Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Bogardan Hellkite

Still a decent card to me, though not obviously not a first pick in any dragon focused strategies. Scourge of Valkas, Terror of the Peaks, and Red Dragon are fine enough Miirym, Sentinel Wyrm clone spam OTK options as is.

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Cloudstone Curio

Oh hey one of those cards that essentially tell the table exactly what you are planning to do and that by casting this card you have forfeited your right to complain when we kill you.

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Counterspell

It's honestly still a fine card. A lot of commander players only think they really need to splurge on more meta picks like Flusterstorm and Force of Negation because of internet stuff like EDHRec and Youtube but you'd be amazed at how often this less than a dollar common card can still save your butt.

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Necrotic Hex

Tuesday, February 20th, 2024; Necrotic Hex Necrotic Hex Can't complain, honestly. Wipe + army-in-a-can. Seven mv is fine for this effect given the w versions are 5-6 and only leave behind a single body. Can't complain either, it's a really fun boardwipe. I'd rather be in a game where this actually ...

That sounds really fun, though it'll cost you every turn since the equipment will fall off of him eot when he stops being a creature.

Still worth it though.
This is EDH you're supposed to do dumb things instead of win :P

Also yeah today's card exists I guess.

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Helm of the Host

Yeah its expensive and clunky but I love this card. I love slapping this on a dragon form Sarkhan the Masterless and I love my opponent looking over at my field on their turn when they calculate their attacks and immediately displaying the body language of "Oh F- no".

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Kaalia of the Vast

I feel like this card (And Atraxa) actually embodies the EDH community quite well. Like, she's both among of the most iconic and popular commanders while also among the most hated commanders all at the same time. I'm guess sure she's aged surprisingly well? What with recent haymakers like Ancient Co...

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Taigam, Ojutai Master

I get they wanted to make cards for both Bad Present Taigam and Other Bad Present Taigam but the fact that he's a human makes him kind of one of the first cuts anyone would make when modifying their Draconic Domination precons. Time has gotten even worse for him as dragon support as we have a ton of...

Re: What basic lands do you run?

My preferred default for most is the John Avon Urza's Saga lands. My dragon decks of course use the Dragons of Tarkir lands. My Lulu and Criminal Past deck uses New Phyrexia's lands. Gotta get around to replacing them with All Will be One's full arts.

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Mirage Mirror

"No! Mono red is weak in commander!"
"Haha 2 Fiery Emancipations go boom"

The card's a blast. It's not exactly consistent enough for me to just throw into any deck but if I have spaces left for something funny it's a pretty good pick.

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Karona, False God

I always assumed that her design as a card made absolutely no sense because it was trying to be as nonsensical as the Scourge novel's climax as a whole.

As someone who is nostalgic for the onslaught block I would love to see a retrain of Karona.

Also The One Ring needs a hard once per game on that ETB. It's not cards like Emry, Lurker of the Loch and Arcbound Reclaimer don't exist.

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Winding Canyons

I'm not the biggest fan of Vedalken Orrery and I'd still run it over Winding Canyons. Besides, we're getting enough utility critters with built in flash as is anyways.
