Don’t waste money on the set but getting it for free is cool (Twitter not necessary but contest details are there): FYI: Twittter/X doesn't show anything but the linked tweet for people who aren't logged in. So Twitter is currently necessary to see the contest details unless you also link that tweet.

My Angel deck has arrived. If I'm lucky I'll get tot ry it tonight. I wonder which of the two commanders I should use. Edit: Apparently it'S better to use Giada isntead of Bruna or Gisela lol.

And if you meld to Brisela you don't get whichever half is your commander back which feels bad man. MasterBuilder fucked around with this message at 22:03 on Aug 22, 2023 |

I play a different meld deck and if the melded thing dies, both cards go to whatever zone, then next time I get priority I can put Mishra back in the command zone. I'm not following what's going on here, is that meld different?

The other half goes to the GY or exile.

With no special rules helping out meld cards as commanders, a cheap dork with upside is always going to beat out a body with some keywords.

Giada is KOS because the angel deck always loving curves out with t1 Speaker of the Heavens, t2 Giada, t3 Righteous Valkyrie and not long after you're facing down a bunch of buffed winged dipshits that want to share their love of jesus christ with you

If MtG angels were anything like biblical angels, their type would be horror, and they'd make the phyrexians want to gouge their...whatevers...out. Winged fantasy elves got nothing on christian angels.

I have a Giada deck and she's great. Additional benefits: people are reluctant to "waste" removal on a commander that can be recast for 4. Always having a turn two play makes it easier to hard mulligan for card draw

They used to make a big special tent for when God wants to show like a hairs worth of his glory or whatever and it sounded pretty dangerous but it's cool he used to be in touch with his fans

Thanks, I think I got a special art Giada somewhere I could use instead of the one that came with the deck. Oh, and I just had the most horrible thought. I got the Commander Masters, and with Rukarumel I could make a Slivdrazi deck.

Well speak of the Angel, I just won with my Giada deck tonight. The One Ring is a non-flavorful but very good addition to that deck (as I guess it is with so many decks). Drew it right on time, letting me not get murdered by the tokens player, meaning I could swing in the air for lethal next turn. Love my Sauron-corrupted angels.

Curio is my favorite janky combo card. It’s the lynchpin of my favorite high power (but super fragile) combo deck.

The faerie deck seems fairly solid for a precon even if its reprint value is kinda rear end. I'll probably pick it up. The fact that they didn't put a Spellstutter Sprite in the deck but a card called Spell Stutter is kinda dumb though. If any deck would ever want a fuckin Spellstutter Sprite, it's this one.

No Bitterblossom makes some sense from a marketing perspective, because why would they give you a guaranteed one in a precon when they can have whales throwing away tons of cash on boxes to crack packs chasing it and all the other high dollar reprints on the bonus sheet?
