If someone puts all their eggs in one basket they have absolutely no basis for complaint when someone knocks that basket over. Part of building a successful deck is future proofing and allowing for contingencies. I personally experience no bad vibes whatsoever continually removing a commander like Marchesa, the Black Rose or similar.PrimevalCommander wrote: ↑4 years agoThe problem really is with commanders, like marchesa, who are very on/off.
I agree with this point. Though I have become a little more cold to players who play "ON-OFF" commanders that complain when their commander gets hated off the table. I tend to play decks with more resiliency and less All-In nature because of the removal heavy meta I grew up in. If you play a narrow commander and lean too hard into having it on the battlefield, you take a risk of getting shut off by removal. While there may be some feel-bads there, its not my sole responsibility to get overwhelmed in the name of fun.
