How about instead of doing a budget thing or anything do an mvp vote after and either bar reserve list cards or don't bother.

I'm gradually getting into commander and my local "cedh" group basically bans any commander that's in the cedh deck database and allows proxies of cards that cost less than 50 bucks. I'll pay anything in the mardu colors, thinking about doing an osgir stax deck. I basically don't have a single cedh staple over 100 bucks so I'm down for suggestions for anything that could let me hang with what I guess is pseudo cedh without taking out a loan.

Bust Rodd posted:But i am assuming no one would have free countermagic because you’re all under the same budget? Nope, those are just the rules for proxy cards so folks have the actual cards. I'm just new to commander in general so it's hard to jump at the multi hundred dollar staples. I feel like that rule is to prevent homogeneity of cedh staples but not stop anyone who already bought them. Honestly I think I'll just do casual and high power commander at this store since none of those rules exist for the rest of the store and maybe just do cedh at another store that doesn't care what I do.

I used to watch IHYD but stopped because Lynch has like no idea how his cards worked and would add a half hour to the run time. I hope all the guests get together to do their own stuff because they were always great.

The trick for future campaigns is to back one of the regular tiers and then swap to the limited one. The interface for the swap lets you click confirm again once it times out so you can just spam it until it works. The regular one just times out and you have no idea if it's working. Found that out in the comments.

Also I wouldn't expect any stretch goals to add too much product or anything about that since he was very forthright about how focused he was on making a good product and avoiding the pitfalls that come with a lot of kickstarter campaigns.

Even with the amazon show coming if they did a 3 set block for lotr it would be the 3 books or one for the hobbit and split the other two.

The Hobbit could be rather good for a set of commander precons, heck could even do a variant on Archenemy with Bilbo and company being the one player side.

Bust Rodd posted:What is commander content that you’d like to see exist? Instead of deck techs for cedh you could do archetype techs. Take stax for example: you could explain it's general place in a meta and then show the pros and cons for different types of stax decks. That along with the earlier mentioned threat assessment video could be cool.

Putting the new triland in each of the precons is such a nobrainer in terms of balancing out the value they put in those decks.

Group slug commanders like Mogis are easy ways to shorten the game and you can gradually make it more and more heinous to speed things up further.

Raffine and Queza might have some play to them, Raffine a bit more. Orskar the Grouch probably has a good dimir deck going for him.

What's wrong with Jan Jansen that I'm not seeing other than he's non-blue? Nobody is talking about him at all. It's kinda like a magda shell but access to black tutors and white stax.

I made my first order last night, 3 cedh decks with a bucket of alternate cards to side in. With that handled I don't really have to think about how to make my regular decks hang in high power and can just make them weird/interesting instead for lower power games.

The one person I've watched playing Ivy has a second deck for all the copies. Honestly it's pretty cool and I'd be tempted to try it, only for the prospect of pulling a second deck out when the game starts. Just received my first MPC order and I can tell these are a little bit thinner than regular cards. Should I double sleeve them just for playability? Having 3 cedh decks for the competitive pods really takes the pressure off to optimize any other deck.

MPC update: have tried 3 different sleeve setups and have opinions for the S33. Dragon shield matte duals with dragon shield inners: thinner cards with minimal friction doesn't mix well in my opinion. Left a couple days to get the air out and was still a bit hard to manage. DSMDs single sleeved: Still floaty as heck Gamegenic matte prime single sleeved: The backs of these are far rougher than dragon shields which actually made the deck feel far more robust and easier to shuffle and maneuver Seems to me that you want something to add thickness, but you want to keep the friction up.

Batterypowered7 posted:Are your hands not sticky and disgusting, thus leaving a film on all your sleeves that prevents your cards from slipping and sliding? I was just thinking that these cards would be perfect for the original dragon shields that would get sticky the moment anybody had anything on their hands. Those were tanks.

Magnetic North posted:Did you smoosh the air out? I usually divide my games into equal stacks and them place several heavy board games on top of them overnight. That usually gets the poof out. Yea that was after a couple days with stuff on them, single or double sleeved I feel like the low friction of DS isn't a great combo with S33 cardstock.

Yeah now that I pulled the trigger on a couple of mpc decks I'm thinkin maybe I'll just have 1 legit deck and the couple precons I have. Might cash out the random singleton money cards I have that I'll probably never make a real deck with (aka green and blue cards) and pick up rakdos scam for modern. Or I could take all that stuff and shove it into Archaeon/Najeela warrior tribal warhammer cards I own. When a playable deck of anything costs as much as a precon it changes how you look at stuff.

My first commander deck was Prosper, as I've gotten to mid power with him I've found that it's really boring to win with. So now I'm going to play Tor Wauki as the commander and Prosper in the 99 so it'll be more fun but still just as dastardly. Turns the tire spinning phase of prosper into pings so folks actually care. Besides that I'm looking to build a dungeon deck but not in esper, maybe tymna jeska? I've seen some examples with isshin that might have some promise. Saw a cedh version of Jan Jansen tonight which kinda took the fire out for trying to brew with him because he's so geared towards infinites that I think he'd be as boring as prosper at mid power.

Aniodia posted:Pulled a Queen Kayla in one of the packs of BRO I got for Christmas, and I remembered that people were saying she could be an interesting stax commander, so I build a deck around her trying to play the fairest of magic. I'd already gotten the ire of one of the LGS guys because I'd played Magus of the Moon against his super greedy 5-color manabase, and he kept being a whiny pissbaby the whole rest of the game, so I think I'm at least headed in the right direction. I did notice there aren't a ton of fliers in here, nor is there really a whole lot of ways to deal with planeswalkers, but I haven't really found a solution that would work with the deck that I really like. For planeswalker help that is an artifact or creature cmc 1-3 I think you're options are individual planeswalker hate, evasion, or taxing. Couple I can think of are: sword of sinew and steel, straight up destroys planeswalkers flamescroll celebrant, pings when folks use planeswalkers and is a silence on the back sparkhunter masticore, planeswalker pinger phyrexian revoker, pithing needle, and sorcerous spyglass all turn off 1 pw anointed peacekeeper, taxes and individual planeswalker immovable rod, turns off 1 planeswalker at a time but can swap each turn besides that any equipment that gives evasion is good.

I'm messing around with a Slicer, Hired Muscle deck for when a pod needs to get goin a little faster. Most of the inclusions are obvious but I'm not sure what ratios of evasion equipment to other things I should think about, as well as being a relatively new commander player. What cards am I missing and what should I skip? Anything above 25 dollars in this list is something that I happened to already have randomly. Speed Racer
