I like them with Everglades / Jungle Basin (and if I have Crucible of Worlds or other land GY shenanigans - Lake of the Dead and friends) I remember I used to have bunch of these, but I must have given them away as they were not working out for me many years ago. Might need to get some again, at le...

I like the idea of this card, because I love Gonti and effects that steals from bottom of library could be abused a bit better than top of library, I think, but the mana value is bit ridonculous.

IIW: X equals to commander's mana value

Reminded me of 'pauper Commander' I've came up against in an LGS once. It was surprisingly fun to play against. We tried this once, but the lack of mass removal made it a very exhausting experience, because the board was gummed up beyond recognition... though this was many years ago. That's why you...

omg what?! There has to be way to abuse it somehow, right? Like maybe avoid 'lose on your next turn'? If you don't have a turn, maybe you'll live?

Thanks for the replies everyone! Welcome welcome. It's nice to see new faces show up here. Thank you :) there's a few cards which have triggers like "Whenever you draw your first/second card each turn" which the Onslaught cycle of these are really great at firing. (this kinda lead to me ma...

I said it in a different topic but it fits here too... to me Commander is like a drinking game, the point is to have fun, not to win. I approach my politics with that in mind. Generally when I try make deals it's either because I want to do something 'cool' (not something that will win me the game, ...

1. I suppose there is a scientific answer along the lines of 'good deck functions, doesn't stall often (if at all), and wins above average'. But I agree with the sentiment that 'good deck' depends on what your intentions are. Personally, what makes a deck good for me, rather than winning, is engagin...

I can very much relate to the comments about not enjoying long games that stall, and having more fun when I can play more games within an evening. I've noticed in myself that I don't enjoy games where nothing is happening, and I want games to finish fairly quickly so we can have another game. This i...

I don't limit myself often these days because more often than not I ended up in a situation where the deck was too slow, or just had no impact in games for another reason. For example, I've built an Abomination of Llanowar deck and at first all creatures had to be elves. I was enjoying the deck but ...

Hey all, I am deck building, going through my lands and every time I get to the mono-colour cycling lands, I have the classic dilemma of "they are great to replace a late game dead draw, but I don't like them entering tapped in the early game". They never make the cut for me, but I thought...

I was going to dismiss Blight Mound but as you mentioned Teysa, I might have to get a copy for my own deck Same with the Mizzium Mortars, I actually really like that card as boardwipe that doesn't kill my utility dorks... should do well in decks like Feather and Eruth.

I'd like to challenge you to notate the number of times you actually need to point removal at something and then notate the times it's an x/3. You'd be surprised just how often the penultimate target is a Thalia, Heretic Cathar or Gaddock Teeg ... Dismember hits roughly ~87% of valid creatures in t...

But some color combos suck at removal. I would see playing this in Gruul for sure. Mono-red (on the more controlling side/graveyard recursion side). And maybe you play this over other removal is you have a Swans of Bryn Argoll or Stuffy Doll deck. I agree, and thinking about it, it's why I didn't h...

can you elaborate on this? I can kinda guess what you mean but I am not 100% sure. Sure. What I meant is that when it comes to single target removal spells, there are plenty that simply destroy or exile target creature (or permanent), even Blue has few of those now. In my mind, I'd rather almost al...

I am still reluctant to play burn effect removal spells, just feels like it is too easy to get around it in Commander. Maybe if the deck was purpose built for doing damage.

Try resolving Tooth and Nail for this + Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir if you want to feel extra dirty.

no, no I really don't but thanks for the tip!
