Thoughts on this wigger?
If Commander is so popular why haven't they made Duel Commander or Pauper Commander official formats yet?
how are you gunna feel when the miku secret lair ends up being the best selling secret lair set of all time by several orders of magnitude?
>>98462809good white land fetching but not the greatest. all white decks without green in them need Land Tax. 5 color decks can do well with Land Tax as well.
>>98462828Happy that they might stop pandering to scalpers and print to demand every time again from now on?
>>98462828>>98462796>>98462785I'm a dude. liking Miku is gay and the other one of you seething so bad is a massive faggot who likely is going to troon out in like 6 months tops. seek help
>>98462820Casual players like the multiplayer aspect and most of the fun cards are rare.Cedh players would have to actually play a real competitive format for once, rather than the determinsric warped (fake) format they currently "play."
>>98462820After seeing what they did with Brawl I'd rather Wizards NOT be in charge of the 1v1 commander banlist.
>>98462839>ur SEETHING right nao>makes the thread question an impotent jab at anime fans on this anime websiteLmao.
>>98462839I just played along with the anime hate for the meme desu, I'm literally watching Re:Zero right now.
This guy is more expensive than Queen of Dale on pre-order pricing? Huh? o_O
>>98462820If we got pauper commander maybe people would finally have a use for all those tap lands from the precons.
>>98462830What's the greatest?
>>98462857This is a commander card. Queen of Dale is a Legacy card. Supply and Demand.
>>98462857Smaug gonna see play in more formats.
>>98462866Wouldn't that mean that shitty dragon should be worth more because there's more inherent demand?
>>98462866Queen of Dale looks pretty good in Commander to me... and kind of crazy if you care about filling the graveyard
>>98462783>TQ>What's something in this game that disgusts you to play against.Pods that say>I play magic the gathering to have fun :)Name a bigger red flag.
What are some commanders/deck you've been working on building recently anons? Here's two of mine.
>>98462873I mean, it's certainly good in specific decks. I'm looking forward to running it, but it won't be a cross-archetype staple. Too low-impact, generall. Will see play in mutiple 60 card decks. Smaug is a big dumb dragon that timmies love and and kill surprisingly fast. Will be a generically good dragon card, maybe even red casual staple.>>98462872That's what we're talking about buddy
>>98462820I feel like nobody really knows what they want out of a pauper commander. It's supposed to only use common/uncommon legendary commanders but all the inhouse rules are different. You see tournament results with non-legendary commanders or rare/mythic budget commanders.
>>98462888I built a Zada deck for the first time recently after the Goblin Storm artist guy recently said we should go out and proxy his cards which I thought was based as hell for someone in his position to state publicly. I needed something ultra budget to make a point to one of my asshole friends that just decided to proxy an $800 Voja deck recently. Next I'm working on pic related because I heard it's pretty much the green version of Zada in terms of allowing you to slap your bulk into a pile and have it just werk. Just waiting on the ~5 hydras I don't own to come in the mail.
>>98462863I already said what the best was, Land Tax. Tithe (not smothering) is great too. Archaeomancer's Map also really good. Those are 3 best white land tutor effects I can think of.
>>98462888I like commanders with haste. or almost only play them generally. I'm working on Knuckles and Garth right now. Waiting on a few cards to arrive on my just finished Indo Rex deck.
>>98462891maybe I'm overrating recruit but it seems like it could be a staple to me
>>98462903>only get PlainsSo you don't know what best means.
>>98462820is he shidding and pissing ?
>>98462910land tax doesnt get only plains and the ones that get Plains lets you get Savannah or Sacred Foundry whatever has the type in it
>>98462910Did you have a stroke or are you just retarded?
>>98462909It might just be, who knows. The clincher for me is just making a 1/1 token. Couldn't quite see it being a staple like Lotho for instance. I could be wrong though. I'm looking forward to running it in Bart/Lurrus though, it'll be bonkers there.
>>98462910which card in white is better at fetching lands than the one that grabs 2 shocks or surveils?
>>98462917>>98462920Ramp and land tutors aren't the same thing.
>>98462925The question wasn't about best ramp but best fetching. Again, you in stroke town son?
>>98462925I never once said they are ramp I said white land tutors. archeomancer's map is catch up ramp but they're all primarily land tutors.
>>98462783>look mom I le defaced le OP with advertisements for my gay furry porn commissions again xDFake thread, not /tg/, shan't use.
>>98462892Pretty simple 92'd anon. Your commander can be rare but the rest of the 99 has to be common.
>>98462931That's a real card dumbass.
>>98462929>>98462930Just admit you're wrong.
>>98462947you're trying really hard to win the "worst poster in the thread" early this episode aren't you lol
>>98462951He's probably that tranny that was trying to talk shit about Miku earlier. He just wants attention.
>>98462957>>98462947I am the man who said Miku is for fags (which is true) and I am correct because I never said those cards a ramp. learn how to use reading comprehension, and again, seek help.
>98462839Genuinely one of the worst posters I've seen in ages. Imagine screeching about anime and muh degeneracy on fucking 4chan lmao
>>98462951It's just weird that you reply to a post about a unique white land tutor card, claim there are better ones and post generic inflexible ramp cards in response. It's a category error.
>>98462972final fantasy art was great. Miku is garbage. it's not 2003 or even 2007 anymore 4chan is way past "being an anime site".
>>98462857>evasion and haste>dragon type>attack trigger removal that he can fuel himself >creates treasure just by breathing >acceptable mana costQueen of Dale is a meme card for meme formats. Smaug has the potential to be a staple.
>>98462965You literally cannot be the person that asked the initial question though according to the reply chain. That's why this whole argument is retarded.
>>98462980It's also not the gayass Christian heritage site you election tourists seem to think it is.
>>98462980There will never be a time this place is not an anime site. That's not how language works.
is she fun to pilot?
>>98462980Imagine being a Final Faggot fan thinking he's unironically superior to Miku fans. What a life.
>>98462980This. It's an activism site
>>98462913He is obliterating
>>98463002Not really. Comes down, adds a billion counters to your field, dumps reanimate targets or goes infinite. A real "go off and win" commander. I find Terra more flexible and fun to pilot.
>>98463011Yeah but have you considered the fact that she's sexy as fuck and her pose is awesome and amazing? No, no you didn't.
>>98462938Kinda defeats the purpose a bit. Seems like the draw of pauper commander is using lower powered uncommon legendaries.
>>98462996This is unironically a pretty great Christian site but mostly because of how unchristian it inherently *can* be. Jesus would likely post on 4chan instead of an overtly satanic place like Reddit because at least 4chan respects your freedom of speech.
>>98463025You're not wrong
>>98462888Building this Jaya now after anons suggestions Need to find ways for her to live through her own board clear though. Aside from pumping her toughness or giving her indesI think Ive got primary gameplan figured out tho with just lots of burns and damage amps/redirects
>>98462992I am the one who said Miku is gay and suggested land tax, Tithe and archaeomancer's map to the person asking about weather wayfarer>>98462996stay mad>>984630051937: the hobbit1954: lord of the rings1974: dungeons and dragons1987: final fantasy1993: magic the gatheringthese are all the modern greatest works of high fantasy and all ones after LOTR are inspired by Tolkien which is inspired by King Arthur, Merlin and other timeless lore from the British Isles and so on from 900+ years agoFinal Fantasy is linked to magic and makes sense. its a Japanese take on high fantasy.Miku is some bizarro Japanese tech demo from Korg that some how has grown men fawning over it. AGAIN. seek help. >>98463040speaking truth to power here
>>98463064Oh so you're just replying to yourself then? What would even be the point of all that?
>>98463064You're implying I give one single shit about Tolkein or any of his children's books.
>>98463076no there is some retard claiming the white land tutoring is not ramp which I never said it was ramp. white's land tutoring is always just "fairness" catch up. and theres another guy that was arguing with that person
>>98463079if you play Magic you play a game directly inspired by Tolkien. It makes sense to have cross overs with The Hobbit/LOTR, DnD and yes even the Japanese high fantasy series "Final Fantasy"other UB/SLD out of left field, that actually deserves hate. on brand/flavor/similar background fits better than ever
>>98463040>Christianity supports freedom of speechNever change poltards
>>98463082Why are you even talking to ME then if you're not the other guy then retard? Nobody cares how hard of a troon you are on the side.
>>98463091At least half of it literally, inherently does, yeah. What do you think Protestants are protesting?
>>98463092obsessing over Miku-to-troon pipeline is real...stop projecting....
>>98463109Anyone that hates anime is a tranny, sorry I don't make the rules to English.
>>98463120correction, anyone that LIKES anime is a tranny
elk if you see this switch back to your old avatar it made me horny af
>>98463137So people that like Miku are not trans then? Good to know.
Thirty (30) starting life is objectively superior to fourty (40)
>>98463054thought about building her when I saw Cool but Rude but didn't know what I'd really do besides this
>>98462910>(You)
>>98463028Fix it with Rule 0 and a Pauper Commander only ban list. Would be pretty cool cause if commanders are only rares and your deck is commands you can ban commanders just being good as a commander and not having to worry how they play in the other 99 and vice-versa.
>>98463054Protection from red>.t, jaya player for 10+ years
>>98463054I'm >>98463341, forgot pic related. Cheapest option money wise.
>>98463360
>>98462820"c"edh "players" don't play in any real way, they constantly show their cards in hand to each other, threaten and give metagame ultimatums instead of actually playing. they're also generally complete retards who are incapable of actually piloting the deckscasual edh is somehow more real mtg than cedh
>>98463097>but what about MY flavor of mental illness you fucking chud!!!!We don't have time to memorize what all these tranny cults believe we are busy thinking about important shit like magic cards
I went to my LGS to play edh...and I had fun
by the way, did you see the new mystery commanders? https://scryfall.com/sets/mbc?as=grid&order=setthey seem fun, did any of them catch your eye?
>>98463403They're a bunch of boring gimmick commanders. As a hard Timmy I don't give a fuck (the hobbit also sucks).
>>98462809From my experience he's great. One of my favorite first had cards. White's catchup land searching can be surprisingly good.
>>98462888This Daredevil. It's been fun so far. Feels like a race to zero life that I make my opponents reach before I do.
>>98463403Most are tremendously underpowered and just weaker versions of something that already exists. Others have some unique gimmicks but are still very weak. A couple are strong. I guess wotc doesn't want to offend the new audience by forcing them to play icky non-ub cards
>>98463403who's this chad?
Decided to take a look at the SL Commander deck for Miku, because they're often (not always) pretty decent and well-tuned, sometimes capable of holding their own as high as bracket 4, but this one just doesn't have the sauce. Previous secret lair decks have had the charm of feeling like you're playing one of your buddy's decks, each card choice was thoughtful and deliberate, and you could tell real thought and care had gone into them—even the bad ones. This time around, it just feels like we're being given (sold) an unusually strong selesnya precon; that passion and personal touch just aren't there anymore.It's still good bang for my buck, and I'll probably buy it, but it's decidedly a step down from its predecessors and leaves a man yearning for something more.
>>98463403>finally get a repeatable Goad commander in Rakdos that doesn't require a bunch of nonsense>it's a planeswalkerWizards doesn't care, so I don't care
>>98462888I am trying, and failing, to build a fun Jaxis deck for what feels like the millionth time, and I don't quite know what I'm doing wrong. I really want to like this commander, and it has its moments, but something just isn't clicking. After this attempt, I'll try something simple like Mazirek or Scarab God
>>98463500meanwhile i care because it's a rakdos blood artist in the cz
>>98463403the battle of wits homunculus seems really strong to me at all levels of play except cedh
>>98463403for me, it's Istvan, Thomil and Jester I find them neat
What's the timmiest commander?
This star treck thing seems a bit interesting, tho I'm worried it doesn't cater to me. Is there some universes beyond star treck series or season that's set in the mtg multiverse?
just adopt a trip already
>>98463670>incredible protection and evasion>tribal focused around one of the best tribes>triggered abilities >do thing draw card>all creature get huge
Seems like there isn't... that's too bad, dedicating at least an handful of episodes to mtg lore would do wonder for onboarding new fans, but I guess they are too egocentric and entitled for that...I hope fallout or warhammer have something at least
>>98463704also>extra combat color, as a treat
>>98463704Absurd card. Cool that he gets to run firdoch core though.
Any creature should be eligible as commander, legendary or not
>>98463729And also commanders should go to the graveyard instead of returning to the command zone.
>>98463670I'm building Eshki right now since she seems like Stompy Timmy's dream commander
>>98463403Most of them are pretty disappointing. I like "retrains" on principle, but these ones are mostly just them slapping an old name on something that has very little to do with the original card or character, and usually very underpowered too.I'm particularly miffed about my OG Uncle Istvan being completely ruined by the "must attack every turn with this 1 power thing that people will just let through" clause. Or Autumn Willow retrain not being even slightly visually similar to the original card. Or Arzakon being one of the shittiest planeswalkers in history. Or...
>>98463735This, and we should go down to 20 life and 60 cards I think.
>>98463497It's specifically designed as upgrade bait. It can be stupid strong with a few minor changes, namely the mana base, adding 3 GC, and refining the game plan (e.g. cut most of the little tokens and focus on big dick tokens to copy with populate).
>>98463758Sounds like a hoot. What should we call this strange new format?
>>98463753add trudge if you didn't already
>>98463786I'm thinking something cool and military themed, like "Banner" or "Standard" if you will.
>>98463383t. Redditor trying too hard.>>98463403The Magician
>>98462783Nobody plays standard anymore due to ub shit. Premodern is rarely played.here because of costs and proxying full deck is just not fun as you dont have that feel of "scarcity"Im preparing for my first edh game and possible dc game. Im trying to build a fractal deck as i recently enjoyed fractals in sos draft i have played.Can you recommend me some cards for simic colors and having this doggo as commander
>>98463857Living Weapon cards?
>>98463857>Nobody plays standard anymore due to ub shit.That and eight sets per year making it completely fucking impossible to afford or even mentally keep up with.
>>98463853Massimo is cool, which 1 mana sorceries or instants would you put in your deck? (aside from staples like bolt)
>>98463857>Nobody plays standard anymore due to ub shitPlayers have been sick of rotation formats in card games for a while now, even before UB shit happened.
>>98462809He's pretty great. He fetches any land card, not just a plains, so you can craft your land base early.
>>98463873Magical Hack of course.
>>98463789the X cast one with stun counters? he's already in thanks breh
>>98462857It's the best 4 mana dragon in the game for commander and might even see play outside of commander.
>>98464024It is 1000% seeing play in more formats than just commander.
>>98463873I would probably rework my WUR Sokka spellslinger/token deck, since that one already goes wide and wants to shit out a bunch of low-cost cantrips. My problem with Sokka is that he's too commander-dependent and only goes online through burst turns that don't have enough umph to kill a table. I like the playstyle, but Massimo seems like he might be better for sustaining long-term value than that, since my alternative is just to go all-in on storm, which I don't find that interesting, or turn it into WUR aristocrats, which seems like a gimmick (especially since Massimo can run Jolted Awake anyway).
>>98464033Do you think it's good enough to see play in standard? I kind of checked out from that as of late. The payoff is there for sure but is it better than what current Izzet piles do?
>>98464044Standard is such a fucked up format because it can be filled with some of the most broken cards ever but those cards just won't have the proper support to build a deck around with the limited card pool.
I want to start up a series of challenges where I make $100 and under utlra-budget decks as powerful as possible.Which bracket should I aim for playing? 3?
>>984641751-2.A lot of the GCs are going to run double-digits price-wise.
>>98462888I want to build Merfolks but Hakbal seems unfun
why does star trek not have a ton of race swapping like making aragon black or that other elf fat.
>>98464228Maybe their owners paid a bunch of money to not have them ruin their series just like Square Enix did.
>>98464228the aragorn race swap thing was 100% due to spite because they felt lotr was chud-coded and wanted to wound someoneyou'll notice stuff like marvel, very left-controlled at this point, doesn't race-swap people like blonde thor
>>98464228>>98464230Star Trek R&D was likely after the great DEI purgeSqueenix I didnt remember having any race swaps just Middle Earth Enterprises which would have fallen squarely in the prime time for the height of DEI scumbaggery
>sensei's diving top is so strong it's banned in modern and legacy but isn't even a game changer in edh
>>98464228Tolkien never really established a clear and distinct look for his works. Yes, there are descriptions in the books of the characters, but they're pretty vague at best. The Tolkien estate also doesn't give a fuck and will let anyone who pays them money do whatever the fuck they want (see Rings of Power).By contrast, Star Trek is largely based on a visual medium with famous actors creating largely established looks for their characters. You can't get any nostalgia value out of the IP if Picard is suddenly a black dude.
>>98464285no one ever thought aragon was black and everyone wanted him as depicted in the movies
>>98464285>Tolkien never really established a clear and distinct look for his works. Yes, there are descriptions in the books of the characters, but they're pretty vague at best.
>>98464281>the great DEI purgeNo such thing.
>>98464291>>98464293I'm not saying I agree with or think it was right that Aragorn (and many other characters) getting race-swapped, I am giving an explanation as to why that might be done as opposed to it not happening to Star Trek (or FF) characters.
>>98464285> For the most part they were tall people, with flaxen or golden hair and blue-grey eyes, but there were not a few among them that had dark hair, though all were fair-skinnedShut the FUCK up.
>>98464365your explanation is wrong because tolkien's descriptions weren't 'pretty vague at best'
>>98464365The answer ultimately is that white people, white women and white faggots in particular, are fucking racist as hell.
We're going to have this conversation every thread from now on aren't we
>>98464365All this meandering fake middle-grounding to cover that you're talking 100% out of your ass.
>>98464381Your people started it.
>>98464382Indeed, anon. I am not a jotc insider, I was not in the room when these deals got made. I can only speculate based on what seems likely.
>>98464404You also never read any of Tolkien's works if you're disingenuous enough to say something stupid like "their races are vague."
Tolkien did give us the quote about evil only being able to distort not make it's own work though
>>98464427To be fair this is EDH General. People say stupid shit they don't mean all the time like liking Miku makes you trans and running one GC means you're spamming them, maybe this was one of those times.
>LGS usually gigajews for $60 at UB prerelease>they randomly decreased the Hobbit to $40 and refunded anyone who prepaidrofl this set is gonna bomb
>>98464443sounds like soijacks
>>98464454Which is weird since it seems like there's going to be some chase cards. More than a lot of the other UB at least.
I wanna build an aura deck, should I go with Krond or Uril?
https://moxfield.com/decks/7tGfAUOf5H2Ee94_OwxKjgCan someone help me not be a shitter and git gud at building the Miku deck up? Currently my idea for it was to build up life to be chunky and zap people with aetherflux as necessary, and abuse the shit out of populate with big chunky tokens. I'm trying to find more ways to produce tokens of stuff so populate can work. I kept a few chump blocker producers in, just in case I need to survive a sac or to block if needed.Ideally I'm trying to keep it in B3 (minus Miku Vorinclex, I'll deal with that later). Money is of no object right now.
>>98464511>using commander saltYou're beyond help.
>>98464516I just use it as a general guide, not some sort of magical gospel. It's got its own flaws, but it's at least somewhat better of a metric than "just feel it bro" with the bracket system.
>>98464521It's useless as a guide too so I'm afraid you're retarded.
>>98464525Then show me your wisdom on deck assessment, wise one.
>commander salt is a better metric than bracketsKEKW
>>98464529>consooms the anime slop secret lair>asks for helpI shant, secondary.
>>98464505Yenna
>>98464516>>98464525>>98464543>Seethes then cops out Whomp-whomp
>>98464560It's largely the base precon except with a few things I had on hand (e.g. bloom tender). Like I said, I'm trying to clean it up and focus it better. Stuff like invincible hymn is getting tossed because the deck has buttloads of life gain on its own. I think the direction I want to take it is getting token creators like Bramble Sovereign and Nantuko in the deck, so they can copy the bigger stuff (ideally things with myriad).
holy fuck why was that deleted
>>98464598Your reply has convinced me to build Uril. Many thanks.
>>98464521Bro it literally told me to add more tutors and less ramp in a fucking Landfall deck. Anyone that uses that site willingly is retarding themselves.
I once made a tranny ragequit when I was a newer player becasue I hit him too early with scion 10 damage infect combo kek
>>98464604You're casually asking someone to go through your entire 100 card deck and critically review it you fucking asshole, no one in their right mind would do that for someone openly acting like a retard.
>>98464655It has a very narrow view of what it considers good, and best I can tell it has a slant to cedh. It told me my tribal sliver deck lacks a win con when Legion and Queen and wombo combo a win easily, with multiple pieces to achieve said combos.
>>98464511>No TalismanYour ramp is heavily creature-focused, but you lack haste enablers. A boardwipe already fucks your gameplan, and you can take the ping damage in lifegain.>Bracket 4 lifegain with no comboBracket 4 allows degenerate shit, and that list won't deal with something like reanimator or storm since all it's doing is battlecruising. Your payoffs are weak too; you have no way to tutor for Aetherflux, and even then at best you're taking out one player at a time under threat of mutual destruction while painting a target on yourself. At worst, you're Korsan Gripped and dead in the water. Your other payoffs are... what... Soul of Eternity? That's going to be out-stalled since you don't have any evasion; consider Garruk's Uprising.Cut enough of the gamechangers to go down to Bracket 3. You'll get more games in and won't get raped as much.>Keeping Invincible Hymn and Healing Technique inInvincible Hymn doesn't do anything. "But it sets my life total to big number!" No. You're spending EIGHT mana (no reducers for it, mind you) to do what your deck should have already done at that point. It's a weird reversal card that only really does a lot if you're very far behind, but at that point you have better options, like cards that would actually stop the board from raping your face. The best use of it is casting it a rotation after Aetherflux has been allowed to sit a rotation, then holding priority and shooting someone with flux before it resets your life total, but good luck actually getting that combo off when none of your pieces there can be tutored. Healing Technique is just overcosted. Just run a reanimation spell at that point or a Regrowth.>Bloom Tender in a two-color deckBloom Tender fucks if you're in three or more colors. In two colors, you only get two mana. That's not worth it since if you're at a point where you can run this and Doubling Season, Badgermole Cub is on the table and actually makes use of the other dorks you have.
>>98464640I wanted to elaborate>>98464655Commandersalt also lacks a lot of combo knowledge and its synergy is a bit fucked. It's a nice starting point, not a substitute for game knowledge. Kinda like a rando just flicking through your deck.
>>98462972We have at least one unironic mati viewer here apparently that should tell you a lot about how low the average IQ is here>>98462888I just finished Vnwxt and I'm currently building Hogaak! My goal for the year has been to build only 1 and 2 color decks
>>98464675>haste enablersI was eyeing concordant crossroad, but that's for everyone. Are there any other cheap haste enablers (crashing drawbridge, etc)? >B4I'm definitely moving the deck to 3. The lifegain came with the deck, apparently to use with Aetherflux. I have Enligtened Tutor to grab it, but granted that's only one tutor. Garruk's is definitely getting added.>overcosted shit like HymnThat's absolutely getting cut. The precon seems to be all over the place. Ideally I want the only big spells being big stompy creatures (that I can hopefully quickly ramp to).
>>98464711>We have at least one unironic mati viewer hereWho is that and why should any of us care?
Moxfield is so retarded that it still lists Vorniclex as MLD lmao
>>98464718>but that's for everyoneThe thing about symmetrical effects is that while they benefit everyone, you're the only one expecting it at all. This one's a meta call; if you're expecting a lot of toolkit decks with some activated ability-centric shit like Arcanis or Aphetto Alchemists, I'd be cautious. If your deck is staying mostly to battlecruiser pods and can out-body the table, I'd look into it.I don't know how to feel about Drawbridge. I tried running it in an elfball deck so that I could immediately lead into a Craterhoof win without risking exposing my field for a rotation, but I'd be lying if I said waiting on it for one turn didn't hurt on occasion.Sidenote, but if you do end up going with Crossroads, you can toss in a Temur Sabertooth and that lets you combo off with Bloom Tender if you want to keep that in for infinite ETB triggers for whatever. Not saying to do that, just noting it's an option.
>>98464651Godspeed
>>98462888Kykar and Pharika are my newest decks. Both are still in the constant tinkering stage, though I'm pretty close to being happy with Kykar. Pharika still needs some tuning.After that, definitely need to find something with red that catches my eye. Maybe some kind of artifact deck, don't have one of those in the roster currently.
>>98463875There was a genuine resurgence for standard when they announced yhe rotation change, I remember a bunch of people I play with telling me how great stardard was now. Then that nosedived into oblivion when they announced UB sets would be standard-legal, and that there would be like 7 sets a year.Even if there was no UB, I think 7 sets a year would have killed atandard, the UB was just the turd on top.
>>98462790Maybe on planet retard.
>made first drafts of Narset, Eshki, and Ojutai decks todayMan I'm hella Tarkirpilled all of a sudden, who else is a fun commander from there?
>>98462809Very good in decks that want specific lands, 4-5 color, gates, etc.
>>98463403Jester, Arzakon, Ekthi, Sash and Waistcoat, Uugguu and Seleniabut I have another issue, a blog post. >Create deck>have a 'do thing, draw card' value engine player, every commander is a value engine>will argue vehemently that him hitting you for 12 damage and drawing 3 while playing the one ring and glacial chasm on turn 4 is bracket 3 because 'he's not wining yet'>NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BLOOD MOON IS BRACKET FOURRRR>from the ashes>NOOOOOOOOOO THATS STILL MLD I HAVE NO BASICS SO ITS MLD!!!>refuses to cast one of his extra turn spells because he's already cast time stretch and has 3 copies of sheoldred out turn 5>craterhoofs on turn 3, refuses to swing because he cant win yet in bracket 3. casts one ring. >tells me my commanders are weak and gimmicky and cost too much>runs volatile stormdrake/gilded drake/treachery in every deck he can>tell him that 4 person competitive magic is silly>wonders why I leave when I have 4 lands and no permanents because sigil of sleep yshtola bounced my only creature and I'm not constant value engines on purpose
>>98464862>>will argue vehemently that him hitting you for 12 damage and drawing 3 while playing the one ring and glacial chasm on turn 4 is bracket 3 because 'he's not wining yet'>two game changers>dealing damageNothing you said there isn't bracket 3.
>>98464862>from the ashes>NOOOOOOOOOO THATS STILL MLDincorrect
>>98464874>has one ring out>can easily win and has interaction/resources because every spell hits for 12, heals him for 12, and he draws 3>chooses not to because 'bracket guidelines need 6 turns'>typically wins on turn 5 because '1 turn early is fine'Why don't I just make a 'legal' bracket 2 cedh deck and control the entire game, then win on the bracket mandated turn limit? That's bracket 1 2 and 3 right there
>>98463877delightfully devious>>98464043>jolted awakevery interesting
>>98464912How is he consistently getting like 6 Y'shtolas out on turn 4 with the one ring?
>>98464917because he's genuinely retarded and is just shitting up the thread with a fake blogpost because he doesn't know how to use brackets
>>98464228Because they're real people, you can't pass off Picard as a strong independent negress
>>98464924No, this reads as real. Just in the "bad player" way.
>>98464917because there are so many legendary copies abilities. it typically involves all of the non-game changer mana acceleration pieces, such as gemstone cavern, mystic remora, etc. He has 3 typically, I mentioned 12 because he cast multiverse recruitment and some other spell. He'll also just randomly dark rit + temporal manipulation
>>98464924>use bracketsNo, the only people who use brackets are faggots like you who try to weaponize it and justify being cunts, then kvetch and cry when you get shit stomped by an equal or more powerful deck.
>>98464928>'bad player' wayexactly because the old 'deck is a 7' was worse and really all that anon wants is a return to HIS rule zero
>>98464941>then kvetch and cry when you get shit stomped by an equal or more powerful deckjokes on you the people doing that know how brackets work and how to bypass it (ex. combat damage is exempted as the 'turn rule' is only for infinites and you-win-the-game wincons)
>>98464956Except it won't work that way because I will angleshoot you and say that is against the bracket rules. Then we enter a game where the winner is whoever convinces the other two.
>>98464960>I will angleshoot youhow? by saying killing you with fynn the fangbearer turn 4 is le bad? debunkedhttps://www.twitch.tv/videos/2597691530?t=00h54m28s
>>98463857standard was already dead before UB tho
>>98464941>>98464960>this guideline for helping people match power levels to create roughly even matches is bad because I WILL use it in bad faith to crush casuals!The problem isn't the bracket system, it's you.>but everyone I play with will do this!Works fine at my LGS, sounds like you just have a shitty community. My condolences.
>>98464983The system should be designed in such a way that bad faith like that isn't possible. I can't bad faith that I can untap my lands when I want because the rules on lands are clearly written. They aren't some nebulous shit.
>>98464990gaea's cradle used properly is an infinite you dolt the whole entire point of even talking about 'turn limits' is to discourage infinites because everyone knows the optimal way of winning edh is comboing off
>>98465002Ok? Your system is full of holes and is objectively bad as a result.
>>98465008>Your system is full of holesyou mean the entire comprehensive rules that people have been abusing to win games since 1993? maybe coinflipping with pokemans is more your speed
>>98464960>>98464956 I described a situation where a player metagames and angleshoots to justify stomping in several decks consistently. Then whines and cries hard about a blood moon, despite casting 15+ spells before turn 5 and has sheoldred whispering one, 2 walls of basingse, and lightning greaves on kefka and has taken an extra turn. Has iron clad board state and 15+ mana available in mono green on turn 3, tooth and nails, then one ring, and routinely takes 2/3 of each games play time, at minimum. the guy also looked at all of the mystery box commanders and said they all suck, because they aren't value engines in the command zone.I'm honestly about to just quit playing, because he's in the friend group, and I've already made a monoblack dr doom that wins on turn 1 and 2, but it's shitty and boring. Last night I hollowed out one of my commander decks and used it as a meaningless face, it was killed on sight despite being a overcosted meme on turn 4. So I then sneak attacked out agent of treachery, and radiant performer the trigger. >>98464990You can't. It's an eternal format, there are simply too many ways people play. The descriptions of the brackets are fine as is. 'Players are expected to play X turns, and not be shut down the entire time by the player that is choosing not to win yet to meet the bracket win requirements'
>>98465017>You can't.Then don't try. This is just an admission the idea could never work.
>>98465017i love how mldtards try to justify bloodmoon because there is an optimal way to win in bracketsme running mono black in standard isn't going to justify letting me run demonic tutor, same thing with your idol blood moon in the lower brackets
>>98465041>Blood Moon>optimal way to win bracketsrofl
>>98465059yep, the lack of reading comprehension checks out
>>98464854Build ureni the song unending she's deceptively fun you just ramp out a ton of lands and you have a 10/10 hard to remove flyer on the zone to beat people to death with and clone. Imposter syndrome plus moraug is super funny with her. You can run doppelgang witness deserts and terror of the peaks combo as alternate win cons too
>>98465041>MLD>nonbasicsorry dipshit, lower brackets run more basics, and it explicitly destroys players using higher powered decks in lower brackets. This card is also goat and had the bitchking bracket player in tears because he ran no basicswe need more tutor hate, more nonbasic hate, completely destructive stax that only affects higher powered tables. Did you draw 3 or more cards from triggered abilities on an opponents turn before turn 5? testicular torsion
>>98464990How? How the fuck are you going to create a system that can't deal with ankleshooters? Shut the fuck up you retarded autist. Every fucking thread you come on here to bitch, and convince nobody of anything except that you're a mouthbreathing retard. How many times are you going to have the same arguments before you get over whatever immature, petty, autistic tantrum you keep wanting to relive? It gets old real fast you fucking nignog. There are countless formats you could be playin instead if you don't like multiplayer, because this type of ankleshooting is literally in every multiplayer game that's existed. It's a (you) problem, and the sooner you shut the fuck up, the sooner these threads can stop being a retard haven.
>>98465084By not fixing what was never broken
>>98464854I made a neriv flicker deck. coolest foil ruinous ultimatum art
>>98465087Repeat after me. Sit down and repeat after me you braindead retard. Sit and type this out you stupid fucking nignog:"Before brackets, everyone vibed their power levels, and there were ankleshooters because there was nothing objective."Sit down. Type that out. Sit down and type out the exact reason why you spend EVERY thread trying to whine, yet have literally convinced NOBODY.
>>98465087>By not fixing what was never brokenyes by having rhystic in every pod of every power level
>>98465083if you read gavin's mld definition correctly there's a reason why blood moon is bad for him but from the ashes is fine, only literates will know
>>98465093Are you willing to share your list? I love the idea of ephemerating a flametongue kavu.
>>98465110Every thread with you too. We get it. You don't like Rhystic. Just stick to bracket 2 or stop playing with pods that use it.Except you won't, because you're a samefagging LARPer that just watches Twitch streams all day instead of actually playing.You're so fucking stupid, man. Do you really think some WotC employee is going to come to this shithole an be convinced by some retarded spammer? Do you think that if you try to force this crap every thread, maybe a hundred threads from now, some grassroots campaign is going to form that's going to be your personal army?It's not, you retarded aspie.The solution is there already. You play Bracket 2. Except you don't want to do that because that removes pubstomping as an option.
>>98465140>i hate brackets!>get proven wrong>just stick to bracket 2!!>oh so NOW brackets work?>reeeeeeeeeeeeee
>>98465147>I hate Rhystic! I wish it were banned!>Brackets are shitty because MLD is banned by Rhystic is allowed!>Why don't you just play the brackets where Rhystic is banned?>.... SHUT UP!You're not slick you retarded nignog.
>>98464960>Except it won't work that way because I will angleshoot youThen I will beat your ass and throw you out of my house.Oh wait you faggots all play randos at your local tranny store lololol
>>98465157holy friendly fire lol
I'd people put as much effort into just building their decks as they do thinking of ways to win by skirting the guidelines of the brackets at low power, they might actually win at high power.
if niggas be allowed to play rhystic I'm allowed blood moon
>>98463504Jaxis can't ever be more than a mid bracket 2 deck. It just doesn't have the snowball potential other clone commanders have and gets massively blown out if you blitz cast Jaxis, discard to target for her ability, the target gets sniped, and you've discarded for nothing.

>>98465186Just telling the truth as someone who's also built Jaxis.
>>98465203You don't need to play with friends because few people use brackets in LGS'

>>98465209That's simply a fact.
>>98465182he's dead jim
>>98465215but enough about rule zero just being day by daylight, aka an abject failure
>>98465199>erm acksthuallyThey're all (you) whining about Rhystic with a limp-dicked passive aggressive tone.You also forgot that this schizo headmate is supposed to consistently forget the shift key in a lot of them when you samefag. Whoops.
>>98465228tsk tsk he can't read that i actually like rhystic
>>98465209No system will ever work if one only wishes to be an angle shooting bad actor.
>>98465242and yet poker works despite being rife with actual angle shootingthe issue has always been (You)
>>98465251Poker has a concrete rule system.
>>98465241Your sarcasm is neither sharp nor subtle.
>>98465253and edh doesn't have a concrete enforcement system because people don't have the spine to enforce rules (even rules you don't like) and at the same time don't take it seriously because le causal game haha, that's always been the case
>>98465253You're arguing that a "concrete rules system" doesn't actually stop your main problem with brackets.You're so stupid that you just conceded your main point and don't see how.
>>98465251Nice false equivalent you got there.
>>98465258>woman logiclolwhy would i hate rhystic when it's the perfect argument to have my man primetime to be unbanned
>>98465275>doesn't count!but ofc
>>98465289A grenade and an apple are the same thing because they can be thrown.
>>98465278"Woman logic" is unironically what you're doing: hiding behind insufferable cattiness to make a gay motte-and-bailey that you're too afraid to outright state, your argument itself refusing to mature past whiny fingerpointing.
>>98465296poker is a gambling game and cedh isn't, but as multiplayer card games they are the same, just like how grenades are explosives and apples are fruit but as projectiles they are the same>concession accepted btw

>>98464282sensei's is banned for wasting people's time. seriously look it up. I run it in several decks and it has to be the highest ratio of "I love playing this card" to "I can't stand waiting for someone to stop fiddling with their top 3 for the eleventeenth time this game" when you're on the other side of it.
>>98465332He's bonkers in any casual deck that cares about creatures, insane in flicker decks and token decks, with removal stapled to him. Also very low supply. It's not that complicated, you can stop asking the question now.

>>98465420viggo is also a manlet, but he was the best actor they could get for the role
And yet no one cries about the sanctity of Tolkien's work over bearded Aragorn. It's almost as if "not being 1:1 with Tolkien" is the reason.Also the Bashki film had him as like a fucking native American.>>98465423You can shave beards bro.

>>98465448This is always a stupid post because it assumes the other two players will join you to take out that player. Which would be politics if it happened. What happens is the politics fag makes a deal with someone else and 2v1's you.
>>98465448this doesn't work because I'd always be punched out by all 3 first (I am never the threat btw and the 2 always lose to the third player ahead)

>>98465332Jumpstart is the worst product Wizards makes.
>>98465426>bearded AragornDisingenuous false equivalence.Aragorn was supposed to be beardless because of his Elvish heritage. However, Tolkien's work also contradicts this genetic statement, so Aragorn could have a beard, so while it doesn't match the character description exactly, it doesn't break any rules that Tolkien hadn't retconned. Meanwhile a race swap goes against the lore behind the House of Hador. This shouldn't be a surprise to anyone with half a brain, because Lord of the Rings is white culture. It's European-inspired new age mythology based on existing European myths from someone raised and lived throughout Europe, and if I can be frank a bunch of American West Coast millennials trying to change that because of their own dogmatic godless religion is just as bad as whitewashing black culture, probably worse because there's no prominent watchdog groups calling out blatant cultural appropriation.
>>98465519This
Are slivers any good still? I took apart my sliver deck ages ago but I still have all the five color sliver legends from back then. Do people run First Sliver as the go to sliver commander now?
>>98465573I wouldn't say they worth running, because they still have the stigma of slivers.They relent on pressuring you, opps you played your whole deck and are threatening lethal on everyone.No one has a good time playing slivers, either as or against.Same thing as eldrazi
>>98465573>>98465641This. It can be very strong and will pubstomp, but it will make you public enemy number one and you'll be targeted from the beginning and might not have fun. If you and everyone else are playing similar decks like Eldrazi then you will have fun, but that hardly happens unless you all plan to bring out your dick decks.
>>98462888
>>98465573I haven't done it yet, but I really like the idea of a sliver deck where the slivers are there to facilitate some other gameplan besides critical mass attacking with slivers. Like some sort of engine with Scuttling Sliver/Screeching Sliver/Psionic Sliver. Or some sort of lifegain combo with Darkheart Sliver and a few other ones. The deck wouldn't be dedicated to slivers, but they would slot in as a package for the main archetype.
>>98465712thought I recognized that ability
>>98465573everybody hates them and the decks play pretty linearly. Most slivers aren't super useful either so you wind up with a deck that's a lot of chaff with a few bangers.
>>98465641It feels like monogreen also adds this exact same dynamic to the game but for some reason no one bitches about it like they do about slivers and eldrazi.
>>98465641That's a lie and you know it. I play both of them, and both are an absolute blast to play.>>98465573First Sliver is fun, but be prepared to be universally hated. I've had grown men start crossing their arms and pouting if I play them.
How do I Gix my friends in the most efficient manner?
>>98465879This. Slivers have about 15-20 pretty good creatures and then you're stuck picking draft chaff that has the word Sliver printed on it to round out the deck from there. I rarely pull my Sliver deck out because people just hate them and falling behind on Slivers once you've gotten significantly shunted by removal is really rough. Even when you're winning people start getting annoyed when you're popping off on Slivers compared to other tribes. My elf deck pops off way harder but people don't seem to care as much.
>>98465573Pretty much what everyone said about the stigma being their biggest problem. Boardwipes that can get around indestructible have only gotten more plentiful and easy to cast over the years, and Sliver players have a nasty habit of overextending, so the deck itself isn't more particularly than your given dragonslop pile.
>>98465908it all boils down to craterhoof hate
>>98465948wouldnt you just play the half decent ones (with changelings) and rest of the deck is support like Heroics etc so you're not blown out completely?
>>98466000Not him, but you can play just the good ones. Ideally you want all the evasion dudes (flying, unblockable, etc), the combat buddies (haste, double strike, menace, vigilance, etc), the utility slivers (harmonic, basal, crypt, etc), and the 5c Slivers. If you do this, you'll have about 50 slivers. What you then want is a bunch of suspend cards, because every time you cascade, you can search for 0cmc and grab one for insanely powerful effects. You also ALWAYS want Averna in your slivers decks, because it means every cascade chain will also shit out like 5 lands. Basically if you hit turn 4/5, you win the game.
>>98466000>>98466023Here's a good baseline as an example. I run this in B3 and harvest salt nonstop when I play it.
I want to make a Phyrexian tribal deck with the new commander that gives all of your equipment living weapon (I've already made a handful of decks that mainly consist of Job Select/Living Weapon/For Mirrodon! equipment before).Is there a way to sort equipment on scryfall by equip cost? Given skirting the equip cost is probably the biggest benefit of Living Weapon.As a side, would it also be worth playing token doublers? If I have something like a +1/+1 banner for my Phyrexians, when my extra germs enter would they immediately die since they're 0/0s or would the banner allow them to live? I would assume the latter but you never know.
>>98466050Adding one more thing, I guess I should ask if you can double up on Living Weapon.
how many people play universes beyond commanders at your lgs' pods?
>>98466097Ekthi already buffs your little germs because they are phyrexians so they will live I'm pretty sure. Token doublers don't seem like they would be worth their cost in Ekthi though. Doubling up on living weapon happens by playing Mirrorworks or Echoes of Eternity or whatever else copies artifacts. Here is your scryfall search.https://scryfall.com/search?q=o%3A%2Fequip+%7B%5B5-9%5D%7D%2F+ci%3Aw&unique=cards&as=grid&order=name
>>98465251>People are cheating faggots in poker, when money is on the line, and while its not always is illegal gameplay, but often is, everyone in that circle hates people who do it.>That means its perfectly okay, and not at all faggy of me to do it in games where there is literally nothing on the line.Don't know where you were going with this analogy other than to prove you're a faggot, but, you sure did it, faggot.
>>98466114I never counted but here's mine
>>98466116I didn't think about Mirrorworks.When I said double up, I mostly meant in the case of something like playing Bitterthorn while you have Ekthi on the board, would Bitterthorn have two instances of Living Weapon?
>>98466050>Is there a way to sort equipment on scryfall by equip cost? I don't think you can, at most you can use t:equipment o:"equip {N}", replace N with a number and you'll have all artifacts with that equip cost>can you double up with living weapon?you mean creating two germs? unless there's a "each instance of living weapon triggers separately" clause somewhere, it doesn't make two

>>98466123Oh, like that. Yeah, your equipment would have Living Weapon twice, which means you're gonna have to pick a favourite germ.
>>98466131I see you're just coping now. Faggot.
>>98466114I've got Lightning and Yshtola, but I've never seen people play Spiderman, Dr Who, and so on.
>>98466153i'm not the one coping here how the real world works, pussy
>>98466114At least one. Often more. I don't think I've seen a single commander night go by without someone pulling a Universe Beyond commander since Universe Beyond started getting sets.
>>98466114Theres one in every pod.Because its being played by me.
>>98466134Good. But by what artist?
Kill yourself
>>98466134Fucking BASED
>>98466189Probably Anaxus
Whaddup? Future king over here!
>>98466134I don't believe you
>>98465448Politics in Magic suck because of exactly this. For the vast majority of cards there's no actual mechanic to reinforce decisions.
>>98466239Literally who?
>>98466114Almost everyone has at least one UB commander deck. The majority of irl people who actually play the game don't care about the uw/ub drama that internet nogames fixate on.
>>98466250>there's no actual mechanicit's trivial to put punishments on your opponents like skipping their turns or blowing up their lands or locking down their boardbut it's 'unfun', so you just get damage as a result
>>98466260this is proven by how dead the containment thread is
>>98466114Everyone? UB commanders are common because the vast majority of new commanders are UB. So if you are a deck builder then many of your new decks will be that.
>>98466253You could just google it. Or go to ATFbooru.But the tl;dr is that he's a fanartist rather infamous for pulling a Greg Land for tracing porn for his pics. Which becomes a problem when he makes quite a bit of loli porn. Sometimes his "lolis" are clearly traced from petite adults in porn. Sometimes they're clearly children and, well, what do you think he traced for that?
>>98466260I play every week and I still haven't caved on UB. They must offer me something more tempting to get me to include even a single UB card in my decks.
>>98466292The one ring, one of the best draw engines ever made wasn't tempting enough for you? I think you lie sir.
>>98466260I'm waiting for Warcraft UB.I want to play Arthas, Thrall, Illidan, etc. What would the colors of all the major lore characters be?
>>98466307I am a dedicated bracket 2 gamer. I'm out here running Mind's Eye and losing games.
>>98466318Carry on then good sir.
>>98466239That makes sense. He's been doing this for a decade plus. Can never tell what some of these custom mat sellers are ok with putting on a mat or not.
>>98466313arthas is marduthrall is nayaillidan is sultai
>>98466336Uther mono whiteJaina azoriusKel'thuzad abzanMalfurion bantTyrande is TemurArchimonde is mono blackDK Arthas I'm thinking is Jund, actually
>>98466354Kel'Thuzad is blue black and I will not tolerate any other opinions.
>>98466313arthas boros with black abilitylich king in both pre and post arthas, one from commander product, in esper, maybe throw in lich kelthuzad as alt commanderthrall would be making spirit wolves from spellslinging so temurGW/UB SylvanasesRG BaineBant MalfurionNethrezim council in grixisRakdos KilljaedenIzzet KaelthasSultai VashJund Anubaraknon-green Jailer
>>98466336Paladin Arthas would just be Boros.Maybe when he goes Death Knight, he'd pick up B.Lich King Arthas would be Dimir, or Esper.Thrall, spot on.Illidindu Nuffin... I dunno, I think he'd be more Jund.>>98466354Kel'Thuzad would just be Dimir. Archimonde Mono-B feels too limited. Rakdos or full Esper fits better.
>>98466370Fug, Archimonde would be full Grixis, not Esper.
>>98466365>JailerBest to ignore that entire fucking waste of an expansion.
Gay saruman any fun nowadays or does it durdle too much compared to other controlly-slingers?
>>98466261Design an "unfun" politics card that's good then.
>>98466485At the beginning of my upkeep and at the start of my end step I get to draw a card. Any player may counter this effect by punching the player (that is not me) next to them in the face.
>>98466494This isn't even particularly interesting. You're fired.
I really hate gavin verhey
>mfw friend plays Karma against my orzhov deck and tells me to run more multicolor lands instead of basic swamps
>>98462965Don't ever shitpost like a retard with my GOAT again and that's a shoot brother-HH
>>98463403I'm going to try to use pic related in a mono white control deck with the Innstrand crew and boros angels, it's going to suck dick and be a big nothing and I'll shelve it until another Angel has potential to me and my retarded ass thinks monowhite can play control late game for sure this time and we start this cycle again
If I put 5 mana into this thing does that count as 5 times that it was regenerated or does it only count if it were to have died but I used the effect and therefore that is what counts as being regenerated? I started with war of the spark so Im not really that familiar with regenerate
>>98466644Regenerate is a delayed replacement that only lasts until end of turn. Consequently it does not stack.
>>98466485>3UR>Intellectual Property Dispute>Enchantment>Ward: Discard your hand>Whenever you cast a spell, Each opponent votes private, or public. For each opponent who votes public, they copy the spell. Then you create a copy for each copy that was made.>If a private vote was cast, shuffle the spell back into your library, then discover X where X is its mana value for each private vote. The opponents who voted for private then create X treasure tokensI tried. I'm not a clever man.
>>98464228Isn't WB pretty anal about actor portrayal licensing? They might have made Aragorn black just to make 100% sure they couldn't get sued and have their art compare to a rendition of ViggoThat's my "totally not but I can pretend" reasoning, in reality they just decided to make sure I'd have issues with a dream set of mine
>>98466647BOOOOOOOOOOOO!
>my decks are attracting a lot of heat, let's make a jank pile instead>On t4 my commander is an 8/8 with double strike and protection from creaturesWoops
>>98466656>Enchantment so it's annoying to remove>Ward - Hexproof so now it's immune to removal>Tempt with Mayhem on every spell so it slows pace of game to crawl>Very large imbalance between strength of options (no politics, just a correct decision)
>>98466684I didn't realize tempt with mayhem was a thing. I don't play politics at all, I thought I was being neat.
>>98466690You worded it in a way that it technically loops infinitely as long as players keep choosing Private but I assume the intent was not "Whenever you cast a spell, you instead cast Opt 5 times and your opponents make 6000 Treasure tokens" so I evaluated it assuming there's a clause it only applies to spells cast from your hand. Either way all votes being "Private" is correct in a manner similar to all the Tempt With X spells.
>>98466114I share the "definitive FF fag" title with a good friend in my main LGS. Im also the old-border fag as well.
>>98466717I did, but yeah. This is why I don't work for magic or play politics.
>>98466050I haven't figured out a way to search for that either. I would not do doublers on this, maybe panharmonicon effects, there's also modified creature support. But yes, anthems, including the commander, make thegems 1/1 so they survive. Triggered effects like cathar's crusade let an SBA check happen first. Yes, you can double up on living weapon instances. Living weapon means "When this Equipment enters, create a 0/0 black Phyrexian Germ creature token, then attach this to it." Reach instance would trigger and you decide which order they go on the stack. Same with for mirrodin, job select, and the other effects in the same template with no keyword. Also equipment that equips on etb, you'll choose either that or the living weapon trigger to resolve last.
>>98466679voltron is the easiest way to build a jankpile
>XGB>This enters with Y counters where Y is the total mana spent to cast it>Remove a counter draw a card or some shitI like commanders like this
>>98466679>>98466755Play the big fox tits. You know you want to.
>>98466804actually no I've played it before and got tired of shuffling
>>98466819She's fun, but yeah the shuffling is bad if you aren't good at it already.
>>98466819>>98466868Eh just play it like YGO and say "I'm gonna go back in" and shuffle when you're done
>>98466868I play johnny b now
>>98466804>Play lightpaws and shuffle forever>Or play three dog and need a billion tokens copies of all your auras if you want a chance in hell to keep track of anything.Feels bad.

>>98467037bug :)
>>98467037
>>98467047I had a tranny who ragequit because of this card shutting down xis commander with no recourse
>>98467047>>98467083That's why it's based. I almost play it in every deck I can just to fuck over commander-centric decks and people who don't play removal.
>>98467094>Person used it on me.>I just happened to have picrel out at the time>Um, okay. I sac my commander.>They took it out of their deck because "everyone hypes this cards, but its shit!"
>>98467172Whats the lore reason for these half mechanical wicker people
Fucking newfags
>>98467177Same general idea of chrome in cyberpunk, its just body modification.
Winota's not strong because fog exists right?
After advising someone on Glacier Godmaw in an earlier thread I actually cut Anger for it in this deck. I had some gripes today that the deck wasn't "bracket 3 enough" because I took a player out on turn 5 and then 6, but they didn't seem to process I was essentially just goldfishing my deck against them. With a Lumra combo deck and Ureni dragon pilei that left one deck to play any meaningful interaction which he didn't.
>>98467241glacier godmaw a cute
>get into EDH with friends>all play with precons from marvel or SoStH>neat>one friend wants to proxy smiling friends deck>imeansure>Blech Loafing Pest decknew to the game, and he doesnt have a deck list for me to send to a friend, is this deck op or is it in tune with normal commanders? i guess i wouldnt really know until i saw the list, but if you guys know maybe it could help me out
>>98467261It's probably fine
>>98467261>>one friend wants to proxy smiling friends deckLike he is going to make all the cards into proxies from that shit?
>>98467272Maybe proxying is something you should earn
>>98467261Any life game deck that hits black is just going to have the boring infinite.
is there a commander like this?
Guidinger Spirit 2WCreature - SpiritExile this card from your hand: Add W to your mana pool.2/2
>>98467286>the boring infinite pls explain
>>98467448Civic Spirit Guide>Human Spirit>Text(Art depicting a ghostly black woman, afro proud and prominent, guiding a throng of diverse civilians along a roadway)
>>98466485>At the beginning of your pre-combat main phase, each opponent secretly bids any amount of mana. The opponent with the highest bid gains life equal to the total amount of mana bid by all players, and you gain protection from them until the start of your next upkeep. The players with the lowest bids or tied for the lowest discards their hand.>You may bid your mana on any player's behalf.
print it you cowards
>>98467469>Drop this in any 1v1 format>Wit's End every turn
Best place for custom cards?
>>98467480I guess you could add in a "If you control your commander" caveat to stop standardtards from weeping about it
>>98467485/ccg/ when it's alive sometimes replies with thoughtful feedback.Unironically ChatGPT (or any major LLM) as the runner-up.Dedicated discord servers third.Ask friends after that./r/custommagic last place. After even asking random people on the street.
>>98467485What are you asking?To post them?To get reviews?To make them?
>>98467509To make them. Most of the sites I've been to look schizo or the output looks like poop.
>>98467527I use mtgcardbuilder these days but it has a bit of a learning curve IMO.

I bought a Hobbit Bundle because why not. Pulled this. Paid for the whole box.Also got Bilbo and Red Gandalf.
>>98467625he cute
>>98467625I'm doing a prelease tomorrow or the next day, I'd be fine with the standard version but that art is ultra baller
>>98467653>tithe if it sucked
>>98467625Prob should sell it now. Its mostly hype keeping it over $20
>>98467653I hate how they intentionally made the regular art gay as fuck to increase the value of the alt art.
>>98465573>>98465856>>98465879>>98465937>>98466023last week a dude won a bracket 4 game with slivers. I made a critical error as well and it being MTGO I couldn't undo it but even that being the case he still had the upper hand. slivers are still definitely good. he used the First Sliver and the cascade shit was monumental. Stifle only gets your some breathing room
>>98467689Smaug looking zesty af on god
>>98467718and that is to say, it was a great, engaging game. one of the players conceded early but didnt do much but it was high interaction, game ended t9 or t10 I believe (I lost around t9). slivers definitely viable although they're not my thing. and thats just how it goes for high power, bracket 4 strategic commander (or S-CDR for short).
>>98467689>I hate how they intentionally made (art depicting dragon) gay as fuckAnon I hate to tell you this...
