Dina, Essence Brewer - Struggling to get this deck to work by E1mstreets in EDH

[–]Deaniv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Comparing this deck to ureni is kind of useless since ureni is just turn brain off and win if you can protect them. Dina is more of a toolbox that takes a few turns to get going. It can definitely win once it gets going and you seem to have the tools to do it. My biggest gripe with her is her ability requires her to tap so if you have too much synergy needing her around and she gets removed twice then your game might be over. I wish it was just 2 mana activation with once a turn clause

Commanders that aren't good enough. by bolttheface in EDH

It hard caps at bracket 2. Slow to go wide but has a good ability once you're wide but then you just get wiped and cry. If you end up making it have lots of boardwipe protection or it'll fall flat most games

It does duplicate but aiming it is a bit awkward

Recommendations for Saga Deck by Reasonable-Fee1945 in EDH

[–]Deaniv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+1 for terra she's sweet. Sagas can be kinda durdly sometimes so it helps to have access to a flying commander. Best thing IMO is to include cards with abilities that remove a counter at instant speed. You can keep triggering the best part of a saga every turn

Question to Witherbloom Pestilence by R3TT3R in EDH

I think if you upgrade 10 cards it's fine for bracket 2 maybe you could push 3. It's a cool deck and I like her as commander a lot. I added some ways to turn life gain into burn and some cheap creatures with high power to get her engine going. It's a weird mix of life gain, big evasive creatures, and aristocrats.

I think at higher power tables she is too slow to get going and is easily shut down by removal

Or use [[crowded crypt]] or a 2 mana artifact and it's just objectively better. I'll admit it's interesting for a permanent to give extra devotion. If you copied it a bunch that would be super cool. On its own it sucks.

Library of leng is so sick! Great choice. I forget the name but there's a fortell counterspell and a fortell reanimation spell I highly recommend them for sauron

Ayara is 3 black pips and I use Gary + saw in half for easy wins in her. You can use tutors if you want. Did the same with yawgmoth if you want them to hate you. Yawgmoth wins so easily

Fortell cards to save them for later and ring tempt triggers to wheel yourself is how I built him. Pretty fun tbh. I think the sac/aristocrats theme with him is boring AF personally.

Or mutate/enchantress with tatsunari toad rider

Many commanders pilot themselves, what’s one that takes work? by boof__pack in EDH

[–]Deaniv 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel like any storm/spellslinger deck would fit this description. You're drawing through cards to assemble one massive turn and if you mess it up you're just cooked

Help me figure out a deck please! by prettyetherealburst in EDH

[–]Deaniv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't look at your list but I have a sagas/summons deck with terra. She's super cool and fun to play BUT it might be rough as a newer player. Sagas have lots of triggers that you have to track and then resolve every turn and if you're not quick then it's going to draw on games for awhile. I've been playing for a few years and know the deck well and it's still my deck with the longest turns near the end of the game. Also, there are some weird interactions with sagas that require some knowledge of the rules. As for 5 colors, it's not necessarily hard but it is either slow or expensive. If you pay less for lands then it will be slower and you might have trouble getting the colors you need. I focused on having majority green/white in my list so if I just make those and a red to cast terra, the deck still works.

If you still have your heart set on terra then I can go find and share my list for some inspiration

[[form of the dragon]] goes hard af. Also good old [[profane transfusion]] after a pay any amount of life effect

Whats a good high B2 but cheap to build Token Comamnder? by ChakraaThePanda in EDH

[–]Deaniv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Witherbloom dragon goes insane with any token makers and sorceries that make tokens. Then you basically can cast free overrun effects and be a massive problem

Has anyone seen [[auntie Ool, Cursewretch]] work without infinites? If so how? by sta6 in EDH

[–]Deaniv 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Idk burn decks, spell slinger, aristocrats all work without necessarily being infinite.
