If my commander is blue and gets put back in my hand can I put it in the command zone after I pitch it to Force of Will?

JawnV6 posted:It's also at instant speed? Or at least a player can't choose to move it while another spell is resolving, only after, which matters for things like Breach the Multiverse. Everyone mills 10, caster gets to take a creature/planeswalker from each gy. If a commander is milled it's a valid target, the owner can't exile it to the command zone and save it. It happens anytime a player would gain priority and does not use the stack. So yes if a commander was tucked into a library and left there and you cast Breach the multiverse they wouldn’t get to react because nobody gains priority during a spells resolution.

I’m incredibly nervous and excited to play my Umbris Fear Manifest deck I put together tonight. It’s the first deck I’ve built besides tweaking pre-cons and it lost last week though I didn’t have all the singles I ordered from TCG yet. By next week, I’ll have Oblivion Sower and Web of Inertia to ramp and provide some safety. I have most of the staples covered but does anyone run Umbris that has suggestions?

It’s the first deck I’ve built besides tweaking pre-cons and it lost last week though I didn’t have all the singles I ordered from TCG yet. Not sure what the staples are, necessarily, but things like Praetor's Grasp, Gonti, and Opposition Agent might let you increase the number of cards in exile while possibly sniping something saucy out of their decks. There's also all the Eldrazi with Ingest and Sire of Stagnation if you wanted something big that both draws you cards and exiles theirs. E: Leyline of the Void seems like an easy include, if you don't already have it. Nihil Spellbomb can let you eat a big graveyard and draw you a card. Unlicensed Hearse is a good way to keep graveyards empty, exile piles full, and can beat in a pinch. Oh, and can't forget Dauthi Voidwalker.

Nihil spell bomb and sire of stagnation in my deck now. Waiting on dauthi voidwalker and leyline of the void to arrive for more graveyard hate. Unlicensed hearse looks very interesting. My main uphill battle is casting Umbris makes me public enemy number one at the table so I have some protection artifacts for him but might include propaganda.

Maybe I will. ImLost both 5 player pods tonight to Uril the Miststalker and Tatsunari Toad rider. Initial deck impressions are good. One shotted a player with a 27/27 commander damage Umbris but both games I kept pulling nothing but lands and had no blockers. Gotta get Web of Inertia in my deck to shut down creatures attacking me and might be more patient playing Umbris until I have Swiftfoot boots or whispersilk cloak to attach to him for protection. Also, had an amazing opening hand round 2 with Island > Sol Ring > Spellskite which immediately angered the table lol

Now that Ravenloft Rogue could definitely have some gas. Completing dungeons with my Party Time deck has won me a couple games and this card reminds me of a Guiltfeeder that does damage off exiled card instead of graveyard cards.

So, I've been trying to spruce up a couple old commander decks to play casually at my LGS. 2 of my most complete decks right now are Scion of the Ur-Dragon, and... Brion Stoutarm. Scion is a pretty linear deck, since you're constantly tutoring dragons into the graveyard, so I want to make sure its not going to be too un-fun to play against. I'm also kinda keeping it budget so the manabase is awful. I have a few shock lands and a triome or 2, a couple random fetch lands, and a lot of the nonbasic lands come into play tapped. The mana rocks are mostly guild signets from OG ravnica and sol ring. Ancient Copper Dragon is 50 goddamn dollars. My deck doesn't have any combo stuff really. Currently, my dragon toolkit includes the OG kamigawa dragons that do fun things when they die Utvara Hellkite - currently the only thing that makes dragon tokens so I need this early and need it to not die Balefire Dragon - boardwipe Quicksilver Dragon - Don't touch my commander please Karrthus, Tyrant of Jund - in case anyone else has dragons (how dare they) also giving everything I mass-reanimate haste Numot, The devastator - looking to replace him because people get weird about land destruction, but considering he can only do 2 a turn, I'd mostly want to deal with utility lands or man lands Dragon Tyrant - Double strike, can kill people. Dromar, the Banisher - selective boardwipe, kinda eh on him. Atarka, World Render - Double strike, but for everyone! Dragonlord Ojutai - hexproof for my commander Bladewing the Risen - reanimate. Currently no combo or anything with him. Scourge of Kher Ridges - selective boardwipe Steel Hellkite - extremely selective boardwipe Teneb, the Harvester - reanimation Hellkite Overlord - he big Hellkite Charger - need a savage ventmaw or khamal's will or something to go infinite. Other than dragons, I have a bunch of ramp/fixing, some utility like Mirari's Wake, Temur Ascendancy, Fires of Yavimaya, Lightning Greaves, 9 reanimation spells, and a bunch of boardwipes and targeted removal. I kinda want to throw some hexproof in there, like Heroic Intervention, and some countermagic, like 1 counterspell and 1 negate at least. I know there's room for improvement, but I don't want to improve it too much, and I'm not gonna add like, $50 or even $30 cards unless I already have them. If I was gonna buy some more cards for this, I'd maybe want Ancient Silver Dragon (kinda expensive, but good enough that I might), Miirym, Lathliss, . I'm also wondering if I should add something like Worldgorger Dragon combo or something or if that would be too powerful (for reference I have no idea how people determine power levels for edh decks). I'll also work on getting my current list posted online so I can link to it. But mostly just looking for advice on what stuff to avoid ( is too powerful/unfun) when I'm playing with people I don't know.
