Re: Recent Game Knights Episode (spoilers) and Commander Play Styles
Can you elaborate? I'm really intereste in the idea but I feel I'm not goood enough of a player/deckbuilder to go trough with the idea. If you plop your deck into one of the deck tags here, or put it on tappedout/deckbox/etc. you will get some numbers. I really like the charts here because they do ...

Re: Recent Game Knights Episode (spoilers) and Commander Play Styles
Somewhat of a tangent: A thing I learned (that kinda surprised me) when doing that deck analysis project is that average CMC is by far the #1 indicator of what a deck is going to do. Nothing correlated more directly with power level than average CMC. There were goofy exceptions like the high CMC tr...

Expression Rehearsal great card. Wont be a power house but real, real solid. Will see a ton of play for me Archmage Emeritus I kinda like it for lower power EDH tables. Ive played Teferi's Ageless Insight before and it works. It will be fun in weaker tables Efreet Flamepainter same. It lacks the im...

Apart from the 3 free spells every card in this deck is 3cmc or more, have you considered Keruga, the Macrosage as a partner?

Re: Averna, Unexpected Cascaaaaade [brewing]
I'm not 100% sure about how it all worksbut Expansion // Explosion would be burned a bunch, wouldnt it? cascading into it might be bad because you won't get to to copy the spell nor pay the X right? I'm also curious about how it would play out early I undesrtand that after you start cascading you wi...

Re: Kess, Dissident Mage - Control
Kess is definitely a deck you need to try out as much as possible to see what has success in your group. Here a few ideas of cards that have worked their way into my deck... In the late game you might find Mystic Sanctuary helpful. Volcanic Vision costs seven, but it's likely a one-sided board wipe...

Re: Kess, Dissident Mage - Control
I'll also recommend Rakdos Charm (both Shatter and grave hate are useful) and Sire of Insanity (because you can just play out of your graveyard). I'm not a big fan of Anger of the Gods and Sweltering Suns , but that's ultimately a meta call depending on how relevant small creatures are in your meta...

I'm not going to say I'm new to the format but I'm not experienced either. and when it comes to control I've encountered a challenge in building a consistent deck My g...

Re: Prava // Sakashima - Azorius Token Butts
Shark Typhoon is on the high cmc side but turning everyspell you sling into tokens is great, with built in evasion even. good call on Mirrorweave. it goes NUTS with Monastery Mentor Since you are going very wide I imagine Lazotep Plating isnt that good, the indestructable package is great and I'd t...

How to build and play control decks in EDH.
I think I've come to a point in my magic life that I enjoy building much more than I enjoy playing. It's such a fun activity. so I spend a bunch of time brewing decks, and have built a ton some more succesful than others, but control? I just don't know how to. I wanna build a Kess, Dissident Mage no...

Re: Best starter box for the Commander Challenge?
I think it has to be Dominaria.
Lets pretend you don't get a multicolored one on other sets, in that scenario you would end up running bad artifcats and extra basics just to hit the 99

There are literally over a dozen "magic school" based media that are both better and older than the Harry Potter franchise, so it's not like they don't have options. Lol. And I'm sure Hasbro would rather have access to 10% of harry potter IP than all others combined. It's not an argument ...
