Okay but what if you turn Nicol Bolas God Pharaoh into an artifact and then equipment, and then attach him to the creature Nicol Bolas and kill someone with it.

Then you win

On our way home nestled in a corner of my tree in the front yard was this lil guy.

We played against Oloro stax while my GF played Rin and Seri Cat/Dog and I played Mono White Voltron modified from the '14 precon.

Lost a bunch had a good time, and this kitty's name is Naya.

She is barely 4 weeks old. In good health and spirits we will give her a good home.

I need to just not play that particular combo and save it for when Elesh Norn's on the board. But Ghostly Prison would work well enough in that niche case, but I'm unsure if it's worth running beyond that. Pillowfort cards don't seem to have as many use cases in cEDH as it would in high power.

I considered it, but it didn't make the cut. Could easily slot it in tho.

I mostly just run sphere of safety to protect Estrid but it's definitely not a cEDH deck.

Elephant Grass is intriguing. This deck doesn't need a lot of time to pop off, so once that's down the CU shouldn't be so bad?

For cEDH to me it's like if you're not ending the game in 2-3 turns someone else is, or better be. And the turn you resolve whatever you don't need to pay for the upkeep so.

Heath posted:

Not to interrupt Discourse but there's a card that has been burning in the back of my brain for the pure jank potential and I want to get some feedback on it. That card is



Bludgeon Brawl.

I want to equip the dumbest poo poo possible onto my creatures and go to town. But I need a strategy. And it has to be dumb. Not good necessarily, but functional and stupid.

As such I've settled on a few things:

1) the deck must be at least red, obviously, but I need a way to consistently get BB out and protect it. As such, I am leaning towards Boros to splash some white in and get Enchantment tutors and, where possible, include protection that white can offer to permanents.

2) I need artifacts. But I don't want to fill the deck entirely with equipment, because that's stupid. And not just any artifacts will do. I need to equip dumb poo poo.



I need to equip Vehicles.

I want to hit my opponents with the goddamn Parhelion II.

The point is not to crew the Vehicles. That is an option, but not the idea behind the deck. The idea is to hit people with them.

There are plenty of Boros creatures who benefit from equipping lots of stuff, or benefit other creatures when they have stuff equipped, or can slide equipment around for free. As long as BB is around, I should be able to make big creatures who are hitting opponents with fleet vessels and limousines because this game is stupid.

Artifact lands are also an option, because as far as I can tell there is nothing preventing me from giving Wyleth a Darksteel Citadel to smash with, except that it's got no Mana cost so it isn't going to benefit everything I equip it to.

The question here is what commander(s) do I start with? I am leaning towards Rograkh and Ardenn to make use of the keywords, but is there a better candidate? What can I use to protect Bludgeon Brawl?

What immediately comes to mind is Grixis Artifacts so you can run the Tezzeret that gives artifacts affinity, perhaps with Silas Renn and Vial Smasher as partners.

E: looking through high cmc Commander legal artifacts, Ingenuity Engine seems like a must run if you're looking for ways to keep artifacts from being destroyed or exiled and plan to generate a good number of artifact tokens. Mycosynth Lattice is a neat choice too, but that might be too high dollar for what you're planning.
