Is there like a general consensus on black-border un-cards? I feel like it's reasonable to say "nuh-uh, absolutely not," but maybe I'm a fun-hater whose finger isn't on the pulse of the player base at large

Technically legal as long as they don't have the acorn stamp but they can be a mess to play with. I believe the Mind Goblin gets played in cEDH as a ritual. E: I'm gonna be annoyed as gently caress when some dickhead plays Pramikon and then drops a Space Beleren onto the battlefield.

Sorry, always gotta be clear with MyG posting. I've already ran into quite a few crazy expensive tokens, IIRC most recent one was just the shrine token for my Shrine commander deck. I predict some of these Aftermath tokens might end up in the same place because lol buying mouse turd booster packs, let alone to chase a token. Have they done a serialized token yet?

Oooh would you mind linking your shrine deck? I just started making one after I discovered that's a thing. I had a Honden deck (that was very terrible) when they first released and figured this could be a fun successor.

I opened a set booster that had all the Kamigawa go shintai shrines and I basically just built the deck adding all the shrines besides maybe a few really crap ones and filled out with edhrec stuff. I had fun every time I played it, I love the idea of tearing apart my opponents with... A bunch of fancy haunted gazebos Might wanna ignore my manabase, I force the singleton rule on myself for lands because I like it.

Well, after sticking to drafts and limited for years I finally tried out commander at my local shop. I was totally beat down but it may have been my fault for telling them to use their best deck (Kinnan) so I could get a feel for how the games might go when I wasn't playing at a kitchen table. Does anyone have recommendations for my Lathril deck? I know I need a craterhoof at some point, but not sure if there are cheaper alternatives. Also plan on picking up Patriachs Bidding to help against boardwipes, wasn't sure if I should toss in one on my old Caller of the Claws. https://www.moxfield.com/decks/qMhffccgsUCkSF1yvKeyag

So turns out I don't have a Reckoner Bankbuster, that's why it's not in the deck. Huh. On the subject of un-cards, a friend made a Myra the Magnificient attractions deck and it actually looks like a lot of fun.

Nobody needs Craterhoof because it's loving boring Besides, Lathril has way better ways of winning than that, like Vitalize/Mobilize on Isochron Scepter and Bolas' Citadel, for one. Also, Allosaurus Shepherd, Elvish Warmaster and Ezuri, Renegade Leader are way better than Hoof in this deck, and even the new Nissa is a good option. gently caress a hoof, shits dull as hell

Using Lathril's ten to the dome ability which utilizes the commander and some jank cards to get a win is way more fun and unique than hoof, which is generic and dull and goes into any deck with forests and a handful of shitters on the field Edit: Craterhoof is the arcane signet of overruns

I mean, the end result is the same. You either win or you don't, and there's no harm in having various avenues to victory.

Got myself a couple collector boosters as a self-reward for saving money elsewhere. Didn't make my money back, but this is Magic, so that was never in the cards. No pun intended. I guess. Did get showcase Urabrask, foil Baral and Kari Zev, and foil showcase Aurelia. That's about the only money. Did get some gorgeous dirt-cheap cards like foil showcase Aegar and an insanely pretty foil Brudiclad. Also a foil ordinary frame who-gives-a-poo poo mountain because WotC said "gently caress you, Nehru."

I was totally beat down but it may have been my fault for telling them to use their best deck (Kinnan) so I could get a feel for how the games might go when I wasn't playing at a kitchen table. On top of the other comments: More card draw imo - if I count correctly, you've got two sorcery ones and three creatures that draw on either ETB or LTB (plus a couple of conditional card advantage ones) . Shamanic Rev, Rishkar's Expertise, Return of the Wildspeaker are very good for "creatures matter ones", or ones on a permanent like Guardian Project (Garruk's Uprising won't do much for an elf deck, Tribute to the World Tree will buff your dudes which tbh might be worth it). There's also plenty of black card draw that's better than Harmonize like Sign in Blood. There's also tutors - you have a couple of creature based ones and I wouldn't recommend just filling your deck with stuff like Vampiric Tutor, but stuff like Threats Undetected is both card advantage and should never feel completely busted because of the restriction. There's a few Elves you've missed out on that would be good, like Circle of Dreams Druid, Underrealm Lich and Fyndhorn Elves. Abomination of Llanowar is still a threat after a boardwipe. (Oh, and if you're playing Deathrite Shaman you probably also want to be playing more fetch lands (even the cheap ones like Evolving Wilds) in order to be able to more reliably use it as a mana dork) You may also want some more interaction - it depends on the pod, but if you're going to go "play your best deck please" then you need more for sure.

pseudanonymous posted:https://www.moxfield.com/decks/vCL6BR6xOUut00lezXvBqA I'd probably cut both Ozolith cards, the Swiftfoot Boots (run Lightning Greaves if you really have to), Tribute to the World Tree, and probably Defense of the Heart. I'm not sure Chord of Calling or the three cmc Beast Within/Generous Gift are playable (if this is meant for cEDH). I'd add Gamble, maybe Autumn's Veil. Path to Exile might be worth a spot, Emiel and/or Temur Sabertooth. Trinisphere is another powerful stax piece, and Survival of the Fittest if you're going to run Fauna Shaman. Red gives you access to Pyroblast/Red Elemental Blast, and Naya gives you the narrower Guttural Response. Oh, and Drannith Magistrate.

I'm kind of torn on how I specifically want to build the deck. There's a part of me that likes the idea of just having big/wide beats as a backup plan (and thus packing things to really enhance the +1/+1s), but that may be a more casual build. I think combo/stax is the way to go for cEDH, but I think there's a way to work combat in as a pivot.

I don't wanna belabor this because it's not gonna ruin the game or anything -- but I do think it's fair to draw a distinction between squirrels or emergent silliness like boots-on-ooze versus clown robots and sticker matters.

I forgot I'd pre-ordered the Cavalry Charge precon cause I liked the Commander. I think this one can be upgraded to be good fairly easily, no? Anyway, I'll look for the missing cards for my Greasefang deck gradually. Gotta stop spending money at some point lol.

Most of the standalone cards are fine, and sometimes even pretty good (Pair O’ Dice Lost in a lands recycling deck for example). I can understand some groans for a stickers or attractions deck, but they’re nowhere near as bad as day/night cards, or Urza’s Oops-All-Karnstructs decks.
