Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion
I...don't like Spree at all. Here's a card that doesn't actually do anything for its cost--you have to pay the additional costs. It's like kicker, or multi-kicker, except the base card doesn't do anything. It just seems...unintuitive. Mayhap, but it looks like they're all 1cc to begin with, which m...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion
Pardon an ignorant blue mage, but if you don't like the fact that Boros legends do Boros things, why do you want to play Boros? What is Boros, though? Or to be exact, what is W/R? The fact that we keep calling the W/R combination "Boros" already molded us into seeing the color pair as not...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion
In case anyone missed it, Mariposa Military Base is a strictly-better Arch of Orazca . So Phelddagrif getting more UB cards. I guess I'm happy. Yay. You'd need a steady supply of Rad counters though. You lose a counter (and 1 life) each time you mill a nonland card via Rad. A win for those who bene...

Struggle for Project Purity looks wild if you choose "Brotherhood" - which you propably should. Yeah that card is pretty gnarly. Honestly wtf is the point of the other mode lol, why would anyone choose that? I guess if someone else has gone mega-wide and you're holding a fog? Maybe in 1v1...

Re: How frequently do you crack packs?
I used to pick up one box per set and all the precons, now I cannot keep up with all the new cards so I buy a box selectively, and pick up some or no precons.

Re: Non-Basic Land Soft Hosers
I like Mana Web as a way to host multicolor decks. It forces opponents to spend their mana within the same phase and hinders their instant-speed strategies.

Re: Was WotC's embrace of Commander a good thing?
And from the player side, it's why the format has lost a lot of its identity - new players without the experience of standard play commander because it's the primary magic format, but they don't have a reason to care about the nuance of moderating power levels to create more enjoyable games. Plus p...

Re: Was WotC's embrace of Commander a good thing?
All things in moderation. Part of the fun of creating EDH decks in the past is using cards (including legendary creatures) that's clearly designed for 60 cards and make it work in a 100 singleton. WotC's heavy catering of EDH format in recent years added quite a number of good things, such has Monar...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion
I'm incorporating the Boros goad deck into my Marchesa deck. A lot of great cards that'd add to the political feud.
Unexplained absence and any cards that creature creatures for opponents will further douse oil on fire.

Re: Assassin or Horror?
The ability to steal cards without going to combat is VERY relevant, as a gummed up board making attacks difficult is somewhat common in EDH. That is true... and I hesitate to think about using Training Grounds for Etrata just to reduce flip costs. Though, while N'gthathrod can hit or miss on the s...

Assassin or Horror?
Namely, Etrata, Deadly Fugitive or Captain N'ghathrod . Etrata: 1) Potentially create multiple colorless creatures per turn, from different players. 2) Can turn ANY of your face-down morph creature face-up for a flat cost, even if she didn't create it. 3) Can turn non-creature morphs face-up to &quo...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion
I'm a fan of Etrata, Deadly Fugitive. Manifesting (cloaking) regularly is a fun enough effect, what's better is you can cast non-creature spells from morphs.

Having two rows of numbers instead of one is definitely a clearer way in describing a deck. I'm a 3-3.

Silverquill. I think WotC should start looking at black as a color not just about cruelty and ruthlessness, but also cunning and knows how to bargain.

Changes/Themes you want to enforce in a color(s)
See title. This is a brainstorming topic. I like the "modular" theme we recently see in W/G, such as Gylwain, Casting Director and Aragorn, Company Leader , combining both color's affinity for creatures and blessings. Instead of giving out something powerful, you put small trinkets here an...

Should Multiplayer EDH Have Less Than 40 Starting Life?
I'm sure this isn't the first time people brought up such idea. I'm thinking maybe -5 starting life for every player beyond two, i.e., three players would each have 35 life, four players would each have 30 life, with 20 life being the minimum after that. Hell, I honestly wouldn't mind -10 starting l...

Re: Ixalan Commander Decks Impressions?
In a sense that makes the Pirate deck best of the bunch, since you take advantage of stealing your opponents' stuff and every game is different.
