Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion
I'd much rather play Wishclaw Talisman in a table with randoms than in a set playgroup. Some people certainly target me due to me being a better player, but mostly I'd presume people know that I probably have the perfect answer or perfect wincon for their strategy somewhere in the deck, and am likel...

Re: Tips&Tricks: Gisela Prisonfort
Bought a modern horizons booster on a whim and pulled a Prismatic Vista . Easy addition (to all my decks, really). I cut Kjeldoran Outpost for it as saccing a plains hurts really bad early. Yes, token generation is nice, but it's not nice enough to warrant destroying a land. It's been consistently l...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion
I like Witch's Vengeance . Not sure if it's actually any good outside of randomly hitting tribal decks, but it's a cheap boardwipe that doesn't kill my own stuff so I can run it without any qualms in a creature list. Nice. There's probably similar effects out there that I can run already printed tha...

Marisa.dec (Maelstrom Wanderer Theft)
This is my Wanderer deck. There are many like it, but this one is mine. It's made with the intention to be explosive, hard to shut down, and use threats from other decks (not battlefields) to close down the game. It's a bit hard to balance, but I think I'm on the right path. I'm always welcoming car...

Re: Underused Cards in EDH
One of my favorite games of limited, ever, involved using Sign in Blood to get past an Elderscale Wurm after my opponent's entire board was locked down by Xathrid Gorgon . Good times.... As for my own underplayed card, I'll throw out Possibility Storm . It's an excellent disruptive card, since it m...

Re: Anje, not Sparta, and probably not Worldgorger
THANK you. I've been looking for an Anjie deck that doesn't rely on Worldgorger. I don't have much to help with at the moment, but it definitely helps to know someone else is exploring the same methods as I am. Thanks ^^ Goodluck with testing & I'd love if you'd share any cool tips or cards if ...

I don't mind walkers in constructed (espcecially EDH), but I very much prefer drafting where there are no walkers.

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion
Korvold, Fae-Cursed King: I misread this guy at first, and on second read holy cats. I didn't think they could make an aristocrats/foodchain-style Jund commander more dangerous than the infamous Prossh, Skyraider of Kher, but, well, there it is. One thing to keep in mind is that Korvold doesn't go ...

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Inferno
Oh, Mairsil, the Pretender has a long history eh. Instant speed and having a the dark printing is cute, but I can't see myself running this over something that's XR for X damage (like Rolling Earthquake , Earthquake , Subterranean Tremors ) or XRR for X damage with upside ( Fault Line , Magmaquake ,...

Anje, not Sparta, and probably not Worldgorger
Anje is easily my favorite C19 commander, and exactly my time of commander. She makes bad cards good, I mean, I can run Twins of Maurer Estate in commander, in a deck that's trying to be optimized. What's not to love? Now, the majority of builds I've seen are based on Worldgorger Dragon , which I do...

Re: Random Deck of the Week Thread
My decklist got a few minor changes because of some cards I acquired over the weekend. I guess my main question for people would be what is the optimal ratio/number of 1cc creatures, lands, tutors, wheels, and other cards? No idea. I'd run like, 29 lands I think, since you only really need 2-3 to g...

Re: Unreleased and New Card Discussion
I'm loving the aesthetics of the new set, especially the adventure cards! I'm hoping I'll get a good one that fits in a deck of mine.
Re: Manabond
I love it. 72 lands with manabond etc. Don't have a decklist posted, but it's Thrasios&Tymna. It has enough redundancy that it's still playable as a deck, probably, even if I've barely played it so I can't say for sure. I love dropping it early and getting like 5 lands off it. Untapping T2 with ...

Re: Random Deck of the Week Thread
I've never played with a Damia or an Elfball deck, but I've played against both, but never as a combination. I'd like to play against a deck like this sometime, as I've found both Damia and Elfball fun to play against. I'm just worried about the lack of interaction as well as the game-winning turn t...

Re: Tips&Tricks: Gisela Prisonfort
Teferi's Protection is just such a disgustingly good blanket catch-all that it's not even funny. There's supposedly a saying that you can't lose as long as you're holding up a Cryptic Command in 60-card constructed, this is like that but for EDH. Blank removal, casually dodge gigantic swings, flick...

Re: Tips&Tricks: Gisela Prisonfort
I know you say in the introduction that you want to avoid blue as a personal choice, but having a legendary three-drop Mystic Barrier out of the command zone seems like it'd be pretty okay for the deck in principle. Might be tempting. The carrot's dangling. I'll agree that Teferi's Protection is go...

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Crystal Vein
My friend who runs a somewhat budget all-in Narset deck runs this card. It'll probably get cut as he aqcuires a etter land as it's been mediocre even there, even if it's not awful. It can give you Narset a turn earlier, which is nice if you have a haste outlet, but incase you don't win on the spot y...

Re: Field of the Dead
It's pretty good in my 98 land deck, it's one of my main wincons. I hadn't thought to split the lands between snow/nonsnow...granted I've only got like 3 islands and 3 forests as my only duplicates anyway. Getting value from lands late-game can definitely be pretty good. Obviously a bit slow for a ...

I don't have very many edh decks and the ones I do don't have this. but isn't this card like the epitome of value? ramps and replaces itself maybe in edh this should be a 4/4? seems like a card that is a auto include in every deck. . .then cut for specifics (which is what im coming to understand as...

Re: [mtgnexus] Random Card of the Day - Solemn Simulacrum
I cut my last one yesterday. Unless I have some sort of value recursion engine that allows me to recur it, I don't see myself running it again. The effect the card provides just isn't worth 4 mana unless you have some additional synergies with it. It's a nice value card, it's just not nice enough, s...

Windfall seems like an obvious inclusion?
