Nothing really we want for sacrifice synergies for lands though, considering you typically also don't run many creature sacrifice outlets.

cinder pecan
#

well...

tulip moon
#

I mean it depends on deck builder to deck builder, but in the precon I mean.

river hawk
#

I'm looking at it from a [[Moraug, Fury of Akoum]] standpoint.

"There won't be an additional main phase after the additional combat phase. For example, if the landfall ability resolves twice during your postcombat main phase, you'll get two consecutive additional combat phases after your main phase (untapping your creatures at the beginning of each), followed by your ending phase."

Am I wrong in thinking in X is 10, I would get 10 combat phases?

tight steepleBOT
cinder pecan
#

you sure would

river hawk
#

Not to mention landfall triggers from other permanents.

tulip moon
#

You gotta make sure you do it after your regular combat though.

#

Otherwise you'll miss your regular combat.

river hawk
#

"If the landfall ability resolves during your precombat main phase, the additional combat phase will happen before your regular combat phase. You'll untap creatures you control at the beginning of the additional combat but not at the beginning of your regular combat."

tulip moon
#

Yup. You'll get your regular combat, but your attackers will be tapped still (unless they had Vigi or whatever).

river hawk
#

I see what you're saying

tulip moon
#

It's a simple thing to remember once you know it.

river hawk
#

How does people feel about [[Altar of the Brood]]?

tight steepleBOT
river hawk
#

(When I'm at the table, I have no friends >.> )

nova ore
#

Its cool, but too slow, but then, I should be clear, Im not a fan of aggressive mill strategies in a format where everyone starts with 100 cards, unless you pair it with something like everytime someone mills a card they lose 1 life, or similar.

Trying to chew through 100 cards just to win on milling, too slow

#

other reason I dont love it, is there are a lot of graveyard shenanigans in commander, and a lot of times your accelerating those decks

tepid lintel
#

Yeah it seems awful

nova ore
#

I think the best Ive pulled off in hearthhull was like 26ish permanents in a turn, so barely a quarter of a deck

#

and tbh I won that turn because of the 2 damage from hearthhull anyways

river hawk
#

Thats fair. Maybe I won't include it.

tepid lintel
#

I think the only mill card that is good as a sole mill card in a deck is [[mesmeric orb]] and I wouldn't run it here probably

tight steepleBOT
nova ore
#

yeah, mesmeric orb is solid

#

but we would be likely to mill ourselves to death, since we are already burning through the deck pretty hard

tepid lintel
#

Yeah

river hawk
#

hmm.... that gives me an idea for another deck I have. Woin't discuss here, obviously. But thanks for the Orb suggestion!

jade glen
#

Guys

#

Are we still on braida

#

Arisen nightmare

#

Or is she too slow

tepid lintel
#

Ya

jade glen
#

Should I also

#

Consider golgari grave troll

#

Also are you guys running boardwipes or no

#

And which ones

cinder pecan
#

I have life from the loam in my deck

jade glen
#

but idk if i need more dredge

#

liek dakmore

#

and troll

cinder pecan
#

I actually cut dakmor from mine

#

I didn’t lean more into filling my yard as much

tepid lintel
#

I also don't really fill my yard

#

I get plenty of lands in there from the battlefield

jade glen
#

do i run toxic deluge or nah

#

i feel like

#

im alwasy super low life

#

cuz i tend to fetch alot

jade glen
#

Guys

#

Should I put etali in this deck

#

I’m running strans of night

#

And susur which means I can sac it

#

Probably not

#

Wait no it’s bad

#

Nvm

jade glen
#

im at 103 cards now

#

idk what to do

tepid lintel
#

Just play with 103 and see if anyone notices

cinder pecan
nova ore
jade glen
#

Everyone tells me this

#

And I’m like

#

I never feel bad drawing so many lands

nova ore
#

well, thats fair

#

this wont help either, but Ive started running [[hew the entwood]] to have a second version of Nahiri

tight steepleBOT
#

Sorcery
Sacrifice any number of lands. Reveal the top X cards of your library, where X is the number of lands sacrificed this way. Choose any number of artifact and/or land cards revealed this way. Put all nonland cards chosen this way onto the battlefield, then put all land cards chosen this way onto the battlefield tapped, then put the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order.

jade glen
#

What do I cut for [[exsanguinate]]

tight steepleBOT
jade glen
#

Do I drop torment?

jade glen
#

Cuz I can just replay all my lands

nova ore
#

sure, but Im going for the combo kill off it, not continuing the game

jade glen
#

Typically I have enough fuel to end the game

nova ore
#

Im also running more deals damage when sac/play things then you are

#

like tannuk and sabotender

jade glen
#

I mostly just set up for my big turns a lot

nova ore
#

so If Im popping nahiri or hew, thats game

jade glen
#

And less land pings

nova ore
#

thats fair

jade glen
#

I just noticed in my pod when I play a tannuk or a sabotender people just start focusing me really hard

nova ore
#

tbh Ive never been a fan of torment, by the time you have the mana to really use it, its usually only effective against 1 of the players at the table, most of the rest have small hands from dumping out cards for some aggro strat

#

I usually drop tannuk or sabo on the turn Im comboing off, I dont put them out till then

jade glen
#

As people remove my commander when I fully stationed him

#

That’s why I wanna run both

nova ore
#

thats fair, but I think exsanquinate works for that too, or you could run [[professor onyx]] but that does take buildup

tight steepleBOT

Legendary Planeswalker — Liliana
Magecraft — Whenever you cast or copy an instant or sorcery spell, each opponent loses 2 life and you gain 2 life.
+1: You lose 1 life. Look at the top three cards of your library. Put one of them into your hand and the rest into your graveyard.
−3: Each opponent sacrifices a creature with the greatest power among creatures that player controls.
−8: Each opponent may discard a card. If they don't, they lose 3 life. Repeat this process six more times.
Loyalty: 5

jade glen
#

What do I drop tho

nova ore
#

oh right, we need less cards not more

cinder pecan
#

How many lands are you on now?

jade glen
#

Maybe a crucible of world?

nova ore
#

42

cinder pecan
#

Okay

jade glen
cinder pecan
#

Id stay there

#

That’s where Im at

nova ore
#

yeah I dont run crucible, just conduit, because you have enough play from gy effects

jade glen
#

I’m running both crucible and ranumap since I am on a lot more off color fetches

cinder pecan
#

I have a lot of the conduit of worlds effects, except for crucible because it does nothing else

nova ore
#

right

cinder pecan
#

(And its more expensive)

nova ore
#

yeah crucible being single effect is why it didnt make my list

jade glen
#

It does nothing by itself when my board gets wiped

cinder pecan
#

I have icetill, ramunap, walk-in closet, and conduit

#

On top of szarel

nova ore
#

I am still running szarel to

jade glen
cinder pecan
#

So i have 5 of them

nova ore
#

it looks like Flowers dropped szaerel

cinder pecan
#

Plus a couple splendid rec effects

jade glen
#

I only am on 3

#

I would like another one

nova ore
#

you could drop the graveyard creature recursion stuff and get your slots, cut entomb, eternal witness, strands of night and your at 100

jade glen
#

Maybe I do put szarel back in?

cinder pecan
#

Maybe

jade glen
#

Entomb is so good imo

cinder pecan
#

It is

#

Do you have a crop rot in this?

jade glen
#

I love entomb for a life from the loam

nova ore
#

yes

jade glen
#

I do

cinder pecan
#

Okah

#

Good

jade glen
#

I also entomb for stuff to strands with

#

And strands helps me when I just dredge myself

#

Or surviel stuff to the grave

#

It also helps me recur lumra

cinder pecan
#

Tbf I don’t dredge outside of Loam

#

That’s the only one I’m on

jade glen
nova ore
#

to me, the graveyard recursion, beyond playing lands is usually win more, I dont need it to close the game

cinder pecan
jade glen
#

I am on like

#

No interactions

#

I guess I cut scute swarm?

nova ore
#

Hm, Im not sure about [[nissa, resurgent animist]]

tight steepleBOT
nova ore
#

I wouldnt cut scute swarm, that is an alternate win con

jade glen
nova ore
#

Ive won games on having 128 scute tokens

jade glen
#

No like

#

Nissa is insane

#

She stations hearthhull at worse

#

And at best she is lotus cobra that also gets me Titania

#

Or lumra

#

Or avenger of zendikar

nova ore
#

Hm, true, Im not running most of those

jade glen
#

Or aftermath

#

I guess I cut ranumap

nova ore
#

but I also never feel like I need mana, most games a few turns in I have play up to 3-4 lands per turn

#

Id cut crucible before ramunap explorer

#

ramunap can station and block

jade glen
#

Maybe I run szarel

#

Over both

nova ore
#

you could

jade glen
#

But 5 mana is alotttt

nova ore
#

not in this deck

jade glen
#

It’s like

nova ore
#

heck Im beginning to think my deck needs to be in b4 because it wins so fast

jade glen
#

Competing with things like

#

Korvold

#

Guys

#

I just read szarel

#

Why does he not put it on himself

#

I have no way of making this thing big

nova ore
#

you dont need to, think about if your saccing multiple lands your getting 2 * those lands on something

jade glen
#

I guess I can station more thing with him in it

#

I just wanna run exsanguinate cuz I just find myself losing life from peoplr throwing spells at me

#

It’s a way to pad my life total

#

Maybe I cut [[six]] ?

tight steepleBOT
jade glen
#

Thoughts?

nova ore
#

you know its funny, I added Six, but everytime I draw him, Im like ok whats this really get me right now

jade glen
#

That’s what I’m saying

#

I’m like

#

I have instants and sorcery in my grave

#

I can’t really use him past that

nova ore
#

yeah and most of the time I dont need to recur any of that stuff

jade glen
#

I guess we cut six?

#

@cinder pecan

#

What interactions should I run

#

I was either thinking, deadly rolick

#

Fell from profane

#

Deflecting swat

#

Or a beast within

nova ore
#

I just realized you have crucible in deck and maybeboard lol

jade glen
#

I

#

Yeah

#

I also have like

#

No boardwipes

cinder pecan
nova ore
#

tbh most of the time I just try to stay under the radar till Im ready to combo out

jade glen
#

Wait how am I b4

#

Also my group plays a lot of creature removal so playing things like tannuk doesn’t like a lot

#

Like I get elesh norn mother of machines

#

A lot

nova ore
# jade glen Wait how am I b4

synergy and card power level your running is gonna push you more towards 4, or at least high 3, but if your playgroup is playing stuff like that in 3 then it makes sense that your building this way

jade glen
#

We fall into strong b3 for most games

#

Not super optimized but higher power

jade glen
#

My stuff came in todayyy

nova ore
#

nice

#

I have the final fantasy azusa, but if I didnt Id have ordered that one

#

[[princess serah]]

tight steepleBOT
#

No card found for “princess serah”

nova ore
jade glen
#

Guys

#

So I push my hearthhull deck to be

#

B4

#

Nahhh

#

I was considering running like

#

[[culling ritual]]

tight steepleBOT
nova ore
#

I dont think it works with the deck, since it would kill hearthhull plus anything you had to station it

nova ore
#

well unless your using it before you put those out, and I find that buildup in the deck is important

cinder pecan
#

I guess im not sure how it kills hearthull

nova ore
#

oh mana value 2 or less, somehow I missed that

cinder pecan
#

Yeah

#

Not 4 or less

nova ore
#

nm, Im daft, toss it in, nuke the token guy

cinder pecan
#

Well…

#

Hearthull is kinda a token guy

nova ore
#

true

jade glen
#

Nuke urself

#

And rebuild the token

#

Ez

#

Now I net all the mana

jade glen
#

He’s so cute

#

Just got him for hearthhull

tepid lintel
#

Aww he's so cuuute

#

I haven't been playing much Hearthhull because I've been loving my gonti deck

#

But Windgrace is real good

nova ore
# jade glen

I love that windgrace art, reminds me of all the black cats in anime

jade glen
#

Yessss

cinder pecan
jade glen
#

I’m working on blinging out this deck

#

It will be my little baby

tepid lintel
#

Such a cute kitty

tardy hare
cinder pecan
#

Welcome in

tardy hare
#

happy to be here

jade glen
#

Ngl I feel like crop rot

#

Should be taken off the gc

tepid lintel
#

It's very very strong

jade glen
#

cuz i wanan run

#

underworrld breach as well

#

and keep the deck a b3

cinder pecan
#

I say that politely

jade glen
#

dang it

digital sinew
#

I didnt even know this thread existed

cinder pecan
#

Ye yeeee

tepid lintel
#

Me neither

cinder pecan
digital sinew
#

Tossing my list

#

I find this commander to be kinda too good

cinder pecan
#

Hearthull is very good

digital sinew
#

I find myself setting up for a one turn kill on the board

#

Is this like the way to go?

tepid lintel
#

That's mostly what I do

#

Since there's a lot of mass sacrifice stuff

digital sinew
#

I also like sacking my lands one by one

nova ore
tepid lintel
#

Are you running depletion lands?

nova ore
# digital sinew I find myself setting up for a one turn kill on the board

Ive mostly optimized around 1 turn kill with [[hew the entwood]] [[sabotender]] [[tannuk, memorial ensign]] I still run baloths and scute swarm for alternatives, but almost always Im going for the 1 turn kill, hopefully with nahiri, but Ive gotten it with god eternal bontu and zuran orb as well

tight steepleBOT
#

Sorcery
Sacrifice any number of lands. Reveal the top X cards of your library, where X is the number of lands sacrificed this way. Choose any number of artifact and/or land cards revealed this way. Put all nonland cards chosen this way onto the battlefield, then put all land cards chosen this way onto the battlefield tapped, then put the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order.

jade glen
#

Tbh field of the dead being a gc is also weird

nova ore
#

no it isnt lol, field of the dead is pretty crazy in the right shell

#

but yeah, glacial chasm and field of the dead, for example are reasons why crop rot is a gc, because it can tutor them

#

fun story, a couple of those combos are only 1 card away from being in hearthull

digital sinew
tepid lintel
#

[[hickory woodlot]] and such

tight steepleBOT
tepid lintel
#

Total bangers

digital sinew
digital sinew
#

By using fetches and stuff

nova ore
tepid lintel
#

fotd kinda fits anywhere too, with very low opportunity cost

#

Sure it's better in landfall decks, but you could put it literally anywhere and be happy

digital sinew
#

I’m also on the silly tempt with discovery for free Marit Lage

nova ore
#

most of the field of the dead combos dont even need landfall

tepid lintel
#

I think I prefer the removal one

digital sinew
#

How do we feel about dryad arbor

nova ore
#

Ive gone back and forth on it a bunch

#

we dont really have much to do with it, would require sticking in several more cards to really leverage it

cinder pecan
cinder pecan
digital sinew
#

Im in the 0 gc gang

#

Well deflecting swat was a recent inclusion

nova ore
#

Im running just crop rotation for a land sac and landfall effect

cinder pecan
#

I run it also for the instant speed gy hate, removal/protection, and the ramp and sac trigger

jade glen
#

im just greedy and want underworld breach as well so i can shifting woodland into it

#

but at that point

#

just run six

nova ore
#

or at that point, just run bracket 4 lol

jade glen
#

people say my list is b4

#

i feel like it still feels like a b3

#

it doesnt win super fast

#

usually around t6

cinder pecan
#

remember, 3 gcs isn't a fully rigid restriction

if you feel like your deck is still fitting of the Upgraded bracket even with a 4th GC that's fine

jade glen
#

Wait

#

This is really good

#

In this deck

cinder pecan
#

It depends

#

If your deck does like to do a lot of direct putting lands into the bin, its okay.

If you wanna get lands into the bin via sacrifice effects, its less impressive

tepid lintel
#

Seems okay

jade glen
#

It’s realms uncharted

#

But it puts them into play

#

I might remove realms u charted for this

tepid lintel
#

I like putting lands onto the battlefield

jade glen

If u are searching for like boseju

But if u want mount doom

This is literally a find 4 lands if you have any play from grave

#

I like it

#

idk what to slot it in for

Could be funny

#

I just love suddenly killing the table off with [[rain of filth]]

#

Hm, rain of filth seems fun

I love how Ive been playing this deck for months, and Im still finding cards I want to put in

Ohh just blind

Its okay

#

Its also not in scryfall yet

jade glen
#

it loosk fun

#

i wanna test it out

tepid lintel
#

Yeah I like it

normal raft
#

That looks mighty tasty for muerra too

#

What’s the breakpoint for immediately giving you your mana back

#

Have to have two untapped lands, at least

#

Speaking strictly in terms of paying it with lands, it pays for itself when you have 8 lands

#

Having mana dorks makes this math way better

#

If you can run this out when you have, like, 4 lands this would be ideal

cinder pecan
#

chat

#

[[cycle of renewal]]

tight steepleBOT
cinder pecan
#

they gave us another one

#

do we really need all 8-9 of these???

#

Idk, I wanna put this one in too

cinder pecan
#

this would be the 5th one it looks like

#

I think I take out Beast Within for this

nova ore
#

I could always use another Harrow

#

Id probably cult cultivate for this

cinder pecan
#

Im already not on Cultivate

nova ore
#

thats fair

#

its the only one I still have that isnt a rotation card

#

IE sac to get lands out

cinder pecan
#

mhmm

#

I like calling these cards rotations

nova ore
#

yeah

tepid lintel
#

Wow another one

digital sinew
#

It’s gets better once you get graveyard land recursion

cinder pecan
#

Mhmm

#

I’m thinking of slapping together a +1/+1 counters version of szarel

#

Thoughts?

cinder pecan
#

Hell yeah

tepid lintel
#

Hmmm, are there any earthbending shenanigans that makes sense here?

#

Seems strong to get back all the lands you sac with a single effect

cinder pecan
#

Hmmm

#

Maybe

#

But idk if my list has room to try

#

I would probably make a second list

digital sinew
#

Public service announcement

#

If you aren’t on [[Nissa world soul]]

tight steepleBOT
digital sinew
#

Get on it now

nova ore
#

my hearthhull is mostly geared around doing the combo with either valakut awakening or hew the entwood, so permanants are less useful to me to put into play in a lot of cases, I do have scute swarm as a backup, and I suppose some baloths cards, but thats it

tepid lintel
#

I feel like earthbend is so good

#

Especially for reusing fetchlands and depletion lands

#

Or as a target for harrow

cinder pecan
#

Mhmm

digital sinew
#

How does earth bend interact with fetchlands

cinder pecan
#

You sac the fetch, trigger to search on the stack, earthbend trigger will also go on the stack to bring it back tapped

#

Youd get the fetch back and the land off the fetch

digital sinew
#

Now the question I have is

#

If I have any enters untapped effects does it come in untapped?

nova ore
#

yes

jade glen
#

Is there anything that gives

#

Just earthbending

#

To ur lands

cinder pecan
#

Earthbending being a triggered ability doesn’t really work that way

#

Tho a “for each land you control, earthbend n” would be fun

tepid lintel
#

Below are things I'm considering for earthbending here: [[Bumi, unleashed]] [[earthbender ascension]]., maybe one of the tophs?

tight steepleBOT
#

Enchantment
When this enchantment enters, earthbend 2. Then search your library for a basic land card, put it onto the battlefield tapped, then shuffle.
Landfall — Whenever a land you control enters, put a quest counter on this enchantment. When you do, if it has four or more quest counters on it, put a +1/+1 counter on target creature you control. It gains trample until end of turn.

tepid lintel
#

ETB earthbending is kinda cool with its ability to synergize with Nantuko

digital sinew
#

Agreed

#

With a sacrifice outlet it goes infinite no?

tepid lintel
#

If you have an untapper I think, like spelunking

#

Not sure if infinite, probably not? Since the nantuko costs 2 or 3 to copy?

cinder pecan
#

2 to copy

digital sinew
#

I love what the new designs direction they’re taking red tho

#

Redirection and shiz

cinder pecan
#

Idk if redirection is too new for red. Its felt like its been a thing for a while

#

Theyve just made the effect even more common

tepid lintel
#

Yeah, it's definitely not new

digital sinew
#

Well more so that they’re doubling down on it

#

Making it more accessible

#

Redirect lighting feels good af

#

I needa make a few cuts to my list

I wanna include that and valakut awakening

Alright got some avatar cards

Look at the top X cards of your library, where X is the number of lands you control. You may reveal a creature or land card from among them and put it into your hand. Put the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order.

Legendary Planeswalker — Nissa
Landfall — Whenever a land you control enters, put a loyalty counter on Nissa.
+1: Untap target land you control. You may have it become a 3/3 Elemental creature with haste and menace until end of turn. It's still a land.
−5: You may put a creature card with mana value less than or equal to the number of lands you control onto the battlefield from your hand or graveyard with two +1/+1 counters on it.

So you’ve got the cool factor involved

#

I mean yeah but still a bit specific

#

Is Nissa cool?

cinder pecan
#

Yeah

#

I also opened the full art one from when the set released

normal raft
#

Yeah the art is dope and the effect is really neat

#

Plus, technically, she is ramp

cinder pecan
#

Mhmm

#

The full art is super neat

digital sinew
#

Well I am on like every fetchable swamp so

#

I think I’ll keep both

cinder pecan
#

Fair

digital sinew
#

Dryad also fixes the issue if swamps no?

jade glen
#

Yes

#

Cool stuff

Super happy with the new build

#

Hearthull is the deck that goes from

from seemingly out of nowhere

Whats everyone's thoughts on [[Awaken the Woods]] in this deck? It would go hard with [[Moraug, Fury of Akoum]]. Thoughts?

#

its very good

#

And thoughts on comparison... [[Terror of the Peaks]] vs [[Warstorm Surge]]? Creature vs enchantment which does almost the same thing.

#

woops

#

sorry, wrong thread

nova ore
#

lol I was so confused by this, like why would you need this in hearthhull

digital sinew
#

Okay but hear me out

#

Landfall and reverse landfall with all the token generators

#

Terror of the peaks as a finisher

#

Every landfall on rampaging Bayloff is 4 extra damage

#

Don’t even get me started on scute swarm

jade glen
#

i feel like

#

its not really needed

#

this deck already cooks so hard

digital sinew
#

Yeah lmao

digital sinew
jade glen
#

its so funny

#

this is my list

digital sinew
#

Interesting

#

Here’s what I’m at

nova ore
#

I dont run enough swamps in mine to be runnin strands of night, but also pretty sure flowers deck is way beyond bracket 3 with that card quality lol

digital sinew
#

If you’re running any of the mana rock gc I assume it’s bracket 4+

cinder pecan
#

eh

#

it depends

nova ore
#

I dont count mana rock gc as the only reason your 4, if your deck is very synergistic, which most of these hearthull decks are at this point, your already pushing bracket 3, if you then throw game changers in to, its pretty much b4, because there arent any pet cards or anything, its all a very focused deck, and alot of people ignore that part about the brackets

cinder pecan
#

If you’re an upgraded bracket deck and your gcs are chrome mox, mana vault, and mox diamond, that might make me curious but Im not gonna just relegate you to the optimized bracket space, especially since those are the only 3 you’re running

tepid lintel
#

GCs are only part of the story though

cinder pecan
#

right

#

that's why someone running a set of gcs like that doesn't tell me their deck isn't an upgraded bracket deck

digital sinew
#

found a dumb land sacrficer

#

[[tomb of uru]]

tight steepleBOT
tepid lintel
#

lol

#

I like it

jade glen
#

Typically I win around t6

#

T5 jf I get lucky

jade glen
nova ore
jade glen
#

For redundancy

#

I’m considering dropping exsanguinate

cinder pecan
#

I still gotta edit my paper list since I still have a couple things to swap

jade glen
#

My deck is really hard to stop

#

Cuz I have so many redundancy

#

But they just end up killing me

#

With damage

#

Should I even do exsanguinate

#

Or go for greensleeves

tepid lintel
#

t6 win is a really fast win too

cinder pecan
#

Mhmm

#

Turn 8-9 is when im finding myself normally and i like that sweet spot

jade glen
#

I just typically let people know I just build strong 3s

#

I feel like I just accidentally end up being b4

digital sinew
#

I only kept removal and deflecting swat

jade glen
#

i only have a beast within

#

an a assassin trop

digital sinew
#

I've come to announce that [[toph hard headed]] is very very good in the deck

tight steepleBOT
#

Legendary Creature — Human Warrior Ally
When Toph enters, you may discard a card. If you do, return target instant or sorcery card from your graveyard to your hand.
Whenever you cast a spell, earthbend 1. If that spell is a Lesson, put an additional +1/+1 counter on that land. (Target land you control becomes a 0/0 creature with haste that's still a land. Put a +1/+1 counter on it. When it dies or is exiled, return it to the battlefield tapped.)
3/4

tepid lintel
#

Indeed!

jade glen
#

Does it just make

#

1/1

cinder pecan
#

Yes

#

But since you get to earthbend the lands, you can sac them and get them back

#

So you can very easily profit

#

The ability to easily earthbend is huge for a deck like this

digital sinew
#

Especially for just playing the game

#

This toph is the most consistent way to earthbend

cinder pecan
#

mhmm

digital sinew
#

Plus I got to Blas act twice in a row

#

Funniest shit ever

#

Animating a surveil land and sacking it to get more surveils is awesome
Keeping your fetch lands is even better

#

Combine that with any of the land untappers

#

You get so many lands out for free

jade glen
#

Okay I will get a copy

digital sinew
#

It’s only like 1$

#

So worth

jade glen
#

I can’t find it

#

No shops have it

#

It’s cursed

hollow valve
#

I am building hearthhull and I do think earthbending is just so fucking good but can't go too hard on it as you need repeatable earthbending to pay off

i mean if u wanna self mill?

but u can usually do that with like

#

an icetill

#

or life from the loam

jade glen
#

I know but I dislike milling others

#

Since most of my group plays graveyard decks

digital sinew
#

Fair

#

Time to run dauthi

jade glen
#

Ya I cannot say this deck is b3 anymore

#

It’s just a b4

#

It’s now at the point where I can play thru

#

3 counterspells

#

Thooo someone Galadriel dismissal me

#

And that cooked me

digital sinew
#

I’m also in the same boat

#

I recently had a turn 5 win

#

So idk if I sit in b3 anymore

#

Even without game changers

#

My deck has so much resilience that even upon the removal of my board I just get it all back the next turn

hollow valve
#

Yeah hearthhull is just good huh

#

I am gonna build it b4

tepid lintel
#

Build it before what?

jade glen
#

Also

#

Ok a side note

#

Tectonic split

#

Is broken

#

And uninterrupted my deck usually wins around t5-6 as well. T3-4 if I draw well

digital sinew
#

Copy, I can’t figure out what to cut for it

#

I wonder if the seed could be pushed into some cedh viability

#

Idk seems cope

jade glen
#

Not cedh cuz of the station

#

Cuz cedh runs a lot of non creatues interaction

nova ore
#

yeah station is too slow and vulnerable in cedh, and this isnt in the colors to provide a lot of protection

digital sinew
#

Yeah true

#

Tbh you can just run it as all gas no brakes

#

Like semi blue does

#

Putting that aside

#

If tectonic split is in grave, shifting woodlands can basically become it for the turn right?

#

And you keep the benefits

jade glen
#

Yes

#

It has hexproof too so

cinder pecan
tepid lintel
#

❤️

hollow valve
jade glen
#

I can kill with hearthhull

#

Valakut

#

Mount doom

#

Combat damage

#

Tokens with field of the dead

#

Copies with spring heart

#

Infinite health too if I want

hollow valve
#

Hearthhull only gets out turn 3, maybe 2 if you get an early burgeoning or exploration

#

You might want to consider Mirrorpool and Vesuva. Maybe also sun scorched desert

#

You have the makings of lumra loops

hollow valve
#

No lotus field

jade glen
#

It’s there

hollow valve
#

Oh right it's the weird art without the text at the top

jade glen
#

Mhm

hollow valve
#

Yeah mirrorpool loops are strong

#

Lumra mirrorpool shenanigans

#

You already have the rest of the combo

jade glen
#

I run without imo

#

It feels dead in hand

#

I don’t have ways to make colorless

#

So I can’t activate it as consistently

hollow valve
#

Ah true

jade glen
#

I opted for

#

No sol ring

hollow valve
#

I forget that my lumra list is mostly colourless mana

jade glen
#

Ya

#

Mount doom is my alternative

hollow valve
#

What about vesuva

#

Surprised at no tannuk

#

Oh valakut does it better

jade glen

#

[[mount doom]]

tight steepleBOT

Ah

jade glen
#

Guys

#

What’s the verdict on

#

Elemental teaching

#

I think it’s

#

Ok

#

If ur only win is land combos with stuff like blossoming tortoise

#

It’s great

#

My deck has multiple so

#

I decided to drop it

#

Also I feel like the deck does not need lord wingrace

yeah I havent run lord wingrace since the first time I drew him, hes just win more

I already have like 4 effects

cinder pecan

I would run it over any cultivate effect in this deck

tepid lintel

Yeah ofc

#

We are spoiled with harroew choices though

hollow valve
#

It's better than harrow sometimes

#

If harrow gets countered you're down a land

tepid lintel
#

Jokes on you. I want to be down lands!

#

Right, it's not part of the cost to sacrifice

cinder pecan
#

Yeah I don’t think the sac as part of the cost is too big a detriment, especially since harrow puts the lands in untapped

Seems like a decent addition if you want to try out earthbending

How has gruul toph been

#

I have not tested

#

But idk if it’s worse for us or not

digital sinew
#

It’s insanely good for us

#

Being able to earthbend at will is so fucking busted

#

Especially when I earthbend a fetch land

#

And have an untapper on board

#

While just going about my game plan

hollow valve
#

There are too many cool cards for landsy decks, I can't pick which to keep

#

I want so much earthbending

#

I want ashaya loops. I want lumra loops.

digital sinew
#

I have like 30 infinites in my deck

#

Do I ever use any?

#

No

#

The deck functions too well despite

jade glen
#

I never get there

Moraug plays are always silly

nova ore
#

Hm, so I got a box of avatar boosters and I popped both Toph metalbender and badgermole cub, and now Im torn on adding them to hearthull, or taking apart hearthhull and building toph

cinder pecan
#

Nah

#

The card pool for those two legends is so different

Either brew both or keep hearthhull

nova ore
#

yes and no, alot of the stuff in hearthull would be useful in toph, like the multi land / land from gy stuff

#

like zuran orb, icetill explorer, azusa

hollow valve
#

Ugh I was so sure I was going for hearthhull but then I realised naya toph is cool

nova ore
#

yeah, its a challenge lol

jade glen
#

Stasis coffin loop is op

hollow valve
#

I think hearthhull and toph are sufficiently different to not feel too overlappy

#

Depending on how sweaty you make them

#

I think as they become more combo-y, they also become more similar

nova ore
#

yeah, I might try to figure out a toph deck that doesnt crossover with hearthull, because I really dont want to take apart hearthhull, its still one of my all time favorite decks

cinder pecan
nova ore
#

hm, eggs, I dont have an eggs deck

What do you folks think of this precon out of the box? Last friday, a friend of mine wanted to learn how to play magic, so they came to commander night at the LGS. I didn't have any beginner decks, so I bought this to play with them. I'm thinking of keeping it as-is so I have a precon level deck. Is it a good deck for that, or am I better off upgrading this and finding a different precon to use as my beginner deck?

cinder pecan
#

Out of the box I think its very good

topaz frost
#

Szarel is a commander that has interested me for a long time, but I've never actually built it because I was concerned it would be too similar to my other managmanabmanax decks. So I think holding onto this as a out-of-the-box precon will let me stick to the playstyle I enjoy even when I play at a lower power level

tepid lintel
#

Yeah it's quite good out of the box.

#

I haven't tried with szarel at the helm, but I imagine they would also work well

There needs to be more rewards for playing basics

#

My Hearthhull deck is also no longer with us

tepid lintel
#

Pouring one out as we speak

cinder pecan
#

I took it apart shortly after obtaining Ashling

#

I got tired of all the searching

nova ore
#

yeah, I just reached a point where it was either too strong in the pod or too weak in the pod so it would either stomp everyone or lose, and thats too binary for me for anything that isnt cedh, and while I could have detuned it, I found myself just holding till I got the combo with hew the entwood or nahiri to go for the win instead of doing much with the rest of the deck and tuned everything around that combo, and that got boring after a while

nova ore
#

or 5c

cinder pecan
#

no, the 5c one

that's how much I love evoke: I can put aside it being a "5c" legend

nova ore
#

wow, I played the precon for a bit, even threw some cards like sunderflock and flamekin harbinger in it, but I just cant do the 5c thing

#

then again I have terrible luck with mana screw, it happens often

#

I literally had multiple games with hearthhull on 38 lands where somehow I got like 3 lands in the first 8 turns

cinder pecan
#

I plan to again soon, but if I keep ignoring it I may also dismantle that one
