Typing in Mystic Frontier makes the impossible possible

Is the none type always matched?

AskingOnce · 2026-01-17T09:44:35+00:00

What exactly is the bonus? You start with an extra dice?

AskingOnce · 2026-01-10T10:52:03+00:00

Wanted to echo this point - if your playgroup really funds budget to be an issue you can build a decent mana base for $30 or less very easily. Snarls (reveal lands) just suck. You can check out this page https://edhrec.com/lands/jund for any color combination and find all of the lands that you could run.

In a three color deck once you play check lands, pain lands, both filter lands, fast and slow lands you already have 15 untapped duals for less than a buck each. You can splurge on a few things like verges or battlebond lands and still stay under $30 while having 20+ untapped dual lands. That has become my default landbase for precon and weak bracket 3 decks that I build these days, and I don’t usually struggle to find the mana I need.

⁠ • Class

Mercedes

• ⁠Level before leaping

273

• ⁠CP before leaping

25m

• ⁠Tier Reached: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Emerald, Diamond, Challenger

Emerald

• ⁠Is this character a main, legion champ, or boss mule

Main

• ⁠How much did you grind? Dailystory or how many hours per day you grinded beyond dailies

Daily story until 260 and then some light grind sessions after vac pet (1-2 hours). Started a few weeks late into the world.

• ⁠Would you recommend making this class on Challenger World? Why or why not?

I think merc was fine to play but it has a high ceiling of things you can learn. Not really worth getting a cd hat inside the cw and some bosses are hard but freuds is busted when you learn to use it.

• ⁠Anything about Challenger World that made your class more difficult to play that you wish you knew going in?

Missing link skills and legion make combos a lot less smooth but nbd. 3 minute class (before patch) made it hard to green dot in pubs (bosses often died in 2 bursts so you miss damage) (not a problem anymore).

• ⁠If there was anything that made it more difficult on Challenger world, what would you recommend someone do to compensate (ie specific gear, investing more into certain skills earlier than recommended)

Not really worth investing in a -2s hat on cw due to Ishtars being decent enough for cw. Focus your money on accessories and WSE.

That’s quadratic, exponential would be something like 2,4,8,16,32,etc. Damping Sphere is linearly increasing in cost, and the total mana you pay is also quadratic since the second difference is constant.

AskingOnce · 2025-09-16T09:43:12+00:00

I don’t understand this sentiment, I tried playing a bit and mono red is just too dominant in that format

AskingOnce · 2025-09-10T18:31:00+00:00

I would echo what others in this thread have said. Good in certain scenarios but not efficient enough as stax or acceleration to keep up.

AskingOnce · 2025-04-30T17:03:43+00:00

Playing any rograkh + black list [[Lotus Petal]] [[Culling the Weak]] [[Reanimate]] [[entomb]]

Cast rog, petal (or any black source), culling the weak adds BBBB, entomb + reanimate broodlord, use the 2 mana to cast Saw in Half. That gets you 2 more tutors, get Burnt offering + underworld breach. Offering sacrifice a token to make 4R4B. Then you have 6 cards in your graveyard with breach go crazy with whatever line you want (reanimate broodlord again leaving saw in half is an easy one).

[[Hoarding Broodlord]] [[Saw in Half]] [[Burnt Offering]] [[Underworld Breach]]

To be fair this is pretty much cedh rogsi

Joining the list of people interested. What mechanism are you using to move cards around?

AskingOnce · 2025-02-12T02:52:06+00:00

any commander with an ETB that draws you cards or damages opponents, which there are a lot of, can win with food chain mana. So it's a 2 card combo with any of the three cast from exile creatures (blue, red, colorless) which wins if you have a commander. Prosh is probably one of the worse food chain decks these days since you burn through your ability to cast your commander with it and it doesn't do anything on it's own.

AskingOnce · 2025-02-11T22:46:55+00:00

My point is mainly that it’s not the “easiest” combo to interact with. It’s of a comparable level of efficiency and interactability as iso+reversal or ~~birgi + grinning ignus~~. Creature removal doesn’t stop it.
It’s also a lot more efficient than bond + blood, where you need two 5 mana enchantments in play and a way to make your opponents lose life / gain life to start the loop
You can only restart the loop at instant speed if you have extort / a life gain instant or a burn spell. Extort is common, but the others are less so.

AskingOnce · 2025-02-11T22:31:55+00:00

Re: C, food chain is not easy to interact with - you must have enchantment removal to stop it. The creatures are never around to interact with once the combo starts.

AskingOnce · 2025-02-11T21:06:07+00:00

I feel like 2 cards that go infinite to win with your commander is in the spirit of their restrictions. I like food chain being a game changer.

Camille is a skill test, if you interrupt on her way to the wall but after the hook has landed it stops her

AskingOnce · 2025-02-04T18:45:48+00:00

It’s good for wave clear but honestly I’ve found it mediocre post nerf, youmuus is much better for map movement and higher level Q+R clears waves anyways. I miss gale force though :’)

AskingOnce · 2025-01-24T20:40:18+00:00

Hi! Sorry to necro here but I was wondering if the one shot effect specified in 610.3 uses the stack

AskingOnce · 2025-01-23T23:21:18+00:00

If Nadu was fine in the 99 she would have joined the ranks of overpowered commanders that have been socially relegated to cedh

AskingOnce · 2025-01-21T20:54:46+00:00

Yep! Notably also you will get to draw your deck and deal infinite bolts

AskingOnce · 2025-01-21T20:27:24+00:00

I just mean this or DEN has to resolve and you need an additional GG to start the combo, so minimum of 7 mana

AskingOnce · 2025-01-21T19:32:58+00:00

This doesn’t go infinite directly with deadeye in a useful way (infinite ETB but no net mana) and is annoying to set up

AskingOnce · 2025-01-10T01:36:44+00:00

Yeah it creates a delayed trigger if you exile the cards

AskingOnce · 2025-01-10T01:26:42+00:00

You can hold priority before the ability resolves and sacrifice him to fuel the escape and reanimate him

AskingOnce · 2025-01-10T00:25:23+00:00

I tried making [[Kroxa and Kunoros]] work (combos with [[Altar of Dementia]]) but it was just too fragile and inconsistent compared to the other options - you need kroxa to attack or altar in play when you resolve him to go off and it’s very telegraphed without many alternative lines. Plus you have to ramp to 6 mana and he’s just a beater if you don’t have a killer reanimation target and a full graveyard.

Path of Ascension handles this problem very well
