What a shit legend.

When are we going to start getting legends that explore new design space again?

That being said, this card is going to allow g/r/x decks to generate a shit ton of mana. Azuza/summer bloom/exploration and bouncing Gaea's Cradle comes to mind.

I have a G/B/R Eldrazi deck but with the advent of blue Eldrazi in BFZ I seriously considered making it five-color, partly so I could have flying, but also so I could use Herald of Kozilek and Sire of Stagnation. Sire has a special place in my heart after I pulled it in a draft with some friends and fucking curbstomped because all my friends had built around landfall to some degree.

Anyway with the one white Eldrazi that was spoiled I feel even more incentivised to go five-color, but of course my commander selection is limited and I certainly can't have an Eldrazi commander. Any suggestions?

>>44622345
Only played one in person and it was the 'gain points for doing certain things and lose points for being competitive about it' kind. It wasnt terrible honestly but the kinds of people there were pretty varied which didnt mesh well with the points system, and it was in like three 8 man pods, wouldve likely been better as a six 4s.

TL;DR: if you need a game they can suffice but depending on how they run it expect funky rules catrring to feelgood or hyper competitive play.

>>44624483
It'd be better if it wasn't lands specifically, considering all the alternative sources of mana that exist like the signets and the rocks like sol ring and dynamo engine.

Card draw off creatures would be solid if it was a green ramp deck that only cared about casting big things, like the Kruphix list I have going that's all about generating mana and expiring it to build a bank and dump it all on big things like Omniscience, the Titans, and other tediously expensive things. Anything that would be strictly anything else wouldn't work for it and it'd feel wasted otherwise, so it's a no-go for decks that prefer cheating things out in their own magical ways.

It feels like it was made to bring green ramp back into the forefront in Standard, but disregards the fact that green ramp only cares about lands 76% of the time.
>>
>>44624382
Not really, the rules are pretty decently lax.
>>
>>44624382

You have "slow play" rules in tournaments, and taking ages to tutor is under that umbrella. You can try to bother a judge to keep an eye on your opponent.

In casual settings what you can do is to try to enforce a maximum time limit for library searching, say 1 minute, and if the player doesn't comply he gets penalized (third time he does that in a match he automatically loses, or something).

>>44626061
What they hell is a non-drain card and how do you define it to include Athreos?

>>44626208
Drain as in "opponent loses one life, I gain one life."

Blood Artist
Drana's Emissary
any Extort card
Palace Siege

You know, the whole gimmick of Karlov. I'm looking for other types of card to put in the deck that do different things to fill out the remainder of the deck.
>>
>>44626061
Sunscorch regent is an autoinclude for karlov, and exquisite blood gets you value out of everything
>>
>>44626499
Sunscorch Regent looks cool. I'll make sure to pick one up. I already have Sanguine Bond. Is it wrong of me to also run Exquisite Blood?
>>
>>44625462
I tried him out. While I absolutely love his effect, I always found myself winning through a combo unrelated to him in the slightest and using his giant dudes as blockers. Only one time I have ever won with his Zombies was due to Walk the Aeons Buyback at the very end of the game.

If anything, Archetype of Imagination/Wonder are must-haves. Evasion is needed for the zombies.

I have a Wrexial/Lazav deck that still uses the good doctor. He has done work whenever he comes out and I personally think he's criminally underrated.
>>
>>44626566
Honestly if you don't want to have the combo sitting around blood is probably better. Gives you triggers when your opponents beat each other up

So I've been brainstorming this girl and finding cards that work well with her. Aside from small 1~3cmc cards that cantrip, I found the following for her:
>Possibility Storm
>Mind's Desire
>Mizzix's Mastery
>Spelltwine
>Eterium-Horn Sorcerer
>Chancellor of the Spires
>Counterlash
>Epic Experiment
>Jace's Mindseeker
>Mindclaw Shaman/Reversal of Fortune
>Stolen Goods
>Talent of the Telepath
>Spellweaver Volute
>Knowledge Exploitation

With all of these cards, I know the theme I'm going for. Question is: What are some game-enders in Izzet colors?
>>
>>44626672
I thought it was one trigger for First Strike, and another for normal attacks. Are you saying that I get a Karlov trigger for each creature that hits an opponent this way? That's crazy.
>>
>>44626696
Storm seems like a decent fit. You could always try going voltron lite with diviners wand or just burn people with Sphinx-bone
>>
>>44626354
Karlov's ability strictly deals with life gain.

So non-drain cards you could consider
Soul's Attendant
Soul Warden
Suture Priest
Pristine Talisman
Well of Lost Dreams
Archangel of Thune
Patron of the Kitsune
Felidar Sovereign
Sunbond
Wall of Reverence
Righteous Cause
Weathered Wayfarer
Knight of the White Orchid
That one other card that searches a Plains and is decent
Cabal Coffers
Urborg
Karma
Stern Judge
Renounce
Planar Birth
Ankh of Mishra
Healer of the Pride
Lightning Greaves
Swiftfoot Boots
Whispersilk Cloak
Wrath of God
Armageddon
Skullclamp

Like seriously nigger
>>
>>44626717
It gets out of hand very quickly. My karlov deck is built around getting life out of absolutely anything that happens, and he pretty routinely hits 40+ counters. My record was well over a hundred
>>
>>44626696
Insurrection
Firemind's Foresight Combo
Storm
Try Think Twice
>>44626721
I would say Melek and Mizzix are better for storm, I think she fits better in an aggro/tempo shell with stuff like Nivix Cyclops, Wee Dragonauts, and Kiln Fiend. The stream of card draw lets you keep tempo over multiple players in a larger game, and you can tap out to drop her early before you need to start watching out for game-ending threats.
>>
>>44626753
And let us not forget the ultimate jank, Darkest Hour/Absolute Grace.
>>
>>44626717
Reminder that righteous confluence is three life gain triggers if you select it three times, so for seven mana you can have an emergency exile from a fresh karlov
>>
>>44626354
It's pretty vital that you have enchantment exile effects. Karlov shuts down hard to any life gain blocking effect, pretty much all of which are enchantments
>>
>>44625142
Bump because I still have no idea
>>
>>44626944
In monowhy definitely. Card Draw is its largest weakness.

I've been pondering how I wanted to build her, too. Spells that cast spells is where I was leaning, too.

Diluvian, Mindclaw, Talent of the Telepath, Reversal of Fortune, Spelltwine, Jaces Mindseeker, Knowledge Exploitation, Minds Desire, ect.

Cheap flashback like Snappy, Deep Anal, Looting, Recoup, Think Twice, maybe other stuff that's cute like Alter Reality.

Epic Experiment, Etherhorn Sorcerer, Gitaxian Probe, Brainstorm, and other free/cheap shit.

I think it would work pretty well.

So ive been playing this chick, and shes amazing. I was never the green mage until I met her. Just recurring fleshbags seems insane most of the time. The best part about her is she feel fair. You wont win the game with an infinite combo, no random craterhoof+tokens (most of the time), just good old grindy magic.
>>
>>44631513
Again, this is why you always ask your opponents if it's okay to rearrange your graveyard when you're playing an eternal format. Even if you have nothing that cares about your graveyard order, and even if THEY have nothing that cares about their opponents' graveyard, they could have something like Corpse Dance which you might end up casting off a Commandeer or Diluvian Primordial, in which case your graveyard order does matter.

Better safe than sorry.

A solid 75% commander IMO, strong but fucked over by Grafdigger's Cage etc
>>
>>44631848
Pack removal. For fuck's sake, it's a 2 color deck that has green in it. caustic caterpillar, acidic slime, viridian zealot all have strong synergy with the commander. Not to mention the generally strong removal that most green decks ought to run, like nature's claim and beast within. Golgari charm, even!

If your Meren deck is getting screwed by enchantment/artifact based graveyard hate, it's your own darned fault, generally speaking.
>>
>>44632123
Yeah that's the point
I was talking about it being a good 75% commander, do you know what that means?
>>
>>44632123
If you say so. Better hope nobody around you starts packing RiP though
>>
>>44632217
Yes, it means you're from Reddit. Maybe you should stay there.
>>
>>44632217
A commander can be 75% without having the strategy fucked by one good piece of hate. You can have a solid, well-rounded deck that isn't overpowered and isn't playing all out, but still has the capacity to stay in the game through adversity.

>>44632218
Rest in Peace shouldn't kill a Meren deck. If it does, then you're putting too heavy a focus on your graveyard. Use your graveyard for advantage, but you shouldn't be boned if your graveyard gets exiled; there's simply too many effects that do exactly that.
>>
>>44632218
Same thing applies as anything else. Removal gets rid of it, no one mentioned Abrupt Decay even though it hits just about everything a GY deck needs to worry about, but you also shouldn't overextend. It's like the aggro deck that plays 2 creatures, gets wrathed, and is stuck in top deck mode because he's out of gas. You can get away with it a lot more in EDH than in Legacy or modern. It's multiplayer, so you can play the long game a lot easier.
>>
>>44631848
Grafdigger's Cage is weaksauce, precisely because its a temporary solution that's fucked over by all the enchantment removal everyone runs.

You need permanent solutions to graveyards, like RIP, Nihil Spellbomb, and Rakdos Charm.

Literally every color can do it, from colorless sources like Tormod's Crypt to off-beat solutions like Bazaar of Wonders and Burn Away.
>>
>>44632558
>Burn Away

So underrated it hurts. Very rarely has burn away disappointed me when I've cast it. Best part is that Burn Away doesn't even have to kill the creature. As long as it does that turn, they exile their GY.
>>
>>44625493

Except it's better than caged sun ya dingus
>>
>>44632558
Bojuka Bog a best. It doesn't even use up a deck slot.

Rest in Peace is technically the most powerful piece of graveyard hate you can get but most decks don't like exiling their own graveyards. Even if you're playing something like Anafenza hatebears, you like to be able to use your graveyard.
>>
>>44633084

Its a better mirrari's wake, but by the time you cast it you already have enough dakka...I mean mana. So its a bit worse, but the two abilities do synergize. You have the mana to cast creatures, and those creatures in turn draw you cards that you can also cast because you have a ton of mana.

I'll be good in rampy green decks, like Prosh, Marath, or Maelstrom Wanderer.

>>44633385
Not that anon, but it would make it that much harder for your opponents creatures to get through since you can spread their already diminished damage around.

>>44633457
You have Gisela out, you're already winning in combat, this artifact is just win-more and it's not even doing it well. It's a bad card anon. You're probably not going to need to multi-block anything your opponents have if Gisela is out, and if you're worried about getting blocked by multiple creatures then even something shit like Yuan Shao would be better.

They started making a style and guideline for artist to follow somewhere around the Urza storyline block when the creators started getting serious about magic to basically establish they don't want shit card art. Over the years artists had a loose relationship with the card creators where the creators say
"Yo, so I got this reanimate card. I'm gonna call it Corpse Dance, ummmm, make it look cool."
"Yo bro, I gotcha."
Years go on and now wizards want to make their fanfiction commission to be perfect to reflect what's happening in the not Avengers storyline.
Now wizards are too tight on artists where you get more like this,
"Hey man what if I drew this?"
>"MUH JACE! MUH NISSA! MORE PLANESWALKERS!"
"Uhm, I'm sorry, but I can't really do that without making it look chessy. You are silly."
>"REEEE, MAKE IT LIKE I WROTE IT IN 25 PAGE LOREBOOK! I AM SILLY!"
Now the only people left are people who are experimenting at git gud and are doing it for salary work and for a resume. They really don't care to push things to look cool with an already grocery list of demand on them

As to your deck, it looks like you have a pretty strong start. I'd add a few more creatures that destroy target artifact/enchantment/nonland permanent, but as is it already looks pretty solid.

Thoughs on this for eldrazi processors? A single tap lets you get at least 2-3 exiles easy for early/continuous processing, but all of it is face down so youre doing it blind. Has a kind of neat effect if your table lets you hit 7 mana without blowing it up, but if they do youre stuck with some unretrievable cards.

It looks pretty good. I think you should move Brago, Zegana, and Resto to the main board. In my RUG bounce, i recently included Myr Battlesphere and it's been working wonders. As for stuff from the new set, Thought-Knot Seer seems pretty dumb in bounce decks.
>>
>>44633880
I'm not going to assign a number to it. There are a few issues I see.

First of all, you have a ton of cards that are redundant with your commander. What do you need Cloudshift and Ghostly Flicker for? Do you really need a card that does nothing except for what your commander already does? You have access to your commander at all times. Build like it.

The other issue is that you don't seem to have too much payoff in your deck. Your enablers are strong, but ultimately, what are you going to do with your flickering? Get basic lands with the elves? Tap down creatures with Dungeon Geists?

Look for cards that generate value with their ETB/LTB triggers. Thragtusk is a good one. Stonehorn Dignitary is also another good one.

For starters, cut Mnemonic Wall, Kazandu Tuskcaller, Deceiver Exarch. From there, cut the cards that are redundant with your commander and then add in cards that generate value from being flickered or that support your commander rather than being redundant with him.
>>
>>44634497
I'm not entirely sold on Brago but I was thinking about swapping Kazandu Tuskcaller and Wood Elves for the other 2. Thanks

>>44634556
Because Roon is 5 mana with a 2 mana ability which he can use once per turn and which he can't use if I haven't got either set of boots for haste.

That was one of my main concerns, which is why I'm considering things like Armada Wurm and Geist-Honored Monk.

Yeah no shit mate.

You're only telling me cards to cut and providing no suggestions on what to put in.

Except when you don't. Also, Roon's ability costs 2G and returns things at the end step. Cloudstep and Ghostly Flicker don't even do exactly the same thing. And even if they did, redundancy is a GOOD thing because it means your deck is more consistent.

It's rare that people are looking for suggestions as to what to add rather than what to take out. You even already have a maybeboard. Maybe start there? Armada Wurm and Geist-Honored Monk would certainly be good additions to your deck.

>>44634762
If you're in a position where cards like Cloudshift and Ghostly Flicker are relevant, then you've already lost the game and those two cards aren't going to save you.

If things are going well, then cards that are redundant with your commander are, well... redundant. There's no point in playing cards like that unless they will actually rescue your game.

Brago is an example of a good redundancy. He can come in and take the place of Roon when Roon is unavailable. In fact, he's better at doing Roon's thing than Roon is, and is basically the deck's hidden commander.

Ghostly Flicker, on the other hand, won't do anything to help you when you can't get to your commander. It's a one-off flicker that will be a dead draw when things are going well and won't save you when things aren't.
>>
>>44634857
>If you're in a position where cards like Cloudshift and Ghostly Flicker are relevant, then you've already lost the game and those two cards aren't going to save you.
So, what, you just concede whenever your commander gets removed and you don't have enough mana to re-cast it?

It doesn't sound to me like you're very good at commander. One more time with feeling, redundancy is a good thing. Hell, have you even considered the fact that either one of those cards might be able to save Roon if he were Arrested?

>>44634709
Anon, I suggest taking out Ghostly Flicker and replacing it with Feeling of Dread. It targets only one thing at a time, but it has flashback. IMO, it gives you more bang for your buck.

Nahiri is now Kalemne with no regrets. God damn freight train.

Chandra is now Jeska. Made it before I went to bed, so it needs to be tweaked until I find my sweet spot for voltron/control.

Nylea and Ezuri aren't working out.

I really want Nylea to work, and I think I need to reign in the monsters and find a better curve.

>So, what, you just concede whenever your commander gets removed and you don't have enough mana to re-cast it?
No, but you should play cards that actually allow you to recover rather than cards that will almost always be dead draws. If Roon has been arrested, there are a large number of things that will do a better job at getting your back into the game - Krosan Grip is a staple in Bant, and Path to Exile is a strong removal spell in addition to being able to send your own commander back to the command zone.

Anon, you keep using "redundant" like it's a bad thing. Communications networks have redundancies. Technology corporations have redundant databases. Infrastructure everywhere have redundancies because they make things more consistent. In Magic the Gathering, consistent decks are better decks.

Hell, as I've already pointed out, and that >>44635547 expanded on, having those cards in there can frequently do things other than what Roon can do. The sheer utility of the specific cards we're talking about here is very useful in a Roon deck. If you need to, you can use them to flash enemy creatures and remove their counters, flash Roon to use his ability a second time, or save any creature you control from removal after Roon's been tapped. All of those are functions that are not precisely redundant functions of those cards, but all of them are very utilitarian uses for them.

Okay, finished my list for my Newzuri faerie-focused deck. I played two games tonight and one went terribly against the boros player with all the swords/jitte, pillowfort protections, and repeat combat phases with double strike.

The second game, however, I beat him soundly + the Meren player because the white removal was used on Meren before I started putting things out. I realized that I accidentally had an infinite experience counter combo with Ezuri + Deadeye + Cloud of Faeries. And made my creatures into 1-hit killers. There wasn't an automatic win though, until I managed to draw some unblockable evasion cards as they could otherwise generate endless chump blocks. So we didn't feel like it was too dirty.

I actually just played him today, great fun, with the added bonus of mill AND it exiles the creatures you choose to use, so no graveyard recursion as well.

None of those decks are actually good at expressing yourself. All they have in common is that they are tier 1.
Here. Think of the first deck you ever built in magic. I don't care how jank it is. Do you remember it? What did you build and why?

Holy shit. I forgot. I gotta make an anefenza mill deck. I usually make a deck based on any janky shit I've ever seen, but I forgot my mono white mill deck I made. shig.

Anyways, yeah. How do you like to play? Big stompy, reanimate, tribal, are all different ways to make yourself unique to the next guy. What makes you have more fun? Reanimating griseldaddy on turn 2 or just bolting the shit out of someone while countering their shit. I always liked finding new ways to change the game for myself and explored plenty on different avenues for magic.

>>44640657
Nah mang. You do not need more than one field wipe. I usually keep just one crux of fate which i usually only cast immediately after Meren hits the dust. For almost all other times you should be able to outvalue your opponents.

Perhaps the reason you like finding new ways to play the game is that you don't know how to play it to its fullest extent yet. You're still in that naive stage where there are still things to learn. Most of us are beyond that.

uh, no. I've been playing for years and have played and played against attrition, infect, burn, memerange, hard control, locks, aggro, tokens, and have played stasis, stax, and mill. I would consider myself an accomplished player by early 2014.
You are so sure that you know it all, but how can you know what you don't know. I look for more so I find more. Can you find what you aren't looking for, simply by sitting in a rut and playing the same game over and over again.

I only keep one field wipe in Meren and Alesha, because it costs me too much to recast and get my tempo back if I forcibly wipe the field. In any other deck yeah I'll keep two or three, unless it's a control build that doesn't really need my commander which is a rare case.

There's a difference between using a combo kill and being a dedicated combo deck you ingrate. What other way does a U/R control deck have to decisively close out the game? Commander Damage with Nin, I don't think so. Swing with all those blue beatstick creatures? Nope. Combo just happens to be the easiest way to end a multiplayer game.

I have a Sasaya

Where I am trying to benefit everyone and let them play cards until I win with some ridiculous amount of mana and tokens or lands.
And a Mayael

Which needs more DRAGONS.
Both decks I feel are winning way too often and I wonder how they can be stopped more effectively so I can help my group have a smarter approach to EDH.

Are these what you could consider 75% decks or should I change things up?

So I'm still kind of new to the whole EDH scene. I have a few decks, but would like to build some more.

The problem I run into is, when I get an idea for a deck, I go to Tapped Out to throw something together and before I know it, I'm way over the 100 cards limit.

Any tips for cutting down?

Draw some test hands, think about what cards you are happy to see in your opener, what cards you're happy to see with maybe 5-7 lands, and what cards you are happy too see lategame. If you have the luxury print out proxies of the whole list and find someone to playtest with and do a similar thing.
>>
>>44643535
What always helps me is

>decide what the overall strategy of the deck is
>cut any cards that don't directly contribute to said strategy
>if the deck is still too large, take out whatever cards are the least effective at achieving your strategy

Tldr you have to learn to properly identify and remove jank.

In EDH its really easy to suffer from "Oh holy shit this card looks awesome" syndrome.

I get it sort of. I think its a awkward mix of casuals git-gud and pro's slowing down. The casuals are trying to imitate the git gud by playing combo decks too, but haven't really sharpened their fangs and the pros also don't want to be mean either.

I'm a guy who will not counter your commander unless you are extremely dangerous out of the gates, like Rafiq being casted and lightning greaves out is a no, but a simple Krenko should like a turn. It's wierd. Go back. If you were nice enough to take out blood moon, keep trying to help those fools figure themselves and the game out, because their meta probably is in a flux

Thankfully, my playgroup has a pretty big pain threshold for "degenerate" strategies.

You look like exactly the type of player I'd like to have at my table. 200$ is the perfect sweet spot for a deck that's good but not oppressive, and your commander choices are varied and interesting: you didn't go for the obvious best decks in the format, you went for a theme instead.

between $200 and $400 is the perfect spot for good decks that don't just wipe the floor with people

>>
>>44643979
Something similar happened to me. Went to play EDH at my LGS for the first, I'd been warned in advance that people were tryhard as fuck, we're talking Mana Drain and Force of Will in all their blue decks. My Aurelia wasn't going to cut it so I quickly threw together a Maelstrom Wanderer list on a budget. I show up at a table where people are playing Karador, Niv-Mizzle and Omnath, introduce myself, explain that it's a new deck that's still being tuned.

I go on to win at a fairly reasonable turn 5 after minimal interactions (my Food Chain got Force of Willed). Players go "Nice deck anon, now go away while we finish this game". I have to sit out the rest of the game while they durdle to their own combo kills in their 3000$ decks.

I don't think it's a matter of our decks being "oppressive" in the metas we played in, the issue is that folks at an LGS typically hate losing to the new guy. Next few games I showed up with my Aurelia, I won a small handful of games and they were still pissed because new player with Aurelia beating them was bullshit and Insurrection should be banned. They got mad at a Final Fortune win and one guy argued that if I'm going to play that bullshit then he's going to start running Time Walk in his decks, no kidding.
>>
>>44645287
There's a guy at my playgroup with an Oloro deck. He used to be the "fuck if I want to play with him in this pod" type and most of the times I was the only one that played with him because a-I don't have much opportunity to play and 2-trying to keep EDH alive.
He built a Daretti last year but had Mindslaver lock and Blightsteel turn 3-kinda stuff and eventually dismantled it. He claims the Oloro deck is now more fair, despite keeping Omniscence/Enter the Infinite combo and playing it up as soon as he feels hurt. On the last time we played the GAAIV guy took his commander back when he was Treachery-d and that triggered him. He had the combo pieces since turn 1 but alleged he wanted to kill through battle damage with Colonnade. He has Teferi and Knowledge Pool to lock the table and kill with that Sphinx who turns lifetotals in 10 too, all stuff that takes too long to execute.
>>
>>44645287
Yes, I have a friend like that, plays Damia a lot. Nothing but degenerate decks actually, his most played are Damia, Derevi, Sharuum, Riku. He built some fun decks over time but always took them apart after losing a couple games: Daxos, Grimgrin, Nahiri, Glissa, etc. If it doesn't win reliably and consistently, it's not worth playing for him.

He doesn't have fun just by playing a good game, not even by winning, he only has fun if he's dominating the game by turn 7. He whines endlessly about mass land destruction, even though I remind him he's the reason I play MLD in the first place.

Back when EDH was starting to really kick off before the first precons my FLGS had a pretty solid scene for it. Not too much cutthroat, no whiners. But shortly after those first precons a couple guys came along with $3k+ decks and turned the local scene into an arms race to just not lose when they popped into a group.

EDH died here pretty quick following that and only recently has been seeing any attention.

many players are just walking salt mines that will use any excuse to explain why losing wasn't their fault. that's why most of them play EDH exclusively, they can't stand getting steamrolled by either better players or just unfavorable match ups in competitive formats and not having any excuse to fall back on except "omg jund isop ban omg tron is op ban omg bloom is op ban omg fish isop ban"
>>
>>44645962
I always have an excuse for losing, but I try to always make that excuse "I made a mistake" or "my deck needs more work".

complaining for 30 minutes that memory plunder for wrath of god for an instant speed board wipe is "stupid bs" and "should be banned" and "I WOULD HAVE WON IF IT WASN'T FOR STUPID BULLSHIT LIKE MEMORY PLUNDER" is a baddie excuse.

Have you ever considered that you were simply outplayed?

Derevi is kind of bullshit, though.

In the 99, Meren is good with any deck that consistently has creatures in the graveyard. She is outstanding in the 99 for any deck with a sac theme. She's good, it's why she costs $10 despite being a casual-format-only card that's still in print.
>>
>>44646225
That's a good point actually. I sort of have to wonder if she wouldn't be a nice fit in Anafenza. Even though I have no real sac outlets to speak of, I do tend to fill up my graveyard a lot.

Anafenza a qt. How does she play? I've heard a lot of people talking about hatebears, but how does that translate to a 99-card singleton format in the first place?

I feel like a deck with her ghost version would be either bonkers or very underwhelming. Has anybody tried that?
>>
>>44646366
Monowhite a shit in EDH, don't even bother. As for how Abzan Anafenza plays, I personally play her as a low-cost beatdown deck full of tutors to get the proper hatebear for every situation, efficient removal and graveyard shenanigans to grind out longer games. Here's the list, bear in mind that this is built on a budget.

>>44646756
While we're at it, please rate or give advice. I know there are a bunch of other anons playing Anafenza so I'd like to hear their thoughts on this list.
>>
>>44646756

Idk why people say mono white is bad in edh, not true except if you compare to tippy top tier decks

looking at your deck list, you and your playgroup are clearly not at a high enough power level to take advantage of mono whites "weakness"

Jalira looks pretty fun with copy and untap artifacts/abilites.

Is it better to built her around ETB/Dies effects with a few ETB-value beatsticks or just go for token flooding with only a handful of actual but huge creatures and Eldrazi?

I tried the first just now and it seems to work, though it's a bit slow since copying the ability is needed to get a board presence. Eventually ended up breaking XMage and the ability put every card onto the battlefield, including Sorceries and Instants.
>>
>>44647241
Mono white isn't necessarily bad, it's just the worst. Objectively. It's playable, but given equal budget, deckbuilding skills and player aptitude, it's always going to lag behind other colors.

I'm playing hatebears in a meta with 3000$ tuned Derevi and Karador lists, but nice assumptions regardless anon.

MLD is only a problem for those "let me jerk my hand" decks and a proper counter against those. Winter Orb is almost the definition of no-fun and doesn't let anyone play the damn game anymore.

I have yet to find a person that honestly thinks MLD is worse than Winter Orb that doesn't run it themselves.

This is my list: http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/08-01-16-jalira-master-polymorphist-edh/

I run token flooding with stealing effects and a few ETB-value beaters. The deck is super fun to play.

>>44649532
Nah, I goofed while using the collage maker thing, that spot would be filled by Anya now. I do have two Stitcher decks(one is mass mill, the other is packed with lots of blue fatties) and two Pharika decks(one is enchantress, the other is just goodstuff.dek) though.

>Have Bosh deck.
>People constantly shutting me down before I can do anything because "It's an artifact deck."
I just want to have fun. Holy shit. Also, what are some good cards/artifacts to throw in with Bosh? Generally my game plan is to get mirrorworks down and start cloning artifacts then throw the clones or use them as security for more important artifacts like Mycosynth Lattice or unwinding clock. I remember once I made someone scoop because I made four Blightsteels in one go with mirrorworks, and sculpting steel.
>>
>>44650213
Yeah, looks like a fun deck.

Have you thought of running Aura Thief in it? It's pretty decent in Jalira, as you can get it out easily and can sac it yourself when you feel like grabbing the enchantments.
>>
>>44647241
>looking at your deck list, you and your playgroup are clearly not at a high enough power level to take advantage of mono whites "weakness"
What's wrong with that decklist? Anything specific? Or are you just going "your deck's bad" as an ad hominem attack to support your argument that monowhite somehow isn't the worst color in the format?

Turns out I was right, he was sitting on Mike, but couldn't play it because of Jeska, and sigarda had a path. I missed played with Jeska.

I already have Sharuum, Mimeoplasm and Ghave. What Red commander I should use that has a different strategy. I'm thinking about Zedruu, but I don't want to use another commander from the premade decks.

I have won most of the games I've played with him, even with 4 players. Unspeakable symbol is an auto-include.
Here's my deck if you want to check it out, but it seems it has 1 extra card in it, which I still got to find to fix. http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/infect-and-masochism/
