I played against an Obeka deck recently. Cool deck but has a major flaw. If you trickbind or stifle Obeka, it's an instant loose game and friend. 🤭
I thought it was hilarious with trickbind, he did not.

How about adding deflecting swat?

Is lithoform engine really worth it?

Thanks! I have not been playing much since covid tried to destroy my thyroid. I am recovering now trying to get back to playing, working out, and not coughing.....

Awesome!

Need to update list

Ben...how is the deck working with new stax pieces, lithoform engine, and other new stuff?

With all the land fall, what is everyone saying thoughts on Acid Rain ?

Congratulations!!!!

Thorn of Amathist might be worth a try for stax.

Sadly, invoke prejudice is no longer in my possession. I traded it for a Masterpiece Mana crypt!!!! Memnarch has bling now!!! I it's place, I replaced it with staff of dominance. Also added new foil full art brainstorm, cyclonic rift, and academy ruins. They look amazing! Added invocation counterspe...

Price of Glory has great as it shows up regularly. I have seen a counter war to remove/protect it from opponents. Hilarious to watch. If it sticks, the game dynamic changes immediately to punch face game.
Terror of the peaks has yet to show up in any games.

Memnarch did great this weekend. Overburden plus shackles is hilariously good. In my area, red decks are everywhere. Lots of aggressive decks, thus your stax methodology for memnarch might not be to bad. Making them pay an extra 1 is enough to hose them. I noticed lots of decks have heavy reliance o...

Urza works better with stacks cause you can use them to tap for mana with Urza. Memnarch needs 7 mana to work. Urza is colorless to activate. I am interested to see how those stax pieces work for you.

I tried stax and it doesn't work with memnarch at all. I need mana to defend myself with board wipes are tricks. I play against it a lot and Urza is the top dog in that battle. Overburden, invoke prejudice (not legal anymore, middle finger to wotc), and other effects are better in my experience for ...

I stopped using lattice combo as Collector Oophe and stony silence is highly used these days.

Also, dockside extortionist is a thing.

Looks like I found a new play group. Awesome. There a lot of token strategies being used lately or just tribal. Overburden is a wonderful control measure for that. Been seeing seriously greedy mana bases and over extending of the board. Board wipes, tough choices cards (overburden), and back to basi...

Let me clear the air...I was yelled at in public restaurant over entirely defensive plays. I was belittled without saying much as the place went silent listening to a bully yelling at me with 2 other followers getting mad at me for stopping them. I am not playing to be superior or trying to be super...

Self reflection...I am a tactician and find more players are getting mad at me because I say no to their shenanigans. This play group hates on anyone that's not a close friend or not just playing jank. I am not play first sliver food chain. It's not really cEDH. I did think about it all night. These...

Memnarch did its' thing tonight. Want to play it once in a while. Pod basically made me the enemy immediately. Fine. I board wiped twice, facing cat/dogs, Zurgo, and Golos. Their stuff tried to blow up mine and attacks where very high, so I burned cards to control it. Stuck a Rhistic study mid game ...

It's a lovely card. Price of Glory makes interaction MUCH more painful for opponents and often draws out removal faster than anything, which opens the way for other Stax pieces to stick. I think it's a great Stax piece that depends on the meta, as it punishes lands but not mana dorks or mana rocks ...

Thoughts on Price of Glory for stax?

Hey fellow blue lovers! I have been playing more and found that we need more board wipes. card I want to try! Overburden We have a lot of bounce abilities and thought it would be hilarious. I am seeing major creatures decks built of big creatures or mass tokens. Seems like a cheap control on the mana.
