>>97870259>Critter
>>97870259Oops! I think you meant to post this in a custom card thread. This is a thread for the format of Commander, silly!
>>97870259Nigga, just create a token curse enchantment with the ability of Chain of Mephistole written in the card.
>>97870290No
>>97870290as much as he doesn't need to be defended, that would be more than twice as much text as is already on the card.
>guy casts fractured identity my commander>copy it and cast it on his commander >gets saltyWhy are people like this
I think I have utility land brainworms because I'm coming around on even some of the niche MDFC's.
any mtg related accessory you got lately? got pic related from a private seller after my current binder is full. seems like the product line was super unpopular because this version became unobtainium after a little over a year in my region.
All right, who is responsible for sneaking in burly "nonbinary" dudes? Sami from EoE was also "nonbinary".
>>97870492This looks like AI sloppa
>>97870505you're just jelly because Kirol hit the gyms in strixhaven while you got nothing to show. how often where you in the gym between lorwyn release and today?
>>97870508it got a "weird" look because it's actually a blender render which then got painted over in photoshop.
>>97870511I can't give myself 2 +1/+1 counters!!
>>97870505Get it? History buff?
So are we just not going to get an Orzhov legend that cares about targetting? What the fuck?>Uncommon Bird Legend that cares more about creatures than targetting>Weird ass exile theft legend>Silverquill whos more based in Aristocrat bullshitWheres my fucking Repartee/Heroic Legend WotC?
>>97869927I'm never going to forgive the retards at wotc for making a perfect card of my wife, with even an alternate card of herself that can go in the 99, designing an interesting new card type (Saga Creatures) - and then giving her all of 12 cards to play with while anyone that wants to build her has to sit there for minimum 2+ years just to get 10-20 more saga creatures that she can actually use.I wholly support AI taking Gavin and co's jobs.
>>97870259Why would you ever want fear on a creature with deathtouch and first strike? I WANT people to try and block it.
>>97870470>Play pillowfort cards>Noooo! You're not letting me play the game>Same guy next game.>I pass on turn on turn 1 and discard this toxrill>Now I reanimate this toxrill, hope you have removal in hand TEE HEEA disturbing amount of people in this community have the mindset "its okay when I do it."
>>97870680Sometimes my opponents will play lands and then tap those lands to play spells.Really pisses me off every time
>>97870649They printed that last time they did strixhaven.
New Tifa-tech is here, Tifa chads. We are eating good.
>>97870702A ramp spell is hardly "new tech" you retard.
>>97870505Maybe drag queen Gavin has something to do with it- or one of the several other troons in the senior WotC team.
>>97870707This puts Tifa at 16 power by itself with no other buffs.
>>97870702This card is worse than Explosive Vegetation in like 85% of decks.
>>97870717Its still just a ramp spell. Scapeshift is really good too for tifa! Sshhhh! Don't tell anyone its a SECRET.Fucking retard.
>>97870505He's a history buff now? In Lorwyn he was a botanist...
why do these dragons look so friggen gay?
>>97870505Sami wasn't burly, he just wore a sleeveless top.>>97870702>eating goodFor some reason redditors love this phrase, and I don't know why. Was it popularised by some e-celeb?
>>97870751Sami is a nonbinary they/them ftm troon.
>>97870702You posted this a couple threads ago you autistic retard.
>>97870751>Was it popularised by some e-celeb?Applebees, you tard
>>97870746That one in partilcular looks gay because it was made by wayne reynolds
>>97870757It's my first time seeing and posting that card a few minutes ago actually.
>>97870765Uh huh yeah
>>97870765Yeah, just like how you don't post the same shitty images every thread and twat out about UW every threadFucking retard..
>>97870702what bracket is tifa anyways? she seems fun but I assumed she's just auto 4 and no one will play with you.
>>97870779You're just a schizo. I don't do any of those things.
>>97870717A 1HKO if you play a land that turn too. Another nice little cheap potential 1 card kill for the green queen. >>97870757>everyone is the same anon! don't talk about the game or new cards you can only cry about swordfag/squirrelfag/pedos/troons in the edh thread!
>>978707832 or 3 depending how you build it.
>>97870783What kind of retarded removal averse tables do you play at dude? Auto 4 my ass you better hope you survive being the archenemy.
>>97870783Tifa is an interaction check. She causes butthurt with people who don't actually play protection and hold up mana between turns. In a vacuum, she's high bracket 2.
>>97870783>4She's a bracket 2>Waste all her gas to kill someone early>Die immediately to everyone else at the table.>Go on to declare she's the "green queen" for your 1999th "3rd place"She's a timmy retard card, and if you try and play her at 4 you're just going to do nothing because they will have removal for your dumbass.>>97870789Samefagging is shameful. Pro-tip: Change how you type.
>>97870783>>97870791Some times the Green Queen gets focused and killed over and over again and there's nothing you can do about it. Live by Tifa, die by Tifa. Such is life.
>>97870800>Samefagging is shamefulAgreed, that's why you shouldn't do it poopdickschizo, perpetually online detective dipshit>>97870771 >>97870779
>>97870800You're a schizo, and also have an abnormal aversion towards Tifa Lockhart- another sign of mental illness. Tifa is the #165 most popular commander. There are several Tifa chads who frequent this thread.
>>97870803Are you transexual by chance? You talk like one.
>>97870808She is also one of the few female characters WotC has printed in the last 5 years with large boobs and normal female traits.
>>97870760Ah, so it's just a burgerism.
>>97870809I talk like Ned Kelly, faggot.
>>97870808Notice how the "other person" isn't calling me a schizo.Opps. Fucking retard.>Popularity of EDHrec means she's good!BAHAHAHAHAHAAHAOmega fucking retard.
>>97870820You're a schizo, little bro. This is what happens when you don't take your meds every day.
>>97870809Considering the only reason why she's "good" to him is because he wants to goon to her, safe assumption.
>>97870789>don't talk about the game or new cards you can only cry about swordfag/squirrelfag/pedos/troonsNobody mentioned any of these guys.
>>97870820>>Popularity of EDHrec means she's good!It doesn't mean she's good, but it means there's a high chance that several anons in this thread have Tifa decks. Why do you hate hot waifus with big tiddies so much? It's bizarre.
>>97870834Troons hate hot women with big boobs, because it reminds them how they will never be women and never will pass. The AntiTifa faction are unironically exhibiting troon behavior here.
>>97870702nice, new deck-thinning tech for my ruby
>>97870835Not yet but we all know you will PDS, because you're a tiresome schizo who pissbabies about the same shit every single thread with multiple same fags. You already have 3 different anons laughing at you atm and we're not even at 60 posts yet. Are you really so fucking delusional to think that dozens of anons calling out your retardation across dozens of threads now means that YOU aren't the annoying faggot?>>97870812Plus it's an actually fun mono-commander too that isn't just do thing draw card value slop.
>>97870841No one is actually "anti-tifa" here. They're anti-(you), fucking retard.Your persecution complex betrays you troon.
>>97870836>but it means there's a high chance that several anons in this thread have Tifa decks.Yeah, but the ones that do probably aren't busting a nut going "NeW sEcrEt tEcH" every time a good ramp spell is printed.
>>97870848Meds now, bro. It'll help you feel better.
>>97870847>You already have 3 different anons laughing at you atmDoes projecting this hard hurt? Come on, say "poopdickschizo" already, or the FFX Inspiring Call. I know you want to.
>>97870855This nutcase has been completely mindraped by Tifachads and his irrational hatred of a magic card. Schizophrenia is a helluva mental illness.
>>97870859You're 36 dude.
>>97870875I'm 25.
Stop bickering and post YOUR Queens
>>97870883No you are not. You keep posting the same shit every thread to the point where people have caught on who you are. It's boring. You're lame.
>>97870895Meds now.
>>97870672It's something that looks very scary at a glance. A lot of players are terrible at assessing threat after all.
>>97870470>I ramp>I ramp>I ramp>I play big bombI commandeer your card>NOOOOOOOOO
https://scryfall.com/search?q=set%3Asos+is%3Acommander&unique=cards&as=grid&order=name>24 valid commanders, plus the 10 precon face commanders and the 2 legendary creatures among those preconsis.. is this really it? ngl kind of a disappointing number compared to the variety of buildable decks in recent UB sets.
>>97870916No anon. This is an acceptable amount of legendaries in a set. FF, was understandable because it was so many games. Spiderman, Turtles, and soon marvel are just bloated bullshit.
>>97870894
>>97870955She seems fun
>>97870492I was gonna make a playmat with art I like that's not on any products, but no one replied :( >>97869701
>>97870812Dina's in the latest set
I bought this one from FPGIYXK (that's the brand on amazon, 4chan won't let me post a direct link) Quality is very nice, and not that expensive. With shipping only like 5 dollars more than what a licensed MTG mat costs.Its comes from China though, and with all the bullshit going on with tariffs and what not in America shipping was looong, but worth a shot maybe.
>>97870702Surely this card wont be problematic
>>97871016Meant for>>97870979Im not sure I could have fucked up that post more if I tried.
>>97871048
>>97871048Why though?Not much of her is shown.
>>97870209Delivery, boss.I even made it so you can print it on a t-shirt. If you're in that gayboy's gay discord, feel free to tell him he has permission to use it on merch if he has the balls.
>>97871103
>>97871103Did you at all consider the moral implications of creating this?
>>97871103>>97870209 Oops, here's the transparent version that'll print on shirts. Forgot I left the white background on there.>>97871110It's like that saying goes: think about whether you could, and then do, right?
>>97870666I think you're being unreasonable here Satan, Selesnya Yuna is one of the most powerful cards in the FF set with a massive amount of ways to build her, yeah this one sucks but being able to pull literally any enchantment out of your grave once a turn AND give enchantment creatures (not just saga creatures) Ward 2+Trample+Lifelink on your turn is a fantastic design. Plenty of other FF fans got completely screwed. Yuffie, Rikku, Lulu are basically unplayable, Quistis is alright in the 99 but doesn't work as a commander at all, Garnet and Rinoa are laughably bad. I'd take your win because for such a low powered set it could have been a hell of a lot worse.
>>97871103>>97871116the ONE time we get oc in this godforsaken place and it's this shit
>>97871134I think it's blessed. Love is love after all

>>97871238Let's talk about proxies and UB instead
Guys hear me out:>make an in universe set>all the "normal" art is by JP guest artists (aka the opposite of the usual "use JP artists for the special alts" treatment)>the women aren't ugly>the dudes aren't gay>no xir/xem characters>have lots of desirable reprints like ancient tomb, the moxes (chrome, opal, etc), shocks, fetches
>>97871280Haha yeah cos that’s it we can either argue about the game/game pieces or post AI fat women right? That’s the two choices haha right?Legitimately fucking kill yourself
>>97871103Unfathomably based
>>97871103...Okay that one's kind of funny.
>>97871287You need to lighten the fuck up
>>97871280What about UB proxies?
>>97871304You need to stop spamming threads with your AI fetish
>>97871103>>97871116There is no better, more appropriate time to use this almost-decade old reaction image than this.
>>97871284somehow I feel like anons would still have a problem with it
>>97871304Asking PDS to not be an unlikeable cunt for at least one thread is like asking Gavin to make a new set without a single vehicle card crammed into it.
>>97871326I respect the theming, but Zangan looks a bit tacky with concept art on an in-game background, but I also imagine you aren't getting TCG or gacha game art for him.
>>97871152kek do you remember when WoTC was "Celebrated by the Community" for being "Brave" enough to print chubby goldberry. I wonder if we'll ever get this. Or if ozemic stole this from us!
>>97871353That was literally the best Zangan art available. I was actually surprised by how little there was for him. Doesn't really matter since I've never drawn him once ;~;
>>97871327I don't need to stop anything, because that wasn't me, you're just a fag.

>Tfw you get into a 15 minute argument at the lgs with some retard because the stack doesn't work like Yugioh and there's prio after each resolution.
>>97870845I've been liking low mana cost commanders lately. How is she?
>>97871416I had to do have that kind of argument several times when playing my horde of notions deck because I always like to check what I draw with mulldrifter before committing a blink spell to it.
>>97871439>How is a mana dork in the command zone in red and greenCome on anon.
>>97870894Didn't think much of her at first but after playing her for so long I've really grown to love Ivora.
>>97869701Try Amazon. They've got a couple of custom game mat sellers that will take whatever image you give them and make a mat out of it. Even have options for stitches edges. I've got a couple and they've been pretty good so far.
>>97870894kittytittykittytittykitty
>>97871326I really like that Bristly Bill.
>>97871450Yeah fair enough. I guess I just meant if there was anything else to her or is she mostly just an enabler for a "secret commander" like Xenagos.
>>97871466She's so much fun.>spam all the "bad" counterspells and removal to ping people>use ophidian eye, curiosity, and helm of the ghast to get unlimited draw>use grafted exoskeleton, phyresis, and glistening oil to murder everyone >combo people out with exquisite/sanguine, mindcrank/blood chief, etc
>>97871016that looks really good! i'm not an amerifren, though I wanna visit minnesota, but i appreciate the concern. i'll check them out!
>>97871416Haven't had that argument before. Yet. I have had a few where people didn't get that sacrificing as a cost means you have to sacrifice while you're casting and paying the mana value. I've seen more than a few players cast something like Costly Plunder but try to sacrifice a token made by a Monastery Mentor trigger to pay the cost.
>>97871103That was unnecessary.
>>97871326Extremely based. You love to see it.

>>97871589>not double dipping on your GCsngmi
>>97871586>He plays popular commandersLmfao at your life loser
>>97871439>>97871474I'm playing a meme battlecruiser style deck inspired by that snail youtuber. it's about stacking the deck with ~20x 4cmc ramp and then filling the rest with endless high cost value stuff (cascade, discovery, removal engine creatures etc) while running zero cards below 4cmc so you don't cascade into shitty low value spells.in general, I believe arixmethes is the most versatile ramp commander in the command zone for various reasons, so if you want to build one, I would recommend him over ruby.
>>97871466I feel like a complete moron whenever I see this card.I can't tell why it's so popular.
>>97871682Cute girl.Draw engine in the command zone.Thats it.
>>97871682>catgirl>anime>boobs
>>97871682She's both good and cute. What more can you ask for?
>>97871682AGP transsexuals love Final Fantasy, especially FF14, one of their prime grooming hotspots. Citation:>>97871689>>97871691
>>97871689>>97871691>>97871695I guess we are low on playable cute girl commanders...
>this cute anime girl sends the local schizo into a seething rage
>>97871682Card is goodFF14 is the most popular FF
>>97871698Transsexuals hate hot girls because they're a constant reminder that they will never pass or be a woman. That's why they seppuku at a 41% rate. The more hot girls they see, the closer they get to offing themselves. That's why WotC doesn't put hot girls in their art unless a UB license owner forces them to.
>>97871717Extremely mentally ill post
>>97871717No, anon. They love anime girls because "she's just like meme."You can't even get your nonsense straight.
>>97871717Pretty much. Look how quickly the local false flagging trannies got triggered by you.
>>97871707I wish we got these anime arts more often. They're surprisingly good.
>>97871732Some are goodSome suck
>where I go, whatever I do.>I must make things about trannies.
>>97871745Now you're rocking the PDS mindset!
>>97871682See >>97871486. You can get her drawing a gorillion cards per turn, all while she murders everyone with toxic counters or instant kill combos. What makes her extra disgusting is that she hits everyone with toxic or her infinites, instead of one opponent at a time. She also self triggers the exquisite and sanguine combo by casting them.
>>97871736I really like the ones from Ravnica remastered. Some of the Foundations ones are really good too. It's kind of frustrating how I'm reminded that we can get good art but WoTC gives out awful instructions for a lot of the art.
>>97871682cute anime cat girl with do anything = kill players and draw cards generic commander designHas nothing to do with FF fans because yshtola is one of the biggest jobbers in the entire franchise and was a noncharacter for the first 8 years of its existence
>>97871689>>97871691>>97871710the only real man reason to play a commander is when the legend>is bad>isn't anime>doesn't (do thing) draw cardthough
>>97871591>tfw desperately wish she only made RG because I can't make myself play a 5c commander
>>97871768My edgy wife.
>>97871785just build her as an rg commander then?
>>97871095Bruh, glad not to be the only one with this thought.>>97870242Quandrix getting some good. Reminds me of Deathsprout. Bouncing stuff is fun.
>>97871776No one cares
>>97871724You will never be a woman. >>97871725Cute girls make troons secretly seethe.>>97871731Exactly. I struck a nerve in the discord troons who patrol here.
>>97871790It helps that they didn't just give us cute girls.I absolutely love this Utvara Hellkite art, the Hellkite Tyrant is pretty good too.Kind of hope we get another remastered set this year, hopefully with the nice alt arts. Even if it's not anime, just some new art direction would be nice.
>>97871790How do you build her anyway? I assume you want shit like deluge and other board wipes to murder everything.
>>97871792I lack the restraint.
Do you think that playing high power/bracket decks actually increases the odds of winning at the average table?From what I've seen the closer you approach cEDH the more likely people are to focus on you, which leads to the unassuming average deck winning on sheer merrit of being inconspicuous.I generally feel being the quiet guy helps a lot.
>>97871770I guarantee you half the people that use her have only seen her art
>>97871839Sounds like my regular pod.>Player A is known to have strong decks and good piloting>Player B is known to have strong decks and piloting>Player C and D just watch A and B slug it out and try not to over extend for when a board wipe hits until we can combo off or win.
>>97871865I played FF14 when it was in its original beta and got scrapped for being total ass. Does that count?
>>97870894Best girl
>>97871724Uh oh PDS melty
>>97871839dependsI have a regular at my LGS that whales on cards. He can't sequence his triggers and plays, has poor threat evaluation, and plays strong decks but extremely poorly.I can trust him to always overextend and either win because his cards are better or lose because he has poor game sense.There is another that has well constructed decks that aren't flashy, but know how to pilot them and when to use his removal and protection. His decks are the "weaker" of the two but he knows when to use what instead of tapping out every turn.A slow player never plays slow and wins out of nowhere, if they play slow but have mana and cards, it's because they are holding things. You have to make them spend it or you lose when you spend everything tackling the first player.
>>97871691Excuse me, I dropped my colossus hammer I use on your magnum dong.
>>97871874Canon prostitute
>>97871904Yiff in hell, tourist.
>>97871913September really never ends does it?
I feel like I'm going a bit crazy trying to come up with fun deck ideas. I play a variety of bracket 2-4 games, mostly somewhat optimized 2s.If i go for aggressive decks they become linear and samey. If I go for value engines they have trigger bloat and take forever to resolve. Same thing with storm or spellslinger decks. I've had mono G Goreclaw decks even have this problem. If I go for stax or control people will become salty. It feels like no matter what I try someone will take issue with a deck play style.
>>97871913Meanwhile >>97871103
>>97871921(Me) Maybe i should just start making gimmick decks and hope for novelty
>>97871192you are yes
>>97871921>It feels like no matter what I try someone will take issue with a deck play style.This is correct. Play what you wish.
>>97870894Only the best, in her most beautiful art.
How do you feel about "you're never getting that shit" special versions of cards? And I don't mean the numbered ones, I mean completely unique art that's impossible to get. Pic related is a good example.

>>97871944Chinamens, and/or Proxies, the jap demonic tutor is even more out of reach now, so I will settle for the counterfeit one.Though, I do shell out for certain cards if I really really want one for my collection.
>>97871944It doesn't really bother me; that JP promo Delney is cool and the Miku snapcaster looked pretty sick, but it's rare that there isn't another cool treatment. Delney is kinda a lost cause, but I got the Chocobo bundle snapcaster and it's very neat.
>>97871992Here's your commander anon :)
>>97871992You’re choosing the colors with the worst draw, just know that.>inb4 some redtard says impulse draw is goodIt isn’t. GW has some draw but only from green and only if you’re doing tradition green things of either enchantments or creatures
>>97872033this is a bad card though
>>97872071yeah
>>97872033>>97872071>>97872074It is funny to think of building a sacrifice deck and Aang being a general for you as a planeswalkers sacrificing dozens of people just so he can learn to get stronger from their deathsUB was a flavor mistake, we can all admit it
>>97871998This does seem vaguely interesting, don't know how I've never heard of this card before>look it up>originally a UB cardThat explains it.>>97872033This sucks but an aristocrats payoff in WG is unique at least.>>97872037I know, all my decks draw fistfuls of cards and I am trying to branch out and try something different.
>>97872074Do you retardedly believe off beat or unpopular commander=bad?
>>97872086>if you build an archetype in colors that don't support it using a jumpstart uncommon, you can break the loreMan you're going to hate to see what people are doing with UW cards.
>>97871992Might I interest you in Selesnya aristocrats
>>97872115>old legendary that is not utter trashshocking
>>97871735>teetering on the brinkCan you do Darkest Dungeon next? Just narrator quotes though
>>97872121They even made her better once she got a creature type
>They let us almost touch the sun
>>97872161Fuck my face
>>97872109He literally gets stronger when creatures you control die. How is that breaking the fucking lore? They’re referencing the genocide of the air nomads, but mechanically it means youre going to shit out creatures intending for them to die to power up Aang. That is the card they printed.
>>97870242>TQSpeccing is for faggots, but anything with a decent Prepared spell is something I want to get, the desparked Lili, and as many of the mystical archive I can because they are all super hot fucking fire.>>97870894

>>97872257That's just sad.

>>97872275are we discussing Elk or that time Mitch tried to make fun of people and killed his own career in the process?
>>97872257and that's a GOOD thing?
>>97872321No, severe obsession like that damaging to ones mental health. It is what it is however.

>finally get new reprieve art>It's another noggerAt least the weeb art is good
>>97872162Worst part is they are entirely aware of what they're doing

>>97872548What is bad about the art specifically?>der is a black pursonOk, but what about the art itself is bad?
>>97872550Even worse

Recently gotten into magic and have started to play somewhat frequently with friends. I'm kind of the type to really obsess over something new I like so I'd like to play it even more, the problem is the normal 60 card formats just haven't really gotten my attention.So wondering do if y'all play commander online or is it just best in person/with a friendgroup? If there's an online commander community what do you use for playing the game and searching for players?
>>97872675commander really doesn't work online.
>>97872675I play in person and it's really the only way
>>97872574Chang is gonna be printing money from their proxies.
>>97872675With how much prio needs to be passed in a correct way, it is nearly impossible to play commander online.A single turn 1 could end up take 30 minutes if people are just roping or not paying attention.
>>97872641This is so bad its good core. Post the clip art edit
>>97872675A friend group is optimal. You could play at an LGS but those players are usually suboptimal and tend to run very tryhard decks. Online is the worst way unless you get extremely lucky, and the best place to find groups would be a discord (if you plan on being racist) or reddit (if you don't). Good luck friend.
>play a smothering tithe>guy in pod resolves a windfall>that will make me 21 treasures are you sure you want to do that>yeah>casts final fortune after the windfall>kills himself because he can't find the win>untap with 21 treasures>now that he's killed himself I can kill the other two players???
>>97872574Japs can't even color their scribbles and weebs still slurp up the slop just because it has moon runes on it. Wild. Poorly drawn hand holding a photo of a sleeping woman, attached to a noodle arm. Genuinely really bad art on this one.
>>97872741>I want out of this game, so lets make it """funny"""" for everyone else.
>>97872741Hey, maybe he legitimately thought he had a path to victory!
Any recommendations for a solid reliable midrange commander for bracket 3? Preferably not combo but I don't mind having combo in it. I'm just looking to avoid linear and repetitive games. Preferably blue included.
>>97872741sounds like a Giga Chad
>>97872162>can't include his own pet in a deck he commamdssad
Post technically good art
>>97872789You can't convince me this wasn't AI.
>>97872789Is this going to be the next transit mage that is going to be spammed in ass rage
>>97872819Yes. And that's a good thing
>>97872789How many fat, middle-aged black women have you ever seen playing MTG? Zero for me, and I've been playing since 1996.

Strixhaven looks like the most annoying fucking school imaginable.>annoying freakshit races everywhere all trying to larp as European humans>student body is a bunch of 25-50 year olds larping like they're 12-16 year olds>everyone is a special snowflake mincing around casting lame looking spells I wish the Phyrexians or Eldrazi would show up and torch the fucking place.
>>97872866all in universe shit sucks
>>97872866it's one thing to be a hat set for something in the public domain, it's another when strixhaven is trying to be harry potter and not being subtle about it either
>>97872866I think the phyrexians already tried to torch the plane but norn got poked by elspeth before they could finish the job or something.
>>97872279Yeh whoever that guy was. does he still youtube?
>>97872893Well they should've released it as a block and had the story of the second one being a bunch of based students/ones who've had enough of Strixhaven's gay community college nonsense freeing Elesh/Emrakul and summoning them to the plane to fucking massacre everyone in the school. And then never make a third one or any other strixhaven set ever again.
>my only LGS is closing down>next nearest one is 2 hours awayWell shit. Is spelltable good for pickup games or should I go elsewhere?

>>97872968Sorry for talking about wanting to play the Elder Dragon Highlander format of Magic: The Gathering in the thread about the Elder Dragon Highlander format of Magic: The Gathering
>>97872978>Science bad and fakeWe know you think this retard
I noticed this thread gets extra shit during sets that aren't UB.
>>97872981
>>97872981We know you think that basic biology is transphobic, and that men can become women and women can have dicks, retard. You ignore and dismiss basic science every day.
>>97872987That's your bias. People were this bad leading up to turtles too
>>97872987I doubt Marvel will be good.
>>97872996Nah. The shitposting was more about turtles rather than /pol/ shit. When there's a set people HATE instead of being "meh" on the shitposters cry about that instead of going on about trannies and shit.
>>97873003Basic biology = "pol shit"
>>97873003What are you talking about. Turtles had a black April and people threw as much of a melty about it.
scene is when the mono green player thinks his forests are safe in bracket 3
>>97872987It's better when the UB is good
>>97872813Nothing AI about it just classic low effort photobash/trace slop.
It's not even interesting at this point. It's just boring.

>>97873015VARY GOOD SAAR PLEASE GENERATE ONE WITH BOBS AND VAGENE NEXT SAAR
>>97873028You're beginning to understand
>>97873100I think 5 times in a single thread is enough.
>>97873015Why did they actually print all these mass land destruction cards? How was it ever fun having all your mana blown up
>>97873107I will post it again until you join my fucking circle jerk!
I've been making a Bob's Burgers proxy deck for a friend recently using sloppai.And there's a couple of things I've realized about image generation while making """art""" for this deck.1) The AI has no clue what to do with Gene2) It struggles with Louise3) Linda is usually pretty good.4) It really likes Bob. 5) For some reason, it really, REALLY likes Tina.Either way, food support in naya is so strong that the deck list practically writes itself. I think my buddy's gonna have fun with this.
>>97873113It wasn't, magic also was over all much slower back then. The green player also didn't have 19 lands by turn 4 back then.
>>97873113the 90s and 2000s were a different time
>>97873113>Why did they actually print all these mass land destruction cards?A lot of it was the makers not realizing how important mana generation really was to the game.Land destruction was common for the same reason you saw the moxes get made.
>>97873123>The green player also didn't have 19 lands by turn 4 back thenthat's an exaggerationi need turn 5 and a god draw to have literally all my lands in play untapped
>>978731385 turns to get everyone of your 40+ lands out is absurd.If wizards gave a shit about balance with the GC list, have of it should be greens broken ramp cards.
>>97873113If you want a real answer, back then you would be expected to have 4 of each relevant mox, sol rings, etc if you really needed mana but most of the good spells cost like 5 at most. Remember that this is the era were a 10/10 cost 10 mana and it required you to sacrifice 2 islands to untap it and 2 islands to attack with it. One of the best creatures of early magic was Juzam Djinn and that was just a 5/5 for 4 with a self-damage downside compared to what we get today which is like 1 mana 2/1 and 4 paragraphs of busted shit written on it. Oh and 3 keywords, too.
>>97873113Early magic designers had absolutely no idea what the fuck they were doing. Go to scryfall and check any old set and you'll see 200 useless cards like this one then suddenly spot one of the strongest staples in the entire game casually mixed in with all the chaff.
>>97873154This. Some of my favorite early Magic cards are in Arabian Nights, The Dark, and Legends and 90% of those cards are either utter dogshit or some extremely niche amazing card no one would question seeing every single day. They made some cards so good back then they are impossible to power creep through natural means.
>>97873163Get rid of the RL and let us have these decent cards again.
>>97873154How on earth did this game ever make it to 2026 astonishes me, what the hell is this
>>97873180Look at the beta version of it. It was Red and said "target player loses next turn" and the people playtesting it all said that the game was fun except that they hated that card that instantly won the game. Garfield had to ask "what" and they realized it was mis-explained
>>97873180Biggest reasons are that it was the first of its kind, it's immediate successors failed to learn from MTG's early mistakes, the implementation of rotation so that said mistakes weren't contaminating later releases, and arguably the most important part of all, Magic has the most thorough support of multiplayer formats. I cannot emphasize enough how much that last one has affected player retention.
>>97873180Talking and extra turn for two back then was basically "put another land into play and hit your opponent for 4 with 3 creatures while you played a 6 mana 3/3"It wasn't until the game moved up on power over all that the power nine went for decent cards go flat out broken.
>>97873214>then was basically "put another land into play and hit your opponent for 4 with 3 creatures while you played a 6 mana 3/3"Don't undersell it. Even back then, it was "Draw a a card and untap all your permanents", which even at the time was a lot stronger that WotC realized.
>>97873220Its was good back then, but I was trying to impress the idea that you can't really look at the old cards through the lens of magic today. Even with an extra turn, you still could do far less than today, and they weren't nearly as broken then as we see them now.
>>97873227I mean even looking at it unpowered and I assume they didn't have card restrictions back then, so couldn't you just run like +10 of these and auto win the game by like turn 4-5 if you felt like being an asshole that day?
>>97873113Designers knew each of the colors should hate their enemies but didn't really get how to implement it in any flavorful or mechanically interesting way yet. Land destruction was a lot more common then so a pretty reasonable route for designers tasked with creating hate cards was to make one sided MLD cards to beat that color and call it a day.
>>97873239In the original first year of magic they didn't have the 4 of rule. They added that the following year. While, yes, one could have had a single creature a few lands and nothing but time walks in their deck, I don't think it was that likely. Garfield has even said he never though a limit was needed because he didn't think people would own cards for such strats.How to best play back then wasn't nearly as refined now as then either, and there wasn't the internet back then to talk to other people to figure out how to play optimally.
>>97872789
>>97873344You know that point where you keep doing something so long ironically, that it becomes unironic?You're close.
>>97872963Sounds like heaven.
can you please help me create an anime version of Jin Sakai, Ghost of Tsushima but with pic related Stocking Anarchy instead ? AI wont let me for some reason, thank you /edhg/
>>97873100MY QUEEN
>>97873358Are you looking for the exact pose for Jin Sakai?
Is there something here or am I tripping?
>>97873372just use that Stocking pic as the card, Jin sakai text , Stocking Anarchy as the card name and in the smol text under Jin Sakai, Ghost of Tsushima just like this example.
>>97873358neat choice
>>97872926>There are no based chuds in strixhavenUnfortunately he died
>>97873385
>>97873113its a balanced mechanic to keep your opponent from running away from the game if they had too many lands and you didn't hit your drops. this was 1994 when black lotus and the original mox were legal so blowing up 3 forests doesnt matter as much when you've got a sol ring and a mox emerald and a birds of paradise on the boardalso im guessing people were slightly less of big pussies than now where if you interact with their gameplay at all they have a mental breakdown
>>97873352It's pleasant. If you ever get the chance to leave America, go in to the country side.
How much of a faggot does it make me if I play offcolor fetchese.g. picrel in a golgari deck

>>97871103>>97871116I think you need to add snail into this somehow.
how long do i have to play this game to be a good deckbuilder? i only like building decks and mine are all shit
>>97873358Take it as a hint instead of a challenge
>>97873427why wouldnt you just put in an extra swamp
>>97873538>>97873531Both of these look like shit and you'd easily improve it with using an image extender so that her face isn't being blotted out by the name.No I'm not going to do it for you
>Won a game because three bracket four decks couldn't find a single removal spell for 6 turnsHonestly my favorite card in the game at this point. Just leave me alone.
Partner commanders are generally ultra aids but I love these lil niggas
>>97873358Other people beat me to the punch, but here's my attempt
>>97873574nice , try this now anon >>97873556
>>97873144BINGO. this is what I've been saying for the last 2 weeks. First they limited tutors (like demonic tutor, enlightened tutor, mystical tutor) but really never meant that to include the most basic tutors of all: "search your library for a basic land and put it into play tapped", which is literally thousands of green cards, and almost exclusively green cards (only white gets anything like it for catching up, and red's very few have some fuckery involved to keep them all on the battlefield). almost all the nerf's of various brackets, "game changers" and all that, harm all colors except green by sizable portion. even something like Dockside extortionist which, yeah a wild card was one of the best ways for red or Grixis or Izzet to really get some incredible ramp. that gets banned but theres nothing tampering down all the one-sided green ramp. so especially in lower brackets almost everyone has a splash of green just for this. then not being able to answer with either more powerful cards in other colors that help ramp (like smothering tithe for white, demonic tutor to find sol ring t2) ends up really dulling the "global meta" for more casual games. then tack on you're not even supposed to do the built-in mechanic since 1994 (acid rain is from legends) of blowing up those forests yet theres no other land tutor/ramping that is really very useful except for white's handful of cards, like Land Tax. Lander tokens could have been much more useful. in bracket 4 or higher this is not a thing, and people play green much less but if you are wanting a more "mellow" style in b2 or b3 you almost have to choose a green-splashed commander to keep up because the geniuses in the "commander committee" have done their best job at propping up green as the beginner friendly color. now the latest set has a double Harrow yet...nothing for the other colors even a "power crept" Solemn simulacrum for this decade. example 9000 of them being completely tone deaf.
>>97873566kys
>>97873560They have little relation to each other.
>>97873578White and green have the least usage rate in cEDH THO.
>>97873590reading the post explains the post
>>97873144Land ramp is too hard to police I think. It's easy to say "grim monolith is OP" but green land ramp is an entire package of cards, not just 1. Pretty much any green deck an run 10-15 land ramp cards and make sure that they'll have absurd mana quickly, while also thinning their deck to leave nothing but gas.
>>97873591Your post is too long
>>97873556I can get this done maybe next thread I'm tired
>>97873576
>>97873593I didn't tell you to read it but yeah that guys right, reading the post would help. no need to shit out a comment if you can't readI usually play bracket 4 but powering down with a different non-green deck into b2 or b3 is just generally "not fun" for these reasons.
>>97870979I got mine done at jankmats.Took like two weeks and ran me $20~ with my own design. Stitched up well enough and has a bit of sheen to it. Mine was a teal and bright colors mat though so can't speak to quality of darker tones. Ran ti through the wash on gentle and cold and the colors still kept.
>>97873578>in b2 or b3 you almost have to choose a green-splashed commander to keep upYeah because every moron keeps trying to build their mono u/r/b, Boros, Dimir, Orzhov, Rakdos, Azorious, Izzet, and Grixis decks like diet Simic decks that can grind out real Simic decks on value. Timmy's Dr. Eggman deck will never be Tatyova and he will keep losing because he's trying to play it like one instead of leaning into how powerful his control tools and removal are.
>>97873592Yeah, I get they can't do all of them, but this new green card should be a GC. Scapeshift should be a GC.Azula and Icetill should be GCs, maybe some other play lands out of graveyard cards too
>>97873648I'd agree with Crucible of Worlds at most and even then it still doesn't deserve it lmao
>>97873607>>97873574wotc would make a killing if they made secret lairs from these.
Nature's Lore and Three Visits as GC, ez
>>97873638I dunno my main non b4 deck is Orzov and I precisely don't have land ramp issues because of land tax and Squall being able to bring back lands with his abiltiy. plenty of swords to plowshares, reprieve, dark steel mutation, sheoldred's edict and night whisper in that deck red and blue have some good options (Narset's Reveral, Twincast and pic related) for being able to create copies of Cultivate, Rampant Growth, etc but I never see people do it
>>97873685haha yeah this but for real. honestly add that and a few other things and it would probably really balance out how many green decks are in the lower brackets
>>97873580No. Your standards are low and you deserve to be called out for the degenerate low standard garbage that you are
>>97873607>>97873574>>97873665Ok who would be Scanty and Kneesocks. Chuck and Fastener ... what about geek boy
This card would be amazing for my Tayam, Luminous Enigma deck, but I'm worried people will think I'm weird for running a card with bathing underage girlsAnything that might work better?
>>97873701It bothers me that this card also would look really good for my Tidus deck. Danny Pink energy. I could recommend Innkeeper's Talent if you're just looking for enchantments that give out +1/+1 counters.
>>97873705>Danny Pink energy>look it up>broken card>random black guy from dr whoYet another card denied to my +1/+1 counter deck.
>>97873701This is perfect for my underage girls deck, any more suggestions?
>>97873729>mfw my theme is save from the planes of new york and londonjust good 'ol fantasy for me. thank you.

>>97873705>look really goodYou're damn right they do. gen Toph and Katara.
>>97873699Mechanically unique "Partner - Bitches" Commanders with Blue-Eyes White Uncle as the bonus card.
>>97872852Never seen an person who looks like an eldrazi or sliver play mtg. I guess no such cards are allowed to be made according to your retarded logic
>>97873761>blacks are the equivalent of eldraziYeah, they do kinda indiscriminately destroy wherever they go, try to rewrite time and history, and then plant their seeds everywhere. What an apt comparison!
>>97873767Glad that we agree. No new eldrazi cards ever.
>>97872789is that the real art? god that is so fucking ugly.
>>97873775Now, aside from the joke, that's a very stupid concept and comparison. JotC does not make black people cards constantly because it's just what they want to do, it's about their dedication to "diversity" and "representation". Now, it isn't hard to connect that to the very blatant media pandering in various places that explain representation now is "more important than ever" for getting people into hobbies, shows, movies, etc. No one thinks literal eldritch horrors are playing this game (except tranners) and because they're fictional you just look stupid.
>>97873751sure why not>>97873638>he's trying to play it like one instead of leaning into how powerful his control tools and removal areYou know, i had never really considered that thought before. The idea of playing a deck in the wrong colors as greedily as a deck in green/simic. That really does hit people a lot, doesn't it?

wait, I can just start posting shit nobody likes and then tell the haters to leave because this is what the community is now? genius!
What's a UB card you want printed UW? Something you love the design of but can't get past it being the cancer killing the game?
>>97874303all the double faced ones since I can't proxy those on a slip of paper properly without it getting crumbled up when flipping constantly so I'd buy those

>>97873638Building/playing decks without green like diet simicElaborate on this, I wanna make sure I'm not doing it by accident
Got salty last time I played because we got genuinely pubstomped (turn 1 tutor into turn 2 combo, didn't disrupt it because I know the guy gets really bitchy and didn't want him being a wet blanket all night) and then when I managed to have a good game at the end of the night that same guy got really bitchy (imagine my shock).It was like having an epiphany. Games are less fun, games are getting so fast I basically can't play stupid stuff any more, even when I do play stupid stuff I have to purposefully misplay to protect other people's feelings. The have sucks now. The aesthetic is trash with MMIW2SLGBTQIA+ characters in wheelchairs with xey/xem pronouns on every plane. So many cards are obvious whale bait, which in turn only makes games even faster and even less satisfying. It sucks. It all sucks now. It's sucked for a while but I had my one pod and we had our decks that were only okay and things were good enough. They aren't good enough any more.
My table cracked up laughing>kefka player has chimil and twinning staff out due to dream harvest>casts expropriate and copies it>has 8 extra turns>game is over >tell the other 2 to believe, I have 1 mana open>cast pic rel
>>97874556Managing your pod's emotions... the white player's burden...
>>97874589Using ellipses..... the faggot's conversational choice....
>>97874556>The aesthetic is trash with MMIW2SLGBTQIA+ characters in wheelchairs with xey/xem pronouns on every planeleftoid """art""" truly is a nightmare to behold. the absolute lack of any soul is what gets me. like looking at the work of a demon trying to pose as human.
>>97873113Magic has always been a game with really good rules and really bad design.
>>97874671>Really good rulesHow would you even define that? Pretty much the only thing it did right was the concept of mana but even there it bungled execution with lands where for all the cope you can spout about them adding their own layer of depth, introduces so much frustration no other game made after 2000 sought to emulate them.
>>97874678Things like the stack and priority, the idea of interaction, the concept of color design, etc. They had a lot of good ideas, even though it took a few years to refine them in some cases, but their actual implementation was really really bad. Which is understandable, given that it was basically the first major tcg, but they never once rebooted it or let it die and made a new game with better card design so we're now stuck with a bloated tcg that's 20+ years out of date because too many nerds are sunk cost into this game and refuse to let something new with better card design rise up. (To say nothing of investards who actually treat this game like it's their 401 and live in fear of the secondary market crashing)
>>97874678Lands are one of the best parts of the game and it's why there's literally 1 competitor in the TCGspace and that game is utterly fucking plagued by t1 kills and needing 16 paragraphs of instant speed hand abilities to stop t1 kills. Lands are a great limiter in a lot of chaos outside of Magic's highest tiers of play.
>>97874634It's completely soulless. People complain about UB being fantasy New York, but the in-universe sets are just fantasy San Francisco.
>>97874709Lands are the single worst part of the game.
>>97874556im just wondering what gay retards have to do with missing indigenous women (and what IS a woman, anyway?)but you have to not play badly to appease those types. seriously its not worth it to be like that. and its female type behavior. people need to take the "salt" for what it is and be an adult. also I must be the only person on planet earth who's bracket 4 games don't end until at least turn 8, with usually the first player losing on turn 6 or 7 at the very earliest. I won the last game of the night last night at turn 11 which is a longer game but not unusual.
>>97874753and just think where magic would be without lands. The idea for lands of different magic to them is what inspired Richard Garfield to make the game in the first placeI think they need to stop gate keeping land ramping so hard to let other colors actually play shit in a timely manner because land is often the biggest hiccup in play and the least fun part of deck building. and I love picking out my favorite art islands and swamps and mountains but more than 1/3 of the deck being lands does suck
>>97874799They already don't and haven't for a while. It's just that green gets the best land ramp and EDH players are greedy as shit so they won't pay the premium to get it in other colors.
>>97874799They can't create a proper fix for mana cost because the design team also has to sit there designing intentionally bad cards so packs can be stuff with commons/uncommons to feed paypiggies gambling dopamines. Don't forget Magic isn't primarily a card game, it's a casino game disguised as a card game. It's always going to be hard to balance a game when the main goal if it is to get retards opening lootboxes.
>>97874568that is hilarious and I actually just bought that card last night. but I already have Stranglehold which also stops extra turns + library searching (mainly have it to hurt green land ramp. played against some randoms the other day and the winning player had this extremely annoying recursion of the extra turn card from that Chinese portal set. added in leyline of the void right after that as well, ha
>>97874709I unironically started to play magic because of the lands. They always intrigued me. Even today, I spend a large amount of time choosing the perfect looking lands for my decks.
>>97873972Cute!>>97871000Dina has boobs?
>>97874762the average cedh game goes to turn 6 despite the average goldfishing win turn for cedh decks being t2-3. games only end really early if nobody has interaction.
>>97874805pay the premium for what? the fastest way to get a green-style ramp is Wayfarer's Bauble and its really not fast enough compared to a typical green land tutor + ramp. Solemn Simulacrum used to be ok but 4 mana is just too much for that effect now. Walking Atlas I've considered adding in quite a bit but the summoning sickness really ruins it for me, and the fact that unless someone plays a Wheel, the only time you're likely to end up with multiple extra lands in hand is the start of the game. Surveyor's Scope is one I'd like to try that I haven't yet but really it's more akin to Land Tax than green ramp in my opinion but if it works it seems like it would work REALLY well.
Does the quality of foil depend on card rarity?I feel like I don't have much trouble with rare/mythic foils, but common/uncommon foils seem to be trying to fold themselves in halfAlso foils should be like 10x rarer IMO, trying to find a non-foil version of a card should not be a problem that happens
>>97874762If I stopped it he'd be a whiny bitch all night. I'm annoyed that he was a whiny bitch for a single game. Things are bad but they could have been worse.
>>97873972That's adorable, where can I get this?

>>97875123>Arnyn: Gender Neutral contemporary spelling of Erin and Aaron.Artist drew them as a woman though, they can not draw tits all they want but how they drew the hips and face cant hide their bias.
>>97875141Look at the hands anon. That's a dude. Also, he has no hips. What are you talking about?
>>97875141Clearly that's a hot piece of vampire they/thussy.
>>97875161>look at them handsSausage fingers is just something Anna does. >No hipsThey're standing at an angle, but how the thighs taper off of them is how a woman's hips would look from that angle.

>>97871249the spic-nig cycle hath been completed
>>97871359she's cute glute not obese offense. There's a difference and it's not only skin color
>>97872033this card is kinda sinister considering those kids were genocided
>>97872390this one's ok because it's about the white man's burden>it is our responsibility, as white people, to reach out with compassion to those who are suffering from retardedness (niggers)I completely agree, though oftentimes compassion means whipping into shape, for their own sake, those who can't help themselves, not giving them unlimited KFC and free roam to loot and murder
>>97873560Honestly, it's just a matter of learning basic deck construction and then modifying that to meet your goals. Learn learning how to identify your wincon and then obtain/defend it while disrupting your opponents is all about proportion and getting statistics to favor you.If playing really teaches you anything, it introduces you to new card interactions and gives you a general sense of how to identify cost efficiency. But it's kinda like watching a car drive, you won't understand why it's fast unless you actually look under the hood.TL;DRPlaying teaches you what makes a card good.But it won't teach you what makes a deck good.
>>97873699Scanty & Kneesocks would unironically be Tymna & Kraum
>>97871931Consider using art search on scryfall.That's a solid way to build a deck theme.
>>97873560The way to get good at deck building is realizing that all the unfun shit you don’t want to put in your deck actually does need to go in there.Soi-people like Command Zone will call it some gay shit like “eating your veggies” but that’s an understatement. The single best thing you can be doing for your decks is cramming them with ramp and draw, and that means seeing the same couple dozen cards in every fucking deck.Theres only so many good rituals, mana rocks, and draw spells and if you want your decks to be good you have to cut shit you find thematic and evocative to make way for the same cards you run in every deck that shares a color
>>97873560>>97875779The redpill is that EDHRec.dek is better than anything you will brew yourself.
>>97875801This but cut all doublers, all spells that are 6+ mana, all spells that are the same cmc as your commander, and replace all of it with cheap draw spells, interaction, and land mdfcs.
>>97876021>land mdfcsBasedAll the untapped ones are basically auto include in mono and dual-colored decks, even some tri-colored.Some of the tapped ones are very good too.
>>97876021This but unironically
>>97875801Net decking is for queers
>>97870242Is it appropriate to boardwipe when you're just behind everyone but no way to capitalize on it?
>>97876340In a competitive pod yeah absolutely. I'm a casual pod probably not, just let the game end and play another round.Unironically, winning isn't everything.
>Whenever one or more creatures you control deal combat damage to a playerThese effects only activate once, but it's once for each player you deal combat damage to correct?
>>97876368Correct. The condition is dealing damage to a player. Unless it says "only once per turn", you get x3 if you hit everyone.
>>97876368Yes. Also can trigger twice per player you're attacking if you have something with double strike
I feel like I build really good decks but I'm an awful pilot
and I thought some of the precons were stupid resilient. paradigm might be the worst value slop design in a long timeit just feels everything now either recurs itself or has at least a 3for1 built in
>>97874556It makes me unironically happy that the game is ruined for you
>>97876340>no way to capitalize on it?Buying yourself time is capitalizing on it.
>>97876588same
Good deck construction and piloting loses to a retard with a staple pile every time if the retard has free interaction in hand.
>>97876657>he always has it
>>97876658Always assume your opponent has it.
>>97876657WotC removed it from the GC list so that must mean it's a fair and balanced card right? :^)
>>97876657>>97876700>force of will>force of negation>fierce guardianship>deflecting swat >deadly rollickName a more insufferable set of cards.
>>97876733>>97876733>>97876733>>97876733
>>97876340Depends on the kind of board wipe."Destroy all creatures" or "Destroy all artifacts and enchantments" are a dime a dozen that gets printed nearly every single set. You can and should expect some of that in pretty much every format short of pauper. That's just a fair way to punish people for over extending or putting all their eggs in one basket. When you start getting to the "Flip the fucking table" levels of board wipe like Planar Cleanse or Farewell and you don't have a way to end, then your friends are going to start wondering what the fucking point of still playing is, or why they're even still friends with you.
>>97874753>no argument except "WAAAHHH"Play Yugioh, then. Enjoy your t0 wins or 6 hand abilities that freely counter your t0 win and turn into a t1 win for the other player. That's the state of that game right now.There are multitudes of examples of how fucking ridiculous the state of a game with no cost becomes, because this is just one of dozens of cards that punish being able to summon an entire board (5 monsters) instantly. the entire game has shifted into being unable to let one player keep up with another without being able to activate multiple effects that come from the hand. It's why trap cards are currently dead because you don't have the time to wait until someone else does something after it's placed.
>>97877207>Hurr durr only resources systems are "lands" or "none"EDH player demonstrates profound mental retardation as usual.
