Thread Question: Have you ever run a Commander for Vorthos reasons?

Worked on a Volrath Phyrexian deck for a while, but it was lacking in good Phyrexian cards on theme to prevent it from just being mono-black goodstuff. Might revisit it sometime soon.

>>55038381
which is exactly what that card needs, it being a 30 dollar card is massively better than it being 50 dollar card

>>
>>55038443
except its not because its a strictly worse card, wizards should be reprinting the shit out of of more expensive cards to make them available to the players. because wizards refuses to reprint anything of value ever they continue to climb to the point where a single reprinting doesnt solve the problem. if they were reprinted more frequently you would not be seeing 50 dollar cavern of souls. wizards is putting a bandaid on the problem and not fixing it

HOU was a pretty good set, Standard and Limited-wise. From a casual standpoint too but that doesn't matter since every set does.

Who /cheatsinEDH/ here?

I have done it many times by using a little more than 99 cards in my deck because it is too hard to make cuts
>>
>>55038939
I cheated for the longest time by not realizing you get extra sleeves when you buy a pack of a hundred so a couple of my decks were 100+ cards.
I also almost never announce my triggers.
>>
>>55038939
Using more cards puts you at a slight disadvantage though, so it's hardly cheating.
>>
>>55038939
The number of times I've accidentally had 100 cards in my 99 is... kind of embarrassing.
>>
>>55038333
I always try doing that, though not a completely vorthos-minded decklist as my meta never puts flavor before function and not being able to impact the game sucks
>>
>>55038939
When I play vs my younger brother and/or gf I often shuffle their decks because their hands are so small, and when I get the opportunity i shuffle their sol rings on top to give Thema a good start.

I used to run Nicol Bolas a few years back with some decent flavor, but that deck ended up getting dismantled rather quickly because my meta also started to power creep hard and old Nicky B just couldn't keep up.

>>55039223
I wish they'd had the balls to print a Nicol Bolas that could be your commander in the Bolas Archenemy set.

Made a tangle themed deck with the big guy as my commander, using all the cards with quotes of him and all the wurms from the tangle. Ironically drew despite its low powerlevel great amounts of hate because of Vorinclex as the commander, I turned it in a monogreen Selvala ramp monogreen big creatures. Vori is still tutor target No. 1.

>>55039281
Vorinclex is just one of those cards that people hate, and for good reason.

Same thing happens with many powerful commanders. You can sit down with some janky deck but if the commander is really annoying or powerful you will get targetted anyways.

He's pretty good if you can get him out and make his stick, also hope you have crop rotation in hand at all times to fetch homeward path with because the guy is a prime Bribery target.

That's an oddly specific scenario

>>55038939

I tend to ignore colors once I get to like 8 mana and just start casting shit, probably resulting in a few games where I illegally cast some shit

Isamaru, Samurai Pupper Voltron. I make him a Samurai on field with Sensei Goldentail, give him one of the Katana Equipments, and just have fun with it. Plus, I always have my Commander out first.
>>
>>55039677
For sure, I've just never seen it at my tables. Then again most blue decks running a card that expensive are just playing Solitaire.
>>
>>55039700
I play with a bunch of oldfags that got the card way back when it was cheap.
>>
>>55039700
But Anon, Bribery is cheaper than Vorinclex.
>>
>Bribery
>expensive
It's 20 bucks guys, I know that's a touch high for a chunk of cardboard, but it's not unrealistic that a decent amount of blue decks buy and run it. It's not even really an solitaire card either, I'd actually say it's more Timmy since you pay 5 mana and get the best creature in any deck, and deprive its owner of it
>>
>>55039722
I'd buy a few copies if I could, copy it a few times on the stack and nueter some of the green fatty decks I'm plagued with
>>
>>55039835
And then die horribly because Homeward path is a thing every deck with green can tutor for with no effort, I've had enough people die to the Blightsteel they Bribery'd out of my deck to force people to have at least one counter up whenever they Bribery.
>>
>>55039832
That's why i haven't seen it before. The blue players I see that's spending that much doesn't build interactive decks.
They pay Solitaire until they combo.
There's a reason I haven't played with that group in a while

Not even close to true.

What kinds of planeswalkers do you run without solely using them for doubling season purposes?
>>
>>55039862
>>55039832
Never seen a Homeward Path make the 99. Most people have 'better' things to do with their Utility Land allocation than screw over a fairly corner case strategy

On the other hand, it's fairly uncommon to see a Bribery either. Price does have something to do with it. I and most of the folks I know are "whole deck budget" types. Running a 20 dollar card is hardly out of the question, but only a few of them will show in any given deck and especially in 3+ color decks that blow a hefty chunk of their budget on Shocks and other mana base needs, Bribery doesn't tend to get considered the kind of effect that's worth the price.

I remember when it was considered a fucking EDH staple, though. But that was back when people played EDH with more of an eye to Timmy so five mana was a fucking deal to nab a Darksteel Colossus (Or Eldrazi Titan I guess, but I'm pretty sure Bribery had fallen out of favor by the time they released)
>>
is there a Bribery/Acquire for enchantments or lands? It seems like an obvious thing they should print eventually.
>>
>>55039945
We play under MODO 1v1 rules, which means Leovold isn't banned, but Sol Ring is.

At the risk of starting a dumb pointless argument, MODO rules are much better even for multiplayer. 30 life means aggro now matters in the format.

>>55039927
I bought a Gaea's Cradle a few weeks ago for $200. I'm glad I have it, I'm just having some incredible cognitive dissonance about the thought that I now own a piece of cardboard supposedly worth a small family's weekly grocery bill, and it is primarily worth this much because the greedy assholes who created it have sworn to never produce more copies of it.
at least the guy who sold it to me bundled it with a Survival of the Fittest after I haggled him
>>
>>55039918
This card always reminds me what a shitfest kamigawa manacostwise was
>>
>>55039955
Same here. In the group I played with 5 years ago, Bribery was a total staple in most of our blue decks. It very often was a 5 mana Blightsteel Colossus or at least some other Timmy monster. I don't know how much it cost but I would guess 5$ or less. In my current group I've never seen it played.

RL cards will eventually be reprinted. with the say WotC is headed they wont have a game people are buying in the near future and will reverse the RL decision in some sort of masters set that costs 500 a box msrp and the prices will tank

nothing lasts forever, not even the RL. it is an inevitability
>>
>>55040093
I would literally prefer to have Leovold and everything on the list unbanned if I could get Sol Ring and other fast mana/mana rocks banned. Strong cards can be unfun, but not as unfun as some random asshole getting an unfair advantage because he got his rocks first.
>>
>>55040024
Kamigawa wins hard on flavor, but man did card costs suck. They also played it way too safe with Splice and some of the other mechanics.
>>
>>55040165
Well obviously, but the question is how long it'll take. I'm thinking it'll be about 5 or 10 years before they finally decide to quit fucking up so much (relentlessly pushing Standard and fucking over eternal formats, trying to make planeswalkers and hamfisted diversity cool, burning money on an MMO no one will play, etc, etc)

If you mean to play multiplayer (Aka EDH as it was intended) turn back from this course of action entirely. Counterspell Tribal will never win against more than one opponent. If you're playing 1v1, that's a different story.

You do NOT have enough mana. Industry Standard is between 35 and 40 land with 5-15 ramp effects depending on your access, needs, and curve. 35 land, 10-12 ramp usually does the job. You have 34 land, and a mere 4 ramp effects even under the most generous interpretation of the term (that is, counting your commander and Curious Homunculus which, as a dork, is more fragile than rocks or land ramp.) Get yourself Sol Ring, Sky Diamond, Mind Stone, Mana Vault if the 15 bucks isn't too much for your budget, Worn Powerstone, Hedron Archive, Eye of Ramos, Everflowing Chalice... basically anything mana-positive and/or cost 2- that comes in untapped, plus some better high cost options

If they're in serious financial trouble then how will they afford all of the legal costs of being sued?

Get over yourselves, the cards are collector's items and will become more expensive. You've got a better chance hoping for an economic crasg that causes people to start selling their collections. Prices will drop again when that happens and if you have the money to spare you can stock up then.

I love how convinced reserved list defenders are that they/card retailers will be able to sue Wizards if they ever abolish the list. First, it's not even a legally binding contract, it's effectively just a promise that was never legally notarized. So any case for a lawsuit already starts off on flimsy footing. Next, you have to realize that Wizards and Hasbro have a massive legal department and deep coffers, so there's no way a bunch of collectors and card resellers could muster a sufficient defense. Finally, the profits from finally being able to use those reserved cards to sell packs/precons would almost certainly outweigh any potential settlements, if the detractors are able to win a few cases.
To summarize, it's not a question of if they'll ever repeal it, but when: and when is when they fall on "hard times" or at least a few quarters of slimmer profits.

I only have 20 years and the history of the Chronicles debacle behind my position. What do you have, your wish that cards were cheaper?
>>
>>55040644
The reserved list is not nor ever has been legally binding.
>>
>>55040892
Wotc has proven again and again that they won't reprint NON-reserved list cards to bring their prices down. If 10 years have passed and they haven't reprinted Tarmogoyf in a preconstructed product (which would be guaranteed to sell) then how can you think they'll do it with the RL cards?
>>
>>55040921
Funny you should mention the Chronicles debacle, since that lets me make the point that Magic is a much bigger game that's more secure in its market share and playerbase than it was back then, which is even further evidence that Wizards is now much more capable of laughing off collectorfags if they come around whining this time, since it's no longer dependent on them to keep the game alive.
Also I hate to bust your bubble, but I already own most of the cards on the list. Not everyone who disagrees with you is a poorfag, Schlomo.
>>
>>55040921
Chronicles was 20 years ago and MTG was a very different game back then. You are retarded for using this example.
>>
>>55040981
>(((Schlomo)))
Woah, cool it. I'm not an "mtg investor" but I don't agree with your analysis or expect them to start reprinting the reserved list any time soon. Wotc likes the game being expensive and there are many signs of this.
>>
>>55041030
Well this exact same conversation has been taking place the whole time and all that has happened is the reserved list became stronger as they closed loopholes like reprinting with different borders or as foils. I think it's evidence vs wishful thinking and if I had my choice there would be cheap versions of all cards available. I play with people using proxied decks and it is great. That's the way to enjoy the game and ignore the RL.

Let's just recap: I'm not trying to argue that the Reserved List WILL be abolished soon, I'm just arguing that the possibility is there and legal, and muh lawsuitfags don't really have a leg to stand on. Of course I don't expect Wizards to make sensible or consumer-friendly business decisions until their profits start hurting or the community as a whole is in an uproar, they're on a similar level of shittiness as GW or Blizzard.

They actually do but they call them "playtest" cards instead of proxies. I still call them proxies by habit and Vintage with 10-15 proxies is often cheaper (depends on the deck) than Legacy. Stores in the Northeast, Ohio, and the Bay Area still host Vintage tournaments regularly. If you go on to mtgtop8 or tcdecks and check the Vintage results, virtually all of those tournaments allowed at least 10 proxies.

That shit is highly important if anyone you're playing against has any amount of reactive cards.
Too many triggers on the stack can all go horribly awry by just nudging a creature before they even start going off.

Hanna is pretty solid going by my experience. Tons of neat things for you to recur, but you're gonna want some kind of protection to mitigate the removal she tends to draw. I don't have any point of reference for Sen Triplets unfortunately, as I've actually never seen a Triplets deck in action.

because they dont like getting their stuff stolen essentially. its funny because the triplet are slow and clunky as fuck and basically fold to 2 kills spells cause esper fucking sucks at ramp. they did get significantly more powerful with the mana change but at the same time its still a do nothing deck once the triplets are dead and that is an incredibly easy thing to accomplish

Mox Opal, mana vault, Grim Monolith, signets, thrown dynamo, gilded Lotus, etc will make huge mana wayyyyy faster than green ramp, it's not even remotely close

Artifact mana usually comes in untapped, unlike land ramp, and doesn't need haste unlike mana dorks.

Also green being forced to run the best artifact ramp on account of it being better than green's ramp is not an argument in favor of green ramp being better than artifact mana

The only artifact ramp better than green's ramp are ones that go mana plus which green rarely does, so sol ring, mana crypt, grim monolith, and maybe mana vault. Then the generic moxen if you dont mind the card disadvantage. Even at higher cmcs like Gilded Lotus's five, green has Hour of Promise searching any two lands

We have a house rule allowing this if someone's taking an extremely long time, like a combo player trying to see if they can combo, or if you're losing badly and want to concede soon you can check it out to see if it's even worth going into the next turn.

If you don't know that, that's probably a big part of your issue. She's frail and offers no sort of protection whatsoever. Every EDH deck, an I mean EVERY EDH DECK should be packing some form of grave hate. Graveyard recursion is something you'll see in just about any deck and it's a really easy plan to interact with if you make just even a little extra room for it. Meren is a value commander, meaning she generates advantage, but offers nothing else. She isn't a wincon, she doesn't have protection, and she isn't a combo piece. She just gets you back other things. You can either kill her every time she comes out, making her hard to recast, or exile her grave and force your opponent to waste time setting up again. Or both. Meren is easy to shut down provided you pack some answers, which a good chunk of your deck should be dedicated to.

Is it possible to purchase a card like this? I prefer this art for obvious reasons.

I have a foil Gift of Orzhova and it's a thing of beauty.

It's also kind of expensive for being otherwise useless, sitting at around $5-$6 for the Gatecrash foil. The foil MM3 printing without the watermark isn't even $1 though.
>>
>>55044044
there are so many graveyard hate card out there and she insta folds to it
>>
>>55044439
Probably can for some abhorrent price. I was looking at alters a while ago and they were running for like 40+ dollars.
>>
>>55044519
I know how you feel, I pulled a foil Gift of Orzhova in the pre-release, and it is fucking beautiful. Without to mention that it actually won me a game that day.

I do have a foil OG Avacyn and I think it looks pretty great, but every other AVR foil I've seen just looks strange. What did they even do there?
>>
>>55040454
There is only one single way this game could get me hyped at all.

Magic the gathering is all about casting spells and summoning figmants of things you've seen. If I don't get the ability to summon a bunch of monsters and have them fight monsters for me, or gain summons of enemies I defeat, it will be just another generic MMO.

They also need to make sure color devotion plays a big part.
>>
>>55044581
My LGS keeps a longbox of foil $0.50 common/$1 uncommon draft chaff from current sets, since they'd buy people's leftover draft pools and loose cards from people buying boxes for bulk. During the Gatecrash draft season, I rummaged through it regularly and happened to find a Gift of Orzhova once. I also ended up with a Cartel Aristocrat, Debt to the Deathless, and a few other odds and ends.
>>
>>55044519
I really want a foil teysa, orzhov scion. Foil cards with watermarks are beautiful.
>>
>>55044625
Nope.
Some idiot storeowner commissioned an artist to do the alters so they could hopefully sell them at a huge markup to some brony. Turns out everyone was rightfully disgusted and he ended up having to sell them at a loss to be rid of them.

I have one. She heads my only Commander deck currently.

>>55044366

Thanks matey, you da real MVP

There's a really strong chance that next time we head back to Ravnica they'll do a Masterpiece series of the Guild legends.

>>55044765
Sweet, teysa is my only commander deck right now too. Probably gonna order a foil one next month.
>>
>>55044806
I want a foil Godless Shrine too but $95 is steep

>>55044366
How many grave hate cards is enough?

Teysa is fucking amazing. Ophiomancer makes muh dick ROCK HARD
>>
>>55041187
I keep a deck box of about 60 cards that I rotate in or out of that last slot or two I can't settle on. If there were no rule I might have like 110 cards in my deck.
>>
>>55041351
Ive seen people announce they are scrying and then do it just to see if anyone stops them. It's not like they can unsee the card.

Why? Oh no, you're not playing standard, are you?
>>
>>55044821
I usually run Scavenger Grounds, Tormod's Crypt if I know I'll be playing against Black, Scavenging Ooze if I'm in green, Bojuka Bog if I'm in Black, Relic of Progenitus if I find I don't have either of those too, Nihil Spellbomb, or Rakdos Charm. I rarely run fewer than 3 pieces of grave interaction in any deck (3 is for grave-light metas) and don't tend to go above 5.

Here's a pretty good list of grave hate cards sorted by type. If you find Meren is kicking your ass a little too much, grab about 5 or so of the cards from here and she'll rarely do much ever again.

>>55043546
Would this be unbanned if it was
a) fetch two basic lands
b) fetch one land
c) fetch one basic land
d) never ever, ban all ramp
?
>>
>>55044625
They're real. If someone is selling power, that shit gets tested. Judging by the condition, they were probably graded too.

>>55044911
If it was on cast rather than ETB.
>>
>>55044911
It'd probably be fine if it fetched two basics. There's better ramp than that in EDH as is. It's only so good because it can grab anything.

>Thread Question: Have you ever run a Commander for Vorthos reasons?
I've never run a commander for anything but. Since Wizards is determined to not support the storyline and instead publish some nasty-ass "X-Men in Themepark Land" fanfic I've got no choice to do right by my favorite characters myself.

I'm still waiting on a proper RG Freyalise with Rebecca Guay art. The one I've got is okay I guess but it's just not Freya without Guay.

>>
>>55044971
Yes. That was part of making the "Premium" feel to the decks.
>>
>>55044959
Post yfw they do Masterpiece Series: Planeswalkers in Dominaria with Guay, Nielsen, Walker, etc. doing the art.
>>
I honestly try to avoid foils in magic when possible. Because of my autism, I always end up feeling one of three ways:
>the only card that can be foil is your finisher/wincon card
>the only foils are alternate arts you can only get foil. (I personally like having different arts for my cards when possible)
>If you foil any other cards, you must foil all of your cards. Otherwise it just looks ugly.

Because of these three reasons (and how much more it costs to foil an entire deck) I usually just avoid foiling. Especially since most mtg art isn't created with foiling in mind, so it ruins a lot of art.

Mana plus is like what all the best mana rocks do you stupid cunt, but that's not all, even the other ones can be tapped the turn you play them, resulting in explosive plays like casting 6-7 drops on turn 2, which cannot be done with green ramp. Also all the fastest green ramp (mana dorks) is vulnerable to board wipes
>>
>>55044519
Oh, yeah, that's another good one.
>>
>>55045081
You basically just described me, except I haven't gone for the alternate arts. However, I also go for the "all or nothing" foils. Burns my soul when a lot of fun cards from commander sets and such don't exist in foil, though.
>>
>>55045081
My brother only likes using foil permanents. His opinion is that if it's going to be foil, it should be something that stays on the battlefield for a while, so foil Instants, Sorceries, or even foils of cards like Fetchlands don't appeal to him.

Posting my Breya list, I'm pretty happy with the powerlevel for my group but I'm always looking for new additions. Thinking about cutting Noxious Gearhulk for Sharrum, thoughts?
>3.03 average CMC
I'm playing 11 cmc2 rocks, though I decided to decline the fast mana for powerlevel reasons
>Deathmantle combo
Needed to keep the powerlevel low for my group, and I already have a deck that usually wins by going infinite, I don't really savor Breya and the 4c Tutors.dec

>>55045490
Darksteel Forge and Padeem, Consul of Innovation are two includes I'd add.

Whipflare is terrible. Unless you constantly play against 1/1tokens.dec then replacing it with a boardwipe is just better.
>>
>>55038939
I sometimes get crop rotation and harrow backwards. Its not my fault, my vision is going and I have to memorize cards.
>>
>>55045081
That's me. I will always go for alternate arts and a lot of the time they're foil only, which is awesome, because they're usually cheaper than even non-foil regulars. I picked up the promo Stoneforge for the price of a regular Stoneforge.

Only a couple printed 'walkers are germane to Dominaria though: Liliana, Nicol, Teferi, Freyalise and I think that's it. Masterpiece Series: Legends of Dominaria would have more to cull from (and could probably be stretched for a couple PWs) and be more exciting IMO

The text is like super bold on all of them. They're not necessarily bad but they're different. The other anon might be right about the Graveborn connection.

Commander's Arsenal goes in Fragile Tier as well because I've got great looking Vela and Maelstrom Wanderer but someone else posted that theirs was cloudy and curled.
