>>97322693Definitely. Only wincon is combat damage. Very fun deck though. You're just pecking people all game and annoying them with the flying damage.
>>97322659In a similar vein there's tevalwhich is ironic since his precon counterpart is some of the most boring goodstuff slop in existence
>>97322555Who cares about draft lmao it's just a made up format designed to give wotc an excuse to keep padding out packs with garbage cards
>>97322659>>97322716>these two fucking kino>precon Betor a fun way of playing with life gain and life loss>then fucking Shiko and Ureni with nothing interesting on either cardBeing a Jeskaifag is suffering.
Simic has the most boring fucking generic value cards in the entire game.
>>97322726Anon. What the fuck do you think happens if WotC made packs 100% “good” cards?The definition of “good” would fucking shift you retard.
>>97322726People care enough about draft to obfuscate its actual paypig nature in an attempt to belittle UB enjoyers
>>97322731Shiko and Narset however are very interesting. You can build them with basically any strategy that focuses on a single target.
I know it's bland as fuck, but does anyone have recommendations for a Krenko mob boss deck? I feel like trying to hit the stack overflow with goblins.
>>97322753Docksi- oof.. thats right. Gobliniggers and pubstompers never recovered from this one.
>>97322734I was going to say this same thing but then I realized it would be like explaining quantum theory to a literal retard. They won't get it. Bad cards have to exist and furthermore, bad cards can be fun.
>>97322754But enough about the RC
>>97322753He's the #4 most-played commander of all time. Literally just google it.
>>97322754>>97322762>remove the ban list entirely>add a new Super GC rule for the especially egregious cards like time walk>if you have a Super GC, you instantly go in bracket 4/5There, I fixed the game.
>>97322777Nah I would rather never have to ever see a fucking Dockside Extortionist ever again. Fuck that card and fuck the people who play it.
>>97322777Wotc has never unbanned a reserved list card in any format and they wont start in edh
>>97322784Too bad for you.
>>97322609they really need to find a way to include flavor text on essay cardsthe game is so boring without it
>>97322799Just do what yugioh does and make the text as small as humanly possible so the card looks like absolute shit
>>97322799I'm mad that they remove flavor and reminder text on extended art cards. Why do they even do that?
>>97320130this is why star trek will be the only good set this year and only if whoever is in charge of design rightfully trashes the kurtzman legacy at every opportunity>>97320147not possible, these characters were developed for television, not a novelthey'll look as true to the actors as possible so as to capitalize on CBS' dubious ownership of their likeness
>>97322609Pretty much any commander that doesn't have a hyper-specific triggered ability fits the bill.
>>97322805lmao my essay tribal deck already gives this impression to newcomers, they've literally said as much >>97322820honestly at this point they could probably get away with excluding the rules text from extended art printings. its not 2005 anymore, everyone has a smart phone even if they somehow only own the extended art version and haven't seen the card elsewhere.
anyone have any good design ideas on how you could edit in flavor text on existing cards without being extremely cringe? maybe a shadow signature style over the rules text would look okay? obviously only UB or cards with direct quotes from licensed source material, no homebrew cringe.
>>97322753>Goblin Slayer>2WW>Legendary Creature - Human Mercenary>Vigilance>Protection from creatures with power 3 or less>All creatures with power 3 or less able to block Goblin Slayer do so>Goblin Slayer can block any number of creatures with power 3 or lessone day...
>>973228754/4 ofc
>>97322840>everyone has a smart phoneNot everyone in /edhg/ though
>Bulk rares at LGS include a lot of borderline NM/LP extended art foils and foil planeswalkers.Has any other traditional game ever experienced power creep of this severity? Goddamn, UB reprintings were a mistake.
>>97322820They used to drop both, but now only drop reminder text. I think it's a tidiness thing, but the feedback was that people really wanted to keep the flavor.
>>97322905Rares suck ass though. Even most mythics are mediocre right out of the pack.
>>97322916even just from a collector's perspective having your rare alternate arts valued at less than 20 cents can't be good for your brandi guess they just have slopcows that consoom everything anyway but its not a good portent for things to come when the face of your brand (Jace) is sitting in the bargain bin
>>97322905Not very familiar with either YGO or Pokemon, I take it? It happens with every card game if it runs long enough.
>>97322935i have a normie level exposure to both, played them on the playground and some of the video games and shit. sad if this is true, it killed some small amount of childhood wonder i had left to see some of those cards i used to gawk at going for bulk.
>>97322928wotc doesn't want collectors (speculators), they want collectors (I'm going to open packs until I get a full set because it's of my favorite other media)
>>97322905yeah, and they have the nerve to ask $1 for a shitty rare
>>97322945at least until they buy up circulation and coopt premodern like they did with edh lol>>97322949my LGS does 20 cents per card for sets of 5, which makes it a decent deal just for building cubes or playing "cards i own" kitchen table. i guess if i were really committed i could technically flip most for a $.05 profit at least, but i just want to build the kind of collection that was fun to homebrew in as a kid (in addition to filling out my b2/b3 decks with suboptimal rares)
>>97322905Rares don't matter unless it's a stand out one that's stronger than Wizard's thought it would be in their "testing". Foiling matters even less. It has nothing to do with UB. This is just how card games are.
>>97322726Draft is by far the funnest way to play magic. You should get a hob so you can try it
>>97322966I have no interest in getting into what's going to undoubtedly be some weird black-and-white argument with you, as I'm talking about several different things that have varying levels of price impact. But at least a third of my most recent crop is stuff with a price history of $5+ that has cratered after an early print-to-demand UB Secret Lair drop that's sitting at $20.
>>97322928>the face of your brand (Jace) is sitting in the bargain binWhat? If anything you'd want the face to be easily accessible by the majority. You wouldn't want someone new to the game who wants to play popular character to have to dump stupid amounts of money to even try. You'd want the barrier to entry to be low as possible financially to hook them and then gouge them with the actually good cards which are no name assholes. Though I wouldn't say magic really has any characters that would hook some new commer so the point is moot anyway.
You guys ever psychologically dominate people in game? >tell player (during his turn) that I'm going to swing out and kill him, so no surprises if he doesnt swing out>he attacks me with everything>cast pic rel and puts it on top>he seethes when I mindgrind>tempt with mayhem and show and tell>'GUYS DONT COPY IT, DONT PUT ANYTHING ON THE BOARD, ITS ALL A PART OF HIS MASTER PLAN'>drop kaervek the merciless and fiery emancipation>guy underworld breaches>if you cast torment of hailfire, I'm going to win>casts torment of hailfire>copy it >narset his force of will but he has no blue cards in hand to exile>win
>>97322997Read your post and see if you can figure out why I'm closing the tab. Hint: It has nothing to do with feeling owned but it is the same reason people seem to find reasons to leave wherever you go.
>>97322997>Though I wouldn't say magic really has any characters that would hook some new commerAkroma was organically popular in her day, shame that wotc never capitalized
>>97323008It's easy to dominate bad players yes
>>97322777>every upper tier deck just mulligans into as many Power 9 as possible + a wheel>It's so bad that even Flash Hulk is powercrept out of existence despite also being unbanned>Seat 1 win rate: like 90% let's be honest
>>97322905The text on the card is worth more than anything. Art only matters when its connected to a card where the text on it matters.
>>97322777Genuinely one of the worst ideas ive ever read you should work for wotc
nrw rule: first player has to tuck one caed from ther starting hand before they draw
>>97322734>>97322758Intentionally introducing bad cards is retarded and you're retarded for defending it. You can still have smaller packs with playable to good cards, and introduce alt arts to be the chase to keep investards interested in the game. Sorry you're too deep in your paypiggie corpobootlicker trough to understand why putting 6 mana 3/5 pay 4 mana to give it +2/0 until end of turn just to pad packs is dumbass faggot game design
>>97323089Man imagine draft chaff mindbreaking someone, couldnt be me!
>>97323115Imagine defending shit game design.
>>97323089>this is dumb>argue my position no thank you!Why do retards sperg like this? Draft is fun and "bad" cards have a necessary place in the games health. You cant draft games if there's no tempo to develop and its just random bomb after bomb.>but I dont like draftEveryone does or they are just too poor to do it
>>97323089Rocks ass in my big mana activated abilities deck.
>>97323126What does draft have to do with your inability to procure genuine edh staples again?
Legacy playable draft chaff. Chaff isnt necessarily bad. Youre just bad at magic anon.Image limit reached its supposed to be trolls of khazad dun
>>97323137Don't know what you're talking about, don't drag me into your schizo argument with some other anon >>97323128> "bad" cards have a necessary place in the games healthNo and the fact you think this shows exactly why you're a retard. There's still pawns in a game with queens in chess. Having pieces you can only move 1 space diagonally every other turn which can't take anything other than pawns would be fucking retarded. Most people want to play good balanced games, not gamble and larp as an investard.
>>97323150>comparing a game with perfect information like chess to a gambling game where packs are sealed and you dont see player's handsYou just hate people with disposable income and you also hate yourself for liking a game whose primary audience are people with disposable income because you dont have moneyLolololol
>>97323126Name a single tcg that has packs without draft chaff
>>97323168... keyforge?
>>97323168He'll say chess, obviously
>>97323150Whats chess got to do with this? Can you defend your position while remaining within the context of MTG? Screeching retard like a toddler isnt convincing. Get a job and go draft its fun
>>97323176Can you defend your position without trying to say everyone who disagrees with you is poor? Or did I lose you by comparing one game to another that is widely considered one of the most balanced every created in human history and not using a food analogy.>>97323168And your point is? Yes, I understand most TCGs are created to make money first and foremost, not to be good balanced games, and using boosters to trick retards with the gambling gene is the best way to do so for the game. It doesn't mean we have to like or support it.
>>97323186Why arent you in /chess/ again?Oh that's right, you have a chip on your shoulder for not being able to afford a luxury cardboard hobby and you're lashing out hoping to drag along other people, because if you cant enjoy mtg then no one should lmao
>>97323186I already did anon :) if you weren't such a seething poorfag you would've been able to grasp it.>appealing to traditionChess isnt considered the most balance though, by literally anyone, seeing as turn order exists. This is painfully basic knowledge. They are also entirely different games. Like looking at counter strike balance and using that as a standard for puzzle game balance. You are poor AND retarded, painful duo.

>>97323393You're just retarded dude, bad cards will always exist because cards are always defined relative to each other. Circumstances dictate a card's utility in every context, even as cards with more general and less specific uses exist.
Just need to add this card into the next set and EDH is solved!Hilario's will0Instant/Sorcery/Enchantment/Land/CreatureYou may have any number of Hilario's will in a deck. This card is powerful enough to ignore bans.As you play this card, reveal your intent, you may play this as a land, except it's a command tower. You may cast this as a creature, if you do, it's a copy of your commander or any other creature, except it isn't legendary. You may cast this as an instant, if you do, choose target card on the stack or on the battlefield, you may choose to exile, return it, destroy it, or turn it face down. You may cast this as a sorcery, if you do, exile all non-land permanents your opponents control.You may cast this as an enchantment, if you do, this card has "Whenever a player does a thing, draw a card"
So, in an effort to right this ship: What are some generically powerful cards lowryn has that will probably be showing up a lot in commander decks?
