Are people even running tutors to find their commanders and not to find the cards they need in their 100 card singleton decks?

lol if you're playing commander and this rule makes you mad because now you can't beat the decks that should combo off too fast to be vulnerable to tuck effects anyways (aka what you should be playing if you had any clue what you were doing)

Baffles me even more that I know several people who play nothing but edh 1v1 edric is the true essence of magic, and if people would play against it with their garbage commander decks all day I would rather do that than play any other format tbh

EDH is a circlejerking format, it's bad if you circlejerk with only one buddy. you have two hands, use them people!

There's nothing more wonderful than getting multiple triggers out of Goblin Matron using Cloudstone Curio, Warstorm Surge, Pandemonium, and Confusion in the Ranks. Also, Purphoros and the newly gifted Impact Tremors. And all I need to do is cast Norin once and wait. People will play dudes and swing with dudes. Nor in does everything else. Also, your favorite combination is Nor in, Genesis Chamber, and Confusion in the Ranks. I have never seen so many people afraid of Confusion in the Ranks in my life.

Baffles me even more that I know several people who play nothing but edh French 1v1 is actually an amazingly diverse format where about 20 different dudes make up the top tier. If you want to play "Ux control" you've got Narset, Tasigur, Wydwen, Nin, and Thraximundar as choices for this, all of which play differently from each other. I'm waiting for Tiny Leaders to develop a real cool metagame since it seems to be kind of the same except with Anafenza and Geist doing donuts in the parking lot and I want to know if I'm way off.

Unfortunately Force of Will is not tiny leaders compatible, but you know what is? Wasteland. And it'll be uncommon for a printing like that like it should be.

I like how they got rid of tuck to mitigate the need to play tutors, instead of just getting rid of the stupid loving tutors in the first place. Survival of the Fittest is not banned in a singleton format lol.

100cs is actually a really fun format with a lot more sensible banlist than EDH and I wish more people played it.

vOv posted:What's the Pyxis trick? Pyxis exiles the top card of all libraries face-down. Since you can't look at the cards and they remain face-down until you actually use the Pyxis' second ability if it gets their Commander they can't get it back. If anyone could look at the cards it would be sent immediately to the Command Zone. This is why Praetor's Grasp-ing a Commander doesn't work. You get to look at the card so if you take a Commander you're forced to reveal it and give it back. It's kinda dumb. Cernunnos fucked around with this message at 05:22 on Mar 24, 2015 |

Some of us enjoy using Survival to get all the Praetors in the graveyard followed by Living Death thank you very much.

It's like the ultimate end game for anyone who has ever said "netdeck" unironically.

Just ban all cards that let you search your library. Problem solved.

theironjef posted:What do you ban when you ban tutors though? Stuff with [whatever]cycling? How about the Sliver Overlord? I mean not literally every tutor needs to be banned, but I don't see why they don't try and take out easy repeatable tutors like survival/ fauna shaman or really cheap powerful ones like demonic/vamp. I don't see Sliver Overlord as a problems because he only searches for slivers, so he keeps it kind of limited and he is your commander so you build around him. It's just super lame to play against some bant value/goodstuff deck that just tutors up silver bullets or efficient boring threats.

As a sliver overlord edh player, I will now refer to tutor targets as sliver bullets.

Would Cabal Therapy be fair game as a card that could see a reprint, functional or otherwise, at some point in the future in Standard?

I think Cabal Therapy is probably too good for Modern, but might be fine for Standard or if they want Modern to be 100% Abzan Hellscape forever. Therapy seems good in a format where Lingering Souls is playable.

I think the "Cabal" part would probably disqualify it due to ~flavor reasons~ or whatever unless Cabal is a generic enough term for them to just reprint it as-is.
