EDH/Commander General

For the guy in the last thread
>>46194764
>A quick way to tell if I am having fun during a game is to see how much I talk.
Too true. When I get the "Party Pod", which is just me and couple of other guys just dicking around, you can tell everyone's having so much fun.
>"Uh... Go to my attack step"
>"COUNTER!"
>"Sir, that is an illegal action! Judge!"
>"Judge!"
>"Oh wait, I'm the judge."
>"Judge, I'd like to call out myself as a cheater!"

>"HMMMMMMMMM..." *shuffle cards in hand like a retard* "I'll take the six"
>"alright pass turn"

It's so stupid I love it

>>46194918
>Do you really think kiki-jiki/splinter is worth taking out?
Yes, you don't have enough support for it, for when you don't combo off.

Also, like >>46195010 said, every blue deck should have Frantic Search. It's just a free loot to sculpt your hand like crazy. Also grab a lightning greaves, because someone would love to spike your commander.

Also add Sphinx of the Final Word for control matchups, so you don't have to worry about your combos too much.

Mono-Black, which is under $150. Right now most of my decks are under $100.

>>46195680
What I list is what I've got and it works pretty well. Doesn't get boring from all the variance, but it's consistent for leveling out in the early game and comboing off in the late game.

How the fuck did you damage a card that isn't even six months old yet?

>>46196248
Bought it from my lgs for .30c in this condition.
Nowhere else in Madison WI had a daxos the returned single in stock, as they don't carry commander singles. The only one I could find was in a damaged binder.
I didn't want to waste 5$ on shipping by buying one card online, and I didn't want to waste 35-40$ on the precon.

I can't find the word, it's somewhere between oppressive and anti-fun. English is not my first language.

>Why would a store sell a card for less than a third of a cent?

Do you mean a third of a dollar?

the damaged binders are used when the store purchases cards in bulk for something around 10 cents per 100 cards, and cards are worth something, but are too damaged to sell at the normal near mint conditioning. Didn't want to throw away a playable card, so they put it in the damaged binder.
Other cards in the damaged binder have sharpie on them, or stamps, or tears/abrasion, rounded corners.
I've gotten pic related for around .50c

Is that enough info? I can provide more if you'd like.

>>46196687

>>46196553

They are no longer lost in the woods as soon as I have a card in my library other than a forest.

>>46196589
I do enjoy fun decks more than effective decks.

Darien is centered around rube goldberg machines that make me shit soldiers and gain life instead of take damage, and is filled with self-pingers and all-player-pinger artifacts and shit.

Kraj is filled to the brim with a shitload of 3-5 activated ability combos that are deadly but no 2 card combos because it's boring for me and everyone else. I love jankiness.

Lorthos is literally just ocean-related cards and nothing else. Large sea monsters, coral reef, pirate ships, water creatures, whirlpools and waves. Hilariously enough I win with it way more often than other decks.

Holy fuck the hostility, it's like I'm playing grand Arbiter Augustin IV in a 4player edh freeforall.

And I'm not poor, but I like to efficiently use the money I allot towards my hobby. Is that a bad thing? I mainly buy off of troll and toad, so I actually don't use tcgplayer as my primary supplier.

And of course I know what tcgplayer is.
By the way you're phrasing your replies, it almost sounds like you're some sort of MTG online supplier elitist. I can't believe I'm even having this conversation to be honest, I didn't expect someone to be judging me on an Mongolian basket weaving forum

>>46196467
>>46196475
The deck is my first attempt at creating a control deck in EDH with tempo in mind. The deck is grindy by design with a big beater as a finish, nothing flashy other than necropotence.

My playgroup is extremely competitive. We've actually had a couple instances of people betting their decks in matches. Honestly, I think the power level might be a bit too low actually and was hoping for ideas on holes in the strategy or better choices on cards I'm using.

I like kami of the crescent moon turbostasis. You play howling mine, kami, and font of mythos, thrive in good politics, wait for opponents to kill each other, and then drop winter orb, static orb, stasis, etc and attempt to win by forcing them to draw to death or through lab man/leveler.

It recently won a 4 hour 5 man game, I ended up with 147 life and 96 cards in library

>>46197257
Forsaken City is a must have in that deck. Feeds Stasis and lets you cycle dead cards, generally islands.

Sunder, evac, turbulent dreams, cyclonic rift

Never plan on actually casting koz, only utilizing his graveyard shuffle ability

>>46197379
sounds like you have the entire trinket mage package in there, right?

>>46197487
To be honest, no. I'm assuming that's a combo?
I don't run many crazy combos, the only use I can see for trinket mage in this deck is to grab spellbook, meekstone, library of leng, or ivory tower. What is the "entire trinket mage package"?

>>46197516
Trinket Mage package is a suite of cheap response rocks that can basically fix any problem you're currently having. Need a big mana boost? Sol Ring. Need color? Jeweled Amulet/Chrome Mox/Mox Opal/etc. Need their yard gone? Relic/Tormod's. Need Land? Fatty Hate? Token Hate? Big creature a problem? Planeswalker online? There's a 0-1 mana artifact for that.

Seriously, check gatherer for artifacts trinket mage can tutor up, you'll be surprised.

>>46197553
Oooooh, I understand. I'll take a peek.
The thing is, I get to the point where either I force politics on anyone with a board state I'm afraid of, or I bounce what they're threatening me with at instant speed (or I threaten to).

Forbid has countered literally 15 spells in one game, from one blue player, with arcane Lab on the field.

Turbulent dreams Might be my favorite though. Watching the face of a superfriends narset player as 6 walkers get bounced for 2 mana (and discarding 6 cards, a small price in this deck) and holding up mana for counterspells in response. That player's transgressions against me sets an example for the rest of the table. That feeling when they can do nothing to stop dream halls, sunder, evac, and windfall in one turn is priceless

>>46197621
Ah, so hard control then? Mind over Matter in there?

>>46197621
>>46197553

Did I mention narset can't untap due to meekstone while all this is happening? I'm telling you, kami of the crescent moon turbo stasis is a blast to run

>>46197639
I've been considering it, it's on my buy list next to back to basics and old koz (solely for graveyard shuffle ability)

>>46197061
Of course not. I've never won with that deck.

>>46197639
Would mind over matter + temple bell be an infinite draw combo for the entire table?

>>46197694
Yes, pretty much.

>>46197708
Going to buy a mind over matter tomorrow, and a foiled temple bell

>>46197659
I have built that deck and actually won a single game due to complete fuckery from everyone else. That being said, do you actually play something that boring often? The novelty for me wore off incredibly quick.

>>46197719
No, usually I play one of my other three. I play Omnath when I'm bored because I'm at a table with a hyper-competitive meta just to completely grind against it. I'm used to playgroups who use EDH as an excuse to try to win with jank and I love tables like that. If I wanted to make a perfect machine of a deck I'd play boring straightforward commanders or just play a different format.

What does m/tg/ think of Corpse Dance? With a sac outlet it is pretty much Recurring Nightmare in disguise. How come I haven't seen this card in dozens of decklists?

I play Teneb Rock/Reanimator (mostly because my new playgroup is a bunch of sissys that ban any form of tutoring, MLD, hardlocks, praetors, you name it) and can't or shouldn't have the goodness that Karador provides.

>>46197750
5 mana a turn to repeatedly cast one creature that you can't choose is not good. In response, your opponents can either kill your yard, kill a creature on board, or counter the spell outright, leaving at least three avenues of counterplay. It's not as good as you think, anon.

Too big for reanimator, they want cheap spells like reanimate, animate dead, exhume, and so on, and it's too small an effect for the mana in tempo. Control doesn't usually want creatures that don't stick around for only a turn at a time, so you're left with combo which just has better options.

Cheap one shot style effects are neat, but almost irrelevant since there is no such thing as Entomb, Buried Alive or SOTF in this meta. Counterspells are scarce, graveyard hate is close to non-existent. My meta is even more of a hugbox than the store banlist that banned Reliquary Tower.

What combo options do you speak of? Remember, Karmic Guide + Reveillark + Saffi Eriksdottir is out of the question.

>>46197922
I can't actually go through the list of every combo you can include in EDH . . .

So do I, everyone has things they hate in the format, but building a banlist like this is pure insanity. It's like whenever something wins, they ban it. How the fuck do they even justify banning Sigarda, Host of Herons as a Commander? In what world does that make sense? Did she win one too many games and people couldn't be assed to include actual counters to that card? And motherfucking Reliquary Tower? What's the story here? If the anon who goes at that LGS is still around, I need to know that story.

I can tell you based on what I saw during the last FNM (where the had a concurrent EDH "tournament") that it seems like the majority of the players run blue. I suspect that this banlist is because of players whining, not because the staff really cares about competitive diversity.

The stuff you already mentioned, retrace stuff, cycling lands, wasteland stripland etc etc... exploration, life from the loam, a lot of land tutors... man this sounds so sweet, sadly im already in progress of building a deck

There's someone in my playgroup who is a nice guy but he loves to take extra turns with shit like Time Stretch and Lighthouse Chronologist.

Only expensive, always-sold-out cards are good with this as commander. That is just terrible. I want to like it, but I can't. If you want to play this correctly, you'll need all those fetches, life from the loam and above all, crucible. There are no budget options that come even close.

Zuran Orb is pretty good in this

>>46201221
>there are no budget options
Better fire up that old printer and get proxy-ing.

>>46201366
Also it is a little more fun to brew when it doesn't feel like the card was made specifically to do what you are doing with it.
Like this basically just builds itself. It should be fun, but it is missing the building aspect which is fun too.

Frogitrog Monster is so good but what makes him any more legendary than craterhoof or ludvic's abomination? I was hoping the story would have a bigger twist than "it's hypno toad", but oh well I guess. I didn't want a devil or wolf legend any how, who does?

>changing my Sharuum deck to be focused on combos

Am I a bad person? I love feeling like the most powerful player when I play with my waifu deck. I've added some cantrips, and I'm going to shell out for Intuition and Demonic Tutor. The combos I'm going for are:
Basalt + Rings + Goblin Cannon, but there are plenty of ways to abuse infinite mana I think I can also add Doubling Cube + Sages, but it needs way more mana to start going.
Sword of the Meek + Foundry
Time Sieve + Thopter Assembly
Sharuum + Sculpting Steel or Phyrexian Metamorph

What other card draw/tutors should I add? Am I going for way too many combos?

They both have their merits. Rain can be played to combo out on an opponent's turn and can be harder to interact with.

Am I an asshole for playing Scion with the OKO? I think it's fine in multiplayer because you can't renew it (without gurzigost) so it's only useful once and it makes you a target. But i understand it's probably a feelbad to get OKOd on turn 5-6 and then everyone else is still playing for another 10 turns.

Is the consensus that I'm a dick and should take Moltensteel out, or nah?

This is why I'll never build a voltron deck. It's so awkward to get knocked out on turn 5 for arbitrary reasons only to see the voltron deck peter out and get stomped by the other decks once they stabilize.

You either build a tuned voltron deck that can fuck the table in 3 consecutive turns or you're just playing "which one of you is loosing this game with me".

>>46203040
>full creative force
I feel like it's the complete opposite. Proxying is the best way for every deck to look the same. Real creative deckbuilding happens when you can't get all the obviously best staples and auto-includes and have to find budget alternatives and/or work with the cards you have on hand. Throwing proxies into the mix just drastically increases the number of auto-includes you have to run.

>>46203180
pendrell mists, zur's weirding, sands of time, static orb, stasis, crucible of worlds + strip mine, eye of the storm, and delusions of grandeur + donate

>>46203180
Eye of the Storm, Hivemind, Puca's Mischief, Conjured Currency to name a few.

>>46203186
Hit her with things that say "target creature gets first strike, -THEN DRAW A CARD-" look for that, then with your goblin army, watch as it becomes "your whole army gets first strike, draw a card for each creature you control"

Tiny effects become major on her. Huge effects slow you down unless they're huge enough to swing a game. Think like you're a machine gun, low cmc.

>>46203189
>Proxying is the best way for every deck to look the same.
It could definitely go that way. It won't necessarily, though. Plus, once you have access to all of the obligatory includes, you'll more quickly grow tired of them and move onto something else.

>>46203117
>>46203256
Also don't forget everyone's favorite cards Red Elemental Blast and Pyroblast to protect your swings from counters.

>>46202514
Actually I think Wizards puts some kind of blue layer inside the card to assure it's real, you can kind of see it in that Underground Sea. It's hard to put that layer in a fake card so it would actually be more clearly a fake if it was torn up like that.

>>46203439
I have a feeling that just comes from water damage coloring the core layers because of the blue in the text box.

>>46203467
Yeah that's possible, I don't know if they were putting the layer in cards that early in the game's history but I'm sure I've heard something about it before. It could definitely be from the water damage tho

I wanna get into commander. Is mono black viable? I wanna start with something simple and I haven't made a mono black deck since I first got into magic over a decade ago. What are some good mono-black commanders?

Ghoulcaller gisa! Or go shriea 40 shadowborne apostles

>>46203886

>>46203886
find somewhere that has the 2014 commander decks, the monoblack one with ob noxious of the black oath gives you a good starting base but has room for improvement. the alternative commander that comes with the deck, ghoulcaller gisa, is really solid as well.

>>46203971
Loads. My favorites are Revelliark, Sun Titan, Order of Whiteclay, Reclamation of Rebirth.

I think there are a few others, but this shit is easy to look up, you do it. Be aware, most of those are based on CMC, but there are some stupidly based on power.

Plat Angel and a few other cards stop you from killing yourself. Some people combo Phage with something like Endless Whispers or a few other cards to kill people via her weird lose condition.

I finally figured out the best unique synergy with Geist of Saint Traft. Banding.

Banding. It works. It works surprisingly well.

I also finally realized what the point of all those "becomes blocked" cards is.

>>46205708
>board wipe at instant speed
or just exiling the kiki, forever. boardwipes would be fine in comparison. since you can just get your stuff back. as usual in the alesha deck this combo is best when you have sac outlets in play (and if you have goblin bombardment or altar of dementia in play, you win the turn that you cast buried alive with infinite dammy or mill).

>>46205660
yes! although, that only kills one person and can just be blocked so it doesn't seem quite as good. also it's kind of funny that alesha has first strike so if you don't have any other unblocked creatures (that don't have first strike) it won't even kill them, it'll leave them at 1.

House rules? Post your house rules.

I'm of the opinion that the less houserules that affect the game the better, and I've pretty much singlehandedly pushed land removal to be (somewhat) tolerated in the meta, as well as slowly introducing stax elements. The last two rules are compromises I've had to make.

>>46207092
In most playgroups, that would basically translate to "titans are banned, unless you're really in love with fatties".

I guess that's sort of fine, it's more permissive than simply banning them, players who like the cards can still use them. I just really hate any houserule that makes cards not do what's written on them / what their oracle text says. That would be like making a houserule saying that Sol Ring costs 3 to cast. It would still be a great card, I'd still play it, it would arguably lead to a much healthier format, but really, just ban the fucking card instead. Modifying the text of cards through houserules is only one step removed from just playing with custom cards.

Yesterday I met a guy who took forth my Mikaeus deck, felt pretty cool.

I asked how much he paid for it WITH shipping. He said it was $35, not too bad. He also added cards like Sol Ring and Blasting Station.

>>46207159
well before they printed the new titans, the old titans were played in many decks that made big mana and wanted the cast effects because their color(s) either couldn't vindicate or couldn't draw cards well. I wouldn't imagine many seriously competitive decks would have played them but this is edh, right? kozilek was definitely more about the draw 4 than the body it left behind, although obviously the fact that you get a huge monster that will annihilate someone's day if you untap with it is part of why it was worth to pay that much mana for the effect, even if your color(s) couldn't draw cards otherwise. ulamog is indestructible so he was a lot more appealing even if you weren't, for example, desperate to have a way to kill enchantments in your monored deck.

of course then they printed the new titans and they had significantly improved versions of the on cast effects, and suddenly anyone who was playing ulamog for the vindicate rather than the indestructible 99/99 annihilator had no reason to play him anymore, unless they played both.

>>46207122
Yup, exactly. Hopefully with thirty coin flips in Zada, you'll get some value off of it. I mean, winning three coin flips is what, a 1/8 chance? That doesn't sound right.

Half to win the first one, quarter to win the first and second one and eighth to win the first, second and third one. So, yeah, with 8 gobbos, you probably will win the big effect. Sure, it'll wipe your board, but hey.

>>46207258
oh yeah i forgot. some people choose for some reason to play with playgroups that have filthy degenerate mill players in them, so i guess many people found themselves playing the titans for that purpose as well.

>>46205107
I paid 6€ for a Japanese one lately, the fuck are you getting your prices from?

>>46207280
It's also a great tool for resetting your deck size. Drew 60 cards this turn? Discard 53, where one is a titan.

>>46205107
I got a foil Cabal Coffers for less than that a week ago.

>>46207159
>That would be like making a houserule saying that Sol Ring costs 3 to cast. It would still be a great card
>triple a card's casting cost
>it's still great
I have no reaction image for this

>>46207336
yeah a lot of decks want to shuffle stuff back in, although in general the decks i considered playing them in I also wanted my graveyard to stick around for a while because i had flashback cards in there or wanted to delve or wanted to go off with past in flames eventually. what would happen is that one of said filthy mill players would mill my old titans and my day would be ruined, so I switched to elixir of immortality to control my graveyard instead.

i wonder if i should run that 4 mana
target player shuffles their yard into their deck, draw a card
from dragons, it seems like it could be good to fuck other people's graveyard stuff and then I can always get it back from my yard to cast on myself later.

>>46207375
I see where he's coming from, it would be a strictly better Worn Powerstone and people play that. It might not be great but it's still good.

>>46207375
worn powerstone is a good edh card for any deck that wants to make big mana. there aren't really any other 2 mana for 3 rocks out there. sol ring at 3 mana is strictly better, so while worn powerstone is not comparable to sol ring in this format it's still really good. the only reason worn powerstone doesn't go in every deck is because not every deck wants to spend a card and the time on that effect, right? that doesn't mean worn powerstone isn't an extremely powerful card. sol ring at 3 mana would also be an extremely powerful card.

>>46206934
One group doesn't allow cards with old borders. I don't play with them often

>>46207400
Was Sol Ring, Worn Powerstone, Ur-Golem's Eye AND Thran Dynamo all in Daretti's deck?

>>46207400
>>46207409
I'm not saying it's wrong, I'm saying that the realization that you can triple a card's casting cost and still have it be great is sort of baffling.

>>46207416
I just have no idea how people can do this.

>>46207446
The precon didn't have Thran Dynamo if I remember correctly. Else I certainly would still have it in my Daretti deck. It did have Ur-Golem's and it is sort of silly to have that next to Sol Ring in the same deck.

>>46207416
As in cards that haven't been printed in new border or just any cards with old borders?

Eternal Masters is gonna spike their power level.

HI GUYS

>>46207452
They think everything with an old border is nearing Power Nine level good. They're stupid. Despite me having shit in my decks that would never ever work well in 60-card

Jace's Ingenuity costs 5 and saw Standard play. Ancestral Recall is 1 mana.

Time Warp is also 5 mana when Time Walk was 2. Mox Jet is a 0 mana Charcoal Diamond that enters untapped.

I was gonna say it was, but I looked it up and it was in the fucking BLUE precon, what the actual fuck.

Ur-Golem wasn't in the red precon though.

>>46207483
Saffi Eriksdotter, Sun Titan, Reveillark, Karmic Guide

These cards should help you combo out in countless different ways.

Boonweaver with a PAttern of Rebirth in the deck works too.

>>46207620
Melira, but yeah, I'm dumb. He did say creature based.

Revelliark and Karmic Guide also work.

ok guys. what's a good secret tech equipment for edh? i have stoneforge mystic and i already have the swords that fit my deck, skullclamp, and jitte. my deck has lots of expendable creatures in it so i can get attack triggers in for sure but i'm not that aggressive or voltron. what's an equipment that's like sword of fire and ice in that it just makes me sick value? i like deathrender but i may not have enough sac outlets or big creatures for it to be worth. the vindicate equipment is ok but i can already kill stuff and it costs 6 to equip. sword of the animist is in and im not in red so no sunforger. any other good shit?

>>46208009
Nope

>>46208009
I was about to say sword of the animist and sunforger but, well. Have you tried Blade of Selves? I haven't played with it myself but people claim it makes their dick hard when equipped to a Titan of any kind.

>>46208009
Sunforger if you're RW. I quite like Infiltration Lens too as it means you're getting value even if you can't hit them.

>>46208009
Uh, mask of memory?

>>46208078
oh YEAH forgot about that one, i have muh etb abilities as well so that's probably disgusting.

I like to slap this bad boy on at instant speed with Stonehewer Giant.

>>46208103
>>46208078
I have some reservations about Blade of Selves. People were creaming their pants when it got spoiled thinking it would break everything in half and become the next big oppressive things in the format and oh my god we just couldn't get over all the fucking value that thing provides.

I assume people by now have played with it extensively and strangely enough, you rarely hear anything about Blade of Selves. So either players have found their new tech to be so disgustingly good they want to keep it a secret, or my initial guess that it wasn't all that great turned out to be right.

>>46208009
Quietus Spike. I never see people run it and it really fucks people up

Quietus Spike seems pretty funny, but eh...

>>46208103
>>seems mediocre
That's because it is.

>>46208171
well it's not exactly much to be excited about. you get piles of etb effects but it's still just an equipment. you need to have the etb creature in play, you need to equip it, you need to get to declare attacks without someone killing the creature or the blade. the payoff of having it on a sun titan isn't even an order of magnitude more disgusting than what sun titan does by itself, in fact you may not have targets.

>equipment that isn't part of an infinite combo being oppressive in edh
>equipment at all being oppressive in edh
yeah right

>>46208171
Man I fucking loved it.

Me and a friend preordered two playsets for $1 a piece.

Traded them away to orgasming commander players for $15-20 each, used none of them ourselves.

Yo, I one HUNDRED percent guarantee anon asking about g/w creature combos and equipment is same person and also is building some waifufaggot new sigarda deck.

>>46208330
nope
why would i want new sigarda at the helm of a durdly green white deck? i'm building karametra

>>46208247
I think the problem is that for creatures you want to abuse etbs, there are way more efficient ways to do it. For commanders that care about equipment it does nothing.

>>46208009
Grafted Wargear
Explorer's Scope
Prowler Helm
Hero's Blade
Mother of Runes
Loxodon Warhammer
Sword of the Anamalist

>>46208425
I think people were wanting to play that mostly in green to strap it onto Acidic Slimes or Wood Elves. And sure, that does sound neat. But that's still a pretty low ceiling for a card that can often do literally nothing.

>>46208434
>>equipment
>>mother of runes

wat

>>46208434
>you are now picturing Isamaru charging into battle holding a mother of runes in his mouth

>>46208486
>>46208495
She mind as well be. She's already an auto include in every voltron deck

>>46207416

They sound like fags anon. The old boarders are the best.

>>46208425
well there most certainly is no card in the entire game that can compete with blade of selves for abusing etb abilities while you live in magical christmasland. whether you have an acidic slime, craterhoof behemoth, avenger of zendikar, regal force, whatever it may be, getting 2 triggers a turn is just nuts. compare it to conjurer's closet which gets you your trigger at a less convenient point in time in the turn.

but conjurer's closet is an apt comparison because unlike blade, it always works. even when there is one opponent it works. it doesn't have an equip cost and it doesn't require you to attack, so you can get your trigger from summoning sick creatures. it also has other utility like shaking darksteel mutation off your commander.

I think if you were going to compare it to stuff like resto angel, ghostway, and so on, closet and blade are just in a different category entirely since they are reusable. but closet always works, whereas blade doesn't. but then, you can only have one closet in your deck right? and you can tutor blade with like 1940915102 different white cards whereas closet can only be tutored by one white card.

>>46208369

>>46208693
Don't forget Eldrazi Displacer

>>46208693
curio is great but slow and expensive. goes much better in decks like animar and karametra and stuff where it's better than closet because you want to actually cast your stuff again in addition to getting your etb triggers again.

blade of selves isn't a combo card, it's a value card. people thought it would be nuts because people are dumb and don't understand that if you want to play a powerful, consistent, and resilient edh deck you can just go ahead and do that by playing combo. anyone who actually understands how to win at edh would never have looked at blade of selves and been like, yeah, this card is going to be "oppressive".

>>46208609
Even in a deck like Aurelia, I couldn't justify putting in Blade of Selves. I'm often going to attack twice, which means two triggers, but realistically speaking, how often am I even getting to attack with Aurelia and a good creature that does something on ETB to which I would have the time to attach an equipment? What are my opponents doing while I set all that up? Sitting on their thumbs?

Though I guess it's kind of nice that it could give infinite combat phases with a Brass Squire, if I'm understanding all those cards correctly. An equipment-focused Aurelia deck might like that if they already run Brass Squire.

>>46208808
nah, you don't get "when attacks" triggers with blade of selves because the tokens don't attack. you just put the token into play attacking.

voltron decks are definitely not where you'd want blade of selves anyway. it's so slow and really only strong when it is making you oodles of value right?
>how often am I even getting to attack with Aurelia and a good creature that does something on ETB to which I would have the time to attach an equipment?
can't be that often.

Please help me.
The meta at our LGS is super casual, low concentration of UGx goodstuff and Blue in general.
This guy showed up on a monday night with teferi 99 counters deck.
It ruined the whole night. We need a way to gear up our decks to hate him out and get our casual back. I need some hardcore anti-blue hate, and I need it now.

>>46208880
stop being shit at the game?
how the fuck does ONE person counter every spell from TWO or more opponents that just doesn't make sense. you guys are probably just garbage, instead of looking at your deck maybe you should think about how you play the game

>>46208877
>nah, you don't get "when attacks" triggers with blade of selves because the tokens don't attack. you just put the token into play attacking.
I know, hence the Brass Squire. You resolve Aurelia's trigger, then Myriad, legend rule the original Aurelia and any extra ones, keeping only one of the copies. You use Brass Squire to attach Blade of Selves to it. Then attack again with it during the second combat phase, at which point it will be the first time it attacked (since it was put in attacking, it never "attacked" for the purposes of Aurelia's triggered ability), causing another Aurelia trigger for another extra combat phase and repeating the process. Unless I got something wrong.

>>46208983
oh, well that specifically doesn't work because the tokens are exiled at end of combat, not end of turn.

>>46208983
Uh actually since they're put in tapped and attacking, you have to resolve Myriad before the Aurelia trigger. Same general idea but the order matters.

>>46208998
I knew I missed something. I kind of read Blade of Selves diagonally because I thought I already knew what it did. Don't do that kids, that's how you make up dumb combos that don't work.
