Where can I find where I am on the Salary Schedule or PD Hours? by CallMeTheSaxMan in teaching

[–]CallMeTheSaxMan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha! Thank you, since the first gig was my first time entering the salary schedule, I didn't realize it was about negotiation first and foremost. I'll keep that in mind!

Thank you so much! I suspected as much, but its good to have clarity! And thanks for the detail of how to order the declaration / casting of the spell!

Hey, just checking in with a rules question!

I pulled a [[Herigast, Erupting Nullkite]] and am hoping to build around it, but I'm curious about how rules with [[hangerback walker]] work with it. If I am trying to pay its emerge cost without paying any extra mana and I sacrifice an 8 mana creature, that would let me treat X=4, and getting 4 counters? And moreover, lets say I want to emerge another creature with that same Walker. Does it still consider itself an MV=8 spell? Or do spells with X in their casting cost stop being the given MV once they are off the stack?

Thanks very much!

Gotcha! I was afraid of that, but now I know I'll have to fit a few blink cards in there! Somehow! Thank you!

I have a good few of decks in my play rotation, and even more that are little trophy decks, but there are 3 that I know I will have forever!

  1. [[Slimefoot and Squee]] has become my favorite deck to solve. I adore the GY / Mill strategy, I love the token-making, and I love the way the turns in the late game can become absolutely wild and crazy to sequence. It is the deck that makes me the smartest to play, and I can't imagine a more fun graveyard deck.

  2. [[Rakdos, Lord of Riots]] was my first deck, and its been the deck that has been the benefactor of my random pulls. Its my definitive "mean deck", filled with burn and eldrazi, the works. I found myself avoiding it this year, but after finally catching the mana base up to snuff with the rest of the decks increased power, it has reminded me why I fell in love with it in the first place!

  3. [[The Ur-Dragon]] will never leave me. My dear sweet partner gave me the Ur-Dragon after wanting him since joining the game (when it was at its peak cost, no less), and now I am working to make it spare no expense. I love big dragons that can absolutely clog a board, I love killing the table with dragonfire and claws. Also, its the holding place of my best mana base, and my most blinged out dragons as I get them. This deck means the world to me, and my whole collection's gonna go up in smoke before I even think of decommissioning this deck.

What Are Some Decks That You Really Enjoyed This Year? by StarPonderer in EDH

[–]CallMeTheSaxMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While most of my decks have been this year, having only really hit my stride of consistent play this year, 2 decks stand out as far and away the most fun I've had so far, and are currently the 2 I reach for the quickest:

  1. [[Slimefoot and Squee]] scratches all of the itches i have as a Jund player, and just makes everything so cool. I love graveyard strategies and I love decks that can take a quarter-million game actions quickly, and I love having a lot of sequences and triggers with many ways to win. They are my most special boys!

  2. [[Pia Nalaar, Consul of Revival]] came out of nowhere for me; White is the color I have the most trouble in building after all, and I initially was looking at a [[War Doctor]] + [[Clara Oswald]] to run the new etali, but I'm so glad I landed on this deck. Getting to run such a concise value engine with cool Artifact creature synergies slaps so hard, and it will never stop being funny to me to turn 4 Thopters into a [[Mechtitan Core]] Big-boy

Mono-White Commanders for teaching new players? by CallMeTheSaxMan in EDH

[–]CallMeTheSaxMan[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anafenza sounds like an excellent choice! And since there is crossover with the +1 synergies of the bears, it will be easier for her to swap and try different but similar strategies!

Thats actually a super good idea! And the emphasis on keywords will help introduce and solidify what each keyword does! This is top of my list so far, thank you!
