I learned to play around invasion. My first "good" casual U/B deck used 2 copies (all i owned so wanted a playset) of that card plus color changers like Sway of Illusion for one sided board wipes. Throw in some counterspells & Fact or Fiction and I accidentally baby's first control deck.

Anyone else have cards from when they first learned to play always sneak into their EDH decks?

With that last one? No, because Sundial explicitly says "end of turn" effects end when you use it

The only thing really pops in your Maybe is the Avatar, Malicious Affliction, and Reaper of the Abyss
But the deck looks solid so I don't know what to tell you

should i take out shriek for avatar? since it destroys target creature instead of target non black non artifact? or am i going about it wrong?

also considering pathbreaker out for reaper, but malicious i dont know what. also supposed to be on that block is v hexmage, so idk if i should add that or not as well

So I finally brewed up a list for pic related.

http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/kami-of-the-draw-spells/

It is basically exactly what you would expect. Only odd bit is I'm only running 28 lands total, with 8 ramp artifacts and a copy of Hide Tide.

Surprisingly enough, I have yet to have a hand that is not keepable. Any hand with at least two blue sources is an instant keep. And because of how much card draw I'm running, I actually have had trouble not hitting lands.

Anyways please give the deck a look. I'd appreciate any suggestions or critique. Hell, I probably missed some card or another that goes amazingly well with this little blue bugger.
>>
>>47856119
So, how does it win?
>>
>>47856273
By drawing cards my friend. And by making you draw cards.

Chasm Skulker
Ebony Owl Netsuke
Iron Maiden
Jace's Erasure
Laboratory Maniac
Psychosis Crawler
Rite of Replication
Sphinx's Tutelage
>>
>>47856273
>>47856301
With no hand size limit and Teferi's Puzzle Box you can suddenly be drawing quite a lot of cards every turn.
>>
>>47856119
35 lands are what you want for competitive decks.
That's the absolute minimum, 37-39 is what I usually run. My ultra polished daretti runs 35 lands.
Also don't be like that one guy who said one ritual is fine.
>>
So Blind Seer can change its own color. Does that mean protection wouldn't apply if you targeted something with protection from blue using its ability?
>>
>>47856352
Try doing some playtest with the deck on tappedout. It is actually amazing how little I worry about being able to hit a land drop.
>>
>>47856301
>>47856325
So, why not just use Nekusar instead?
>>
>>47856352
This guy's right, the lowest I go is 34 and that's only in my Mizzix where I'm running a giant pile of rocks and proliferating storage lands the whole game.
>>
>>47856379
Because that's overdone to hell. And I wanted to try Mono-Blue.

I know it's not the best there ever was, but it's fun.

>>47856352
If I am to put in more lands, what would you cut?

I actually almost took out the whole table with a Rakdos Charm with it's 1 for each creature effect. I had a Mogis on board and Furnace of Rath, everyone had been eating the 4 turn after turn, everyone had a few creatures, and life totals were low. The player in the lead had Nissa (Worldwaker) ready to ult. Had they ulted before combat to pull out all of their basic lands for elementals, the Charm would have dealt enough damage to win.

Loads of really competitive decks use 30-32 lands. They also run all legal moxen, dorks and 1-2 drop mana rocks to make up for it though.

Guys my playgroup doesn't play with commander damage. We follow pretty much every other rule but not the whole 21 commander damage is death. We generally play 4+ player FFAs so this is rarely and issue and it would be a big pain to keep track of everything. But at the same time it discourages certain decks since. I am working on building a boros deck and was going to use Kalemne but it seems like Aurelia or Gisela would be better given these rules.
Does anyone else play like this or has any experience convincing their group to play with commander damage?
>>
>>47858607
Oh yea ofc... That is a cool "mini"-combo. Damn... I had forgot Volraths ability and didnt look him up...
>>
>>47858545
Post deck desu

>>47856373
Yeah and my Arcanis got consistent T4 wins on tappedout.net

I'm sure there's some, but they would also have green which is not Kami colours.
>>47856416
Cut Puzzle Box, and most of the howling mine effects. You're not playing nekusar, and if you were this would be a shitty nekusar.
Drawing a shitton of cards is cute, but you need to win. Psychosis crawler is pretty good at that.
Add pact of negation, otherwise there's no real need to run tolaria west.
Add arcane lab because
>pic related
(thanks to whoever made that)
Turnabout lets you cast costly spells with high tide.
Cut the x-draw cards as well(except blue zenith) and add the more efficient draw cards; compulsive research, thirst for knowledge (add seat of synod), and whatnot.
Ghost quarter+Tec edge get rid of lands which is blues weak spot.
Rapid hybridization, reality shift, and pongify are also weak in multiplayer. Add things like evacuation on their place.
Arcanis+mind over matter is a good infinite combo (with a graveyard shuffle, ideally kozilek/ulamog but elixir of immortality works too) which can win with blue zenith.
Hope this helped a bit. Remember that commander isn't overloading on similar effects to your commander, because your commander does that already.
Howling mine can stay because 2cmc.
>>
>>47858806
You're pretty much alone here. Commander damage is a non-issue in almost every other playgroup. Change groups or hope the group spontaneously decides to play differently.
>>
>>47858806
I am disgusted every time I see these baby horse tentacles.
>>
>>47859045
Which howling mine effects to cut? All besides howling mine?
>>
>>47859100
As you said it is almost a non-issue. I was more asking if other groups do the same thing. As for changing groups I play with my good friends so that is not really an option. Plus there are few places around here that allow you to drink beer so I think I will just stick to playing at someone's residence.
>>
>>47857438
Also after checking the least I've seen on mtgtop8.com is 36 lands, and almost all green decks run 39, some run 38 or 37
>>
>>47859156
...that's French.
>>
>>47859193
Yea, and in multiplayer there would be more land destruction, so run more lands is me point

Mainly the colours, but she offers something to get gas if you start to fizzle, which makes her better than other grixis generals for the deck.
>>
>>47859262
We never really played with it when we started. Also when we have been drinking and playing a 5 person FFA it is a hassle to keep track of. Really the only commander in our meta it would be a big deal for is Uril and he has no interest in playing with it. It has been generally irrelevant but since I am making Nekusar and Kalemne I was thinking of bringing it up to them again.
>>
>>47859534
Fair enough, My group uses different colored spindowns dice to keep track of it, but given your case I can see why its something you haven't played with

Honestly, my kami doesn't win with damage, so I have no idea how well this will run. If it fails, do what I did, remove all spells that do damage And add as much control as you can. Run as many stasis effects as possible (back to basics, meekstone, winter orb, static orb, porticulus, stasis, arcane lab)

Run as much bounce as you can (c. Rift), and my diamond in the rough for Kami is turbulent dreams.

Best of luck!

If you are playing control, don't cut any of them, run horn of greed, howling mine, font of mythos, anvil of bogarden, temple bell, otherworldly atlas, then run windfall effects (Jaces archivist!) And make sure you are packing library of leng.

Mind over matter +temple bell/otherworldly atlas is a win con

If you are not running control and playing more like a blue nekusar, I have no idea how you should build

Unwinding clock+liquimetal coating is fucking disgusting. Just in case you don't get it, make Macar an artifact, tap him and an artifact to untap him, exiling a creature and getting a gold token. Repeat for board removal and a shitton of mana.
I'm debating on whether to build him or Zedruu first.

I think the easiest and most effective way to abuse macar is to make him into an artifact and use clock of omens to repeatedly untap him.

Sands of time + strionic resonator also works well

I plan on building Maelstrom soon. I just had a rules question about his double cascade. Say I cast maelstrom and cascade into blood braid elf. Would I resolve the second maelstrom cascade first or would I cascade off blood braid elf and cascade maelstrom afterwards?
>>
>>47866239
I think you bloodbraid before second maelstrom
>>
>>47866239

If the stack goes 1-2-3, 1 resolves first

When you cast maelstrom wanderer, here is the stack:

1-Cascade
2-Cascade
3-Maelstrom wanderer

When your first cascade finds bloodbraid elf and you cast that, here is the stack:

1-Cascade (BBE)
2-BBE
3-Cascade (MW
4-MW

Whenever a spell or ability is put onto the stack, it is put on top, that's why they call it the stack

Everything already on the stack must wait
>>
>>47866239
Speaking of which, if I were to copy Maelstrom Wanderer with Altered Ego with additionalcounters, does it cascade for Altered Ego's base cmc, how much i paid in mana, or Wanderer's cmc?
>>
>>47866349
>>47866274
Thanks! I built living end recently and sort of fell in love with cascade. I appreciate the clarification.
>>
>>47866421
I think due to the wording its whatever you payed for on Altered Ego. Not sure, Ive never been good with these kinds of rulings
>>
>>47866421
Ego isn't Wanderer while it is being cast so it doesn't cascade at all.
>>
>>47866421

None of the above

Altered ego becomes a copy of a creature, it does not copy the features of that creature that apply to it as a card or spell, after all, altered ego's features as a spell are determined by the card altered ego, just as maelstrom wanderer's are determined by his card

You get no cast triggers for creatures you copy with clones

Although clones are still creature spells so something like Karametra or glimpse of nature will trigger when you cast a clone
>>
>>47866421

To give you another case, altered ego is uncounterable when you cast it

but if altered ego was in your graveyard and you cast body double intending to copy it, that spell would still be counter able, (however, a clone doesn't become a copy of anything until it resolves anyway)

>>
>>47866770
Little thing called modern is what makes it so high. Felt good to get 5 foils before the hype
>>
>>47866887
That's gross

What happened in Modern to make it spike so hard? I don't pay much attention to other formats
>>
>>47866914
Infect is one of the top decks in modern, same reason why inkmoth nexus is ridiculous in price as well. Any card that does decent in a deck makes it somewhere in the top 32 is bound to spike a little, or in this case top 8.
>>
>>47866932
I feel like Inkmoth has always been on the pricier side, part of why I've been putting off buying one

I got mine for about $10 each whenni jumped on the memedern wagon, sold them for about $25 each a few months back, they are hovering around $30 now ($85 for foil)

Boros is still best though.

okay. fucking explain this to me please. golgari grave troll. dredge 6 is neat, but its a 0/0 body that comes into play with x +1/+1 counters, and 1 remove a counter to regenerate. how the fuck does this fit into any deck? i see no value in what he is. life from the loam i can see. stinkweed imp too. hell even golgari thug, shambling shell and nightmare void. but please. explain why is troll a "staple"?
>>
>>47869036
Because of the Dredge. And it's a high one too, so you get a bunch more stuff in the grave, it's not the body that's important, but abilities, usually.
>>
>>47869390
ah, i see. kinda dont get why not stinkweed imp, but i see.
>>
>>47869416
Because other one is rare and other common, and of course, it's gonna be big in decks with high creature count. And can be used to chump block for eternity with the regen ability. While it's a pretty vanilla creature, reusable big body is always nice.

*You're

But seriously, ranking Naya higher than Azorius is just plain wrong. Also the list doesn't even feature Esper. Bad tier list is bad.

I'm not saying the list doesn't rank UG highly enough, I am saying it's inconsistent, unhelpful and inaccurate.

If you're going to be a casual, at least be honest about it.

Actually, you're probably right. I just never heard of it and I went for the most logical explanation

The fuck is Identity Crisis EDH?

>>47870706
where you get a at least 2 color general, and only get multi color cards that fit that card's identity
>>
>>47870807
Y'know I actually thought about making gold card tribal with progenitus or child. I don't know why but I love multi-colored cards so much. Perhaps charm.dek would be more effective. Theres some weird multicolor maters tech from ravnica and alara block, it might be worth it as a for funsies deck.

How often do you guys netdeck instead of building your own deck? What is the process you go through for building your own EDH deck? Is it acceptable to just steal other decks/use the cards that EDHRec reccomends?

previous attempts at building a deck have failed, mostly. i dont think i understand how to really build a deck efficiently enough.

>>47871515

why should i wood elves over farhaven elf? wood elves are only really useful for shocklands, right?
>>
>>47871515
Edh is about building whatever you want, this includes netdecking. Anyone who says otherwise is an autistic snowflake crying about your wrong-fun.

People always bitch and moan about linear commanders that all play the same. Faggots who think the purpose of my deck should be to entertain them. They're the same people who use the "spirit of the format" as a bludgeon against decks they can't beat otherwise.
>>
>>47871515
I generally start with a color combination, theme, playstyle, work around commander, or something.

When I get the commander, I check the entire block it was in for synergistic cards before I turn to magic the gatherer on certain useful keywords and what not

Add in the staples

See if there is room for a sub theme

Manage land base and ramp artifacts

Check other decks listed to see if anyone found some super spicy deck tech or what not

Refine through playtesting

It's really dependent on the cost of your mana base, if it's budget than Farhaven fixes you since your mana may be shakey and fetches your budget basics, if you have shocks and duals Wood Elves fetches Bayou ect.

I often see legendary creatures and think, "I'm going to build a deck around that."

Then comes the research. I typically look at the ten highest-rated decks on tappedout using that legendary creature, and I look at all of the cards that are posted to see what kind of interactions there are between the cards. Then I compare the decks to each other to see what I like and what I don't like. From this point, it is all about shuffling around ideas, figuring out the other 99 cards, and figuring out my approximate cost to build.

I have also started using EDHrec to see what's commonly used with legendary creatures.

>>47873426

He's IMO the best Sultai commander. The rest are just the same selfmill/reanimate/combo.dec

Mindslaver's still a really fucking powerful effect in a multiplayer game, you can often leave them with pretty much nothing left to do on their next turn after potentially fucking up the other opponents. This Emrakul will be really good (but still worse than Mindslaver because it's harder to infinitely loop).

So i'm running Esper colors. Are there any reasons other than fiscal to not run Snapcaster Mage, Cryptic Command, Damnation, and Wrath of God?

I'm working on cutting down to my 99, and I'm having some difficulties with what to cut, the more I've cut the more I've lost the flavor of the deck for general effectiveness.

Rules question: I bring back say, something with a morbid effect, can i sac something in response to the ability bringing the creature back from the graveyard to play so the ability can trigger?

>>
>>47874604
As long as you have an effect to sac something at instant speed, sure.
>>
>>47874604
Abilities with a target can't trigger or be activated without having a target. You can't make a target in response to the ability.
>>
>>47874877
didnt mean it in that way, say i have sakura tribe elder, deadbridge chant and it triggered, bringing back, say reaper from the abyss or morkrut banshee if they are the only targets in the yard. when would i need to sac the sakura tribe elder to get the morbid trigger for that turn?
>>
>>47875010
Deadbridge Chant doesn't target, but that doesn't matter. You need to sacrifice elder before the morbid creature enters the battlefield, in the case of Banshee, or before end of turn, in the case of Reaper. If you want ETB morbid abilities, the creature will need to die before Deadbridge Chant triggers.
>>
Recent events on Innistrad have made me want to make a human tribal deck. Humans are my favorite tribe and Innistrad my favorite plane so I want to commemorate the good times.

>>47877065

3 turns in a row yeah, where one of them is spending 9-13 mana and nothing else, and another is maybe getting rid of some spells in your opponents hand (if they aren't already hellbent by the time you cast a 10 mana creature), and the third finally lets you swing once

Taking your opponents turn is super overrated when you get even tap your opponents creatures for a lethal crackback when your turn comes back

If your opponent is near hellbent newmrakul basically just gives your opponent an extra turn

It's complete and utter shit

If you don't have a flying creature to go with your emrakul you have no way of blanking a clip wings in their hand or that they might draw during either of their 2 turns before you get to play again

I'm not saying 13/13 flying isn't good beats but everything else about the card is shit, and you can find more efficient beats in standard and certainly better in edh

Didn't say nothing about main board

Game 1 emrakul still isn't that good because no guarantee you're able to live to 9 mana + delirium or nahiri ult

Game 2 you have to do that AND fight through clip wings

I don't expect newmrakul to see any play whatsoever in any format but I could be wrong

The shockland forest still require you to take the shock or they entered tapped anyways or if you have that artifact.

The twist is he won't be. Ugin is a pretty neutral party, and from that standpoint, Nahiri did something fairly smart to ensure that Emrakul got locked down, since she's obviously going to lock her up in the giant Helvault moon.

Sorin will be incredibly buttblasted, but of course, the irony will be that she did what he did to her home.

I cranked out a list for him, using a little bit of stax to stop spellcasts. Tell me what you guys think.

It's so amazingly mediocre. He's a pack alpha that does nothing for the pack. Flips, shoots something for 6 and potentially dies. ETB/flip gives +4/+4. It should have done something, somewhere form your whole team like Arlin.
>>
>>47880368
Any mana symbol on a card (EXCEPT FOR REMINDER TEXT, ie extort)

Counts to its color identity.

Yasova Dragon claw is Blue/Red/Green

Doesn't he gain an experience counter for each creature that have 2 or less power? With such a ton of 1/1 squirrel he'll gain a ton of counters to hand out afterwards to another creature

The experience counter is a seperate thing from nezuri, sortof like an emblem from a planeswalker

For experience counters, they get placed on you you the player not your creature, He's not like Kalmne who gets +1+1 for each counter, Ezuri gives counters to his allies at the beginning of combat.

I netdeck when i have a rough draft to see what other combos people have come up with that general, or other cards that work well. Especially when working with a new strategy/tribe that I'm not familiar with.

for example I run an Oloro stax deck, one list had Embargo in it. Wasn't a card that I thought of or came across while looking at Oloro synergy cards since most people build him lifegain/some kinda weird esper thing.
>>
>>47874522

Cryptic command is good but triple blue pips is a perfectly good reason not to run it in a tricolor deck

As far as board wipes go, if you're an all in creature based deck you can go without them, otherwise, yeah, the optimal list plays wrath and damnation (and toxic deluge, and cyc rift)

Snapcaster is really strong but not if you don't run instants and sorceries to flashback
>>
>>47874522
what commander?
>>
>>47881424
dakkon blackblade, its kind of my tax for playing esper in the local meta.

Would Munda ally tribal be decent? I need a 4th deck to lend out, and I don't have a White deck at all. He gives a little card advantage, and being ally-centric means I can focus most of my budget on good RW support cards because most of my creatures will be worth pennies.
>>
>>47881653
Jesus I forgot how bad he was
>>
>>47881653
If you're thinking of making a cheap boros tribal deck I really think you should consider alternates. Kalemne Soldiers or Giants might be a better call, Munda is hot trash.
>>
>>47881653
you realize he gives no card advantage at all right
>>
>>47881653
don't play munda, build mono white hatebears/stax
>>
>>47881791
Yes do this

Hokori or Thalia stax is the good shit
>>
>>47881006
They aren't placed on you either, they go in the command zone, just like emblems.

My inner Johnny is already finding interactions with werevolves and cards with abilities that don't caount as playing spells. Like cycling, channel, etc. so you can do stuff while transforming your guys. Oh, and lots of flash creatures and instants to avoid playing spells on your turn. I just got a semi thinking about this.
>>
>>47882219
OH, I know, if you need to flip your guys back, you can cast a flashback spell and flash it back.

...Shit, I don't have money for a new deck already.
>>
>>47881791
>>47881805

I've never built/played stax before, any tips/tricks? I also have only played white as a tertiary color, and never monocolored.
Hokori looks amazing, what sort of cards would I run with him/stax cards in general.
>>
>tfw Newrakul is not 5c deviod

>>47882395
here are some sample lists.
http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/kataki-wars-wage-edh-2/
http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/be-advised/
in general look for cards that deny the opponent of doing something(can't play stuff during your turn, pay extra for noncreature spells etc)
>>
>>47882405
We can only hope that we get a UBRG Devoid Eldrazi legend in C16. We wouldn't be able to run Displacer, but it's better than nothing.
>>
>>47882395
Keep your mana curve as low as possible, below 3 is ideal. Run rocks, and run a lot of them. Tax effects are great too: Spirit of the Labyrinth, Eidolon of Rhetoric, Aura of Silence, Silence, Thorn of Amethyst, stuff like that. Maybe a small Voltron package as a good finisher.

Drought is color specific but absolutely brutal, so if your meta is heavy on black slot that shit in

I was looking to get some feedback on my
Intet, the Dreamer (Duel Commander)

>http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/20-06-16-intet-the-dreamer/

Recent problems that I have had is going balls deep on life and 3/10 times not having a necessary counterspell.

Probably asked a million times, but:

Is mtg online worth getting? I wanna try out Magic, but at this point don't want to do it irl.

If not, what's the best option?
>>
>>47883718
MTGO can be a massive money sink, I'd suggest picking up duels of the planeswalkers 2013 or 2014 on steam. Decks are pretty limited, but it will give you a decent look at the mechanics without blowing a lot of cash.

I know a few people that have a few thousand into MTGO.

The buy in for MTGO is 10 bucks, and probably another 20 if you want to build a pauper deck.

Commander is casual, but its not really the most beginner friendly format, tends to have more complex interactions than pauper or standard.
>>
>>47883718
Magic Duels is free, try it and see if you enjoy it

EDH is probably not the best format to start with because board states can get insanely convoluted very quickly
>>
would i really suffer if i cut sol ring out of my deck?
>>
>>47884076
depends on the deck
>>
>>47884076
If you accept that sometimes other people are going to get their Sol Ring turn 1 and go off, while you can never do so, then it shouldn't hurt you too badly.
>>
>>47884095
http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/the-great-cycle-v20/

i dont think it would be bad if i did, but at the same time, im unsure
>>
What is the most you are willing to pay for an EDH deck? I find that I will usually buy a super budget deck (around $30 or so) then upgrade it over time to around $300. It seems unimaginable for me to spend more than $300 on a deck though. What do you guys do? What's the most you've spent on a deck?
>>
>>47884630
I will usually pick up the commander and then slowly build from the ground up, I don't really have a limit, I just buys things over time or when I can get a deal.
For example I got a $12 Force of Will. (not in a pack)
>>
>>47884122
Wdh is pretty much sol ring + 99 its just way too powerful to not have and you will be hurting the deck if you remove it, especially since in this case you want a t2 meren
>>
>>47884657
I want to do this but then I run into the problem of me wanting to play the commander but not having all of my deck assembled to do so.
>>
>>47884630
Tappedout had my kaseto deck at 650 from tcgplayer

and my dakkon blackblade deck at around 1600.
>>
>>47884672
Well I kinda miswrote that. I will make the commander and use whatever I have lying around until I can buy things.
>>
>>47884630
I got an ezuri precon and added to it, its upto about $900 mainly because of the foils but still only has normal staples (and no fow or tropical island) my derevi stax is about $600 no foils (also no duals, moat, karakas, mana drain, fow etc etc)
>>
>>47884630
Hokori is my most expensive at around $350. The others are around $100-200

God I hate this hobby
