NOOOO Kirri, Talented Sprout why aren't you Golgari

I always thought Yuma is better with black (therefore Jund), since a major aspect of the color is self-actualization, and Yuma's background is pretty much it. Kirri as black would make him so much more interesting.

If we look at individual triggers, there are better substitutes, but Pip-Boy let you choose the best of three for current situation, such versatility allows it to go into many deck types.

That reminded me, Thopter Spy Network and Saheeli, the Gifted are both in a way three types in one card. Servo Schematic literally adds two types right before Loot comes out. Given artifact creatures' colorless nature and abundance in token form, they appear to be the easiest path to go. That said, ...

So with Loot, the Key to Everything , you'd probably get 2~3 extra cards a turn without trying, consider almost every deck uses mana rock and creatures, even spellslingers. Cards like Paradox Haze and Sphinx of the Second Sun would buff that # even further.. And like Grogu of Star Wars, Loot's desti...

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha, they gave us a Baby Yoda? This game is cooked.

At the same time mean Jace is now basically Din Djarin / The Mandalorian

If anything, that resolves the problem of how Jace/Vraska gonna have a child together.

Of the three remaining: 1 is one of the precon commanders. 1 I'm pretty on the fence about, could definitely be wrong. 1 I can't believe no one has said yet xD Stella Lee, Wild Card , Geralf, the Fleshwright , and Marchesa, Dealer of Death ? All three value small and quick spells in rapid successio...

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...

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...

Yeah, going actual historic would probably open too many cans of worms in this age.

As long as WotC doesn't call it a "documentary".

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...

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.

Monday, February 12th, 2024; Heroic Intervention Heroic Intervention Given white is the color of defense and protection, I half-expected this to protect creatures only, with white getting a version that protects everything. Then again, Teferi's Protection protects more and Akroma's Will can end gam...

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.

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...

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...

They likely won't ban any card WotC put into the mythic slots, especially the reprints.

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.

There are 69 assassins, and 225 horrors.

Speak of which... isn't Assassin's Creed coming up later this year? O_O I wonder if that'd fill in the gap.

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...

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...

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.

Now there's a chance we might get a legend who is the ghost of...

Maybe a morph mechanic that attacks Role auras to the face-down creature.

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