hyalopterouslemur on Beta Brackets Update Today

2 weeks ago

DemonDragonJ: Yeah, my loathing of five-color goodstuff mostly comes from how this is supposed to be the color-restricted format: I have a Ghave, Guru of Spores deck, but if I want to make a Rith, the Awakener or Marath, Will of the Wild *f-etch* deck, I have to lose the black cards (and probably the entire Aristocrats theme). So, no more Grave Pact or Dictate of Erebos. No more Pitiless Plunderer. No more Diabolic Intent. No more Blood Artist or Bastion of Remembrance. I do gain red, though, so say hello to Purphoros, God of the Forge. Rhys the Redeemed or Nemata, Primeval Warden would be even more restricted, as token decks go.

My removal also suffers, since red removal is surprisingly bad in this format. (Seriously, I'd argue white has the best removal, followed closely by black. Green's a distant third, and red and blue are tied for fourth: Red has more removal, blue has better removal.)

And it happens between Oloro, Ageless Ascetic, Betor, Ancestor's Voice, Ayli, Eternal Pilgrim, Beledros Witherbloom, and Licia, Sanguine Tribune too. All are lifegain, but only Oloro can use Absorb and Drogskol Reaver. Only Licia can use Lightning Helix and Searing Meditation. Only Betor can use Beledros Witherbloom. Ayli and Witherbloom are even more restricted, especially since Witherbloom can't use the color that's best at lifegain.

But that's the whole point. When I choose a Commander, I make a lot of choices regarding deck construction. I can't say "Cathars' Crusade would be good in my Animar, Soul of Elements deck." because, well, it wouldn't; it would be illegal. That forces me to pick, I don't know, Ivy Lane Denizen or Forgotten Ancient instead. Corpsejack Menace? You mean Branching Evolution? (Aside from the name, why is Corpsejack Menace {B} anyway? I actually wouldn't mind if it were {G}{U} just because that's Simic's thing.) And so on down the line.

Five-color goodstuff opts to ignore all of this. And right now, there are more five-color decks in EDH than in Legacy.

Eh, I can always just hate them out with Primal Order.

That's my rant about how too much five-color goodstuff is bad for the game.

Anyway, I play Aura Shards and Seedborn Muse in a lot of decks too. Aura Shards is really oppressive in a token build, or even a reanimator build. Seedborn Muse is interesting because she's either overpowered (anything {G}{U}, token builds, Yeva, Nature's Herald) or just a fancy Village Bell-Ringer without the Splinter Twin combo. I have to go through my decks now and see which ones have four or more game changers.

vasarto77 on Making a halloween deck. Need …

1 month ago

So, I made a halloween deck a long time ago. I don't want to delete it off this website because its a fun casual deck idea. But after all these years I think enough new cards and ideas have passed to where I can make a new version, a better version.

Basically, the idea is to use the reaper king as the commander to open all 5 colors. I don't think I wanna use scarecrows since even with changelings there are basically none of them. It will rely a lot of zombies and maybe spiirts and graveyard recurssion. I have a few cards I haven't listed yet but basically anything that will work well with the strategies and still be halloween themed is great. I got two wincons in this deck so far. One which includes Intruder Alarm and Splinter Twin on the broom to basically re-enact the scene from the old disney film called Fantasia. Also the triskadeckaphile and tree of perdition combo. But no other combos, yet.

Hopefully this will work. It's set to private and prototype right now and needs a lot more choices. I think I got the mana base worked out but suggestions there is good, even if it's just a specific printing of a card with better themed fitting artwork.

DECK!

It's less efficient of a pump spell than what you have, but Vines of Vastwood is still worth playing for the versatility. It's a 1 mana counterspell against Splinter Twin and anything else where your opponent needs to target their own creature to go off.

DemonDragonJ on Modern Banlist

With December 16's banned and restricted announcement, I have removed Faithless Looting, Green Sun's Zenith, Mox Opal, and Splinter Twin from this list and added Amped Raptor, Jegantha, the Wellspring, and The One Ring to this list, and I am very sorry that I took so long to update it, as I have been very busy, with Christmas approaching.

wallisface on Could Uro come back to …

6 months ago

For what its worth, i went through the modern banlist and made a list of cards i’d rather see unbanned because they’d be less toxic than Uro (note this doesn’t mean i actually want any of these unbanned, just that i think they’d be less broken).

• Ancient Den
• Blazing Shoal
• Deathrite Shaman
• Fury
• Golgari Grave-Troll (3rd time lucky right?)
• Great Furnace
• Green Sun's Zenith
• Grief
• Ponder
• Punishing Fire
• Seat of the Synod
• Seething Song
• Splinter Twin
• Tree of Tales
• Vault of Whispers
• Violent Outburst (this one feels super close/adjacent).
• Yorion, Sky Nomad (not that this one’s on the banlist for a power reason though - and imo it should defo stay banned)

Crow_Umbra on New Hub Suggestion

7 months ago

Hub pages all have descriptions at the top. From the Twin hub page -

"an infinite combo deck that combines Splinter Twin or Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker with a creature that untaps another creature when it enters the battlefield, which generates an arbitrarily high number of creature tokens with haste."
