DaWubber on Can we play that commander? …

Can we have Olivia Voldaren Olivia, Mobilized for War and Olivia, Crimson Bride.

Mom: Sweety, we have all three Olivia at home.

Olivia at home: Drana, Kalastria Bloodchief Drana, Liberator of Malakir and Drana, the Last Bloodchief.

For real though, it feels like every version of a Drana we got was followed soon by a version of Olivia that does a similar thing. The first Drana and Olivia leverage excess Mana as removal that doubles as a bump in power. The second versions are aggro strategies, and the third (and currently final versions) are reanimator cards. I play the first Drana, and am kinda annoyed att how similar they always seem to me.

DrukenReaps on Your Cheap Obscure Overperformers?

I only quickly perused EDHrec but pretty sure none of the following came up on the pages of the commanders I use them with. Each has done some impressive work at my table. I used sorting by Card Kingdom price on this website to find sub $2.

In Olivia, Crimson Bride I have Shifting Shadow. Since Olivia's attack reanimates Shifting Shadow ends up just giving me free creatures at effectively no cost to me. In a way it actually fuels the deck's plan.

In Ayara, First of Locthwain I have Aetherworks Marvel and Mimic Vat. This deck just loves getting more and more creatures into play. Both of the artifacts assist in doing that over and over again. Sometimes Aetherworks even drops in Plague of Vermin too, a finisher in that deck.

In Mairsil, the Pretender I have Captivating Crew, Chandra, Flamecaller, and Xathrid Gorgon. Seems to be a rare cheap commander to begin with... lol. Xathrid typically turns commanders off, highly effective card against the likes of Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind and Zacama, Primal Calamity. Chandra does an amazing job of filling up my graveyard. Every turn a new hand +1. Captivating Crew lets me "borrow" some pretty sweet attackers and other effects, there are instant versions of this effect but not on a stick to my knowledge. 1 or 2 activations often opens someone up to attacks too.

Wickked on Henzie

Galaxstar Nice list. How often do you find you have trouble casting all your 7 drops? I see you have about 10ish ramp spells that should help get there. I've been thinking about adding more 7 drops myself but have been hesitant. My overall cmc is a bit lower then yours at 4.0 instead of 4.25 and it seems to run great. One card that has been an all star in my deck is Doom Weaver, first and foremost he's an amazing blocker with reach and 8 toughness. but he also synergizes very well with Henzie allowing you to partner any creature blitzed in and drawing cards equal to its power. As you can imagine this adds up very quickly. Another card I would highly recommend is Protean Hulk. It's a good card to get any creature that would put you in the best situation. Allot of times I grab Olivia, Crimson Bride to just snag him right back out. Hulk can be used as a value piece and doesn't have to be tied to infinite loops to be affective. I really like the deck, you should check out my deck and give me some Critiques. Thanks and have a great day

Wickked on Henzie "Gatling" Torre

coinfliplarry Nice list. Seems allot like my Henzie list. One card that I would highly recommend is Olivia, Crimson Bride. She comes out with haste can instantly get your big creatures in the graveyard back on the field swinging. Ghoulcaller Gisa is another very helpful creature who gets a ton of value off your soon to be dead blitzed creatures. Good to see people still brewing with Henzie, He's a very unique commander. Please check out my list and give me some critiques. Thanks and have a great day

DrukenReaps on Is Commander Legends a New …

8 months ago

I play plenty of old cards. I think the issue is less of a power creep and more that folks just don't go looking for cards. Some things that use to have rather awful downsides to deal with like Shauku, Endbringer are really not anymore. And she provides a relevant powerful ability. Not for every deck but it works wonders in my Mairsil, the Pretender and Olivia, Crimson Bride. I always find something worthwhile when I go poking around long enough.

I don't play competitive however but even that seems to rely on particular older cards.

And there's plenty of newer cards that are overly restrictive. Keeping older cards plenty useful. I'm not as likely to include Welcoming Vampire as I am Mentor of the Meek for example.

Some suggestions from the recent sets that may have flown under your radar:

Burakos, Party Leader: You'll at least cause an opponent to lose 2 life and you create 2 treasure tokens, there are a few "party" cards in my Isshin list so sometimes I get some more bang for my buck out of him.

Elder Brain: this card has just been hilarious. It may be high on the CMC but with the treasure tokens made you can still run it out fairly quickly.

Archon of Cruelty: not so new, and high CMC, but I haven't had issues getting it out and it flat out wins games. (I had one game where I discarded Archon to Fable of the Mirror-Breaker  ^Flip, brought it back with Olivia, Crimson Bride, next turn put out Isshin and used the mirror breaker to copy Archon and it was game over. mind you this was in about the first 5 turns.

Black Market Connections and Smuggler's Share have become staples in most of my decks. Highly recommend.

Greatsword of Tyr: bonkers in Isshin

Mysterious Limousine: seems janky but has been an all-star

Hammers of Moradin fall is a similar vein to greatsword of Tyr

Urabrask, Heretic Praetor: I did not like this card when it was spoiled, I decided to test it as a means to counter control decks and give some more card draw and it has been surprisingly good. It doesn't seem like it is amazing when you're using it, but being on the other side of it playing control or a combo deck it was a nightmare.
