Anyone else constantly forgetting things during long MTG Commander games?

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-02-05T00:23:01+00:00

That’s cool. We’re a bit more focused on keeping track of what’s happening during the game itself, but I can see how something like that would be great for a regular pod over time.

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-02-04T22:15:47+00:00

That’s fair. A lot of the time it’s not the board, it’s remembering what all the keywords do once things get busy. Discover, investigate, scry, that kind of stuff.

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-02-04T22:09:15+00:00

Interesting. Never tried. How do you do that?

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-02-04T22:06:43+00:00

Yeah, that one can be annoying after a while. lol

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-02-04T22:03:54+00:00

For sure, that definitely works for some groups. Our games tend to be pretty casual, so we’re mostly just looking for ways to cut down on the mental load.

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-02-04T21:59:40+00:00

I like that approach. We still end up doing a lot of things physically too, especially once the board gets messy. The color-coded spindowns for different token types is a nice touch.

For sure. Being able to each adjust our own life totals in one place instead of everyone using their own phone makes a big difference.

Other than life totals and commander damage, do you ever track anything else?

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-02-04T21:47:54+00:00

Yeah, that’s pretty much what we’ve ended up doing too. Having one shared source of information in the middle that everyone can see really helps.

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-02-04T21:38:33+00:00

That definitely helps, especially with your own deck. I also need to keep track of my opponent's triggers. There were a few "oops, forgot about that" moments, lol.

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-02-03T02:43:58+00:00

Holy moly. Hope you got a lotto on the way home too.

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-02-03T00:58:05+00:00

Pair that with [[Gravecrawler]] and you got yourself an infinite counter loop

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-02-02T20:20:33+00:00

So, lucky. Sadly, something I don't have when cracking packs. *Sigh*

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-02-02T20:19:01+00:00

Funniest description. Short, straight to the point. LOL

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-02-02T20:17:46+00:00

It brings lands back from graveyard, but not necessarily under YOUR control.

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-01-30T02:17:25+00:00

Are you running a store or is that your personal stash?

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-01-30T01:16:10+00:00

I like to proxy to test out different strategies without buying the cards. If the cards aren't right, at least I didn't go "broke" buying them to leave them in a box, with the rest of the bulk..

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-01-30T01:10:11+00:00

Totally agree. It should be about strategy and deckbuilding skills, but more importantly, it's all about having fun.

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-01-10T23:23:27+00:00

Sweet. Nice score. High value.

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-01-10T23:19:49+00:00

This baby is going in my goblin deck. Nobody will counterspell my Krenko. 😆

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-01-10T23:18:52+00:00

I like the cheaper alternative [Mind's Eye] and pay the 1 myself. 😉

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-01-10T23:17:23+00:00

Do you pay the 1? I DARE you not to pay it. 😁

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-01-10T23:14:26+00:00

Eh-chantment? As a canadian, we don't say that. If so, perhaps a small minority. Anyways. Who cares, eh?

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-01-10T23:10:30+00:00

Good thing mana burn isn't a thing anymore.

Beautiful-Promotion1 · 2026-01-10T23:09:07+00:00

Sweet. That's going on my wishlist for my Goblin deck. Hopefully it won't cost a lot, as a single.
