starting with cards that say “instants and sorceries cost less…”

bought this game yesterday, planning for a nice Halloween with her ⚔️

But 200 bucks for this? 😳

PART 3

Imp's mischief is MonoB or Golgari's Deflecting Swat
Sudden Spoiling is a one-sided boardwipe and player removal card
Thieving Skydiver is actually Sol Ring's thief
Fear of Impostors is the best of its cycle. Awesome in enchantress, but also disgusting in blink / displacing kitten

🧵

focusing on specific strategies makes them "unique" and they wouldn't overlap with other decks. Meaning I wouldn't have to keep sharing too many (if any) cards and they're also easier to update if I feel the need.

My number one motivation to build a new commander deck without necessarily getting rid of others is if I want to focus/try a new strategy. for example, I do have an enchantress deck, but not one focused on auras, so this would be enough for me to start a new build.

PART 2

modal spells are always a good rate of 2-3:1 - like all charms are. UM is a budget deflecting swat / YLUTT is a one sided boardwipe (if the creature you choose has deathtouch 😈)

Scapegoat is great for blink/ETB strategies and Reap is a niche awesome recursion tool 🧵

Is this an eldrazi or reanimator deck?

I'm really really keen to see another bracket introduced. B3/Upgrade - feel like an actual precon upgrade w/ 1-2 GCs.
B4/Optimized - a bit more edgy, for more powerful lines of play 3-4 GCs, fetchlands etc
B5/Fringe cEDH - what current B4 is - and define it for what it is: fringe cEDH.

saying "my deck is a 3" lost the meaning a while ago. B4 decks are horrible to play against. I think well defined "rules" are actually better tools for pre-game chats, and easier to call out bad actors.

also - voicing what others are saying: discuss the precon powercreep and accessibility.

right! me too!!

I put a deck together and I'm excited to playtest it in person in the coming weeks. Think this is a good one!

tell me about it!
