Dread is No Mercy on a body.

Stormtide Leviathan and Blazing Archon simply say "you may not"

Archangel of Tithes and Windborn Muse both have similar effects that make easier to attack someone else, while Michiko Konda, Truth Seeker and Phyrexian Obliterator drive that point home even further.

But if you want the carrot rather than the stick, there's Edric, Spymaster of Trest and Karazikar, the Eye Tyrant to offer up cards for attacking your opponents instead. And related to Karazikar's goading ability Grenzo, Havoc Raiser can help you keep your opponent open if you're going wide, and Marisi, Breaker of the Coil is that same ability but even stronger as you only need to connect with one creatre.

Platinum Angel and Platinum Emperion make attacking you pointless unless you can also deal with them.

Sevinne, the Chronoclasm make an excellent blocker, and both Angus Mackenzie and Lady Evangela offer fog and fog-light effects on your commmander.

Eight-and-a-Half-Tails works similarly to Mother of Runes if you have the mana to pour into it, and Giver of Runes will protect something else in a way similar to mom.

Pairing together first strike with deathtouch is always a good method too, Glissa, the Traitor has this on her own, but it doesn't take much work for Kathril, Aspect Warper to do the same.

The set of Legends introduced both Legendary creatures and multi-coloured cards into the game. More important is the second for the sake of this comment.

Dakkon Blackblade , of the same set as Halfdane , oddly adheres to what we see today of the ordering, being .

Lady Evangela bears the mana cost of .

More inconsistencies can be seen in Sol'kanar ()and Tetsuo Umezawa (), Xira Arien () and Vaevictis (), and, lastly, Angus () and Ragnar ().

Oddly enough, all of the four Naya legends ( Johan , Jacques , Palladia-Mors , and Hazezon Tamar) have the same colour ordering.

All of the two-colour combinations (except for Rakdos ?) are backwards from what we see today, yet are all constant.

The Dark's Scarwood Gobbo () is similar to Legends' mana costs, an ensample being The Lady of the Mountain () (my favourite card of all time).

The afield system seems to have been rectified in Ice Age, for it had Centaur Archer (), Diabolic Vision (), and Chromatic Armor ().

(Legends had Jedit Ojanen ())

My concensus here is that WOTC did not have much of a grasp as to amounts and mana costs in the debut set, whereupon inconsistencies may be seen about the expansion, yet they righted this two releases later.

Not much is actually in this comment, but others may use this information as they wish to sieve through Magic's multi-coloured monstrosities.

Legendary Creature - Human Cleric

  • Target creature gains protection from the color of your choice until end of turn.

  • Destroy target creature with power greater than ~, then put a +1/+1 counter on ~.

Whenever a creature you control dies, untap ~.

I got the idea from the offhand flavor text on Lady Evangela .

BUMP BUZZING CHROMIUM FOR SOMEONE ELSE!

Alright. Here's the situation. I seriously doubt Chromium, the Mutable would work good as an ESPER CMDR here. I've a lot of things to add at some point, but I'm unsure what CMDR to replace Chromium 2.0 though:

Oloro, Ageless Ascetic : We're playing powerful cards that best fit my Vorthos Deck based on "BMH: The UnExperience", if you want to poke fun at that name, not do something Orzhov () can do better w/o .

Zur the Enchanter : Don't get me wrong, he's awesome, but... just look at the number Enchantments I have already; not even enough to warrant this.

Sen Triplets : I seriously dunno how the Powerpuff Girls as Esperites would work as it just simply counts as only one opponent as a target each turn. Skip.

Sharuum the Hegemon : Remember when Breya, Etherium Shaper outclasses this creature after Commander 2016? This Sphinx is worse here as this is not an artifact manipulation deck.

Sydri, Galvanic Genius : If she were a Legendary Artifact Creature, she would be WAY better than the aforementioned Sphinx that's more incorrect than The Riddler. Even so, this is a skip for the same reasons as the Hegemon herself.

Merieke Ri Berit : Err... Why would I use this, when I plan to update this deck with one Perplexing Chimera that, when one casts something good, I trade control over such a much needed creature anyway, while Eldrazi Displacer can easily give me back my Chimera. Now I just want to protect my Displacer though....

Aminatou, the Fateshifter : Awesome Walker, unsure if she'll do any good here; though this is part Value Town, so how should I know? Opinions?

Ertai, the Corrupted : The original Ertai, Wizard Adept is far & away, the better creature, & the latter is better off as a part of the 99 (98 is Partners based...) anyway.

Varina, Lich Queen : If I wanted to make a Zombie Tribal Deck, I'd use either her, or even Thraximundar ; & exclude anything involving "Gisa the Mad"; she's a (A kitten died as I said the B word, & is censored by #CATMEGEDDON), & clearly wants to kill both Stitcher Geralf , Ludevic, Necro-Alchemist , & everything they both worked on as "Impurities" to the undead. Kaya, Orzhov Usurper , & Teyo Verada both say hi, you Mad, Necromancing, Excuse for a MTG Character. I hope you get executed by the Inquisitors of Innistrad; by Guillotine! & if anyone tries to use Ghoulcaller Gisa, even Gisa & Geralf (See? No Links because Gisa the Mad doesn't deserve this crap! :D) for Zombie Tribal decks in the future, Grimgrin, Corpse-Born & Rooftop Storm both say the exact thing Anne Robinson will say to everyone as a former game show host: (Tips head) "You suck!" (Smirks like an asshole).

/endrant, & all further use of Gisa abusing Geralf in all errata, & decks with said errata; Geralf is wiser, & more reserved anyway. I can relate to Geralf more than that Kaya-Hating Brother Killer not deserving of life anyway. :D

/endrantforreal.

Yennett, Cryptic Sovereign : Finally... something. While I do have some even costs here & there, at least this seems decent as I have more odd costs. I wonder...

Dakkon Blackblade : Are you an idiot!? Blackblade Reforged is basically the same effect, just a Legendary Artifact - Equipment. Skip for damn sure! &, Gideon Jura is using it now, after he was dubbed a crap leader of the Gatewatch by Nicol Bolas, & lost his Sural & Self-Determination! I bet he now has in his blood!

Dromar, the Banisher : Why the bloody hell would anyone run Monocolors still?!

Chromium : What the hell is Rampage? How does this work, & why am I taxed to keep this MechaGodzilla wannabe incarnation of one from Core 19 that's far better?!

Halfdane & Lady Evangela : Legends sucked as a whole when it came to their Legendary Creatures. These two are no exception.

(Any Partner CMDR Duos that have a combined Identity of ): (Rips one of them to show they suck.)

Yep, that's my thoughts of all the other Esper Legends. If you have something to say that could be used in this situation in place of Chromium, the Mutable , your opinions for a better substitute is very much welcome. It's just I'm running a COMPLETELY differing deck than what Esper normally runs.

Opinions are open for debate now. Oh, & about Geralf, here's his best quote as a warning to priests (Including Gisa the Mad as a Ghoulcaller.) as he zaps hell on Innistrad:

"Let those idiot priests tremble! A new era in unlife begins here and now. Oglor, raise the lightning vane!"

You have to admit, this is Geralf at his most badass. I don't even give a crud about "Olgor" anyway. PX

I've finished cleric tribal with Lady Evangela.



I want to try and finish ninjas for #25, and come up with a name/description for soldiers so that I can hopefully finish it for #26.

Tiny_Sir on Figured out an Idea, Just …

Hello!

Some of you might remember me from an earlier post about getting back into commander after a 1 - year hiatus.

I think I got the best idea from DualCastGaming who said I need to just play decks to find out what I like. I figure the best way to do that is through a "Steal Yo' Stuff" deck that plays clones and takes people's cards.

I figured maybe the best colors for this would have to include Dimir colors (U/B), and I thought white added in some good effects to add and had some good commanders for this type of strategy;

Halfdane: I know I know. I said I wanted to make this on a budget. But I think if you put a big part of the budget on the commander, you won't be let down since you'll see it everygame no matter what. This guy is kinda silly, but I think he looks really fun.

Zur the Enchanter: Maybe can get tons of Control Magic type enchantments? I'm kinda unsure.

Sen Triplets: Really fun looking getting to not only steal creatures but spells as well.

Lady Evangela: Gives us some protection and is unassuming.

Dromar, the Banisher: Copy their stuff and then bounce their copies? Sounds fun!

I will not be including Merieke Ri Berit because I just don't like her to much. I don't know why she doesn't feel right however.

Any suggestions? Thanks!

Heyo, so my Esper Control//Stax deck running Lady Evangela as the commander is neat, but needs considerable work before trying to get it listed here, so here's my mono blue combo deck I made running Iridescent Drake as the commander:

Bitch You Thought - Iridescent Demise Combo

The deck likely works better 1v1, but it is geared towards multiplayer. The stax deck is more of a 1v1 deck due to it's shittiness.
