EDH/Commander general

Hello, I apologize for my ignorance.

I want to do two things.

1. Catalog my cards by scanning them under a smartphone app to add them to a database.

2. Order proxies of some cards I already own, I would be playing with some of them unsleeved so they would need to be the right dimensions and feel mostly like a magic card. I have ~50 I would like to make

I would appreciate it very much if anyone could point me to any community trusted resources for these things.

Thank you.

>>51968055
>Playing with some of them unsleeved
Y tho

>>51968097
Because I am trying to make 32 decks for all the combos and I can't afford cards, proxies, and sleeves for all of them. I am sleeving the most valuable decks with real cards please don't hate me.

>>51968133
If you can't afford to SLEEVE 32 decks, you shouldn't own 32 decks.

>>51968146
I also dislike playing with sleeves, I prefer the cardboard. Each time this question is asked the discussion is always about the sleeves I don't like sleeves I don't want to sleeve all of my decks all of the time please stop the sleeves.

>>51967990

I play Angry Omnath as my "real" commander in my Mina and Denn Deck. Let me tell you having Parallel Lives out while Blade of Selves is Equiped to Omnath again 5 opponents? There is no better feeling.

>>51968162
Just be aware that it's super fucking weird.

If your argument was "I don't like sleeves", whatever, you do you. Your argument was "I cannot afford to sleeve 32 decks", and if you can't afford to sleeve 32 decks, how the fuck are you able to BUY them? Maybe make a few decks at a time instead of trying to build 32 at once, especially if they're gonna be 50% proxies.

>>51967990
>>Thread Topic:Who is your favorite token-centric commander?
I want to say its rith because those dragons are my favorite
I want to say marath because its my t1.5/t2 multi player deck
but really its Sek'Kuar, Deathkeeper MLD who is just a titania deck with two more colors
titania is tight as fuck.

>Just be aware that it's super fucking weird.

THE SLEEVES WHY DO THEY DO THIS TO PEOPLE

Arguements. Weirdness. Buying and affording.

I don't care it's all just words. Let's render it. I don't want to spend the money on sleeves when I could use them on cards because I don't think that the protective value sleeves offer are worth the purchasing price, especially considering I like the tactile feel and play of sleeveless cards. Also considering because my question co-asks about proxies with tactile feel which is the point.

Why. Why the sleeves. It's always the sleeves.

>>51968229
Exactly.

>>51968229
All but one, and that's the point. In the stated situation, he'd get 8 token copies of Omnath, all of which would immediately die. Each one would trigger itself, and the other 7, so that's 64 triggers doing 3 damage each.

>>51968229

It does, yes. But that triggers Locus of Rage's second ability, which when Omnath or an Elemental you control dies Omnath deals 3 damage to Target Creature or Player. Each Omnath copy sees itself and all the other Omnath tokens die, and the real Omnath, assuming you keep him, see them all die as well. Do the math.

>>51968245
I'll break it down for you.

1) It's really odd to see someone playing without sleeves, because your cards will get de-fucking-stroyed without them. I still have cards from High School, when we didn't buy sleeves because there was nowhere TO buy them, and compared to the cards I've owned since using sleeves they are beaten to shit. If you don't care about your cards being damaged, that's fine, but they're gonna get fucked up, and marked.

2) It's going to be very hard for you to make the proxy thing work beyond sharpie-on-basic, because unless you shell out for really good "this is intended to be a counterfeit" level proxies, they are going to be much glossier and feel very different out of the sleeve

3) If money is an issue, maybe build 8 decks and work towards the other 24, instead of going from 0 decks to 32 overnight.

>>51968272
Oh, and 8 triggers from the original, so 72 total.

>>51968310
>because unless you shell out for really good "this is intended to be a counterfeit" level proxies

Where and how much?

>>51968340
Not gonna tell you. If you insist on playing with fake cards, you can do your own fucking research.

>>51968340

We call the sellers chinamen for something, anon

>>51968354
That is precisely what I am doing, at this very moment.

I wanted to ask the community and speak to people, as is the best way to live life and get the barest pointers of where to do further research.

But, as has happened before, someone was actively hostile because of the mention that I play, some portion of, my cards without sleeves.

I understand the conception of entropy and the physical manipulation of matter.

Will you, or someone, please help me?

>>51968395
No, you are not doing research, you're going "SPOONFEED ME"

>>51968264
>>51968272
>>51968307
Oh fug that's pretty sweet

>>51968420
I wanted to let you know that you accurately reflect the popular conception of the Magic community.

>>51968395

look up mgtlion's old videos on youtube

>>51968457
That if people want to pretend they own cards they should at least have to do the fucking legwork themselves?

>>51968457

I both love Prossh and Ghave but cannot play them as they are instantly hated out of the game no matter how durdly or janky i build the deck

>>51968628

I have it in Lazav mill/reanimator. It's disgusting

>>51968272

Your math is slightly off, because Myriad in this case would only make 3 tokens which would then be doubled by Parallel Lives for six Tokens for a total of 41 triggers of 3 damage each which makes 123 damage total.

Which is still pretty fucking sweet.

>>51968665
>3 tokens
>5 opponents
Uhhhh?

>>51968628

Because I don't play Black.

>>51968457
ok
what is your point exactly?

>>51968684

Okay, I derped that. I thought he meant a 5 player pod. I'm also going to recheck my math anyways.

>>51968722
Eh, it's in that realm of "You're all dead, and I'm not bothering to do the math unless i fucking have to"

>>51968684
>>51968722

Double checking my math it's 216 damage total after 72 triggers. For 4 opponents in a 5 man pod which is what I originally read it as it is 42 triggers for 126 damage.

Any thing else I messed up?

>>51968787
It's more than 42 triggers. Each Omnath's death triggers itself, the original, and the other 7 copies, so you have 8 sets of 9 triggers.

>>51968619
He's so big he takes all of his friends on a piggy back ride! He becomes heavier for each friend he has with him.

Probably the time I sat down to play EDH with two people who immediately called me a cheater when I played a Tundra, because that card isn't in Standard.

Turns out the two of them each owned 3 EDH decks that were 100% made up of Standard-legal cards

Shit like this drives me up the wall like little else, this is like 50% of games on xmage. I don't mind losing but not when you literally strip me of the opportunity to do something by OOG bullshit. Should I just cave in and become yet another "that guy" playing solely broken spikey bullshit?

I'm not sure I understand your complaint.

He had a big board position, but because the other two called it quits early, he was able to just kill you?

What's wrong with xmage? It's a lot better for testing than goldfishing

>>51969293
It takes a blood sacrifice to set up, and since they program cards in one at a fucking time you can't always build your decks there.

>>51969264
Yes. I kept a low profile throughout the game so he spends his resources on other people, which worked well right up to the point where the two players both use their "Lose the game: target player loses the game" ability on me simultaneously.
Another thing that annoys me is that my strongest deck by far which is good at preventing this crap is also the most boring one I have. Green turbo ramp that always plays the same.
>>51969279
I don't have an IRL playgroup and have little prospect of having one at the moment.

>>51969256

Ah, yeah, that's frustrating, but there's basically nothing you can do about it on XMage. In paper, you could just say "Guys, wait- don't scoop yet".

>>51969342
I mean, there's an excuse, and that excuse is "he's a piece of shit". There's cards that let you draw more than 1 card per turn, too, but that's not gonna stop people from thinking they can sneak extra draws.

>>51969293
You know what else is good for testing? Playing with friends.

>>51969329
I'm sorry that you've suffered such a fate.

I may have been blackout drunk when I set it up because I do not remember doing it. And it's usually really weird obscure cards that aren't in

>>51969342
It was around Dragons, so i think it was a cruddy Daghatar deck and a mono-white Anafenza or something? I don't really remember much since the game ended by turn 3.

There are a fair amount of mainly old cards missing on xmage. What especially bums me is that there aren't any Magical Hack type effects programmed into the game yet. But at least they're getting there piece by piece.

you better be running mindcrank and Duskmantle for the wombo combo value

>>51968395
Because it's against the norm.
People are going to be confused when you go against the norm. In something like Magic where you're paying $20+ for a piece of cardboard, not protecting them is strange. I get owning the card and using a deck of proxies but good proxies are expensive.

Also, he got mad at you for saying you can't afford to sleeve your decks, which is true. A pack of "quality" sleeves like Dragonshields are $10 for a pack of ~105. It would be an extra $10 per deck, or $320 plus tax. A whole EDH deck can easily cost that much. If you're so worried about money, I'd either not build 32 decks, or buy sleeves to protect them. If you prefere the feel of unsleeved cards go you, but don't expect to be able to sell those cards later for near their full value.

>>51970280

>Who is your favorite token-centric commander?
You know, as much as I like tokens in real magic, I don't think I've ever built a token deck in commander. I guess my Karlov was kind of close at one point when it had a token subtheme to help trigger soul sisters but I was being spread kind of a thin and I cut them since they were probably the weakest piece of the deck.

>>51968245
>can't afford

It's like $5 for a pack of 100 basic bitch ultra-pros

>>51971149
Well, more like 8 for two packs of 50, but still.

>>51971223
$256 without shipping. It's preposterous to have 32 EDH decks in the first place. I struggle to have just 8, and I think that's a lot.

How do I build for Kraum and Ludevic? Do I just put in a bunch of looting effects and things such as rise from the tides and copy cards?

>>51971302
I'm okay with the "eventually build one in every color combo" plan- I'm on it myself. The difference is I'm not trying to build 32 decks at once and complaining about price.

>>51971314
Fuckloads of land hate and blue zombies. The commanders are just jank as fuck but thats the point of the formst.

>>51971314
Honestly is there much to build around with the two? Ludevic wants to be built kind of like Edric so I'd maybe try some coastal piracy type effects to try and make up the difference in card draw with time walks and flying men and with red you also get extra combat steps. He also works well with face burn since your burn spell will replace itself once a turn. Kraum is mostly just a beater that guarantees you'll have SOMETHING to trigger ludevic with I guess as far as their synergy with each other, but he asks absolutely nothing of you to build around him. I guess he works well with counterspells which can in a roundabout way force the opponent to cast multiple spells?

I think I need to take a break from my playgroup /tg/. The one who is consistantly the best player at the table still whines and is passive aggresive whenever you target his cards or shut him down in the slightest way.

Any other anons play with this guy?

this, every black deck in my group ran it when it first came out, same with Luminarch Ascension.

If you want to be attacked, targeted, and have all your shit removed by every other player these are the best 1 and 2 mana options.

Yup, short answer is talk to him and tell him he's acting like a fun ruining bitch, then buy him a beer.

Long answer is, get another playgroup, because this guy will never change his schtick. Until someone draws more hate or is a better player, targeting him first is always the right play because otherwise he wins. Now that being said, run a very low hate janky pile of spare parts and consistently beat him. After a while he'll ask why you always win with worse cards, and explain the principle of politics. I bet he's a gruul/RUG player or a big blue.

i used to play edh, before the first precons came out. before wotc took the format and skullfucked it rawdog.

today, i miss playing with the group in its hayday. a few guys have moved sure but the core is still around. we play board games now. some of us had 5-10 decks, one guy was going for all color combinations etc. something ended up 25 decks

today i can't fathom playing the format. cards have gotten tremendously expensive. even "budget" decks run over $100 for a single deck -- board games provide so much more value for that $100, let alone the $40-70 they cost.

i thought about building 4 commander decks to play against each other, and having that as "a board game" sort of how we treat the duel decks anthology. am i nuts, or am i chasing the spirit of a game that's just gone now?

>>51973603
I will never stop hating the "IT'S POPULAR NOW SO IT SUCKS" bullshit.

>>51973603
>or am I chasing the spirit of a game that's just gone now?
Pretty much this. But not because Commander is dead, it's because you've painted 'the glory days' with so much nostalgia and so much rose-colored paint that absolutely nothing could ever live up to it. Including if you could somehow go back in time to 2009 before the precons. It still wouldn't live up to the memory you've created that never actually existed.

>>51973603
reactions like this are why i stopped trying to find a new playgroup. no one is interested in build restrictions, casual play. it's all RAWR FACE STOMPY NEW STUFF! every set that comes out. do you really need the 10th counterspell in that RUG deck, bro?

>>51973668
i think magic in general has just moved on, too. these last couple standards have been wet farts for me.

>>51973700
No, you've just romanticized the past.

>>51973646
>>51973668
^these.

When the Precons came out, they may Commander accessible to my group of friends that was just getting into the game. We could finally get something to start from that wasn't utter ass or dominated by the couple of guys that had dedicated 4 decks to roughly the same playstyle that they could mash together for a single commander.

The Precons is what let my group make the move to commander from our normal shitty kitchen table 60s, with shit that should be banned from casual fun play.

>>51973732
I mean, I occasionally get nostalgic for those days, but it's a GENERAL nostalgia, eating pizza with my friends while we played Commander at 2 AM with ATHF or King of the Hill playing in the background on a Saturday night in high school.

And yeah, part of me misses when we played more casually and half the playgroup wasn't building pubstomp shit, but that's nothing to do with Wizards, it's just because that's the general arms-race thing that happens with ANY format as a group gets deeper into it. And I can counter that by just hanging out with my friends who also prefer more casual games... to eat pizza and play one of our eight (instead of our 'only one') Commander decks at 2 AM on a Saturday with Netflix playing in the background.

Is it possible to build a ((decent)) EDH without spending hundreds of dollars? I don't mean something tournament worthy, just something that isnt't 60 assorted commons and uncommons from standard and some basic lands.

>>51973982
If you keep it to two colors, your landbase can be built very cheaply, and that's where most of the money is.

>>51973982
Yes. you can make a respectable deck in pretty much any strategy for a hundred or less. Hell you can buy a precon and add like 20 bucks worth of singles if you're super lazy

>>51973982
Mono green, like in every format can be build for like 20$ man.

>>51973603
oh yeah I miss when Kokusho was banned for no reason but Rofellos, Braids, Sundering Titan, and Emrakul were still legal. Suck a dick you hipster faggot

>i thought about building 4 commander decks to play against each other, and having that as "a board game"
do you only play a deck once or something? In my playgroup we each have like 4-5 decks and rarely build new ones.

>am i nuts, or am i chasing the spirit of a game that's just gone now?
this attitude is literally the exact opposite of the spirit of the game. Play Chess if the thought of a meta changing offends you

There are plenty of budget options, hell, it's a singleton format. Just throw together a pile of jank and upgrade it over time. It's not like your BUG deck is unplayable if you're missing fetches.

You should also realize this format was created by a bunch of veteran players who had built up a collection of jank that sees no play in every other format, so when most people come here complaining about "budget" it's kind of on deaf ears because a lot of people who got into commander didn't spend a dime to make most of their decks.

>>51974697
So, few things.

1) that costs three times as much. 3 is a lot more than 1, especially for a Stax-y effect.

2) That only happens if you use the lands during someone else's turn

3) It's a "destroy" effect, so you can regenerate your land, or make it indestructible

4) It only applies to lands, rather than every permanent

5) It only applies to tapping for mana, rather than activating ANY ability

Based on what I've seen, a lot of people overcrowd their Godo decks with Equipment, when really you could run quality over quantity and devote slots to things like pumps/evasion, control-type spells, and extra combat. Helps keep mana investments down too, sucks when you tap out for a cast/Equip, only to have nothing left to tap for that Boom//Bust to secure the win.

What do people think about a mardu based reanimator deck with Tariel? I recently got a Sorin, grim nemesis, Nahiri, the harbinger, and Feldon and was trying to think of a good deck for them.

understated cards that will literally save your life

>>51975420
You probably don't want to be wheeling away everyone's hands, you want precision with her ability. That means less creatures in graves not more. Pack sacrifice outlets to keep getting them back (plus sac outlets are good in reanimator anyway) and graveyard hate to make it more precise. (Stone cloaker, withered wretch). All these cards are good on their own too, so you don't feel like you fell for a trap building around a 7 mana commander that could just be hit by the next wrath before you use her.

The usall stuff of course, Resonator, master of cruelties, raving dead, necrotic sliver, blinding angel, goblin grenadiers, and avalanche riders. Also maybe this if your feeling crazy

>>51976075
You're not really good with rules. You can't cast the thing multiple times, since Silas' effect only effects the thing on first cast, because when it leaves gy it's entirely new object, even if it was just countered and put into gy from stack.
If Silas' ability said "when Silas deals damage name an artifact card. You may cast this turn spells from your graveyard with the chosen name", it would be entirely different.

Good luck you magnificent bastard

So /edhg/

What do you do when your playgroup decides to be ultra cunts and bring almost nothing but blue fuckery cards to the table?

>>51976244
Read a primer and choose to build it somewhere between stax - reanimator - aggro

No matter what you run throwing in looting effects is great because of the graveyard interactions. If you have appropriate creatures in hand cathartic reunion basically reads 'draw 3 cards'

I've built mine as a combo oriented list with some less brutal stax-y discard and land destruction like oppression, desolation, jokulhaups, painful quandary. Hushwing gryff, thalias, entropic eidolon, and felidar guardian are all interesting cards that fit the Alesha bill while slowing the game down.

Of course I have the aggro cards ready to go for when I'm feeling it. Sunforger, tajic, iroas, token generators, cathar's crusade and skullclamp is basically half that deck.

f you think bouncing a creature once per turn is effective, or a good use of your once per turn cast from graveyard trigger, you're probably playing in the lowest of power metas.

Not that there's anything wrong with that. Well, except for the thinking this is good bit. Even in a low power meta there's probably something more strategically valuable you could do once per turn. See: >>51978710.

>>51978747
Find a better playgroup and lgs. If they can't deal with cmc 10+ creatures they're awful players.

>>51978727
Vexing shusher is a thing anon. If you don't like that you can try black white with kambul. Red has the best blue hate though, red elemental blast and pyroblast being the best of their kind (but you can still boil and shit). If your meta is nothing but blue then fucking go ape with hate cards. Carpet of blossoms should get your cock hard enough to rape blueboipussy, just make sure they can't enjoy it by using stuff like boseju and cavern of souls to go hard. Homeward path will also help against most of their "removal".

You should only really have to worry about bounce spells.

>Thalia: One mana makes a huge difference. Or with her new version, tapping their lands makes a huge difference too.
>Yeva: you can now cast your stuff during their endsteps, which can give you an edge.
>Zurgo/Isamaru: kill them before they can counter everything
>Llawan Cephalid Empress: Probably not the best, but also a hilarious card. I wish they'd unban painter's servant already.
>Maelstrom Wanderer: Oh, you countered my Maelstrom Wanderer, allowing me to easily recast it and trigger cascade again?
>Prossh: countering prossh doesn't really hurt it's strategy.
>reki, the history of kamigawa: This is from personal experience: this deck can fight through counters easily, usually by timing its plays correctly. Landing a Dosan the Falling Leaf for instance, or any number of other green hate cards, like City of Solitude or Hall of Gemstone is relatively easy with your ramp, and can set you up for huge storm turns later
>Dosan the falling leaf: obvious.
>Sen Triplets: You can shut down one player a turn from casting anything. This is really useful for landing a combo. You can also use that player's counterspells to counter your opponent's counterspells.
>Ruric Thar: obvious.
>Bruna, the Fading Light: her ability is a cast trigger, and countering it only means you can resurrect another powerful angel. Her alternate form also completely shuts down most counterspells and targeted removal.
>Dragonlord Dromoka: Obvious
>gaddock Teeg: obvious. Not good against a lot of counterspells, but great against their payoff cards.
>Akroma, Angel of Fury:The most gorgeous art you've ever seen, and can completely shut down blue decks.

Rate my new Obzedat deck!

The weird cards like Damping Matrix are there because there's a lot of degenerate combo in my meta.

>>51978792
the thing about blue hate cards is that they're almost outclassed by blue cards. for example, pyroblast gets countered by a counterspell, and you'll end up losing that exchange because you probably don't have blue's card advantage tech.

i'm honestly not sure what the best counter to blue degeneracy is. since edh is so high average cmc in general, counterspells are just inherently powerful. i think the best you can do is drop a ton of spells that are just not good enough to be countered. my maelstrom deck does decently against counterspell.decs because i can just a billion smaller ramp/draw/removal spells when they're spending their turns untapped, and then eventually i will have twice as much mana as them and can afford to just drop so many threats that they simply can't cast enough counterspells to deal with them all. i've had games where i've had all my shit removed for 9 turns in a row, and then finally i get a good maelstrom double cascade off while they're tapped and one-shot them.

i don't play in a 100% meta though, my maelstrom is like a 85% power level deck.

Tell him to stop being a leftist and understand the law of supply and demand.

If you play a super effective combo deck, everyone will try to kill you because you always win. So then you have to include hate cards in your deck to counter their strategies. You can play combo all you want, but you have to bear in mind that everyone will hate you and try to kill you first, it's natural.

So a couple decklists here that I'd like some help with.

First up is my first Pauper Commander list, I really wanted to play Gruul in PDH but Bloodbraid just seems dumb, so here's Ventmaw. Honestly I'm not 100% confident in the list and the direction it took it.

And here's the second list, Omnath the ramp master. bog standard mono-green seemed a little dull to me though, and enchantments are my favourite permanent type so here's Omnath enchanter. I'm really happy with this list but other tech cards to throw in would be a great help. Considering throwing in Helix Pinnacle thanks to >>51978179.

>>51980272
Mono red is pretty weak. Goblins or artifact fuckery is about as far as you go with it. If you're looking for a fun, interesting and interactive red general Kurkesh has a very cool effect.

>>51980272
Most mono-red decks are secretly mono-brown, either through Voltron or just general artifacts

>heard it was the weakest single color in edh
Now I know you're just fucking with me

>>51980320
And I forgot the Omath list, what a goof.

http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/omnath-the-enchanted/

Planar Portal, or Planar Bridge? Bridge seems fucking great for permanents since you just cheat shit in, but Portal seems good for just grabbing stuff into your hand

>>51980272
Try Zada. GlassCannon.deck but it can be hilariously fun and frustratingly awful any given game. Also when you play monored if you kill the entire board and yourself at the same time we still count that as a win for you.

>>51980353
Bridge seems more efficient, although it's really down to preference.

Hey /tg/, Im need help with my Riku deck. Can you suggest some fun spicy cards?

>>51980391
Seems like you should be running Far Wanderings in there for sure, it's pretty much a direct upgrade over Rampant.

>>51980375
I think so too. The deck I'm testing it in runs a lot of permanents too so I think I'm going to replace Portal when I order cards next

>so what do you do with the lifegain tho?

there are a few wincon cards in my list that utilize high life totals, like test of endurance and aetherflux reservoir and such. but i also use that lifegain to draw tons of cards with black's draw effects. it's nice to pop necropotence 40 times and be totally fine afterwards. it's also fun to win with an arbitrary alternate wincon like test of endurance, fits very well into orzhov's themes of being a bullshit taxman lawyer guy

lifegain isn't necessarily strong if your meta runs a lot of voltron, combo or infect style decks, but in my home meta of "smash everyone with creatures and burn" it works pretty well. i actually had a kokusho lifegain deck that was much stronger but i had to take it apart since it was so oppressive

>>51980636
Amonket is a -1/-1 counter set, and dirty mike was clearly a mistake. Buy him now before he becomes pre-mm17 damnation expensive.

What's the most obscure/uncommon, but still viable tribal group? I've found Fungus and Spiders are up there but is there anything else?

So here's my current run, open to suggestions.

(inb4 counterspell is better than cancel in every way. I'm aware I just don't have one.)

>>51980699
I'm glad investment had scare quotes around it, and stronghold is a good choice. I just wanted you to be aware that an expensive fun card is about to go nuts, and if you wanted one for your build, now is the time.

>>51980712
Counterspell is dirt cheap dude, you might as well go for it.

xenagos is hard to play without being a total dick. i had him for like 4 months but ended up taking him apart. he's a very binary commander when it comes to playing the game, either he kills a player or the entire table in a single turn, or he gets fucked by spot removal over and over until he loses. i've since moved all my big gruul creatures over to a maelstrom deck, and i find that deck much more fun to play in comparison since it's a little more telegraphed and stable than xenagos is.

however, if you do want to be that guy who smashes a player with a trampling 80/80 boar token, then yeah, go right ahead and build xenagos

i can't speak for how good obzedat is, though. i'd rather build kambal or karlov or something for orzhov lifegain

>>51980698
How so? I plan on running a shot load of draining and life gain effects and exsanguinate

Well that's kinda disappointing. I just wanted an excuse to use my Garruk Wildspeaker, Koth, and Dragon Broodmother. I also really like his planeswalker card. Are there any more fun or less targetable gruul commanders?

Yeah that's why I like him, he protects himself pretty well and is just an all around cool card. I was just curious on how to 'build it right' because Obzedat does seem like it can be very fun

>>51980794
i know it's not really what you asked, but the best commander for throwing gruul fatties and planeswalkers at your opponents is maelstrom wanderer. my maelstrom deck is about 90% gruul and 10% blue cards, and those blue cards are basically just dedicated to card draw.

most gruul commanders don't really support big timmy creature strats, and the ones that do are kind of subpar. i guess you can do what >>51980822 said but i recommend at least trying maelstrom wanderer on tappedout or something. here's my list if you want to goldfish: http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/smashmaster-2000/

I play Portal in my Memnarch and it's great with the mana acceleration that deck has. I'm gonna include Bridge, but Portal is more versatile since it can grab nonpermanents, like Argivian Restoration or a counterspell.
That said, both are worth including in deck that can generate mana like little chinese boys generate Nike shoes

>>51980879
She's Combo: the commandering so the possibilities you have are endless

>>51980879
She's just not the current meme. When the decks were spoiled everyone was jacking off about Breya for about a solid month, but she's not the Flavor of the Month this month. I've seen her used as an Eggs commander, but mostly she's just "Sharuum, except you can run a half-dozen red artifact support spells"

>>51980850
Mina and Denn could pile on pretty well with some landfall effects, Oran-rief hydra would please the average Timmy with that kind of output. Other than that? Ulasht and Atarka, ehhh

Welp, nobody is going to buy my kaalia precon at a reasonable price. What do I build with her, and does it need to include MLD

>>51980922
Sideways big dudes.

>>51980850
I really like that, I may do that instead of Xenagos. I also have a tooth and nail just sitting in a binder I bought forever ago and it looks like it could fit right in. Thank you!

>>51980901
Funnily enough, I still most often win with the Sharuum combo in my Breya deck. Everyone in my playgroup's just not ever letting actual Breya stuff happen.

>>51980949
I know I'm just biased against her because I don't like her, but every Breya deck I see just looks (to me, mind you) like "Sharuum.dec, with like a total of 10 red cards/cards specifically for Breya that don't really work with Sharuum".

>>51980922
A good Kaalia should include MLD and pnly handful of good dragons, demons and/angels. Bad Kaalia decks should just blindly ramp into her and try to attack at sanic speeds. Kaalia should be a finisher, not treated as a bad Elvish Piper.

>>51980949

Nah, pretty much all of those most definitely would work with Sharuum if it weren't for the colors.

I just finished ordering. Pretty excited to finally own a Massacre Wurm.

>>51981015
No no, you misunderstand!

I mean there's "red cards which Sharuum would play if she could" like Fireweaver and Scrap Mastery and the like

And "cards which Sharuum CAN already play, but probably wouldn't, but which combo with Breya".

Didn't come in the mail, but the guy who runs the Magic section at my LGS decided to start trading away some of the harder to sell pieces for cards that are easier to liquify (Shocks, Spellskites, Cavern of Souls etc)

So I finally got this baby.

Picture for reference, not actual card.

>>51981063
What did you trade it for?

>>51981042
At least wait until we reach page 7/8 or something.

>>51981075
A fucking ton of cards I haven't been able to trade away in the 5-10 range as well as a few cards around $20-50 (3x Through the Breach doing up the majority).

Was probably around 30-40 cards.

>>51981100
Most notable of the cards I was glad to be rid of was a playset of Sorin, Solemn Visitor, Master of Pearl Trident and Lord of Atlantis.
