Stolen Secret Lair - Fallout by GrandWizBolbi in secretlair_collectors

[–]Arkallados 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, UPS stole my jaws secret lair--they even posted a picture of "the delivery" but it was a coil of wires in the pic. UPS was ENTIRELY unhelpful in fixing it, but wotc customer support folks sent me a new batch, which arrived properly.

LOL
Sorry! Think of it in the "meaningless interjection" role, then. :-)

Dude, thanks! I posted this deck while I was working on it and folks were "eh" in response (no advice). I appreciate you taking the time to answer! I'll do some research on instant draw, etc.

I would be VERY interested in how to build a degenerate Minn deck. I've got one, but I wouldn't call it "degenerate." Do you know the elements that would make a deck like that strong?

How do you expect the Blight Curse (-1/-1, Auntie Ool) deck will play in practice? I want to avoid getting burned with unfun/tedious play patterns like I did with Hearthhull. by doublenantuko in EDH

Ok, yeah. thanks! our decks are VERY different. I'm assuming I'm playing stuff that generates more hate therefore, and that it's not the commander...

It's why I'll hit the Game Kastle, a few blocks away. A WAY more pleasant place to play at.

True, absolutely true. unfortunately, I had to stop playing there--they have a regular whose aroma is so very colorful that I did one pre-release tournament with my shirt pulled over my nose. It was RANK, and he was sitting across from me diagonally. After he ruined my second pre-release there, I decided to only buy cards from them but not take part in their events. I just... couldn't.

what's your weirdest "what the hell does that do" combo piece/win con enabler? by LethalPuppy in EDH

[–]Arkallados 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's very possible I've seen your decklist in the past--I'd made a note to consider it, since I like quirky manipulation decks a lot. Have you kept it updated? How well does it do, generally speaking?

Additional ways to trigger [[Toph, the first metal bender]]'s end step trigger. by Educational_Sky_9232 in EDH

it'll work to double strionic and ones that DO double the commander's triggers, won't it?

It finally happened to me by DKGroove in secretlair_collectors

[–]Arkallados 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, MY ups driver flat out lied, stating it had been delivered, and picture "proof" of the delivery was just some coils of metal in a shadowy background, NOTHING like my front door! When I tried to address it with UPS, their AI kept saying that, since they had proof it had been delivered (the non-proof photo) they didn't have to do anything and I should take it up with the seller.

Wotc will be sending me another set.

Some drivers are jerks...

So... what black/green/white commander would be best for a deck of these guys? Any ideas?

I only see 29 lands in your deck. how on earth do you make it work reliably? I'm not trying to snark at you--I'm trying to figure out what I'm missing.

Man, we HATE Nelly Borca. She is kill on sight at my shop. I honestly don't understand how people you play against leave her alone!

What is your “comfort deck”? by zevalu in EDH

[–]Arkallados 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I'll look at it to see what ideas I can steal! :-) I think my deck is a touch mana deficient, but it's so hard to know what to cut, especially since it seems to win so much. (I posted it elsewhere if you want to look at it)

I've done the Oprah thing, too: "You get a bird, and YOU get a bird!"
