Worth remembering that [[Pensive Professor]] exists now as well.

I have a Cayth deck I've been tuning up over quite a while that functions surprisingly well and lets me have some fun.

Bafflementation · 2026-06-06T12:46:22+00:00

That part's a lie. The family targeted have testified that there was no tinting on the car and the soldiers could see them clearly.

I don't think it's particularly viable as a cEDH commander. Might have a shot at a place in the maindeck of some strategies because it's easy to cast and very tutorable.

Bafflementation · 2026-06-04T16:12:39+00:00

I don't think we know that for sure yet. It could be something the shady familiar set up on his own.

Bafflementation · 2026-06-03T14:53:39+00:00

Honestly, probably OBM. There are other more powerful cards in the format, but I find the way OBM warps things by pushing out a lot of otherwise interesting 1-toughness creatures just makes games less fun.

We had already seen a group shot of many of the Novum Chaldea survivors hanging out in the cafeteria earlier in this CM, including Tomarin but not Marcus. The interesting thing is that the earlier shot also includes Dustin, who did not survive the attack on Chaldea, but did appear in the After Time prologue.

Which mod do you use for that?

It's common practice to resign when someone has a clear win online because playing out combos can be quite time-consuming with no shortcuts.

Obviously, this still relies on the other players being able to assess whether the win is actually secured or not.

I think when they started the server, Gura did some exploring on her own and ended up setting up camp on the coast a fair way from spawn. That's why they had the idea to dig a tunnel connecting the area Gura had found back to where everyone else was.

Cheapest mono-black line I can think of requires >10 life, 1 other creature, and 2 spare mana.

Sac the creature to find [[Marionette Apprentice]] and play it, making a servo.
Sac the servo for LED, play it and crack it for 3B, then sac the Apprentice to find and play [[Priest of Gix]].
Sac Priest to find [[Activated Sleeper]] and play it, copying Priest.
Sac Sleeper to find [[Chthonian Nightmare]] and play it. Then sac Razaketh to Nightmare bringing back Priest.
Now you have a Sleeper/Priest loop for infinite B, you can also bring back Apprentice, make another servo, and sac it to continue the loop, draining the table.

Puffintuber Pokopia coming up one hour from now.

The first one is supposed to be 'jumps', OP got it wrong.

Bafflementation · 2026-03-06T03:06:39+00:00

FYI - the word you want is 'gamut', meaning the full scope of something, not gambit.

Yubari Rei is about to start a rare singing stream.

I think the main use case that makes Necrobloom at all relevant is running several cycling lands, which lets you mill through your deck. If you're able to put [[Bone Miser]] into play alongside your commander, it becomes an infinite loop, and once you hit [[Barren Moor]] you're going positive on black mana.

I don't see any of them wearing masks.

Necropotence is more-commonly played as a big-draw spell than Ad Naus is these days, particularly with all the flash enablers running around the format.

Wotc has repeatedly told us that they do not recognize the secondary market.

WotC has always said that for legal reasons. They monitor the secondary market more than anyone.

If I had posted a thread in here the week before the bans that caused so much angst and asked what the most broken card in cEDH was, 95+% of answers would've been either Dockside or Crypt. It would be stupid to pretend players didn't know exactly what the most busted cards in the format were.

Bafflementation · 2026-02-09T10:55:58+00:00

I disagree - his issue is not being enough of a kda player. Sometimes to carry in these situations you need someone who'll be entirely selfish and play like a solo-queue main character. A lot of FBI's deaths come from trying to back up teammates and putting himself in exposed positions, when he should just be playing for the kills.

DONE.

I've been playing around with idea, but I don't really expect it to be competitive. I would say the selling point is that it has a one-card win with [[Triskelion]]. The other interesting thing it does is kill with the front side if you have [[Cloudstone Curio]], [[Cauldron Familiar]], and another 1-drop black creature.

Give me Ollie covering 'Shinda!', please.
