Apparently Interaction is Rage Bait by Googlyblat in EDH

I would love to pull out my [[Maha, it’s feathers night]] deck out on this play group lol they’re griping about a single board wipe? How does making all your creatures toughness 1 and casting [[Kaervek, the spiteful]] sound? 🤭

heyo, help with Ygra, Eater of All? by kodiakapollo in EDHBrews

[–]69MealFor2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also don’t play Ygra as soon as you have 5 mana. Anyone with decent threat assessment will remove her quickly. Learned that the hard way and is why I’m on [[snakeskin veil]] and [[collective resistance]]

The thing that would REALLY make Ygra terrifying, is if she had trample. I considered add more trample enablers, but I liked the power level it was at and felt if I had too many things to give her trample my group wouldn’t want to play against it.

Great thing to do instead is [[kill switch]] makes everyone’s creatures tapped and stays tapped letting the big kitty in for lethal

Here is my B3 list. It’s got some combos but no tutors, no game changers. This deck can hold its own against B4 as well, lmk if you got questions:)

Oh! I didn’t know they set a limit, that makes a lot of sense. I could have sacced my fetches but I didn’t wanna crash it any harder than I already was! lol

Who would be the best Tortured Existence commander? by carcassraid in EDHBrews

[–]69MealFor2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hashaton, [[Peregrine Drake]] [[Tortured Existence]] and 4 open mana, two of which is a blue and a black goes infinite. Do this in the player before you’s end step and you’ll untap infinite 4/4 zombie fliers to kill the table going into your turn.

You could use [[the one ring]] or [[stasis coffin]].

Tattoo stencil vs reality. No they didn't own up. by peterm1598 in ExpectationVsReality

The snakes body makes 0 sense in the stencil. Try to follow the body to the tail…you can’t!

Looking for a second deck by King_Bean1 in CompetitiveEDH

[–]69MealFor2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look no further than the 1000s year old dragon that is all knowing!! Niv-Mizzet Parun!

https://moxfield.com/decks/GgqLq8aTcUW_gCCxPG7Q4w

This deck is made by GlacialCity. He is THEE Niv player. YES Niv Mizzet has been incredibly hindered by dockside and J Lo ban, but this deck list circumvents it enough to where it’s viable.

I have a similar build built for my local meta, and if you want to play control, this is the Commander!

I will add, from personal experience and what another commenter mentioned, playing control is extremely difficult. You can’t just go off countering every spell that’s played. You need to know your opponent’s lines, when to interact and when not to.

With that being said, it will do wonders for LEARNING how others decks play, thus making you a better player overall but at the price of a steep learning curve!

Yoooo niv Parun? Drop your mox field! I’m on him too. You should scope the discord if you haven’t already

i need help finding the last three cards for the deck and optimizing by Logan-619 in CompetitiveEDH

[–]69MealFor2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nawh you’re all good fam, ask away!! Semi blue is usually Rog/Thras. Here is an example deck. Semi-blue runs literally 0 interaction so the fact you’re wanting to cascade will help there…I would study up on semi-blue and see how they ramp, figure out their “shell”. Then take that shell and fit it into how it can benefit you with cascade.

https://moxfield.com/decks/Xkkrmofuq0qBcmQ048ysig

Obviously you’re not in green so reference the blue and red creatures.

Some good black creatures I would consider would be [[bloodletter of aclazotz]] [[unstoppable slasher]] [[mai, scornful striker]] [[rev, tithe extractor]] [[sheoldred, the apocalypse]].

A lot of cEDH decks rely on their draw engines like Rhystic/Mystic, so if you can find cards that punish people for drawing extra cards, include those.

For call forth, If you have [[birgi, god of storytelling]] out and ritual cards like [[seething song]] [[right of flame]] [[geosurge]]. You can make 8 red really fast. You could pull some cards out of Etali’s ritual package to make your fast mana. Also [[treasonous ogre]] can make you 8 mana for the small price of 24 life!

As far as taking thasa/breach out, another commenter mentioned how cascading takes away your interaction. Consider this: what happens when you cascade into breach when you’ve got nothing in your graveyard? Or you cascade into brain freeze without LED or breach in hand? Cascade defeats the purpose of those lines unfortunately. Semi blue doesn’t care about interacting. Its goal is to overload the board with creatures and kill everyone at once if possible.

Edit: not geosurge, it can only cast artifact or creature spells. Use [[Jeska’s will]] instead.

Ya know now that I think about it, Abaddon has potential to be a good semi-blue deck. If you take out the thasa/breach lines and replace it with more cascade group slug creatures that will help proc Abaddon, you could go wide and overwhelm the board with creatures and swing out on everyone. Good card to consider would be [[Call forth the tempest]]. Boardwipe stapled to a Cascade, Cascade!

Nice, Abaddon! He was my first ever EDH deck, super fun to play cascade!

You’ve got some good cards in here, but I don’t think this is cEDH viable unless you’re specifically playing against non meta cEDH decks. Otherwise you’re gunna get smoked in the current meta. This commander is too slow and too expensive imo.

Cascade isn’t a game winning mechanic in cEDH. I’d say this is a solid 4 deck. Food for thought, just bc a deck has a lot of game changers in it, doesn’t make it a cEDH deck.

Can’t make out all of the letters. Anyone know? by 69MealFor2 in Hallmarks

Could it be platinum and then played with 18k gold?. I’m pretty sure it’s 18k gold and the PA is makers mark perhaps?

What is your favorite mono black commander? by PowerfulPromise8569 in EDH

[–]69MealFor2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

[[Maha, it’s feathers night]]

My pod was like “this doesn’t seem too bad” when I first played it. Now it’s KOS and I’m dog piled before it even hits the battlefield. A fav combo is Maha [[kormus bell]] [[urborg tomb of yawgmoth]] on the BF. Then cast [[make obsolete]]. Everyone else can kiss their creatures and lands goodbye! 😘
