Which one did you build?
Thirty (30) starting life is objectively superior to fourty (40)
>>97433590Crazy numbers, that's only 66 less than the total pool of commanders in 2014. They should really pump the brakes on printing legends.
>>97433590>TQYou're off by 400.
>>97433629Gotta take out Zoidberg too he's UB
So do I just put Morcant as the new commander for my elf deck and I'll be all set?
Finally came in the mail. Had to order it from frogland.
This bitch is so fucking slept on
>>97433766I play her in Terra since Terra revives creatures tapped.
>pay 4 mana and 1 life to draw 1 card in one turn; 5 mana and 2 life to draw 2 cards in 2 turns; 6 mana and 3 life to draw 3 cards in 3 turns; 7 mana and 4 life to draw 4 cards in 4 turns; etc. (All if the enchantment is still in play)>pay 3 mana to get nothing in one turn; 3 mana and 1 life to draw 1 card in 2 turns; 3 mana and 2 life to draw 2 cards in 3 turns; pay 3 mana and 3 life to draw 3 cards in 4 turns; etc. (all if the enchantment is still in play)>pay 2 mana to get nothing in 1 turn; pay 2 mana and 1 life to get 1 card in 2 turns; pay 2 mana and 2 life two get 2 cards in 3 turns; pay 2 mana and 3 life to get 3 cards in 4 turns (all if the enchantment and an enchanted creature you control is still in play)vs>pay 2 mana and 2 life teo draw 2 cards in one turn>pay 4 mana and 3 life to draw 3 cards in one turn
>>97433766If your deck has alternate ways to tap her or provides evasion, sure. Otherwise she's just attacking and dies to a ham sandwich. Also tutoring is unfun.
>>97433803>Also tutoring is unfunImagine not liking toolbox decks. Disgusting.
>>97433645it's a very boring deck, but yeah.like 80+ combinations to generate Morcant into an infinite situation one way or another.She needed to have her cost increased.
>>97433590Trying to get this dude down to 100 cards right now. Stuck at 104.https://moxfield.com/decks/JW3q1efRIEq3jE36_75jdw
Hi /edhg/, I'm a total noob wanting to start playing casual commander with friends. Some are using precons with no changes yet (final fantasy counter blitz, 40k Tyranid one, etc) and one is using a custom deck based on isshin, two heavens as one (the deck is probably worth about £100-150 and hasn't seemed oppressive when we've played against it so far). I don't know much about power levels etc and don't want to be a cheese lord - any chance a kind anon would review a decklist I've put together and given me some frank feedback if anything in it is considered OP, etc? I want to play an aura/equipment deck using galea, kindler of hope as commander and would like to know if I need to tone it down and put in some cards from the unmodified aura of courage precon, etc.Decklist on moxfield is here:https://moxfield.com/decks/rDZTAtOwyEKb-xoJrIpVbAThanks in advance and obviously tell me to fuck off if you prefer
>>97433833Questions to ask yourself before asking us:>What is the deck trying to do?>does this card (every card) work towards that goal?>does this card do its thing in a amana efficient way?>do I have 10+ forms of removal?>do I have 2+ boardwipes?Then specifically for commanders with 4 mana cost:>do I want to have my commander out turn 3?>if so, do I have enough 2 mana ramp (7+) to achieve that consistantly?Also tell all of us this stuff (besides individual card assessments) because it helps us understand what you're going for.
>>97433590>TQI built Betor because I like Abzan cards individually but never really had a stable Abzan deck in my lineup. Balancing self-damage and life gain was fun, though I always denigrate Betor by saying he's just Meren + White, which he is. But any lifelink creature slowly growing in power + Meren's naturally slow attrition based gameplan was enticing for my stax heart. It's gone through a lot of iterations and versions, like a smokestack version that had more token generation (Go-wides are sometimes a problem with this current version, but I usually can just slot in massacrer wurm if I feel like that's an issue). I slot in Perch Protection for a two-card combo with Vapors if I don't think a pod will bitch about it. Preston got blown the fuck out by some random rare in the new set that I didn't pull. Some cards aren't present because they were just too good and bracket 3 players on spelltable would ragequit over like accursed marauder loops and whatnot.
>>97433833very Reddit post, but since you are new, here's some elementary advice:>36+ lands (36 is really low for 99% of casual decks)>around 20 points of interaction (removal+protection)>instant spells/interactions are more important than you think and can turn entire games aroundpersonal opinion: custom decks and precons do not mix well, except if you are building your deck to be shit on purpose (high average mana cost, next to no 1 and 2 drops, dogshit draw)
>>97433825Teysa has nothing thematically to do with Papalymo tho. She's honestly better as an Ardbert
>>97433910>around 20 points of interaction (removal+protection)when you're new especially remember that cards that do multiple potential things can make your life a lot easier since you need less of a perfect balance of all your deck components and just run into more situations where you can do something even if it's a little subpar. this creature might just be a 3/3 for 5. or it could be the removal you need to not die, to kill someone, or the 3/3 reach you need to stop a big flying attacker or the 3/3 flyer you need to get a damage trigger on someone with blockers. unless you're in a pod where efficiency is absolutely necessary, these cards make deck building a lot easier
>>97433825>>97433923Also I don't think you read the card very closely, he's not aristocrats he sacs himself. I think you wanna play Amalia
>>97433590>We got 484 new commanders in 2025. Which one did you build?Has a ton of triggers where when something dies, I create a zombie. So I sac him over and over and over and bring him back with the Adventure clause he has each time. It's a lot of fun
>>97433833Cut>arbor elfDoes nothing w/o a forest and when you do have a forest it's a llanowar elves 99% of the times because you don't have enough land auras to consistantly have one, much less more than one.>quasali pridemateYou deck doesn't seem to be built around attacking with one creature so exalted doesn't function, and remoal is nice but there are much more efficient removal pieces.>sythisYou have almost no enchantments.>slippery scoundrelThere are much better unblockable creatures>eidolon of blossomsYou have almost no enchantments.>kestiaYou have almost no enchantments.>sigardaNo synergy.>Sovreigns of lost elaraYou aren't really attacking alone as far as I can tell>promise of loyaltyYou probably want more than one creature. There are other boardwipes that work based on other things you're doing.>stubbord denialNot enough counterspells to justify running any counterspells.>arcane denialNot enough counterspells to justify running any counterspells.>kabira takedownNot a good card.>brainstoneNot a good card.>colossus hammerAs far as I can tell you don't have condistant ways to cheat this onto a creature, so it doesn't really do much.>mandibular kiteNot a good card.>firemind vesselNot a good card.>grappling hookVery mana inefficient>argentum armorSame issue as colossus hammer but slightly more justifiable cause it's repeatable removal.>wolfwillow havenThis is your only land enchantment, so I don't know why you are running it.>25 landsThis is absurdly low, eve for a cedh deck, much this is not. This is closer to the number of lands you expect in a 60 card deck, not a 100 card deck. You should have at least 36, unless your average mana value is under ~2.2, but ideally 38 considering your mana curve. As it is this deck is basically unplayable.>almost no removalYou should have 10+ removal cards, ideally ones that removal multiple permanents.>almost no rampThis can be justified if your average cmc is low. Yours isn't.
>>97433923>ardbert>color identity>legendary creaturesWhat does this have to do with teysa? Also the deck is papalymo, I was just trying to find an in universe character that would fit, and I liked the art of teysa here.>>97433936>he's not aristocrats, he sacs himselfFor the purposes of my deck the only important part is lifeloss/gain on spells, which I couldn't really find a character for in similar colors.>Amalia>one card>she explores and boardwipesI don't see how that's any better.
>>97433923>>97433936I remember now. I ch9se trysa not because of her abilities, but because she's now part of the ghost cousil, and the ghost counsil's abilities tend to be life loss/gain.
>>97433820I only know the 5 mana enchantment that does it
>TQBuilt the top 2, bottom are on the back burner.
>>97433812Tutoring is a design mistake.
>>97433590>TQPic related, also Vnwyxt, Dr. Eggman, Eddie Brock//Venom, Suki, courageous rescuer, Suki, Kyoshi Captain, Tataru Taru, Minwu, Cyan, Stilzskin, Anti-venom, and Alisaie Leveillur partnerless all in paper.Wow, that's a lot of UB slop I built this year.
>TQI replaced Lord Windgrace with HearthullI built AzulaAt some point I'll look into building Metalbender Toph, though I suspect her deck isn't as interesting as it appears. Everything else went into upgrades for existing decks.
>>97433616They are, the TMNT set had several named characters that got genericized
she's boskeletonrp
>>97434281>spoilerWhat
Thanks for the advice to those who responded! in brief it looks like i have a bunch of poorly optimized/low-synergy picks (not so much of an issue from my perspective as i am not aiming for a super high power deck straight away) but also a stupidly low number of lands, removal, and ramp (which i plan to address)>>97433889>What is the deck trying to do? As i understand it, i think the idea is to end up stacking a relatively few number of creatures with a lot of buffs and useful offensive keywords to beat everyone else's creatures and swing into commander health. >does this card (every card) work towards that goal?>does this card do its thing in a a mana efficient way?this to be honest i am unsure about as i am just starting to dip my toes into the water, and i know there is a metric fuckton of cards out there that do similar things for varying degrees of efficiency.>do I have 10+ forms of removal?no, i don't - will look to add some (probably at the expense of some creatures)>do I have 2+ boardwipes?i have 2 (ish); eternal wanderer max loyalty ability, and dismantling wave - will add a couple moreThen specifically for commanders with 4 mana cost:>do I want to have my commander out turn 3?i think i want my commander out ASAP to capitalize on their ability>if so, do I have enough 2 mana ramp (7+) to achieve that consistantly?i definitely don't right now (only sol ring and firemind vessel provide more than 1 net mana), i will look at some more sources for it
>>97434141Got any hot tech for Gonti?
>>97433910noted re. lands, i will probably drop a bunch of creatures for another 10-ish landswill also add some more removal/protection pieces to my collection when i get some more cards soonalso noted and well understood regarding the mixing of precons and custom decks - for now i am basically deliberately trying to make the deck reasonably shit/poorly optimized with plenty of headspace to swap in more efficient/useful cards if we end up power creeping.>>97433929thanks - i think some of the cards i selected do have multiple roles but quite a few don't - as i am very new i don't really know any efficient/popular staple/signature cards for any particular purpose so hopefully that will come in time as i spend more time playing and browsing through the available cards etc.>>97433992lots of specific and very useful feedback in here - thankyou. i don't necessarily have an issue right now with including inefficient/suboptimal things in the deck, as i think we are going to be playing very casually for the foreseeable future and i'd be more worried about accidentally building something overpowered relative to the rest of the group, than the inverse. too many points to respond to everything individually, but in summary i am going to look to drop a bunch of creatures and less useful things to add at least 10 more lands, and some removal/ramp cards additionally.if the deck is inconsistent at this stage it's something i can live with whilst i get a feel for how well optimized (or not) everyone else's decks are.
>>97434339>there are a lot of cards with varying degrees of efficiencyThe efficientcy takes experiance, certainly, but a good note for the higher cost cards is that if a card cost 6+ mana to do its thing, and that thing isn't winning you the game very quickly, it's probably not worth it unless you can make it cost less consistantly, or you have a ton of ramp so it doesn't matter. The bigger part is knowing if the card properly works towards your goal.>sol ring and firemind vesselBy 2 mana ramp I meant ramp that costs 2 mana so that you can play it on turn 2, so that on turn 3 you can play your commander, like rampent growth or arcane signet.
>>97434339One last thing: never consider your planewalker's ult unless you have ways to very consistantly get it, cause it's probably never going off.
>>97434186You're probably right based on how many of them are banned in various formats and how little they get printed but I can't help but love Birthing Pod.
>>97433590>We got 484 new commanders in 2025. Which one did you build?I was certain I would've built at least one commander from Final Fantasy. Then I looked back and realized despite the, what, 80+ legendaries in the set? They're not particularly interesting.I think the only legendary I actually built from all of '25 was Shiko & Narset curses. Which is discouraging, since I'm always looking for new legendaries that might be fun to build.
>>97433803Lewis
>>97433803>Also tutoring is unfunFaggot
>>97434345>going up to 35 lands This is a good start but I will again suggest you add more lands.42 is the mathematically optimal number of lands in a casual deck. Especially if you have mdfcs (spells on one side, lands on the other)38 is the number you want if you want to hit your first 4 land drops relatively consistently (which every deck that doesn't win on turn 4 likely wants).37 lands is if you're confident in your deck. 36 lands is when you know exactly what your ideal opening hands are. At 35 or less, you're running dedicated early draw to hit land drops, which your deck fumbles with.Lands are what let you play the game. You can have a full hand of 4-mana cards that win you the game but they're just pretty pictures with no text if you only have 3 lands on turn 5.My personal sweet spot is 40 lands if you expect the game to go 8+ turns, 38 lands if you expect 6+, 36 if you can win the game on turn 4.For a deck like yours, I would suggest 40. If 40 is too high, 38.I would not suggest any number below 38 until you've played a few games and know what cards you want to cut and what cards you want to keep.
>>97434393>>97434407more good advice - thanks!i'm looking at 2 mana ramp cards now based on your explanation.also good point about the planeswalker ult - i thought this would likely be the case but good to have it confirmed by someone with more experience. will add some more reliable boardwipe stuff to compensate
>>97434474thanks, this is very clear - i will aim to run 42 lands to start with and will reduce them if/when i get the hang of what i'm doing.
>>97434444Yes yes, we've all seen your combo the last time tutored for it.
>>97434283it's a really obscure /v/ meme from ages ago
>>97434518Just remember that cards can be swapped in and out. Nothing's ever permanent or irreversible. At some point you're going to want to cut lands for more cards because you want to get more action out of your deck. That's natural. By then, you'll have more experience and a better idea of what you and your deck want to do, so cutting lands becomes a viable option since you know what you'll be doing to an extent. And if you don't like it, you can put those lands back in. At some point you're going to be in a position where all you have in hand are lands and you really need a card that will win you the game or keep you from losing, but you're going to draw a land and get frustrated at it. Again, this is natural and happens to everyone. It happens to people running 28 lands in competitive commander too.Your gut reaction is going to be that you have too many lands, and you're going to think that you need to cut lands from your deck. This is incorrect. The important takeaway when that happens to you is that it's not the number of lands in your deck, but the fact that lands will stay in your hand the longest because you can normally only play one of them a turn. What it actually means when you're in that position is that your deck needs more card DRAW or other ways to get cards into your hand, like spells to get cards from your grave into hand, or cards that let you exile cards off the top of your library and play them, or cards on the field that you can pump mana into so your lands aren't going to waste. Learn that lesson sooner rather than later and you'll skip right past the "new player valley of depression" where you cut your lands for bombs and suddenly your deck stops working entirely.
What are some other hidden gems of commanders?
>>97434343Nah, its just basic treasure and theft synergies, its meant just to be a lower power 3.
>>97434568>Unfinity
>>97434343>>97434577It's specifically "mana of any type" rather than any color so couldn't you use powerstone mana or even mishra's workshop while overriding the restriction?
>>97434474>>97434518This is a card game. Use math. Cards in deck N=99 L is land countX is the number of lands in the first n cards you’ve seen (7 for opening hand, 1 for draw on t1)Let D(t) be “extra cards drawn outside the normal draw step” by turn t (cantrips, other draw, etc, this informs land needs)K are 'hits' in your 99 (ramp, 2 drops, etc)r is your reliability target, p is probabilityThe more low mana draw effects you have, the less lands you need.
>>97434568not hidden, not a gem
>>97434596No, that mana is still restricted no matter what you do with it.
>>97434605Ah, had to look at another Gonti to get the syntax. "The six types of mana are white, blue, black, red, green, and colorless. Snow mana is not a type of mana." It's just 'mana of any color' that lets you pick colorless. Cowards.
>>97434141>GontiGod I'm so annoyed he's monoblack. Could've included so many more cards with the same effects in 2-3 colors. I wanna make a deck where people are getting 5+ cards a turn and have a fucking Mario Party type of experience
>>97434620>hating on monoyou are a soulless golem
>>97434630I have 6 monocolored decks. Your hate is unfounded.
>>97433590>We got 484 new commanders in 2025. Which one did you build?I have build monogreen Tifa, but I am also a fat piggy consoomer, I bought Y'shtola precon and almost all Tarkir ones (except Jeskai, I don't like Jeskai).
Don’t ask me how I know this but Barbie 2 is happening and WotC is planning a Barbie Universes Beyond that will introduce pink mana for that set only
>>97434630Wishing he hit another color so you could do more with his kit isn't hating on monocolor,
>Trade Offer>Cost: U>Type: Instant> As an additional cost to cast this spell, exile a card from your hand. >Counter target spell you don't control. Its controller may play the exiled card for as long as it remains in exile, and mana of any color may be spent to cast a spell this way.Balanced?
>>97434602I can't even do combat math.
>>97433590>We got 484 new commanders in 2025. Which one did you build?None. I only play old obscure commanders. Simple as.

I don't know anything about Magic but I like Final Fantasy and I thought it might be fun to get a deck just to have some cool cards, and also have a deck on hand so if I have a girl over I can be like, "oh you like Magic? You know I bought a deck a while ago but I never learned to play, do you think you could teach me?"As a Final Fantasy fan the deck I'd want to get is the Y'shtola one. But it's like 60 dollars while the two player starter set with two decks is 20 bucks. Why is the Y'shtola deck so much more expensive?
>>97434724Same here but I'm not a gigachad, I just think recent commanders have all been extremely obvious build arounds.>rats get +1/+1. rats cost 1 less to cast. when a rat enters, draw a card. T: create a rat token>spaceships get 2 charge counters. spaceships cost 1 less to cast. when a spaceship enters, draw a card. T: target spaceship becomes an artifact creature until end of turn>creatures with toughness greater than their power get +x/+x where x is the difference. creatures with toughness greater than their power cost 1 less to cast. when a creature with toughness greater than its power attacks, draw a card. T: target creature gets +0/+2 until end of turn>when x triggers, it triggers an additional time. when y happens, do x>if you would (make/add) one or more x, make/add (twice that many/that many plus an additional one) insteadCommander is less of a sandbox now and more of a lego kit. I know exactly what cards are in someone's deck based exclusively on their commander.
>>97434768>if I have a girl over I can be like, "oh you like Magic? You know I bought a deck a while ago but I never learned to play, do you think you could teach me?"confirmed bait lmao
>>97434738why not?
>>97434711There is a custom card general. Feel free to ask there instead.
>>97434768Yshtola deck is full of unique cards and powerful reprints for more high powered multiplayer magic while the starter kit is full of common/uncommon bulk you find in packs$20 vs $68.50 in secondary market value
>>97434793because it's unbalanced
>>97434776>>creatures with toughness greater than their power get +x/+x where x is the difference.If you mean this guy, you don't need toughness>power for its second effect, just a difference between the two.
>>97434798wait so it's literally just paying higher MSRP for better cards?
>>97434620No, if anything, constraints breed creativity. I've used cards like pic rel, lantern of insight, maralen of the mornsong to great effect with gonti. I took the deck apart because no one is interested in playing other people's cards. They view the exiled cards as fomo.
>>97434820they're for different things, commander is 4 player 100 card singleton while the starter decks are standard legal but they're full of cheap simple to understand cards that are really only meant to be played against eachother to learn the game
>>97434776>I know exactly what cards are in someone's deck based exclusively on their commander.Absolutr arrogance on display. What's my mekusar deck? What's my Zur deck? What's my Wulfgar deck? What's my Ephara deck? Krenko Kingpin? Atraxa? Inquisitor Eisenhorn? Svella? Mr. Foxhand? Marath? Sisay weathlight captain? Tenth Doctor + susan foreman?Not everyone net decks like some tool, mate.
>>97434815Forgot image

my friends started buying all the expensive game changers and now they bitch that i use removal on their rhystic studyone of them doesnt understand why he cant win when he added like 10 game changers to his kefka deck
>>97434854>still filled with commander-designed cardsNo thanks
>>97434521>All tutors are for comboI repeat;Faggot.
>>97434874>People still seething around Commander Designed cardsJust say you hate the fucking free spells and we should ban them.Like 80% of "Designed For Commander" cards suck massive amounts of ass and not even the timmiest of timmies play them.
Do people forget you're only supposed to win 25% of the time?
>>97434884sounds like loser talk
actually the most disgusting cards in commander are the ones that had downsides designed for lower life totals or single player. rhystic is a 3 mana do nothing in a format where someone can just fucking kill you.
>>97434841OK, so if I actually wanted to play I'd want the Y'shtola deck?
>>97434901Honestly if you and get your hands on them the foundations and avatar jumpstart packs are a great way to learn the game with friends. There's some decent value cards in them AND you only need two packs per person to mash together. If you're just trying to actually play you should get a commander precon yeah
>>97434910I don't really like Avatar, but I did really like FFXIV
>>97434845I can picture these decklists as clear as a summer's day
>>97434919thought that was the blow job brothers from arcadion for a second
>>97434845NTA but>What's my mekusar deck?Wheels>What's my Zur deck?Enchantment stax>What's my Wulfgar deck?

I'll go planeswalkers since I went with infect on Atraxa.>Tenth Doctor + susan foremanSome kind of cascade?
>>97434919It's like a $14 investment for a 40 card deck you're gonna play a few times with friends and then you'll have new cards to run with other stuff
>>97434901If you wanted to go outside and play with people yeahmtg arena is good for teaching the game
>>9743488150% of cards are designed for commander now. It's not just the free spells and things that specifically mention commander-specific mechanics.
>>97434711Could be printed in an un-set but not need an acorn, then get a non-joke printing in some Commander deck later.
>>97434940>WheelsNope, zero wheels>Enchantment staxNo stax, but some pillowfort effects.>Aggro, extra combatsAggro is pretty broad, too broad really, but more or less correct. Only one extra combat card.>Flash/BlinkNope, not at all>Voltron/Tribal, kind of how people play Imaryll.Voltron/tribal is a no. No tribal support.>This one is tough. I'll go Infect.Nope.>Aristocrats with cantripsNope.>ArtifactsThere is some synergy there, but I'm still going to say no.>Big creaturesNot in the slightest.>ComboI don't really know what you mean by this. If you mean I really want to get out a few specific cards and there's otherwise no wincon, then no.>This one is tough... I'll go planeswalkers since I went with infect on Atraxa.Nope.>Some kind of cascade?Some kind, yes, but the deck is more focused. I'll still give it to you.So 1/12. Don't judge a book by its cover. Ask what the other people at the table are doing with their deck beyond what their commander is.
For fellow Impulse Draw players (Faldorn in my case) what flexible removals do you play so it doesnt feel dead on an impulse? I need to find things that can get rid of Enchantment/Artifacts on the cheap with flexibility (Heritage Reclamation mvp, same with Archidruid charm) but has anyone tried with anything else that is low cmc always useful? Im debating on Dire-Strain Rampage since I can use it as ramp for my lite landfall kit, Hull Breach is another since it is cheap and can hit 2 targets. I dont mind sorcery speed, sadly can hardly afford to hold mana up when they get drawn on an impulse cause of timing. A tad more expensive but wouldve loved for Decimate to be "Choose one or more"
>>97433590Syr Vondam, I'm a big fan. Repeatable removal is incredibly good.

>>97434776There's nothing wrong with build around commanders. Decks haven't been an "expression of muh uniqueness" for years now. Simplicity is an artform unto itself and I'm glad decks like Rats and toughness matters are getting viable alternative commanders to helm their decks or tuck in the 99.
>>97434711You getting to choose the card is unbalanced. For 1 mana it should be minimum exile top 3 cards of your library.
>>97435073I thought Syr was just how it was on Eldraine
>>97435191No, Syr is the libshit way of spelling Sir to pretend it's gender neutral. Did you forget what game you were playing lmao
>>97434666>666please SATAN let this be REAL.personally don't mind u.b. except when it goes really really of the theme rails like TMNT + MARVEL, and this will only cause moar bitching and bullshit, esp if they dial up the D.E.I. and anti-coomer / attack on real women.black Barbie confirmed.
>friend: "I really think my deck could benefit from deflecting swat, but it costs so much>"You could run return the favor or untimely malfunction as budget options.">"Why would I want to run less effective cards?"Still boggles my mind that people think like this still.
>>97435236any deck that wants deflecting swat probably wants at least one of the less effective versions of deflecting swat too for consistency sake anywaysso why not get ahead of it
>>97435207I also thought it was just an eldraine thing because the title "Sir" seems to barely exist in magic's universe anyway. Pic is the only example I could even think of.
>>97435191>>97435280Confused the shit out of me that pic related is a gingerbread woman

>>97435372>YWNBAGBWnoiceyes i am olds balls, sorry my gatekeeping was ineffective
>>97433766she cute
Speaking of Gonti, thoughts on this bitch?
>>97435434proxie art > art direction of wizards of the woke.also the captcha seemes to be trolling or broken.pix unrelated
>>97435482Its just some bitch looking up without an expression.Your bar is incredibly low.
>>97435482As much as I hate wotc, most of the art itself is really good when they aren't trying to ape some other style. The choices people outside of the artists themselves make, like purposefully making chaarcters ugly, is a downer though.
>>97435236return the favor has won me 3 games this last week alone. >copy grapeshot storm trigger and redirect one of the counterspells>copy rise of the dark realm and mine resolves first>playing saruman the white>opponent has impulsivity etb trigger, copy it and redirect his to farseek, I cast call forth the tempest into isengard unleashed and soul immolation (16+ power army)
>>97435030>Ask what the other people at the table are doing with their deck beyond what their commander isNo, I'm going to pull up and we're going to play our decks.
>>97435518consider that, the bar is low and wotc still fucking can't reach it, gotta mutt-it-up.sloppredditor
>>97435445
>>97435546This art relates more to the card than what was posted before. Think you are just a brain dead idiot.
>>97435518it's not some bitch it's C.C.
>>97435564These would probably work better if I cut the MTG boxes and pasted them on the union arena card
>>97433590Do you guys think there’s a direct correlation between being poor, and lack of self control?Every time poor people get their hands on proxies, they immediately make the highest level CEDH deck in casual pods.Surely, there is some correlation between not being able to afford the cards, and the immediate degradation of character that happens when they become available.
I don't understand people who have more than 1 playmat. What are you doing with the others? Where do you even store them?
>>97435637yes
>>97435637>Do you guys think there’s a direct correlation between being poor, and lack of self control?I mean obviously, yeah. Poor people and criminal all have bad impulse control, that's how they end up in the situations they're in.
>>97435645One is for actual play. One is for putting cards on to make shitposts uploads with.
>>97435207But the fem version of Sir is Dame.And then lady for the spouse of a knight (Dame spouses traditionally get no title, but presumably it would be gentleman).Syr's just not a thing outside of eldraine.
>>97435645i have 9i just drape them over my couchdifferent art for different vibes and color combos
>>97434563This phenomenon is why I play Golgari decks more than any other color pair. The ability to have recurring resources in grave and self-mill as a form of pseudo-card selection means I get to see more cards than even the average blue deck, and topdecking a land rarely feels bad.
>>97435637Yes, but the causation for both is being stupid, which is a key distinguishing feature.I knew two different people IRL who dropped over $1000 on a Commander deck despite just starting the game, only to wonder why nobody wanted to play with them.Big surprise, the problem is always Commander players being stupid. Anything else is missing the forest for the trees.
>>97435612based arts & craftsman
>>97435645playing your esper deck on a green playmat is a fashion faux pas
>>97435637nope see plenty of people with disposable income do the exact same thing. people who graduate college and still can't figure out how the rules of MTG work after years of playing.
>>97435542As long as you don't assume anything about my deck.
>>97435696>But the fem version of Sir is Dame.Yeah? And? They're not naming things based on fucking reality you hyperautist. Dames aren't knights and WotC want a "genderneutral" title for a knight so they went with Syr.>Syr's just not a thing outside of eldraine.Literally the fucking basis of this conversation was someone posting a Syr card from EoE
>>97435729If you had half a brain you might be able to infer that a character using the "Syr" title in EoE is probably someone from eldraine who got there from an omenpath
>>97435802Vondam is not from Eldraine
>>97435802>If you had half a brain you might be able to infer that a character using the "Syr" title in EoE is probably someone from eldraine who got there from an omenpathhttps://magic.wizards.com/en/news/magic-story/the-legends-of-edge-of-eternitiesDoes this mean you have less than half a brain?
>>97434407>>97434509The Eternal Wanderer enters with enough loyalty to use her -4, making it reliable (just don't cast her until you need the board wipe).
>>97435869Also has a small cute smackable ass.Really an underrated PW.
>>97433766I use her in Zul Ashur. She's really good
>>97433629Of those the only one I was interested in was the Mimeoplasm. I just wish he exiled them with some kind of counter or something.
>>97433590>We got 484 new commanders in 2025. Which one did you build?EggmanJawsAmazing Spider-Man
>>97435236Some people can't see past high power cards so much they miss how versatile other similar cards can be. Even the ones that have other options to them. Especially with something like Return The Favor.
>>97435637Not just correlation, direct causation.As the old saying goes, "a fool and his money are soon parted."You CAN be poor and not be an impulsive idiot. I come from a long line. We've been slowly climbing in social class the last two generations, but it's been an arduous tooth-and-nail climb, and honestly one i'm not sure i live up to the legacy of.But even if you start with a silver spoon in your mouth, if you're an impulsive idiot the path to dirt poor is a fast and easy one. You see it play out basically every time someone wins the lottery. Only impulsive idiots play the lottery, anyone with sense knows the game is rigged against you and you're just throwing money away. And what happens when they win the multimillons, enough to live on for several modest lifetimes? It's all gone in a couple years. Not all rectangles are squares, but all squares are certainly rectangles.There is a breakpoint though. If someone gets rich enough they have smart people to make most of their decisions for them then as long as they don't pick someone malicious as one of their smart people and at least have the sense to let the smart people do their job, they'll stay rich.But it's only a cushioning effect, the truly stupid will go "Well of course i'm smart, i'm rich," ignore all of their smart advisors, fire their smart delegates and replace them with fellow idiots or no one, and ruin the empire their grandfather made. The bigger the empire the more it takes to destroy it, but nothing is ever actually too big to fail, you just need enough idiocy over enough positions and time.
>>97435645I have ten and lend some out to friends, use some as desk mats, and rotate through them based on mood
>>97435645You have two or more mats with art you like and you want to swap every now and then?
>>97435934>EggmanHow did you build your Eggman? I can't find the balance between discard and robots.
Chat, should I open it? Also have another box on the way.
>>97436043Stick it up your ass and post a pic with timestamp
>>97433590>TQI messed around with these three. Kraven is primarily fight spells. I like the idea of the deck but it needs some work to really balance things. Jameson is mostly just a pile of menace stuff with extra combat spells. Very direct and simple. Not much else to it but I like it for lowered powered tables. Shadow is primarily token makers that have their tokens die at end of turn and hasted stuff. Haven't really worked on it more than some initial diving through my bulk. They're all mostly in a in progress state and I'm not sure how much investment I want to put into them beyond that. There hasn't been anything else I was interested from 2025.
>>97436037This probably isn't up to date
>>97436043cum tribute
>>97436043Open it and then if you get a sexy Oko you have to cum tribute it.
>>97436037run the blue hedgehog from unfinity and all alliterative cards. how's your youtube poop impression?
>buy card I need for a deck yesterday, $5>mfw found it today in the bulkfuckits a dragon card too so i wont use this extra copy for anything
>>97436116trade binder.
>>97436116>>97436150Hold onto it, you never know when you're gonna want it again.As someone who only got into the game a few years ago, my biggest regret is selling off cards I thought I wouldn't need.You don't even know when that random fucking bulk common is going to have the perfect stats and effect to do something crazy with a new card.
>you're going to lose if you do that>don't backseat game me anon!>*loses*>wtf how could this happen?Why is this such a common occurrence? How do you stop it?
>>97436182you don't, just accept that players are retards
its weird how some cards are just entirely missing parts of their text
>>97436182>>97436204this.there's fixing ignorant. they just need to learn.there's fixing mentally disabled/slow. they just need more time to learn.there's no fixing stupid. they don't want to learn. horses to water, pearls before swine.
>>97436290it has useshttps://moxfield.com/decks/xoiRaszcykWMyQn9M3cTggjust not in EDH.
Why the fuck is JLK playing fucking Muster the Departed in Ashling the Limitless instead of pic related?>yeah bro let me play this 3 mana white enchantment that populates 1 at end step instead of this 3 mana white enchantment that copies every token of mine that entered this turn
>>97435482>proxyfag>"woke">broken englishneed a bingo card at this point
>>97436316where's the rest of the deck
>>97436317Probably because he's a really dumb and stupid retard as opposed to you, a smart and capable person of great acclaim.
>>97433590TQ: I built this Kilo proliferate/infect deck!
>watch Game Knights>11 fucking minutes of ads
>>97435546Ah, it's a brown ESL, that explains the seething.
>>97436440Ah, it's a brown ESL in charge of art direction and quality control at wotc, that would explain the seething.you almost had it anon.
>>97436354Is it unacceptable to have a Rebecca playmat?
>>9743649299% of rebecca art appears to be a nsfw loli
>>97436497Because she is a nsfw loli
>>97436290I use it in my Azami deck. Sometimes I'll actually play it to draw a card instead of cycling it. Very rarely tho.
Most fun Grixis commander? I can never make these colors work. Outside of Sauron
>>97436675AzulaInalla if your down with classics
>>97433590In commander, can players discuss which type of card they're discarding so you draw less cards?
>>97436734sure
>>97433985Does this count as BW when building your commander deck? Sorry I'm new
>>97436734the only reason why you wouldn't is the kefka player gets mad (nobody cares about that)
>>97436734it's why prisoner's dilemma is an awful card
>>>97436675Obeka, either one, and Ashnod. Everything else is boring and gay.
>>97436742yes
>>97436675I have three, Obeka, Obeka 2, and Azula. Obeka 1 is my favorite of the three as it's really open ended. Warp, Evoke, big creatures with bad ETBs, clones, and bounce lands all work with it. Obeka 2 is less interesting than I thought it would be, but still fairly enjoyable to play even if it ends up feeling like a combo deck. Azula I have not had a chance to play yet but I have her built with pump spells and fling abilities to try and make her big, do 21 commander damage and then fling her body at someone else.
Grixis players always act like they're 200 IQ players, but in reality are tryhard idiots who pilot their decks incorrectly
>xhe unironically uses the word grixis
Building any new decks?
>>97436498she's not a loli she's like 25.the proper term is petite.for that matter, she's got some hips, so flat shortstack is probably the most accurate description.
>>97437040This feels like it contradicts >>97436497
>>97437058I said appears.
>>97437040she is a loliif Kanna Kamui and Shuten Doujis are lolis (they are), then Rebecca is also a loli
>>97437040You niggas love jerking it to cartoon children until someone outside your sphere sees you and asks "isn't that a child?" and then you're all "muh thousand year old vampire!!!!!!!"You wouldn't come up with these copes if you were alone with your fellow pedos
>>97436946
>>97437111>>97437097>>97437040she is not a loli, she's of ageshe is a loli, she's intentionally designed in that vein of character archetype as stated by the animation studio
>>97437122Cartoons can't have ages, they only have their appearance.
>>97436915Do you have decklist I can look at for the first Obeka?
>>97437097no one thinks shuten is a loli just because she's small. kanna kamui is still prepubescent.you freaks always tell on yourselves.
>>97437122No one cares about the fake story about trigger
>>97437111God I hate Australia.
>>97433899>tainted sigil>leyline prowlerComfy list
>>97437141Shuten Douji is widely considered a loli.Kanna Kamui is thicker (wide hips, thick thighs) than Rebecca and she is very obviously a loli.Rebecca is a loli.
>>97437166I don't consider her a loli
>>97437124cartoons aren't even real people
>>97437169If you jerked it to cartoon women, I'd think you were probably straight. If you jerked it to cartoon men I'd think you were probably gay. If you jerk it to cartoon children...
>>97437168But Kanna Kamui is very obviously a loli, though.This is basically undeniable.>>97437178Lolis almost always have a bunch of characteristics that puts them significantly apart from real life prepubescent girls, both due to their nature as idealized and stylized figures and due to their appeal drawing mainly people who are not real pedophiles (unless you are a retard who thinks Japan has like orders of magnitude more pedophiles than anywhere on the world)
>>97435612would something like this be tournament legal as long as it weighs the same on a scale?
>>97437166ive met real life women build like rebecca and shuten douji.
>>97437178but enough about you running over people in GTA5 and removing creatures in mtg, mass murderer
>>97437185You wouldnt have to come up with these copes if you just didn't jerk it to cartoon children
>>97437190yeah, there are women who are very neotenous even as adults
>>97437189depends on the tournament and who cares? just do it
>>97437196and you wouldn't be so mad if mtg wasn't putting cartoon children in mtg>inb4 UB melty
>>97437205i'm wondering if i could get away with it in standard because if so it'd definitely be worth throwing my opponent off their game to cut up a netdeck and glue it onto furry diaper fetish art meticulously weighed to the milligram
>>97437208this is what I am talking aboutwhich deck would let me lolify most of my cards?no custom proxies ofc
>>97437190shuten is based off her VA, drawn as same height and weight
>>97437217it'll take a while, but eventually a GW loli deck will be possible
>>97437217something something, if you like goblins, you're just a pedo, something something.so goblins.
>>97437226>zero (0) femininity to either except the slightest of hip/torso shaping on toph so as to not be comically rectangularwotc and that artist REALLY did not want the smokekinda funny desu
>>97437234it gets funnier the longer you look, the towel on katara is nearly a straight vertical line
>>97437194>the "but enough about..." guy is a pedoLmao can't say I'm at all surprised.The difference is people aren't running down NPCs in GTA5 for sexual gratification. In fact if someone was jerking off to running down NPCs in GTA5 people would think that was pretty fucked up.
>>97437226>>97437234>>97437239Don't even know why they had to choose that scene. I guess maybe because it's not very magical if they're not bending an element in the card art? But they could have taken something else from that vignette like them walking together after getting their makeup done
>>97437194>doing these things in the context of a game is exactly the same as you being sexually aroused to depictions of children.You are running people over in a video game because it is part of the game, you are jerking of to children because you find children sexually attractive and the only thing preventing you from doing it to actual children is because it is illegal.Lets not pretend otherwise.
>>97437276yeah idk seems like just asking for a weird article to be written about it by one of the various factions who just can't seem to leave the witchhunting and line debating to paid law enforcement professionalsat least i understand why the uh... enthusiasts? are nervous, a van team could kick down their door any day over an obscenity law or whatever. it's the obsession of the "so creepy to comment on her pixels bro" crowd that really makes you think. whose safety are they defending, especially over the internet?
>>97437304>it's the obsession of the "so creepy to comment on her pixels bro" crowd that really makes you think. whose safety are they defending, especially over the internet?Overwhelmingly when pedos get their harddrives searched theres gigabytes of underaged "pixels" on there too.
>>97437273>The difference is people aren't running down NPCs in GTA5 for sexual gratificationactually the difference is that people are running down NPCs in GTA5 to feed their psychopathy (dark triad), but nobody is weired by it because at the end of the day a game isn't realityIn fact if you specifically said that Japan is nothing but a country of pedos everyone would laugh at you, that's why you don't :)>>97437281reminder that you actually can finish GTA5 without running over innocent civilians and you partaking in it is proof that you are socially deviant and the only thing preventing you from doing it to actual people is because it is illegal.Lets not pretend otherwise,
>>97437318>underaged pixelsyou really typed this with a straight face and think its an own of some kindthere's probably also a word processor on their computer, retard
this triggers the schizo
>>97437325>actually the difference is that people are running down NPCs in GTA5 to feed their psychopathy (dark triad),[citation needed]>In fact if you specifically said that Japan is nothing but a country of pedos everyone would laugh at you, that's why you don't :)Nothing but? No. But Japan's underaged brothels have been subject to international criticism. Don't tend to hear about Western countries having those sooooo
>>97437326on top of that, while i refuse to get dragged into some extended debate i don't care at all about except insofar as the internet has just become a stupider, more polarized place in the last 20 years, but lets also not pretend that the source of those stats is specious at best given the incentives at playa totally innocuous picture of a gnome from WoW is getting counted as underaged pixels by the feds, who have a vested interest in keeping their conviction rate and the appearance of such as high as possibleanyway, i just came to laugh at you and scan the thread for morcant lists, cya nerds
>>97437331man I love that art, its so cute
>>97437331They're not children, Just like how goblins are not children.Like saying you're a pedo because you are dating a midget. You know this difference but yet are still using it to defend your pedophilia.
>>97437334>still can't say that japan is a country of pedoskekw concession acceptedanyways, i target the little girl with savage smash
>>97437342>Like saying you're a pedo because you are dating a midgetI would suspect something is wrong if you're attracted to midgets, yeah.

>>97437360>pedophiles use vt>this means pedophiles post illegal content to vtI mean, I'm sure they do, but you're deliberately misconstruing the point.The problem with you pedos is that you get so excited with this gaslighting shit because you feel you're getting away with something.You know you're admitting to being a pedophile and that no matter how much they may want to, no one can touch you.One day the feds will kick in your door and you will be held to account for your crimes, you won't be laughing then.

just discuss or at least attempt to gauge the power level of the pod you are in ffsit really is not that hardand play to win, don't be a faggotnot doing so sours it for you and everyone else if they find out

>TQBuilt him as mono-red clues.
>>97437427thats cool, I'm not interested in you boogeymanMy desire to win a social game is superseded by my desire to be entertained, otherwise I'd just build the top meta standard deck and go play in that format.
>>97437141>>97437166Kanna also was like, fully prepared to lesbian statutory rape an 8 year old classmate that made it obvious she was interested, and only didn't because they were interrupted.sometimes being a 7000 year old dragon matters.

>>97437584Haha I'm laughing at you rn! Keep coping and seething HAHA!
>>97437584Ooh, you really are seething. well, enjoy your wins, its all you can cling to.

>>97437571why doesn't he have the type treefolk TRUTH NUKE
>>97437603hey man, I said enjoy your wins, you don't need to keep projecting your rage.
I wish she was a legendary.
>>97437629Believe me i am, just like how I'm savoring my win over (You)
>>97437607You'sa busta
>>97437635Why do people say this is a bad card? I've played it long ago in a hyper optimized deck and it is a must answer card.
>>97437638oh that might be your best bait yet. But as I don't care about winning like you do, enjoy.
>>97437648You sure are sweating real hard to get the last word though bwahaha
>>97437654Didn't know you were that desperate to win these as well. Go ahead then.
>>97437643It's a bad card just like elvish piper is
>>97437661I'll take my win as always!
>>97437663Elvish piper is good because she is the spirit of the format, and is a certified bomb-dropper.
>>97437668Rhystic Study is the spirit of the format
>>97437673rhystic study was merely adopted into the format
>>97437673I totally disagree. It's not a bombastic card, and it only is so good because it scales well with a multiplayer format. It's a card where if something was made like it recently it would either be banned or instantly groaned and derided by the community.
>>97437643>5c>no haste>has to connectIt's a very slow card. You have to have 5 colors on board, a Sol Ring is useless to you unless you have something like Cascading Cataracts or something. There's going to be a whole rotation when it comes down before it can swing so it's essentially a 5c do-nothing until next turn. And you have to connect to get the trigger which is just an extra hoop to jump through, any flying blockers and it's another wasted turn.Even if it was legendary this card could only have been good like 15 years ago. I mean compare it to Kaalia of the Vast. Okay she doesn't let you cast spells, but she costs 4 mana in 3 colors, puts any one of 3 very powerful creature types onto the board for free, and they enter attacking meaning funnily enough if Kaalia was 5 colors Maelstrom Archangel would actually be worth playing with her lol.
>>97437643>>97437687Oh yeah and Kaalia is on attack not contact
>>97437685Blame sheldon for having rhystic as his pet card and banning an actual bombastic card like primetime instead>primetime will be a GC btw
>>97437692cope
>>97437692>>primetime will be a GC btwtwo more weeks
>>97437695Tick tock
>>97437687I get all that, but that still doesn't make it a bad flavorful card. It very well could have haste in a multitude of ways. If you have a five color deck with a good manabase, it could very well be a good card. I don't think because it's a niche card that can be good in some decks makes it an overall bad card. Props to anyone who plays it and throws down something huge with it. Only the faggiest of opponents would complain.
>>97437696>Prime Time a GC>Rofellos a GC>Sylvan a GCGreen Chads... we are going to be eating good again!
>>97437698>flavorfulThe moment youre talking about flavor in relation to a card being good or bad you have accepted that functionally it is bad.>If you have a five color deck with a good manabase, it could very well be a good cardPitch me the line. Because the way I see it:>Kaalia>t1 basic, sol ring, arcane signet>t2 other basic, KaaliaWhat’s the line with Maelstrom as a commander?>t1 Cascading Cataracts, sol ring, arcane signet>t2 basic, Rampant Growth/Cultivate/etc>t3 tap it all and filter through CC, MaelstromThat’s the fastest way that immediately comes to mind and it requires more specific cardsAnd even then, like I already said you still have to connect which just sucks. Any flying blockers, you get nothing. Any fog effects, you get nothing. As printed, in the 99 theres probably better cards you can be running if you’re in 5c. For it to be any good in any deck I think it would have to have a commander that let you play it for free, gave it haste, and sac it at end of combat or something. The game is just too fast these days
What if Nekusar.... was Nekosar..... and he was a catgirl maid.... and the serving tray was wheel of fortune.... and in the background magis of the wheel and fate unraveller were serving cards to popular commanders?
>>97437736best i can do is a funeral parlor director
>>97437736Reality Fracture
>>97437741What if Bolas... was a top?
>>97437774>what if…straight bolas?The thought alone is terrifying
>>97437736Go prompting.
>>97433590>TQBuilt Lyse Hext after initially having her as a discounter for Noyan-Dar, Roil Shaper before making her the Commander instead. Was also finally able to draft my FF box I’d had since release and, between that and the Lorwyn pre-release, burned a lot of my card-crack luck for the next decade. Am considering building either a Gilgamesh, Golbez, Giott or Boros Edgar to make use of my full-art foil Buster Sword but not sure which of those four would be the most fun
>>97437701>Rofellos a GCGiven he’s an RL card I do doubt they’d do this but I’m also holding onto a fool’s hope for him.
I have an awful feeling turts is going to introduce a commander I've been day dreaming about existing but it's going to be something with the most atrocious art ever like black April+Michaelangelo.
>>97437845what have you been hoping for, mechanically.
>>97437846Rakdos enchantress
jenovachads we're eatin' good with turts
>>97437845wasn't she literally black in the comics and she's only white in the OG cartoon because old cartoons were racist and sexist as hell
>>97437856
>>97437858>wasn't she literally black in the comics no>old cartoons were racist and sexist as helland you are a gay faggot
>>97437864you know what yeah, I think I am a gay faggot. come here so we can have sweaty gay sex
>>97437846A Sultai 'Clones Matter' deck. I love the idea of clones but unless someone is playing a self contained bomb like a titan cloning is generally weak because you're playing someone else's deck minus the synergy. A BGU commander that had something like 'legendary rules don't apply to cloned creatures' and/or 'creatures you control benefit from opponents tribal synergies (like say if the other player was playing gobs and had a Shared Animosity out it would work for my clones, or like a tribe matters board like return all non-sea creature cards to their owners hands would miss my creatures too)'. Hell, I'd just be happy with something like creatures you control that have the same name as another creature get a +1/+0 for each named creature. Just something to make clones feel more focused and viable.Given their slow but steady introduction of cloning cards recently I'm certain a true clone commander is coming sooner rather than later but I just know it's going to be part of the cringiest UB imaginable.
Ukkima Syndrome BUGEnchantmentWhenever an unblockable creature you control deals combat damage to a player, create a token that's a copy of it.
>>97437887I've dabbled with an Orvar the all form deck a few times, trying to make him an exponential growth swarm that makes clones of himself. but without going heavy into game changers, its really slow.
>>97437859>>97437846My answer would be viable tribal hate. Theres so many cards that say creatures of a certain type get shit on. I want a commander that has the effect of Leyline of Transformation except it makes all my opponents creatures gain an extra creature type, then I can play all the niche cards that usually fucking suck because they were made for draft where the possible tribes are incredibly restricted
>>97437908Yeah I've tried everything from Orvar to Volrath. It's just too unfocused and doesn't reward cloning. Like I said I don't care if its slop or jank, I just want to be able to clone creatures and have my commander be the wincon for doing so.
I'd like to see a commander that's just hardcore "STOP THAT">Opponent's creatures are untouchableStop that. Strip all defensive keywords>Opponent drew a ton of cardsStop that. Discard your hand>Opponent casts too many spellsStop that. Next spell gets exiledIt doesn't inherently shuts down play, it just seethes that others are getting too cocky
What do we think of this card in commander?I'm building mono-white angels/lifegain so I feel like this would be a solid use of a removal slot?
>>97437940its an o-ring effect so it may become a lightning rod for removal so people can grab back the card you exiled, so unless you got counterspells or enchantment protection, it might be riskier than normal.
>>97437938>every mechanic, card, and effect under your opponents control and in their hand or exile or phased gains the phrase "only once per turn".
>>97437736But she's a klutz and keeps spilling hot tea on people (hence the damage)
>>97437938Shay cormac gets around indestructible and hexproof
>>97437930You can clone ETB wizards with Inalla, right?
How does this work?
>>97438029assuming you are at a 4 player table, you can give any player any other player's current life,not like a pool to dole out.
>>97438038Just thought that it was Biorythm on crack lol
Coming into commander after a very very long time away. PArdon the bait-esque question but I don't understand the point of bracket 4 and 5?1 - Irredeemable jank2 - Precons. Maybe some substitutions3 - Bracket 4 but with limited gamechangers and you can't end the game before turn 5(?)4 - Do whatever5 - Do whatever more($$??$$)Three seems overtly wide. I see lists that just durdle forever or have degeneracy in them that just straight win. Sat down for a few bracket three tables this week and the power gaps between decks at each table made my head spin.Is the right move to just make a B4 deck and then the strongest/most fun B3 decks you can (avoiding the gamechangers).
*cricket noise*
>>97438133Bracket 4 can be as or even more expensive than 5, it's about adherence to the CEDH meta.If you're building an actually competitive deck that's designed with the intent of winning against other meta decks, then it's bracket 5.If you're just playing Eldrazi tribal or whatever, but with every gamechanger and combo piece under the sun, then it's most likely bracket 4.
>>97438152it should have at least warped in for like, 3, or something.
>>97438173Warp - Pay half your life, discard your hand
sloppa
>>97438348Doom's booba
>>97438348>Doom Grixis and not EsperLame and predicable. Oh well.
>>97438348>all precons showing potential alt commanders except black panther preconWakandabros...
>>97438348>the 1st 4c commander precon since forever>its Universes Beyond>not even a Fantasy Universes Beyond>its CapeshitFuck this
>>97438166This shit's retarded. I have already heard someone with a Kinnan deck sharing 97/100 cards with any CEDH list you'll find for the fattie say to my face that it's not a CEDH list "because a CEDH deck would run Mox Opal and this one doesn't". While just turboing for Monolith with free counter spell protection.
>>97437938>Opponent is better than meStop that. I win the game instead.
ban bracket 4
Monocolored commander precons when?
>>97438679Granted>mono red precon will be krenko, the mob boss
>>97438679They don't do monocolor precons for commander as much because making 60+ unique cards in single color drastically reduces the pool of "in theme" cards they have to pull from that are actually from the latest set they want to push. With three color they only need at most 20 from each color and probably less than that.
>>97433590>tqI built a few but spoderman turned out to be fun.
>>97437325>Japan is nothing but a country of pedosBelieve it or not, not everyone in Japan likes loli.
>>97438348Hm, I don't really want any of these.
>>97438348>SelesnyaI can't wait for some black characters on mono white cards.
>>97438783Were you expecting the ambitious power-hungry self-reliant isolationist faction to be black? Do better.
>"let's play bracket 2s">tutors out a combo on turn 4>"this is a 2, there's no game changers in it"
>>97433590>We got 484 new commanders in 2025. Which one did you build?Mr. Worldwide! Dale.
>>97433590>TQWow. Really puts the "gen(eric)" in legendary.
Can't wait until the Mythic supertype distinguishes the super-duper special characters from the super special characters. Then we can have a format where you have 3 generals and 4 lieutenant slots and they're all shuffled into the rest of your deck to keep things fresh!
>>97437857i guess but its like a monkey paw situation where i get to play my favorite character from one of my favorite franchises but because i tolerated UB this one time, i will be forever cursed to run literal comic book slop in any decent rendition of my deck
>he brought out Bello to the table
Brago, King of Durdle
>>97438501Some people just want to build their waifu with every gamechanger they can jam and that's what b4 isSome people cant let go of the fact that prossh isnt cedh meta anymore and still play it with all the GCs and that's also b4Some people just want to build the best possible deck a commander can have even though it was never cedh material like demonlord belzenlok and that's b4A cedh deck can be downgraded so that it meets gavin's b4 criteria of "avg turn to kill the whole pod is turn 4" (hypothetically an LGS would host a b4 tourney with 'no infinites locks or game enders before turn 4') but such a format would be so similar to cedh in practice that no one bothers, that's why you only see b2/3/5 being hosted (b1 is by design too weird for any mass appeal and is for weirdos)
>>97438831Precons come with turn 3 combos btwThe key thing is whether a deck is "consistent enough" to do it
Mutagens seem pretty cool. Shame its in UB.I imagine there will be more support for it in future sets.
>>97439119Reminder that mutagen is a real scientific term not owned by viacom so yes expect the mechanic to be at least deciduous
"My opponent swings with Varina, Lich Queen while Teferi's Ageless Insight is on their field. Lets say she attacks with 4 other creatures and I copy her triggered ability with Return to Favor, do I copy the trigger with the replacement effect or without it? Aka do I draw 10 or 5?"
>>97439189Replacements happen on resolution and you do not control ageless insight so you do not get the extra. Think like this, if the replacement didn't happen on resolution, while Vareena's trigger is on the stack to removing Ageless Insight would have no effect, that would be silly.
>>97439221Fair enough, my confusion came from rules on modal or X spells that lock in but yeah you are right mate
>>97439119i will never stop being upset that this card can't force support for Jenova by turning things into mutants so that i could run it with some removal and artifact copy to limit the number of non-FF UB cards i have to include
>>97437696I’m ready.
>>97437576Come on anon. Look at him. He’s basically asking for it.
I want to make a suite of decks for each bracket. Every commander should give the impression that I like men. Maybe if you saw one you would suspend judgement, but seeing the entire suite of 5 would remove all doubt. Who are the 5 gayest commanders appropriate to the gayest combination of the 5 brackets?
>>974394031, original bolas2, kynaios and tiro3, flip bolas4, a niv mizzet5, ral I think can cedh
>>97439060Brago is not a durdleking, he is an evil piece of shit that can easily lock you out of the game by resetting rocks while you suffer under stax pieces and mana denial.
>>97433766good for her she ain't touching those dirty glimmers
>>97439045Ive noticed Bloomburrow commanders seem to be the most popular at my 2 LGS, buncha fur fags in my town I guess.
>>97439045>Deck that does nothing when you kill the commander
>>97438679Like 8 years ago if not more. They were all Pretty good OOB, especially Daretti
>>97439403Any UB commander
>>97438348>wanted more 4c commander options for years>it comes with the exact ability I've been begging for, for like 20+ years (voltron that hits everyone)>capeshitI'm so fucking mad. Even more mad than when Super State was revealed
>>97439638>group thug voltronI can't think of a less interesting way to play the game. You get what you deserve.
>>97439638imagine that you finally got what you wanted but you're still mad because wotc put it in a much better IP
>>97439675There are much MUCH lamer ways to play this game, anon, don't be retarded. There are decks out there that run 20+ tutors just for the sake of having this combo out by turn 3-4. That's the entire gameplan. That's what they do every single game, for years on end, literally nothing else.
>>97439726>the voltron player that does nothing but rely on their commander to win is calling out other decks for doing the same thing every single game
>>97439779Every single deck plays the exact same wincons every single game. You're a special kind of stupid for acting like this isn't the case
>>97439851>look at that filthy combo player isn't he lame in trying to be as consistent as he can?>look at my voltron deck though that i cast every single game, now that's kinolol
>>97437208>Look this guy up>Half his art on twatter is fat lolis
>>97439638>Want thing>But my morals formed out of severe autism won't allow me to. If only saint Chris-chan allowed the dimensional merge to happen so my card I made in my head could be real instead
>>97439942>official art for the fire emblem phone game>official art for pokemon>official art for several other small gachasoh now I found the fat loli
>>97437208not that I'm complaining but how the fuck did this get okayed
>>97438820i expect mtg to put villains in every color other than green though, because green can literally do no wrong except become dumb muscle
>>97440105it got okayed because it's actually ok to everyone normal, evidenced by FF being the best selling mtg set of all tiime
>>97440109Nissa was a villain.
I played 2.5 Commander games last night before and after Pauper.Game 1 I got a Burakos win. The Eldrazi player drew some early hate and apparently Burakos despite being a bracket 4 sweatlist was able to fly under the radar long enough to develop an Academy Manufactor. I didnt draw my big bang wincons but after developing like 22 artifact tokens, it was clearly my game to lose and I got there with Obsessive Pursuit and Marionette Apprentice.2nd game I played 4th Doctor / Sarah. I ended up scooping because I had to go play pauper, but Im 99% sure I had the win. I had Cyberdrive Awakener and I had lethal on 2 players. I could have turned the game into a 1v1 and more likely than not won from there, but I didnt want to do that since I was leaving for Pauper immediately.Last game was with Zurgo and I ended up losing to Valgavoth. I had a pretty decent start, not amazing but good. I got burned out because Val correctly targeted me with all the Blood Artist triggers of which there were many. I went 2-0 in Pauper and got a bye in my first round, so 3-0 overall technically
>>97433985Good Aristocrats commander, underrated. Super simple to build around Ashnod's Altar + Pitiless Plunderer infinite

>>97440540oh shitI just realised after all these years that even if my favorite IP would get a crossover in magic I wouldn't like nor buy it but if they made cwc UB I would actually turn to a pig that eats slopit would combine all the multiverses neatly and make sense of the crossovers in universe so the themes wouldn't clash anymore in my autism filled head
>>97440698>even if my favorite IP would get a crossover in magic I wouldn't like nor buy itSame
>>97440775God, how would they even do Mistborn? It'd have to be some Kenrith bullshit with 5+ abilities
>>97439986Hating ub isn't autistic, it's morally and objectively right.
>>97440781I don't see any way of doing it on a single creature. Maybe a mistborn and misting creature type, and modal instant/sorceries that let you choose all modes if you control a mistborn??
>>97440789Classic poopdickschizo post.
>>97440798You outed yourself as a pedophile and seriously think anyone is going to side with you on UB lmao
>>97440804ok poopdickschizo
>>97438133Bracket 1: doesn't existBracket 2: real edh and magic as Garfield intended. Bracket 3: sweatlord bracket. Soulless tryhards who can't fathom making decks without design mistake crutch cards. Combofags who NEED to win at all costs and can't do so without relying on the most brain dead lines. Tutorfaggotry, durdlefaggotry, cheaterfaggotry abounds. Indistinguishable from bracket 4 except everyone is either too stupid for high power magic or pretending to be stupid so their decks aren't as turbo efficient or well played.Bracket 4: cedh for cowards. Doesn't actually exist, is just cedh with the occasional non-netdeck build.Bracket 5: cedh with only netdecks.
>>97440822generally speaking this is an apt definition of brackets yes
>>97440822>Bracket 2: real edh and magic as Garfield intendedThis is only true if you aren't running a precon. Not building your own deck is some very gay shit.
>>97440851precons are at the very least bracket 1, because some of them have 2 card infinites that bracket 2 doesn't allow (like gitrog dakmor in the world shaper precon)
>>97440822unfortunately bracket 1 does exist because the people at your LGS who say they have bracket 2 decks can't actually win until turn 12 even without getting interacted with.

>>97440990maybe (You) should've bought real UW cards so that wotc didn't have to go UB in the first place>oh yeah that's right UW is unsellable garbage
>>97440995>it's okay to yuck your yum when I do it!
>>97440990>Respond that fallout didn't meet my expectations>REEE WHY ARE YOU SUPPORTING THE RUINING OF THE GAME!That is certainly a read you could make from that. One of the dumber ones, but sure. Anyway.MTG is series of game mechanics, what the art is from is really not as important as you might think.I'd be far more concerned with them printing more and more bullshit pushed cards like Hexing Squelcher than the fact that there is a Black April on a card.
>>97440995UW is bad but there is no reason to make it worse with UB.
>>97441006yucking your yum when it doesn't sell is morally and objectively right.

>>97440990>ruinedYeah sorry, UWcucks lost all right to complain after Aetherdrift. Your world and setting are worthless garbage, and the mechanical shell of Magic as a game is put to better use with IPs people actually care about.

>>97441205>UB should exclusively be precons and not legal in any 60 card formatUB shouldn't even be legal in Commander. They should be forced to ask to rule 0 them in like the fucking MLP decks.

>>97441067Goblin Warlock, moar liek Goblin' my cock XD
>>974409901) UB is not "ruining" the game unc.2) Because then you troons would be crying about "muh proxies".3) I like foils and hologram stamps.4) Official UB often has new art and it's nice to see new official art of your favorite franchises.
>>97441067There is so much good art to choose from for tribal goblins and you chose to use AI?
>>97441126>poopdickschizo is STILL seething literal days after losing an internet argument
>>97441383I actually made 6 because I couldn't settle on just one, same thing with grub.
>>97441419>>97440967lightning warrior isn't overpowered since it doesn't have a familiar
>>97433590>TQBuilt Golbez, Crystal Collector and Captain Howler. Some of the most fun commanders Ive built and played with. I love draining the board for 13 when I get back Death's Shadow with Golbez, and taking out someone in 1 attack with Howler was more satisfying than most voltron commanders I've tried
>>97441229Nah. Some precons are way more pushed than others. The Jund -1/-1 counter deck took way more time jerking off with its counters than building a threatening board. Compare that to the Elemental deck that just overwhelmed you with value thr moment Ashling enters. Last year you had the EoE decks where everyone clowned on the land space ship deck for being boring, but ended up being the most insane land commander thryve printed in a long time. FF had stinkers like Yshtola that didnt make sense out of the box and the energy deck in Aetherdrift that was miserable to play
yshtola's deck is cute
I like Y'Shtola but I can't think of any way to build it that isn't free spell tribal

>>97441441who the fuck asked?piss off you degen retard
If you were a true goblin lover you would pay gigawix/huffslove to draw art for your deck
>>97438348NOOOOO THOSE ARE INCORRECT SCRIMBLOS
>>97440931I already got mine. And I got it before they began being faggy and making them standard setsSucks to suck
>>97441628Let us know how that goes and how much it costs.
>>97441679I say this and look like this
>>97441141Black Panther was already a card and I see a few decks of him at my LGS every week
>>97441628>only draws things that are child sized and are hyper sexualized.pedos get the rope

I was also thinking about Bre of Clan Stoutarm

>>97440931DOOM set when?
>>97441339It's because he's innately superior and leans on that superiority, which is 100% green's deal
Bought the Revenant Recon Precon and trying to make a FFXIV flavored reanimation deck featuring Emet-Selch. Trying to keep this bracket 3 max, don't want to run tutors/stax. My main concern is I'm using worse cards when there's better out there for not much more. Main goal is turns 1-2 I set-up cards that start filtering my hand and sending to GY, turn 3 I slap down my commander since he's not really a threat so shouldn't be sniped, and turn 4 and after I start planning on flipping my commander in a big turn while reanimating value cards to keep the game under my control.https://moxfield.com/decks/9suuTp-7vkKo1RrXR5ctMQI want to keep this deck creature heavy since I think that's more fun and interactive for my friends.
im nigger fatigued im troon fatiguedim ub fatiguedim fatigued by the constant anti-white racist propaganda im proxy fatigued im aIslop fatiguedim "post your irl decks" fatigued im "MAPs are heckin' valid" fatiguedthis general is just so fucking exhausting
>>97441997Why not... Just leave then? Are you that desperate for (you)s?
>>97441997Then leave dumb-dumb.>>97442009Do lorcana cards even have value? I'm amused at the idea that you cut up a 10+ dollar card to make this, though for all I know its just a common.
>>97441997Bye.See you tomorrow
>>97442026yes but this one was taken free from an LGS, the guy said "its worth less than a magic common go ahead"
>>97441141Were getting the precons shared already? Black Panther being white green again is weird. Doubt they'd reprint the Secret Lair version so he'd just be the same guy in the same color combination.
>>97441997I'm /pol/tard fatigued
>>97442009Attempt #2, still not as clean as I'd like
>>97442133You need to use an exactoknife and a steady hand
>>97442142>Steady handsJust need a ruler to keep the line straight
>>97442142I had a nice lil X-Acto knife I can't find (it's been decades, who knows where it went) this one was a big heavy chungus>steady handcan't get one of those
Why isn't Kraven a ranger imo
>>97441198>>97441155>>97442070??? Guys? Wtf are you talking about>won't be popularIt's black panther>why would they do GW againSo it will work with the old cards. Has to include GW and give him a 3rd color? Black and blue don't work and they just gave red to the diversity hire spiderman. >are they going to put the other one in the deck???No retards, they're going to put it in a bonus sheet or reprint it in a secret lair >monarch isn't popular Yes it is, and it is on theme for we wuz kangs Hate UB all you want but that thing is going to do crazy wellas crazy as possible to be fair cause it'll cost 70 bucks with no sample pack at the height of marvel fatigue
>>97442152>can't get one of thoseHold your breath when cutting
>>97442152>>97442146Also, hard to tell from the picture, but maybe you need a way to flatten the card without ruining the card below it.
>>97442163Anon they're just mad the character is black and are projecting their racism onto others. Very simple.
>>97442168but its green/white
Use a ruler and stack the cards on top of each other while cutting and go deep
>>97442163>It's black pantherAnd? Most of the people high on the character are only from the movies and, honestly, likely don't play magic all that much to begin with.Not to mention most of the playerbase who is black, aren't interested in being in being pandered to, they just want good cards.>Monarch is actually popularcitation needed
>>97442184>Not to mention most of the playerbase who is black, aren't interested in being in being pandered to, they just want good cards.Citation Needed
>>97442163I mean, they probably could have made him bant maybe? Lets them add Shuri too if they wanted. And a bunch of tech stuff.
>>97442184>>Monarch is actually popular>citation neededNTA but any time I've seen Monarch introduced to a game people's general response is a sincere "cool". I think the mechanic is more popular than not.
Whitoid are no.1 consumers of black dick tho.
Here's an attempt where I simply cut the magic card and glued it to the lorcana card.I guess I don't need the scholar of the ages name on it, I'll just move the casting cost
>>97442206Please stop trying to bypass filters
>>97442209I need to ask why you are doing this
>>97442209Looking good
>>97442221I think it's fun.
>>97442221As an observer I find these to be nicer than AI slop booba proxies.
>>97442209Can you feel the bump when shuffling?Is this even allowed at lgs?
>>97442209NIGGA BUY A RULER AND SOME SCISSORS PLEASE STOP USING A BUTTER KNIFE TO CUT UP LORCANA CARDS
New thread doko?
>>97439082It's a matter of having tutors typically
>>97442209Good use for the Lorcana cards. Though you'd need to do some more work to make sure this doesn't make weird bumps in the sleeve. If it does it would fuck with shuffling and stand out obviously.
>>97442229I don't have a problem with it, it just seems weird as a thing to suddenly want to do specifically with lorcana.
>>97442133The first flavor text was perfect for Anna.
>>97442229you are free to have an opinion as wrong as it is
>>97438831bracket 2 means precon to me. If it ain't a precon then it is bracket 3
>>97442249That just means you're wrong tho, read the article
>>97442254Why would you spend hundreds to make a deck weaker than a 30 dollar precon?
>>97442260>why would you spend hundredsYou wouldn't. You'd spend 10s of dollars to make a deck on the same level as that 30 dollar precon.
>>97442265No, no you wouldn't.
>>97442249>you know this designation that means X? yeah well it actually means Y to me and has no relation to X Incredible levels of intelligence on display
Lorcana cards are treated with something that makes them very resistant to acrylic paint.>>97442230>>97442240it's my commander for a pauper commander deck so I don't care about shuffling>>97442245nice
>>97442269Yes. If I had a bunch of friends who only had precons because they were just getting into the game, I would throw together a jank deck worth less than 40 dollars. Because you don't have an self-control don't mean other people don't or the brackets are wrong.
>>97442237>It's simply a matter of having *the good* tutors and running *the good combos*
>>97442274You're probably going to have to scrap/sand the areas you want to paint.
This might be one of the coolest artworks they've ever made.
>>97442229"Nicer" is relative.Seeing anyone still making their own alters/proxies of any kind is better than just having the same meltdowns about UB and every honey soulless slop "discussion" every fucking thread.
>>97442274>it's my commander for a pauper commanderOh then you're fine. Doesn't matter if it stands up or shuffles weird if that's the case. Good use for those cards then.
>>97442278>I would throw together a jank deck worth less than 40 dollars.in truth you'd just buy the world shaper precon and beat your friends, because that precon honestly just beats up so many "bracket 2" decks made by casuals out there for far less money even if you take out the gitrog dakmor infinite
>>97442318Feel free to keep projecting your own lack of self-control onto me, but no, I would not.
>>97442323>buying what wotc is selling as a precon means you lack self-controlum ok lol
>>97442331>Because I would feel the need to buy the most powerful precon made in the past 5 years just to pubstomp my friends, means YOU would.I get it, you're a retard who can't look inward, I've known since first post, you can stop proving it with every following post.
>>97442163>he thinks black panther (who?) is popular
>>97442309>size
>>97442336if your friends are new they'd also be buying the latest precons, it's not like you're taking advantage of somebody running heavenly infernobut sure if you feel like a martyr go play the growing threat precon or something
>>97442349Is prototype the only time they use size as short hand for power and toughness?
>>97442283Bad tutors for 3 card infinites still don't belong in bracket 2
>>97442339/tv/ has massive PTSD from the movie being successful, even 8 years later
I might build a merfolk deck now seeing this guys effect, what viable merfolk commanders are there besides Hakbal?
>>97442365Think they'd get over it after the second was objectively shit.
I want five pyrohemia activations every turn
>>97442363>Bad tutors for 3 card infinites still don't belong in bracket 2i get what you mean but gavin already made a concession by banning 2card infinites in bracket 2 outright, people simply didn't like his first proposal of only 3 nonland tutors for b2 so there's no going back to that
>>97442369talrandbros???
>>97442369Orvar? He was my first thought when I saw Namor.

>>97442458Tempt with mayhem cant target itself anon
>>97442468yes it can
>>97441141Only Doom Prevails looks like it even remotely fit MTG. Maybe Wakanda Forever too, but that is a big, fat maybe.
Here's the routine "removal/interaction is BAD" post but I'm seriously getting burnt out of this format >play with personal friends and not randoms>play sessions are still horrendous slogs >every turn there's removal, counters, field wipes >can't build a board or even play anything because its just going to be wiped out>decide some games to just sit there and not play anything>friends get mad at me "If you're not gonna play just scoop">the second I play something "ERM SWORDS TO PLOWSHARES ERM" >"you're forcing them to use their removal" when half the deck is nothing but removal >they also get mad at me when I play shit like my Magda or Will decks where I win in a single turn >unless i make a deck that has Removal, interaction, massive card draw, protection and multiple win cons I'm just dead in water
>>97441141So will the face commanders in these get alternative arts like they did in Final Fantasy? The Fantastic Four ones look like shit.
>>97442510>half the deck is nothing but removalThis sounds like it's more a problem with your group rather than the format. The fuck happened for them to fill every slot they have in their deck with removal and wipes?
>>97439306Ehh best to make it a role token if it's going to change creature types
I need yalls opinion on my friends house rules so I know whether I'm just a retard or if the insane people are running the asylum>friend group of usually 6 players>in order to not have 6 player free for all they do this team system>2 people are Commanders and they have 2 lieutenants so its a 3v3>Commanders can't be attacked until both lieutenants are dead but they can lose life by their own card effects>both lieutenants need to reach 20 life before either can be killed>supposed to be so you can't just gang up on one person>I think this is fucking retarded because it basically makes commander damage a non factor and people usually gang up on a single lieutenant anyway to get them to 20 >3 people taking their turn at once makes cards like Amphibian Downpour, any storm card, Gluntch and cards that prevent casting on your turn like Voice of Victory ridiculously strong >even though its technically a 3v3 it's actually a 3v1 in most situations because you can possibly have 3 players against you with removal or counters >go to play at random card shop>games feel less high power and fairer even though its randoms It's basically made my gf who primarily plays Yugioh not want to play magic anymore because she's basically a sperg that's openly called it fucking retarded to their faces
>>97442561It's fucking retarded. Absolutely stupid as fuck. If you have a six person group just make two games of 3 player and call it there. Anything more than four players is unmanageable.
>>97442561>3 people taking their turn at onceYeah, I stopped reading here, that's just retarded. Just break into 2 pods of 3 and roll 3 highest play together, 3 lowest play together.I also play a pod that his 6+ regular players and that's what we do, some times you are waiting for a pod to finish to roll again, but that's less awful than all of that fuckery.
>>97442561the insane people are running the asylum, as casuals often reduce into whenever they pull any retarded rule zero shit
>>97442569>>97442575>>97442619Thank you for reaffirming I an indeed not a retard. Unfortunately I've tried to talk them into the 3v3 thing but they refused.I'm basically trapped unless I play some retarded group hug deck or a cheese deck
>>97442561>Commanders can't be attacked until both lieutenants are deadSo basically if both lieutenants die, the Commander either scoops or it turns into a 3v1 unless they have an insane play to kill 3 people at once. Insanely retarded
>>97442561>>in order to not have 6 player free for all they do this team systemStopped reading there, it's retarded
>>97442561edh games with more than 4 players are some of my most miserable experiences with edh because you will wait forever until it's your turn againthere is no real solution to this than to split up the groups. I would choose duel or 3p edh any time over 6p.
