THREAD QUESTION

What's the deck you wanna build but haven't? Why?
>>
Hey EDH. I'm thinking on what to build for my third deck and I was wondering:

Is it possible to build a decent Child of Alara deck on budget? I'm kind of a poorfag atm.

Also, what are some good budget decks you recommend?
>>
>>53674640
Enduring Ideal, now that you can become completely immune to attacks with Sandwurm Convergence and Form of the Dragon. Dies to an overloaded Cyclonic Rift though
>>
>What's the deck you wanna build but haven't?
Atraxa Superfriends, 'cause planeswalkers are neat and stuff, and she's obviously a superior choice.

>Why?
I mean.. it feels like everyone I play with already has a deck like that, so I don't know. I don't like running "the usual".
>>
>>53674640
>What's the deck you wanna build but haven't? Why?
Freyalise control. I've been brewing it for A G E S and while I feel like I've got the tools, like Freyalise's Winds and Ritual of Subdual, stax package and big draw, but it never seems to quite come together.

On that note
>"Help Me Dammit" Edition
Lost in the Woods with mana base of 40x Forest, Lost in the Woods with 35x Forest and a few more rocks (The deck already has several), LitW & 5-10 utility lands, or cut Lost and do Utility Lands and/or Rocks? How about Rowen versus Land Base?
>>
>>53674870
>Form of the Dragon
>Sandwurm Convergence
>Dovescape
>>
>>53674793
Anything mono colored.
As for a budget 5 color deck, the weakness will always be your mana.
You can make a really good manabase for cheap, but it will be slow.

You can also make a fast one, but it will be terribly inconsistent.|

Which deck do I work on next?

Feldon will be Feldon, fill up your graveyard with Rummage and some reanimation stuff.
Mayael will be a linear big creatures with ETBs, kinda more of a deck aimed at lower power play.
Samut, which is focused on infinite combat steps.

Also, does anybody know any good people for doing Alters? I'd really like a decent alter of Samut, doesn't even have to be anime or cheesecake.

How bad were the printing issues with the early sets exactly? I have ordered a couple of legends and antiquities cards and it seems that the ratio of visibly off-center cards amongst them (enough to be considered "marked" even) is staggeringly high. Do I just have bad luck getting more quality copies or were they really just that hit and miss with the printing runs back in the day?

Atraxa superfriends is fun. Atraxa can be a dick commander if built dickish but personally I feel atraxa superfriends is slightly less dickish than some of her other variations like atraxa infect

I'd have to say either phelddagrif or a colorless deck with the new kozilek as the commander
>Phelddagrif
-i like political decks
-i think he's cute
- kind of a symbol for edh
- could be a secretly deadly deck to catch people off guard
the only reason I haven't is because I have no idea what to put in it
>kozilek
- colorless is cool
- manabase would be way different than all my other decks
-Eldrazi have neat designs
- could be really powerful
the reason I haven't built it is because I would want to go all out and that would be really expensive

>>53677306
Not anymore with Anointed Procession. Nearly all token specific buffs are in White and there are plenty of Zombie token generators out there in Black so it *COULD* be done. Sure it doesn't work as well without Green, but that's not to say it couldn't be done.

I wouldn't sweat it unless player targeting effects are huge in your meta. Burning a deck slot because 'this one card fucked my shit up that one time' is not solid reasoning. Especially if the effect is super narrow like giving yourself hexproof.

>>Thread question
Maelstrom Wanderer.

>>Why?
I have a Yidris voltron deck that I am taking apart and MW was a part of the cascade subtheme. So I have about 60% of the parts I need. I just don't know how to abuse Cascade, cascade off an 8 drop. My first thought was 7 drop tribal. Then I saw some lists that boiled down to board wipes and jokulhaups. Which is amazing, but still unsatisfying. Temur goodstuff seems like a safe bet for testing it out. I don't know what to do.

What lists have you seen or played against that really made the most of cascade, cascade?

is sheldon's banlist actually good for the format?

>typical spike enters the format for a while
>sees that it's already solved because the banlist is retarded, only really like 3 viable decks
>makes a deck anyway
>everyone laughs at him because commander is a clown format for casuals thanks to sheldons retarded banlist
>spike can't prove his superiority to everyone else and gets laughed out of the format
>people can still enjoy their gimped 75% edh

however, if you started making edh a balanced format with a good banlist, then suddenly everyone would be trying to break the format again, which would attract tons of spikes from shittier formats like modern and legacy, and then you wotc would see that people are paying top dollar for the new sick tier 1 decks and would probably print a mythic that lets you win really easy in the next conspiracy set (only running in print for 2 days)
>>
>>53679819
What's a good banlist, smart guy?
>>
>>53679853
the exact same but even more shit unbanned

actually just make it legal to declare yourself the winner on turn 1 if you're going first

Advice to beat Nekusar
I am about to go in deep on a competitive narset deck but might build something else so I can actually play the game when someone whips him out
>>
>>53681776
There's one white Devoid Eldrazi out there as well as several transforming Eldrazi from Eldritch Moon (though I doubt they'd appear in the deck, Wizards will probably make the Legendaries 5 color to leave the option open to include them).

This is, of course, assuming Eldrazi are one of the four.

Actually, now that I think of it, a potential 5 color Eldrazi legendary could actually come from Innistrad.
>>
>>53681840
Necropotence ain't bad, aside from that aggressive resource denial, while not a specific counter to Nekusar, should hardlock him out of the game. His reputation alone should enable you to politic the table against him anyways.

I feel like I should elaborate. I have some cards that like me having basic forests
>Patron of the Orochi, Lost in the Woods, Rowen.
>To a lesser extent Bane of Progress and Wave of Vitriol.
And also some nonland ramp already in place
>Sol Ring, Mana Vault, Mind Stone, Moss Diamond, Thran Dynamo, Worn Powerstone, Fyndhorn Elves, and sort of Freyalise herself

Right now, I've set aside my slots for 40 forests. But I feel like I could drop 5 for
>Thought Vessel, Coldsteel Heart, Magnifying Glass, Hedron Archive, and Dreamstone Hedron, possibly Mana Crypt if I can get a good deal or decide to drop mad dosh on this build
or
>Arcane Lighthouse, Reliquary Tower, Blighted Woodland, Myriad Landscape, and either Maze of Ith or Glacial Chasm to get some breathing room
or 10 forests for both, but I'm somewhat concerned about reducing the draw power of Rowen and the defensive capability of Lost in the Woods for what might be little gain, especially with the both package, since those cards want basics in my deck.

Advice?

If you are only attacking 2 people at the same time, pick gahiji instead.
You get the same boost to power, and you get to add green.

Also if you need to alpha strike one person down with all your dudes you can do that without losing power. She is a very subpar choice unless you routinely play in 6+ player games (and in that case, you are a poor fucking bastard in the first place for trying any aggro strats)

The spell won't even go onto the stack until it's costs are paid, so it would check after.

It also encourages your opponents to beat down on each other, because Gahiji buffs up anyone that attacks an enemy.

They don't instant kill someone if that's what you're asking.

Gisela works, as does Hidetsugu, though Hidetsugu might kill you too.

Boon Reflection, while quaint, is completely out-competed by Alhammaret's Archive.
Thought Reflection is disgustingly expensive.
Rage Reflection is a simple enchantment, but has some use. At the same cost (but different mana balance) is the superior True Conviction, however.
As for Wound Reflection, it's just not as valuable as it looks.

When you think about it, Thought Reflection is scarcely better than Alhammarret's Archive too. It gets you one extra card a turn for sure, but for everything else, the archive is two reflections in one, for a mere 5 mana.

What's really weird is that Burning of Xinye and Wildfire have literally the exact same printed text, but Burning was errata'd to target one opponent and destroy lands, and Wildfire was errata'd to be global and sacrifice lands.

Sorry, ignore that bit about Gisela, though she's certainly helpful in letting you go full aggro and keeping people from gangbanging you. But she's the best way to use Hidetsugu, because together if you're ever allowed to tap Hidetsugu with Gisela on the board, you win. It's one of my go tos in Kaalia.

I'm considering a Reaper King deck and play it solely as casual WUG deck, using the King himself as some rather expensive catchall removal and letting me use some hybrid cards that I normally wouldn't be able to. How bad of an idea is this? I'm only doing this since the only WUG commander I want is Angus, and he's $50+.
Also why is the foil version so expensive?

Reaper is one of the most popular generals so his foil would naturally be more valued.

Actually, less common, since the Gods could be pre-release promos. The rarity of Invocations is about equal to foil mythics though, so otherwise they're about the same.

Storm. It costs thousands to do right and then your group won't play with you.

>tfw my only pre-release promo was Kefhnet
It was pretty nice. Also everyone seems to dislike the invocations but I really like them. I guess my opinion is just shit.

Shu yun is pretty effective with cantrips, eggs, mana rocks, and 'free' spells like Frantic Search. Just gotta make sure you're landing your double strike activation and it should play itself.

I respect your opinions even if they are different than mine.

Sheldon's banlist is more or less best for the format.

Trying to make a list for spikes is foolish for two reasons.
*1 That list would be 200 cards, then I, erm, spikes would find another broken interaction and then there would be 201, and so on.
*2 Having a long banlist encourages proof by exception. "look, this card isn't on the banlist. I'm entitled to abuse it."

Writing a banlist for people that want to break the format is like writing a cook book for people that want to intentionally make bad food. A malicious chef is going to ruin the food no matter what you do, so why bother writing for them?

Yes, sol ring mana crypt are better than most of the banned cards. Power level isn't the issue here and treating EDH like its ban list should have the same mentality as standard or modern is retarded.

>>53687886
He can pop one opponent's skull no problem, even if they try to remove him in response and get a one-shot kill. The problem is that he spends a load of cards to do so and basically scoops to persistent Sheoldred-like effects. Also the rest may just gang up on you, which is problem with voltorn
>>
>>53688165

I favor Aurelia. Cheaper than Gisela and she can start swinging right away if that's your plan (though Gisela could technically work as a weird R/W spellslinger commander with her ability if you wanna get creative). Aurelia's a bit more straight forward, however you can use her secondary ability to abuse tapping abilities.

>>53688081
To add to this: EDH is the only format where people can just play their rare/expensive/broken cards for fun. With a more restrictive ban list, pulling a cool masterpiece Sol Ring or that old Vampiric Tutor you've had forever is now worthless. That shouldn't be the case in a "for fun" format.

RTD is a staple for my meta, and when I pull out the baby tier decks it does feel good to cast in my still-in-one-piece gay dudes precon deck

I could see it being good because unlike RTD, when its cast at instant speed it always targets two things.
wouldnt put it in a t1 deck but if you are like me and you are the only person who packs artifact and enchantment hate in your decks then its not bad to toss it in there and cycle it when you draw too much removal

I've always loved Lord of Tresserhorn, but holy fuck it's such a bad card. Turning any piece of removal into a 5-for-1 for your opponent is one of those drawbacks that just invalidate whatever else the card does.

a good commander? really depends on your colors

kokusho is very much underplayed in monoblack, at least if edhrec is any indication, and he's one of the best commanders for the color for a 75% meta

not really sure thats how it works. theres only 3 titans, they exist extradimensionally and interdimensionally. There could be a power vacuum where higher tier eldrazi take up power. This can be just a really strong eldrazi that wasnt killed during oath but not as strong as the titans (and shouldnt be lorewise).
Could have the 5c activated ability since the new eldrazi stole mana (right? or somehow they got colored mana). He could be some amalgamation

why is this janky combo so orgasmic?
>>
>>53691650
I'd cut the artifact lands in favor of more basics. The only synergy they have is with Tezzeret, and that's not worth their frailty. Also Terramorphic Expanse and Evolving Wilds should be in there.
Additionally, I might cut Arlinn and Xenagos. They need more creatures to function well, so maybe consider Chandra Flamecaller, either Kiora, or Sarkhan the Dragonspeaker as cheap alternatives
>>
>>53691667
I say do it and get it out of your system. I made Tasigur goodstuff before I realized how boring it was
>>
>>53688165
I'd say brion or gisela would be the best choices for Boros although I built a random deck out of some junk I have around the new avacyn and I actually really liked her as a commander.

Brion is the most fun to build and if it's a smaller group you can really fuck some people up with commander damage.
>>
>>53691974
That sounds good. I'll replace the lands as you are right I felt they did not have much synergy. I was thinking more Daretti synergy but not worth.

As for Sarkhan, is he that ok? I cant help but not like him that much. I'm also guessing you mean the tap/untap kiora?
>>
>>53691895
play aggressive as fuck so they have to start reacting to it.
>>
>>53692087
Sarkan isnt great, but he's kinda fun if you want to play in turbo topdeck mode. And both Kioras seem like they'd work decently enough. The 2 loyalty one is a bit tough to keep alive though
>>
>>53692217
Yeah the 4/4 dragon can be alright I suppose. I chose the tap kiora for added benefit.

I decided to remove the proliferate cards in my deck because it playtested kind of weak...Replaced them with Bear Umbra, Slip through Space and Distortion strike for the added safety of swinging in with Yidris. Good idea?

>>53692247
Bear Umbra is really good, but the other two might be awkward if you cascade into them

Would a Future Sight theme be a fun idea for a Simic deck?

Not the set, but cards like:

Future Sight
Magus of the Future
Courser of Kruphix
Vizier of the Meangerie
Oracle of Mul Day
Lurking Predators
Mind's Dilation

Thinking of making a Kruphix or Zegana with this theme. I know tg has an irrational hate for Simic, but would this make me "that guy"?

Make it Momir. There's some obvious synergy with getting to play around with the top of your library and Future Sight effects.
>>
>>53692970
Wizards is a huge, unwieldy beast. It takes nearly two years for it to change directions and react to current occurrences. You have to hope they put it in one of the Commander decks or in Iconic Masters when they were being designed, way before the price spike happened, otherwise it has no chance of getting reprinted any time soon.

Considering they completely missed the Cat Lady combo, there's a pretty big chance they didn't notice the Vizier of Remedies/Devoted Druid interactions and so didn't predict or account for Devoted Druid's price spike at all.

How is Momir? I worry tutoring multiple times a turn might be a little unfun. I played Karametra in the past and it always seemed to lag a game down.
>>
>>53693145
Even if they did notice the interaction, they definitely wouldn't have been able to reprint Devoted Druid in a standard legal set. And Ahmonkhet's -1/-1 counter synergies makes the most sense for a reprint out of all other recent sets
>>
>>53693936

>>53694490

Effects like Serra Ascendant only work on the battlefield, but effects like, say, Serra Avatar work in all zones. Something that "gets" +X/+X is fine, but something whose power is equal to */* is not.
>>
>>53694608

Thanks for the clarification, I was actually researching the difference between the state based ability and characteristic defining ability.

The token is still legendary, so no, unless you have a Mirror Gallery in play.
>>
>>53694744
Given O-Kagachi appears to be in the dragon deck it seems doubtful that spirits would be another tribe.
>>
>>53694896

Except these decks ARE tribal, and O-Kagachi is the absolute biggest name in spirits. There are no other spirit legends that are even remotely comparable in their power, scope, and lore position. So to put O-Kagachi in dragons, rather than in spirits? That would be a worse betrayal than having the O-Kagachi be shitty.
>>

Is this rumor or speculation?
>>
>>53695574

Is the Anthology worth it?

New to magic and don't have a lot of cards. Interested in Commander. have friends who also don't have decks built.
>>
>>53695789
If you split the deck? Maybe.
>>
>>53695789
not really. if you split maybe but make sure to get the freyalise or meren because freyalise herself foil is 45$ at my LGS
>>
>>53695789
If you are just grabbing it for cards I recommend just getting any precon, any 2016 one is really good and started my collection well.
>>
>>53695789
If you don't have any of the decks then it is good. I think the best thing to do with these would be to keep them together and play the decks against each other.

It's not an amazing value or anything so don't buy it to flip for money but it includes some slightly expensive cards. Kaalia is the most expensive and her foil currently fetches ~$50.
>>
What are the bestt old commanders? I just cant stand the new cards shit art and that they are played everywhere in my lgs. Is the morph guy viable?
>>
>>53696085
Ixidor? Sure. Other than that, there's plenty of good old commanders, all the way from Legends to the last of the old border. Chainer is one of the better monoblack ones and is pretty cheap as well. Go look through the old sets and find whatever you like.
>>
>>53695921
Honestly Like the Kaalia deck, Cause before I was thinking of building an Alesha Deck since it starts cheap.

when I first tried to get into magic the first time it was Khans and I unpacked Bloodstained Mire. A friend gave me his B/W and R/W shocklands. And a few days ago I unpacked Nahiri (first planeswalker).
So either way Mardu seemes like a good idea.
>>
>>53691772
I think the Lost Titan he's referencing is in relation to the Sun Titan, Frost Titan Grave Titan, Inferno Titan, Primeval Titan cycle
>>
>>53691895
Include cards like Rogue's Passage so the poor Kalemne deck isn't perma-chumped. She's a decent clock if allowed to connect.
>>
>>53684814
Oracle is probably my favourite card in Magic, and boy is she a fickle bitch.
