I might make this dude a commander red black is perfect for ramping with dark ritual and seething song (seething like you will be on the other side of this card)

What are your thoughts on the deck?
How can I improve it?

I have in mind buying Cabal Coffers, Cabal Stronghold, Dread Presence, Ad nauseam, Bolas's Citadel, Bloodthirsty Conqueror, Bloodletter of Aclazotz, Ayara First of the Locthwain, Blood Tribute... but they're expensive af, so I'll be buying one of them every 4 months hopefully.

In the meanwhile...

No you were just too stupid to read it yourself. As though you had haste and has haste ARE functionally the same in every way except for the only one the matters.

That she doesn't trigger on your opponents creatures dealing damage, she triggers on her creatures being dealt damage. It might be less that the card lies though, and more than the judge who made the ruling is retarded. Nonetheless, right now the card does not work as is written on the card, so it's a lie. I guess you can throw all the Companions cards in that lot aswell.

Just went through a long, drawn out game where being able to use this to tutor up a Final Showdown saved me. Still had to pay the 5 mana on top, but it was well worth it to wipe the field at instant speed. But, even that trick still had me in a really tough spot.

I was using Forged Anew to alleviate the equip cost of Sunforger, but I actually ran out of instants because I otherwise had been mana-flooded the entire game, and I was up against some insane value engines. Ended up in a situation where I was down to just 5 life and my last opponent was at 50 and had a full field and could kill me the moment he untapped, and all I had left was Forged Anew and Sunforger.

I drew into Godo though. Cast him, tutored up Helm of the Host, used Forged Anew to equip it for free, and threw infinite Godos at him. It was a cheap and dirty way to win, and I actually spent several moments wondering if there was anything else I could tutor up with Godo to get me out of that situation, before just giving in and delivering the kill.

The "enchant your opponents stuff" gimmick is a trap, you just want to keep your impetuses (impeti?) out to get your card draw for the turn cycle and buff your own guys like normal. Redemption arc is an impetus from MKC that gives the enchanted creature indestructible so you can pariah it to become nearly unkillable and you can run the Abdel Adrian + Necromancy + Tinybones Jones Up combo if you want a kill combo

I managed to cast both Myojin of Roaring Blades and Myojin of Infinite Rage on the same turn, which resulted in me nuking all three opponents' commanders and destroying all land. Two of them started screeching that that's MLD and should be bracket 4/5 only. The deck doesn't have tutors, so this just happened by pure luck.
>>
>>98377632
Myojin of Infinite Rage is in fact MLD
Gavin defines it as cards that "regularly destroy, exile, and bounce other lands, keep lands tapped, or change what mana is produced by four or more lands per player without replacing them"
learning this is important so you know that

>>98377603
9/10 the retards who do this shit are playing a garbage B2 pile with a few game changers. Next time your friends whine, bring up the bracket chart and go down the list point by point.
B3 is:
>strong, synergistic decks with high card quality
>wincons that can be played from hand in a turn because of accrued resources
>proactive and reactive gameplay
>doesn't usually kill anyone before turn 6
Then the hard limits of
>0-3 GCs, no MLD, no chaining extra turns, no early game 2 card combos
If your deck meets these requirements its by definition a 3. My guess is your opponents are running B2 shitpiles they're over-hyping.
>>
>>98377632
I was going to give you the benefit of the doubt but you're literally running one of the few things explicitly banned in B3. Doesn't matter how lucky you are, your list still has a hard MLD piece bumping it up to B4.

I really like the idea of building him as a loaded gun. Sort of like a bad combo deck. You can build up a massive store of creatures from him, play Plot creatures into exile (railway brute is particularly powerful), then cast Passionate Archaeologist/Terror of the Peaks/Warstorm Surge effects and take a big turn where you vomit all your stored-up creatures from exile to deal big damage.

It's definitely one of the less exciting decks I've built. Midrange hell but it turbos out a big spell very early if no one removes her. I traded for an improv capstone and just wanted an excuse to run that + Dance with Calamity, partners also let me run Genesis Storm which is always fun.

one person builds properly, and has indestructible beaters to hit you while you rebuild. the other players think this is unfair (that you put resilient creatures in your deck) and you only won because of a cheap start (they are mad)
all of this boils down to "bad players are bad"

Having played commander (in pubs, the place this issue is most feared) weekly for 16 years now, I have never, ever once had any game stall out from MLD the way angry Redditors make a guy up in their head.
>>

don't forget other people casting mld because they're about to lose and just want to grief the rest of the pod, amazing what stupid people can accomplish huh

I've played in a wide variety of local game stores, so I've been exposed to the absolute dregs of Magic players. I've played at college. Work break rooms. Stores in multiple states. Conventions.

Yet this scenario everyone gets assblasted about has never once happened in that time.

>>98377300
This Daredevil. Need to rework the deck a bit. Got a couple of games with him last week and while it was fun, after the games I realized I was only really using mono red burn stuff and I don't think his effect triggered more than once or twice. Brash Taunter for one did a lot of work. I don't want to entirely remove all the burn red stuff that worked but I want Daredevil to trigger and do his thing more and have a bigger impact. Otherwise I would just swap him out for Auntie Blyte.

Crucial operator: How many times have you played into MLD?
>>
>>98378116
The fact that not once in your life had someone cast armageddon on you just to grief because "hey i'm going to lose anyway" only means that no, you havent actually played the worst players in the world
>>
>>98378129
Very rarely pre-brackets I'd put a ruination in mono red decks.
>>
>>98377909
Really cool piece for tasha but also just in general I like this. Not exactly a combat deterrent but I'll appreciate my opponents helping me mill for a little damage
>>

>>
>>98378141
Okay that's not what I asked. I asked how many times you played into it, not how many times you played it.
>>
>>98378135
I've had players make similarly retarded grief plays that ruined the game out of spite. But that's because Magic players make retarded grief plays.
>>
>>98378150
Do you mean like overextended to get punished by it? I don't know, a handful of times. If you mean play around it pre-COVID I used to put a decent number of basics in my lists out of respect for ruination.
>>
Personally I think Manabarbs should go onto MLD and Blood Moon should come off.
>>
>>98378149
Gavin is very well aware how dumb players are, why do you think sacrifice effects all now have "of your choice" after 30+ years
>>
>>98378151
>because Magic players make retarded grief plays.
And that's exactly why mld is banned in b3 below
>>
>>98378159
Oh right to add onto this I did used to play and see Blood Moon a lot. I forgot Gavin's Jewish sorcery redefined "Mass Land Destruction" as "Mass Land Denial" despite it being the former for 30 years of the game's history.
>>
>>98378168
You don't need MLD to ruin the game if that's your goal. Just by existing with the intent to grief you've fundamentally ruined the experience.
>>
>>98378170
If you're jewish enough to use blood moon arguing that "it doesnt destroy lands" you're also jewish enough to think of a loophole to gavin's mld definition
>>
>>98378184
For most of commander's lifespan nobody gave a fuck about Blood Moon. If you played a 5c slop pile and got btfo by a Blood Moon or Ruination, that's entirely the risk that goes with having access to every color.

NOBODY called Blood Moon MLD until brackets got introduced.

only content creator brained players don't believe this should be the case
>>
>>98378184
Blood Moon only punishes greedy manabases. I genuinely think the only reason it's included in the B4 is that precons come with a lot of crappy two color lands that would get shut off by it.
>>
If you play Blood Moon at my table and it's not a custom reminder text Blood Moon that actually explains what the card does I'm picking it up off the table and eating it

You're almost there anon
>>
>>98377346
No, it isn't. It says it triggers on sources your opponent controls dealing damage (to permanents and you), not on permanents you control and you being dealt damage.
>imb4 it's the same thing
It isn't. An instance of something dealing damage, and an instance of something taking damage are two different things. If a creature with trample attacks through 4 blockers and hitting the player is one instance of damage being dealt, and 5 instances of damage being taken. There are lots of abilities that trigger on damage dealt, so yes, we know this.
Some judge is just retarded.
>>
>>98377777
Okay... checked, but that doesn't answer my fuckin' question.
>>
>>98378205
No, I NEED bloodmoon to beat precons, my deck can't function without it
>>
>>98378213
You know how you build a good manabases? You stick to color restrictions and run basic lands.
>>
>>98378213
Should we ban board wipes because they blow out casuals for overextending with too many creatures?
>>
>>98378213
>you have to shield these Down's Syndrome players instead of expecting them to LEARN something!
No
>>
>>98378221
No because not only are there too many of them to ban (just like how there are too many sol rings out there to ban it) you can win with a deck that doesnt rely on creatures
>and farewell got sent to gc land which also proves my point

>>98378226

you can have 1-3 game changers s in nracket 3
you can't have a single mld card below bracket 4
>>
>>98378268
It's not "precon" appropriate. I would argue even bracket 2 decks that are handmade aren't precon appropriate. Realistically they should have their own wading pool tier for absolute beginners to shit themselves in.
>>
>>98378274
What's a silver bullet?
>>
>>98377346
Here, I'll keep the same format by just change who controls what. Maybe that will make more sense to you.
"Whenever a source you control deals damage to an opponent or permanent they control, do x"
They is the same ability, but I just swapped you and your opponent. The action that triggers the ability is the same, just "controlled" by the other player.
So, when does this ability trigger? Here, I'll simplify it even more.
"Whenever a creature you control deals damage, do x"
The trigger is damage being dealt, not damage being taken. Who takes the damage is just a check as part of the trigger, not the trigger itself.
>>
>>98378278
Sorry but gavin already made his decision and his mld definition. not my problem you too dumb to snake your way into a loophole
>>
>>98378268
There are a lot of cards that aren't "b2 appropriate" that I wouldn't say are game warping like Blood Moon is. Might want to revise your point a bit.

>>98378295
No bitch. Das a whole different sentence. wrf is you talking about?

Bracket 2 is effortless to game if you want to win. Quite fittingly it's the ultimate bracket for mono green decks to win. Just ramp each turn under the guise that you aren't expected to lose until turn 8, then at 10+ lands just start deploying threats. Guaranteed to slaughter every precon in existence within the rules.
>>
>>98378305
>the guy who wants blood moon legal is afraid of primetime and emrakul
Kek you are a funny moron
>>
>>98378309
Prime Time is far more threatening to an actual casual game than Blood Moon.
>>
>>98378309
You are schizoing an entire conversation in your head, and it's not even a good one.
Blood Moon = Slows your opponents
Emrakul/Prime Time = Actively win
Any questions?

Is Authority of the Consuls MLD because of Earthbending?
>>
>>98378286
Very simply put: either the judge is retarded for interpriting the card wrong, or the designers are retarded for writing the ability in a bad way. If they wannted it to trigger on damage dealt, it should be "whenever you or a permanent you control is dealt damage by a source and opponent controls, do x"

In my old playgroup we played this loads, everyone slotted one in most of their decks and therefore it came out most games. We had an informal rule that it was rude not to pass it on, and we called it "Bucking the Nards".
Only after many months of using it did we realise we were passing it to the left, i.e. the next player, when specified to pass to the right (understandably so). We house ruled to keep passing to the left.

Why dies that matter? Do you think they couldn't ban giant growth? It has 20 prints in just sets alone, not including supplemental products.
The reason they don't ban sol ring is because it's in every precon. That's it. By all rights it absolutely should be banned, but because it's in every precon, and they want precons to be playable out of the box no matter how old they are, and don't want to make a rule like "unaltered precons are b2/3 regardless of their content", it isn't and never will be.

If you mean X = 7 then 8 because you spent that much mana and X spells have mana value of the total mana you spent while they're on the stack. If you meant you SPENT 7 mana (x=6) then yes you cascade for until you hit mana value <= 7. If you cast doppelgang from exile for X=5 you would cascade for 17 for example

Alright, I am completely retarded when it comes to comprehending the bracket system.
What bracket would this deck of mine be??
Be free to call the deck retarded, I am still fairly new to the game.

How do I play Stax effective enough that I'm slowing everyone else's down an appreciable amount so they're not just infinite comboing off on Turn 6 but also not going full retard shit like Grand Arbiter, Dovin, Humility and getting myself liable to be punched in the face

Stax is just an archetype that will make people want to punch you in the face. That's just something you're going to have to live with if you want to play it.

>>98378929
And they say they don't design for Standard anymore.
>>
>>98379155
stax harder, permanent/spell type less taxed so you can split under and do your win. Halting 3 players to effectively empty/useless hands through grind is borderline impossible with how many more effects keep going off that give shit for free
>>
>>98379199
Oh they design for Standard alright
Standard is a pile of shit and vomit format and all the cards they design are shit and vomit cards
>>
>>98379155
Play shit that only really hurts people trying to do degenerate shit. Trinisphere, 'one spell per turn' cards and other similar effects disproportionately fuck over the people who are trying to do combo shit and lets Timmy proceed more or less unimpeded. Cards like Spirit of the Labyrinth and similar 'stop multiple draws' also work well but more decks will be impacted by it.
I personally think Tanglewire does a fantastic job of slowing down the game without being oppressive because it's obviously temporary but the retards at my LGS often whine about that too.
Similarly, Aura of Silence does great work at slowing down artifact combos and is also a silver bullet to remove something when you really need to, but it also gets people bitching at you despite being an innocuous card.

All my decks land in the 7-8.5 range, and they're all B3. Should I be interpreting this as a good or bad thing?

>>98379231
Again, take it with a grain of salt, but it implies your decks punch a little above their weight class, and that's fine.

Stop buying UB. Shame others for playing the cards. Call them gay, woke, slop. Problems solved.
>>
>>98379119
1 or 2
Brackets are designed as suggestions not as hard limits so if you find yourself comboing out quickly with backup but it technically fits into bracket 3 for instance thats a bracket 4 deck.
>>
>>98379234
What I find funny is my Krenko deck is an 8.5, and it's made on a $100 budget. Nothing fancy in it like Sharpshooter, Purph, Deflecting Swat, or so on.
>>
>>98379253
Because, contrary to popular belief, you don't need to spend $500+ on a good/competitive deck. Hell, you could build a $15 Winota deck right now that'll destroy the rest of the table quite effortlessly
>>
>>98379140
This is a pretty good site, but the power level heavily relies on game changers and fast mana for power levels. it doesn't accurately take into account synergies and other things.

I have decks that it underrates because they don't have all the modal lands fast mana like the moxes, and have it overrated other decks that are made for 1v1 that have 4 game changes and lots of salt, but would get decimated in a 4 player pod against bracket 1-2s, but it thinks it's a 7-8. It's a good site but it's not gospel.
>>
>>98379278
you're correct but I also doubt an online calculator has the nuance to accurately rate a winota deck

Noob here.
How exactly do the commanders in this deck work? They don't say partner, so do you just choose which of them is going to be your commander each time you start the game and shuffle the rest in? Doesn't that break the commander rule that the cards in your deck are limited to the colors that your commander has?
>>
>>98379303
pips in the rules text count as color identity
also gtfo out of this format, we dont need your newfag UB shit clogging our drains
>>
>>98379229
Nta but i did not know tangle wire was a card, I actually am kind of in a similar boat in the sense of i want to slow the game down a bit but not to the point of stax levels, so that's a cool card to add to my to-do
>>
>>98379303
reed sue ben and johnny are individual cards but there's also a single F4 as a team card thats white blue red green that is presumably the commander
>>
>>98379303
They can each be the commander, due to the color pips in their rules text.

>>98379320
All 4 of them are WUBRG.
>>
>>98379303
There's one card that's all of the four together that's your commander, and then individual versions of them that are part of the 99

Go back to your containment thread crybaby
>>
>>98379360
Ah never mind it's Sue with her ability effect that's your commander in the precon
>>
>>98379360
Ignore them. Commander has color identity based on their cast cost AND any other color pips on the card (barring a few exceptions). For example, Johnny is a red creature, BUT he has WUBG in his rules, so he's a 5 color commander.

>>98379375
All 4 of the fantastic 4 can be the commander. It's actually a pretty cool deck since it can flex between draw (reed), voltron (johnny), and so on.
>>
>>98379396
Just for the sake of an example, I couldn't use this card in a black and blue deck because of the white mana ability then?
https://scryfall.com/card/woe/288/devouring-sugarmaw-have-for-dinner

Correct. That's precisely how it works. There are a few exceptions, like the Extort reminder text on Crypt Ghast. That one is an outlier though.

>>98379415
>because of the white mana ability then?
That's actually a spell, but yes. That card's color identity is black/white

To the extent that MTG is cool it is because it has a great rules set and sits gently just outside of strict fantasy
Ub doesnt fit nicely into the color pie and rarely fits on the narrow part of the spectrum of fantasy and scifi that MTG has been able to exist in and theres no amount of coping that can change that.

I can't believe this was one of the cards they were considering unbanning, but along with Griselband, and Sundering Titan. Cards that totally can hose one player, cause a huge resource imbalance or just win you the game on the spot with one card, but Rofellos, which only benefits mono-green decks, which are already at a disadvantage, is too strong to consider unbanning.

Back when Sheldor was in charge, the banlist was a LOT more "Vibes" based. Sure, they put cards on that were absolutely fucking problems, but there were also a good number of cards that did or didn't get put on there because the RC felt/didn't fell they were banworthy. Emrakul and worldfire are two such examples of the former, and for like, a year and a fucking half Prophet of Krupix was the latter.
