>>98905473I ordered some proxy's from Gobbo anon
>>98905550Which ones? What's the deck? Which print service?
>TQNo.
Did anyone ever ask John Avon what game this art was originally for? It clearly wasn't magic.

Im sitting out here in the cold autumn night handing out candy and I keep thinking of Thalia and how I wish she was here with me. I have a cute Chinese girlfriend now so I feel even more guilty for still thinking about Thalia but I do. I know she'd be disgusted by me if we met for real. I know I'll never be good enough for her. I guess that's okay. In some ways I have moved on. But I will always compare any woman I'm with to how I felt about Thalia. And those feelings will always come up wanting.

How do I go about making a deck? All I know is I want to play Yeva and slap down big guys, but beyond that I'm not sure what to actually put in
>>98905971Get creature tutorsGet out sneedborn museVomit all over the board
>>98905971I bought a pre-con and swapped monsters and spells out in an even ratio and played a little bit before focusing more on what exactly I wanted the deck to do.
>>98905794She cute
>>98905971Mono G is pretty easy. You play ramp, you play fatties, you play a few protection spells like Heroic Intervention. With Yeva I'd also look for anything with ETB effects that are useful at instant speed like Bane of Progress
>>98905971How's the deck coming?
>>98906061>go to scryfall>sort by highest power in monogreen>slap them inI am not a brewerI really like piloting and maybe adjusting, but I cannot for the life of me create
What's the point of tapped creatures having deathtouch?
>>98906096Your attacking creatures that did not have death touch, now have deathtouch.And all the interactions that go along with that.
>>98906109Oh I'm actually retarded, too retarded for even mono-green
>>98906076In that case you can always use edhrec but not for the median listThe only thing the site is really good for is searching individual listsFind 3 cards you know you want in your list, let's say you know you are going to be high on artifact removal so you want a deck with liquimetal torque, you are in elves so you put priest of titania and you know you aren't going to leave home without heroic intervention in greenWell out of the 2000 decks there's only 5 that meet that criteria You have cradlehoofhttps://edhrec.com/deckpreview/R6x_mwL2yAY8xDnDeDl1MwYou have elfballhoofhttps://edhrec.com/deckpreview/267OnYk02CJ6fyA8l5H6ngYou have a green good stuff list with some interesting tech cards and only 31 landshttps://edhrec.com/deckpreview/ru_757h1YwuhiKjFmqm4WwAnother, imo more reasonable, elfball deckhttps://edhrec.com/deckpreview/ru_757h1YwuhiKjFmqm4WwAnd then an untappy, almost certainly Ashaya focused deckhttps://edhrec.com/deckpreview/Ku7Cg3Gv2DUlKfjA11Ur7wPick one you like and start thereAnd you don't need to pick my 3 cards either maybe you think torque is too cute and elves are lameThe world is your oyster
>>98906096It's not 1995 anymore, tapped blockers can still deal damage
>>98906096Infect
>>98905898>lands for 20 cents eachThat's absurdly expensive for chaff basics.
>>98905794Me on the bottom
I see a legendary nephilim now exists, but I hate it.Does everyone here still agree with the old consensus that the original five nephilim are acceptable as commanders even without the legendary supertype?Honestly with the pway phyrexian got errata'd onto like, 250ish creatures I'm surprised the nephilim haven't been errata'd to be legendary, the designers even stated they deeply regret not making them legendary.
>>98906271>Can use all of them in one deck>This is somehow badI can't pick up what you're laying down
>>98906296Their value was in being gorgeous art but mechanical and color oddities while also being a full cycle.the new legendary 5 color was wizards saying "hey you guys seem to like these in commander so we'll just give you a cheap excuse to throw them all together"They've been commanders and their fun is making four colour combos accessible, even if they arent alone for that anymore I was just wondering if at the least anons in this general think they're still acceptable in that slot.I didn't want or ask wotc to make them a slivers backup dancer and I won't dance to that tune.
Who is your spookiest general? For me it's Vilis.
>>98906353He is cryptid, after all.
>>98906353Probably this lad. Or Mishra if we count when I merge him with the Dragon Engine.
>>98906271>>98906317>my favorite creature isnt legendary :(You dont get everything you want in life, suck it up or play in your basement forever
>opponent casts path to exile targeting Clavileno>i smugly inform him that the path fizzles because there is no creature named Clavileno, that the creature is named Clavileño, with a different pronunciationCheckmate
>>98906271>>98906317I mean if you showed up with a deck for one and asked I'd personally be fine with it. I/we aren't the people you need to be asking though.
>>98906317I assumed the reasoning behind the new one was that it made it really easy to run any other Nephilim as a secret commander. You could run all five, but because it only searches for one and the mana cost is flexible, you can really easily build it as a 4-color deck by just exercising some restraint.That said, the far simper thing for them to do would be to print a colorless card like Faceless One that says "Choose a Nephilim" and doesn't have a color-selecting ability. Backgrounds would likewise be illegal as commanders without an ability that explicitly allowed you to choose one, and nothing would stop WotC from allowing a similar mechanic for whatever card subtype they wanted. The only other weird thing that might do is make it so you could pick out any Changeling as a commander as well.
>>98906296You forget that the reason 99% of people want to play Nephilim is to be a performative retard saying they're not playing a color while also jerking off Ravnica.
>>98906394the simple thing was already stated: errata legendary on them like they errata'd phyrexian on elesh norn and so many others.Then when they next get reprinted, don't reprint just the one, reprint the cycle and have it actually say legendary on the card
>>98906271Our opinions don't matter. Only your table's.
>>98906452>>98906390you're mistaking why I am asking.I don't want your permission, I want your opinions.
>>98906456My opinion is stop crying that your quirk chungus tribe is viable now.
>>98906382No, I think my favourite creature might just be Suture Priest, but there are sooo many candidates.
>>98906464they are not a tribe, they are unique entities, they are not supposed to be a tribe.
>>98906468>They aren't mean to beWell, the are. Accept it or don't. Either way, stop crying about it.
We posting favourite creatures?I love this little guy
>>989064796 isnt a tribe, that's exactly why cephalids got dropped.
>>98906486>He just keep crying.
>>98906485It should be reprinted so more people can enjoy it without its 30-40+ dollar price tag
>>98906497gobanon has provided.
>>98906498Not every wants to use proxies, and it being only a 5 dollar card would let more people enjoy it.
>>98905794Happy Halloween to you too Gobbro.
>>98905863Is there a commander who reliably brings these three together?
>>98905863There are plenty in the colors, but can't think of one that really helps the theme.
>>98906353I love me my mushroom man. Spooky art and on the table with how ridiculous his shrooms can get.
bros... I am sadI got rekt early in today's commander tourney. I had bad draws even after I mulligand to 5. First pod i didnt draw my 4th land and lost to a monoblack sephiroth who rekt me pretty fast.2nd pod i kept drawing lands and not enough removal to save my butt from a monoblue urza.No store credit today :(
>>98906523right about the time the first commander product was released proxying was a rarity and usually consisted of paper printouts tucked into a sleeve at best, names and costs written on paper and tucked in front of a card was pretty normal.But as the prominence of commander design foremost in MtG, and later UB continued to rise and has now basically become the sole twin faces of the product, proxying has exploded in lockstep, as wizards gets worse, proxies get better and more common.I'm pretty sure there will come a day, maybe even in the next decade, where wholesale proxying becomes not just common, but the norm for at least half the playerbase.Wizards has shown us that subject matter is no longer important from renamed alt printings like the godzilla and miku and MLP cards, to purely external stuff all on its own with the UB sets.Wizards has also shown that the aesthetic doesnt matter, every set now seems to get its own kind of special frame, secret lairs get special frames, full arts get varying special treatments.What all this means is that subjective aesthetic is now valid, and it wont take much for most players to realize there is no good reason for wotc to be the arbiter of what aesthetics they get to choose from, an individualized bespoke product printed on demand is just logical at this point.
>>98906551Maybe play a color combo that has better draw?
>>98906551Better luck next time anon. Some game nights just go bad and there's not much for it but to just play through those.
>>98906555I have draw engines like Idol of oblivion and pic related but i didnt draw them>>98906563Thanks anon, at least i managed to trade some fodder for a Gisela, blade of goldnight
>>98906485Meteor Golem will always be a favorite of mine. Always try to find a spot for him.
>>98906498He did? Mind posting it?
>>98906582There are multiple optionshttps://ibb co/album/2WB3djput the period in the url
>>98906554>Proxying explodes>Cost of real cards plummet. >Can buy to my hearts content before the bubble bursts and inverts once again.100 dollar mox diamonds vs 1000 dollars would be heaven. At least for the one I need before I just use my proxies anyway.>>98906551>>98906567Better luck next time, though think some impulse engines would probably be better than something like four knocks..>>98906582Here is the one I personally use.
>>98906589for secondary market purchases I would agree, i don't intend to replace my entire extant collection with proxies ever and yeah, it'd be nice to more cheaply finish off some old projects with "real" cards, but now and in the future anything new I build is custom printed.
I think we need to talk about how Vivi has been slowly creeping up the popularity ranks and is now sitting in the #6 spot right behind Krenko I hope they gc this thing soon because it is way too powerful and makes every game revolve around itself
>>98906589>100 dollar mox diamonds vs 1000 dollars would be heaven. At least for the one I need before I just use my proxies anyway.We already knew you had serve mental illness. Stop flaunting it.
>>98906587Love that Ninja Pizza reskin. Only kind of wish there was also one that worked in the ninja angle.
>>98906589>Better luck next time, though think some impulse engines would probably be better than something like four knocks..i do run pic related as well
>>98906589back when I ordered my custom elesh norn deck mpc's order sizes meant 8 extra cards could be picked for no extra or lower cost over the edh deck, so i got 8 mox diamonds done to give away to people i played with
>>98906616mpc autofill might have an option, they have hundreds of choices for some cards, its a bit of a lottery on style and frames though
>>98906606If wanting to own real cardboard, but protect its value while still having fun with proxies is mentally ill, than I'm mentally ill. it what it is. Regardless of its value, I like to own the card before I put a proxy of it into my decks.
>>98906626this is the one on autofillsome of the versions are a bit ugly, the extended frames or moving things around for bigger art or old frame for no reason. I usually prefer the ones by whoever does the cube set symbol because it makes it a little clearer that it's a proxy.
>>98906617Surely, you are running picrel
>>98906635Noice, love seeing staples done up like this.
>>98906635Why does she have shit between her tits
>>98906659Fertilizer?
>>98906661I repeat myself
>>98906664Its dirt anon.
HATE gobpedo
Uh bro, fertilizer has alot more than just dirt in it...
>>98906639>clearer that it's a proxy.The card back or the custom nature of the image should do that well enoughif the custom image doesn't communicate it, then that's a problem for wotc, not you.
>>98906672I work on a farm, fertilizer these days is salt nitrogen and granules of potassium or powdered copper, etc...the good old natural stinky has become rather niche.
>>98906648yes i do, but I never had the chance to draw her after so many matches
>>98906689Rip. She'd be so impactful.
>>98906689does she exiles two cards from the top if i attack two opponents?
>>98906702Yes. And even if she dies, you can still cast anything exiled by her if you fit the requirement.
>>98906587>Literally dozens of images of lolis being railed by BBCDon't know what I expected
my cards all got wet...
>>98906679yeah but there's that guy who posts "but you want your proxy to look as close to real cards as possible" every thread in response to something, so I'm just contradicting thread schizos wherever possbile.
>>98906485Get in the cage
>>98906715who did it better
>>98906710https://youtu.be/2R_ecr9-HmI
>>98906635Good seeing some general staples getting the gob treatment as well.
>>98905473I'm intent in making a star trek deck, but I would like to utilise all 4 non-black colours.What would a good commander be? (Presumably focusing on lands & spacecrafts)
>>98906485
>>98906710Holy fuck anon. Sorry to hear that. I'd try to keep them flat to dry out as best they could.
>>98906714I can see wanting to match say, the original card frame style without a line on the bottom saying "this is a proxy not for resale"Yeah if some dumbass mistakes my baral in an old frame for being a real card that's them having an education issue, I don;t want to ruin the aesthetic I'm going for with jarring disclaimers.I also wont put Wizards of the Coast (C) on the bottom either, just the artist credit.and I also don;t know anyone who is offering a 1:1 MtG card back in the official style, i like how mpc autofill has a few hundred choices, some of the ones I like best are the real magic style that instead says Proxy the Gathering or the real MtG style that just has no writing on it at all, only the frame, the oval, blue box and the five color pips, like so.There are many ways to make a card look nice but also not look like an attempt to pass off frauds on the secondary market, without using ugly disclaimer text announcements.
>>98906724>>98906650I'll keep trying to do more as I go along.
>>98906554>it's edh and UB's fault there are so many fakes running around!oh please, stop being so dramaticas technology progresses printing services just became more accessible to the public so making high quality fakes became economically feasible, that's all there is to it
>>98906751Fakes are cards being passed off as official wotc product, intended to scam the secondary market.Proxies are customs, not fakes. Like with what gobanon is doing and 3 anons in the last week or so have made physical print orders for, bespoke items intended for personal use, if anyone ever bought one of those it'd be pretty damn clear they were buying something unofficial and would be paying for the subjectively desirable aesthetic.
>>98906720Are you going to post a card?
>>98906748I haven't even received my order and I'm already starting a folder for the next so I can have options to swap in and out of the deck.
>>98906771What do his balls taste like?
>>98906781You should tell your therapist that you're asking yourself these questions.
>>98906771intent is irrelevant, trespassing magically doesn't become legal just because you pinky swear that you weren't going to be a peeping tom and steal anything; it really just becomes a matter of how much of a bother it would be for wotc to exercise their legal rights to defend their copyright and bring down usea and shitif you take offense over me telling the truth that proxies are fakes then you need to step back a bit from your favorite children's card game and get some perspective
why do oketra's warriors go from 1/1s to 4/4s when she reanimates them as zombies
>>98906794That version of Oketra is eternalized, isn't she? So the zombies she brings out are eternalized too.
>>98906788personal use parody is fair use you retarded armchair wannabe-lawyer retard.wotc also is on record saying they have no issue with proxies that are being used personally and not for secondary market fraud or tournament/event play, so you give more of a shit than the company does.but just keep on whining and bitching that titow goblin pinups are somehow an attempt to trick people into paying $1000 for a mox diamond, because the guy spending that money is totally going to believe the goblin titcow is the real deal official wizards card, absolutely.
>>98906794Do you know how strong humans are when their "mental barriers" don't exist? This is why retard strength is a thing.This is why when a person is struck by lightening they are flung great distances. Its not because the force of the lightening throws them, its because their muscles are forced to their limits and they literally jump that distance.When you are a mindless zombie, you have no mind to limit you potential.
>>98906456My opinion is that wizards is fucking terrible at creating an aesthetically coherent and satisfying game world that people can fall in love with. They suck at art, they suck at writing, and they outright refuse to give the fandom what they want while shamelessly pushing mechanics and creature typed and art that the design team favor. Magic has succeeded in spite of itself, not because of good design (outside of the rules). There's a reason why Magic has produced zero popular characters or stories that have penetrated into wider nerd consciousness or pop culture success while entire nerd franchises have emerged and boomed since 1993.I'm an angelsfag, so I and the tens of thousands of angels fans are well aware of how shit Wizards is at giving us what we want.
what star trek commanders are looking fun
>>98906605Vivi is the ultimate (doesn't rely on infinites to win) Izzet spellcaster. It's no surprise he's dominating. Rule 0ing he needs to tap to make the mana is widely accepted since this is exactly what they did in arena.
>>98906801as expected, you are a retardwotc has things like the mana and tap symbols copyrighted and *technically* they could exercise their legal rights, but ofc that would be far too difficult and impractical, so they relentbut make no mistake, they *technically can*and they do in fact make a definition of what a *real proxy* is, which are scribbles and strips of paper, notice that these do not include their copyrights, moron
>>98906801>personal use of copyrighted material is a-ok!you really don't know how disney and nintendo operate, do you?
>>98906815Theft is fun, but theft where you can actually make other people's creatures powerful with your own cards is even better. There was already an obscene amount of support for artifact creatures before Star Trek and the set itself is stuffed to the brim with even more.
>>98906794>>98906800>>98906802I made something stupid.
>>98906818Lol, you were complaining just the other day how gobanon doesn't use the official symbols.You also didn't highlight the sentence after that where it say that playtest cards are also defined as something that wouldn't pass as the real thing under even a cursory examination.Or the next part after that that wotc put in BOLD font saying they have no desire to police things people use for personal non-commercial contexts even if that is in a gaming store.Nice cherrypicking though!
>>98906818>Most commonly.>They then go on to perfectly the proxies posted here>Then go on to blatantly state they have no desire in policing the use of play test cards (see proxies) for personal, non-commercial useWhat were you trying to prove with this? How to shoot your own argument in the foot?
>>98906828>Lol, you were complaining just the other day how gobanon doesn't use the official symbols.that wasn't me retard, i actually like gobanon>You also didn't highlight the sentence after that where it say that playtest cards are also defined as something that wouldn't pass as the real thing under even a cursory examination.the danger of that becomes 'ok how close to the original can we get before we can sued for making fakes' and corpos have contingenies on that>Or the next part after that that wotc put in BOLD font saying they have no desire to police things people use for personal non-commercial contexts even if that is in a gaming store.again, it's their decision to *not* exercise their legal rights, you're the only one here that can't accept that they have them in the first placefunny thing is gobanon would be perfectly fine in being told that his proxies are fakes, because that's just what they are, really.i can buy fake nike air jordans from sellers that openly tell me they're fake, that doesn't mean they're *proxies* of air jordans, they're still fakesonly in the tcg space do retards fail to have perspective on things lol
>>98906817>Rule 0ing he needs to tap to make the mana is widely accepted since this is exactly what they did in arena.Huh?I have Arena open right now and there isn't anything like that happening to Vivi...
>>98906835>>98906837I fear I may have misread something. I apologize.
>>98906835>i have a shotgun, but i have no desire to use it for hunting, only self defense>wotc has legal rights, but they have no desire to use it against people using fakes for personal usethey're the same, you just can't understand it
>never seen the lotr films>currently reading through it>get up to the part where arwen is introduced>because of magic i now know that aragorn (who is still called strider at this point) and her get marriedwtf maro
>>98906837>i actually like gobanonwhy lie
>>98906837If WotC did care to try exercising lawfare in this matter, other companies in the /tg/ space have done the same thing with a lot of money and set precedent by their failure in the attempt.Notably Games Workshop and Chapter House, and the 3D printing community now has legal protection to make and sell a lot of things GW would really like to prohibit, but they've had their legal teeth pulled over the attempt.WotC made this statement well after the Chapter House precedent, they know better than to try going after proxies legally, it would erode their fanbase support with ill-will.But go on, continue talking for a big corporation that's already stated they disagree with you, keep playing lawyer when you have no degree, much less have passed the bar.
>>98906851Imagine reading the books before seeing the movies and complaining books spoiled the movies.
>>98906851The books are 75ish years old, you're a little late to be complaining about spoilers.
>>98906857No I'm saying MTG spoiled that bit and Maro will pay
>>98906859The statute of spoilers runs out when I, personally, have finished reading the work

are there any fun commanders that are skellies that won't make people miserable like tinybones?
>>98906926No
>>98906926Wotc seem to honestly hate skeletons.
>>98906930Skeletons are too spookt for china

Thinking of making a Mono Green list, here are my initial picks:Freyalise - pretty standard elf ball but a planeswalker commander looks neatNissa Resurgent Animist - i like thar i can go for Elementals, maybe do some earthbend shenanigans too?Selvala - Big Stompy Can these guys hang in high Bracket 3?
>>98907030the border to bracket 4 is not about commanders (outside of busto commanders like winota) it's about overall deck strength
What do you think, worth running in doppelgang decks?
>>98906353
>B1-3Green is very clearly pushed beyond reason.>B4-5Other colors actually get to do cool shit.The whole format is just Ramping into Goodstuff value piles.
>>98907061The best ramp cards are colorless though.
>>98907057Not a General, but it's spooky
>>98907065the ramp spells with the least way of interacting with them in the bracket are green though
>>98905473>tqwell I got a leyline of anticipation tonight so thats kind of like trick or treathow did everyone do at their All Leyline's Eve chaos draft? what packs did you pick? I picked The Hobbit, Reality Fracture and Lorwyn Eclipsed >>98905233this has been debunked. foil magic cards look dope AF>>98905446yes the big influence including LOTR & DnD is why LOTR, the Hobbit and then other similar divergent high fantasy with similar influences (like Final Fantasy) work so well in UB. its all either source material or like spiritual cousins of high fantasy. >>98905478classic card but how could you not link the original image instead of the MODO version? (pic rel)happy ALL SAINTS DAY now
>>98907072I didn't know that you couldn't Spell Pierce Reshape the Earth.
>>98907061I like to play green because I like playing my shit. simple as dont need to fight my own deck to play some stupid fucking red spell to exile 3 cards from my library that I won't be able to play since I have no mana, no I think'll ramp 2 more lands into play untapped and play more shitthe inverse of your statement is just red is complete dog shit in commander. white also has quite a bit of ramp available as long as you didn't go first (pic rel)
>was supposed to spend my sunday crafting and finally buying a new deck>ended up half starting 5 different onesGOD DAMN ITI don't even know what I actually want, but I know I want a deck I can continually adjust and fine tune, one that's fun but nothing too crazy complicated.
Why is he banned? Is he simply too impervious?
>>98907195yes other decks simply can't compete against him until november 13
>>98907195>imprevious defense is +3/+3, trample, hexproof, and indestructible for 1G>so blor is a 2G 0/0 with no abilities
>>98907168Gets new cards every set. Very powerful. Very simple gameplan.
>>98906240I heard UK banned face sitting porn? Any bonganon can confirm?
When building a B3 deck, do you guys actually use all the GC "slots"? Just dumping shit like One Ring or Cyc Rift into any deck that can accept them over something more synergistic feels kinda lame to me, and my "B3" lists tend to only have 1 GC at most. But I've only been playing with a small group of friends and I wanna branch out and start finding pods of new people at an LGS, and I'm worried what I think is a B3 deck will get stomped. Am I underestimating what it takes to play at B3?
>>98907280I don't have a single game changer in any deck I think
>>98907280>Am I underestimating what it takes to play at B3?yesbut you should still play with new people so you'll have a better idea of what players will bring beyond just your insular playgroup
I think most players are legitimately not smart enough to use removal properly and would be better off running zero in their deck.
>>98907299Why do you people make these retarded posts?>heh everyone is dumb except me, only I know how to use removalWell would you like to enlighten us?>uh no don't waste my time, pearls before swine etc etc
>>98907299>oh you have a blocker damn, guess I'll generous gift it
Anything that has the potential to draw more than one card a cycle gets the boot for meRhystic? Enjoy your new elephant. Y'shtola? She's an indestructible bug now. Esper Sentinel? Got lost on the moon.

>>98906271It's really fucking annoying honestly
>>98907347You fool! I wanted you to cast spells! You committed one of the classic blunders!
>>98907354Nah Bello's special. You have to take him out with exile/sac, so Blasphemous Edict his ass
Is Bello the most powerful entity in Magic?
>>98907379only once he fully ascends
>>98907379Ngl all this Bello talk makes me wanna build him now. Probably with Konstrari as secret commander. He animates the Heartwood tokens right?:
>>98907395FUCK ME I MISSED THE MANA VALUE 4 OR GREATERDo you go Mycosynth Lattice on him?
I want to build a Nikya deck, should I even run anything but creatures?
>>98906865Because the Fallout PCs are too variable in their skill sets to make a flavourful effect other than "oh he came out of X vault!" which is boring
>>98907432
>>98906794>>98906802Adding to this, the only time you're able to (willingly) tap into this power is during times of great duress, which is where all the regular people lifting cars off of people incidents came from. The Japanese even have a term for this phenomenon, "great strength during a roaring fire". The reason why we're so limited in accessing this strength, however, is because it's so much greater than what our bodies are built to handle that our muscle fibres begin to snap under the pressure and our bones crack under the output of our muscles pulling across them. However, Eternals don't have to deal with that shit, so they can use it willy-nilly!
>>98906904What's a three quarters yokai-human hybrid like?
>>98907201Maybe Impervious Defence is a spell based on mimicking Blors natural defence?
>>98907437His character was expanded by supplemental material, all Nate gets in that category is "tap: destroy target Canadian creature"
Which of the Backgrounds is best for my beloved ShartWas thinking maybe going Orzhov with her
>>98907476Hardy Outlander or Cloakwood Hermit. Green gets you bigger creatures to sac for effectively less mana, former pumps a creature for a sac, latter creates tokens after a sac

Trying to decide between these two as a spacecraft commander. I figure Picard.
>>98907506Yeah just run dorks to ramp into her to ramp into big bois
>>98907518pick picard because they intentionally made it so (heh) that you have every chance to say 'engage'can't wait for more spacecraft so i can larp and say all the nifty captain things like evade and fire all weapons and full broadside
>>98907518>do thing draw card AND increase your boardstatewow so inventive
>>98907347How are you drawing all this removal?
>>98905473https://moxfield.com/decks/NfxORMw1902W7ud-cAkBAgRate my deck
This should work, right? Granting an ability to a card can refer to the ability granter as an entity on the ability itself? Or would it have to read "Converge - Target creature you control gets..."?
>>98907201>Keeps going even after end of turnBlor is a 0/0 with the ability to recast Overprotect on itself so fast it bypasses state-based actions, on every player's turn, for free. That's 8 mana and 4 cards worth of value per turn cycle.
>>98907354Get Forested, bitch.
>watch a vid of commander draft>oh hey gavin (the grand arbiter of this format) is playing>he loses>"well at least I came second"people do realise there are no second places, right, or does he condone kingmaking (the objectively worst part of any game)? because that's what "second places" enable..
>>98907077Happy All Saints day! Best Saint in mtg?
>>98907652YeahHe is in control for a reason and that's because he knows what is best for the formatComing second is a legitimate strategy in cEDH so cry more I guessI VILL suck the cock of the player in first more to gain favorsI VILL make you lose firstand I VILL be blessed by Gavin the God while doing so
>>98907710Saint adjacent but man I miss Avacyn. Sorin should make her again.
>>98907627you should just make it an ability she has that whenever you cast a spell, she gets +X/+0 where X is the number of colors of mana spent to cast that spell.
Fellas, how do I make people in my playgroup attack each other? They are all professional thumb twiddlers but they refuse to win with combos. Should I just build Fumiko or something?
>>98907789You gotta give them a little 'encouragement' with something like picrel or a goading commander
>>98907280yeah pretty much if it has 1 GC might as well do 3. Cyc Rift might not be flavorfully "synergistic" with any deck but it's a closer. it ends up opening up the board for you to win or stall out opponents long enough for you to win. one ring is great draw after a couple turns of course but depending on the colors there may be better options. for blue, Rhystic Study is an IQ test. If your commander is important is useful to have either FOW or Fierce Guardianship, so it's worth having in there. of course on any given game, or maybe you play like up to midnight on a given night, you may never draw a single one of your GC's since theres so few in a deck. from what I've seen, except for some older players who typically started in the 90s or 2000s most decks will not get stomped at an average LGS. there is a good amount of people playing pre-cons and modified pre-cons that they've changed some cards out and an average b3 deck can easily compare with a contemporary pre-con. and thats not underselling pre-cons, some of the recent ones are really good. and some are even "bracket 3" as the Tidus FFX one and one of the Dr Who decks both include Farewell. and one of the Ikoria ones comes with Fierce Guardianship. >>98907395no the heartwood tokens have a mana value of 0 it has to be 4 or greater. So ish like Thran Dynamo, The One Ring, Sisay's Ring (pic. rel), Mind's Eye become animated. >>98907710undrated & undervalued card for commander. someone used. this really well in last nights chaos draft against me as well>>98907652that dude dresses up like a drag queen and is proud of it. his mind is fried beyond comprehension
>>98907812>his mind is friedyet, he controls our decks, our rules, sets, IPs and our gameplay. he is in absolute power no matter how much people say "you can just ignore the jew"
>>98907812yeah i missed the cmc4 requirement. craterclaw and craterhoof would both be viable finishers in bello, yeah?
>>98907817That's rightAnd we voted for him
>>98907817he doesnt control anyone's deck that I know. one of the dudes I play with has armageddon in his hobbit dwarves bracket 2/3 deck. I have blood moon in a similar powered deck. has no bearing except for a random who might join up who just landed on planet earth and gleaned pReddit for their entirety of magic info. also no he has a limited influence. Rosewater has more influence over the general game that Gayvin. he doesnt pick and choose the IPs at all>>98907818without a doubt. especially the new red one, Craterclaw but they both work since they are artifact creatures. big closers for sure. pic rel is another 3 option to potentially draw into. >>98907826this has been debunked.
>>9890761510/10I've tried making a deck like this before with limited successLet me know how it goes
This stupid fucking dragon is getting in the way of my 10 deck challengeHe just sucks so bad
>>98907879Yeah an overcosted dragon from 20 years ago just won't cut itMight I suggest a better dragon for your command zone?
>>98907789Baeloth Barrityl + Raised by Giants. They have creatures and bah gawd they'll swing them
>>98907879Which part of "kill all non-white creatures" fail to clue you in on the fact it's a meme card?
>>98907892He's not part of the cycle, what are you stupid?>>98907906I was really trying to avoid meme builds and turns out white creatures are so prevalent in the format that you very rarely get to hose the table I've taken to cutting white creatures out of my own deck just to have creatures for oros to gain life off of The deck is supposed to be a bolas' citadel deck and needs some life to function
>>98907892UB is bullshit and I don't even like the hobbit cards despite being the least egregious of the outside IP's.BUT Smaug should've been mono-red as he is a classic dragon.And he also should have had a boardwipe effect instead of this card draw generic value bullshit because of what he did to the town, Fear as a second keyword would also fit.
>Brackets system is designed to restrict decks from using certain staple cards or a certain amount of them>IMMEDIATELY makes Green the best cor in the game, and it's nkr even fucking closeIt's amazing how every other color is being held up by a few mistake cards. When is WotC going to stop making busted fucking G cards and give other colors some time to shine?

>>98908082Gimped without red for Breach.
Green seems OP until you realize that every color can run the artifact ramp package and be just as fast as green while having all of their own upsides
>>98908107yeah bro lemme just drop 500 dollars for mox opal and mox amber and the tezzerets and the artifact lands and all that other shite
>>98908122>fire diamond is hundreds of dollarsWhat do you get out of acting retarded on purpose?
>>98908105Man if only there was a Grixis deck that was super op and virtually impossible for other decks to outpace
>>98908152>youtubersThey don't know how to play the game
>>98908151"Optimal" artifact ramp packages include extremely expensive cards like the moxen, the tezzerets, and some reserved list cards too like metalworker and mishraDon't even pretend like the Diamonds are even close to the same level lmao
>>98907840>except for a random whoso the majority thanks to UB>he doesnt pick and choose the IPshe has said Trek was THE set he wanted to force in the most and he got his way. he absolutely has the power
>>98908183>Hello, my name is Proxy!If you're building at the competitive level, it's almost universally expected, no one wants to sit down with latex gloves on and hired security standing by to play tens of thousands of dollars of cards in a game.
>>98908070This. Great henge as GC NOW
>>98908183 Green ramp is 2 mana to get 1 tapped land Please try to stay on topic
>>98907280Depends on the needs of the deck. My two higher power B3 lists have 3 and 0, because one needs some of the power and utility GC's offer more than the other. My more mid-power B3 deck is running 2, though I'd be happy to add another piece of fast mana to the mix (the commander is 8 mana) but I'm just too cheap to bother.
>>98908256Good green ramp is a flurry of 1-2 drops that dickslap a 10 drop on turn 3 so idk what your point is

i have an idea for a deck, but i have some questions to help build it. looking for some good cards that might be a little offbeat.1) what are the best/your favourite cards that are 5cmc+ and can discard themselves for an effect? cyclers are obvious choices, but i'm thinking things like magma opus and harvester of misery.2) what are the best/your favourite cards at 4cmc? currently sitting at some of the best overall like the one ring, smothering tithe, defense of the heart, and sheoldred.3) what are some of the best/your favourite cards at 5cmc+ that have cheaper alternate costs or ways of reducing their own cost?
>>98907776Yeah this is a lot more readable, thanks anon

>npcrec retard
>>98908665ok, go to your lgs and ask people if they know of replenish and if they know of rofellos's giftor using your massive brain, tell me your own personal definition of secret tech
>>98908606not quite what i am looking for. songbird is a discard outlet, i am looking for cards that discard themselves. i guess i should state the actual reasoning. i want to make a first sliver deck with no other slivers, and always be able to consistently cascade into a small number of very good 4 drops (maybe throw living end in there as well, if i have a bunch of cyclers and evoke creatures). i want cards that are higher cmc that can cycle/discard themselves so that i still have things to do in the early turns but will be skipped over during the actual cascade. i've already done quite a bit of looking at split cards, adventures, cards with cycling, cards with evoke, cards with impending, and more. but i am looking for cards that might not have as easily searchable terms.i'm also looking for what would be considered "good 4 drops" as well. considering industrial advancement and seige rhino.
>>989085931 - HEXHAVEN BATTALION MY SEALED G.O.A.T. I think Lorien Revealed is also popular. Kogla and Yidaro discards itself into your library for a Destroy Artifact/Enchantment effect which is pretty solid.2 - Battle Angels of Tyr and Trouble in Pairs always put in work for me. Mindslicer also for a creature that disincentivizes people from board wiping you.3 - K'rrik turns all your cards with black pips into Phyrexian black pips so you can cheat out so much shit.
>>98908673check out a modern living end list or two.https://mtgdecks.net/Modern/living-end-decklist-by-niuwaid001-3157871Overlord of the balemurk seems like an easy inclusion, as do a lot of the basic land cyclers from the one lotr set.Wistfulness is also good interaction
>>98908680>basic land cyclersWell, not basic land cyclers. Much better than that, 1 mana search for a land with that land type. Great mana fixing for your 5 color deck that can't use traditional green ramp because of the cascade thing.

>>98908593The ikoria keyword counter cyclers, there's a couple of non-cycle 'discard this for an effect' cards from recent limited formats like the r/u one from return to strixhavenI like invasion of segovia(?) The blue one that makes the legendary kraken that gives your stuff convoke.
>>98908754Hexproof and indestructible are meaningless into cyclonic rift and farewell. I can't think of any green cards that beat it and white only really has about 3 phasing cards.

>>98908788Cyc Rift and Farewell are gane changers, and single cards. Mass board protection is far more spread out.

>>98907789
>>98907879The trick is to not build around him. A 6/6 Dragon for 6 is still a good stat line, anything else is gravy.
>>98909155I don't think you fully comprehend how bad spending 6 mana on a 6/6 no text is against opponents that are running cards that do things.
This format would be greatly improved if they were to ban every commander that says draw a card or something similar on it.
>>98909191you can fill your deck with strong cards that do things and clear the way for playing your dragon that does a mini boardwipe whenever he contacts an opponent.
>>98909198Yes now let's consider my opponents are also running good cards plus they have a commander with text on it.
>>98909204you are not winning cedh games with oros but if you really insist on winning the game no matter what there are many many many good cards in black red and white you can fill your deck with and stomp many piles and many bad to mediocre players
>>98909197I used to be opposed to this but I eventually realized why WotC keeps making precon commanders setup+payoff and card advantage all in one. It's because:>The average player (not just new player, average player) is retarded and doesn't know how important card advantage is>Even retards will typically cast their commander if only on accident because they ran out of other cards to castThe average player never consciously thinks about how hitting your land drop every turn means you need to average drawing 3 cards a turn. They just see a bomb in their first mulligan and pray for lands and no enemy counterspells. Commanders that give draw power fix this and patch over non-games. These precon commanders are probably the reason 80% of EDH games don't end with multiple players saying they didn't get to do anything (because they got mana screwed.)
>>98909060You too, thanks.
>>98909208I like how you brushed over red's ability to generate 15 mana in one turn. We MUST maintain the "red is bad" agenda.
>>98909208>>98909238Never mind I'm illiterate I thought you said "black and white" and somehow missed the word "red" right in the fucking middle.
>>98909250>most sane red player
>>98909224I for one think it would be great if more retards had bad experiences with the format because of their own retardation. It would hopefully drive these retards out of the format or better yet, out of the game.
>>98909238Red has some fantastic cards. Most of what i'm thinking of are just stax pieces, so have faithless looting instead.
>>98906835Aw hell yeah, nazgul titties
Alright bros I want to completely storm off, what commander should I play?
>>98909263While good, that is not card advantage.grab dragons mantle and wild guess, both are better.
>>98909277Easy, ral monsoon mage. He's a reducer and a payoff in the command zone for 2 mana, and he gives you red and blue (all you really need). All you have to do is cast 5 instants or sorceries in a turn while he's in play and there's a 50% chance you get up to 8 instants and sorceries for free, and that should absolutely convert into a win. With 6 spells there's a 75% chance he flips, and so on.You could also play Kykar, as he gives you access to white as well and is a mana generating engine.>>98909282Dragon mantle is shit and wild guess is much worse than faithless looting when faithless looting is good, which is when your graveyard is an extension of your hand or when you just want as much filtering as possible.
>>98909260Unfortunately I've come to realize the retards are load-bearing. It doesn't matter how much strategic depth the game has or allegedly has. If the onboarding experience is horrible, people will just not play it (see: Artifact). 1v1 formats just don't fire in paper play anymore specifically because they demand a large amount of upfront skills that the average player doesn't have and will likely never develop. Even something seemingly simple like acknowledging that you can get a higher overall winrate by accepting losing matchups instead of trying to patch over them is something many EDH players don't understand because cards like Generous Gift create the impression of being able to handle any situation when that's not the case. The average person will not intuitively understand the scale of draw power they need from their first game, even when coming from other card games since none of them use a resource system that commands a need for such deep draw just to not start a cascading deficit. There's a limit to how much "git gud" will convince someone to keep playing when their experience is 3 turns of no land for turn so no plays.Quite frankly EDH is also fucking miserable when fully optimized because your choice of commander and deck identity rapidly lose focus in favor of generically overtuned cards.
>>98909304>commander>strategic depth
>>98909305Even more reason retards are load-bearing to the format.
>>98909301That's only the case when you're paired with green or black, and then you have better draw anyway.Wheels tend to be expensive, faithless looting, goblin rummager and other non-advantage draws are situational. Mantle is (R):draw a card, no one cares about the firebreathing aura.
>>98909309R draw a card is not card advantage, it is a shitty conditional cantrip that you can't play on turn 1 most of the time and doesn't help you filter at all. Damn near unplayable.Mono red your card advantage is your commander, letting you play your shitty looting and rummage effects. Red with other colors your looting effects become much better.
>>98909331>turn 1Well duh, in this imaginary world where the entire deck is in hand turn 1, you play sol ring and mox diamond.>commander: do thing, draw You're incredibly gay.
>>98909263>>98909282Did we forget that red has a 2 mana draw 2 and we're now just LARPing that there's no space between Expedite and Dragon Mage?
>>98906835I want gobanon to do more normal women.
>>98909365impulse draw is not real draw, but it is certainly better than conditional card neutral draw. you do sort of have to tune your deck to facilitate impulse draw if you're going to properly take advantage of it, which isn't too hard in mono red really. and they've printed quite a few of these effects by now.
>>98909365That's one part of a draw package, whats the rest? dragons mantle and wild guess will be on the list for anyone who actually plays instead of theorybuilding as a secondary, who also isnt spending serious money.
>>98909370No! More goblins are yet needed! There isn't even chieftain/warchief/trashmaster/wardriver/boartusk yet!
>>98909388>whats the rest?Probably the other identical copies of reckless impulse they've printed.But as you're now using buzzwords i can safely assume you don't have any decks and don't actually play, and if you do play and think "R draw a card (if there's a creature in play and if it's not your creature you buff an opponent's creature for free)" is a playable a card then you don't play above bracket 2 at best.
>>98909391You have enough, let the rest of us have some sleeze.
>>98909402Kinki-kiki!>youve had enoughI think jund anon has, the rest of us don't even have basic krenko deck =(
>>98909282>>98909388NTA, but you named two cards that I ended up cutting after playing with a budget monoR list for a while, simply because there were better options.I swapped Dragon Mantle for Artifist Acumen, since you can play the latter on an empty board if you really need to, and there's a lot more instant/sorcery synergy there. As for Wild Guess, it's really easy to find better alternatives. Thrill of Possibility, Sazacap's Brew, and Witch's Mark are fairly mild boosts, but you can also run Stormshriek Feral which comes with what is basically a Tormenting Voice attached. The only reason I don't run more impulse draw is because there's enough graveyard and flashback effects in the deck that discarding tends to be a payoff. And I'm also obviously running Faithless Looting in there.I can see situations where Dragon Mantle might be useful. A WR enchantment voltron list for example. But Wild Guess of all things?
>>98909470>all these names of new FIRE era cards
>>98909555Yeah sorry we should be naming honest cards like Rhystic Study.
>>98909564Yes. That one operates in it's color pie wheelhouse. Red is not meant to have zero-risk draw.
>>98909555If you're going to tell people to run better cards, I don't see why you're drawing the line at Wild Guess.
>>98909585I draw the line at 2015.
>>98909588I have also started doing this. I lose way more but at least I like all the cards in my hand.
>>98909588>2015>aka not pure enough for 2013 PrEDHlol
>>98909596It's the aesthetic card frame difference, excluding commander product is also perfectly reasonable though.
>>98909601>It's the aesthetic card frame difference>aka not pure enough for 2003 premodernlol
>>98909602both premodern and 2015 modern have their place, premodern is fucking expensive.This is the difference between people who actually play and eternally online secondaries who theory all day.
>>98909624>2015 modern>aka afraid of fatal pushlol the correct closed format is prefire modernhttps://prefiremagic.com/
I'm glad I'm not a retard that has to jump through a bunch of mental hoops about what format legal card is and isn't acceptable because of arbitrary date.
>>98909577Wheel of Fortune was in alpha.
>>98907536Are we implying>big lord buff+a land search on attackis riveting shit?
>>98909699wotc should be banned from making new cards for a yearinstead they must ban 6 sets worth of card next year
I'm having a really hard time choosing the art for the diamond cycle
>>98909696wheels are in red, pure unconditional draw is not.
at least in titanbreach we'll finally get a WBG vehicles commander
>>98909652>up to 2019Lmfao, no.
>>98909713I hate how in the general it's impossible to tell the difference between an ironic bad take for memes and genuine mental retardation from idiots who think their warped world view is good
>>98909720Gobanon? more necklaces displayed on pillowy goblin tits!
>>98909731or each cycle could be a different form of jewelry.tongue studs for one set,navel studs for another,toe rings,finger rings,earrings,bracelets
>>98909728They could ban 6 full sets of cards and there'd still be UB cards legal. If anything, that take is not nearly strong enough to fix magic.
>>98909731Just ask him out on a date already, for fuck sake.Why the fuck is half the general all talking about a retard who makes the lowest of the low fetish slop? And not even good slop.
>>98909731no fuck off
>>98909773Because he is supplying a type of imagery wotc hasn't put on cards for over 15 years and he is doing it without hedging.
masculine urge to build lavinia hatebears/land destruction
>>98909787I threw my version out the other day when I got the promoI have no idea how that shit slipped through QA
>>98909577>>98909725treasures are in red and so dockside did nothing wrong
>>98909794The armor does look neat
>>98909773calm down they're just proxies
>>98909782>>98909806No you retarded fuck. He and you are spamming the general with retarded off-topic eyesore trash nonsense.
>>98909823Fuck off, troll.
>>98909830>If you want the general to not be dogshit, you are a troll Kill yourself.
>>98909804also its clearly not a man in a dress
>>98909834Fuck off troll.
>>98909797Treasures and food are both just bad design.Or at least poorly implemented, they're exactly the same shit as generic legendary do thing-draw card, its catering to low effort brainlets who buy into the game because of new thing shiny.
>>98909806eat a dick golbinfag
>>98909823>>98909834fuck off troll!
>>98909849but enough about rhystic study being ok because it follows the color pie
>>98909647I'm sorry anon, you are putting real work into making something fun and unique and you are drowned out by slop and slop gobblers
>>98909787>>98909804he looklike a man
>>98909823>spamming the general with retarded off-topic eyesore trash nonsensethat's proxies, aka counterfeitsfuck proxyfags of all sortsnothing speaks to appreciating authenticity more than buying real wotc cardboard
>>98909880They wont give you a medal.They might send the pinkertons to beat you up and take your cards though.
>>98909902those artists aren't fucking you for defending their honor from the ai slop either
>was inspired by the AI talk a few threads back>hmm making updates should be really easy if AI can take a list of cuts and adds and automatically update the list >get met with phrases like >despite arcane signet being in your adds category we decided to cut it instead lol ai is no better than an early 2000s chatbot
>>98909624>2015 Modern>Look inside>More fucking Amulet Titan except this time Twin has cameo appearancesI hate that this playerbase has become infested with fucking retards that think the game was peak during whatever era they were in high school and didn't know the meta so they just assumed it was balanced.
>>98909913First of all it is SUPER intelligence. Second of all it's not intelligent at all, it just gives you the statistical average text response to your post.
>>98909731>GobanonEw. No. I make actual quality.
>>98909720Can't go wrong with mirage, truly. Good art and you get the old border, and it's only a few dollars or so more than the cheapest ones.
>>98909987You know, I've only realized after posting that you're the legend of zelda guy. Still leaving mirage fire diamond here in posterity though.
>>98909980Mmhmm, how many anons ITT have purchased physical prints of your images?
miragechads rise up
>>98909910Are the pinkertons threatening you right now to defend wotc? is that why you're always dying on this hill?
>>98910065This is bait, but the purchases of retards does not an argument for quality make.
>>98910076So... No one is buying your stuff.
>>98909962YeahLike I saidChatbot from the early 2000sI swear you can put whatever you want after the first like ten words in a post my sister sucked my dick and nobody will read it
>>98910076By this logic I could define TMT as the peak of Magic sets then declare everyone else the retard.
>>98909873I am happy you think highly of my stuff, but the remark is unfair. I am glad I can post this here, while it is somewhat of a tall order to ask people to tolerate cutom cards. And getting feedback is reward in and of itelf.
im sorry gobanon but i just couldnt bring myself to use a picture with a knife-eared harlot in it
>>98910106>>98910106>>98910106

>>98910125mirage is getting fucking massacred lore-wise and aesthetics-wise. it'll be full of quips to no end and the ugliest art you've ever seen (outside of ubshit). maybe we'll get an LED but better somehow, not that that would really be a good thing.
>>98910075Keep seething impotently about ai, furry
