Of all the accidental 6 card combos I've come across in my decks, this is the only one.

>>54788942
>Ever discovered a combo in your deck that you initially didn't know was there?
I test pretty exhaustively now with tappedout or such before building and playing "live" but when I built just from crap I had lying around I'd goodstuff into combos fairly often.

>>54788942
>Ever discovered a combo in your deck that you initially didn't know was there?
All the time, every deck. I build a lot of moving and sweet pieces. Goodstuff midrange THOTs begone.

>two dominaria spoilers

who's taking bets on teferi or jhoira in wizards?

>>54789011
C15 was pretty good. Sure, Meren is a lot better than Kalemne, but out of the box they were pretty balanced and they all have their niches, plus Karlov, Mazirek, Kaseto, Arjun, and Anya are all at least half decent, if not F U N.

>>54789036
Jhoira just got a reprint a few months back.

I think they'll be saving Teferi for the return to Dominaria.

I just dismantled Ghave for some Alesha parts, and now I have a Saffi Eriksdottir without a home. How do people usually build her?

>>54789058
Saffi is creature combo with Sun Titan, Reveillark, Renegade Rallier, or Karmic Guide and a sac outlet.

>>54789011
2016 was for value. Basically all of the decks were, at MSRP, worth it to pick up for parts, sporting like $80+ of value in any given precon.

For out-of-the-box play, probably 2015.

paradox engine + erratic portal + kozilek. in retrospect i don't know how i missed it.

>>54789139
No, Sun Titan and Saffi with an Altar of Dementia or Blasting Station as an outlet goes infinite and wins.

>>54789094
you're spending turns sacrificing a lot of cards in order to swap or bring back artifacts from the graveyard but you dont have many (or any) valuable artifacts worth the effort, everything is dirt cheap im not sure I get it.

But uh,
1x Creeping Renaissance
1x Mimic Vat
1x Mizzix's Mastery
1x Regrowth

>>54789165

what was erratic portal doing in your deck before being a combo piece? just there to recast kozi but you didnt realize you could do it infinitely with paradox engine and rocks?

>>54789201
commander was venser, but i didn't have color-producing rocks for it to be infinite

>>54789057
He probably meant a brand new Jhoira, but I think she would appear in the Dominaria set instead.

What is the best tech for the new wizard general that clones wizards?

>>54789294
Dualcaster Mage. Clone wizards to clone spells to clone spells to clone wizards.

>>54789198
i might put in creeping renaissance. why would i use mizzix's mastery? i have next to no instants/sorceries, unless you meant scrap mastery. it's artifact tokens to make akiri beefy and also cheap mana rocks to be able to dump mana into thrasios, with some recursion effects for fun

Help me find things to take out of this Wort spell slinger deck so I can put in Increasing Vengeance

Also what a piece of crap, we get a more expensive Second Harvest and a worse Parallel Evolution

>>54789294
She has good synergy with Anathemancer

>>54789459

It's called angel's grace, but yeah sounds fun

It's also great to just have Swords, path, wear//tear, etc on deck

>>54789294
dualcaster mage, archeomancer/chronologist, puppeteer clique, sea gate oracle, sower of temptation, venser, snapcaster, trinket/treasure/trophy mage are the only notable ones i can find. i guess that's the price of having the most versatile effect outside of a tribal deck. on the plus side, you can tutor for any of them with vedalken aethermage.

>>54789419
What are you going to do to make them worth it?

>>54789459
Having Black or Blue as a third color for 'Forger makes it amazing, I recommend something like Zurgo or maybe Shu Yun as the general.

Ugin confirmed then?

>>54789512
Run literally any other utility creature with a half-decent ETB.

Can I get some advice for a judge/police deck? It's a group huggy control idea of supplying everyone with cards and other resources for a level playing field, while being able to stop someone from comboing off or a board state getting out of hand. I'd want to help a lagging player get ahead, or allow myself to be bribed for favors.

Problem with those is most are one-sided. They'd have to be like Council's Judgement.

>>54789684

>>54789669
Not just the new ones, curses in general are great for that, though the Commander curses are the most encouraging for your other foes, whether this years or the old ones.

>>54789743
Eh, a lot of the Conspiracy mechanics tend to be in the interest of the group, with you being able to pull ahead using a few of their more aggressive cards. There's definitely fun to be had with it and I'd still go through the Conspiracy 1 and 2 card list and see if some of them are interesting to you.

>>54789669
So is there some story behind this fag in the new curses? Or did the artist just get the note "Draw the dumbest looking nu-male you can"?

>>54789837
I think the latter, he's not any lore character I know, and I know quite a lot.

File: image.jpg (243KB, 1024x768px) Image search: [Google]

243KB, 1024x768px

>>54789837
The artist very likely is a nu-male himself and looks somewhat like that character or at least is comfortable with people looking that way. That style is his normal.

As annoying as you find it, remember that this has been happening since before you were born and hair like that will look silly in 20 years like mullets and big hair look to us today.

>>54789613
The problem with group hug is that it helps more to those who don't need it and because you "help" people first most of the time and spend your resources to do that - you end up not being able to stop those who got even more far ahead.

Obviously it depends on group, but group hugs decks just make whatever is the best deck on the table win so much faster, really.

>>54789859
Curse of Vitality, Disturbance, and Bounty make me think that this guy is probably from Innistrad, where you can find wolves, zombies, and pitchfork wielding mobs.

Actually, if the pirates are the bad guys, which isn't even clear yet, 3 of their captains are women.
The dinosaur lady also is clearly female.
Hell, even the vampire leader seems to be a woman, since "Mynea" sounds like a girl's name.

So far, it looks like it'll be a gold rush story of every faction trying to reach "Eldorado" first with Jace thrown in the middle of everything as a psychic jungle man.

But whatever I now know better, thanks.

>>54790098
It is though. It's one of the reserved list cards that was reprinted in foil during the brief time where wotc tried doing foil reprints as a way to circumvent it.

>>54790286
Side thought, but I don't think I've every seen a vampire with a full beard outside of V:tM.

>>54790081
very few of the characters depicted in medieval fantasy settings have medieval haircuts. the fact that you are just now realizing this doesn't merit posting.

and it's actually very practical for an artist to use themself as a model if they need to do a series of illustrations depicting the same character. you can hire a model to pose for you but within financial and scheduling constraints using yourself is much more common and practical.

>>54790081

Drinking blood can get very messy.
Don't want to have to deal with dried blood in the beard, that shit sucks (pun intended)

>>54790290
It was mostly >>54790288, because a duel deck like Phyrexia v. Coalition was so much more widely available than FtV. That's when people were like "Alright, this is too far, the List essentially doesn't matter now".

>>54790291
Does it really? I've seen much stupider haircuts. I don't get what people mean with this "numale" shit.

any good ETB effects in red and white?

>>54790290

There was a short window where Wizards decided printing Reserve List cards was okay as long as they were foil and in non-random product. See also, Phyrexian Negator being the face card for Phyrexia vs. the Coalition.

Apparently collectors complained and they shut the loophole.

>>54790334
See >>54790358

It wasn't what card they reprinted, it was how they reprinted it. If they'd kept to Judge Foils, FtVs, and other super rare reprints, they'd probably have gotten to do it much longer.

>>54790288
MtG """"Collectors""""" and """"Investors""""" are the cancer actively killing the game.

It's not like anybody is ever going to fucking buy their graded Beta Black Lotuses for actual play anyway and reprinting the card to be used for play would still keep the old one in demand.
Fuck, just make all of the reprinted ones count as proxies and illegal for tournaments. Selling them as official proxies for use in private would not hurt collectors, would have no impact on the competitive scene and casuals would benefit by getting high-quality proxies for cards they always wanted for cheap while WotC would be able to sell those proxies for money and possibly drive some of the Chinamen out of business.

>>54790334
More Wizards flew too close to the sun by using the face card of a Duel Deck as the "special premium release" exemption rather than limited-run FTV.

>>54790359
In today's world, only Hipsters, Cucks, and Nu-Males ("men" that bow down to any demand made by their superior feminist women overlords), and kids that don't know any better have that kind of haircut.

No, they aren't. They buy and sit on the cards, never actually playing with them. You know, that thing players do. And who gives a fuck about undercutting them?

A vast majority of collectors sitting on practically whole collections of reserved lists, owning several copies of dual lands, lotuses and other shit don't buy any of the new product anymore, because why would they when Wizard's isn't going to print anything for them anyway and they already have thousands of dollars in cards banked at home.

Which led to a knee-jerk reaction from Wizards and has continued to hurt the best formats the game has to offer.

Yes. I run Ghave and while I do run Infinites(just to keep up with the local meta) I've discovered some pretty sweet combos.

Last night I pulled a fairly substantial board wipe/Grave Hate combo taking out everyone's creatures using Night Soil, Utopia Mycon, and Butcher of Malakir. A great alternative combo when everyone goes after Ghave.

>>54789459
Mistveil Plains + two white permanents is a good way to constantly cycle the Final Fortune. I had this combo in my Jor Kadeen deck.

>Hell, just imagine how sweet all your Commander decks would be if you could get dual lands for the price of a shock land or even as fetchlands.

it wouldn't really make a very big difference. this isn't legacy. you can play nothing but basics and it's actually fine.

>>54790575
I'm more amazed none of you saw that shit coming.

If someone suggests banning X card, it's always because there's hidden agenda to it. Note that it's not same as asking someone to tune down his deck or not run it, if it's too fast/powerful.

>>54790614
Tell that to my 5 color God tribal deck.

>>54790526
But that's wrong. My group actually had some really fun games where we went all out with our fast mana and more competitive combos. I wouldn't do it all the time because it doesn't make for long games, but it does lead to some tense games that seem like they could end at any time.

>>54790564
There's just so few reasons to run Legion over Overlord.
You can have a recurrable Coat of Arms as a Commander or you can have a card that can tutor at will and also steal opponents creatures if you tech in things like Unnatural Selection.
It's better for winning and it's better for fun.

>>54790415
I disagree, as a collector myself, it would be best if everyone had access to all the cards at a reasonable price, so it would be easier to collect them, not only me, but also other collectors.

They are looking after the big stores that buys shitton of boxes of boxes and makes profit out of it. They buy and sell cards that might spike or not in bulk as if they were stock market.

>>54790614
>>54790600
Wait, you people don't use proxies for over-priced cards in your groups?

The only people that ever opposed that were those who want to be the only ones with those cards.

Yeah, we've since just started slotting it out when he's around and otherwise running it, since he's not playing with us on the regular anymore anyway and we'd rather save us the bitching and instead simply hate him off the board for so long that he needs to get his shit back together for a few turns.

i don't really care about proxies but if somebody shows up with a 5000 dollar deck in proxies they are probably not a fun person to hang out with

Guys help

My meta is "turn creatures sideways" and as a creature-light combo player, I get fucked up unless I can pull a combo off. What commanders let me combat the Timmy menace?

Since we're talking about proxies for expensive cards, where do you get yours or how do you make them?

There's a handful of things I'd like to upgrade my decks with but some of it costs more than I'm willing to pay and I don't want to slap down the old "backwards card with scribbled sheet of paper" or "backwards card with shitty printed card image".
Any good tips on how to make some cheap and easy ones yourself that at least look acceptable and have the same shape/thickness as a regular card without gluing or anything like that? Buying from china with that shit is always such a hassle and can still end up pretty expensive with shipping.

>>54790630

It CAN be fun, but there's been too many games where somebody wins the dice roll and plays turn 1 Crypt + other mana rock and steamrolls the game

It's NEVER a bad game when everybody starts off at non-broken speed, everybody gets to play their cards and their decks get to do what they were built to do.

Wizards needs to creat "Command Boosts," booster packs that contain everything everyone includes in their deck:

1x Sol Ring
1x Command Tower
1x Command Beacon/Sphere
12 assorted unique Tap-lands in Wedges, 6 unique Tap-lands in Dual, with 6 Full Art Lands.

And the rarity or value Tap-lands can shake things up a bit, maybe even throw in some Masterwork Sol Rings in there.

That's what I keep hearing, but I'm gonna stick to my guns long enough to try Legion out. I'll have Overlord and Hivelord at least in the deck, so really I can change commanders up and if I like one of the others better, I'll probably change the deck up to fit it better.

There are plenty of times that doesn't happen in more casual games. It's not as often as someone may combo off in a more competitively tuned game, but it's easy to get screwed over in regular games nonetheless. I maintain that it's good to switch between both every now and then when one can manage it, but only if everyone is playing at the same level. The important part is that everyone in a group should play decks of a similar powerlevel.

Even if everybody is in a similar power level, fast mana increases the variance in a negative way, there's just no consistent way to compete with fast mana unless you get your own, so every time the fast mana draws are distributed unevenly the game is ruined

>>54790880

It depends on the kind of variance. You can build your deck to consistently do something conservative, but there's nothing you can do to consistently beat fast mana except to have your own

If there was no fast mana, the variance would be all fun. It already is mostly fun since I don't have to deal with too much fast mana because of the variance. Fast mana is just gay as fuck, people who like it are fucking shit eating faggots, case closed

>>54790803
The thing is that Sol Ring helps everyone while not having is helps all Timmy decks able to cheat shit out fast, as demonstrated by >>54790575 and punishes people for not playing decks that don't need any mana to get shit done. For decks like those, drawing Sol Ring usually is at best a difference of playing their "finisher" by turn 3 or turn 4 while the others barely have enough mana for a counter or kill spell and could have had enough to establish something and still keep some open to take care of a threat.

This is an important step in understanding the game. Wotc doesn't officially have a reserved list anymore but they absolutely enforce card prices and never tank the price of a card. The best they'll do is the rare reprint of something like Thoughtseize and the repeated reprints of Tarmogoyf that only serve to keep him stable at $100. Goyf has been $100 for a very long time and he isn't on the reserved list but can be assumed to hold his value.

aren't you supposed to declare attackers and before announcing who you;re attacking give people the opportunity to respond to that? cause if you just say you're attacking someone without giving notice they can technically just respond knowing that theyre being attacked instead of another player??

>>54790449
The "collectors" we are talking about are guys that hoard tons of cards for profit - see: Rudy.

The actual collectors would probably like the cards to be cheaper so they can have everything the want without selling their apartment. I'm not planning on selling what I already have so the value doesn't matter anyway, it would still be cheaper in the long run than if the prices stayed the same.

>>54791872
Yes. Priority passes between each phase. So it would be completely fair to say, "Wait, I wanted to do something at the end of your PreCombat Main Phase"

This is also why I always say, out loud, "Combat" when I'm ready to end my PCMP.

>>54791872
You declare whom youre attacking in the declare attackers sub phase of combat. An attacker is a creature who has a target to swing at. its illegal to just say "I attack" without the follow up of a player unless youre moving to combat, and saying that to give the priority before combat starts.

sorry, i might be unnecessarily confused here but the moment you say "combat," do you need to declare who the blocking player or players will be? i realize you're saying it to let people know that first main is over but what i'm getting at is when precisely the defending player knows hes defending?

>>54791984
as i'm reading, that's the second part of the combat step. so you can say "combat" give people a chance to respond and then declare who is going to catch a beating. meaning once its time to say who is being attacked it's too late to respond to attack step.

i ask because some creatures have "defending player X" so if someone just shouts ATTACKING YOU! before declaring that combat starts you can technically respond to it cause you never knew combat step was coming.
as i see it, there's start combat, attack, block, damage, and end all part of combat step. so the moment you de

Not at all. In Magic, no step of the game proceeds without each playing confirming that they have no new actions to perform (passing priority). Assuming its your turn (you're the Active Player), once you are ready to end your PreCombat Main Phase, it would be considerate to say "Combat" or "Moving to Combat?". This means that you are passing your priority in the PCMP to your opponents, who will in turn pass it provided they have nothing to cast/perform.

Once everyone passes as mentioned above, the game will then enter your Combat Phase. Priority passes again here before the Active Player (You) choose your attackers. Again, here is an easy way of passing priority before attacks are declaring: say "moving to attacks?" or "declaring attackers?" This will let the other players that you are passing priority and is their last chance to perform actions before attackers are declared.
This same cycle occurs after attackers are declared/before blockers are declared. For your opponents, it would be considerate of them to say "declaring blockers? or "moving to blocks?" so that you know you're being given a chance to act before they make their blocks.

These passings of priority are generally understood between players; however, being human, we sometimes forget or don't expect others to take action between these fleeting moments and rush ahead. It is perfectly fine to request backing up to game to the most recent point you should of recieved priority.


TLDR: If all else fails, just say what step of the game you're about to enter and request the same from your opponents. Its a game rule that all must comply with but this isn't a tourneyfag format so their really don't be any problem.

yeah, this has never been a problem its only with very specific cards. most of the time we say "attacking you with X" without going through each step. and we would respond without a problem but cards like kaalia depend heavily on who she's attacking so when you jump straight to "attacking you" one can say responding to you going into combat. had the player waited and done it properly it'd be impossible to respond knowing that you were the target.

>>54792621
That's a good word for it. Like I didn't really win, I was just fencing against a few people and no matter how much back and forth there was I just, at some point, pulled out a gun and blew their damn heads off.

So empty. First time I did it I realize I wasn't a spike

Thanks. Also nah I specifically want Conscripts so I have a chance of Purphoros being a creature. My decks pretty low on red mana symbols.

>>54792659
Walkers are already cancer in the normal game. Why would you think it's any better in a format where you regularly have to wait through two or more additional turns?

>>54792694
I play a lot of Oloro these days but I've been looking for a UW alternative. It'd make my mana base easier and cheaper, maybe draw less insta hate because I have 4 more life than everyone else.

It's known as Stax, which is, indeed, a form of control.

Man I'm real curious as to what Dominaria is going to look like after over a decade

>>54792786
Seeing as it's been between apocalypse after apocalypse for the past few millennia, mostly the same no matter what's happened.

>>54792786
Expect there to be no more male, white good guys and that every peotagonist will be female or female(male) like the last bunch of sets.

And this is literally all red can muster. It definitely helps in some situations, but you'd be kidding yourself if you think a red control deck can hold a candle to actual control colors.

The Invasion really fucked them up though. But places like Krosa are rebounding nicely

>>54792801
Great, love it, so long as drafting is fun and the legendaries are interesting

>>54792785
Whatever happened to that guy? Is he still cursed and running around on Innistrad/Ravnica?

>>54792761
In a multiplayer format, Walkers are only WinCons with Doubling Season.

Play MLD, a big X spell, or just accept that Control's wins are relegated to Combo.

Nigger you're the one suggesting that Red didn't have control. Stop moving goalposts once you're proven otherwise

It's a little out of date, but not by much. The deck doesn't win, but it has fun. Half the joy is seeing how long until you're hated off the table.

>>54792821
>The Invasion really fucked them up though. But places like Krosa are rebounding nicely
The Planar Rifts didn't help anything.

>>54792823
Jace took the hedron from Ob Nixilis' head and stuck it in Garruk's. It halted the progress of the curse and prevented Garruk from becoming a demon, but he was actually enjoying murdering other Planeswalkers, so he has no desire to fully fix the curse and return to normal. Current status is still BG unrepentant Planeswalker hunter.

>>54792830
>big X spell

I've been doing that with Debt to the Deathless and it doesn't feel as slimy as straight up combo. At least I need to survive/have people beat each other down enough to not need massive amounts of mana to win with it.

I figure that some walkers can be wincons with they can't be answered and even if they're not crazy powerful they can do enough to kill people or make them scoop

>>54792823
Nah, somehow he ended up on Shandalar when Liliana was there after Innistrad looking for clues to gaining complete control over the Chain Veil, and Jace weaseled some other poor Walker to go to Zendikar and take the Hedron in Ob Nixilis' forhead out and go back to Shandalar and shove it into Garruk's chest to hold the curse stable.
The curse is still there, just no longer advancing or taking Garruk over.

>>54792727

The irony is fucking delicious.

>>54792868
No, I suggested that red isn't a control color. Posting a few examples of red cards that have some negative effects on opponents doesn't make red a control color any more than Hornet Sting makes green a burn color.

But cool strawman.

>pointing out how you literally have no argument is a meme

Okay now that was funny.

Is 14/30 of my creatures are artifacts and I have seventeen noncreature artifacts do you think Scrap Mastery is justified for my Kiki Jiki deck?

I wanted to fit a Mirror works in but I cant decide what to cut from the 5+ CMC.

>>54792888


Wait, Ob lost his spark again? Kinda feel bad.

I like lore and all but I find a lot of magic's lore articles really boring.

>>54792893
>>54792855
I like this idea, him going nuts and all. That's fun

>>54792911
No, taking out the Hedron just loosened up his shapeshifting and allowed him to regrow his wings. He stole power from the Hedron Network while the Allies were attempting to seal Ulamog, which he used to reignite his spark.

>>54792957
>Wait, Ob lost his spark again? Kinda feel bad.
No, that all happened before Ob got his spark back.

>>54792949

I mean invader parasite is one of the worst cards ever, so I would cut that for just about anything. Whether that should be mirror works is another story

>>54792957
He lost it, Jace took the hedron out, Ob did some fuckcrazy ritual and got his spark back, then summoned Kozilek

>>54792958
Would he have been able to do that without his shapeshifting and wings? The way I see it, things would have gone a lot better for them without that.

>>54792830
Really thinking about it though, this is true. What the hell other options do I have? If I'm not attacking to win, I need to be doing some kind of combo or big spell and if they both feel slimy then I'm just plain fucked.

I'll give Blightsteel a shot but keep a combo in there just in case. It'll be fun to try and keep him and myself alive for the few turns that are needed to close it all out.

>>54792976
I assume it's there since most Kiki decks have additional ways to clone, and so it's probably there to allow him to repeatedly exile any land he wants whenever he wants, by cloning it with Kiki.
It's not great, I'll give you that, but it's better here than normal decks.

Wanna bet they'll market Dominaria having niggers as if it was breaking archetypes and there had never before been any black people in Magic ever?

They've been losing money since OGW, just like Marvel's been losing money since they killed Cyclops and replaced all MCU white male protags with women and POCs. The funding for agenda pushing must be billions, or maybe the cultural Marxism is so deeply ingrained now they don't even care if the company goes down, private property is white cishet opression anyway!

>>54792513
Yes. This is perfect for my "exiling my opponents shit before they get to cast it" monoblack deck.

Not even kidding.

>>54793002

True, playable I guess. And it gets better with other etb land destruction you might run in Kiki like avalanche riders because land destruction is sort of cumulative

Maybe I was too hasty, I just saw that other ability was terrible in edh

>>54793053
That's part of the point, Dominaria has always had a black population. But they'll still make a bunch of revisionist pandering articles about it being something new and "brave" just so they can keep tonguing tumblr's asshole for /leftypol/ good boy points.
