EDH/Commander general

I'm building Edric. What's my wincon if I don't want to use infect?

>>51214224
I prefer a good offense, but the problem is that makes you look like a threat.
Which in a multiplayer game, is a great way to lose quickly.

>>51214248
Biomass mutation can steal the game if you've got a good amount of mana to dump into it.

Can't decide on my next deck.
It is for a semi-casual multiplayer meta and I have a budget for ~$100.

Choices are:

>Mogis Punishment
>Anya Groupslug
>Trostani Lifegain

>>51214224
That's a fun card in Gwafa Hazid

>tfw there will never be another block like Time Spiral
It hurts to live.

>>51215491
Meh, I tried it in my talrand deck for a bit of late game fun but only casting one spell each turn wasn't great and there were only so many threats to steal.

It was pretty tedious.

>>51215491
Epic spells are usually trash unless you can hive mind them.

They're never going to reprint Doubling Season, are they? I don't even play Atraxa, I want it for Ghave

>>51214224
>Good offense or strong defense?
Defense imo. Most of my games are 4 player pods, so it makes more sense to be slow and cautious early game rather than draw too much aggro. My meta isn't super cutthroat though?

What are must-haves for mono black, and this OG zirself?

>>51215911
take out all the lands, shuffle shuffle shuffle

then draw 11 cards face down, don't ever look at them for as long as you live.

Some people like stuff because they find it fun.

>Good offense or strong defense?
Good offense. Strong, consistent, early threats are the best way to break parity in group singleton. Not to mention combos are fun.
Speaking of fun who else here /combo/?
What's your favorite kind? Storm? Eggs? Doomsday? Infinite mana /draw/damage?
I've been playing mono green storm for some months now and it's just the funnest edh I've played. Every single game is unique, many different ways to victory, some requiring very tight conservation of mana.

>>51217400
Getting pissy about how another member of the pod chooses to enjoy EDH. Be it infect, superfriends, pillowfort, stax, ramp, control. Whatever. EDH is about individual expression and nothing is more annoying than that guy at the pod playing Mayel/Kaalia degenerate nonsense and complaining that "control has no place in EDH." As of there's a level of honor cheating big things into play has that other archetypes are bereft of.

>>51217575
hahaha, hes my only commander i have. run stupid shit like mindmoil, moonring mirror, and spiral embers/fateful showdown. you know, for when you want to take half your deck and throw it at someone.

What deck should I build anons? I want to absorb a hit, and then hit people so hard it makes them lose their will to live. I was thinking something Jeskai could be pretty cool, maybe Ruhan? I've never built Jeskai, is it fun?

Do you consider it a win for your deck if it wins while someone else is playing it? Conversely, do you feel like it's a win if you're playing a deck someone else made and it performs like it's supposed to?

Basically, what's your stance: how much of a win is the deck and how much is the player?

>>51217790
Yes

>>51217674
Want Jeskai? Narset. Otherwise play passive aggressively and play stax. That's the best way for others to lose the will to live

>>51217400

Stax.

>>51214387
You could build a fairly efficient Vela the Night-Clad deck within that budget.

>>51216318
For Gonti, just put Panharmonicon and Conjurers Closet. Other nice cards are Squelching Leeches/Nightmare (Good in any Monoblack) Also, it doesn't hurt to have an Exotic Orchard so you can use your opponents activated effects.

>>51216938
>Atraxa Infect
So what you are saying is that you are literally the worst kind of person.

>>51218994
Atraxa infect isn't that great in Commander. Specifically because if people see anything with Infect, then they immediately drop what they were doing to make sure that the infect player dies right now.

Currently making a Ravos/Kydele deck and have no idea what to make my win condition. I was thinking of using things that draw big and then maybe using one of the Hyrda's or Hangarback.

>>51218994
You really overestimate infect. If you somehow get a poison counter to each opponent to proliferate for 10 turns it's just bad. If you want to play good infect, it's either Skittles or Mimeoplasm and the latter will be a copy of Skittles anyway and it's an instant win anyway unless you're a retard.
Atraxa infect isn't even good because the proliferate is super slow.

62KB, 336x469px

>>51217674

You want to absorb hits and hit back AND you want Jeskai? Boy oh boy if only there was a commander in those colors and that can potentially use combat shenanigans

Giving something double strike in response to casting deflecting palm works, right? I'm not exactly sure

>>51219495
>10 turns
Dude, he overestimated, you underestimated. My Atraxa Infect can easily give everyone 10 in 3 turns or less.

>>51214387
can you clarify what you are looking for? fun/viability/uniqueness? to me, the boros one seems the most interesting but boros is painfully bad so maybe not

>>51214224
I have a Momir Vig deck, an Angry Omnath deck, and a Sydri deck.

Am I that guy based on my commanders?

>>51219614

I'm legitimately curious how you'd do this now.

Yes but it's okay, I'm that guy too
>Tasigur
>MW
>Meren

>>51219495
What's skittles?

I think people dislike infect because it's incredibly easy to pull off a one-turn kill out of the blue.

Like a Lost Leonin in a Kemba deck. Killing all three players in a single turn is pretty amusing.

>>51217316
>>51217381
UNFUCKINGCANNY

Literally the only girl I've ever known who plays Magic. Favorite colors: G/W, favorite creature types: Angels and Cats

So I picked up atraxa, and I kind of want to do a +1 counter theme, but I have also wanted to do a super friends deck. Would combining the two work or should I just pick one or the other, and which one would be more fun.

>>51219825
>Skittles

Skithiryx, the Blight Dragon

>>51219614
Once I have an infect counter on everyone, it's just a simple matter of
Atraxa, Contagion Engine and Contagion Clasp. The deck has a lot of draw and control, meaning that getting all 3 out at the same time and keeping them out isn't immensely difficult, especially since I also have Padeem giving the engines Hexproof.

>>51219849

Damn, that was meant for >>51219795

>>51219849
So you rely on the fact that no one has any removal and they just sit and take it letting you do your thing for 3 turns straight?

>>51219849

But how are you doing all that by turn 3?

>>51219894
>>51219902

Have in mind, in 3 turns =/= in turn 3

I see it hard, but plausible if he has enough protection for the engines, but not even near magical christmasland or something

>>51219819
That Guy Uprising when?

>>51219894
hence why I said:
>The deck has a lot of draw and CONTROL
Lots of counter-spells, because I was sick of people countering my shit.

>>51215368
Just made a Gitrog deck, any tips mate? Got life from the loam as well already.

>>51219920
>turn 3
>have atraxa, contagion engine and contagion glasp and everyone else is dead to poison
I won't believe that. I don't think it's possible to kill everyone else (assume 3 players) with poison that early.
Sure you can entomb and reanimate skittles, and best you can the do is with fast mana to play Unspeakable Symbol, but having a hasted Skittles on the field you need at least 5 black mana with the symbol.
It might be doable, but really a stretch.

>>51216686
Don't forget lifeline

Lifeline is fucking funny with Gonti

>>51220710
I hate that the card text is completely different from oracle text: the effect is in fact, symmetric even thpugh the text in the card seems to imply the opposite

Infect is the combination of Poison and Wither, can't you have a Poison deck that doesn't even have Infect?

>>51220962
You mean "poisonous" which was keyworded only with that one sliver unless I have missed something.
You can have the old poison cards and make a deck without infect, but infect is way more powerful that it's silly to not include it.

What are some nice commanders that isn't shit on a budget? (100$)

>Lifeline is fucking funny

ffty

it usually ends the game by the time it has gone a full turn. i'll often have something like sidisi on board when i cast it, and then i'll just tutor 3-4 cards and win. but it's such a meme card with certain other cards (gray merchant, sidisi) that i'm probably going to cut it from my deck soon

Getting mad because one of the people in my new online playgroup insists every deck everyone plays be free of tutors.

I have several toolbox and combo decks I love that I can't play, which is aggravating because I worked very hard on them. I am this mad.

>>51220448

again, the original anon said in 3 turns, not in turn 3. That's what I was talking about

>>51221472
your friend is right you know. i'd agree to "no tutors" rule in an instant if someone in my group suggested it, and i run like 14 tutors in my 3 decks

>>51219839
Pick one, trying to do both will water down the deck and make it perform poorly.

Superfriends is costly and gets boring quick

+1/+1 counters is done much better by ghave

Go infect atraxa

I know it's a long winded combo, but Myr Battlesphere + Nim's Deathmantle + Sac Outlet + Two Artifact sources that make 4 mana or more together is an infinite combo, right?

>>51221499
That's not impressive at all though.
My Oloro deck can win in a single turn if I've got the right cards in hand, so can my sen triplets deck, my Kami of the crescent moon deck, my lazav deck etc.

That doesn't make them good.

>>51221636
ashnods as your sac outlet cuts off the last part.

>>51215491
Late reply but I have a friend who runs this and the green epic spell in Kruphix as his wincon, ideally twincasting it as many times as possible. The deck is all mana acceleration, twincasts, and flash enablers. it actually works pretty well but there are obviously more Spike ways to win.

Ok guys I had the most fun in commander with my Kami of the Crescent Moon deck. It works as a group hug but if left unchecked it lets me usually play with 40+cards in hand and win. What i'm asking is: are there other mono colour commanders are fun to play with and against it? Which ones would you reccomand?

>>51221810
I run a mono-Black Gonti deck as a "For shits n giggles" deck. Lots of "Everyone sac" and "Return from grave to field to make sure Gonti is hitting the field as often as possible. Last game, I managed to piss off everyone by stealing a Platinum Angel, a Mogis and a Havoc Festival

>>51221979

>>51221942
I was going to switch from bant to this guy but I only have black sleeves, should I go full obnoxious?

>>51220311
Discard outlet + Dakmor Salvage lets you dredge & draw (it's important you draw) your entire deck then you can just do whatever reanimator shenanigans you want. I'm particular to necrotic ooze fling with Jarad, but other fun things include:

>four horsemen with an eldrazi Titan of your choice. Just keep looping your deck until you can reanimate it with haste via goyro's vengeance (or even just reanimate)/hard cast it (harder but doable, need rituals etc).

Also fast mana is your friend if you want to power Froggy out quickly.

In a truly cutthroat meta, Gitrog can reliable pop-off t2-t3 because your deck is essentially a Hermit Druid combo that takes advantage of one of its pieces being in the zone.

Hope that helps!

>Good offense or strong defense?
For me? Good offense. Probably more universally true? Strong Defense. Magic is a reactive game. Making the first move can often spell disaster.

I built this deck originally because I wanted to do something with King Macar, and it kinda snowballed from there. Thoughts, critiques, suggestions? I know mill is sub optimal, but I'm finding it kinda works well as a creature deck the longer the game goes.

“That is what they say I said when they found me in the blackness after three hours; found me crouching in the blackness over the plump, half-eaten body of Capt. Norrys, with my own cat leaping and tearing at my throat....When I speak of poor Norrys they accuse me of a hideous thing, but they must know that I did not do it. They must know it was the rats; the slithering, scurrying rats whose scampering will never let me sleep; the daemon rats that race behind the padding in this room and beckon me down to greater horrors than I have ever known; the rats they can never hear; the rats, the rats in the walls.”

Yup. I have a nice little Rhys, The Redeemed deck sitting around for when a stray girlfriend shows up to play. They love it and one time one of them even bought a couple cards to put in it. It's pretty neat. I like getting new people into the game, even just casually.

>>51225137
I have no idea why, but 8.5 tails. People don't pay attention and then suddenly no one can play Magic anymore and everyone's dying from commander damage 2 points at a time. Super frustrating.

Also, my Omnath, Locus of Mana tends to do that. But that's mostly because it can go from zero to 60 in one turn, not because it's low profile.

Dictate of Erebos, Phyrexian Reclamation, and Vampiric Rites

Such a good value engine. You get free edicts, card draw, and reanimation.

>>51225434

So, all you need is Dictate to the Twin Gods and "Tap = Win"

You'd blow yourself up too. Hence why things like Glacial Chasm and Fortune Thief are must-haves on your field if you're going to drop the hammer.

>>51225491
No, because he would kill you as well... Now, if you put that in a Gisella deck, then yes, it's "Tap, all opponents take their life-total as damage, You take 1/4 of your life as damage"

>>51225491
Gratuitous violence, curse of bloodletting furnace of rath etc.. is probably a better idea if you don't want to suicide yourself while your doing that.

Do you have a lot of people in your meta that go tall, or do you find it sits dead in your hand a lot?

I think about including it in my decks from time to time, but I never do because I can't think of the last time a guy was being hit for 9+ by a single creature and wasn't already being murdered.

>>51226396
It happens pretty often in my meta that someone just gets a big creature through some +1/+1 counter strategy, tribal strategy, big dumb beater strategy or what have you.

Also, I always have a few ways to make it work too. But yes, it does tend to sit dead in your hand for a good amount of turns, but in probably about 70% of games where I have it in my hand for a reasonable amount of time I can take someone out with it.

Also, my decks tend to draw a lot of cards, so even if it is dead sometimes, it doesn't matter that much.

>>51223523
I've done something like that before. we played with a guy with a foiled up teysa 1.0 combo deck that had every expensive tutor and was generally pretty spikey compared to the rest of our decks. so he combos and kills us on turn 5 or 6 two games in a row, and we ask him to change decks and he says "naaaah I need to play test this more, guys just kill X and X and X and counter my Y and i can't win lmao". then I had a nutty hand that went

>T1 land sol ring signet
>T2 land commander sphere dragon tempest
>T3 land, cast moltensteel dragon, it gets haste, swing at teysa, pay 32 to pump to 20 power, cast berserk
>next turn moltensteel eats artifact removal, die turn after because I blew my whole hand nuked myself doing that

that's the most magical christmasland hand I've ever had and it didn't even win me the game.

>>51225044
My mind went right to Geralf's Messenger, but that would kill them before Bitter Ordeal. Still a great card to put in the deck though, so I'm for sure going to do it!

>>51228715
I'm honestly not sure. I also can't remember if it still works without at least one indestructible creature on-board. I think it's a draw without lifelink, though.

>>51227942
Use Vedalken Orrery, so you can stack all the Messenger triggers in a way you can exile each other players decks before Messenger's triggers resolve and then end the turn with sundial of the infinite.

>>51228139
An exchange effect doesn't move any things unless both of them are still there to trade.

>>51228715
2 indestructible creatures make it go "infinite" but use the stack to see which player dies last. If you die, the arcbond triggers stop resolving.

This is how I feel, senpai.

Anyone here working on or achieved Club 32 (one deck for each color combination, including mono-color and colorless)? If so...

1. Which decks do you have of the 32?
2. How long have you been working on it/did it take you?
3. Which color combinations were the hardest for you to build?
4. Which color combinations surprised you by being more fun than you expected? Less fun than expected?
5. Which color combination have been the hardest to choose a commander for?


1. Isamaru, Hound of Konda (W), Jalira, Master Polymorphist (U), Erebos, God of the Dead (B), Heartless Hidetsugu (R), Yisan, Wanderer Bard (G), Gwafa Hazid, Profiteer (WU), Dralnu, Lich Lord (UB), Borborygmos Enraged (RG), Krond the Dawn Clad (GW), Karlov of the Ghost Council (WB), Mazirek, Kraul Death Priest (BG), Brion Stoutarm (RW), Kruphix, God of Horizons (GU), Sedris the Traitor King (UBR), Shattergang Bros (BRG), Bruse Tarl + Tana the Bloodsower (RGW), Tariel, Reckoner of Souls (WBR), Yasova Dragonclaw (URG), Shu Yun, the Silent Tempest (RWU), Sidisi, Brood Tyrant (GUB), Breya, Etherium Shaper (WUBR), Scion of the Ur-Dragon (WUBRG).
2. Been playing EDH/Commander since 2009 or ‘10, but working on Club 32 for about 2 years.
3. Hardest for me to build were Kruphix, Dralnu, Tariel, and Gwafa. Tariel is just difficult to work, and for the others I’m not much of a blue player; I’m black mage, through and through.
4. That being said about me and blue, my mono-blue Jalira deck is way more fun than I expected, but it definitely isn’t a normal mono-blue deck, either. And my Mazirek deck is not as entertaining as I had hoped.
5. Having a hard time choosing a commander for rakdos, esper and bant colors. Any suggestions of commanders that might be fun? I generally don’t play control, if that helps. Tsabo Tavoc seems like an interesting RB choice.

>>51225491
>>51229067

Rakdos, lord of riots is a fun commander. For esper, Merieke is fun, but I saw a sick halfdane voltron deck a while ago.

But you thought Tariel was tough to build? I made a tariel deck and just turbed it into reanimator wrath tribal with loads of boros combat tricks to make my shit indestructible, and a side dish of tribal angels.

>>51228173
No. You vastly underestimate the power of fast, brown-based mana. The creature type is the easiest to deal with in game. The reason why Serra's Sanctum is allowed is because you can't effectively ramp with enchantments to the degree that you can with artifacts/creatures.

>>51230240
That's what I've tried to do with Tariel, but the curve seems too high every time I play it. That, and half of her reanimation is based on what everyone else plays.

My playgroup is very new to EDH, and they all like big plays/huge creatures, so my scratch-built Alesha, Who Smiles At Death deck had an absolutely insane first showing yesterday.

Hey everyone, so My prerelease was mediocre other than picking up a Hope of Ghirapur...I kinda wanna build a voltron deck with him.

Anyway, I'm actually here to ask which deck would be better to throw the Eldrazi I have into. Rashmi or Jhoria?

Rashmi would be elf ramp, Jhoria is usual time shenanigans.

I pulled a foil one of him, I've been wanting to make it a commander ever since. I rarely play black so I'm not too familiar with the better cards that it uses. I'm considering getting the monoblack prebuilt commander set as a base for the deck, should I or not?. Also what are some good combos with him? Thanks in advance

Also, does anyone know how that would ever work? I've never hear of 2HG commander before.

>>51231227
That's a shitty combo.

>>51231260
>How does 2hg EDH work?
poorly...it usually results in a fucking landslide victory for one side.
Long story short the Anon showed up with his buddy at a shop and was challenged to play 2HG EDH against a swaglord running a narset deck and they literally went 0-5.

>>51231278
how? "Deal damage equal to the number of cards in your hand, discard any number of cards from your hand, draw that many cards."

>>51230182
Hidetsugu is my jam. Tied with my Scion deck for the oldest deck I own (circa 2009 - to present). But those pingers are a tad unnecessary. In reality, Hidetsugu goes HARD. It is probably the only viable way to run a red-deck-wins deck in this format. It's so mcuh fun. Of all my decks, it has the most kills, and a big chunk of that list is myself.
1. Play Hidetsugu
2. Play a doubler
3. Tap Hidetsugu
4. Allahu akbar

>>51230182
Which is why you run burn spells to get everyone to even life totals, and put yourself at an odd total, before dropping the fucking nuke and blowing out the table.

Never underestimate the power of a Bolt or a Gut Shot.

Dropping this on a 9+ power creature really fucks with people's brain.

So after having some fun with the Yidris precon for a while, I've decided to upgrade it. Is this worth it or should I just take it apart and use the cards in other decks?

It's got some good cards in it. If you just want to build from it as a base, it's got what you're looking for. It's got a sacrifice subtheme, so you can get a lot of value out of the deck just with those value engines.
Make sure, whatever you do, that you get Cabal Coffers. It makes every monoblack commander infinitely better.

Fuck you

>>51232631
>Or should I take it apart and use it for other decks
I'm not even that anon. I think he should just upgrade ydris, but you could see how the answer makes sense.

>>51232740

anon here, what do you mean by that?

Uhhh, wait, I actually do have that one
http://tapped out .net/mtg-decks/sigarda-multirole-1/
not sure how 4chan handles links so remove the spaces between tapped[]out[].net

might be some minor variance but that's more or less the deck as it was pre-Kaladesh iirc, not too much changed and it's really to taste given how budget my shit is

>>51231093

Here's my Kalitas list. I won't pretend it's the best in the world, but it puts in some solid work and is probably my most consistent deck. I packed in as many stax effects and sac outlets as I could with some tutors to pull out combo pieces for the big wins.

>>51232766
The answer of "Use Kydele instead and go nuts". There's certainly pieces of Yidris that can slot into Kydele, especially if you just partner her with Vial Smasher and use her for wheeling and fat mana making,

>>51232780
>What were they thinking.
Not about how disgusting that card would be. Wizards has never quite cracked the "balanced artifacts" formula.

>>51232891
I was speaking more so in terms of cost-efficiency. I was wondering which one would be more cost-efficent: just making an upgraded Yidris deck or instead just making a new deck. Your answer did not answer my question.

>>51232981
They're both going to cost money. Neither are super expensive, though. The most expensive in the decks will probably be Wheel of Fortune and Sylvan Library. If you like Yidris, build 'em. Both are 'worth it' in the sense that they do their things well, and investing money into them gets you a fun deck in return.

>Nuke the fucking table with Hidetsugu
>bathe in the hate-filled tears of shitters who think that no board presence makes me a non-threat

Fortune Thief was my only creature, as a Morph, for most of the game.

I am playing this deck until I die.

>>51231101
I'm going to copy your power/fun style, I'll make my own later

>>51233106
I don't want to build Kydele though. I was thinking of just building a completely new "regular" commander deck.

Alright, my slobad shit is on route.

Still in early phases, no mycosnyth, blightsteel, or even wurmcoil.

Shitload of mld, boardwipes, mana rocks, artifact creature token creators, etc. I feel like I'm going to win through boardwiping enough and swinging with thopters post-apocalypse,or with colossus of arkos, or darksteel forge or something.

My question is, should I include anything like manabarbs, ghirapur aether grid, and other enchantments that are similar?

>>51233241
Then that's ultimately just your decision. If you have fun with him, Yidris is very upgradable. If you are feeling burned out, there's a ton of budget commanders out there.

>>51231049
Rakdos.

I wanna build something that's as close to lantern control as possible in edh. Who should I use as my commander?

>>51232336
So for Arjun, how many mana rocks do you run? I'd imagine that you need quite a few for the guy. I'm asking because I'm thinking about building the guy myself.

>>51233710
Haven't put list online yet because the crap is still on route and honestly I have no idea how many boardwipes I should run, how much mld, how many rocks, how many ""wincons""

I'm just excited to build something staxxy, and an excuse to do dumb shit like make nevvys disk indestructible. I'll build a list sometime tomorrow if you'll still be around on edh general then :) no pressure!

>>51233751
Smart, I have clock of omens, aether grid as well, and I'm running winter orb and static orb. As well as smokestack.

I've got a shitload of artifact creature creators,what do you think thopter assembly, whirlermaker, metrognome, golem foundry, diamond kaleidoscope, conservation chamber, golem foundry, pentavus, etc?

>>51233946
>if you'll still be around on edh general then :)
These threads are my lifeblood, anon; they are the best

>>51233946
Oh god I said golem foundry twice

>>51234025
Alright, I'll probably get to it tomorrow. Don't judge too much!

Quick question.
Iron Maiden?
Viseling?

I have a foil rackling but I doubt it's even close to worth a slot

>>51233946
I don't really play a lot of token creators, when I wanna sac to the Stax I usually just play cheap fodder artifacts like what /i would sac to Slobad like Mycosynth/Ichor Wellspring, Mana Rocks and cheap utility like Voltaic Key or I'll have Crucible.

>>51234156
Ooh gotcha. I just figured I'd run out of shit to cast,and may as well have something to pump all that extra mana into while I wait.

I'm not running mycosynth or crucible due to budget, do you think I should still run artifact token generators?

>>51234175
When I say Mycosynth/Ichor I meant Mycosynth Wellspring and Ichor Wellspring. If you're gonna use token generators you should use ones that make creature tokens so you can Skullclamp them, like Myr Turbine in my opinion. I think the best token "generators" are creatures that bring tokens with them like Meatball.
