Yeah, it's not shocking the reaction this card got when it was spoiled. The big thing is, it just isn't that interesting in the long run. I don't know why, but when I have it on the field I just don't feel good about having done it. Regardless, it is in my Nikya deck. It does work as a distraction f...

Terminus was one of my finishers in my Karametra deck. The goal was the have a bunch of dorks and lands and have something like Nyxbloom Ancient on the board. Draw into Terminus and tap out all my mana with a Genesis Wave in hand. Essentially, wipe out the board state, then replenish my field with ...

Have you considered playing Pauper EDH? Its great on the budget as even someone trying to min max can really only spend so much. Its nice in that you can usually build a fairly optima deck and it often only costs like $30 for the whole deck and thats assuming you need to order everything. There are...

Are you playing somewhat cutthroat in your EDH pods or something? No, not really. The short answer is I'm an asshole. The long answer is that I really enjoy just messing with people, so when someone comes in and tries to use a fetchland that's been either a nuisance or just a buddy of mine, I might...

i think my biggest issue with budget builds is pricing the cards. i have had many of the cards in my collection for years and i have no idea what their value is anymore. some cards i expect to be budget turn out to be relatively expensive. We use scryfall as our price guideline. If you can look up ...

Back when our LGS was running rampant with people who tutored and won on like turn 5, I ran this card in every single deck that it could fit into. Watching someone who thinks they are so amazing because they brought a power 8 deck to a power 4 table get thwarted in their efforts is super satisfying....

Recently my playgroup and I have decided to start building decks that are within a certain budget. We did this several reasons: 1. One of our playgroup's members has a habit of going ham on every deck he builds. He's always got his decks loaded to the brim in ramp and mana rocks that are expensive a...

Oh how I have been looking forward to a thread like this! I absolutely love to slam a Narset's Reversal under a scepter. You get to either copy your spells and leave them in your hand for later (I love to copy my ramp spells this way) or you can use them to either intimidate the board or to just pla...

Hello everyone! I want to run a tribal deck that is kind of out there. It doesn't have to be good at all, just something kinda fun. I was looking into doing something with Kithkin, as they are one of my favorite creature types, but I am not really sure if there is really a good commander for them. I...

Inb4 nOt As GoOd As MaNa DrAiN /10 Ah yes, the end all be all of counterspells. I mean I hate to be that guy but to be fair it isn't as good as mana drain, but mana drain is also over $100 at this point and I think that, for the price difference, a little more mana isn't really worth that much mone...

By far my favorite card that I never see anyone else play is Meletis Charlatan.

There is so much you can do with the politics of game with this on the field. You can make friends or you can make enemies. I personally like to use it in my Kruphix group hug deck.

I am sure there have been games where you sit down with 3 other people and look at the commanders and think to yourself, "I am definitely going after the [insert unfun commander here] player. His [not fun combo] combo is not fun at all." Now, the question I want to ask is, is this acceptab...

We had some people stop coming because of that. The recent bans have kind of left a bad taste in some of the player's mouths. Are those really the people you want to worry about? Those who quit over 2 cards, and wont just make the decision to play what they want within their group? Not really, hone...

There was lots of paradox engine pouting but most people adjusted pretty fast from what I could see. We had some people stop coming because of that. The recent bans have kind of left a bad taste in some of the player's mouths. Have you talked to your local store manager? We've tried talking to him ...

Lately, the only LGS that is around my area has started to make some decisions that have led to a massive drop in Commander attendees causing there to be several nights where Commander just ends up being a 3 man Pod with no one else attending. This seems to be the result of: 1. The LGS no longer hol...
