Yes, actually. Unless you can pay a cost that sacs enough thrulls to put you to less than seven, the trigger will just keep going off. Check the gatherer rulings.

>>47755908
I wonder if they played around a little more with the exile-play thing it could be better. Something like exiling more cards at once but not playing all of them.
>>
>>47755871
Yep

Unless you can bring it down to less than 7 Thrulls at instant speed in response to the trigger, it will go off forever

You know how you can imagine the worst about people online when you don't have to see them face to face. How you can imagine their self serving thought process through the filtered pure and direct information you get with an electronic medium?

If you've ever thought the worst about someone then just do that, but multiply it several times over. Only then will you have something approaching a standard magic player in real life.

Plus they have all the cards you can't afford.

Been out the card game circuit for a while now. There was a Game of Thrones card game I played a few years back where a certain deck archetype was all about resource denial: either lowering the opponent's resources to the point of making it impossible for them to play stuff, while keeping your own stuff cheap and playable, or outright stealing resources from other players to use as your own.

Is there anything that can do this in MTG/EDH? It was the biggest asshole deck in the format and it was rewarding as fuck to play. Really tough to pilot well and really fun
>>
>>47756190
You could probably go down a few lands. Night Soil is pretty spicy though, gonna steal this idea for my own deck
>>
>>47756669
Yes. That style of deck is quite possible in MtG. It is somewhat more difficult to pull off in EDH due to it's generally multiplayer focus but can still be done well.

This link should provide you with most of what you'll need to get started.

http://www.mtgsalvation.com/forums/the-game/commander-edh/204260-the-stax-primer
>>
>>47756669
In M:tG it's called Stax. Stax is a polarizing strategy in some social circles because it's an example of one of the ways you can "break" EDH. EDH is wide open and the banlist is not intended to prevent every possible dick move like the way banlists from competitive formats are made. It's unquestionably effective in high-power games provided you don't get hated out.

I actually like the assault suit idea as a way to force people to not cast spells lest they make the game a draw.

Sure there's going to be the duckweed that does anyway but a way in mono black to stop people from casting creatures is cute
>>
>>47755809

Wheels are the best way to go besides Skull Clamp, which is easy to fuel with things like Kher Keep and Trading Post.

>>47755955
>>47755908

I've actually had pretty good experiences with the exile mechanic, particularly with Chandra/Outpost Siege. However, Commune with Lava is really good because it's until your NEXT turn.

>>47757152
Gary and Kokopuff recursion seems like the best way to win without infinites. That said, you might just be better off going for a different commander and moving Mike to the 99 if you're just using him for value and not trying to go infinite.

Anything I should add? I asked last thread and got a few good suggestions for wincons. Does this Abzan Goodstuff have good enough stuff? I might add Midnight Guard+Presence of Gond Combo for the sake of it, but I'm not sure that's even good enough to add.

I want it to, to be honest but
>Fire magic is strictly banned, and pyromancy punishable with a death sentence.
>>
>>47757392
I have those two but you have a point. It's a recursion deck that is surprisingly hard to win with without Triskelion.
>>
>>47757573
There were red artificers in Origins though. That one uncommon that gave artifact creatures haste was red and pretty good
>>
>>47757573
Red isn't just fire. It's also passion and invention. Kaladesh is ripe for red creatures that show other sides to the color. Stuff like Felden of the Third Path
>>
>>47757580
Maybe try mono Sidisi in the command slot instead. She can get you Mikaeus on curve if he's what you want, but lets you build more of a toolbox deck. Also she works great with recursion herself.
>>
>>47757561
I made this almost exact same deck with the same support of +1/+1 counters and its really slow and easy to kill you may want stuff like fleece-mane lion and stuff like rootborn defenses and Golgari charm to keep your board safe from wraths.
>>
Is there a way to reliably flicker Hokori during your turn so you can untap all your lands, then bring him back EOT to affect the board again?
>>
>>47757703
Ah, golgari charm! I knew i was forgetting something obvious. Thank you for reminding me! Fleecemane Lion seems like a really solid option, too. Thanks! Does anything stand out as prime material to be cut out? I'm having a hard time seeing what is sub-par for the general strategy.
>>
>>47757760
Eldrazi Displacer?
>>
>>47757790
Doesn't work. Hokori will always be present for his ability to trigger.
Something that keeps things gone till end of turn would work though.
>>
>>47757595
>>47757627
Fuck me running but you are right. Still, imo artifact creatures with devoid would be interesting
>>
>>47757561
Unburial Rites is better than Zombify, I believe.
The same goes for Ambition's cost, unless you think opponent losing 3 life from Harrowing Journey would matter.
>>
>>47757760
Roon might be your best bet, but I'm assuming you want Hokori as your general

Skybind could probably work if you're running some pillowfort-y stuff
>>
>>47757848
My bad, misread Displacer. Try Flickerform then.
>>
>>47757760
'walker Venser is entirely capable of this. Shame that there aren't many effects that have a delayed return on the flicker, but I imagine it'd be incredibly easy to abuse if they did
>>
>>47757878
Ah, right. Ambition's Cost is much better. Unburial Rites too. Maybe add Entomb and something like Dread Return, to create a secondary Reanimator strategy that's easier to set up.

>>47758391
You sac your creature as a part of the cost, so it's impossible to respond.
>>
>>47758391
Sac is part of the cost, by the time they get priority the creature is already dead.

With a shitty rule like that I'm gonna assume it's a very casual meta. Personally I'd still use triskelion, but I wouldn't go infinite. Remove all the counters pinging things, then use him as a chump blocker. Or use him with limited sac outlets like High Market and Vampiric Rites. It's still tons of value, you just don't combo out. If anyone calls you on that shit you could act like you had no idea it could be infinite in the first place.

I personally don't like Tears for 2 reasons:
1) Fatal Frenzy is better with Zada, since it's cheaper, gives trample, and is harder to counter
2) On it's own Tears is a smaller pump than the rest of my spells, giving somewhere between 1 and 4 power. If I had other pump spells and the mana to use them along with Tears it just seems like a winmore spell with a huge downside should they have a fog. Compare it to overblaze, which is the same CMC, has splice (if your build can take advantage of it it's surprisingly relevant), does effectively the same thing with zada out, and has no downside.

He can be strong but honestly he's better in the 99 of a GAA4 deck. Build what you want though, that's half the fun of the format

Definetly.
Putrefy is solid.
Trostani's Summoner for blink or token deck.
Sudden Reclamation for Sidisi or Gitrog or Hua Tuo dredge.
Pontiff of Blight for goodstuff, token or big mana deck.
All other card range from meh to okay.

Because it reeks of close minded fools, either you or your opponents, if your opponents all have only 1 deck and they all play the same color, you have a shit playgroup but I'd understand you want to run a card that is good against them

It just seems like bad card design to me, the card is either useless or perfect, depending on facts outside your control, that is not good card design

Good players play all 5 colors and good metas have balanced colors to a certain extent
>>
>>47764318

And when I say "perfect" I mean "unfairly overpowered, a complete blowout"

It's bad design to have cards that are either useless or overpowered depending on things outside your control

Do any of you actually have fun winning that way? You only force your opponent to play a different color and make your card useless

it's different if you play edh with sideboards, then it's quite reasonable to pack these in your sideboard

>>
>>47764935
So your LGS is shit. Mine sells everything at MSRP.
>>
>>47764946

Mine sells most things at msrp, because wotc has the foresight to not make their products worth more than the msrp

In fact I spoke incorrectly, if fetchlands were in the C15, you wouldn't be able to buy them for any price, the stores would simply open then and take out the fetches, then sell you the individual cards

This is geared more towards 1v1 with lots of smaller guys. Otherwise if you play it as a pseudo combo deck with blinking allies to trigger their etbs.

>>
>>47765615

Because they want to nickel and dime a mass circulation product with a massive print run. It's not like charging $80+ for FTV:X since it is extremely limited.

If they hypothetically do that to their product, then you hypothetically don't support it because it's asinine.
>>
>>47765804

What's asinine about taking basically the number 1 most in demand cards in all of magic and selling them individually?

a much smaller number of people care about the commander precons than the number who care about enemy fetches, they would make way way more money by selling the fetchlands than they would by marking up the commander decks to account for $50 cards in them

And if they didn't mark them up, they'd be literally throwing away money

I'm not understanding your view here at all

In this hypothetical scenario the only asinine party would be wotc for printing $50 cards in a starter product like a commander precon meant to all for 30-40

I usually avoid playing or advise playing all of x guys in a tribal deck, because most of them suck, see merfolk as one example, treefolk as another.
Some people when building tribal just go in magiccards.info, type in the subtype the tribe, and add all creatures of that type.
Why I'm doing this with allies, is because their synergies require you to have a good amount of allies to be really strong, whereas some of the elf or merfolk or whatever tribe don't need that many.

When I said "poliitcs" I more or less referred to how I played him. What I usually try and do is strike deals with people about who gets the lightning bolts and stuff like that if that makes sense.

As for Marath, Xenagos, and Mayael, all three have similar themes but different playstyles in my opinion. Marath is all about casting Marath for either counters or tokens, Xenagos is about doubling up creatures and making them bigger than they already are, and Mayael is leaving that shit to luck and just top decking creatures. That being said, I'm a huge fan of Green/Gruul and fat monsters so that's why I built Xenagos and Marath.
>>
>>47767532

Marath can definitely be unique but Xenagod and mayael seem very very similar and it just seemed weird that you would build the same deck again just in a slightly diff color combo when you've already made that color combo

You do you tho, I barely find time to play all my decks anyway and I only have 4 currently, like you
>>
>>47767568
Explain to me how Xenagos and Mayael seem very similar because I don't see it. Xenagos is all about adding multiplying counters to your already-big creatures while Mayael is just topdecking big creatures and putting as many onto the board as fast as possible. Two entirely different strats.
>>
>>47767630
maybe they're similar in the "BIG CREATURE SMASH LITTLE MAN FACE" play style
>>
>>47761152
Kuon?
>>
>>47767630
This exactly
Xenophobe is ramp into fatties and turn them sideways
Mayael is "oh boy i hope i topdeck a fatty with cmc 6 or greater and put it into play" then turn them sideways

Mayael is my casual fun times multiplayer deck for when i really dont want to think
>>
>>47767648
Ok I can see that
>>47767693
When you put it that way they are similar but I think that's just oversimplifying it. The key difference between the two imo is that Xenogos multiplies the power and toughness of a creature by putting counters on it while Mayael doesn't and just tries to amass as many biggies as she can.

>>47767864
>At the beginning of combat on your turn, another target creature you control gains haste and gets +X/+X until end of turn, where X is that creature's power.
Basically doubles a creature's toughness and power.

The ability has nothing to do with counters, though.

I was like "let's build zombie tribal that sounds fun" but then I realized i didn't have enough relevant zombies to actually do that and just filled in the missing spaces with random shit.

Win conditions are rooftop storm + gravecrawler + sac outlet abuse like every other grimgrin deck, or rite of replication + gary.

I actually run Geth in one of my other EDH decks and I tend to get annoyed at how stupid the other players get. Seriously. A Geth drops and suddenly everyone assumes it's there shit I want to target.

Yes, I'm planning on stealing your clone to clone the only high value creature (my Geth) when the other player has an Eternal Witness and my graveyard is full of good shit which I can get back for much cheaper.

It's not like you should hold mana open for the counterspell for the Craterhoof Behemoth you know that other guy is holding.

Seriously. It sometimes seems like in multiplayer EDH people react violently to anything that MIGHT be a threat until they're out of answers. then I die while I'm the only one dealing with actual threats. Then a random person wins because everyone fired off every answer in their hand and they had the last threat standing.
>>
>>47766907
If theyre ramping into tooth and nails use reiterate and forks to win before it finishes casting. Ramping into fatties is punished by bribery, stolen goods ect ect. Also dumping lands for effects/mana advantage is beaten by balance and armagedon and such. Craterhoof is also busted by blind obedience and extort makes it a sweet value card on top. I guess fulminator, strip mine and wasteland get honorable mentions for blowing out specific lands.

The guy seemed rather new, he didn't know what some of his cards did, so after the game I explained to him how giving me Aggressive Mining broke the symmetry of MLD and let me take advantage of it. I'm actually thinking about adding it to my decklist after getting Donated it, though I don't like that once I cast it I have pretty much no way to get rid of it in mono-red. Anyone have experience running Aggressive Mining?

>>47768569
I have no experience myself with it, but I've been thinking about card draw in mono red decks and Mining + Walking Atlas seems to fit the bill.

Turn it into an artifact and sacrifice it. Revoke Existence on it (or whatever the colorless exile instant is). I'm pretty sure there are a few artifacts that will destroy enchantments for you.

I'm kind of pissed at the five signets I run in 5 color. The timing restriction of their use is more relevant than I had anticipated.

So, I'm considering replacing them with Talismans. However, with 10 shocks, City and Confluence, I've definitely hit myself for more than ten in games already.

Would I be better off adding 5 cards like Commander's Sphere and Prismatic Lens? I already run Ingot and Lantern.

I run a mostly preconstructed Roon blink shenanigans deck and for a long time ran an esper control/combo deck with merieke as commander.

I changed my Esper deck to a Zur voltron/stax deck, with more emphasis on creatures.

I use stax effects to slow the game down in my favor but don't do locks, for this reason I run about 12 creatures one of which being Bruna, just in case Zur becomes targeted too many times.

Zur decks build themselves practically but I still think that Narset builds just as bad if not worse decks and doesn't get nearly as much hate as Zur.

>>
>>47766730
Yea, slivers are better. I just like Tazri because allies are ______fun______
You can even play Sliver Queen storm/combo, whereas Tazri somewhat forces you to play Allies.
And with Slivers as you said, most are ok or good, leaving you to cut out only the jankest jank, as well as being cheap. Whereas the good Allies are highly costed, meaning you have to play the shittier Allies to trigger the Ally etb effects.
Single allies are better standalone though, Talus Paladin can grow to large sizes and still compete with the board on its own in a way Telekinetic Sliver just can't. How you get left with only one guy I don't know. Seems a bit unlikely to me.

Not sure if serious.

A two-card combo that needs 6+ turns to win and depends on the graveyard is tame. I would really like to see how your group would respond to cathar's crusade + assemble the legion.
>>
>>47773829
the problem isn't any two card combo winning in X amount of time, I'm sorry you couldn't interpret beyond what I wrote because your intellect is inferior, the problem is gary is a brainless inclusion into any black deck that becomes a problematic game ending threat all on it's own once any type of graveyard recursion occurs, which every single Bx deck has plenty of.

What are you talking about? He's a 5 mana sorcery on a stick that depends heavily on board presence. There are 10 trillion ways to make sure he doesn't blow up the board when he comes out, and that's not including just countering him as soon as he's cast.

Do you have any experience running him? I can already see bouncing a blocker during combat, declaring the blocker in their hand once damage is dealt, and searching for something sexy while my opponent pouts.
>>
>>47774453
No personal experience, but I know Isperia works pretty decent as a toolbox commander using creatures that also have flying. Consecrated Sphinx, Sphinx of Uthuun, Brago are some useful fliers.
Other than that, the occasional way to see someone's hand with Telepathy effects, and ways to keep fliers in control (Teferi's Moat for budget, or Moat if you have the cash).
After you've built the core, pad it out with cantrips/removal/counters and you're golden.
>>
>>47774514
>brago has flying
Wow, why didn't I know that?

Thanks anon, you've given me inspiration for a very fun deck. After a quick look on edhrec, I have a lot of useful things already, like Sphinx of Evos Isles and Thunderclap Wyvern. The only thing that I'm leery of is the very specific devotion for the commander, versus the high devotion costs of some fun things I'd like to run, but that's a pretty easy problem to solve.
