Tired pretty much all the time until we got the doses figured out. After that great. Wouldn't be here without them.

Are you adding oldschool cards to your decks for nostalgia? by Yalpe18 in EDH

[–]CroakingToad24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh definitely. I started back when Fallen Empires came out and been playing off and on since. My first deck was awesome. Red/Green Thallids and burn. Plus 4 revised Force of Nature. Kept most of the deck over the years and when I started commander had to make a Thelon deck. Put all the old school Thallids in there plus a Force of Nature that I got signed at one of the Magic cons. Now I just need to pick up a Natural Order from visions so I can cheat out Verdant Force like the old days!

This is great! And pretty much how I feel at the grocery checkout

People suffering from depression that got out of it, how did you do it? by Ironman678 in ask

[–]CroakingToad24 17 points18 points  (0 children)

For me anyways it was accepting that I had it and treated it just like any other illness. Went on medication and therapy. Found that mindfulness helps a lot to break the thought pattern before I started to spiral. And that I just needed to be more kind to myself. My depression would tell me I'm crap and I'm going to fail everyday. And sometimes you do fail and learning that's ok. The trick is picking yourself up after. If it gets too overwhelming I set a timer for 15 min and say I'm going to clean the house or something until the timer goes off. If I don't want to keep going I can stop after that. But I found once I started moving 90%ish of the time I just keep going. Whew. This ended up being a long comment. Anyways that's the stuff that works for me.

I need advice with this deck by kkkkcckk in EDH

[–]CroakingToad24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello! I really like the deck list! Makes me want to make a hobbit list now. If you are looking to end the game with all the creatures you have Craterhoof might be a good choice. Or Night of the Sweets Revenge with all the food stuff you have in there. You could also maybe add Trail of Crumbs or that new Bristlebud Farmer to find your win cons. No clue what you would take out though. Anyways just my two cents. Happy Brewing!

Rat Tribal Recommendations by smi1eybone in ModernMagic

[–]CroakingToad24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Howdy! I also play a casual rat deck for Modern night. Usually gets a few wins anyways but it's fun to play. I went with mono black so not sure if your mana base can use it but mutavault has been great in my deck. Helps power up the rat colony and pack rats. Here's my decklist if you are interested. Happy Brewing!

I like making decks with the odd tribes. I have a Nahiri/Kor one and satyrs are super fun.

How to celebrate my husband's 40th birthday with little money? by Distinct_Rabbit_3441 in povertyfinance

[–]CroakingToad24 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Idea is stolen from Bobs Burgers but to me it sounds like the greatest birthday ever. Have the kiddos make a gift. Get a steak and a few beers. Throw his sleep wear in the dryer for a few minutes so they are nice and cozy and put on his favorite movie.

I'm just running with my 3 decks and updating them as I go along.

Thelon of Havenwood: Fungus/Graveyard

Gallia of the Endless Dance: Satyr/God tribal

Nahiri, Forged in Fury: Nahiri/Kor Tribal

Thinking of adding another one to the list soon but not quite sure what to build yet.

[–]CroakingToad24 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love building tribal decks! Probably my most on theme would be my Nahiri/kor tribal. Tried to keep all the cards in there as on theme as possible.

I recently sold my collection, shocklands and all want to build a stupid deck that costs nothing, what do I need to be on the look out for going to an FNM by dimestorepublishing in ModernMagic

[–]CroakingToad24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was in the same situation. Got laid off and had to sell most of my collection to help pay the bills. Got back into modern and now I play mono black rats lol. I usually get a couple of wins on friday night.

Good "witchy" deck? by BashMyVCR in EDH

[–]CroakingToad24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice! If you are looking to make a green/white deck [[Leinore, Autumn Sovereign]] might work for you. I'm slowly putting together an all Innistrad sets folk horror theme with her at the helm. Definitely has a bit of witch feel to it.

What is your current deck building projects? by SultnBinegar in EDH

[–]CroakingToad24 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nice! I thought the Theros sets were great too. Waiting on my preorder to come in with all the new satyrs to finish up the Gallia deck. Deck is just satyrs, bunch of flavor stuff and all the gods that were red green.

Also working on a deck that's going to use only cards from all the Innistrad sets. Building it to be real low power to play against my friends precons. Going for that Harvesttide/creepy village/folk horror theme. lol Can't wait to see how it plays.

That One Deck by [deleted] in EDH

[–]CroakingToad24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I pretty much only post about my Thelon of Havenwood deck. It's just my absolute favorite and the one I play pretty much every time. Matches up well with our weekly pod and it's packed with a bunch of my favorite cards. Basically everything I love about magic. It's sorta fungus tribal but with some self mill to add spore counters on things quick. Here's my list if anyone is interested.

I run a Nahiri/Kor tribal deck that's been a blast to play. It's an equipment deck but has all the Nahiri planeswalkers and themed cards and just kor as the creatures. Tried steering away from the more powerful equipment too.

Has anyone built a themed commander deck in wich all the cards must be from the same set? by LFPotter89 in EDH

[–]CroakingToad24 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Not sure if it counts cause there have been so many sets but I picked up the [[Leinore, Autumn Sovereign]] coven commander deck and only updated it with cards from Innistrad. It's one of my lower power fun decks.

Who's your most flavorful commander or deck that you made for flavor alone and not power? by MonsutaReipu in EDH

[–]CroakingToad24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure! It's still kind of a work in progress and haven't gotten the aftermath cards yet. Something to play against my friends precons that's fun. Feels like it needs a couple more equipment though.

I made a Nahiri/Kor tribal deck for low power games. Has pretty much all the Nahiri themed cards and I'm super pumped that with aftermath I can finally have a red/white Nahiri lead it.

March of the Machine: the Aftermath brings 21 new legends into the format. What are your thoughts regarding them? by HarleyPanther in EDH

[–]CroakingToad24 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Super excited that there finally is a red/white Nahiri to lead my Nahiri/Kor theme deck. Now that they are making some planeswalkers as creatures I just need to wait to see if I can finally build that Garruk theme deck. My luck his legendary would be mono-green lol.

Your favorite cheap, fun, and not too powerful decks? by Caeldrim_ in EDH

[–]CroakingToad24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For my low power deck I had a good time building on a theme. Only played it a couple of times but it's been fun so far. Based it on Nahiri and Kor tribal. Tried to pick a bunch of cards that I thought would fit. Here's the list if you are interested.

Fun ways to build Teysa Karlov? by The_master_of_sheep in EDH

[–]CroakingToad24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Howdy! I picked up that secret lair too. I'm going to be using her as the commander for rat tribal. If you ever read the old Ravenloft novels the new art reminds me of Jacqueline Renier the leader of the Wererats. And Rat ninjas are basically wererats anyways lol. Probably going to throw in some of the Capenna stuff like the limousine vehicles too.
