I asked about making custom tokens in the main magic thread and they initially blew a gasket because I used the phrase "proxy tokens", but after reading through the thread is the mpc site good for smaller orders? I want to make funny custom pilot tokens out of stuff my friends made in Photoshop for me, with stupid memes from Gundam and Eva

Batterypowered7 posted:Put in a 504 card order from MPC. I did five cEDH decks (Adeline, Orvar, Tiviz, Marneus, and Kenrith), and five non-cEDH decks (Korvold, Shanna, Rafiq, 5c Allies, and Bust Rodd's Mutate deck with changes to the mana base). Used those 4 spare slots to take care of some DFCs that were causing issues with getting every card printed front and back. Do you have a link to the deck list for the Marneus Calgar deck?

My most bullshit deck is Shorikai so the yoji shinkawa SL was an instant buy for me as all those cards are in that deck and it suits it perfectly. I finally won a game against my friend's Brago Stacks deck in a pod via out bullshitting him with cedh staples and it felt good to not just get bullied the whole time via being unable to play. Displacer kitten, mana rocks, and cheap artifacts were the MVP of that game for me. But man it can sometimes feel so bullshit and calvinball compared to mid-high tier where I get to play funny cards instead of having to play good cards or else.

Batterypowered7 posted:So in cEDH, let's say you've got an opponent at a precariously low life total and it at least appears as if they won't be able to win any time soon, do you save them from an attack that might kill them (like with a Spirit token from Forbidden Orchard) in the hopes that they will contribute to stopping your other opponents, or do you let them die so there's one fewer opponent that could stop you? I'm very nice and not entirely cutthroat competitive so I'd let them live. But even in my strongest desire to win I'd still spare them in order to not draw threat from the other two people at the table.

I'd rather play against someone that says "ok I played these two cards and if you don't counterspell one of them then you all lose." than play against stacks where the wincon is that I just quit out of boredom after four hours while the rest of the pod is playing on their phone

What's a good source online for more spindown dice? I really like them for all sorts of tabletop games as I don't have to hunt for the numbers and none of the LGSs near me have a bucket of them for $0.50 each like they used to.

Khanstant posted:I should start cataloging my tokens. sleeving a commander deck just now, realized I didn't pickup any tokens for it. Looked up the appropriate ones for this deck and the next im making and jeez, I was expecting like 5-10 cents each. One was like 18, others 8, 6, 3. I dug through my token box and found a few, but the rest I'm just gonna make my own because feels silly to spend over a dollar for a dang token! the dry erase tokens are really good for stuff that's not super common or that you don't make often enough to spend money on I love using those dry erase tokens for keeping track of all the different types of counters in my Perrie deck. I jokingly call it "bookkeeping tribal" because of how many goofy counters are in that deck.

Batterypowered7 posted:I'm thinking about eventually having just a whole mess of proxied decks. I'm talking about all the two-color pairs, all the wedges/shards (minus Jund and Bant) , maybe even four-color and mono-color decks. I think I already have a few middle-of-the-road-ish decks with regards to power level, so I was hoping you would all share some of your favorite decks that meet any of the color criteria above that you would consider tuned/higher power without outright stepping into cEDH. Card price is obviously not an issue since these will be proxied. You can make any deck spicy and strong, or you can make it middle of the road. But my favorite commanders that lead to a fun theme that over performs are: Dina, Soulsteeper. golgari bullshit, instantly wins if you get exquisite blood out and there's a bunch of combos or grindy stacks like effects you can do. Shorikai. Get in the loving EVA, shinji. Aegar. I call it board wipe tribal as you draw cards from killing poo poo, so it's like mono red burn with a ton of blue control. Orzov stuff, I like the new commissar as it's funny to me to have her field execute my worthless tokens for card draw. Teysa is also a pretty common architype. Brago blinky etb bullshit Jetmir. The idea of him is he's an overrun effect in the command zone, so you make a bunch of creatures then kill every one. I figured the easiest way to do this is have something with haste out and then poop out a bunch of tokens with an X spell like grand crescendo. So I needed to ramp hard to get that to happen. Which gave me the idea to make it kinda group hug. Really it's the party deck. Everyone gets to have fun drawing cards, playing with double or triple mana, just the opposite of stacks really where you encourage people to play magic rather than shut them down. Then once the party has gone on long enough you call in the cleanup crew and have 16 4/1 tokens with vigilance, double strike, trample and often haste. It hangs at higher levels because people are greedy and will let you help them without realizing it's a trap.

LifeLynx posted:Kenrith's black ability is a mini All Hallow's Eve, so if you like that theme he's the best bet. Fair warning, everyone I know who's tried a Group Hug deck ended up regretting it and either taking it apart or adding some actual wincons. It's fun maybe once if no one at the table has seen it before. My own version of group hug is Jetmir where I let everyone draw cards, have double or triple mana, and just have a bunch of fun until I drop 16 tokens with haste on the board that are double strike, trample, vigilance and +3+0 to end the party. Group hug is fun.

Batterypowered7 posted:I've got a buddy that wants to try to deal as much damage as possible from a creature/creatures connecting. We were thinking of goofy rear end poo poo like Hydra Omnivore, some way to give it double-strike, and maybe some of those damage multipliers like Furnace of Rath. I thought Saskia might be a good Commander for such a deck. Have out some counter doublers like doubling season, branching evolution, kaldheim vorinclex, etc then cast body of research. Once that's out, cast some other doublers like hydras growth. Should be at least a 560/560 out the gate pretty easily. Or you can just use vorel of the hull clade and an infinite mana trigger with staff of domination to make anything with a +1/+1 go to infinity But for the largest finite amount of power on a creature you can't go wrong starting with body of research.

ChiTownEddie posted:I have two tribal decks (horrors and zombies) that play a bit differently, but I think I want a more spell slinger-y deck... probably Izzet? Does anyone have a fun recommendation to get me going? Otherwise I guess I'll start by using Niv and tossing a ton of instants and sorceries and trying to figure out a wincon haha. Aegar from kaldheim. Every one of your damaging spells that does excess damage makes you draw a card. Also there's a bit of giants and wizard tribal to it but really you're not going to let people play creatures as those get burned up into card draw. Wincons are pretty much trying to get a shitload of mana then nuke everyone with a fireball like effect, dualcaster mage + twin flame, and my favorite that I've yet to pull off is toralf and blasphemous act where the excess damage from the spell tramples over. Do note that excess damage means each instance of it, so you can lightning bolt a 1/1 to deal excess damage and then before it dies you can shock or gutshot or any other instant spell that does damage to that creature and then draw a card for each one of them.

Emperor was fun for the one time I played it, but I'm not dying to play it again. The one with different role cards that you give out can be fun but I played it at an annoying table and it might be more fun with fun people. Yet to play monarch in the middle but it seems interesting.

Batterypowered7 posted:I think I want Eriette to be the next deck I build. Have you all played against any spicy brews recently? I'm probably looking to make this one a 7-8, so not quite cEDH, but tuned well. I put this together and it's been fun to just grind people out and let them fight each other. Nothing super fancy about it but there's enough card draw and interaction to not just get poo poo on after people realize the effects of the curses. It needs a few more effects like ghostly prison, so I'll keep tinkering with it. https://www.moxfield.com/decks/AY_PoCd5kEGHyhhf6TlFxA

It's very thematic if you want to roleplay as a wicked witch. My trick was politics with stuff like tenuous truce and loran, then having to play tower defense once I played exquisite blood and the table brought out the torches and pitchforks to come burn down my castle. You won't get consistent wins and you're totally hosed against very aggressive decks or when aura shards comes out. But it's a fun, janky midrange deck where you get to play the saturday morning cartoon villain.

disaster pastor posted:Note also that it's not "each creature shares a type," it's "each nonland card shares a type." So it literally has to be all lands and creatures. If you have any artifacts, instants or sorceries, Umori is not a legal companion. To satisfy Umori's companion requirement, there must be one card type that each nonland card in your starting deck has. For example, if every nonland card is an artifact creature, enchantment creature, or creature, it is satisfied; but if you have an artifact creature, an artifact, and a creature, it is not satisfied.
