Elven Chorus gives even your non-changelings the mana ability, and provides some card advantage, but without the bodies.

Elven Chorus doesn't allow me to say an additional creature type whenever I cast a Changeling / when a changeling is on the battlefield so it's unplayable here.

In other news, Path of Annihilation seems bonkers in my Changeling deck. Not excited for how pushed this set is. Omo, Queen of Vesuva deck hasn't been previewed yet right? I'm going to get slammed with playables from that I assume.

Path of Annihilation seems really good. Turning changelings into Birds of Paradise is one of the best abilities early game. Slapping that ability on an enchantment is great and it comes with two bodies? Sign me up. Also, it randomly gains a little life off The Ur-Dragon / Morophon, the Boundless wh...

@darrenhabib I'm having trouble thinking of what cards Mami should have to represent episodes 1&2. Did you have any ideas? I was thinking maybe Mentor of the Meek and Kogla, the Titan Ape because she is a mentor figure and does a lot of fighting. But, I feel like I can do better at the same time.

This card has the word "dredge" on it. Pretty sure it's played.

It seems like there are some ridiculous includes hinted at in MH3 for this deck. Omo, Queen of Vesuva https://i.redd.it/deklbusazs1d1.png 2[sym=gu] - Legendary Shapeshifter Noble - 1/5 Whenever Omo, Queen of Vesuva enters the battlefield or attacks, put an everything counter on each of up to one ta...

To be fair, without a large amount of tutors your deck is going to play fairly different from game to game. Feeling the impact of one card change to another is going to be somewhat rare since your deck is so large unless the card improvement is massive.

With a few exceptions, I think you could treat them as two separate cards and just pick the one you want to play as your commander and ignore the other. Definitely true of Cosima. You could build around the front side and then you'd simply ignore the back side during play. Or you could build around...

I hate the design of basically all the Kaldheim gods. In theory they sound cool. In practice, they all feel like I have to read two books before the game even starts. Then, I have to guess which book is actually relevant. None of them feel worth the effort it takes to read them. I get exhausted just...

Saturday, May 18th 2024; Black Market Connections Black Market Connections Is this really the best? Sure getting a Carnival of Souls trigger is good and two life for a card is an okay rate but you can't just bolt yourself every turn for a lotus petal + cantrip. I'd argue a Lotho, Corrupt Shirriff +...

I have a friend who has an attractions deck. It's finicky because he's basically the only one who knows the rules behind it but it's otherwise extremely fine. They made all these cards the opposite of pushed. If they'd just said "acorns are only legal in commander and no other format" I'd ...

Finished cards so far. Anguished Unmaking Burning Wish Cruel Reality Desolation Angel Elder Deep Fiend Gilded Drake Gisela, Blade of Goldnight Liliana Vess Mass Manipulation Sol Ring Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre Wish I'm very much enjoying the process of making these and I'm super hyped to show them al...

Speaking of random meetups. Anyone going to GenCon this year? I'll probably be there some.

I feel like my internet credibility might have taken at hit from the absolute shlocking I got. Maybe not. No way, commander is just too big of a random factor to make any assumptions like that. :) I'm having a fun time going over the games in my head. I'm pretty sure The Ur-Dragon should statistica...

First of all @materpillar it was awesome hanging with you, thanks for makin the drive! I really enjoyed getting to see some decks I've followed for years in person. It was great! I'll try to swing by again sometime but I rarely have Fridays free. I feel like my internet credibility might have taken...

Just met up with pokken at his local LGS. It's the first time I've played at a LGS with randos in a long time. My first impression is holy %$#% cards released in the last 3-4 years are absurd. Games are hella fast now. Secondly, I'm now very much on team ban Sol Ring . We played 6 games (!) in 4.5 h...

I almost died last weekend. Had an experienced/rusty student getting back in the saddle. After a few passes, managed to get a good approach. Touched down fine. Told him to put the power back in for a touch and go...and he applied no rudder (or maybe the wrong rudder considering how quickly things w...

How budget are we going? "5c g " is typically the de facto response to this style of question. Top of my head, I might lean; Cmd Twr Exotic Orchard Path of Ancestry Grand Coliseum (city of brass is like $15 for...reasons) Reflecting Pool is pretty cheap pending version This is a pretty al...

I used to have Jaya Ballard, Task Mage and Lovisa Coldeyes decks that were completely different. Off the top of my head I could have easily had goblins and artifacts decks with minimal overlap.

Does your playgroup allow for "outside the game" concepts for Fae of Wishes // Granted , Wish , Burning Wish ? Have you thought about doing custom proxies for each card? So you can use an online website to make up the cards with your characters and they have the "alternative names&qu...

Even though you say the theme doesn't dictate your mana, the 99 still matters a lot. How many early plays are necessary and is that skewed to particular colors? My 5-color Niv-Mizzet Reborn deck doesn't have any plays until turn three so I can afford quite a few tapped lands. Most decks have some t...

3bb is a pretty solid rate to just win the game

I'm currently working on a 5c mana base. Every other time I've built 5c I've had some guidance on the lands that I put into it. A pile of typal lands for my Changeling deck. All the bounce lands for my dredge deck. All dual face cards for my esika. Once I have those slots taken up the rest of the la...

I tried to run this in my Changeling deck for recursion but it was just too slow. I have a hard imagining running this as an actual goblin commander over some of the mono-R options.
