Re: Having Your Voice Heard
I suppose I only have one real request: please provide an up-to-date, easy-to-access rationale for each card on the banlist. I don't see how this lands on anything but a nit-pick-fest about whats banned, why its banned, and why X that 'clearly meets those requirements' isn't banned. Fair point. I w...

Re: Having Your Voice Heard
[mention]Sheldon[/mention] For what it's worth, I think the RC is doing the best they can despite the inherent limitations of four (five?) people managing a format played by thousands. I suppose I only have one real request: please provide an up-to-date, easy-to-access rationale for each card on the...

Re: [Announcement] Ban List Update
Flash is very popular in cEDH, and generally never used in normal EDH. I play it in Lord of Tresserhorn . The deck revolves around creatures' death triggers. The coolest play thus far has been using Flash put out and sac Keiga, the Tide Star , and stealing a Blightsteel Colossus that was heading st...

Re: Having Your Voice Heard
Flash I honestly can't think of a single fair use for the card. And it shouldn't be that hard to hear the cEDH crowd, look at EDHRec, see how often the card is played in non-cEDH situations and come to a pretty good conclusion to whether or not the ban would affect the "core demographic" ...

Re: Changing Commanders
I think I've only done this once, and it was Gisa and Geralf for Grimgrin, Corpse-Born. Grimgrin's still in the deck, though.

Re: Having Your Voice Heard
It's not ok for Sheldon to have had the experience of a death threat over the weekend, and I certainly hope it never happens again to him, or anyone else in our community. Holy smokes! He got a death threat?! I definitely missed that. That's positively insane. What does it say about our community w...

Re: Having Your Voice Heard
I've been saying this for years, but it bears repeating: The format has outgrown the RC's ability to manage it. They do the best they can, but this CAG doesn't feel too consequential, and they have no data to go on. They have to make sense of thousands of players' opinions, and I'm sure it dissolves...

Re: [Announcement] Ban List Update
I managed to sneak in this morning before my LGS opened. Traded Paradox Engine for $42 store credit before the price plummets. I feel a bit stink about it, but there's also stuff I want, so... Are we supposed to support you on this? Sure, it behooves an LGS to keep up with this kind of thing, but i...

Promoting Nexus?
The only way I knew the site was active was someone's offhand comment on Salvation. I'm curious if Sally's new owners prohibited the mods from discussing or promoting Nexus. Also, what's the macro plan for getting the word out?

Re: [Off-Topic] Community Chat Thread
Hey all, I'm RxPhantom. Real name is Aaron. I live in Maryland with my wife, daughter, and dog. I've been playing since Ice Age, but I've taken long breaks from the game. I got back into MtG in 2011, just in time for New Phyrexia and M12. I discovered EDH/Commander soon after, and it's largely resp...

Do you ever use green signets?
Boros Signet Simic Signet Most of us are aware of the signets, but with this being a new site that may attract newer players, I'll give a quick rundown. Signets are a ten-card cycle of artifacts that include the two pictured above. There is one for each color pair. Anyway, I have a simple question:...
