LMAO

#

LOL HE'S HERE

#

I FUCKING KNEW THEY'D PUT HIM IN THIS SHIT AT RARE

rigid scarab
#

Like

#

The reprints in this set are looking to be

#

Literally everything a commander player could ever ask for outside of reserved list

#

And therefore the price as to be sky high

#

Dammit

lusty trench
golden plover
#

It's like 25% great reprints, 25% good ones, 25% okay, 25% TERRIBLE

#

It's like they scientifically engineered this set to come out as average as possible

lusty trench
#

It's more 20% great reprints, 20% good, 20% okay, 20% terrible, 20% WHAT DO YOU MEAN THEY UPSHIFTED SMOTHERING TITHE AND SPELLSEAKER

golden plover
#

Don't forget about the [[Curtain Call]] cycle

lost widgetBOT
rigid scarab
#

So 20% maddening

golden plover
#

They're all in rare for some reason

rigid scarab
#

Or 20% infuriating

lusty trench
golden plover
#

They should have been uncommons here

#

But "the draft environment", which is a shitty excuse when sol ring is in the draft at uncommon

sleek ferry
#

Where the hell is the rare land cycle ffs

#

Show me ally fetch lands

golden plover
#

We're 100% not getting fetches

rigid scarab
#

Check Lands take it or leave it

golden plover
#

They would have revealed a fetch by now

lusty trench
sleek ferry
#

Idk, it took them forever to reveal the good mythics

lusty trench
#

Well curtal call specifically has

#

Also at rare

sleek ferry
#

Could jus the saving the best for last

golden plover
#

I'm pretty sure it's gonna be tango lands or battlebond lands

lusty trench
#

Let's goooo

sleek ferry
#

Triomes or ally fetches are on my wish list

#

Everything else besides collector ouphe and unwinding clock has been checked off my wish list

lusty trench
#

Ouphe doesn't even need a reprint

#

Card is what $3

sleek ferry
#

Yeah, I want it cheaper

golden plover
#

Triomes are definitely not happening

#

Draft has a "2 color focus"

#

So they wouldn't do triomes

sleek ferry
#

oh i just thought of one for the legend slot

#

magda

lusty trench

I know one for the legend slot

Multiple cards match “klauth”, can you be more specific?

#

oh, that one wont happen, too new

#

We have a card from new capenna in here

sleek ferry
#

a legends?

It's also DnD

Tooth and nail at rare is huge

sleek ferry
#

broooooo

#

steelshaper's gift is huge

fallow citrus
#

that steelshaper art sheesh

glad peak
#

I got hit with the biggest double standard in commander yesterday Hahaa

#

I wasn’t allowed to play a bad “storm” deck that relies on the table having stuff but my friend was allowed to play an actual storm deck with 10-30 min turns and was bashed for stopping an engine piece by the rest of the table cheems

sleek ferry
glad peak
#

Yep, and they were applauding him for doing a “cool thing” every turn when it was literally replay the same thing over and over again Hahaa

#

For 5-10 minutes each with his final turn being 30 minutes of him sitting and thinking if he has lethal

golden plover
#

Sounds like he also just didn't know his deck

atomic harness
golden plover
#

I play "storm" a lot, and unless you're forcing me to play out the combo, it's usually very quick turns. And final turn usually consists of "hey I've got combo, I assume that's good?"

#

When your storm count is high enough to kill the whole table, you don't need to be doing math

glad peak
#

He did, he was drawing and discarding a lot so he didn’t know if he had the win or not, or at least that was his excuse

#

But yeah I wasn’t able to play my normal deck because I just happened to kill everyone with a 6 card and 33 life combo ConcernedFroge

golden plover
#

What? You should still know if you can reach it

#

Either you're drawing the whole deck and have combo or you can't win that turn

#

I dunno, I'm just so used to pointing to the pieces on the board and going "that's lethal" because no one actually wants to sit there and watch me draw my whole deck and get a storm count of 50000

glad peak
#

Apparently he was trying to figure out how many cards he could draw on that turn and if he can draw into the win but it was kind of obvious so I just went outside to use the restroom and call

#

But yeah I already knew it was over but everyone else thought he wasn’t going to win

golden plover
#

I did actually have a guy make me play out the win in Elsha recently

#

That was annoying as hell

#

I pointed to top, helm, and Elsha and went "I think you're dead" and he went "play it out, I don't see it"

#

Explained how it kills and he went "but I wanna make sure you can do it"

#

It wasn't like dude was holding interaction or anything, he was just being an ass

glad peak
#

I should build four horsemen and spin my wheels indefinitely because apparently people in this group likes that kind of thing

golden plover
#

I should have manually done every draw

#

I did simply my drawing by flipping my deck upside down and searching for grapeshot in it

#

But he was being an ass and I should have made him watch me draw cards 5000 times

sleek ferry
glad peak
#

I was playing mono green because that was the only other deck available Hahaa

#

Not combo mono green either, elf tokens

#

Also bowmasters would’ve gotten them mad at me for “playing cedh”

golden plover
#

"Playing Cedh" has become such a weird phrase

glad peak
#

I like these guys as friends but wow when it comes to magic they’re insufferable

golden plover
#

People use it as a buzzword for any card they don't like

#

Counterspell? "dude this isn't cedh". Doom blade? "come on man, I said fun decks"

#

I really wanna build no wincon group hug kings, but I'll still get fussed at for kingmaking

glad peak
#

Yeah I got bashed like that when I removed one of his combo pieces

#

I played nbc najeela to show them the true meaning of combo and they didn’t like it because “it runs stax” 🤦‍♂️

sleek ferry
#

if somebody ever uses the phrase "playing cedh" in response to you playing a strong card, it's a clear sign they never actually played cedh

glad peak
#

They were ok with 1 card win cons and tutors for days but any removal = stax to them it’s absurd

golden plover
#

Oh yeah I haven't gotten to pull out Ghen in so long since I'm still searching for a new shop

rigid scarab
#

I have never once seen a "Strong card = cedh" person

sleek ferry
rigid scarab
#

The closest I saw that gets to that is "Wow that's a strong card/combo that guy's probably the threat"

glad peak
#

They’re less likely to be people who go to locals but still play and watch edh

rigid scarab
golden plover
#

I asked once and a guy went "you said stax?" Then flipped through the deck box without asking and then said "nah fuck that"

#

I need to find a shop around here that does cedh because I do wanna play stronger decks again lmao

sleek ferry
rigid scarab
#

I think it's perfectly fine to get miffed by deck archetypes

glad peak
#

“That guy’s probably the threat” is the logical way to politic but these guys really love to say “if you attack me with this 1/1, I’m going to target you all game”

sleek ferry
#

also i never realized till somebody pointed it out

rigid scarab
golden plover
#

I don't see how stax is worse than combo or the guys who do nothing for 16 turns but complain "I'm behind man" and then pop off

sleek ferry
#

but if you ever want to actually really learn some niche rules about mtg

#

cedh is the best way

#

to come across said rulings often

glad peak
#

Cedh is the best way to play edh*

rigid scarab
sleek ferry
#

well yeah, not even getting into that rn

#

but in terms of actually learning the game

#

cedh rules at that

glad peak
sleek ferry
#

even if I still get confused by like layers and shit like that

golden plover
rigid scarab
glad peak
#

He gets to do that but when I’m actually behind with 2 lands on turn 8, I’m still the target because “I’m playing storm”

golden plover
#

Mine is too, by not letting yours do that

rigid scarab
#

There are deck types that can very much still be viable threats despite a low land count

#

I wouldn't call storm one of them but

glad peak
golden plover
#

Honestly tho, cedh kinda is??

#

Edh with randoms is slowly becoming worse and worse imo

glad peak
#

The only argument the head of this group has against Cedh is the deck diversity

golden plover
#

No one wants to play interaction and then throws a fit when they lose

rigid scarab
#

cedh with randos is probably better than edh with randos

#

But I feel like there are several strawmen being made here

glad peak
#

But then again the problem with cedh right now is too many decks are good

golden plover
#

I mean, y'all remember the guy who would come to my old, mostly cedh playing shop, and would complain when he lost every game and then made his own banlist?

glad peak
rigid scarab
#

The cedh > edh thing tends to assume that edh players are like whiny crybabies, unlike the zen saints that are cedh players

golden plover
#

Oh I've definitely known som shitty cedh players

#

Played with a new dude once who would get mad anyone didn't do the play he perceived as "optimal'

glad peak
#

I’ve met tons of shitty ones but the fact of the matter is, if casual edh players really want a balanced gameplay experience they always say they do, cedh exists

golden plover
#

I feel like the issue is really most casual players wanna play "open mic night" magic

rigid scarab
#

Who wants to play edh for a balanced game

#

The whole point of threat assessment is that edh is unbalanced

golden plover
#

They wanna play their deck and they wanna see the combo or cute interaction or whatever

#

They don't want opponents to have interaction at all

glad peak
#

Idk, everyone I’ve talked to who plays edh says they want games to be balanced and yet they also want to pubstomp so 🤷‍♂️

rigid scarab
#

Where tf do you meet these people

#

What

glad peak
#

They’re friends or friends of friends

golden plover
#

Also cedh is way more pro proxy

#

And that's good because a good edh deck is way too expensive

glad peak
#

So when we mean kitchen table, we mean no/little lgs and mostly they only watch YouTube for edh content rather than playing against others

rigid scarab
#

Isn't that more on the players and not the format

golden plover
#

I've had dudes drop Kaladesh inventions and Gaea's cradles and complain that I had the audacity to run a proxied bazaar of Baghdad

rigid scarab
#

Like

glad peak
#

It’s probably just the players but I’ve also met too many people with the same experience at this point it’s just the format nyaruhodo

rigid scarab
#

Pretty much the only discernable thing I would say is a strict positive for cedh is that the players all have a very close understanding

#

Of 'This is a competitive game'

#

And then we get the cons any competitive format would bring

golden plover
#
  1. even if I owned a bazaar, shit would NEVER leave the house
  2. there's no reason for me to PROVE to you that I own a card
  3. it's no different that moving my demonic tutor between decks when I need to, something I see a lot of people do as is
  4. it's a card game man, I just wanna play with the good cards
glad peak
#

I would say though, edh would be better without the “casual” edh YouTube channels

golden plover
#

Yeah channels like game knights did a number to edh

#

I've literally had people come to shops and talk to the table like they're on game knights. It's weird as hell

rigid scarab
#

From "I would recommend proxies if you don't want to spend money on real cards"

#

To "You are stupid for spending money on real cards instead of proxying"

glad peak
#

I was trying to keep my options open with my wording but really it’s a problem with game knights ConcernedFroge

golden plover
rigid scarab
#

To give a more realistic experience

golden plover
#

I mean even the professor's edh show isn't super realistic either

sleek ferry
#

and you see this ALL the time in edh

golden plover
#

Like at least he does a lot of "edh, but here's a gimmick" for the episode (like commanders with 100 or less edhrec decks)

sleek ferry
#

people have 0 idea how to hold priority, how their cards work etc

rigid scarab
#

Maybe that's it

#

EDH draws in Tabletop players

golden plover
#

But it's clear they play a couple games and pick the best one

rigid scarab
#

CEDH draws in MTG players

sleek ferry
#

like there's nothing inherently wrong with playing casual edh (i play both)

glad peak
#

The gimmick episodes are good because at least they’re entertaining

sleek ferry
#

but casual players just lack an understanding that they sometimes take as an attack when you point it out to them

rigid scarab
golden plover
#

Yeah I like the gimmick ones because I'm not expecting everyone to come in and play regular edh

#

I wanna see what the best secret commander with 6 or more MV is

glad peak
#

Game knights style channels and episodes tend to trend more towards people getting mad at each other and then one guy applauding themselves for “doing something cool”

sleek ferry
#

When I say casual though, i should point out it means "commanders that are unviable in cedh but i make as strong as possible and play them in a casual environment"

#

but i also recognize when not to play certain commanders

golden plover
#

I mean what was that one game knights episode where they had the football guy on where he rage quit t2 because he got targeted?

rigid scarab
#

The one with the planeswalker commanders?

golden plover
#

I don't remember the exact context, but he got hit for a little bit of damage because his commander was the scariest at the table and then scooped on the spot

rigid scarab
#

Well he didn't scoop

sleek ferry
#

cassius?

#

he didnt scoop

rigid scarab
#

He just acted salty the rest of the game

sleek ferry
#

he clearly stopped trying though

golden plover
#

I still remember that game being super shitty

glad peak
golden plover
#

He comes off as an asshole

glad peak
#

If he doesn’t get everything his way then he tries to make the game unplayable

golden plover
#

It's funny, because Post seems like the opposite

rigid scarab
golden plover
#

Post Malone builds really bad, really expensive decks and does nothing all game but just has a good time

sleek ferry
#

in the phyrexia will be one episode, josh didn't destroy rachel's portal to phyrexia because the theme of the episode was that they were in phyrexia (stupid as fuck btw)

glad peak
#

Post seems ok tbh

golden plover
#

He's not the best player, but he at least seems like a fun dude

sleek ferry
#

Josh has toned down his decks way too much in current game knights also

meager isle
#

Sort of related, Brian Kibler’s reason why he doesn’t play cedh

glad peak
#

I should’ve played against cassius when he was at GPLA to just troll him

lusty trench
#

Zacama at rare is huge

sleek ferry
#

also cassius is into cedh now

rigid scarab
#

Cedh is vintage-lite

meager isle
#

Where is my fullart zacama

glad peak
#

He’s always been into cedh, he just never admitted to it because he wanted to play those decks at casual tables

rigid scarab
#

I definitely see Cassius as being the pubstomper

glad peak
#

(Yes there are a couple videos where he did this)

rigid scarab
#

Also btw chat

#

It's been hard to gauge but

#

We don't

#

Condone

#

Bringing cedh decks to edh pods right

golden plover
#

I mean he also has really weird takes defending stupid shit

#

"M30 boxes should actually cost MORE" was a fun one

glad peak
#

Early narset windfall or drama scepter tasigur in a durdle table are just examples of what he does

rigid scarab
golden plover
rigid scarab
#

Like being an NFT shill doesn't make you a bad magic player

#

And clearly Brian is infact a very good magic player

glad peak
#

Kibler’s a great competitor but that doesn’t make him the best anything else

rigid scarab
#

Who probably knows what he's talking about in terms of Magic gameplay

golden plover
#

There was one where he was playing with the prof and his wife, and someone else. And the prof did something super minor to his wife and he spent the rest of the game salt targeting him

#

It was really weird, he kept making comments like "don't disrespect my woman" and stuff

rigid scarab
#

Was that out of genuine salt

#

Or him just playing a silly character

golden plover
#

He seemed annoyed

#

Like it didn't seem like a bit because he did it literally all game

#

But it could have been? I don't know

sleek ferry
#

Also, there’s not much RELEVANT politicing in cedh outside of pointing out someone has x amount of mana open or “next turn x player will have 5 mana available to do y”

glad peak
#

Could’ve been a bit but if it was genuinely uncomfortable then the professor should’ve taken him to the side and talked to him

rigid scarab
#

But I guess it does do a job of

#

Representing what EDH games will realistically look like

golden plover
#

Yeah I dunno. I feel like they should have used another game where he didn't do it all game

sleek ferry
#

Professor is known to be an ass when it comes to cedh though

rigid scarab
#

As in no one doing anything for 6 turns and then someone popping off

golden plover
#

Because it just came off too much of him being a weird wife guy and holding a stupid grudge for no reason

rigid scarab
#

No one has removal

#

That guy wins

sleek ferry
#

Him and Blackneto aren’t cool for that reason

golden plover
#

I mean this wasn't a cedh game

sleek ferry
#

Because Blackneto used to bring strong edh decks to play

golden plover
#

It was just a regular game with Brian, his wife, someone else, and the prof

#

And Brian was just being shitty his wife got targeted all of once

rigid scarab
#

Was it on camera

golden plover
#

Yeah

rigid scarab
#

If it was on camera then he was very likely doing a bit

#

Mf has been a twitch streamer for a decade

golden plover
#

I don't remember the exact game and I don't know if other people had issues with it or not, but it just came off really weird to me

#

I dunno, doing a bit for like 1-2 turns is fine

meager isle
golden plover
#

It when it's your entire thing for the rest of the game after, it comes off as being a salty ass

rigid scarab
#

Like yeah the bit could have been overblown

glad peak
#

Tbh I don’t see kibler to be the type of person to genuinely pull out the “don’t disrespect my woman” thing

golden plover
#

It probably was him doing a bit, yeah

sleek ferry
#

I’ve already said it, but the play to win crew are guys I love to watch. Besides that, Kyle Hill is usually fun, spike feeders are fine, Brian and Olivia are fine in commander at home also

golden plover
#

But I guess it just annoyed me that he didn't know when to drop the bit

sleek ferry
#

Game knights might be bottom of the barrel edh content atm tbh

glad peak
#

Not because he doesn’t like his wife but because he’s not really the type to act like a tough guy at least from what I’ve seen

meager isle
#

There was a cedh tournament where a player tried to priority bully in finals but lost. It got a lot of talk going iirc on the concept

rigid scarab
glad peak
#

Sometimes yep

golden plover
#

Yeah play to win is genuinely pretty decent at it

glad peak
#

Other times they bring a weaker deck to the pod for testing

sleek ferry
#

Play to win is cedh when everybody at the table actually knows what their cards do

glad peak
#

But they’re also very good at showing how diverse cedh is

#

Also they have their pet decks of course

sleek ferry
#

Also yeah, usually they test the 4 most relevant legendaries from each set in cedh

golden plover
#

I mean most people who play cedh have dumb pet decks

sleek ferry
#

And see if it’s viable

golden plover
#

Like I've got a very optimized Roghark Yoshimaru list

#

It's definitely not a standard cedh commander

#

But the deck is FUN

glad peak
sleek ferry
#

Yeah kinnan is Tyler’s pet deck

#

Magda is cam’s pet deck

rigid scarab
#

I'll definitely play some cedh games, maybe even make a list IRL but I don't see it becoming my main format

glad peak
#

Tbf those are very fun decks

rigid scarab
#

cEDH tournaments especially just really don't sound appealing to me

#

It's like playing competitive mafia to me

golden plover
#

A lot of cedh tournaments are weird to me

#

Half the big ones don't allow proxies

#

Which is like, I get it, but also it becomes pay to win at that point

rigid scarab
#

Like if I wanted to play at a competitive magic tournament

#

Fuck dude I'm playing Magic

#

Just go play Pioneer or something

sleek ferry
#

I feel as if I would have done Cassius’ cedh tournament, but not any other. The prizing has to be appealing enough

rigid scarab
#

Just by its concept

glad peak
#

Cedh tournaments are alright, I don’t like it but the format’s fun so

rigid scarab
#

Why would I want to go to a tournament where everyone has to have the basis of 'OK no one fuck up'

meager isle
rigid scarab
#

Like is there any penalisation to someone who 'Doesn't obey the cedh code'

sleek ferry
#

Also the fact that teferi won cassius’ cedh tournament is still crazy to me

rigid scarab
#

Of course not

#

So you can just get fucked by someone making a salty spite play

#

Which can definitely still happen in cedh

meager isle
#

Yeah 3rd and 4th player having the ability to play kingmaker kind of hampers it but generally people don’t do that

golden plover
#

Sick new art

#

But OOF

#

@lusty trench I think this is the most egregious upshift now

lusty trench
#

Nah tithe still takes the cake for me

rigid scarab
#

A tournament with 3 opponents just increases those odds

golden plover
#

Oh I was wrong, it's like $25

#

Still a bad upshift when it got printed last year at rare

rigid scarab
#

Also to me there are some cedh players who give off big "No Items, Fox Only, Final Destination" vibes

#

I know Rebell does it ironically but

glad peak
#

Tbh those players are also the ones who say “the only real cedh decks are najeela, blue farm, and rogsi” and they’ll get eaten up by random decks

golden plover
#

Ayy Zacama got a downshift at least

glad peak
#

But that’s also what rebell says ironically nyaruhodo

#

Wait I think we found the common link cheems

rigid scarab
#

Maybe magic players just suck

glad peak
#

I love rebell but you gots to go NyanGun

rigid scarab
#

New plan

#

Let's all hunt down rebell

golden plover
#

Someone help me settle an argument with a friend: if my opponent plays [[+2 Mace]] can I call a judge, ask for gatherer text, and give them a DQ because technically no magic card exists by that name?

lost widgetBOT
golden plover
#

(Gatherer has an issue with the name of the card and thus it's not in the system. Technically meaning there's not a magic card by that name)

rigid scarab
#

Uh not a magic judge but

#

No?

golden plover
#

It'd definitely be sharking in bad faith, but gatherer is the database used for all official cards

rigid scarab
#

The response you would probably be given is "Yeah Gatherer's weird. Continue."

sleek ferry
#

where's zacama's side profile

#

would be funny if they just did his eye because he's too big

rigid scarab
#

It's just one dinosaur head

rigid scarab
sleek ferry
#

is she?

#

how can you tell

rigid scarab
#

"Zacama was not intelligent per se, but she was somehow aware that she had a name, and was able to inform Huatli of what it was through their magical connection."

#

Also can't you tell just by looking at her

#

I mean when I see Zacama I think 'woman'

lusty trench
#

Oh wow I hate how they made the "strixhaven star" text the same as the rules text

#

I legit had to double take it

glad peak
#

Goad all creature you don’t control, Strixhaven Star

lusty trench
#

I was like did I miss a mechanic

rigid scarab
#

Goad all creatures you don't control.

Strixhaven Star

rigid scarab
#

Strixhaven Star fucking tore through pauper like paper machet

golden plover
#

Technicially it is grammatically correct to do that

lusty trench
#

It is but it's also bad for reading at a glance

golden plover
#

True

golden plover
#

...And Dockside has been crunched out

meager isle
#

Another year without dockside in my deck

glad peak
#

Another year without deckside in my dock

lusty trench
#

Another side without a dockdeck in my year

rigid scarab
#

Another dock without a yeardeck in my side

Cheaper dinosaur cards?

#

Very pog

golden plover
#

Another deck without sideyear in my dock

golden plover
#

We knew it was coming but great to see it confirmed and not upshifted

sleek ferry
#

So the entire cycle now give us a good land cycle

granite badge
#

tbh I don't like CEDH

#

for the sole reason that it simply isn't the way I wanna play MTG as a whole

#

MTG's comp scenes have never been compelling enough to me to get me to try them, at most I tried brewing some jank ass Magda build on arena a few years back but that's virtually it

fallow citrus
#

aight

lusty trench
#

It's second printing in a commander product this year

#

(hosts of Mordor was the other)

golden plover
#

Who wants it?

lusty trench
#

Literally no one

golden plover
#

I hope it's not the full cycle minus prime titan

lusty trench
#

Can't be prime

#

Ah shit misunderstood

golden plover
#

But it honestly might be because the colorless precon has the colorless titan

lusty trench
#

There's a colourless titan?

#

Oh sundering

golden plover
#

Nah, Gavin said a proper colorless member to a few cycles in the eldrazi precon

#

The Titans are
"keyword (or fire breathing/ward)
~ ETB and attacks trigger"

lusty trench
#

It's gonna be annihilator equivalent

#

Key word is like... Trample?

fallow citrus
#

yeah

copper pecan
#

i really doubt it's gonna be annihilator

#

iirc maro has said that annihilator is probably never going to come back because it feels horrible to play against and is also extremely powerful

#

even annihilator 1 can win you the game if your opponent can't deal with it right away

lusty trench
#

What else does colourless do though

#

Mana filtering?

My brother who just got into Magic is bummed out by Commander Masters for like

#

The most out there reason I could imagine

#

Not because it's overpriced or the card he wants didn't get reprinted

#

But because the set is all reprints and no new cards

zinc shard
#

Ah yes, Master sets are well known for introducing new cards

sudden lava
#

commander precons will have new stuff at least

rigid scarab
#

I think he's too Hearthstone-pilled to see the value in reprint sets

Four more bulk rares coming right up

And an uncommon ig

golden plover

Oh he's been rare for 95% of his prints

#

So I've started playing Standard to try and raise my rank.

Idk if I'm just being salty, but it feels like there's an obnoxious amount of removal most games

Then again I keep getting paired against Black decks

nah it's not just you, this standard has a lot of removal in it

#

best deck is currently control even

just play a permanentless deck

Can't get removed if there's nothing to remove

dense berry

i got my friend to cancel his preorder

this set is a garbage fire

rigid scarab

Yeah dont preorder this

#

At least wait for prices to drop on release

they cant keep getting away with it

#

35 cent secret lairs

#

a masters set filled with upshifts of cards worth pennies

1000 dollar proxy packs

EDH was fun today @fallow citrus had a couple of duels commander games and a wacky 6man pod w my friend

I got to cast karn, scion of urza's "ult* a lot, esper sentinel got up to 15/15 because of nettlecyst, lots of chunky menace construct action

for the 6 man I stopped a lot of game ending spells w my counters and killed two ppl but just fell a little short at the end, all good though

Hints about the new commander precon cards

#
  1. There is a card that is not a planeswalker but enters with loyalty counters
  2. There is a new card with the adamant ability from Throne of Eldraine
  3. There is a card that can become a legendary 6/6 Nightmare God creature with menace and deathtouch.
  4. The colorless deck isn't just Eldrazi - for example, there's a new colorless Ikoria monster, and a new Strixhaven Archaic too!
  5. There's a card I loved that was originally designed for Commander 2018 and cut that finally shows up here
  6. There's a new titan, modeled after the M11 Titans
  7. There's a card that turns planeswalkers into birds
  8. There's a new impetus in the vein of the ones we original saw in Ikoria Commander
  9. There's a legendary card for an obscure flavor text character we saw in Time Spiral Block
  10. There is a card named "Guff Rewrites History"
  11. There's a legendary creature that makes you choose a planeswalker type.
  12. There is a mono blue planeswalker that has never gotten a card before - and no, its not one of the nine titans.
copper pecan
#

oh good they're finally giving cacophany a card

sudden lava
#

none of these feel like they would fit for the slither commander deck

trail anvil
#

man glad to see adamant again, I really wish that mechanic was standard playable

golden plover
#

I think Adamant is a really good idea if you push it way harder

#

Constructed needs reasons to make mono-color decks that aren't just burn

copper pecan
#

the problem with adamant is that you need to cost it as thought the adamant mode is always on for constructed

golden plover
#

Yeah, so push them

copper pecan
#

but in constructed you could just put three pips in the cost anyways so you don't need adamant to force monocolor

#

the non-adamant mode might as well not be there

#

and at that point why bother with the mechanic

golden plover
#

That's not necessarily true with how much fixing there is

#

Stuff like [[Invoke Despair]] was played in standard without being mono-black

lost widgetBOT
golden plover
#

Treasures and good lands make it too easy

copper pecan
#

see that's the problem though

#

in formats with good mana fixing adamant isn't an even remotely difficult hoop to jump through, so it might as well always be active

#

the restriction doesn't matter

lusty trench
#

Do we have the full set for commander masters revealed or is there a few more to go?

golden plover
#

I guess retool adamant as a more punisher mechanic

#

Something like "then if you control no non-X lands"

hidden ermine
#

Adamant is basically a limited mechanic

#

We get those a fair bit

trail anvil
#

imo mana fixing is normally a better conversation than it was with stuff like fable

#

also there definitely is a way to do a base mode with a decent payoff then an adamant payoff with a better outcome

granite badge
#

Admant has always felt like a mechanic that rewarded you, not was a downside

#

Idt it needs to be pushed too hard to be relavent

fallow citrus
#

it's such an irrelevant keyword though

#

it literally just slightly rewards you for paying the correct mana

twilit canyon
#

yea adamant is weird

fallow citrus
#

I feel like if they never brought it back nobody would care

copper pecan
fallow citrus
#

it's like I don't think anyone would be desperate for coven to come back

golden plover
#

Yeah Coven was kinda a nothing mechanic

#

So according to number crunch, there's a single rate cycle for lands we can get

#

@sleek ferry it's Battlebond lands

#

I fucking called it

#

Also Edgar is crunched out???

#

Literally the perect set to put him in

meager isle

lmao

#

why doesn't wizard like reprinting him

I mean isn't Ur dragon in the set with like

#

2-3 other dragons?

copper pecan
#

true

lusty trench
#

That are also in the rare or higher slot

trail anvil
#

I still think adamant could be used along similar lines to kicker

I feel so sorry for the LGS' that still have the coven precon in stock at like $15

But like, CommandZone also fits the description

#

and Shuffleup and Play

copper pecan
#

the eldrazi one is the one i'm most interested in. colorless can do anything at high enough costs so i have no idea what to expect with that one

atomic harness
twilit canyon
#

god damn do i hate reminder text lol

sudden lava
#

good thing this says hand

twilit canyon
#

why

dense berry
#

if it didnt then it would cascade chain

#

tbh i dont think they needed to worry about that due to the nature of cascade

#

like sure you could cascade a blightsteel into a kozilek and then cascade again

#

but theres also the chance that the blightsteel cascades into a sol ring

zinc shard
#

"Then do it again" is one of the funnest lines of reminder text I've seen

dense berry
#

its a terrible line imo

#

even if its funny

copper pecan
#

what's wrong with it?

#

i think it does a good job of getting across what the card is supposed to do

dense berry
#

i think its confusing since they dont need to explain that you do it again

#

its literally just two cascades

#

you only need the reminder text for cascade

#

its also not super intuitive as to whether or not the second cascade resolves before or after the first cascaded spell

twilit canyon
#

i can imagine new players would think cascade does it twice

#

baseline

dense berry
#

the mechanic makes you question does the stack look like (top down = filo) this:

Maelstrom Wanderer
Cascade
Cascade

or does it look like

Maelstrom Wanderer
Cascade
Cascaded Spell put on stack
Cascade

#

and these are very different

atomic harness
dense berry
#

in the first instance the second cascade trigger fully resolves and puts a spell on the stack which resolves before resolving the first cascade

#

in the second instance all three spells will end up on the stack at the same time

#

(it works like the first instance for reference)

atomic harness
#

But unfort its probably needed there since it's confusing otherwise

#

yo loot nyaruhodo

dense berry
#

yo

atomic harness
#

were ults introduced with initial walkers or did it take a while? or how come not all walkers have ults

dense berry
#

they were all on the lorwyn walkers

#

garruk famous for his ult that was usable after one turn

#

im not sure the flavor reasons for some walkers to not have an ult

#

but its decent design space

atomic harness
#

yeah makes sense, my favorite walker rn thats been carrying me doesnt have an ult either

dense berry
#

narset?

atomic harness
#

Scion of Urza nyaruhodo

#

but narset and t3f have been good too yeah

dense berry
#

karn great creator is the best walker ever imo

atomic harness
#

I need a gc karn too tbh

dense berry
#

war walkers were a mistake

atomic harness
#

I think so too yeah how come half of them are randomly walking floodgates

#

Ashiok narset tef karn

dense berry
#

so my theory about it is that the war of the spark set was the first set designed around mtga

#

there had been other sets added to mtga before but iirc war was the first rotation

#

the set was designed in essence to force the standard metagame into more of a midranged value slog

atomic harness
#

interesting

dense berry
#

and floodgates are good for mobile game structures due to lowering the skill gap for new players to be able to beat more experienced players

atomic harness
#

how does karn gc work in commander by the way, do I just pull out my binder

dense berry
#

it doesnt work since sheldon is a hypocrite

#

for a solid decade the commander website said that wishes worked but talk to your group about the specifics of where your wishes pull from

#

i actually had a very memorable game where my brother put his entire box of eldrazi commons and uncommons from rise of the eldrazi onto the table with a spawnsire

#

but sometime around like 2016 i think they updated the rules to say wishes dont work

atomic harness
#

Does that mean karn gc just has the floodgate and animate then MonkaNervous

dense berry
#

yes

atomic harness
#

Well thats a shame

dense berry
#

and its still the best planeswalker in cedh

atomic harness
#

oo I guess cucking treasures is huge

dense berry
#

i got shitted on by a karn just yesterday actually

#

should have played around it

atomic harness
#

I ran into ashiok last weekend, didnt hurt too much since I dont search or do gy stuff

#

so I left it alone nyaruhodo

dense berry
#

ashiok is also goated

#

reid duke once said he would consider taking ashiok over a power 9 in power cube

#

or maybe it was mengucci idr but somebody Branded in Jund

atomic harness
#

nyaruhodo do I just get all the gross WAR walkers and play it in my deck

#

tef ashiok narset karn, im 2/4 so far w tef narset

#

my walkers dont really get punched because the fat constructs block hard

#

my tef stayed alive for like 6 turns

dense berry
#

teferi is funny enough pretty awful in commander

atomic harness
#

I guess it depends on the table right
I played it when the baral guy was tapped out and he just died inside

dense berry
#

it turns off the tables interaction

atomic harness
#

Its ok i have the most copium

dense berry
#

which usually means the person you pass to just wins

atomic harness
#

But yeah I noticed that too lmao so I dont actually use it tht much

#

Narset and Ashi should be good though right

dense berry
#

yeah they're pretty good

#

you have to really be able to protect them though

#

since commander has gotten so heavily creature based

atomic harness
#

you can count on me nyaruhodo

dense berry
atomic harness
#

oh also I got esper sentinel up to 15/15 the other day jigglepog

#

the table was like "holy sht just draw man"

but it sounds hilarious

Oh you can do that?

Seeing this list, I'm worried for the other three

lusty trench
#

Nah $150 precons can't have value in it

#

$200 precons were such a bad idea tbh cause for £80 you could easily destroy all of these precons

sleek ferry
#

I'd be less worried about the other 3 only because the sliver deck was never going to have much actual reprint value outside of the actual slivers

Note that they already said it's not an "eldrazi precon"

#

It's a "big colorless cards precon"

And most of them just so happen

To be eldrazi

You're paying $100 for this, you think we can give you EXPENSIVE cards?

#

Nah, you'll get enough cards that it's just a bit of value, making it technically worth it

sleek ferry
#

it's not even unprecedented for them to give us good reprints in these precons

lusty trench
#

I can't remember the last amazing reprint in a commander precon

#

There's been good ones for sure

rigid scarab
#

How are we judging amazing

#

Toxic Deluge and Reanimate were pretty sweet

#

And Swan Song

meager isle
#

You could probably count the number of meaningful reprints of cards above $20 or so on your hands

#

No smothering at mythic isn’t meaningful

golden plover
#

I think Jeska's Will when it was like $45 was the last truly "great" precon reprint

#

They know the value of precons gets carried by the new cards even when they suck

Oh shit are we only getting 1 deck reveal a day?

in which world tree or realm breaker enables combo

I don't think she's really worth it tbh

rigid scarab
#

Speaking of combos

sudden lava
#

it's an interesting twist on a tribal commander, that's about it

rigid scarab
#

I was wondering which is the card in mtg involved in the most combos

#

Cards like

#

Kiki-Jikki

#

Scurry Oak

twilit canyon
#

kiki

#

oak is involved in trash combos that arent viable anywhere really

#

kiki has been involved in combos longer than a lot of current players have been alive

Kiki-Jiki is older than me monkaGIGA

[[thassa’s oracle]]

Creature — Merfolk Wizard
When Thassa's Oracle enters the battlefield, look at the top X cards of your library, where X is your devotion to blue. Put up to one of them on top of your library and the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order. If X is greater than or equal to the number of cards in your library, you win the game. (Each manau in the mana costs of permanents you control counts toward your devotion to blue.)

Thoracle has been the poster child of every 'draw deck' combo

Devoted Druid needs any +1/+1 outlet for infinite mana
