Played a game at my lgs last night with each of the precons and I gotta say, it was the most fun I've had playing a commander game in a very long time. All the decks feel very balanced with each other and play well out of the box. The problem now us deciding what decks to upgrade

Not sure if I should get one or not. Wizards with upgrades seems like fun, but I'm not sure which commander I'd use, and I want to try something outside of Grixis colors (which is very unusual for me).

It was looking pretty good for casual play, with both the tribal staples like Gravespawn Sovereign and some personal notes that I could support, but two things occurred to me

First, and more minor, replace Perpetual timepiece with Embalmer's tools RIGHT NOW.

Second... FFS you need more mana. 31 lands? With an average CMC of 3.52? Seriously, beef it up. I wouldn't go below 35 unless I got the average CMC under 3.0, and even then I would feel the need for a good rock suite. Start by ditching Mental Note and Thought Scour, then keep cutting until you can get to 35 land and 10 ramp effects (probably rocks because you're in Dimir). Focus on rocks that cost 2 or less, Ideally ones that come in untapped. You have your Signet, Sol Ring, and Talisman (Ashnod's needs you to have a board, it doesn't really count as good buildup ramp), consider the following

>Sky Diamond, Charcoal Diamond, and Coldsteel Heart. 2-cost, enter tapped, make colored.
>Mind Stone, Thought Vessel, Prismatic Lens, and Everflowing Chalice. Cost 2 and come in untapped
>Mana Vault, it's mana-positive if you need it to be and doesn't cost a gorillion dollars.
>Mana Crypt, you're running a nearlt 500 dollar deck, you should be able to afford one
>Commander's Sphere, it's 3-cost but it comes in untapped makes any functional color and can crack for a card if you don't need it.
>Hedron Archive, Thran Dynamo, and Worn Powerstone are slower but represent a big surge of mana. Throw one or more in if you need a lot of mana per turn for your activated abilities, your curve is low enough that you shouldn't need them just to cast your spells.
>Magnifying Glass is a personal favorite of mine for any controlling deck, and you seem to be more into control/synergy than straight up combo killing. It's a slightly overcost Mind Stone but in return it can draw you cards forever in the late game.
>>
>>55060128
I thought he had a pumpkin helmet for the longest time. Guy is actually a pretty cool card I've found, native double strike and magnetism is pretty dangerous for a low investment.
>>
>>55060233
He's still third for monowhite equipment voltron fun times, though. He can get lucky pretty easily but Sram's CA and 8.5 Tails ability to be an insane spanner in the works would seem to hold a little more water.

Went around to a few Wal-Marts in my area and found some of the $20 repacks. Several of them had C14 in them, so I ended up with 2 Nahiris, 1 Ob Nixilis, and 1 Daretti. Really wish I'd have found a Freyalise, but I still got a lot more value than I spent.

The packs ended up being 4 SoI, 3 BfZ, and 1 DTK, the best card of which was a Westvale Abbey.

Altogether, I think it was pretty good. You guys should scrape your local stores, it seems worthwhile. They have them set up so the packs are loosely wedged in either end of the box to try and prevent you from seeing what the deck is inside, but you can shake them loose and peer inside with a tiny bit of effort. There were a few intro packs and a clash pack deck in one of them, so be sure to check first.

>the Walmart ones are obscured by the packs

Yeah, you have to shake them around a bit at an angle. The packs can and will come loose and then you can see the deck that's inside.
>>
>>55060738
I tired that once. Took like 10 minutes and I looked like a retard. I'll try again next time though.
>>
>>55060785
Well, here's the steps to try. Hold the thing sideways so one of the packs is facing upwards. Lift it up and abruptly swing it downwards. The pack will probably come loose and sink a little ways into the box. Shake it like it's pivoting on the bottom corner so that the deck inside actually knocks the pack over. Then you'll either be able to see the deck, or, if it landed so the pack is on top of the face of the deck, you have to shake it back and forth a little so that the pack slides off the face of the deck.

I was able to get all of them visible in the end, taking maybe a minute at first and then less than 30 seconds after I got the hang of it.

Yeah, but the thing of wizards is more or less evenly split between card draw and instant/sorcery matters. Some cheap cantrip, Faithless Looting, reanimation to get the etb trigger more cheaply.

I'm pretty sure that River Kelpie and Prized Amalgam are the only cards that meet that criteria and they can't be played in Meren.

River Kelpie feels like an underrated card but it rarely works as well as it looks like it would. It should be insane with flashback and stuff like Yawgmoth's Will but it never happens.

>>55061159
Custom mass-tokens. Especially funny if you use words for groups of things. A gaggle of zombies, a murder of angels, a school of goblins, etc.

I made a fair bit of cuts, and the deck feels like it runs a lot better now. But I couldn't find the room for more mana rocks, I personally don't know what to cut for them or if I even need them at this point.

>>55061653
You could probably use them, but as long as you've got your land base worked out you should be fine.

A bundle of battlements, a cluster of cleavers, you get the deal.
>>
>>55061267
I played with someone who did this. They had several "kinds" of Zombie tokens, to represent different amounts. I think they had 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100.

So, for example, if they had 38 Zombies, there'd be probably a 20 Zombies token, a 10 Zombies token, and a Zombie token with a d8 set to "8" on it.

Just played against a Leovold (we play with Magic Online rules), won two games after suffering a wheel on turn 4 with Leovold out, discarding my whole hand and drawing me one.

Was it just a bad Leovold deck or does this deck somehow struggle closing out games?
>>
>>55062557
What were you playing? It does sound like the deck was bad or unlucky if it couldn't win after raping your hand on turn 4. But on the other hand, Leovold scales with more players and is probably better in 4 player than 1v1 because he can rape every hand at once and Puzzlebox lock the game regardless of the number of players.

The deck is mostly what you said though, U/G infinite combos that revolve around Kraj. Though its always fun when you can Kraj your opponents stuff.


The deck is fucked over via removal/wipes like you said , but you are running U/G you have multiple ways to rebuild, fill up your hand, or flatout prevent people from casting wipes.

Not even out for a full day and the LGS shenanigans are starting with the new CMD17.

Local store has 6 cases (1 of each deck per case). Only opens 1 case, refuses to open any other cases. Saying all other CMD product must be bought as a full case.

Full case is being sold for $165
The individual decks are each being sold above MSRP.

Dragons - $50
Vampires - $45
the other 2 are $40 each.....

Uh, the card IS good. An extra draw per turn is worth 4 mana nowadays and cost reduction is usually 3. You get the extra draw for only 3 and you get cost reduction with it. That's a powerful magic card. Whether or not tribal is worth doing is another thing entirely. But if you are that card is one of the few generic tribal cards from the set that is legit powerful. The Kindred cards are cool but generally too expensive with the exception of maybe Discovery and MAYBE Charge for me. The land is mediocre though I Guess you may as well play it if you're tribal since the opportunity cost is so low, and the sword is quite frankly pretty bad imo.

Did you not read the card? It only gives you a draw if the top card is the right creature type. Even in a dedicated tribal deck that's only a third of the cards.

So you draw a card once every three turns on average. That's really bad. Especially when you are revealing cards.

Finally, coat reduction for specific creature types is dirt cheap, and is usually stapled to a card of the relevant type for more tribal shenanigans (see Lorwyn cards like Stonybrook Banneret).

It's a bad card. I would not include it in any tribal decks

Yeah, whatever.

Also the Lorwyn cost reducers only went as low as 2 mana, and anything that nets mana nowadays is 3 mana, so Lorwyn cost reducers are undercosted by today's standards.But evne if we assume old standards for these kinds of getting cost reduction and card draw on the same permanent for only 3 mana is still crazy. You don't know jack shit abotu card evaluation. It's not going to literally draw you a card every time, but it should be doing it the vast majority of the time, and it's actively doing other things in the mean time when it isn't at an appropriate, if mediocre, cost.

It's literally how they built their tribal decks this year, and with the possible exception of elves it will hold true for just about any tribal deck you make. You want to make a list that proves me wrong that's fine by me.

>and anything that nets mana nowadays is 3 mana, so Lorwyn cost reducers are undercosted by today's standards

Commander decks aren't standard legal, they are legacy legal, and they don't hold to standard design philosophy. For proof you can look at toxic deluge, a 3cmc wrath printed in commander after they decided wraths of 4 CMC or lower are too strong for standard.

Finally, many of the cost reducers printed are members of the appropriate tribe, which is a huge boost, because as you have already mentioned, you want to jam as many of the right tribal cards as possible into your deck when building a tribe.

The card is bad.

>>55064574
The decks this year, contrary to how they were advertised, were not dedicated tribal decks. They were split between at least two themes each. The only consolation they made to that is they made all creatures in the deck the creature type or cared about the creature type. In an actual dedicated tribal you would not have equal amounts noncreature artifacts and spells, that's absurd. Even limited decks don't have an even split like that and they don't care about tribal most of the time.

You're right that older stuff is costed lower and that matters because commander is legacy, but people still play a lot things that are the new price. People still play Outpost siege, people still play 3 drop rocks. This is a little worse than both individually since it only reduces the cost of one thing and the draw isnt' 100% guaranteed, but the package is cheaper than typical continuous draw and fair if unexcitingly costed for the other thing, and you get both at the same for 3 generic mana.

You are 100% right on the lorwyn guys fair enough, but the additional things they do besides reduce cost are bad, getting an additional draw a good chunk of the time is better than what they do. They're also colorless so.

No, Hybrids have to do stuff both colors are able to do, like pic related. Both green and white is able to destroy artifacts and enchantments, so it's OK. If this was R/G R/G instead it would break the color-pie, as mono-red should not be able to destroy enchantments. Gold cards can though, as you HAVE to use the other color.

I feel like I'm being baited. This has been the point I've been hammering: Gold has to have and effect that shows BOTH colors. Hybrid has to have an effect that EITHER can perform. A hybrid RW has to be passable as either Red or White (Destroy target artifact). A gold RW card has to have something that dips into mechanics neither could access on their own (Lightning Helix).

For starters, you'd need some way of giving almost all of them Banding, or you'd have to play existing cards with Banding. At that point, it'd probably be a lot easier to just make your whole team indestructible until end of turn.

Banding on blocking is amazing to protect your creatures.
It's not that amazing offensively when compared to things like Iroas and Dolmen Gate.
But it usually forces your opponent to chump. A Band with a 2/2 and 3/2 can may end passing unblocked by a 5/5. He is forced to either take 5 or trade the 5/5 with the 2/2.

Actually you can't compare anything like that to banding. Those are amazing with banding, and in some cases each of them is better than the other.
Preventing damage to your creatures won't save you from a Phyrexian Hydra on Berserk and Steroids and won't help allow your weenies to get past a taller blocker.

Cats should be focused on Infect using Lost Leonin/Grafted Exoskeleton/ Triumph of the Hordes/
Tutor for Leonin with Green Sun, Eldramani's Call, Worldly Tutor and try to go Tall. If dosen't work tutor Grafted Exoskeleton with Open the Armory, Enlightned Tutor, Nazahn and Steelshaper's Gift and try to go tall.
If all else fails White Zenith for a million and Triumph of the Hordes.

I got some cards in the mail to upgrade the wizard deck, what 8 cards should I remove? I'm almost certain the curses are shit.
>>
My store actually had a Ventifact Bottle and Magister's Scepter. They don't have shit normally. Fuck, they didn't even have all the janky stupid shit I wanted, but they had the two card combos that every Mairsil deck will run.

I'm not 100% on including them, but my friends run busted shit too, so I dunno.

does it make her hotter?

>>55067781
Only EDH right now but it is on the reserved list, is good in EDH, and has price memory.

Intuition + Accumulated Knowledge used to be a very powerful draw engine but it's long past relevance.

Any suggestions for a low budget Alesha deck?

This is what I own so far: http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/budget-alesha-edh-3/

There's definitely some room for improvement, I'd prefer unusual/'fun' additions but it's all fair game to cut/swap.
>>
>>55067781
Legacy Omnishow, Sneak&Show and Storm.
>>
ANYONE ELSE GET ANY MISPRINTS? I got a case and was greeted to forty of them in the dragon deck
>>
>>55067781

Little bit of legacy play here and there, used to be played more then it fell off, never been reprinted so why would it drop?
>>
>>55061025
they generally don't make tokens of exact copies of actual cards outside of special circumstances like eternalize.
>>
>>55068069
>>55068037
>>55067928
I didn't know it had any Legacy play. Oh well.

I'm just looking for Entomb variants for Mairsil.

MISPRINTS
>>
>>55068284
I can confirm the misprints are not. Since I bought a case, I got a cat decks have what can only be described as a scratch going accross some of the commons and uncommons (I can't take a picture since it can only be seen in good light at a certain angle) And was done when the cards were still on the sheet, and also one of the cards was dented

>>55068318
Maybe the shit foiling is also a misprint on my vampires. Seriously, what's with the super dark foil cards, when I'm reading the rules text, it feels like I'm watching at a black man in a coal cellar at winter night
>>
>>55068751
Apparently wizards invested all the money they usually do in magic QC in that one fag parade a while back
>>
>>55068925
Why waste money on a thing that's completely unrelated to the company's product line? It's not like prides will enhance card quality, so what's that about?
I think that companies should focus on their product and keep a neutral ground, but for some reason especially video games and their devs are constantly doing shit like that instead of making a game that reflects their vision.

Picked up all 4 precon decks for $100

Which is the best one out of the 4 to use? I was interested in the Dragons deck but the other three decks have some interesting reprints as well.
>>
>>55061112
just did a few games with my friend, this fucker is mvp for sure. im keeping it low power for now, so no infinites, sundials, glen elendra archmage, altars, etc. surprised i dont have a lot of key stuff like visera seer
>>
>>55065871
>tfw you animate opponents sol rings and then wrath
>>
>>55068288
They're not misprints, wizards just don't want the original card devalued so they print these to look like chinamen
>>
>>55069192
But several of them ARE the original card. Also none of them are more than a few dollars

>>55069072
My vampire deck has smashed the other 3 decks three times in a row quite handily with minimal upgrades- mostly to manabase and adding a lord.
>>
>>55069516
Vampires is super straightforward assholery. Arhabo really can't stand up to removal, Dragons needs to become the eternal Scion deck to even begin competing and Wizards is just shit no matter who helms it, they're not Jeleva/Traximundar and it's a massive dissapointment.

Meanwhile Edgar ruins your shit with fucking 1-drops. I've been playing all night and only lost to my pals' 100% turn 2 labman combo decks and Meren lucking out on forever fleshbag loops.
>>
>>55069603
Every good deck is assholery.
Edgar is a fucking champ.
>>
>>55069723
I feel like that the best legends came from vampires and wizards, wizards having 3 good new legends and vampires having Edgar, Licia and le mark man being complete dogshit.

Any half-decent upgrades for this deck yet, including maybe a wincon or a finisher or some assholery enchantments?

Picked up my cat EDH deck for a mere $30. Now to acquire the upgrades.

>>55069998
There has to be a demand. Someone might want to collect the actually expensive ones, but most are probably only worth slightly more. It also depends how many decks are misprinted like this.

Ive been shilling that card since it came out. Turns out sigaurdas aid on a protection sword is good.

Well you're in luck because he's from Naya and was forcibly relocated to Bant because he was in part of Naya that was overlayed with Bant during the Conflux.

Best chunks of metal you mean. If they are just etherium from the neck down then you don't really have anywhere to put your p0nos. You also don't have any real way to differentiate between effeminate guys and girls.

The metal looks good though.

Bant has the best flavor of the 5 shards by a mile, way better than edgelord grixis and esper

>>55071242
Least generic, sure. Not best though. Grixis is a best, the whole plane is a metal album.

>>55071272

Metal music is rhythmically impressive but lyrically and aesthetically trash

Wizards is a shit deck but with the best overall cards

This is what I've ended up with after about a month of playtesting and tuning. I'd say it's very conditional on your meta; some people have gotten pretty salty about quilspike + devoted druid going infinite. Even without that, the triggers can get out of hand fast when you start putting counters on more than a few creatures at a time. If your meta is creature-heavy enough to support her I would definitely recommend. She snowballs harder than almost any deck I've played
