Chasmolinker on I'll Raise you +1/+1...

2 years ago

First off, Thanks for the recognition lhetrick13. I don't know about infamous, but I'll take it. And thanks for reminding me to update that list ASAP. lol

As for the rest:
- Retribution of the Ancients, I never tried it. I don't know if you want to rely on it to heavily. If you go into {B} there is SOOO much removal that becomes available. Fatal Push, Infernal Grasp, Thoughtseize, Bloodchief's Thirst, Assassin's Trophy, Maelstrom Pulse, Vindicate...

- Swallow Whole can definitely go for something more reliable. At sorcery speed, you probably already took damage by the time you're casting this. The additional +1/+1 counters seems like an uneven tradeoff.

- Hopeful Initiate seems fine. Scavenging Ooze could replace one of the 3 copies currently in the list.

Daghatar the Adamant works really well if you need a mana sink. I would probably go up to 4 copies of Luminarch Aspirant though TBH.

TypicalTimmy on Card creation challenge

!!!

Throg, God of Thunder

Legendary Creature - Frog Barbarian God

Whenever Throg, God of Thunder attacks you may discard a card from your hand. If you do, he gets +X/+0 until end of turn where X is that card's mana value.

Whenever you discard a land, Throg, God of Thunder deals 4 damage to any target.

2/4

Lmao, nice.

Back during Fate Reforged, we got two cycles of hybrid-activation creatures; Five rares and five mythics. Strangely enough, the rares were Legendary creatures and the mythics were not.

We got; Daghatar the Adamant, Shu Yun, the Silent Tempest, Tasigur, the Golden Fang, Alesha, Who Smiles at Death and Yasova Dragonclaw. For the mythics, we got Soulfire Grand Master, Torrent Elemental, Brutal Hordechief, Shaman of the Great Hunt... and then there's this guy, who breaks the mould.

Make a new mono-, non-legendary MYTHIC creature who has an activation cost that follows the pattern of the other nine.

Does Daghatar the Adamant allow you to essentially steal +1/+1 counters?

Daghatar the Adamant, or Triad of Fates are pretty underused/obscure.

DemonDragonJ on Vitaverdi, Ancient One

4 years ago

Forgotten Ancient is a great card, but I wish to see that effect on a legendary creature, so that it can be used as a general in an EDH deck, so I have created such a card, as seen, here:

Vitaverdi, Ancient One Show

Vitaverdi, Ancient One

Casting Cost:

Legendary Creature - elemental

Power/Toughness: 1/3

Trample.

Whenever a player casts a spell, you may put a +1/+1 counter on Vitaverdi, ancient one.

: move a +1/+1 counter from Vitaverdi onto another target creature.

First, I made this creature multicolored, to provide players with greater options when building an EDH deck.

Second, I gave it trample and higher starting power, because I feel that Forgotten Ancient is underpowered by today's standards (although that does not mean that it is weak by any measure).

Third, I changed its final ability from a triggered ability to an activated ability, to allow its controller to have greater freedom when using it, using the ability of Daghatar the Adamant as a model.

Also, the word "vita" means "life" in Latin and "verdi" means "green," so "Vitaverdi" means "green life;" I know that that name is not particularly imaginative, but I wished to spend more creativity on the card itself than on its name.

What does everyone else think of this card? Do you like it?

Ima just clear up a couple things about EDH and rules so that you can have a better experience in the future.

1. You MUST have 100 cards INCLUDING your Commander. While you have 100 cards there are other things.

2. You MUST have a Commmander(also called a General). You dont have one.

3. Whatever color your Commander is, that is the color your deck has to be. For instance, I can only play Naya colors(Green, White and Red) if Atla Palani, Nest Tender is my Commander because she doesn't have any Black or Blue, just Green, White and Red. But if I play Golos, Tireless Pilgrim , I can play all 5 colors, because even though he only costs colorless, he has an ability that uses all 5 colors. Using these rules, I can play Daghatar the Adamant is Abzan colors, not just white, because he has an ability that features both Black and Green.

4. You can ONLY have 1 copy of each card. This does not include basic lands or cards that specifically say otherwise like Shadowborn Apostle

5. Here is a link to the EDH wiki: https://mtg.fandom.com/wiki/EDH Use this to further enhance your knowledge, because somethings are difficult to explain through a comment.

Based off your description, i would use Kambal, Consul of Allocation or Ghost Council of Orzhova as your Commander. I have a Kambal, Consul of Allocation deck here: Kambal, Consul of Life Drain that you could use to fill in the slots you are going to have open. I will readily admit however, that I have not built a Ghost Council of Orzhova deck nor that I am any good at building EDH decks competitively. My talents lie in Modern.

Hope This Helps!

DM me if you have any questions that I can help with. You could do this on any of my decks or at my Profile Page Catpocolypse and I would be HAPPY to help.

Tyrant-Thanatos on Junk colors in EDH

4 years ago

So I've become a really big fan of EDH over the last few years, but I've never managed to build a junk deck (), despite it being by far my favorite color combination.

I just took a look at the available commanders, and it's no wonder!

Ghave, Guru of Spores doesn't seem to cater to what I'm looking for out of the colors at all, which is large resilient creatures that I can reanimate time and time again.

Teneb, the Harvester seems prohibitively expensive to cast and to use. Six mana for a 6/6 flyer that has to connect with face, just to have to pay a further 3 to reanimate something? sheesh.

Anafenza, the Foremost is in the same boat as Ghave, plus I have a personal dislike for her.

Karador, Ghost Chieftain seems okay, but pretty much directly inferior to Muldrotha, the Gravetide .

Doran, the Siege Tower is possibly even further from what I want than Ghave.

Daghatar the Adamant More +1/+1 counter stuff. and he's horrible to boot.

Kethis, the Hidden Hand might be interesting, but I'm afraid he'd just devolve into superfriends.

So I guess the question is, what do I do? Who should I build if I want a resilient, aggressive deck that can throw down threats that attack, and block, and come back, and never stop? And how to I build them? Teneb and Karador seem like the only real choices, but I need some tips on making them work. Is this sort of playstyle even viable in EDH?
