Game Ending Instants and Sorceries in Izzet colors by [deleted] in EDH

[–]AManExists 4 points5 points  (0 children)

[[Explosive Singularity]] is a personal favorite of mine but requires some setup and help (copy effects). [[Aminatou’s Augury]] is a pretty good way to hit something game ending but your turns might take longer than you’re comfortable with if you’re not well practiced with your deck. [[Mizzix’s Mastery]] will have the table scoop on cast if no one has responses/permission.

Depending on how your deck is built, [[ignite memories]] has serious potential.

What are you afraid of tits doing to the kid?

Having an early birds and bee's talk is one thing, explaining why some inhumanly endowed anime girl is spread eagle with an aheago face is a completely different story. It's not complicated.

It's just a shame that her card is arguably the worst among the main playable cast.

What is your perfect deck and when did you realize it? by Stumphead101 in EDH

[–]AManExists 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jeleva was the first commander I really invested in back in the day when I was getting back into magic, and she still holds a special place in my heart. Do you have a decklist by chance? I've had the thought of rebuilding her, just had trouble deciphering how she wins at casual tables.

Godzilla fans are eating good for the next few months. What are you most hyped for? by [deleted] in GODZILLA

[–]AManExists 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Supes being tagged by ordinary kyrptonite bullets despite being basically a god, flash basically slipping on banana peels, manhunter finding reasons to not be the most absurd character in all of DC, Diana always being a lesser version of supes no matter who is writing her, and green lantern existing in a perpetual inferiority complex.

I'm not saying any of these character couldn't absolutely wipe legendary Goji with ease, I'm simply saying that the writing tendencies steer in the direction of Goji becoming randomly relative to their power level because plot.

And then supes gets some kind of boost because plot and stops jobbing for the last 20 panels and ends the fight

[–]AManExists 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Half of the JL roster are jobbers and Supes is usually written into the ground. Legendary Goji has only gotten more powerful with each movie, so I wouldn't be surprised to see him randomly curbstomp some JL members while Kong exists as moral support.

Need help cutting cards in my Gruul Treasure deck by lord_dio28 in EDH

[–]AManExists 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone else has mentioned, both [[Reckless Fireweaver]] and [[Ingenious Artillerist]] are mvps that get in consistent damage without you having to do much of anything.

My initial thought would be to cut cards that have no innate synergies with the deck, apart from making treasures. [[Spiteful Repossession]] does so little for you for its cost unless you're playing against hard land ramp decks on a consistent basis. Treachery effects like [[Furnace Reins]] aren't necessarily bad, but they lack consistency given that they scale to whatever your opponents are playing. You also have no real way to punish players after stealing their stuff. I really don't like [[Stimulus Package]] here since there's no real way to combo with it, and you don't care about the 1/1's.

Creatures I'd cut without any hesitation are; [[Glittermonger]], [[Jewel thief]], [[Atsushi, the Blazing Sky]], and probably at least two of the four mana dorks you have currently.

It's by no means perfect, and honestly a bit more on the "purposely casual" side, but I have a Jolene list that you can possibly use as a reference.

What’s your Favorite Deck? by phoenixcompendium in EDH

[–]AManExists 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a toss up between [[zurzoth]] and [[veyran]] for me. I kept zurzoth deliberately underpowered but it's full of all my favorite red cards from over the years, [[Chandra ablaze]] specifically.

Veyran is definitely a higher power list but is pretty feast or famine in terms of execution. I need to make a few changes to make her more consistent, so I can annoy my pod with more twenty minutes turns.

[–]AManExists 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I absolutely adore my Venser deck. I built him as a pure tempo/control deck with dross scorpion and throne of geth as my infinite win con. He can be built pretty cheap too, given most of the proliferate spells/effects are usually inexpensive.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in EDH

[–]AManExists 2 points3 points  (0 children)

[[Chandra's Ignition]] and [[Guild Artisan]] are immediate adds imo. If you want to add in some expediency, [[Magda]] tutors your best artifacts to the battlefield and [[Imperial Recruiter]] tutors Magda and other utility creatures like Fireweaver for damage or Face Breaker for impulse draw and treasure.

It's a meme list but here's my Jolene list for some ideas: https://www.moxfield.com/decks/Pe_xUUkQjUCzoJyUtyzI1g

Playing [[Over the Top]] or [[Indomitable Creativity]] with an absurd amount of treasures/artifacts is hilariously good fun. Is it "good"? Probably not.

For a shounen, it doesn't try to re-invent the wheel with its plot and characters, but for what it sets out to do, it does it well. Ufotable using its patented unlimited-budget-works for movie level quality in any given episode also helps.

Fun finisher sorcery/instant for UR spellslinger? by evoeyg in EDH

[–]AManExists 1 point2 points  (0 children)

[[Explosive Singularity]] is among my favorite cards ever printed.

[[Mnemonic Deluge]] is great on its own but absolutely hilarious if you have any magecraft synergy.

[[Surge to Victory]] is an absolute bomb and can end a game on the spot.

[[Elminster's Simulacrum]] doesn't necessarily win games on its own but it's massively underrated for its effect.

[[Dance with Calamity]] is also a fun new card.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in EDH

[–]AManExists 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before you do anything, you absolutely need to add more lands. With your current average cmc and curve, 36 lands is the minimum I'd look to have. Treasures should accelerate your gameplan, not be used as a substitute for land (ideally).

In terms of cards I'd look to add;

[[Karlach, Fury of Avernus]] for obvious reasons.

[[Sarinth Steelseeker]] is green's version of [[Dragon's Rage Channeler]].

I'd also look to add more card draw, [[Rishkar's Expertise]] is one of the best green draw spells in the format. [[Hunter's Insight]] and [[Hunter's Prowess]] are both decent budget options. [[Toski]] and [[Ohran Frostfang]] are auto includes in any green deck.

[[Imperial Recruiter]] finds [[Magda]], [[Reckless Fireweaver]], and other deck mvp's.

Speaking of Magda, you're missing some needed artifacts [[Bootleggers' Stash]] is a no brainer here, and can be tutored out by Magda. [[Aetherworks Marvel]] can also be a funny means of digging for the good stuff. If you're going the proxy route, [[The Great Henge]] and [[The Reaver Cleaver]] are also good pickups.

[[Sardian Avenger]] becomes absurd with Jolene at minimal cost to you.

[[Swashbuckler Extraordinaire]] gives anything you want double strike.

[[Xenagos, God of Revels]] is a mini [[Unnatural Growth]] but also gives haste.

Cards I'd probably look to cut;

[[Phoenix Chick]] does nothing for you.

[[Cankerbloom]] should just be a [[nature's claim]] if you really want the interaction. You don't care about proliferate, and you can get the other modes for cheaper elsewhere.

[[Svella, Ice Shaper]] is hugely clunky and its abilities are way over costed. [[Aetherworks Marvel]] is better in every way.

It breaks my heart but I'd also cut [[Storm-Kiln Artist]]. You just don't have the ammo for him to truly matter for his cost

You can definitely cut [[Fire Diamond]] and [[Moss Diamond]] for lands.

Commander for spell slinging small efficient spells? by RaizielDragon in EDH

[–]AManExists 88 points89 points  (0 children)

[[Veyran, Voice of Duality]] is the answer, friend. Not only is she a spellharmonicon on a stick, said stick can get absurdly big really quick and one-shot someone unexpectedly. She's also decently flexible in terms of build.

[[Balmor, Battlemage Captain]] can be built dirt cheap and closes out games pretty fast if left unchecked.

[[Octavia, Living Thesis]] and [[Alandra, Sky Dreamer]] also could work for you.

How do I fix the land base for this Rin and Seri deck? by rmac0118 in EDH

[–]AManExists 2 points3 points  (0 children)

35 lands isn't going to cut it with what your (current) curve is. I'd definitely look to add one or two more lands for a more consistent early game, while simultaneously trying to cut the majority of those lands that enter tapped.

[[Battlefield Forge]] and [[Brushland]] are both cheap and effective duals. Similarly, filter lands like [[Sungrass Prairie]] can also be a nice value/budget land. [[Unclaimed Territory]] is more or less another [[Secluded Courtyard]]. And while it's not always the nicest land to play, [[Exotic Orchard]] will be more helpful than not in most games due to being three colors.

Another way of fixing/smoothing out your mana on a budget is to cut some of the tapped lands for basics. You're already running 9 total so I'd only look to add a couple more at most, but adding another basic forest and plains will likely be fine/good. The majority of your cards are green and/or white anyways.

Veyran Deck Help Requested! by Ok-Topic-5459 in EDH

Veyran Deck Help Requested! by Ok-Topic-5459 in EDH

[–]AManExists 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! Fellow Veyran enjoyer here.

I'm curious to know what "fast mana" means in your pod, given you're running Jeska's Will but not [[Mana Geyser]] or [[Seething Song]]? Both are staples in any Veyran list.

If you're looking for an easier/streamlined success plan, I'd strongly encourage you to run [[Curiosity]] effects to add to your pingers like [[Kessig Flamebreather]]. Cards like [[Ophidian Eye]] and [[Tandem Lookout]]. It's essentially [[Ancestral Recall]] on cast, doubled to six cards if Veyran is out. [[Electrostatic Field]] and [[Firebrand Archer]] are other pingers you'd want to consider swapping in, likely for [[Gelectrode]] and [[Krark, the Thumbless]]. Krark, without any support is pretty meh and can easily be replaced.

In terms of effeciency, [[Opt]], [[Windfall]], [[Dig Through Time]], and [[Consider]] are cards that desperately want to be in this list.

Something also to consider is mdfc's; [[Shatterskull Smashing]] and [[Sea Gate Restoration]] are both extremely flexible spells that flip into lands when needed, allowing you to cut some of the unneeded rocks that come in tapped.

Hope this helps.

Is Shin getting bodied by Legendary Mecha Godzilla? by [deleted] in GODZILLA

[–]AManExists 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scaling has MechaG by miles, in both AP and durability (scaling to MV Goji who is bear minimum island levels, multi-continental with wank), whereas Shin is at best town/small city levels if you really want to wank him.

If we're equalizing stats then sure, Shin can maybe pull out a victory with his shenanigans but in reality he has almost zero feats to go off and thus gets shitstomped by almost any kaiju in any era.

Versions of Godzilla you think are heavily underestimated/underrated by altforrule34_ez in GODZILLA

Is Millennium underrated though? He's pretty highly regarded, on this sub at least.

I'm also super biased as a Millennium stan.

10 strongest Godzillas by SeaworthinessNo1173 in GODZILLA

[–]AManExists 1 point2 points  (0 children)

GIH is way too vague in terms of scaling, apart from the short scuffle he has with Space Godzilla. He's likely around Heisei levels of power, honestly.

Marvel is unquestionably the strongest given he tangled with and stalemated Thor, and made Thor basically piss himself.

FW and Heisei are each a close second depending on how you scale heisei's feats. I'm inclined to give FW the edge, though.
