I cannot believe that you cannot actually tag your EDH deck with the "political" hub while building it in this page

Last_Laugh LOL, i never thought about the possibility to build a decka round the wall eventho i am mexican. Caerwyn albeit i get your point I don't think it stands valid since political encompass all of those themes including those that you refer.

Your counterargument is exactly the point I was making. Your proposed term would encompass both table politics (the archetype) and real-world politics (the Vorthos theme). We do not want a tag that could be so easily misconstrued, hence the limitation language of “table” to ensure only the archetype is covered by the tag.

Caerwyn daaayum son, you are absolutely right. I think we can reach a point of consensus in the issue around us needing a tag for the "political" archetipe decks. What I am not convinced is calling it "table politics" because that set asides the possibility of shaping player's behaviour through various ways other than board state (such as Imaginary Threats ) But yeah, we need a tag !!! I NEED IT

Tzilakatzin: 'Table' refers to the game and the players, not specifically the board state. Your comment would be would be 'Board Politics'.

I think this is a good idea for a tag, since it is a fairly popular casual EDH archetype. However, I think “Table Politics” might be a better name, so it doesn’t get flooded with the number of (usually dull and poorly articulated) decks involving real-world politics.
