Mortlocke on MASSIVE EDH RC ban list …

1 month ago

legendofa,

"A fair statement, but sergiodelrio's comment isn't?"

I never once said sergiodelrio's statement was unfair, I said it was wrong. His statement was implying that every individual who attempts to build a deck is a literal robot who constructs decks only by spreadsheets and numbers. In truth, that's a passionate minority of players - as you said. If the cEDH community (the frequency of their events, and overall representation) is any measure to go by, then few individuals are likely to go out and buy the aforementioned banned cards.

"So I don't see this representing a cascade of high-profile mana rock bans at all."

What I was saying was that Pandora's box is open. Sure, the RC was sparse with their bans - but that's because Commander is fundamentally different from Standard, Pioneer, Modern, Legacy etc. because it's an eternal format not under the direct purview of Wizards AND it's considered "casual". It has no GPs and no organized tournaments. There were a lack of bans not because the RC is lenient - it's because they're not necessary. But now that the box is open, it's clear that there's a chance that bans may not come for the "health of the community" but to serve as a new means of generating more consumer interest in future product.

But Mana Crypt is a relic of the early overpowered days, almost on par with the original Moxen, and Jeweled Lotus was an experiment that arguably was allowed to continue for too long.

Wrong. Mana Crypt isn't a relic - it was the poster child of chase rares in Commander. Fierce Guardianship & Friends, The Great Henge, The One Ring, Smothering Tithe, Force of Negation - this card may be old but Mana Crypt very much matches the design philosophy of today. Most importantly, over the course of EDH/Commander's history it has been constantly marketed in just about every premium product Wizards has ever produced. Also Jeweled Lotus was not an experiment. It was an unapologetic cash grab. Do you think the price tag would have been justified for Commander Masters without the inclusion of some stupid high priced rare? Need I remind you that the Commander Masters collector's booster box came with only 4 packs, and at the time of release commanded a $379.99 asking price?

What would you expect this new hyper-powered hotness to do? It's got be colorless, and if it's a mana rock, it needs to be nearly or more efficient as Sol Ring. Do you expect this card to be printed in the near-but-vague future?

I'm not really good at thinking up cards. I assume that when it shows up it will get the community talking and most importantly - excited. I'm sticking with my spitball number of about 12 months or so for this card to show up and of course only be accessible through some sort of premium product.

Here are my suggestions buddy !

Draw : Guardian Project,The Great Henge,Tireless Tracker,Horn of Greed

Double mana : Nyxbloom Ancient

Huge monster : Cultivator Colossus,Primeval TitanAvenger of Zendikar

And Jetmir's Garden is also nice

I've found a similar decklist years ago and still play it (Zacama is Nutz) if you want to give a check. Anyway, you made a very good brew here and enjoy the game !

For your strategy, I'd focus on either infect or +1/+1 counters since the list seems to be a bit "busy" with too much going on. Once you choose which way you'd like to take the deck, we can further tweak - proliferation will still be central to your overall plan.

Here are some suggestions by color that you might want to consider adding to your mainboard:

:

Heroic Intervention, Nature's Lore, The Great Henge, Three Visits.

:

Akroma's Will, Flawless Manuever, Smothering Tithe, Teferi's Protection, Trouble in Pairs.

:

Cyclonic Rift, Fierce Guardianship, Mana Drain, Swan Song.

Permission Denied

I think you can get away with swapping out removing some counter spells as it seems a bit overkill - Cancel, Dispel, Envelop, Negate, and Nullify could probably come out in favor of Fierce Guardianship, Mana Drain, and Swan Song (the others could just be cut).

For your land base, I'd work the following lands in to help with your color wheel:

Fetch Lands: Flooded Strand, Misty Rainforest, Windswept Heath

Filter Lands: Flooded Grove, Mystic Gate, Wooded Bastion

Pathways Lands: Barkchannel Pathway  Flip, Branchloft Pathway  Flip, Hengegate Pathway  Flip

Shock Lands: Breeding Pool, Hallowed Fountain, Temple Garden

Tri-Cycle Land: Spara's Headquarters

True Duals: Savannah, Tropical Island, Tundra

For mana rocks, I prefer the talismans over the signets:

Talisman of Curiosity, Talisman of Progress, Talisman of Unity

I think your Kros, Defense Contractor list is in a good spot, it just needs to be a little more focused.

Elephant Wolf

Creature - Wolf Elephant

Deathtouch, trample, vigilance

Whenever Elephant wolf attacks choose one:

  • Each wolf you control fights, 1 target creature your opponent controls

  • Search your library for up to x basic forest cards and put them into your hand, where x is the number of elephants you control,

"On Ikoria the only thing brushwaggs fear is fear itself. It would be wise if they chose more sensible things to be scared of"

4/5


The last time I played standard was really just after Ikoria. It really was not a healthy meta because whilst there was deck diversity it was just so fast and control decks also where so good (meaning games would take forever to play)

I played a mono-green "pushed green mythic rares go brrrr" deck with stuff like Questing Beast and Gemrazer and the killer The Great Henge. It wasn't as good as the control decks but it did win in a reasonable amount of time. So this card is just another mythic rare green creature with pushed stats.

Next challenge create an elephant tribal card

Mirri, Weatherlight Duelist -> Second Harvest

The Second Doctor -> Patron of the Orochi
Rhystic Study -> Murkfiend Liege
Heroes' Podium -> Sakashima the Impostor
Swiftfoot Boots -> Sakashima of a Thousand Faces
Neoform -> Awakening
Beast Within -> Sundering Growth

Some others you might like: Wake the Reflections, Phyrexian Metamorph, Idol of Oblivion

Animar Horde 4

Commander / EDH leon_bulminot

So this is the...4th or 5th or 100th iteration? I'm honestly not sure. But 4th decklist I put up.

So!!! Main goal of this deck is interaction. My interaction with the opponents is smacking you with Animar. My counterspells are reducing life to 0. My ramping is how many +1 counters can I stack on Animar before my hand runs out.

Jokes aside, the philosophy of this deck is "I'm playing Magic. You're playing Magic. I don't care what you do. I'm playing Magic on my turn. Because my turn is my turn, no matter what you play."

Obviously that has some downsides to interaction with the board. The upside is that it definitely lessens a focus on worrying about what your opponents will counter and more about who looks like they're bleeding the most, and how to get more.

Trying to focus a bit more on creatures doimg things, which is why if a creature could do it, I replaced artifacts and sorceries and instants with Creatures.

Kami of the Crescent Moon replaced Howling Mine. Mana equivalent or less is what I tried to go for. Hence why no Gaea's Cradle. I am pondering The Great Henge but I'm not sure how I'd manage it for now.

Hello julsjuj,

Thanks for the response. Just to clear up, in point 5 when I said Brood, meant a general term for your Hive of Slivers, not the card Brood Sliver specifically lol. General comment was would be helpful knowing what your overall win con is going to be in the deck? How you are looking to play the deck out. Are you Aggro, combo, Voltron? Goof thing with Slivers is there ability to shift lanes, as Sliver Overlord gives you access to a toolbox of abilities etc to deal with most things.

I think concerning Patriarch's Bidding we may have to agree to disagree lol. If you have had your board wrecked a couple times, you could feasibly have a combo win in the graveyard that you can win at instant speed, for just . Any haste enabler, Mana Enabler, and a piece of tech on board (an intruder alarm for example) and you just win lol. I udnerstand the concern that someone will benefit more, but I think it is highly likely that in playing such a high synergy deck, you are likely to come out on top.

I do still think that you are maybe missing on some draw effects. Other than the Synapse Sliver you have, you could look at Kindred Discovery, Guardian Project, The Great Henge (this one will likely only cost you with its cost reduction), Sylvan Library, just so you can keep you hand filled with gas.

I look forward to your response :)
