DemonDragonJ on The Mind is a Terrible Thing to Raze

I have replaced Master of the Feast with Scrawling Crawler, since, as nice as it was to have a 5/3 flying beater for only 3 mana, the crawler is a better match, for this deck, since it has a more lenient casting cost, draws me a card, as well, and also provides another way to hurt my opponents, when they draw cards.

I contemplated replacing Tidal Barracuda with High Fae Trickster, but I ultimately chose to keep the barracuda, in this deck, since it works well with this decks group hug/group slug strategy, and it would also be nice to put Niv-Mizzet, Visionary into this deck, as well, but I am not certain what card I would remove, to make room for that card.

Caerwyn on Should I Keep Font of …

I would cut Font of Mythos, Howling Mine, Master of the Feast and Temple Bell - not one of those cards does enough to win you the game. Forced Fruition is a trap also - it usually reads "let them combo off by giving them every card they need to win on a single turn, without being able to do enough damage to stop them."

Nekusar works best when he is hyper explosive, tossing mass damage on the field through wheels. Instead of wasting your time with these small, incremental damage, you really should be looking to add Dark Deal, Windfall, Winds of Change. Whispering Madness, etc. Teferi's Puzzle Box is another high impact card that should be a must-include. Phyresis, Glistening Oil, and other ways to confer Infect will drastically will increase your odds of winning. Cards like Curiosity add huge card advantage. And auras like Helm of the Ghastlord and Sigil of Sleep can use Nekusar to help lock out opponents.

Cut the lifegain cards like Ivory Tower and Elixir of Immortality, as well as combat-focused cards like Akroma's Memorial. None of those do anything for your actual gameplan.

You also could stand to get your average mana cost down. Seizan, Perverter of Truth, for example, is synergistic, but five mana is steep and the card slot would be better off as a wheel.

Mave on endles whispers edh

I read the thread when I tried to look up the rules for the cards which is kinda important for EDH Endless Whispers. (I plan on including it in Obeka)

In a 1v1 match it mostly tries to get the best creature of an opponent while donating negative effects. But in commander it becomes a game of "hot potato" where you can never be sure who gets the creatures of another player but you can decide what "garbage" you donate. That is the gist of what the deck will do in a multiplayer game.

Depending on what you give away you may want cards that can counter triggered abilities in case ove Leveler, Sky Swallower, Boldwyr Heavyweights, Eater of Days, Hunted Wumpus, Inverter of Truth, Dust Elemental, Avatar of Discord, Indentured Djinn Ebon Drake Plague Reaver Master of the Feast Tempting Wurm, the haunted one like Hunted Troll, Hunted Dragon,Hunted Dragon, Hunted Lammasu or Hunted Phantasm. Personally I would use Obeka, Brute Chronologist to counter the ETB of the creatures you play by ending the turn and then giving them to an opponent. But that only works for when the creature with negative effect enters the battlefield during your turn. But it is a great plan B in case you don't have Endless Whispers to give your opponents creatures from the list above by simply playing an 8/8 trample for {2}{R}{R} then ending the turn before the trigger resolves.

Other options are Jon Irenicus, Shattered One or Blim, Comedic Genius both want your opponents to control your creatures. If you just want the effect of giving your opponents negative ETBs you can also build a deck on The Beamtown Bullies. But including Endless Whispers in this deck can backfire by giving you one of the negative effects if the creature dies. And it also is hard to let e.g. Leveler enter the battlefield to donate it through endless whispers. What helps with that may be to manifest a creature with a negative effect with e.g. Scroll of Fate. You can also manifest creatures with negative effect from your library but that is a bit more random.

To prevent getting creatures with negative effects from your opponents you to gain hexproof. There are plenty of effects giving yourself hexproof in white but I couldn't find a good commander for that. To gain hexproof yourself in a non white deck you most likely need Orbs of Warding which may be the way to go to prevent opponents to return the hot potato to you. Which is what I do in Obeka (sadly I don't have any list online of that deck).

If you like Endless Whispers to take your opponent cards however you might rather want to play Grave Betrayal or Lim-Dul the Necromancer. Overall it can still be used as a politicle tool. Especially if you donate one of the Haunted once you can build a pact with another player that you always trade them with each other to get more and more tokens.

Talking tokens it is also possible to put Endless Whispers in Grismold, the Dreadsower which gets into the direction of Dagger Burn known through Rampaging Ferocidon, Trespasser's Curse, Massacre Wurm, Slaughter Specialist and e.g. Illness in the Ranks/Virulent Plague. Whenever you donate Hunted Troll to an opponent or it enters the battlefield you let the 1/1 faeris directly die causing Grismold to trigger and also cards like Poison-Tip Archer.

It is also possible to play with effects like Plaguecrafter, Abyssal Gorestalker, Gravelighter. The player who gets the creature has to sacrifice one creature less and choses who sacrifice one creature less the next turn. But as long as you profit from death triggers via e.g. enchantments or artifacts you will profit most from your favourite card.

I also like Rakdos the Defiler to use Endless Whisper. After all one can donate some negative effects and if the opponent sacrifices creatures they have to donate them to someone else. Altough that also works better in 1v1.

I hope the explanation helps to find the right deck to play Endless Whispers in Commander.

SufferFromEDHD on Snuggly Cactus (Seizan EDH)

Big fan of Seizan. Was my black stax commander for years until Tergrid was printed. The synergy was too juicy and the switch had to be made. I miss Seizan though as group hug thug is a fun strategy.

Mark of the Oni not many decks this works in. A blue steal effect that's cheaper than blue.

Master of the Feast might be worth a spot.

Rankle, Master of Pranks little Seizan.

Sheoldred, the Apocalypse too expensive but the utility is there and the math is clear.

You're right about Dark Confidant; as I'm not drawing, it doesn't interact with Sheoldred. However, when Sheoldred is not out yet and I get this in turn 1 or 2, it's insanely good and has actually allowed me to win games. So for now, I'm going to accept its one downside and keep it in.

I've been wanting to collect a Master of the Feast for some time, but it is proving to be very difficult. None of the online vendors in my country has had one for some time; I've checked. Some of my friends have one, but they're not willing to trade it. Rest assured though, if I ever get one it's going to be added!

Dread Presence and Baleful Mastery are both nice, though I'm having a hard time thinking of cards to remove, as these are both not that instrumental to victory either.

Dark Confidant one of my favorites! But it is counter productive to this decks strategy. Perhaps Dread Presence or Master of the Feast could serve you better.

Baleful Mastery all upside, no drawback.

Dark Deal is worth testing, I believe. Thank you!

Need to test how often Rule of Law keeps the opponents hand full. Master of the Feast was already suggested. Flumph fills his spot better, in my opinion.

I uncluded Sheoldred, the Apocalypse as soon as it was previewed while brewing this deck, because it just "has" to fit, you'd think. I'll not go into detail why it didn't, it was very suprising to me, but perhaps it does now. It goes into Underworld Dreams's spot, if so.

Sheoldred, the Apocalypse might be a little slow but synergizes pretty well. (I did not notice this card is $60, nevermind then)

Dark Deal could be funny.

Maybe Master of the Feast?
