What is the current thread question?
>>53331726
How many cards can you fit up your butt?
>>53331764
Straight or rolled up?
>>53331818
Your choice but I suppose rolled up would get you better results.
>>53331726
What's your favorite mono color commander, and why is it Sekki, Season's Guide?
So the four commander 2017 decks are going to be tribal themed. Do you think they're going to go the obvious route and go elves, goblins, zombies, and... Something?
>>53332555
Knights probably. Or soldiers.
>>53332606
Panharmonicon. Conjurers closet.
>idrinkyourmilkshake.dec
>>53332604
Seems like the obvious choice, but I don't know how much tribal support throughout all of magic's history soldiers have. And I don't know how excited players would be about a soldier deck. (Both go the same for knights)
Who else hopes for a 2017 Runo Stromkirk printing as a Grixis vampire tribal commander?
>>53332683
Ignore me, I didn't notice this was a Mono-color thread.
>>53332678
They made a giant tribal in 2015. Soldier tribal is easy doable. And don't forget they're gonna print more commander specific cards.
I wanted to try making this card my commander. Is it any good?
>>53334358
Yes. I've played against a couple Yasova decks, they're fairly powerful and always interesting.
>>53332606
Gonti's fun. Make way for the actual best mono black commander.
I need a low power cheap mono color commander
my high power iszada[/spoler]
what do you recommend /mtg/?
>>53334890
>>53334890
Sram
Am I missing something? The other thread seems to be well away from both bump limit and image limit.
>>53335069
>sram
>cheap
those swords say you are wrong
>>53334977
cool
but what's the win con
I'm making my first mono coloured deck, Soraya the Falconer. Also never made a tribal deck, and I've barely ever play white, which is why I chose it.
So, I want to add in a couple of cards that fuck with one of the decks of each of my main opponents, but really poorly. One guy has Jhoira which is mostly dragon/wizard tribal, so I've got Dragonstalker for that, one guy has Might Morphin' Animar, so I have Aven Farseer and Aven Soulgazer, but I'm having trouble deciding on the third guy. He has Rashmi and Saskia. Saskia's very broad, doesn't do anything specific other that "hit you", so I'm thinking maybe something like Prophecy or Visions to fuckle with Rashmi. He's also known for running Mind's Desire, hence I thought about Aura Extraction, which messes with the top of the deck as well, handily.
Or if anyone can think of a bird that does anything to do with the top of the deck (poorly), that'd be perfect.
>>53334358
I run mine every now and then for 1v1. It's 60% voltron off auras and equipment, and 40% shenanigans. It may be somewhat degenerate as I enjoy abusing Yasova's synergy with Willbreaker, but hey it's fun for me. I can drop a link if you'd like
>Deck help needed please
>Link: http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/necrotic-agriarianism/
Recently got the cards in the maybeboard, and I'm looking at working them in. However I'm having trouble removing things for them
New cards for possible inclusion:
>Fog
>Spore Frog
>Vampire Hex
Any suggestions, tips are appreciated friends
is it possible to make a budget deck with azusa as the commander and still be viable?
I never played commander but azusa is waifu tier, I wanna play her
>>53335632
define budget, as Azusa is a 30 dollar card last I checked. But other than her, just throw in a bunch of cheap ($) fatties and ramp and you should be fine, depending on your meta
>>53335200
Build Sram enchantress then.
>>53335200
Sram is cutest enchantress, don't bully him with steel.
>>53334358
It's a good color combination and funny to play. The deck does just one thing though, steal creatures. I haven't played my Yasova deck too often, but I can imagine that it gets boring after a while.
Is there just one good reason why Cyclonic Rift shouldn't be banned? Even the people that actually play it are ashamed of it every time they do.
How the fuck do I beat Orzhov partners? It's too fucky grindy to beat in a fair game, and the guy that plays it always has removal in hand or a pact effect on the field to stop combos.
>>53337215
Is there any good reason for it to be banned?
>tfw casting Sunder with few mana rocks on the field just when the UG ramp faggot cast Boundless realms for 8 on turn 4
The salt was palpable
>>53337333
P L A Y S T A X
>>53332606
Good, but the combo gets stale and is highly dependent on your opponents playing good decks.
>>53334609
It's actually worse than a vanilla creature, since there is little you can do to combo off one card turn 4 and even then you have to give your opponents 3 opportunities to handpick a removal spell (and if they search for THEIR combo pieces, you are fucked).
>>53337333
Get your manacurve in order and race. Use hatebears and gravehate. Put other silver bullets in the deck
>>53337215
I'll give you one reason: if your decks is monoblue and you can't counter everything, there are like 2 or 3 cards that can deal with hexproof crap and give you time not to get stomped by some green ramp. Shame part is bs, it's you who should be ashamed of over-committing to the board.
A shoutout to good old Xiahou, a shame I was never able to get the actual card. Other than that, it's Azami, Kamahl, Daretti and Darien.
>>53332683
I'd cum buckets.
Building that stormy lass atm. All is good and Grixis is my favourite color combo, but she screams "vintage" and I'm hesistant to shell for things like Yawg Will and Mana Crypt. It's like $5000 fully finished with Candelabra, Timetwister and all that.
