Re: [Off-Topic] Community Chat Thread

So a friend of mine got Mindslaver|97665 and Esoteric Duplicator in their sealed pool and managed to Mindslaver lock an opponent for the win.

What are you talking about? They are entirely different. One extends the game and one ends the game! /s Mostly complaining. In a game this week, the guy who started the game, on his turn 3, he Jokulhaups to wipe everyone's board except his since he has his commander, Daretti, Scrap Savant out, and ...

I am just putting it out there, but if you Jokulhaups on turn 3, you don't get to complain when I win the game on turn 5.

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion

As for the new cards, Honest Rutstein seems like a slam dunk in my Henzie "Toolbox" Torre to replace Chainer, Nightmare Adept (who honestly doesn't pull his weight most of the time). Returning a creature to my hand plus cost reduction is great. Really? I find that I'm always happy to see ...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion

As a fan of the Wild West setting and westerns of all kinds in general (Trigun was my jam back in the day), I have to say I am really enjoying what I am seeing so far. My only complaint is that I wish it wasn't so villain focused and was more Wild West focused. As for the new cards, Honest Rutstein ...

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Animal Friend

I've been playing around with a Kodama of the West Tree deck for a while (my main problem is figuring out the mix of themes), but this is a card that seems tailored made for it since throw it on something like Timber Paladin or Kami of Transience and swing hopefully getting a modified creature.

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Verdant Command

I love Verdant Command and think it is very underrated. The fallback is a Raise the Alarm with 3 life attached, which is a pretty good fallback. But the highpoints on this card are amazing and can be literally game winning. I've used it to stop an PW ultimate and get rid of a key card in the graveya...

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Grave-Shell Scarab

One of my favorite stories with this card is back when it was previewed. Almost everyone thought this was going to be the strongest dredge creature and chase rare of the set because it could draw a card and only had Dredge 1. Nobody realized just how powerful those high dredge numbers were going to ...

Re: [Off-Topic] Community Chat Thread

Last night reminded me why I enjoy playing EDH. For the past maybe half a year I haven't been enjoying commander as much as I used to. Like I would have fun, but often I would get home and be like I probably would've enjoyed watching a movie more. And I couldn't really figure it out until last night...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion

I do agree that green would help, but mostly because it would give you more cheap creatures with high power. Mono white isn't THAT bad, and Aradesh solves White's biggest problem which is card draw. If we had like twice the available <5 MV and >4 power creatures, I really think it would turn out fi...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion

All I am asking for is a fun RW Teddy Roosevelt card with Indestructible that encourages attacking. But yeah, I will say that I agree with RxPhantom in that outside of the Warhammer decks, which were some of the best designed precons of all time, I've been pretty meh on UB (though part of that might...

Considering Airplane! is my favorite movie of all time (and the one I've seen the most), ZAZ (the writers and directors of Airplane!) have a very unique style of comedy in that it is rapid fire, dense, smart, sometimes subtle, and is treated seriously. Airplane! is their comedy style in its purest f...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion

I've noticed wotc putting a lot of attack triggers on commanders that probably shouldn't be attacking - like a 4/4 for 5 with no relevant combat abilities. Wonder if that's an intentional design decision. Wild guess, it could have something to do with encouraging newer players to attack? That way p...

Re: Secret Lair "Sheldon's Spellbook"

I will say, I have seen a Giant tribal Ruhan deck once that looked like a lot of fun. And he is the right colors for it. So while not as popular as Hinata, Dawn-Crowned , I do think he is a fun, if a bit niche commander, which is better than fine. It's the type of commander that the format is all a...

Re: Secret Lair "Sheldon's Spellbook"

@Guardman It makes perfect sense that Ruhan would be chosen for the collection given that it helmed his favorite deck for a decade - I'm just expressing my disappointment that his decision to never update the commander to something more compelling has inevitably resulted in his signature card being...

Per Good Morning Magic, Sheldon chose Ruhan of the Fomori and Inkshield personally. The reasoning can be found in the video below.
