I was just a lurker at Sally's, so Nexus is my real MTG internet family. Sally is just a weird uncle that I somewhat remember, but don't have any real connection to.

So yeah. It's nice to be here with all of you.

Never seen a wrestling match, but found an excellent comic about it. Do a powerbomb is easily the best and most fun comic I read all year. The author just got into wrestling and created a loveletter to it.

You could go with Byode, Inverse Sun as your commander. Not a legal card but one of those Heroes of the Realm ones.

Not exactly crafted but our group plays a lot of Conspiracy and we have an old beat up fabric crown that the monarch must wear at all times. It started out as a Burger King crown but was eventually upgraded by one of the player's daughters. I'll take a picture if we get together next week. Sounds f...

Do you mind shating a pic? This sounds like it looks awesome.

It's unlikely I'm going to shell out for OG fetches or a P3K Seal, but here is what it looks like.

Understandable. I really like the idea. Reanimator always has some kind of olschool flavour for me.

I don't run the same artwork in a deck, nostly I go with what I have at home. Braids will be the first deck, where I look for special basics. My first idea was the Nyx ones, but there are so many beautiful full-art swamps that I will run one of each. Other than that: I want the basics to support the...

Do you craft anything for your games? I make my own tokens. I create them in MSE2 and print them on Avery Business card stock, so they are half-size of regular cards. Sometimes it's official art, sometimes pop-culture art references. Examples: Token_Example.jpg Token_Example_PC.jpg They look really...

You are telling me that there is a deck, where I can play my old favourite Mossbridge Troll and it's actually great? Whoa!

Jokes aside, this deck looks fantastic, thanks for the primer and all the insides! Is there a budget decklist?

I did an overhaul of my tracker. Now it can not only track treasures, clues, and food but all kinds of stuff like enchantments (for Yenna, Redtooth Regent ), spells (for Ghyrson Starn, Kelermorph ), or mana (for Selvala, Explorer Returned and ( Braids, Arisen Nightmare ). Next up: a throne for my Qu...

Moving onto new card discussion, the more I think about it, the more I am certain Demand Answers is going to be a chase common of the set in the same vein as Reckless Impulse is. Most red decks have artifacts to sacrifice and I see a lot of mono red and boros decks playing a lot more card selection...

How do we feel about Burglar Rat , Elderfang Disciple , Nezumi Informant , and maybe Elvish Doomsayer or Virus Beetle ? It wouldn't be mono-black without discard, and these give us some more early game fodder to maximize on a turn 3 Braids. Neat idea. Hopeless Nightmare is another option. If you wa...

Any reason why I'm not seeing Jadar, Ghoulcaller of Nephalia ? Based on how I understand the card, you should be able to stack the beginning of end step triggers so that he makes the zombie for you to sacrifice to Braids. Seems great to curve into Braids too. Yep, this should work as intended. Drea...

There was a whole cycle of 8-drops in Shards of Alara! I remeber some cool games with Empyrial Archangel and Prince of Thralls. Hellkite Overlord was a big beater at least, but Sphinx Sovereign has always been a bad card. These creatures have some if the most badass names in the game, though! Alara...

Wednesday, December 13th, 2023; Godsire Godsire I can't believe the token is worth more than the card. Such a cool card though I remember grabbing this with Tooth and Nail back in the day. Card is flippin cool. Gets my inner timmy real happy. It's pretty bad though. I don't think I've ever seen one...

Understandable. Lili is a fun and flexible card.

I'm not to sure about Liliana of the Dark Realms. Imo she often underperforms. Her + just gets a Swamp to your hand, her - kills her, and her ultimate takes 4 turns.
Noxious Gearhulk looks weaker than your other cards in that slot. 6 mananis a lot for a kill spell on a dude, too.

Braids, Arisen Nightmare - This is inspired by @cheonice's thread. It'll be similar to TheGildedGoose's version where you maximize the chance of a great Turn 2-3 Braids trigger to get a surge of cards early to power the trigger later on to draw through the deck and eventually assemble the pieces wh...

What do you think of Ugin's Nexus ? Should be extra turn + draw for 5, right? I had some success with it in Daretti back in the days. It sometimes felt a bit clunky, though. On the other hand MBC is probably a great place formit with all the mana we usually generate. And with the tagged on card dra...

Triple damage sounds better than double damage. So Gratuitous Violence is replaced by City on Fire. Tripling Purphys power makes him a one-hit commander, too! So yeah, Timmy is excited!

I opened Tishana's Tidebinder with the gorgeous alternate artwork! So naturally I needed to find a place for it.
Overcharged Amalgam underperformed several times due to the sacrifice clause, so it needs to go.

Any reason you skipped Sol Ring ? Be the change you wish to see in the world. :grin: This is the decklist I came up with. I focussed more on late game ramp and added a few more synergy pieces. [br] //Commander 1 Braids, Arisen Nightmare //Lands 1 Witch's Cottage 1 Myriad Landscape 1 Barren Moor 1 B...

Thank you so much! That's a great inspiration.
Any reason you skipped Sol Ring ?
Nyx Lotus [/card] could be another lategame ramp. But it looks like it only works, if we are allready ahead.

I'm working on a new decklist I hope to post this week.

Your list looks great. How much does your playgroup hate you for playing Pox? I'm hestitant to go down that rabbit hole, because it dies not sound like a fun game for everyone else. How did this work for you? I like your inclusion of weird old cards like [card]Sarcomancy[card]. Nice find! How do the...
