This is my probably my favorite card in Magic, and it's certainly my favorite Legendary creature.

Right now, however, he's doing work as a member of the 99 in Brion Stoutarm, and I have so many red decks that building a mono-colored deck would require me to strip parts out of at least three of my other decks which include red. I'd probably also have to pull colorless support for him out of even more decks after that.

Even if I did do that, then I'd be stuck with the question of whether or not to run Ashnod's Altar, which is both ridiculously good with Feldon and a sticky flavor subject, because in all likelihood that altar is the same as the one used to torture Feldon's wife in the first place. Running it in a deck with Feldon at the head would just feel... icky, but not running one would make the deck needlessly worse, in terms of mechanics.

So, for the time being, I'm happy with running him as one in the 99.

Predator's Instinct is very good if it's a deck that goes tall.

you'd be repeatedly reanimating wurmcoil engine or myr battlesphere with him anyway, the lore doesn't really work either way

Honestly best flavour interaction would be reanimating Solemn Simulacrum with him

>>
>>50602980
>you'd be repeatedly reanimating wurmcoil engine or myr battlesphere with him anyway
There are red cards that do cool things when they ETB or die. Just because he makes an artifact copy doesn't mean you have to build him necessarily as an artifact deck, although you certainly can.
But yes, copying Simulacrum would definitely be in the game plan.

It seems I have reached an impasse. Right now, I'm torn between something Izzet and something Dimir, because I want to keep some of the blue goodstuff I'm running, but I'd be open to just about anything moderately fast.

That's a silly statement anon. Sure, the ramp is pretty artifact dependent, but that's the case for every colour that isn't green or black. Red has the most consistent wheel and looting effects of any colour. The artifacts in feldon are nice, but really, you're running him to use cheap looting effects to fill your yard with fatties.

Anyone else building decks and including some cards mainly because of the flavor? I'm currently building an esper-themed deck and have to keep myself from throwing every alara-sphinx there is in it just because.
>>
>>50603404
Yes. I sometimes forget that yes, lands are things your opponents can interact with - ie permanents. Probably a result of the fact I started playing long after land destruction was mostly gone from the game.

I still want to make a heavy enchantment-based deck that has a little chaos but not too much. Ideally my win con would be to wait until my fort is setup and everyone is drawing like five+ cards a turn, then drop forced fruition and sphinx tutelage. Can't figure out how to make something that doesn't take 20 turns to setup and pray no one fucks with me meanwhile, though.
>>
>>50603488
I mean if you are playing enchantments: ghostly prison, propaganda, and most importantly: sphere of safety. Maybe norns annex too? Just tax people for attacking you and use tutors to find the stuff you need.
>>
>>50603472
Alara sphinx are neat, if mostly over-costed. Magister Sphinx is a good way to piss off a table in a hurry. Enigma Sphinx is probably my favorite overall, just because with a little card draw and a sac outlet you basically get yourself cascade every turn.
>>50603540
Yeah, I have those, and a couple other things like Circle of Solace and Crackdown - the later of which I only played when I absolutely had to. Cowardice usually did a lot of work as well, until it was inevitably nixed, or my forting got people suspicious enough to kill me off before I did something dangerous.

No, because you're stuck with mono-blue morphers.

>>50604987
I was actually looking into him the other day. I've always liked Morph as a concept.

The problem is that most of the morph effects, at least in mono blue, aren't super great. YMMV, but it didn't seem that fun, let alone good, to me.

How about that, I just spent an hour battling TCG's cart system to buy an entire Commander deck. So long, $250.

Problem is, other than Ixidor, there isn't much you can do for a pseudo morph-tribal except pick a commander that plays into the colors of the best morphers and perhaps give some kind of creature interaction. Otherwise it's just kind of play morphers, hope they don't get nuked, then flip 'em for maximum niggery.
I kind of feel Monstrous/Ferocious would fit in with the flavor as well of 'sudden transformations,' but that's up to you.

I'm sure it could just be a subtheme. I don't think most people expect ltierally an entire world of vanillas. I could see an ability like Unleash but it lets you choose to be bigger and vanilla.

Er, well, what I mean is a keyword that supports artifacts matter which is Fabricate, their way to make artifacts matter but still tie them to colored spells they experimented with in Origins.
>>
>>50605344
Nope.
>>
>>50605328
Kaladesh was a mistake because of rotation, look at all the thopters that you can make in standard atm. And I do agree it would have to be a subtheme but a world with impactful vanilla creatures needs lots of token producers or very few impactful creatures with abilities and those two things scream "new player friendly"

If you really care about dragons-matter, that viashino who becomes a dragon once a turn whose name I for fee t and is monored or bladewing the risen. Scion is technically the best but if you optimise commanders it's hard not to just to focus on combos.

Scion can certainly fit that role but desu if you are just wanting to play huge dragons then White and Blue is pretty bad honestly, sorta dilutes your strategy with colors you don't really need.

I'd recommend Karrthus, Jund colors has the best dragons and dragons are a pretty often seen creature type in edh so his ability can actually be relevant. Plus, Karrthus is cool, just be really careful about your opponents stealing him.

I'm also looking to add Chrome Mox and Mox Diamond to my deck after payday, so I have the debate of running the originals of both but dooming Diamond to foillessness, or using the FTV Diamond and Eternal Chrome so the arts go together.

They were really great in standard, see some play in modern, but feel pretty bad in EDH (and are hot garbage in cEDH). They're too mana intensive, only deal 2 damage, have a high casting cost, and only net 2 tokens. While artifacts.dec isn't awful, not being in blue seriously gimps your tutoring options, and there are other commanders way better suited for that gameplan (Feldon, Slobad, heck even Godo is more impactful). Regardless of if you're playing casually or competitively, Mom and Dad are too slow and too unimpactful for a 40 life format.

New to this thread, is there a commonly accepted playlevel (75%, competitive, casual, etc.) or commonly accepted/liked wincons?

Incorrect

They go to the graveyard, and they trigger abilities when they hit the gy (except when something is stopping them like rest in peace) and THEN they cease to exist

If something was going to bring them back to life, that ability would trigger but do nothing when it resolves because the tokens are gone

But if the triggered ability doesn't care about whether they still exist, as in the case of fecundity, then they trigger

Depends on your playgroup, really. If your group plays a lot of "group hug" kinda decks then you can probably get some free bears out of it. And if you're building that mono green draw machine then you could potentially make some good use out of it.
>>
>>50607349
In mono it's REAAAAALLY difficult to just tutor that kind of thing, unless you can graveyard it and use an eternal witness or similar effect.

I use black/green so I can get all sorts of "when a critter dies" benefits. Hell, one blood artist on the field will win you the game. Also nice for the tutors.
>>
>>50607830
that depends entirely on how important those planeswalkers are to your deck.

So I played my first real group game with him today and holy shit, this deck is so good.

I was playing against Breya, Derevi, Kami of Crescent Moon, and K&T of Meletis. I controlled most of the board, wiping with disk and such. The Breya player made the mistake of playing Mcyosinthe Lattice. I proceeded to attack and kill the K&T player and the Derevi player with Hoard Smelter Dragon, Scuttling Doom Engine, and Hellkite Igniter.

I eventually got a Darksteel Forge and then killed all opponents permanents with Jokulhaups.

Was best fun I've had playing mono red ever.

There are so many weird mono blue legends to choose from, stealing is fun!
>>
>>50608997

Problem is that I don't really have a least favorite color combination, I like all the colors and combinations equally because they all have something to offer

I guess 5-color is my least favorite?

I really don't like any of the 5-color commanders except the ones that already have a theme to them, not because of the theme necessarily, but because I just don't like the other ones

Horde of notions, sliver stuff, Tazri, and scion are all okay, but don't really interest me enough to buy a 5-color manabase

Progenitus, child of alara, Karona, etc just don't interest me really

>>50609163
tazri allies / combo is pretty fun imo. Zada + rite of replication on a full board of allies.

>>50609124
See, that's the thing; i'd probably pump the rest of the deck full of "fuck you, i'm blue" and draw-go when i'm not stealing commanders / cool cards. Then, cyclonic rift and swing for lethal with everyone else's stuff. I don't think that's fun.

honestly, nothing about blue is fun, it's just good. Card advantage? Yeah. Telling people 'no, you can't win the game?' Yup. Infinitely bouncing everyone else's everything? Yeah.

I see why blue is good, I just don't think it's fun to pilot or play against.

You can always build the least blue deck in mono blue you can

My friend built muzzio voltron, where the whole deck is muzzio in his garage building a home made tank to run people down

Surprisingly, the deck has some synergy, like there are plenty of artificers that tap to add 2 to your pool only to be used on artifacts, or for activated abilities of artifacts. He uses them to help equip muzzio.

He gives muzzio vigilance so he can attack and use the ability each turn.

It's really funny to watch work, and fun to play against.

I need some help with my Saskia deck. I need card draw and to be able to stabilize after a board wipe. any takers? was thinking about running Erebos and/or greed for card draw. As for board wipes, I put in Phyrexian Reclamation but what's some more tech?

If you're in tokens, gotta have skullclamp for sure

I'd have to go with Boros

But the problem is, that the very reason why I hate this color is the reason why building a deck would suck and never be fun: Boros has only one shit theme, no support and frankly not a single worthwhile card in a multiplayer environment

Mono W is also bad, but there are themes and cards that work.
Red at least has Daretti and for casuals things like Krenko, Kiki etc.

Boros however is a mess of a color identity.Combat shenanigangs? This sucks, it just sucks, you feel like poking people with Q-tips when going against 120 life in total. Everything has to happen on your board, needs creatures and loses to a boardwipe immediatly. Playing Boros is suffering and no fun. Never.

I had a Kalemne player joining us once. God damn this was so sad to watch. He kept playing his overcosted big beaters only to get ignored by the whole table. No one cared. We just took some hits until the inevitable boardwipe happened, real creatures hit the board or someone won of a real win condition. Never saw that guy again after that.

Pic related. This is what a developmental failure looks like.
>>
>>50609357

I think Boros can be cool if you make a stax/prison/MLD deck

It won't be quite as good as other stax decks but it can show off some of the stuff white and red can do

Honestly I could see anya being cool. Shitload of burn to try to get one guy half life, and then have anya stay invulnerable. Give her shroud or hexproof with artifacts, or enchant her with protection from color of your choice.

Maybe a 75red:25white burn deck with her wouldn't be awful? Only use for white would be removal, mld, and protection Enchantments

I could see it being a fun build, anything to try to get burn to work

I'm not really using tokens, more of a extra combat deck. Only token stuff I run is Hero of Bladehold, the mutations, and Assemble the Legion.

You got black to tutor for it and let it rot in your hand until someone dares to touch your board

Would you guys play Grim Monolith in decks that don't have ways to untap it other than paying the 4 mana?
>>
>>50609357
I tend to agree

I could see a Balance/Stax/Chaos boros deck that ignored creatures, but no one at your table would have fun that way either

Every time I make a boros commander deck I end up tearing it apart because it's so linear and inneffective
>>
>>50609433
Depends on how important it is to ramp into your commander, and obviously what ramp options you have available. For example, endrek sahr decks want him on field as soon as possible, and he is (4)B. So I can see one being played in that kinda scenario considering black doesn't have the best ramp

Obviously it isn't as good if you can't find ways to untap it for free but
>>
>>50609420

I was thinking about living death but a lot people around me run reanimator, could not be in my favor. As for card draw, necropotence should go in and Erebos would stop life gain so I can keep beating them down.
>>
>>50609433

Only in very specific decks, because then it's basically a colorless ritual that synergizes with stuff like Yawgmoth's will and paradoxical outcome

It can also be worth it in a deck that really needs to cast a 6 drop on turn 3 like Narset maybe

I could see two possibilities here: Brago blink, which is more proactive than U/W generally and full of value plays/sideways guys or Grand Arbiter and just really embrace the draw go, no fun allowed strategy and try treat it as expanding my EDH horizons.

>>50609357
I tried to build Depala, and it was miserable because there's no good dwarves and the only vehicles available are standard junk. I'd rather just play Skysovereign as a commander.

>>50609298
I tried brewing up some blue artifacts once, just to see if I could stomach making a monoblue deck without every counter under the sun.

It was a disgusting stax/control arcum deck and i never bought it. Either Arcum hits the board with an artifact creature and I win the game, or he gets btfo by other peoples' counter magic and i don't get to play.
>>
>>50608997

Mono-blue: Tromokratis. Go aggro with big creatures that are hard to deal with. Focus less on control, but without completely ignoring it.

Mono-black: Phage the Untouchable. The idea of getting her out of the command zone sounds appealing.

5color: Slivers. Boring, but 5color is usually just goodstuff anyway.
>>
>>50609509
actually, I might try that muzzio thing, with Skysovereign in the 99. It might be the only fun way to play vehicles.dec.
>>
>>50607821
No, she's cheap and fun as fuck. Are you going to play for money?
>>
>>50609338
A list would be helpful but Skullclamp, Evolutionary Leap, Boros Charm, Rootborn Defenses.

>>50609433
Yes, but not always. I would put it in my Uril deck, which wants 1-2 big turns and then either wins or needs time to reload anyway, but not in my Marath deck, which has a mana sink in the command zone and taps out every turn.

>>50609407

Is there ANY use for this card

Can I abuse it in any way
>>
>>50609394
>>50609438

I agree with the both of your. If Boros should work someday it will have to work as this. I imagine it working less like traditional stax lists - with Winter Orb and friends making everything a slugfest - but more of a Boros Reckoner/Spitemare stax.

Punish everyone who tries to do anything. There is a subtheme in Boros and W with redirecting damage and there is R having access to spell redirects. Also R already has "take damage whenever..."

Make Boros a real tactician by letting the Boros player make the decisions for the table and punish everyone for doing anything at all.

Of course this would need a good deal of redundancy to make up for the lack of tutors and draw, but this way I could see it work.
>>
>>50609564

use Faith's reward or second sunrise I suppose

Also reyhan?
>>
>>50609458
Then maybe some good old Boros Charm?
I am not that familiar with Saskia and if she likes to keep RW up and a spell in hand - but I imagine with her double damage theme a card that gives Double Strike or protects your board could do some work.

If your meta is a bit slower and you got the mana for it Flip Avacyn could be a blowout against someone trying to boardwipe.
>>
>>50609572
Boros stax/prison does work, and C16 finally gave it a decent commander (Akiri). Drop a couple mana rocks, Armageddon then play Akiri. He gets bigger as you drop your stax/mana rocks and gradually just kills the table. Unfortunately this strategy is not fun to play with or against.
>>
>>50609635

Akiri is a girl, otherwise, yeah sounds good

Don't want to be all negative but at least in my meta this will never work.

By the time you naturally drew into your rocks and lock pieces and even your Armageddon the whole table has tutored for big rocks like Monoliths, Vaults, Crypts or even played Cryptghasts - when you blow up the lands they would thank you

And Akiri herself - if I am not bouncing her or play Bridge someone else will just kill her once she gets dangerous - removal is cheap and every good playgroup plays some
She lacks protection and evasion to be considered a real threat

In your playgroup everyone else has no fun playing against it - in my playgroup you would be the one not having fun with her

Wut

Anyway if your meta is so happy to have their lands blown up, why are they not running MLD themselves?

And if they ARE running MLD, then it sounds like it DOES work in your meta, since according to you everybody is running a mana rock/MLD stax deck

>>50604652
it's less about the deck you play and more about the motives behind the deck's creation. a norin deck can be anywhere from level 2 to level 5. i'd still place it at level 2 because a norin deck doesn't isn't annoying enough to be level 4 or 5

>>50609795
What do you do after Armageddon? Play Akiri or some rocks to swing for 4? Wow, huge fucking play. You bottlenecked yourself and the Cryp Ghast player drops BB lands every turn from now on until he feels like removing Akiri.
He will thank you because you crippled yourself more than him. That is why he would thank you.

The whole point of LD is to either slow someone down or to gain an advantage. Playing dorks or rocks when everyone else is ramping lands and then blowing up all lands is such advantage. But you are playing RW. How on earth do you plan to gain such advantage against BUG colors?

No one is running MLD in our meta because the ramp strategies in our meta are way too varied for it to do any work.

That's a very good point.
It's just at my LGS the EDH players there go pretty hard, and last time I made a "this deck seems really fun" kinda deck I got stomped. I was thinking of going with pic related though, but I suppose nothing is stopping me from having both cards in my deck and just switching the General depending on who I'm playing against.

Actually I think the issue here is the other players being massive try hards and building ridiculous combo decks and such. That's not what I want in EDH and I guess I should find some new dudes to play games with.

If you wanna know something REALLY fucky about Song of the Dryads, it turns the card into a Forest in layer 4, but cards are copies in layer 1. This means that if you Song of the Dryads someone's Jace the Mind Sculptor, you can play Vesuva and have it enter as a copy of the Forest Jace, except it's copied before becoming a Forest, so your Vesuva is a fully functional Jace the Mind Sculptor.

That one works because Deadeye Flicker doesn't care WHERE it went, just that it's in the same place when it goes to pull it back.

Compare to Oblivion Ring, whose LTB ability specifically looks for it in exile.
