DemonDragonJ on Don't Blink, or You'll Miss It!

I have replaced War Roomfoil with Alchemist's Refuge, since this deck does not have a major emphasis on gaining life, and already has sufficient methods for drawing cards.

How has playing with 40 lands been like for you with an avg 4.2 cmc? Have you considered swapping out 1-3 lands for either ramp or card draw? Speaking of lands, here are some lands you might find useful.

Castle Garenbrig - Ramp

Turntimber, Serpentine Wood  Flip - Big creature

War Roomfoil - Draw

Yavimaya Hollow - Regen + Politics

Beast Within - Removal

Deflecting Swat - Protection, politics. Redirect counterspells, targeted removal, extra turns and draw. Ability to bluff while tapped out is nice.

Heroic Intervention - Protection

Your creature choices seem solid like most xenagos decks. I do wonder how Realm Seakers and panglacial wurm have been playing for you, +1

I would drop the lands that aren't allowed in his deck for lands like War Roomfoil, Karn's Bastion, Boseiju, Who Endures, Scavenger Grounds, Opal Palace, Myriad Landscape, and Blighted Woodland. And for the ones that aren't allowed you can drop for just basic forests. Land count is pretty strong. For draw along with war room there is Garruk's Uprising, Guardian Project, Stocking the Pantry, Greater Good, Lifecrafter's Bestiary, Rishkar's Expertise (which feels like a flavor win), Return of the Wildspeaker, Beast Whisperer, and I would say Toski, Bearer of Secrets is surprisingly useful depending on how often you get through.

Hey, digging the deck. Few new good ones. Three Tree City, is a junior Cradle and Banner of Kinship is a 5 drop wincon with all the elves about. I also like War Roomfoil for some extra draw chances at very little downside. Survival of the Fittest if not out for budget.

I already have Minas Tirith and War Room in the manabase. Not really interested in fitting a third draw engine land in.

It could possibly replace War Room due to it producing and being a dig effect instead of a draw even though it has a chance of whiffing.

DreadKhan on Maga, Draining the Swamp

I think the general 'rule' around here is to never bring up politics in an existing discussion (or use it to harass people in their own spaces) because it's super off topic and poisons the well so to speak. I've got political decks (generally lefty stuff) and haven't had too much trouble, and I've seen people with some pretty right wing stuff that is acceptable on here.

In light of the present election I took another look at Maga, Traitor to Mortals and I was a bit surprised to realize (as you did) that it's a fairly playable card to build around. The card's name is objectively hilarious now, so I do wonder if it'll be a fun card to build, seeing this list illustrates the potential, but I have a few ideas that might be worth a look!

This might sound weird, but are you sure you want stuff like Exsanguinate and Torment of Hailfire? Ditto for Sanguine Bond stuff, I think you should leave in Exquisite Blood (it's amazing with your Commander), but I feel like making this a combo deck will make it much less fun to play (obviously ymmv, just my thoughts!). Anyways, your Commander already gives you an outlet for big mana, and with all your ramp it should be fairly easy to eliminate an opponent; have you thought about some Flash sources, maybe Emergence Zone and/or Vedalken Orrery? If Maga has Flash you can potentially hold up enough mana to eliminate an opponent that is about to win (or simply eliminate you!). I'd rather play against that than Torment of Hailfire!

I rarely regret including stuff like Night's Whisper and Sign in Blood, these can do a lot of work. I don't think I'd bother with the Fallen Empires one, but Subterranean Hangar is a fairly good card if you want to store mana, I look at it as a ramp card instead of a land. I'm not sure if it's too much of a hassle, but Diabolic Revelation is a pretty crazy tutor if you dig out more than 2 cards. Maybe War Roomfoil? Drana, Kalastria Bloodchief is a great sponge for extra mana, she can remove creatures (including blockers) and then hit the opponent like a truck. Morbid Opportunist can draw a decent number of cards. Once Maga is out either Scavenged Brawler or Mask of Griselbrand can offer a lot of value for mana, maybe Shadowspear? I don't know if you have enough Demons to make Liliana's Contract a viable win con (though TBH I think it's a reasonable one because it's so telegraphed, and more decks can interact with it) but it's also a good card draw effect. I can't decide if Mandate of Abaddon is worth it, if Maga is big he just wipes out EVERYTHING except himself, so he can probably kill a player the turn you play Mandate and swing.

Hope these ideas help!

Craeter on The Big Black Succ

Heya, I've been meaning to take a looksie at this one. This commander is super cool! The curve looks great and I can see you've put some thought into the construction and playtesting for this one.

My one question is how does it do for Draw? I see Ayara and the Castle, which is great, but perhaps it could do with some more? Skullclamp is pretty darn amazing in sac EDH decks, I'd defs recommend you consider adding that in here. War Roomfoil & Phyrexian Arena are also some possibilities.

DreadKhan on Jor Kadeen, the Prevailer Home Brew Deck

I'm not sure if you're interested in adjusting this at some point, but I often get ideas when I look over decks/test them out (and like the list enough to get a bit invested in it), so here's a few ideas I had, maybe something will spark your interest! Also, you're at 99 cards atm, if you add 1 more the deck will show as legal in Commander.

I have some decks that mix Voltron/Aggro, I have rarely been unhappy with Berserkers' Onslaught, even if you already have First Strike getting Double Strike also doubles everything on your board's power while attacking (you'll still have First Strike while blocking, which is still very useful imho). True Conviction is a White version with a bit more upside, but it's 6 mana, I think you could run both to get that Double Strike Anthem out more often. Scavenged Brawler is a weird new card that offers two uses, if you cast it it's a 4/4 artifact creature with a heap of upsides, but imagine using that on Jor! Vigilance and First Strike are AMAZING together. With your Average MV I wonder if Detective's Phoenix is worth a look? Haste and Flying for only is amazing later game, especially with an 8 power Commander! Rite of the Raging Storm is a weird card that synergizes with your Commander (an 8/1 is actually intimidating IMHO, and if you can give it Double Strike, it gets ugly...). Gisela, Blade of Goldnight is an interesting late game card, the effect is stronger than it looks, and it stacks with Double Strike. Two-Handed Axe and Inquisitor's Flail are nice equipment with First Strike.

If you like The Prydwn, maybe Parhelion II? If Jor is online it's 8 mana to swing for 22 by itself (well, with it's two Vigilance angels that each get +3), this also plays well with any power double effects. It is a LOT of mana fwiw, but it's a decent closer that only needs a pilot to work.

This is going to sound a bit crazy, but have you ever considered Harmonious Archon? This has big synergies with Jor (and any other anthems you have), maybe not ideal if you have opponents who have larger armies of smaller tokens? Oh, if people do tend to swarm you maybe Brave the Sands would help? It's very good with First Strike, as well as Jor's ability.

Liquimetal Torque is a neat mana rock that can help you get a problem card off the board (artifacts are more often removed), and with your Commander you could use this to gain access to an extra artifact to turn on The Prevailer in a pinch, I think that's enough use cases to matter. I have had fun with Torque + Gorilla Shaman, Viashino Heretic, and Devout Witness as permanents that can repeatedly remove problematic cards without generating too much salt. Since they're also creatures they offer you upside of being capable of swinging with +3 in a pinch. Great with Double Strike obviously!

Bonders' Enclave and War Roomfoil are pretty handy in a Boros list, especially with a Commander that turns on the Enclave. Enclave is pretty cheap ATM, War Room seems to get reprinted a lot so if it's too much it'll probably go down at some point.

Oh, just remembered, have you got a Transmogrifying Wand kicking around? This is an artifact that will stick around after you've removed 3 creatures with it, the only real drawback in my experience is that it costs 3 up front, though in practice this is often an upside because you can play it out whenever for Metalcraft, then use it to Ox a problem creature.
