Tranquil Grove In casual people aren't so concerned with Auras being potential card disadvantage from my experience, so the number of enchantments is somewhat higher then anywhere else. But still, how often you will need repeated mass enchantment destruction that is also telegraphed? It's one of th...

Recently I've been considering cutting out Ashnod's Altar out of one of my decks and replacing it with Viscera Seer . Since I'm playing Dimir reanimator Seer is much easier to get out of the bin than a artifact. But I can also do a infinite combo with Desolation Twin after creating infinite mana wit...

Tried looking for a discussion thread on it and I couldn't find one, and I don't use discord anymore nor do I want to use reddit. As for myself I've been working on a old school deck online and been refining it for the past two months. It's a budget build but I tried my best with it. https://tappedo...

Usually how I do deckbuilding is first figuring out all of the cards that I'll use to build around it The second part is ramp. I typically play black so I run mana rocks, Terrain Generator , or Black Market . And stuff like that. Third part is the fun part. I always sprinkle in a bit of stacks effec...

Okay, I'm going to assume jank is being used as cards that don't have to do with synergies or direct interaction, and do their own odd little thing. I like putting jank that not only shut down certain strategies, but also makes the game wacky and crazy. The best one that comes to mind is the Bubble ...

For me it's much cheaper to just buy singles, and overall more worth it. With the exception being me cracking a pack once from a commander tournament and getting a Grave Pact from Wilds of Eldraine. And I also do it when I go to prereleases, but for the past few weeks I've been wondering if it's eve...

I'm sure I'm making the same points that others have in the thread, but another positive side is that it makes EDH more accessible. But again it's become a competitive format with power creep. Seriously, I wonder what bandwagon Wotc will jump on in an effort to make a few cheap dollars. And I'm not ...

What are you goals? If your goal is to have a fun sealed experience, then I think prerelease is great. I try to think of it mostly as paying for the event, and then the cards are just a bonus. Sealed (and draft) are really fun imo and I'd always recommend people giving them a try. It is unfortunate...

Since the reprints in some of the commander precons are so good, should I just have up my money to get a precon or should I go to the prerelease? I've been to two in a row and it's been underwhelming. The only card I really liked from the both of em is Spiteful Hexmage, from the WOE prerelease. Plus...

I generally try my best to steer clear from cards that are ten dollars or more, and try to find cheaper versions that do the same but are different way to achieve it For example, I'm debating if I should buy Bitter Ordeal for an infinite combo or look for a cheaper version, since manabox says that i...

The Dimir precon has me very willing to buy the 40 dollar precon instead of going to the prerelease for the very first time. Looks like I don't have to get a discount Rise of the Dark Realm by getting Grimore of The Dead. It's full of fantastic old cards that have been way out of my price range. I'm...

I know the more obvious lich cards, but I'm not sure how to build around it. I just know I want it to be high risk high reward with lich in mind. I don't know as many cards in that field as others do.

The thing is with tutors is that it's about what power level you want to be at. With tutors, your fetching combo pieces and board wipes, or at least investing into the future. Without tutors, I would assume, either stem from just wanting to keep things fresh, or to keep the game casual. Back to the ...

I spend a good amount thinking and playing magic, pretty much every day. A good shot in the dark in terms of hours would probably be 10-15 hours a week. I watch YouTube channels like command zone, watch their commander gameplay stuff and watch their podcast. I also play magic with my friend, but rec...

I've never liked universes beyond stuff, since it's just a predatory way to get new players and make more money. But I wouldent really say that any universes beyond stuff has failed, since it always achieves its goal to make as much money as humanly possible. I played with the dalek precon thing a c...
