Nice pick! This is one of the OTJ commanders that appealed to me most. He reminds me of Talrand, which I played quite a bit in the past - cast some instants, make some flying tokens, draw cards and protect your board. Eris's dragons are a bit harder to create (even though his second ability triggers...

It has been a while since I updated this deck. The deck has been taken apart a few months ago, but the Timmy itch is surfacing again so I am putting either Svella or Mayael back together. I made a lot of changes to the deck - 29 swaps! - to hopefully improve its performance. I moved from artifact an...

Alright, mulled it over and pokken convinced me to try the Phyrexian wurm out. The Changes: REMOVED :fuming: Krosan Tusker : Out... for now. You have been a good boy :pensive:. ADDED :) Defiler of Vigor : Good stats for the cost and relevant abilities. He should allow me to chain creatures more effi...

re: Defiler of Vigor I really dig defiler in this deck because of your volume of creatures of low to intermediate mana cost. right now you may win with Kamahl, Fist of Krosa but you could also win with casting 3-4 dudes with Defiler and then beating face for 70 based on that :D The mana reduction *...

Played the deck on the FNM yesterday, and it performed quit well. I noticed that some cards did not really pull their weight however. The soul sisters were lackluster. Overperforming were Archon of Emeria and Rule of Law . The Changes: REMOVED :fuming: Mindcrank : It combos with Bloodchief Ascension...

The Changes: REMOVED :fuming: Fyndhorn Elves : Took out a dork for a dork. ADDED :) Fanatic of Rhonas : This card seems made for Yeva. Play it on turn 2, bring out Yeva somewhere in the T3 cycle and have the Fanatic tap for four mana the turns after. Sure, it cannot ramp into three-mana creatures l...

Just a note between @benjameenbear and I, we're built for very different environments, and you'd do well to know what your playgroup is at before you jump into our lists. For example, I find most cDHers are such that it's talked about and pushed online but in practice you find much more chill table...

Nice primer 3drinks! I was reminded of Kaalia again when she was spoiled in MH3. At one point in history I actually owned the 'Heavenly Inferno' commander precon, but that was before I started playing commander - I traded most of the cards away. The itch to build her is definitely there: I did reall...

I stick to buying singles usually, but they had two collectors boosters left... eh :woozy:. This is the main loot; also openend a foil Phyrexian Tower which I traded away, and someone else had a Fanatic of Rhonas (straight into Yeva) and Nadu, Winged Wisdom for me. Fetches are always neat to have, a...

I always double-sleeve my cards: inners and outers. Doesn't matter if it's an expensive or cheap deck.

Nice CEDH brew! There are some people playing CEDH in my shop and the bird might actually be a commander I am interested in. Also considering building him for a more casual setting (maybe a focus on auras or something that's similarly janky?), but this guy is so easy to break :woozy:. EDIT: How good...

I'm not surprised. It's got that Feather quality where it does something novel and zany, yet useful. It's a cool design alright. We had a fun little thought exercise with the guys recently and we ranked the various decks of the ten years (!) of the group into a tier list. Not all of them existed at...

I bought some Gamegenic Prime Sleeves this week and sleeved one of my new decks in it. First impression: these are excellent! They shuffle really smoothly and they are not as stiff as the Dragonshield Mattes that I have always been using so far. They are costed me 7 euros for 100 sleeves I think? Th...

Played one game with Avacyn yesterday. Game went pretty well initially - had access to plenty of draw and I got Avacyn out ahead of curve. However, there was one big problem matchup-wise: there was a Lord Windgrace deck at the table who got an Maze of Ith out pretty early. That was kind of inconven...

Couple new cards that caught my eye Hellspur Posse Boss -- Beetleback Chief with upsides Brimstone Roundup -- In my case this is also an enchantment, but all in all an efficient token generator that's pretty easy to trigger for decks like these Geralf, the Fleshwright -- Another Talrand of sorts Ah...

First of all, interesting take on Narset, Enlightened Exile ! I really like enchantment-based decks :check:. Here are some of my initial thoughts: I am not sure if Skullclamp is super good in Narset. When you cast Skullclamp existing 1-toughness creatures on your side of the board will get buffed ou...

The Changes: REMOVED :fuming: Memory Deluge : Right... during goldfishing I realised that this card doesn't do its thing when you try and cast it with Narset from the graveyard. I have grown to really appreciate this card over the past few months, but I'd rather run something that does actually wor...

So I was typing out a response as I run a Narset EE deck as well, then I thought the effort was probably better spent creating the thread: https://www.mtgnexus.com/viewtopic.php?t=279825 Mine is more enchantress-focused than yours and prefers to run more repeatable enchantments like Flickering Ward...

Probably the thing that upsets me the most about this set so far is the horrifying treatments in the breaking news cards. those cards are ugly af. Yeah... not really a fan of those either. I like the "wanted" Gisa alternate art by Greg Staples though, she looks so morbidly cheerful: https...

Woooh, a music thread :grin:! Enjoyed reading what kind of music everyone listens to. I am always on the lookout for new tracks and artists. My own musical taste spans all kinds of genres... when I was a kid I wasn't particularly interested in music, but that changed when I was about eight years old...

Monday, March 25th 2024; Animal Friend I wonder why they didn't go for mole-rats, since those are more in tune with Fallout lore. Card is... eh. Making a 4/4 should be doable if your deck is built around auras and equipments. But if you are equipping your creature/commander with 4/5 aura's and/or e...

Sunday, March 24th 2024; Back to Basics Back to Basics|usg This and Blood Moon are the bane of my existence. My mana bases are really greedy 🤣. I generally run enough interaction to remove these effects, and I know which players in my LGS tend to run these, so I can play around them at least a bit.

Definitely consider adding Brought Back btw, narset being able to hit it and bring back fetchlands is pretty amazing. You can fetch fetch, brought back, then next turn do it again :D More fetches you run the better here, ofc. I visited my LGS today to browse through the single maps and I actually s...

Some initial changes based on goldfishing this list for a day - removed some ramp as the deck doesn't need that much of it and tweaked some categories. This might be the list I will be testing in my LGS. I have no idea how it will perform :P... kind of fun honestly, as I generally build decks and st...

Extra turns and combats are the obvious lines I think. But might be worth a couple. I like the rebound one since you can get three out of it. Thank you for responding! In all honesty, I didn't even think about extra turns and combats :rofl:. Guess she is more like OG Narset than I imagined. You mea...
