Kels, Zombie Cult: Feasible?
When I saw Kels, Fight Fixer , I knew I wanted to build a deck for her. I have a really bad habit of wanting to build decks simply because of the art, and this is no exception. Sometimes, it has turned out well. My Kynaios and Tiro of Meletis deck is one of my absolute favorites, gets all the shinie...

Re: [JMP] Tree-hugging deck lists
I am sorry if this is not a good place to post this, but I think I am out of the loop here. What is Jumpstart? It is releasing literally two weeks after M21? It is listed as a "reprint set" here, but I know that I have never seen those legends before. What kind of set is it? Is it a draft ...

Re: Is Oathbreaker Already a Dead Format?
I don't know what busted things go on in this format, but I read See the Truth and thought of this. Thank you for pointing this out! My playgroup still plays Oathbreaker, admittedly less often than Commander, but it is fun for those little decks that I just wasn't satisfied with in Commander. ( Arl...

Re: What have you done with Kenrith?
I built him as the five-color gods deck I kept trying to find a general for. It is an excuse for running all my favorite lands, and Kenrith plugs any holes a given hand of gods might have.

Re: Custom Partners
Well, really the only custom partner pair I'd like to see is Bruna, the Fading Light and Gisela, the Broken Blade because they really ought to be usable as partners.
Re: Big red
If you were going for Gruul, what about Wort, the Raidmother? She will give extra benefit from those big X spells and add green ramp for your red.

Re: Proxies in Commander
In my playgroup, proxies are only used for a card that is being playtested and/or on order (for not-yet-released cards). That's it. No one, not even the teenagers in our meta, uses proxies. We consider it a collectible game as well as card game... Playing against proxies irritates me no end, but tha...

Swapping Arcane Signet for Sol Ring is the best idea I've heard in ages.Dragonlover wrote: ↑4 years agoI'll nth the fact we need foils of the cards that are so far precon only in some way.
Also either more Brawl decks going forward or swap Arcane Signet for Sol Ring next year.

Re: Headed for Seattle
Have a good time there! Please don't give the format to WotC. I've really enjoyed the custodianship of the RC. I don't care about tuck or banned-as-commander or most of the bans one way or the other. But I beg and plead that Sylvan Primordial and Primeval Titan stay banned. I would love to see more ...

Re: Five-Color Elves
Well, there are not exactly any mono-blue or red Elves, but plenty of Simic Elves, with the odd Gruul one. The motivation is ... getting really bored of mono-G Elves. I like Elves, but I got tired of either having Ezuri as the general or asking myself why he wasn't the general. :( I'm liking some of...

Five-Color Elves
I have always loved Elf decks, and I have built and disassembled and rebuilt them so many times. I've had Abzan, Simic, mono-G, Sultai, Selesnya, and so forth. But they never really stuck around, probably because it kind of felt like it should always be Ezuri, Renegade Leader , even if it wasn't. Bu...

Re: Anje Falkenrath - Vampires from the Crypt
I loved the write-up. In fact, I have an Edgar deck (which is in danger of being replaced with Anje), and my own Anje is dragon tribal mass reanimation, so I found some the tech here useful. But I simply loved reading about the vampire madness build so much that ... I might even consider building it...

Though I do not currently have my Lili deck put together, I have built (and disassembled and rebuilt) an Origins Lili deck several times.
