Re: Mana Crypt for every precon?

I just thought I would point out that they were relatively affordable recently I'm not sure $50 for a single card is 'relatively affordable' to most players. This is obviously not me; my historic cap has been around $250 for cards I *really* wanted, but it's not impossible I go higher (I have been ...

Re: Mana Crypt for every precon?

I know we are talking about putting this card into a $35 product but I just thought I would point out that just a few years ago when it got reprinted you could get them for $50. Its still a difference in price but its not like it wasn't recently close to the price we are talking about. That is a big...

Re: Bruna, the Fading Light - Mono-W Moat Control

Any thought towards Sephara, Sky's Blade ? Its big, flying, lifelinking, and keeps other threats alive through sweepers. It seems kind of interesting to me at the least. I have been finding random Baneslayer Angel type creatures to be good enough for me though so maybe its just me on this one. I wa...

Re: Card list by Role/Function - What's your approach?

I always go by card type even though technically speaking cards do have multiple functions. My issue with sorting by role is that as someone reading someone else's list no two people will organize by function the same so I have a much harder time seeing what is and isn't there. I also hate that in ...

Re: Commander 2019 Speculation

When do these previews start? Generally speaking 2-3 weeks before the product drops. Given that M2020 dropped a week ago and the next set is announced for October 4thish release I would guess that means that this product will hit somewhere about mid to late August which means early august is really...

Re: Mana Crypt for every precon?

The weird thing about commander is the huge price-range of decks that people play. From a competitive standpoint, it's probably a good idea to run Mana Crypt in almost every commander deck, but according to EDHrec, only 9% of decks run it. Why? Well it costs $200, that's why. Wizards have often rem...

Re: Commander 2019 Speculation

it sounds like for this will be another time in which i might just go for singles I assume every year that is where I will be generally speaking and I let myself be convinced otherwise rather than assuming I will want all of the decks until I see the contents.

Re: Commander 2019 Speculation

Given the themes we have heard: Morph: I am going to guess this is a 3+ color deck that includes blue. I say this from the standpoint that blue seems to have some of the better morph cards and some cool morph support like Ixidor, Reality Sculptor and Ixidron . I think it will likely be 3-5 colors fr...

Re: Mana Crypt for every precon?

Honestly, if wizards hadn't printed the hell out of Sol Ring it would be expensive as hell too. I really hate the fact that they take the secondary market pricing into account as to what they print and what they don't. There are a lot of great commander cards that if they had printed as liberally as...

Re: Prospect of a cEDH Committee on MTGNexus

The hard part would be finding a group to spearhead it that is acknowledged to some degree that others would listen to them. The RC had the advantage that they weren't splintering off of some other format really (ok technically they were off highlander but nobody really played that). You would reall...

Re: Changing Commanders

I find myself retiring one deck and making another that might be similar colors / concept but I never really consider it changing my commander because I feel like every commander should be built fundamentally different assuming you aren't taking literally one goodstuff commander and inserting another.

Re: Having Your Voice Heard

I think the issue is that every meta is different and that is sort of the problem with communication. There isn't really a right answer because there isn't a national meta in the sense that when you look at standard, modern, legacy, vintage there is data and a national meta to back up results.

I suspect it might be a case of a rough transition rather than a plan for sally to be no forums but I guess time will tell. If sally forums are done or down for some amount of time it might make a better transition over to here. Oh hai. 👋🏼😊 There's an old face. I missed your sig and avy shop :p

Let me start of by saying this right now is a rough draft with me adding and trimming cards yet. I am very much interested in suggestions as its kind of a different kind of commander.

Kiyomaro, First to Stand & Trample

If I have Kiyomaro, First to Stand and give him trample with a 7+ card hand, I assume he still only triggers once when trampling over a blocker or multi blocked? I get that if he double strikes it would trigger twice but I figured I would ask about doing damage to multiple things. I assume it still ...

Re: Lyra Angel Tribal

I am a big fan of Angel of Condemnation given it gives you control options and curves well with Lyra. Sunblast Angel could be sweet too just for some random control + angel synergy. Magus of the Moat - I run it in my Bruna deck and its a sweet card for an angels deck. It is great defense from token ...
