Johnny Truant posted:Lol that's amazing There are a few ways you can Make Playing Cards. My preferred way to Make Playing Cards is using Photoshop templates and sending the final images off to a company that will Make Playing Cards for you. There are different card finishes, and I'm actually pretty fond of the plastic playing card one because you can riffle shuffle like mad and not have to use sleeves, plus they're super durable. Also, they can't have the real Magic card back so there's no way they could be mistaken for a counterfeit.

Is Conquest the format where you get to scry X at the start of the game, where X is the number of players ahead of you?

Uuuuuh maybe, but everything I’m hearing on the back end is that Double Masters production is getting delayed because it’s basically causing riots amongst distributors lol. Every store in the Carolinas is already completely sold out of preorders. So we might not see a ton of these cards, lol, because Amazon direct is getting the lion’s share it seems like.

I know somebody linked a cube resource somewhere up thread so than you to whoever did that! I'll take a look at Cubeamajigs too, I know Prof had them as a sponsored content once or twice. Edit: actually I just went back a handful of pages and couldn't find a Cube hyperlink... is there a recommended website or something that has a list of good cubes and/or how to build them?

With the loss of Serra Sanctum in duel commander how hard did Sythis decks get hit? I haven't played in a couple months but Sythis is my deck of choice and I'm curious if it's worth pushing through. https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/20-06-22-sythis/ Obviously there's some pet cards in there but the general list is the same as others I've seen.

The Commander RC streams every Thursday and I think I'm gonna hop on the stream and ask them if they'd ever consider implementing that one awesome sounding scry rule.

Adding scry to the 2nd/3rd/4th players opening hand would dramatically impact cEDH. Letting the 4th seat storm player see 3 extra cards (and thereby extending their ability to keep greedy hands) feels like a lot

Devoted to playing and countering the strongest strategies the format will support. Take a look at these decks to get some ideas. These are very different than the usual decks many people play.

Storm decks don't Storm in cEDH anymore. They definitely don't in a format with no Sol Ring/Mana Crypt/Mox Diamond/Dockside.

Brain Freeze is literally one of the formats preeminent (Top 3) win conditions, and it’s manual by default because Breach requires it to be. But yeah, agree with your 2nd point, Storming in commander without 10+ mana positive cards is basically impossible.

Using Underworld Breach to repeatedly cast the same spells over and over from your graveyard feels like a stretch to call manual storm.

Not really, and besides that Brain Freeze is an instant so you can just respond to their effect by comboing off again and killing them anyway Edit: also if your Freezing out the table in all likelihood you have infinite mana and your entire deck to play with, it’s not as easy as just sleeving up an Ulamog Bust Rodd fucked around with this message at 14:11 on Jun 21, 2022 |
