How do you make Archenemy work with commander, aside from "poorly". Jack up the Archenemy's life and commander damage necessary?

No commander damage rule, 80 or 100 life for the archenemy, and no infinite combos. Being the 1 guy trying to stop 3 others from combining off turn 4 sounds like hell

I'm hoping they give Boros a few more "everyone but target opponent gets nice things" since it fits in white and red, as well as being a decent way of giving boros actual card draw.
>>
>>54880824
It always pains me to see this. I look through the catalog of Boros commanders, and I'm always dissapointed.
You have Aurelia, Gissela, Iroas, Maybe Basandra, and Depala if you build here right.

It seems like the only way to have an effective Boros deck is to shill out for power cards.

The deck I have for now is Aurelia with a nice colletion of mana rocks, MLD, and a Sunforger package with all the best answers I and find, including the best non-blue counterspells in the game.

I still haven't figured out what to what to do from there. I have a few equipment tutors, but few pieces of equipment other than Sunforger.
I'm also having trouble finding the right amount of creatures to wear said equipment.
>>
> What commander will instantly make someone the supervillain at your table?
The commander of the guy that took the slice of pizza but said he won't want any when we were fucking ordering.
>>
I'm going to do it.

I'm going to build Oona Mill. The idea is really simple; it's really a colourless deck. I just need to do monoblue artifact shenanagians and maybe spash some reanimator for shits and giggles. Doubling cube is going in there with a bunch of untappers like voltic key, dramatic reversal and paradox engine. How many rocks is too many?

I plan on using:
>Mana Crypt
>Sol ring
>Thran Dynamo
>Thought Vessel
>Worn powerstone
>Gilded Lotus
>Sisays ring
>Dimir Signet
>Everflowing Chalice
>Astral Cornicopia

Any black artifacts matter cards I should think about? Phlactary Lich and Cranial Plating look pretty cool, but I can't think of any others worth including. Maybe Marionette Master?
>>

Illusionist's Bracers and Rings of Brighthearth

I always wanted to build an Iroas deck with a bunch of little indestructible creatures and meaningless devotion machines to help him crush everyone at the table.

Can you put less colors on your deck than what your commander's color identity has?

How viable can a Ramos deck but just manaramp and draw X card engines can be?

I want to make it as a subtle simic deck.
>>
anything I should add or cut for this?

http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/scion-and-dads-reanimator-combo/

basic scion reanimator but with new dragon cards added
>>
>>54881423
Yes, there's no rule stating that you have to put red cards in Ramos if you don't want to.
>>
>>54881423
It's pretty common to use a commander just for their colours. More so these days with eminence and Oloro type effects
>>
>>54881108
Here is some inspiration for monoblack Oona: http://www.smileylich.com/mtg/magocracy/visual/Geth_Oona_Sisters_visual.html

This guys runs either monoblack Oona or Geth and it's almost all mana ramp to just pump their ability as much as possible and eat people's decks.

>>54881438

Good to know, what would be a good 5-color commander that would also be a good sultai commander?

>>54881160
Excellent call, strionic resonator, monoblue tezzeret and Planeswalker Teferi are going in there too. Maybe Jin-jan augur man because I'm going to have a fuck ton of mana. I think deadeye could work too for various shenanagians, but I'd really rather not tutor up combo peices.

>>54881488
That was a really cool link, thanks! I don't have a lot of those cards but urborg into coffers is probably really strong. I was going to run high tide in the monoblue version, but that link gave me some neat ideas.
>>
>>54881683
What's the Strionic for?
>>
Fuck the other shop's commander. Combo after combo deck. I fucking jumped through a million hoops, dealt with so many combos and still died to slivers playing their entire deck.

And they insisted that I had a chance when I said my deck wasn't strong enough to beat combo. If they said "gid gud", I'd be better off, but no they insisted my deck was fine and that I put up a good effort.
>>
>>54881615
I don't have a big enough group of like-minded players to play reliably.

>>54881683
Cheers. It's a great resource so I like to share it. His decks are extremely Timmy and often creative.
>>
>>54881956

well that plus strangelhold only wins if the whole board has no enchantment or creature removal in hand when you do it. because they can just untap and kill one of them

whereas MLD has much less counterplay possibility without centralizing the metagame around the same Ux mana rock decks

infect is just plain bad in commander so idk what people are complaining about there

I just got back from a comic shop's commander night and am pissy. There was more going on, but this stood out to me. Someone complaining about Infect and saying they'd never run MLD or Strip Mine someone's Reliquary Tower, but then proceed to tutor for this every turn.

>>54882005
Fair. I did manage to kill Mornsong both times, but Stranglehold was the only thing keeping Hivelord from winning and I was in UR and didn't draw a Chaos Warp or Oblivion Stone.

I guess you're right about MLD.

I just hate that this is the guy who ran fucking Omen in his Locust God deck and he pulls this shit. I can't read people for shit.

>>54882249
Because it's a slope with no reason to stop. Why shouldn't you play Timetwister and Chains of Mephistopheles? Who's stopping you? Throw in all the fetches and shocks. ABUR Duals. Hell, there's no cost for a Black Lotus, make a deck with four. And then you look and realize your deck isn't just something you can never own, it's something you wouldn't WANT to own.

>Why would you want to play something that's balanced around a high equip cost with something that reduces all equip costs to 0 at instant speed?

>>54882526
I think its this and the fact that I want to win with my deck. The one I put together with my limited resources, it's a lot more unique. Games I've won against people with my built decks were far better than the ones that had Imperial Seal and all kind of other wacky shit
>>
>>54882249

There is little point to owning an illegal deck and Chains of Mephistopheles isn't played in any format. It's expensive due to rarity and history.

If you had to recommend one of the C17 decks to a fairly new player, which would you choose?

Vampires or Cats

Vamps out of the box.
>>
>>54882769
Cats. There's a lot of interesting one-off mechanics that can help teach stack sequencing, triggers and proper play order, and Arahbo helps get them familiar with the combat step and using instant-speed abilities. The other commanders are all good choices for taking the base in multiple directions, too.

Get you some buff ass Vampires
>>
Scion of the Ur, or the big daddy Ur Dragon himself?
>>
>>54883566
Every card you waste earning life to cast her cheaper is a card you could have used to give her evasion, haste or protection.
Even if you do manage to get her out on turn 3, you'll still have spent most of your hand in the process.

Just imagine spending all those resources to get her out on turn 3, and then paying 10 life to buff her, only to have be Plowshared once you finally get the chance to attack. You'll start turn 5 with less than nothing.

And if you don't get her out quickly then you won't be able to build up her counters. The game will have already been determined by the time she becomes a big threat.

Karlov is by far the superior voltron/lifegain commander. You don't have to pay 5 life to buff him, he's only 2cmc, and he has added removal utility on top of that.
If you try to build Licia as a voltron commander then you'll be pulled in two different directions that don't have much synergy.

I might work at the head of a go-big goodstuff lifegain deck.
>Divinity of Pride
>Wurmcoil Engine
>Celestial Mantle
Etc
Though I'm not really sure what red brings to that list.

If only Licia reduced the casting cost of all creatures.
As she is, the only reason people want to play her is because of her great art. If she had shittier art nobody would care about her.
>>
>>54883860
I think they will never make a more powerful 5 color Dragon commander than Scion. Having access to your entire deck at instant speed for 2 generic means you almost always win immediately with him.

That said, go with the Ur-Dragon. He's a fuckload more fun and every one of your games won't play exactly the same, unlike Scion.

No?
Non-english versions of cards are legal in all formats, provided the card itself is legal to it.

If theres a dispute/question about rules or interaction, pull out a phone for translatio or get a judge.

Monogreen with Kamahl, fist of krosa lets you play politics by animating enemy lands. Good for deterring any board wipes. Edric may also be worth looking into if you don't go all in with time walks. He works well with cheap evasive creatures and really pushes the political aspect.

Play something that encourages interaction. No shit you get bored when all you every game do is fetch the same combo over and over.

>>54884011
>Edric, Spymaster of Trest
Requires only 1cmc evasive creatures

>Talrand, Sky Summoner
Cantrips and counterspells

>Borborygmos Enraged
99 lands

>Rafiq of the Many
Exalted tribal

>Krenko, Mob Boss
Goblin tribal

>Selvala, Explorer Returned
Anything you want

>Brago, King Eternal
ETB triggers

>Uril, the Miststalker
Enchantress voltron

>Grenzo, Havoc Raiser
Tokens and chaos

>Zada, Hedron Grinder
Tokens and crazy cantrip shenanigans

>Sram, Senior Artificer
Voltron with 0cmc equipment

You can built viable decks on a budget with these commanders.
Edric and Uril in particular can be respectably strong yet extremely cheap, but they have very linear play styles.

The worst part about edhrec is the manabase.
I can't tell if Kaalia actually wants bouncelands, or just 38 percent of the decks use them because there's so many people who didn't upgrade the precon and made lists with them.

Bouncelands are casual staples, with emphasis on casual. Kaalia has to go fast and hard since she's the biggest target on the table, so if you want to win fast and hard you don't want a land entering tapped, bounceland or otherwise.

That is incorrect. When a player leaves the game, any permanents that entered the battlefield under their control that they don't own are exiled. You'd only get it back if you donated it or they gained control of it from you.

Since the judge thread is down at the moment, I have a small dumb question about Varchild's War-Riders and its cumulative upkeep ability - the oracle text says "Have an opponent create a 1/1 red Survivor creature token"; does this mean that the ability isn't targeted and thus I can give tokens to the Leyline of Sanctity guy on the table?

I'm saying that Cloven Casting is a gold card and triggers Ramos for two counters and is thus a sensible choice in a Ramos deck.

I just like Cloven Casting and am not letting the almost certainly better card get me down. You can Reborn Hope it. And it triggers Pyroconvergence.

I can even play my my Yidris and Sen Triplets decks anymore because my table just hates me out. Chris has a silver deck that people finally realized needs to die first (seriously fuck you Chris you fucking faggot). There is also a Jhoira MLD deck that one of the guys runs which is an instant kill.

It is actually really fun to put all these decks against each other though, makes for interesting games when we all play the meanest deck we got.

Because of its incredible versatility and built in politics. Let's say someone gets out Basalt Monolith and tries to resolve a Rings or a Power Artifact, tapping out to do so. Now, this is a win all but guaranteed, and with a card like Swan Song you would be able to stop it. But with Chain of Vapor, you can instead, look around the board. Is there another potential threat? Well target that person. Assuming the game hasn't gone on too long and they still want to win they'll need to copy it to avoid losing. For one mana and maybe a land you can take out multiple threats. And the fact that you can do silly things like toss down a Helm of Awakening, a hand full of net positive rocks, and then Chain of Vapor to make even more mana is just icing.

In my playgroup, bolt is very often maligned as 'an awesome card that's unfortunately bad in commander'. I never run it, but good onya for making it work!

I have a soft spot for weird artifacts that have really cool interactions with stuff. That card pushes all my buttons in all the right ways.

The pros of having a stable playgroup.

Also, once in a blue moon you can use chain to bounce half your shit in case for a total bord wipe so you recover faster than everyone else.

Something tells me your favorite color may be green. Bonus points for Deranged Hermit. I don't personally like squirrels, but I understand that they're patrician taste.

My absolute fave green card is K-Grip. Split-Second isn't 100% reliable, but it's close enough.

I've been trying to limit the amount of counterspells in my decks lately both as a challenge and as a part of a gentlemanly agreement among my playgroup. If I only was able to choose 1 counterspell to use, this would be it. It's the tactical nuke, the swiss-army knife, the things this spell can't stop are few and far between.

Uncounterable spells: check

Activated/Triggered Abilities: Check

Combat: Check

Drawing a Card During the Draw Step: Check

Someone's Entire Goddamned Turn: Check

I even love the red cousin despite (and because of) the drawback.

So I am putting together a Kamah the fist deck, and while I have a bunch of parts being shipped in I don't exactly know what all I will wind up using. The main focus is killing everyone elses lands eith pingers and shit. After that I want to win with either buffing up my lands to swarm opponents to death, infect (not likely) or using all my lands to summon big ass creatures. Oh, and would you say 50 lands is too many?

I've seen people put Conjurer's Closet into Sedris decks, but I don't get why that interaction lets you keep the creatures you unearth
The unearth text says ' If it would leave the battlefield, exile it instead of putting it anywhere else', and I don't understand the interaction between this and Conjurer's Closet's exile trigger

Can someone explain it to me?
>>
>>54889251
If you plan on using it in casual then just make your own.
Unless there's total spergs at your table no one should mind a proxy or two.
If you want to use it competitvely then you're garbage.
>>
>>54889258
Maybe it's just to double on ETB triggers if you ever need to cast the critters you plan on unearth later.

>>54889222
Thunder can't catch both an artifact and enchantment on a single cast. The damage is great on late game tho'

because that one sperg that lurks these threads, noone will tell you directly to the vendors. search reddit for answers.

that's what I originally thought too, but I've seen claims in a couple primers that Conjurer's Closet and Deadeye Navigator let you keep unearthed creatures, and that they're better than Sundial for that purpose
I'm currently using Sundial in my deck, but if it works with Conjurer's that's probably better, or at least worth adding along side

Not tat guy, but:

There's nothing wrong with a group of players coming together and agreeing as a group to avoid using effects that they all find contribute to a negative play experience. If everyone in a game is OK with seeing excessive mass LD, an abundance of targeted LD, large amounts of counterspells, gratuitous extra turns, fast combos, etc. that's cool. I'd rather not, and the people I play with feel the same. If you think otherwise, that's cool too. I just think players should be aware of what they're walking into and what to expect when they sit down for a game. Live and let live, man.

No, no, you've misunderstood. He was complaining about the guy playing Marelen and Stranglehold as the degenerate shit, and saying "this is the same guy who plays strictly worse ponder" for contrast.

Here's how that'd go down:
>gain any amount of life
>Meditation triggers, pay the 2
>deals 2 damage, you gain 2 life
>repeat steps 2 and 3 until everyone is dead
Which is why you'd need the infinite mana. Lifelink affects all damage dealt IIRC.

It does. It's how Sydri AetherSucc works if they don't scoop.

Its to prevent a situation where you have no legal targets to pay the upkeep. Your opponents play shouldnt affect your choice that much.
