Top 10 blue cards at 6 cmc

Commander (EDH) forum

Posted on Feb. 8, 2021, 10:21 a.m. by griffstick

We are back for another top ten at 6 cmc. Last time it was red. This time its blue. Only one more after this and that's colorless.

Last time the users voted that the best red card at 6 cmc is Fiery Emancipation . That list is here top 10 mono red cards @ 6 cmc

For mono white. The users voted that Sun Titan deserved the #1 spot. that list is here top 10 mono white cards @ 6 cmc.

The users voted that Seasons Past was the top #1 green card at 6 cmc. The link to that list is here top 10 mono green cards @ 6 cmc.

The top black card at 6 cmc was Bolas's Citadel the link to that list is here top 10 mono black cards @ 6 cmc


So the rules are to post a comment of a blue card at 6 cmc and the people will upvote it. The cards with the most upvotes will get the # spot. I will update the top 10 list daily.


Your comment/comments should look something like this...

My favorite blue card at 6 cmc is Waterwhirl .

It shouldn't look like this.

My favorite card is this card and that card and also this card but I think this card is the best.


More rules.

  • If you want to submit multiple cards, comment multiple times. Only one card per submission.
  • Upvote whatever cards you agree to be in the top ten.
  • Dont be afraid to upvote multiple cards.
  • You may make comments on other suggested cards and you may talk about the top cards list. But keep your card suggestions separate.
  • X spells are excluded.
  • You may tag friends to join the conversation/debate.
  • Only blue cards at 6 cmc will be considered for the top 10.
  • You may talk about other cards outside of blue and outside of 6 cmc but they will not be considered for the top 10.
  • Cards that are multiple colors will not be excepted. Including hybrid mana.
  • Cards banned in edh will not be considered for the top 10.
  • If the submitted card has the same amount of upvotes as another card. I will make a judgment call on witch one I feel deserves the higher spot in the top 10.
  • S stands for super. For the 1 card that I chose to represent the best card that's banned in edh.
  • If theres a draw. For instance. If a card has 5 upvotes, and another card has 5 upvotes, and one of them I have upvoted, and the other I have not upvoted. The card I have not upvoted counts as 5½ or 5.5 for those using the metric system.

Yeah Sublime Epiphany is nice lol. It's an even more versatile, albeit more expensive, Cryptic Command .

MagicMarc sorry for the double post of Draining Whelk ; in my rush to post all these cards I didn't notice you had already mentioned it.

Arcanis the Omnipotent is probably my favorite draw blue draw spell. It is both bursty and can be repeated turn after turn after turn.

Giant Shark is one of my favorite blue creatures, though it’s tough (especially in blue) to utilize. Great theme, and a fun blast from the past.

MagicMarc says... #42

I had a set of Giant Shark s in a deck that used Prodigal Sorcerer to trigger their ability before combat. I would chortle like a crazy person while doing it too, I think!

February 8, 2021 9 p.m.

MagicMarc I love it! Sometimes I daydream about how, now that double-Strike is a thing, there will be some pro that stuns the world with an Azorious aggro deck with Giant Shark at the helm. One can dream...

Giant shark has some good flavor. I mean its name is giant shark lol. And keep the upvotes coming everybody you'll have until friday befor I stop updating the list.

Hey griffstick, I think you missed Forced Fruition and Guile ; the former has 6 likes and the latter has 5.

February 9, 2021 10:36 a.m.

you know when you were doing red i made a bet with my friend then when you move to blue it would be Deadeye Navigator and he said it would be Consecrated Sphinx , and here we are today i see this thread and there both at 11.. i guess you all know were my vote is going :)

February 9, 2021 2:40 p.m.

Ramble you know you can vote as many times as you'd like, right? To be fair both are more than deserving, though if I had to choose between the two I'd go with Consecrated Sphinx ; the combos enabled by Deadeye Navigator are numerous and potent, but Consecrated Sphinx simply has more universal application, and is no slouch in terms of power on its own either. The navigator is simply too dependent on interactions with other cards to be considered ahead of the sphinx in my opinion.

channelfireball12345 o no doubt, and i completely agree how ever i have 5 dollars on the line so.....

but as a consultation i once casted Fractured Identity on Consecrated Sphinx thinking about how that resolved should make you feel happy
