EDH deck not legal?
TappedOut forum

Hi,
Maybe this is obvious and I'm just dumb but can anyone tell me why this deck is showing as not legal for EDH? Elspeth, Sun's Champion and Champion of Wits are both highlighted in red, but they should be fine? The deck has 98 cards + 2 commanders, all the cards meet Zirda's requirement, nothing off-colour. I'm stumped.
9 times out of 10, if a card is showing as illegal on T/O then it's just a glitch in the legality of the card within the T/O database. As long as your list complies with the banlist under https://mtgcommander.net/index.php/banned-list/ then you're fine.
To test, I would recommend creating a second list but not adding Zirda to it and see what the result is. If you don't get any errors then I would recommend dropping a line on the Missing/Incorrect Cards/Tokens Thread which is there for reporting all these kind of errors in the T/O card database.

I could be wrong but I feel like maybe its something to do with the fact that there is a commander and a companion. Does the companion count as one of the hundred cards? Sorry if this is completely wrong sorry but maybe worth looking into?

And for some reason Elspeth comes up red in the deck if you haven't noticed

Champion of Wits was an easy fix, for some reason tappedout didn't have a keyword for Eternalize in it's system.
Elspeth is confusing me though, all it's info is correct so I don't know why it isn't translating properly but other planeswalkers are.

Femme_Fatale I'm having trouble with my EDH deck as well with Zirda as companion. I have 4 legal cards showing up as illegal. Biomancer's Familiar, Sigarda, Heron's Grace, Hoofprints of the Stag, and Teyo, the Shieldmage.

I honestly have no idea why they would not be legal. Maybe try taking out elspeth and the champion and re-adding them? You could also just upload the deck and the legality of the cards won't really matter.
