Would he be good in a Orzhov taxes deck? He seems less useful than Ayli, but I really do like the constant drain you get just by having him on board.

People are underestimating this guy. He'd be a great aggro and politics commander. Play a lot of political cards, have some ways to use all the extra life as a resource, play some staxy stuff like kataki/thalia/ect to deal with the unfair decks, and don't make the wrong enemies, and this would definitely be a strong deck.

But you can also give your opponents things to hit each other with and find ways to discourage hitting you. Second part is a bit more difficult to do outside of Red/White but in G/U I'm sure you can find some ideas.
>>
>>49245010

I still don't see what that has to do with your commander, as long as your deck has some amount of removal/counterspells or other targeted disruption of some kind, you can be a fag and not remove your friends stuff because you made an alliance

>>
I need help with alters, folks.

I have a Blightsteel Colossus and Scion of Ur Dragon I want to alter.

My first theme is to have Scion be the Dragonzord, and Blightsteel be either the megazord or that sweet ass pirate one from Gokaiger.

The unrelated ideas are:
Blightsteel as Metal Gear Rex
Blightsteel as Gypsy Danger
Blightsteel as Jehuty from Zone of the Enders

Scion as Fin Fang Foom
Scion as Iron Fist with a swirling dragon
Scion as Bahamut from either FFXIII-2 (best frontal shot) or FFIX
Scion as Volvagia from Ocarina of Time

This is dumb, and autism at its finest, I know. But the struggle is real here.

What about gundams? I think Blightsteel as The O could be pretty cool. You could also do him as the Iron Golem from Dark Souls. Alternatively, you could do it as a shitty robot drawn by a child.

Scion could be neat as Kalameet from Dark Souls 1.

I just dumped $70 on Cardkingdom to get parts for my OldSelvala and Queen Marchesa, I already had most of the stuff for Selvala from the Daxos precon leftovers but Marchesa's gonna be a shitbrew at the moment using whatever I can find plus stuff I got from my Take the Crown precon.

I really like pic related and want to build a deck around her, but I don't want to spend $600. Anyone have recommendations for legendaries on the cheaper side and good non legendaries that synergize well with her to build a budget Sisay deck?

Or is it just not possible?
>>
>>49248091
If you want a cheapish fun legendary deck you should probably just play Reki or something.
>>
>>49248117
What makes him more cheap/fun if his effect still revolves around legendaries?
>>
>>49248140
White legendaries are quite a bit more expensive on the reg than green
>>
>>49248175
So then in theory couldn't I just build Sisay but focus more on the green legends than the white ones and still have a deck priced in more or less the same range?
>>
>>49248140
The expensive legendaries are the Ionas, the linvalas, the elesh Norns. Also a good Sisay deck really needs Gaea's Cradle. All green decks do but it has extra synergy in Sisay that makes it hard to play without it
>>
>>49248206
I don't think you understand what Sisay does. Sisay doesn't care about legendaries as a theme. You don't just play all legendaries in Sisay. You play a few powerful legendaries that you tutor up.
>>
>>49248140
One thing I found that makes Reki more fun is that he is low key. Sisay paints a target and is rightfully met with removal at every turn. And if she isn't dealt with, she ends up tutoring up something crazy powerful and just stomping.

Reki on the other hand just gives you a few cards every turn. He's likely to make it back around. And since he fills your hand up, when your boardstate of dudes gets wiped, you're fine.
>>
>>49246421
I've had some absolutely brutal t1 Workshop plays in this deck.
http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/i-wish-braids-was-legal/
>>
Reki and Sisay build into totally different decks anyway. Sisay plays a toolbox. That just means you play the choicest legendaries and pull them out as needed. That's what makes her on the expensive side.

Reki is a different deck that's more like, say, Legendary tribal. You play all the legends because they all draw you cards. He doesn't necessarily care about the quality of the legend like Sisay does.

>tfw I can't make a 75% deck
>>
>>49248420
Best way to do this would be to take a commander with a gimmick but make it the best you can and go uber spike with the gimmjcm. Vela would be a good one to do that with. Don't know where you got colorless tribal from for her.
>>
>>49248461
Vela makes colorless creatures only blockable by artifact creatures. I combine that with lots of enchantments and artifacts with "whenever equipped creature/a creature you control deals damage to an opponent, do xyz" effects. Like I said, painfully casual, but it's either that or Krond enchantress when no one else is playing cutthroat tryhard decks
>>
>>49248524
That's pretty unnecessary. You don't need to use colorless creatures to make her ability good.
>>
>>49248420
Can you post the brutal decks? I've been looking for something to punish myself and others with
>>
>>49248579
It is just a neat little synergy. It surprises people.

That's half the fun of casual deckbuilding. Like how banding and geist of saint traft synergize. Kind of.
>>
>>49248624
If you just look out that gimmick and played creatures that have built o
in combat triggers and ninjutsu as well as good creatures in general with some sac, blink, and bounce synergy and such you could build a much more tuned deck that's still not that punishing.

He's very meh. Teysa does the syphoning much better because she's an actual Aristocrats commander, and if you wanna play archenemy control better add red and play Queen Marchesa, or blue and play Oloro. This guy is the Commander equivalent of the guy in HS who thought he could manipulate the bully and got beat up.

Riku is all about doing combos to win.
Feldon would be all "when this card dies effects"
Grenzo would be weenies and evasion.
Depala is podracing and using cards that had benefits when untapped.
The other two are there because who knows what the fuck they will do.

If anyone has a deck idea based on what I posted that I should do by all means let me know. I guaranteed want my next deck to avoid blue.

I run Riku using fatties and big, flashy spells. I want to include goblin Electromancer, planning on getting at least two of him out, if not ten using a copied kicked rite of replication.

Do you have a Grenzo list I could look at?
>>
>>49249159
Granted my Riku is geared more to combo off and outvalue I think that fatties are not something you should focus on.
I am all for the idea of running things that cheapen your big spells so you can get much farther ahead.
If creatures are the "focus" I would maybe 32 or so.
Cards like Selvala's Stampede and Wild Pair would come in handy.
If you want to look at my deck here is a link. It is currently in it's 3rd "iteration".

What are the cards between Endrek Sahr and Comet Storm?
>>
>>49248091

Here's my decklist
http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/heros-gallery/?cat=type

Tappedout says its $750, I certainly didn't pay that much, but even if you have none of these cards and have to buy them all now at their current inflated prices, here's what you can cut:

>Gaea's cradle
The deck is now $600, with this in my deck, I rarely tutor for nykthos, but nykthos does its damndest as a substitute
>Linvala
I only tutor for this in very specific situations, a huge portion of my games this is very low impact, deck is now $550
>Avacyn
I have this for flavor and because it's a FTV foil at this point, the card just does nothing in my meta, deck is now $520
>craterhoof
You can try the new decimator of provinces, or go with kamahl, tutorable with sisay, deck is now $500
>Vorinclex
I just like to have to a legendary mana doubler, this card is not essential, deck is now $480
>Gaddock teeg
I have to admit this one is tough to part with but at the same time, there ARE occasions where I want to cast chord of calling but he's cockblocking me, deck is now $460
>flagstones and pendelhaven
Completely unnecessary, only so that I have comes in untapped W/G sources I can find with sisay, deck is now $440
>tooth and nail
This card is ridiculous but you don't REALLY need it, I play the game mostly at instant speed anyway, deck is now $420

I can tell one of them is Horde of Notions.

I've got a better idea for a Nebuchadnezzar deck.

>>
>>49249900
On second thought, that deck might be better with Dakkon or Sol'kanar at the helm.
>>
>>49249720
Unfortunately I don't have it on hand but I can tell you the gist of it.
I played a lot of the U and R take your opponent's shit cards like.
Bribery, Teachery, Corrupted Conscience, Mind Control, Control Magic, Desertion, Act of Treason, Act of Aggression, Word of Seizing, Traitorous Blood ect.

Then I ran a lot of annoying and pillow fort shit.
Norn's Annex, Ghostly Prison, & Propaganda for example.

Then usual suite of donate trash.
Statecraft, Oblivion Ring, Pacifism, Arrest, Rest in Peace, Banishing Light, Detention Sphere and shit like those. That help you but at the same time doesn't give a shit about who controls them.

Then a couple cheap 2 mana counter spells to stop people from destroying things or taking their shit back.

And a couple land destruction things like Pillage and Stone Rain in case some asshole brought Homeward Path to the party.

Only 4 creatures (other than Zedruu herself)
Baazar Trader, Gisela Blade of Goldnight, Consecrated Sphinx, and Humble Defector.

She is basically Krampus with tits.
>>
>>49249979

Gisela is a weird choice
>>
>>49249838
Like Zedruu I don't have the full list.
But I ran nearly every artifact that makes life miserable when trying to kill Kiki-Jiki.
Greaves, SFBoots, Whispersilk Cloak, and Darksteel Plate for example.

Gamble was essential. It was always to get Zealous Conscripts or protection for Kiki if I already had conscripts.

Of course Zealous Conscripts.

Then you can filter through you library easily by copying your Humble Defector, Solemn Simulacrum, Magus of the Wheels ect.

Manic Vandal and his ilk blow up their Sol Rings and Gilded Lotus ect.

Warstorm Surge guarantees damage for EVERY Kiki activation.

Shit like Spawn of Thraxes could chop the table in half being copied.

Same with Fanatic of Mogis.

Duplicant and his ilk eat their boards.

Once the Kiki engine is rolling he is a literal toolbox of answers.

He's the most blue and red card has ever been. His power is insane.

It takes teamwork to keep him down.

Just lay low early game dropping your rocks and your doublers like Extraplanar Lens and Gauntlet of Might.
Even if he dies it's easy to recast him with one of those on the field.
>>
>>49250081
Gisela seems weird.
But she was a late addition. As my Zedruu was so controlling that sometimes I would have the other players in a state where it was difficult for them to kill me. But I was killing them slowly. Gisela simple expedited that process.
And she functioned as another pseudo pillowfort with her damage reduction.
>>

I mean the Praetors took over right?

I would assume and anything surprising happens it would be the Phyrexians showing up in Aether Revolt. The Praetors. Not Karn.
But even that is a stretch.

The Aether Revolt is most likely something to do with Liliana & Chandra helping the Aetherborn take down the Counsel or something like that.
The Gatewatch isn't getting "Slapped Down" anytime soon. It's magic's version of the Avengers. The are going to win at everything until maybe they decide to go after Nicol Bolas.

How about Selenia, Dark Angel?
>>

Mostly yes.
Just mass amounts of card draw, disruption, and protection for Shu Yun.
You'll also want all of the annoying protecting equipment. Lightning Greaves, Swiftfoot Boots, Darksteel Plate, Whispersilk Cloak ect...
Maybe not Greaves or Cloak if you want direct pump instead of just the incidental pump.

Also Spectra Ward is must.

Not worth a greentext, but long story short I left the deck out and a 17 year old cunt stole it out of spite. Lost about 600 dollars and the police aren't doing shit to catch the kid. We have video proof and know what his name is but the cops are being lazy.

Anyone got suggestions for U/R GY hate? Currently using Burn Away, which I've so far played as a burn spell usually with a powerful upside, rather than hold it until I need to respond to a reanimation spell. I usually cast it to burn out a creature under the control of a guy with a fat GY or just as removal in a pinch. Also using Stream of Consciousness, which has also won me games by Streaming away a combo piece in my GY and Mystical Tutoring for it EOT.

I played Selenia and I had zero reason to use any other personal drain because of how impossible it is to stop yourself from draining your life by holding priority.

If you must, you can use stuff like Phyrexian Processor, Plunge into Darkness, Wall of Blood, Mischievous Poltergeist, Unspeakable Symbol, Martyrs Tomb, Kuro Pitlord, ect. There are tons of options.
>>
How is the Oloro starter? I've always been interested in Esper, and he seems neat.
>>
>>49250668
I mean, if you're not trying to build a tuned Sisay deck and really want the WG then yeah do whatever you want I guess. Just know the kind of deck you built there isnt really what she's good at. There's no need to play a bunch of legendaries when you can play a bunch of the best cards most of which aren't legendary plus all the best legends which are in small amount comparatively but tutorable with Sisay so hownmany you play doesn't matter. The kind of deck you built there is something Reki is better at.
>>
>>49250857

Honestly this shit is all relative, to true competitive spikes, captain sisay is too durdly and slow and vulnerable of a strategy, she's made for people who've been playing forever and want to show off a great collection of big legendaries from throughout magic history

But then there's you, you probably haven't been playing forever, so a casual deck that costs $500 doesn't make sense

What's some spicy sac tech for Vish Kal, I have a couple of ideas
>>
>>49251175
He would be if that mattered in my Kiki deck.
But often I have Solemn Simulacrum, Magus of the Wheel, or Humble Defector out.
And I can refill my hand each turn for essentially free.
Kiki is far more effective at card draw than any other mono red commander.

>>49250836
You reminded me that Splinter Twin is a dollar rare now and that I need to pick one up

Thanks

>>49251204

I used to think about transforming my sisay deck into reki or Karametra (because I tutor those first all the time), but then I realized, I can just tutor them first every time, except when I don't want to, when I need to tutor a silver bullet first

But you can't do that if your commander is reki or Karametra, you always tutor for them first every time, so to speak
>>
>>49251249

Zada is pretty good at card draw

But yeah, please do list some more of your kiki jiki card draw synergies

Is it even close to worth selling to CFB buylist? No one has shit in their binders around me for trade and I want a bunch of stuff, I have expensive garbage with no place in any of my decks rotting in my binder.
>>
>>49251271
Yeah that's how I'm feeling too.
>>
>>49251286
Buylisting cards usually isn't worth it. If you have expensive stuff you don't want, then your best bet is probably eBay Even if it's more work on your end, you will make way more from your cards that way.
>>
>>49251271
To be fair most of the silver bullets are white anyway with a few exceptions like Teeg and Dosan. Reki is more like a glimpse of nature ish play dudes draw cards play more dudes then overrun type thing.
>>
>>49251286

Ehh, it's likely no better or worse on average than what the average LGS will give you, it's better if you're friends with an LGS owner or associate

Do you have a network of friends who play magic? Fuck trades, ask if any of them want expensive cards at a great price, you can get much more money than CFB or your LGS will give you from your friend while still hooking your friend up with prices much cheaper than TCG mid

Expensive cards are usually expensive because of demand so it's likely that your friends might want a good number of them
>>
So, I wanna start with Commander on a bit of a budget and I like Doomsday/storm decks. Should I be going for Sidisi ANT?
>>
>>49251332

True yeah, but my sisay deck actually plays more like a "glimpse of nature, play dudes, draw cards, play more, then overrun" deck anyway, it plays like a Karametra or reki deck would, I built it that way because I didn't want to rely on sisay so much and I prefer to use her only as either removal bait if I'm ramping hard early, or as a late game finisher after I get my opponents to blow all their removal and board wipes

So I finally got the rest of my cards in for him today, and my first game was hilarious.

I pretty much locked people out of the game with Reassembling Skeleton, Grave Pact, and Sadistic Hypnotist. Had both Crypt Ghost and Jet Medallion out to.

Was playing against Trostani and Zada. Neither could keep creatures on the board to do anything lol.
>>
>>49244445
I don't like him because:
Life gain is bad. No one gives a fuck if you gain a bajillian life. My combo will still kill you regardless of how much life you get, my commander will cock punch you to death, infect will poison you to death, mill works just fine too, ect.

Life lose is also bad. The only life point that matters is your last one. I will gladly pay all my life if it means I get to kill the player making me waste my resource of life.

As part of a better commander (like karlov for example) he is fine, but he will never be better as his own deck. In Eternal formats I do see him getting played.

I want to build a 75% deck, something fun and sorta casual. I already have a Talrand spellslinger and Rakdos Eldrazi decks that are fun, but are super tuned and brutal. I'm looking for a more variety style of commander, with more interesting ways to play out side of a single gimmick. Something I can work on over a year or two, collecting cards here and there.

My criteria would be
>75% style deck, so I can have fun refining it over a year or two and really put my all into it without it becoming degenerate.
>Relatively budget to get started, no insanely pricey cards that are NEEDED to make the deck work
> Think $100 start up for the basic core of the deck, ignoring commander. I'm fine paying for a unique one if its good enough. I can buy the fancy lands and the expensive finishers/optimized versions later down the road.
>Not a sac engine deck (Already have 5 of these in my playgroup)
>More then one gimmick win condition, I dont want to win the exact same way everygame, I have Talrand and Rakdos for that.
>Not durdle, usually expensive card wise and boring for everyone else.

Any one have any ideas for good commanders, Its hard to judge which ones are good and which ones are very degenerate out the gate and I dont have alot of experience outside of Talrand and Rakdos...
>>
>>49251285
Dragonmage was another one. I also had Slate of Ancestory.
And most of my non creature spells were the Wheel cards and of course Past in Flames to reuse them.
As mana was hardly a problem for the deck as when you are mono colored you can run all of the doublers and Koth.
I also ran Daretti, Scrap Savant to filter my hand and re-buy mana doublers incase they got blown to shit.
You can forgo a lot of artifact destruction and sweeper spells because there are so many red creatures capable of those things that copying them with Kiki trumps wasting a slot on Vandal Blast or Blasphemous act. Ect.
>>
>>49251399

Well yeah, when somebody says "budget edh Storm deck" I think Sidisi ANT

Not your only option though you could probably make a cheap high tide deck too, although time spiral is the best card and that's a bit expensive
>>
>>49251286
Try Pucatrade if you are just going to use the money to buy the singles you need. You will get closer to market value.

>Rakdos Eldrazi decks that are fun, but are super tuned and brutal.
Um, really? What the hell is with your playgroup that they're getting rolled by a RB Eldrazi commander deck. No offense to you but if they can't compete with that I don't think you're the one who has to change what you do.
>>
>>49251285
Skullclamp is obvious too as Kik's tokens die and not exile themselves.

Not many are interested in buying $50-$100 singles, I'll throw it out there though.

Why do people go super-autismo about customizing their deck pages on Tappedout? They look like shit, are usually illegible, and load stupidly slow
>>
I want to make an artifact deck with stuff from Kaladesh focusing on Proliferate effects.

Who would do best? Sydri? Sharuum? Old Marchesa with Modular bullshit?
>>
>>49251578

$50-$100 is their tcg mid price no?

You could sell a $50 card to your friend for $33, make $10 more than what CFB will give you, while your bro gets a sweet deal that might make him interested in a card he wouldn't otherwise buy (because it's $50)
>>
>>49251650
Mishra

You get access to Guardian Beast and all the red spells in Kaladesh, play Possibility Storm with Inexorable Tide for lots of cast triggers.
>>
>>49251604

Do you just mean custom categories?

Does that make them load slower? I had no idea

Funny you say that, I disassembled my Mishra deck a long-ass time ago and still have most of the cards. Sounds like this'll be fun.
>>
>>49251527
Tapping tree of perdition, then playing rakdos into Newlamog and emrakul is a real thing. Its not a completely consistent or competitive deck, but it's pretty much exactly at the 75% power level when it's not built like that one rakdos meme picture.
>>
>>49251753
That's what I meant, yes. That power level should be alright and he shouldn't need to go weaker than that. Ita his playgroup playing Rebecca guay tribal and turtle themed deck.

Go Thromak devourer, its a fun token based deck that can easily be built into with multiple fun ways to win the game.

Either go big with Thromok and fling him, haste him into commander damage, play another huge devourerer, play Purphoros and token the shit out of people, aggro them, Insurrection all creatures, attack, and then feed them to a devourerer. It has alot of cool sneaky plays, but also has a number of clear drawbacks that keep it from becoming insanity tier.

I should Clarify, the second token was the one dealing the lethal damage, not the first. The first was just there to get Jitte counters.

That's a false dichotomy. You don't have to be playing phage.deck or mono-white arcane to be overwhelmed by optimal br Eldrazi. CEdh players could say similar about your decks for not being yisan.dek
>>
>>49251848
Thrax is kinda dull, but he gets the job done in a control deck. Zombies are also a consideration.

Sedris should be built to abuse unearth, so I don't get how you could even be debating between him and something else.

Isn't Tezzeret already in Kaladesh being a judge in the fair or whatever?

Is he still Bolas' minion or is he a Phyrexian now?
>>
>>49252692

Bolas is likely using him to search for Planar portal tech for his empire, which actually might have been his whole reason for being on New Phyrexia now that I think about it. The Phyrexians were the ones who had the tech in the first place, so send a minion there check up on it. Once he realizes they're a bunch of Neo Phyrexians, he sends Tezz to his next prospect, aka Kaladesh.

Recently made a Emrakul the promised end commander deck, feels bad not being able to use devoid cards and having no enchantments but It somehow still works, have basicly every non legendary colorless eldrazi from oath of gatewatch and battle for zendikar with a ton of crap tier artifacts to fill out the deck.

why use sliver hivelord when you can use cromat?
>>
>>49253762

not that guy, but

sliver hivelord's indestructible seems better to me as a target for auras than cromat's regenerate or bounce to library effect, since regenerate taps the creature and the bounce to library kills the auras

plus cromat is mana intensive when you want to be piling on auras
>>
>>49253749

the more you broaden your knowledge of decks, the less you are netdecking and the more you are learning, there's a difference

if you copy one good decklist you found on the internet, thats plagiarism, if you mix together your favorites and what you think are the best cards in 5 different decklists you found on the internet, thats not really a bad thing, thats research

gatherer is good too

magiccards.info is probably better
