Re: Why is everyone in cEDH keep calling about 'ban' Flash thing?
I feel like you're misunderstanding my point. Obviously, I'm not goinna say these cards are more powerful than Flash or would see play at the average table. Maybe I'm underestimating how much the silent majority in the EDH community plays Flash fairly, but from my view, it's most commonly played to...

Re: Unusual tribal decks
Bird tribal with Kangee, Aerie Keeper was fun at the time, maybe Derevi, Empyrial Tactician would be a better general now.
RG Hydra Tribal with Rosheen Meanderer was also nice, although Gargos, Vicious Watcher offers now a better, more flavorful option (but you lose red in the process)

Re: Let's rank ALL the fixing lands
Interesting ranking. My only problem is that the fetches are influencing it just by their very existence. If someone doesn't have access to them, they can't just ignore them and keep the rest of the ranking as is. I feel like the BBD Duals, Pains and Filters are the go-to option if you don't have ac...

Re: Why is everyone in cEDH keep calling about 'ban' Flash thing?
My issue is that most uses of Flash outside of cEDH wouldn't fly at the average table. At my LGS (which is more of a 6-8 out of 10 meta than a 4-6), we have someone who Flash Hulks to cheat out a Turn 2 Etali. He could easily replace that with a Ruric Thar or a Consecrated Sphinx for more degenerac...

Re: Automated Commander Power Level Evaluation
Well, I don't understand everything but keep up the good work, man!
If you need more lists, here's a mono-red tribal dragon and an atraxa +1/+1 counters synergy, maybe it might help spotting new synergies?

Re: Automated Commander Power Level Evaluation
I don't how pertinent it will be, but here's my random Golos deck. There is no big synergy as this is a theme deck more than anything else. But there is still is some "micro" synergy in the sense of tokens + stuff like Capricious Efreet or Jalira, Master Polymorphist . Golos_Erratic_Pilgri...

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Deadeye Tracker
I'm only using it in my Golos deck, as this is the only gravehate effect with a random element stapled onto it. It's ... okay? If not for deckbuilding restrictions, I would play one of the myriad of other gravehate effects black has to offer. It's slow, the counters don't really matter without evasi...

Re: First, Hit Your Land Drops (draft essay)
Yeah, I tend to favor hitting land drops more than ramp in any deck that intends to run the long game anyway. In those decks, there's no need to rush, you just need regularity. On top of the white goodies already mentioned, I'd also like to mention Thaumatic Compass and Journeyer's Kite for reactive...

Re: Power creep in the command zone - interesting article
To quote Sheldon, "The secret of this format is in not breaking it." It seems like most of you play in slightly toxic metas. EDH is meant as a social experience. If you want to break it, you will be able to. There's no real efficient way to prevent it and it has been like that since the be...

Re: A Take on Titan - No Escape from 12-Rack (Kroxa, Titan of Death's Hunger)
Thank you for your reports! Looks like the deck was fun
For card draw, Erebos, God of the Dead and Greed can be considered but they cost 4 and you might want to play Kroxa on turn 4. I would suggest Phyrexian Arena, Read the Bones and/or Grim Haruspex.

I would either go WBR with Queen Marchesa or WUB with Oloro, Ageless Ascetic as your commander. Blue and Red have some options to force creatures to attack like Siren's Call . Blue can also deflect attacks with cards like Illusionist's Gambit . There's also the classic Propaganda . Depending on the ...

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Armoury Automaton
About Mulch, I actually really like its new little brother Winding Way. It can give you lands early game to ensure land drops, and it can give you creatures late game to refuel your hand. Also synergies really well with graveyard strategies. I'm rarely disappointed to draw it.

Are you sure about the exclusive cards in Theros collector packs? I don't remember any. If you're talking about the cards that don't appear in classic draft boosters, they can appear in either Planeswalker Decks or Theme Boosters (and of course the Buy-a-Box promo).

I will test the deck again on friday next week and hopefully a new addition to this deck will arrive in time: Noetic Scales .

Well if they don't have any other creature, Sheoldred, Whispering One or any other similar effect might do the trick. You can also use trigger abilities from cycling such as Nimble Obstructionist to counter the Spellbinder trigger. Peacekeeper can prevent Dromoka from attacking. Really, this is just...
