Re: Aminatou, the Fateshifter - The 8-year-old Planeswalker
Blinking for theft and 5 land untap is pretty sweet - sort of a mana doubler mode for Aminatou, the Fateshifter.

Re: Who wants to talk about spite scooping?
I really enjoy playing around the rager at my table. I often maneuver it so she and I are the last ones standing if I possibly can.

Re: Leori, Sparktouched Hunter - I'm less popular than freaking Omarthis? Wtf?
I have a Carth the Lion deck - only seems fitting to round it out with the other half of the planeswalkers :D
Are you mostly angling for commander asap, play any walker after to profit?
Or is it moreso wait for the coast to be clear?

What are you playing as your top end on brawl? If you have a list (or screenshot) I'd be very interested in it.

Re: Smeagol, Helping Himself to Your Precious Lands
Trying to build this deck on Arena for historic brawl — I'm really torn between the aristocrats style and going straight into tempt cards. Preliminary games have shown that it's more difficult to get a self sac online by the turn 3 Sméagol. I'm wondering if it might be better to try to enable a turn...

Re: Tivit's Bed and Breakfast
Good Lord. I updated my blink list, taking out several of the single target blinks for the clone package, Panharmonicon , and went harder on the Second Sunrise effects. Some highlights from the game — Panharmonicon into Tivit, Seller of Secrets into Spark Double on the same turn, leaving up 6 treasu...

What about Rowan Kenrith and Will Kenrith? They search each other up to keep you up on gas, and Will is very good at protecting yourself.

Re: Leori, Sparktouched Hunter - I'm less popular than freaking Omarthis? Wtf?
Yes, it works for all planeswalkers in class - so it definitely reads to me like a card that wants to go Chandra, Teferi, or Jace tribal. Sure, it's great to double one thing - but doubling all the things is even better. Ichormoon Gauntlet , therefore, is bananas. Picture a case where you have 3 wal...

Re: Queen Marchesa - Games We Play
I'm willing to look past legality for contraptions - I think it's clear that if the set were printed after unfinity instead of prior, they would be. My group will be okay with it give a rule zero conversation.
That said, the enablers are GARBAGE.

What an awesome thing to do for someone else's deck. Thank you in a big way!

Re: Queen Marchesa - Games We Play
I… didn't know Fighter Class existed. What a beating!
I like a lot of these suggestions and will look to implement them for sure. Reconnaissance is such a neat design. I feel like if they stapled it to a commander it would be some 5 cost monstrosity in Naya.

Queen Marchesa - Games We Play
Throwing up some ideas here from my thread on the general forum. The idea in general is to play some of the games within the game of magic that deliberately hit dopamine spikes / mental scratchings of an itch. We've got dungeons, the monarchy, flip cards, battles, superfriends, land combos, the ring...

Re: Mini games - the best commander?
You are spot on in your assessment - I want all of those elements that enter from outside the game. Sunforger package is definitely happening. I played this in 60 card casual, but never commander somehow. I realize that I cannot do every everything in one deck, but I also like the idea of Otharri, S...

Re: Mini games - the best commander?
I'm game for some stickers, attractions, and perhaps even contraptions. I don't know how the mechanics work though. Do you pre-assemble the attractions / stickers that are in your pool, and then choose at random among those when you get a sticker or open an attraction?

On the note of collecting all three: Assembling Kaldra was a big bucket list item that I eventually ticked off the list.

Re: Mini games - the best commander?
The quests and flips are good ones — I have all the possible flip lands in a lands deck, even just connecting with a Dowsing Dagger // Lost Vale scratches the itch. I badly want to flip Azor's Gateway // Sanctum of the Sun and go off. Alternate win conditions have never been my thing. I like mill wh...

Mini games - the best commander?
One of my favorite elements of magic is the game within the game that you can create with engines and synergies. It's a style of play that I've identified in a few brewers on the forums here - and I believe may even be inherent to the type of person who likes to be on magic forums in the first place...

Re: Eowyn's Rohirrim and Friends
Rick, Steadfast Leader is very strong in a humans deck.
Not a human, but Terror of the Peaks and Purphoros, God of the Forge could be strong considerations.
You could probably go hard on hatebears and still get what you're needing out of the commander.

Re: Smeagol, Helping Himself to Your Precious Lands
How is the feeling when you knock someone out after having built your mana up withe their resources?
That's always been a concern of mine with decks that rely on theft / playing other people's spells.
