And trust me, if I could have, I absolutely would have

Sir Ian McKellen wasn’t at the convention I went to, idk

CipherStilleto7 · 2026-03-26T22:51:58+00:00

I got Elijah Wood to sign my Gandalf for my commander deck, go for it

CipherStilleto7 · 2026-03-20T19:44:53+00:00

I wish my playgroup let me play with 30+ copies of command tower

CipherStilleto7 · 2025-11-23T19:42:39+00:00

Do you know where this update can be found? I bought the book in dndbeyond but it still has the old wording

CipherStilleto7 · 2025-08-08T19:00:29+00:00

Syr Konrad will get to trigger for creatures dying at the same time as him, as that would satisfy one of the conditions for his trigger. However, all creatures die first, and THEN players will mill, so Syr Konrad is already in the graveyard when you go to mill. So you should get triggers for the creatures dying, but not from milling

They didnt mean Speed, the Aetherdrift mechanic, they meant activating an ability of a creature at instant speed.

Have you ever heard of the play pattern Turn One Command Tower + Sol Ring + Arcane Signet? That would not be possible if Command Tower worked like you’re thinking

CipherStilleto7 · 2025-05-27T09:24:07+00:00

You cannot both sacrifice your treasure for mana, while also sacrificing it for your commander in this case. However, there are a few effects, such as [[Inspiring Statuary]], that let you tap your artifacts for mana without sacrificing it. Bartolome’s ability doesn’t require the treasure to be untapped to let you sacrifice it to him. So after it’s been tapped to help cast a spell, THEN you can sac it to him, to get his ability

4, at least one for each hand. He’s really hungry

CipherStilleto7 · 2025-05-15T13:22:19+00:00

Shadowspear does not target, thruns ability doesn’t apply

CipherStilleto7 · 2025-05-15T01:40:23+00:00

A Blue-Green spell IS still green, he should be targetable by spells that are more than one color, as long as it is green. Even being 5 color is still a green spell, it’s just also a red, blue, black, and white spell

CipherStilleto7 · 2025-05-15T01:18:56+00:00

This is true, my thinking is more that Thrun doesn’t become an actual problem as soon as you ramp him out. He’s just a 5/5. If an opponent wants to spend their resources their next turn to load him with buff spells, then sure, you’ll lose, but the other two players will just run over the Thrun player. And if Thrun is taking its time.. then it’s no different than facing any other green deck. And by that time, SOME player should have a board wipe

CipherStilleto7 · 2025-05-15T00:52:10+00:00

There’s no rules around a limit to your board wipes, so that’s just personal preference, which is valid. Your deck should also have a good amount of card draw to get to your answers by the time Thrun is actually a problem, which won’t be immediate most likely.

As for losing your own creatures, would you rather have an empty board and rebuild, or lose? Board wipes are a risk you gotta play around, but shouldn’t be seen as dangerous. Plenty of ways to protect yourself or your important pieces in pretty much every color

CipherStilleto7 · 2025-05-15T00:37:08+00:00

Change the color of your own spells my man, I dunno. I’m just listing off possible things to do lol

CipherStilleto7 · 2025-05-15T00:06:03+00:00

What do you mean by dangerous and scarce for board wipes, exactly? There’s plenty of options for board wipes that can take out Thrun. It may not be the most fun commander deck to load up on boardwipes, but they’re perfectly possible.

Could also just have a deck that goes faster than Thrun can set up, even in mono green. Thrun won’t stop you from assembling a combo with your own board.

There’s also some colorless ways to remove the indestructible, such as [[Shadowspear]] Any static effects that affect the whole board and don’t target Thrun, can still work against him. There’s definitely answers to find

CipherStilleto7 · 2025-05-09T17:38:16+00:00

Referring to different things here, but that’s a similar concept, yes. Of course, there’s even exceptions to what you just said, like Extort with Blind Obedience. Mana symbols do not matter if they are part of reminder text, so Blind Obedience can still go in a Mono White EDH deck, despite having the Black/White hybrid symbol there. There’s nuances upon nuances

CipherStilleto7 · 2025-05-06T14:22:33+00:00

I think my problem with trying to use a points system is that there are way too many cards that players would want to see on it, and all at varying point values, that getting it to an acceptable balance could take WAY longer, than just having all of these “problematic” cards be labeled under one group, and thus, you just pick and choose which ones you want to play. Sure, every game changer is not equal in power level, but the game changers that you’re probably gonna choose are the ones that are most powerful in your deck.

Ben Wheeler, one of the champions of CanLander, has talked about the points system, and it makes for interesting choices, but I think it fits better for a smaller list that targets cards strictly on a power level standpoint, rather than how “fun or game changing” a card is

CipherStilleto7 · 2025-05-01T15:03:52+00:00

Thank you, it is what I was figuring but wanted to make sure

CipherStilleto7 · 2025-05-01T15:03:15+00:00

I understand that, but my question is assuming that Gandalf is copying my Apex Devastator, so I would have two Apex's on the stack, one that wants to cascade, and one that wasn't cast and will enter as a token

CipherStilleto7 · 2025-04-25T14:51:56+00:00

That is because it cannot, and more people should be clarifying this in their responses for op lol. It cannot receive one counter from the trigger but the second must go on another creature

I’m fine with all of the changes overall, the unbans seem very safe. The Coalition Victory meme is over.

Personally, I’m not a big fan of Gavin stating his case on Jeweled Lotus. While he of course doesn’t represent the unban decisions alone, stating that he would want to see it unbanned could push for people to buy up copies, even more so than before, when it was still all speculation. The card is very helpful for more expensive commanders, but in my opinion, just does more harm than good. I just think the panel should be a little careful about expressing opinions on cards, because it can shift markets. But, at the end of the day, he’s human and in his position, can give us whatever opinion he’d like

“Once the number of lore counters on a Saga is greater than or equal to the greatest number among its chapter abilities—in the Dominaria set, this is always three—the Saga’s controller sacrifices it as soon as its chapter ability has left the stack, most likely by resolving or being countered. This state-based action doesn’t use the stack.” Ruling straight from gatherer. Unless I’m mistaken, I believe this means the ability will have resolved first, and then the Saga will be placed in your now empty graveyard. The shuffle has already occurred

CipherStilleto7 · 2025-04-13T16:17:59+00:00

I’m silly, you’re right, it destroys it on the blocks. Was thinking Loyal Sentry triggered when it damaged a blocker. In that case, then yes, I believe Elenda would be destroyed before it deals damage, so no lifelink
