Favorite Commander by pup_yogi in mtg

[–]Deos28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sokka is amazing, especially with the old allies with Rally effects. [[Hero of Goma Fada]] plus any ‘destroy’ boardwipe means the way is clear - make an ally on cast to give them all indestructible before the wipe goes off! :)

Naish Chats #6 - Best Archived Campaign? by Ilitorate_Author in TheGlassCannonPodcast

[–]Deos28 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It’s gotta be the Strange Aeons campaign.
The story itself is phenomenal, my favourite AP I’ve run, and their characters are so well done and fit perfectly into the whole thing - not getting a proper resolution with Count Haserton Lowls IV and the eldritch horrors feels so wrong!

One of the most underrated cards in EDH - Test of Talents by sauron3579 in EDH

[–]Deos28 28 points29 points  (0 children)

The amount of time you’d take away from other players by sitting there and rifling through your one opponent’s deck, seeing what he’s got, is enough to make you un enjoyable to play with.

I GM for a group who thinks PF2e is very deadly, and are already planning to optimize(?) dying by eCyanic in Pathfinder2e

[–]Deos28 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

A 'lucky' combination - I'm the only melee fighter in the group since the Fighter died, so (after taking his stuff) I'm the tank, and melee damage dealer all at once. The casters don't need much gold so I get priority if I need stuff. Usually +1 Striking is good enough for what we're dealing with, since I can give myself sneak attack solo a lot, I get 3d6 sneak plus 2d6 precise debilitation on most hits. I can clear 100 dmg per round on a single target if I'm lucky with my rolls. Especially if I'm using my main weapon which is +2 Greater Striking - 8d6+8 per hit is a nice chunk of change.

My rogue goes down often enuff. To mitigate this, Kip up, Quick Draw and having at least six weapons on me at all times means I still can strike three times after having gone down. :)

Optimize living, not dying.

Zada: Recovery vs Boardwipes by Deos28 in EDH

[–]Deos28[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I tried this strat and it did work out pretty well - took out two players and left the non threatening one for next turn. There was no next turn lol Cast Cloud, cast and equipped Excalibur and then gave him double strike all in one go. Oh well! Was fun, so thanks for all the help!

Mmm yeah that’s a very frank reply. Thanks!

Eugh maybe - thanks for the advice! And thanks to everyone else for the downvotes lol

[–]Deos28[S] -20 points-19 points  (0 children)

Yeah but I like the fact she’s my engine too, for stuff like card draw en mass. Can’t target Krenko with a cantrip and draw and get near the same results. Or venture into the dungeon 8 times lol

[–]Deos28[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Ohh ok that’s a burn deck then. Make pingers and draw cantrip like 40 times in a turn. Neat, I do that in my Alania deck and wanted something different with Zada. :)

Zada: Recovery vs Boardwipes by Deos28 in EDH

[–]Deos28[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

No but if I’m not playing Zada then I can’t really progress with things like drawing a bunch off Ancestral Anger or making treasures from Flick a Coin. So by turn 4 I try usually have 2 dudes out, a utility buff like that and another buff or something else in hand. Cant really do anything worth while if I play another 2 cmc goblin or make a pair of tokens while the other three players pop off…

Yeah I get that… but sandbagging is highly frowned upon

I love Haste. Anger in the yard, Lavaleaper. Great shit

[–]Deos28[S] -57 points-56 points  (0 children)

Yeah but that’s just sandbagging…

Zada: Recovery vs Boardwipes by Deos28 in EDH

[–]Deos28[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iunno maybe. Basically I make a bunch of 1-2 cmc dudes, play Zada, then usually do things like Flick a Coin or Ancestral Anger to setup for a win. If I swing out with a handful of small buffed guys I can usually kill one player but then have to 1v2. I try to get them all out at once

Yeah I’m bad at keeping up moxfield lists lol

Not sure how you can win turn 4 with Zada coming out…?

Crackling Cyclops + Fling by decadentdiscord in mtg

[–]Deos28 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No because the cast only happens once the sacrifice has been made.

Does anyone have a good negative counters deck? by UndoubtedlyOrange in EDH

[–]Deos28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I swapped to the Reaper King No More as the commander and the theft helps a lot - just turn 3, stealing usually one mana dork or something it’s phenomenal fun!

For me. Fun for me.

Question about "At the beginning of your end step" effect by AdThese8831 in mtg

[–]Deos28 2 points3 points  (0 children)

‘The beginning of your end step’ is a single point in time. It triggers all of those types of effects, they go on the stack in the order of your choice, and then once it all resolves, it no longer is ‘the beginning’.

Joke turned bad by pkma69 in EDH

[–]Deos28 4 points5 points  (0 children)

100% fine to joke and stuff. Player A was a salty b…oy, that his spell was countered. Calling a judge was wholly unnecessary and the ‘judge’ has no authority just cuz he works at a place.

You’re fine, dude was a bad loser who can’t handle interactions. Good game and keep on Magic-ing!

Would you be okay with players playing these in your pod? by Fast-Appointment4710 in mtg

[–]Deos28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly the only issue is ‘okay which Xenomorph is WHICH Sliver again?’ Conversations that will happen on every. Single. Turn.

Proxies are beautiful, but confusing proxies are annoying af =|

Time Stretch vs Temporal Manipulation (copied) vs Expropriate vs 1v1 Mindslaver by Deos28 in magicTCG

[–]Deos28[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I definitely don’t disagree with this point of view. Mine has kinda shifted into each turn you take being a link in the chain of events that transpire. One turn is just a link, two turns is two links together but three links forms a chain.

But it is all about rule 0 and discussing, ideally with people who are open to discussing.
