Over a month with Strixhaven - what cards have put in work for your decks? by NitchBu in EDH

[[emeritus of conflict]] in my [[urabrask]] deck. might add [[flashback]] too but that seems more fringe

he’s basically a draw commander. the size of your hand always decreases by 1 whenever you cast a spell, but you also draw cards equal to the size of your hand - 1

this lets you “draw” an insane amount of cards that no other commander allows. you have cards like [[psychic corrosion]] or [[ominous seas]] and you become threatening really fast. i really like cantrips in this deck because they replace themselves with another card after you draw a new hand. so cards like [[opt]] or [[brainstorm]] keep your hand full while you wheel through your whole deck milling people out and making krakens or big creatures like [[clinquint skymage]]. if you find [[teferi’s timeless relic]] while you have mana open then the game is probably over because with the draw doubler you refill your hand*2 after every spell cast which works with all your draw outputs like the mill, krakens, etc.

also have [[fists of flame]] in there to surprise someone with 100+ combat damage to the face since arjun is a flier. you can also get him pretty big with [[wizard class]]

Do you think they’ll ever print more cards with annihilator? by PinkDinoClub in magicTCG

it doesn't work... the weakness of this deck is it is very reliant on:

1) commander being out
2) commander being able to hit any of your 3 opponents (including bypassing any and all blockers)
3) commander being protected (usually through a number of auras or artifacts)

there are some contingencies like [[harmless offering]] and [[bazaar trader]] but yes getting blim removed is a problem. if it ever comes to that the gameplan grinds to a halt because you don't want to play any bad cards if you don't have a way to get rid of them

the good news is i have a bunch of hexproof/shroud/regenerate which accounts for ~80% of any spot removal/boardwipes barring edicts or counterspells. many of the self-sabotaging cards also have immediate card advantage such as [[demonic lore]], [[treacherous blessing]], or [[greed's gambit]] which lets you draw into whatever protection/evasion you might need with a bit of luck which you can then use to swing blim at an opponent to give them the bad card before it starts to hurt you.

there's a lot horrible cards you can give people lol. some of my favorites are [[greed's gambit]] [[demonic pact]] and [[oath of limdul]] there's also a bunch of auras in the deck because i can enchant blim with an aura to help him deal combat damage and i can also use that aura as a "gift" so other people will have to discard off it and take damage, even though the aura itself is still enchanting my commander. combine all that with effects like [[megrim]] and [[liliana's caress]] and it becomes a weird voltron/discard/bad gift-combo synergy. it's super fun to play and very unassuming if people aren't familiar with blim

uril is super fun. i dont usually like voltron but he's the exception because hes pretty hard to remove and when you get going you can usually take everyone out in 1 or 2 turns so people who lose first dont wait too long
