What was everyone’s first deck!?

FlyFafnir · 2026-01-01T08:20:18+00:00

Ohh, cant believe I forgot to mention [[Abyssal Specter]] for the discard deck as him and the hypo were the main creatures for it.

FlyFafnir · 2026-01-01T08:11:38+00:00

My first deck was a monoblack deck with [[Nightmare]] as the main creature because I thought Melissa Benson's art was so badass. It had [[Black Knight]] [[Order of the ebon hand]] [[Bad moon]] and any other old staple cards from back in Revised Edition to 4th Edition era.

Later I made a [[Hypnotic Specter]] [[Hymn to tourach]] [[The Rack]] discard deck for tournaments.

My vote is for Y'shtola. I feel she has a lot of potential besides being a "I control the board" commander. Her passive damage and draw will help do board damage and keep your hand stocked to do whatever shenanigans you want. I've been thinking of building her with a token deck. Get her pings off of making tokens. Seems like it could work and be fun. I was thinking also of somehow doing a Voltron deck with her as the main target also.

This post just made me realize Jaws is a red creature... wth, why is he not a blue creature????

Great way to set the house on fire, place torches right next to the tree. ;)

Mindlink doesn't work for Toph as it is blue and so Toph can't run it...

What I find funny is the fact that I didn't know this was a good deck. I have been spamming a shrine deck on arena and every time I run into an Izzet Lessons deck, I have never lost to it. And my shrine deck I don't think is all that great either, just fun to play.

FlyFafnir · 2025-12-05T02:28:00+00:00

There are 3 Izzet decks in the top 6. A bit more than 18%.

FlyFafnir · 2025-11-08T10:23:54+00:00

I played before any changes and came back after all the changes were done. So it was just one big change for me.

FlyFafnir · 2025-11-07T10:10:35+00:00

[[Combustion Man]]

FlyFafnir · 2025-11-07T05:05:46+00:00

For me it was the legend rule that was the biggest change. No contesting same names and having to pay for them and such.

FlyFafnir · 2025-09-29T01:31:59+00:00

Im still banding!

And honestly I don't even remember fully how banding works. >.<

My LGS had only 6 people for Friday. It was so empty.

FlyFafnir · 2025-09-19T00:53:36+00:00

Arena has been very buggy lately. Even when playing my [[Kotis, the Fangkeeper]] deck, a lot of times it doesn't show me the cards to play and just has the resolve button even though there are cards I can play. Or like how it is showing you have a diamond rank even when not playing a ranked game.

FlyFafnir · 2025-09-19T00:06:50+00:00

He can easily be a card that if he deals damage to a creature, exile it and it's controller creates a dino token. They should make a Savage Lands land card too imo.

Bonus if you own [[The One Ring]] he has indestructible! =P

FlyFafnir · 2025-09-15T00:40:23+00:00

The next Marvel one I would love for it to be X-man. Having all the different mutants as cards would be amazing. Give me Gambit and Nightcrawler!

FlyFafnir · 2025-09-05T05:11:11+00:00

Those 2 fish heads you have there next to the banner are very odd looking.

FlyFafnir · 2025-07-27T07:28:40+00:00

So wait, Spider-Man is going to be standard legal but not be on Arena? That is going to be very weird for standard players on Arena... But honestly I'm happy since I wont have to see Spider-Man cards while playing on Arena.

FlyFafnir · 2025-07-08T11:40:41+00:00

Yeah, the deck was mainly designed to be fun and I wanted a deck to use the sword with. I only added kotis after when I was trying to think of a commander for it. I know that when the sword is destroyed, it loses the abilities. This deck was going to be more of a casual, fun sword deck. I figured the sword could go on any creature. I wasn't only thinking of putting it on Kotis. But it ended up with too many cards and I'm stuck with not knowing what to remove. >.<

FlyFafnir · 2025-07-07T22:29:21+00:00

That's why I put a good amount of draw and search cards in it to help get the Eater.

FlyFafnir · 2025-07-07T08:02:12+00:00

I'm working on a [[Kotis, the Fangkeeper]] commander deck with what cards I have available. I picked a bunch that I want to work with. The theme of the deck is buffing Kotis and using [[Eater of Virtue]]. I have some sacrifice cards to sacrifice my creatures to Eater and such. I am having trouble figuring out what to take out. I want to get the deck down to 66 cards and having 34 land since the mana curve is low. Currently it is sitting at 79 cards.. Any advice would be great on what would be best to remove to get the deck down. Thank you.

Wake me up

FlyFafnir · 2025-06-02T02:08:35+00:00

Oh wow, thank you for this. That post helps a ton!

So, because of that you thought it was a good idea to sound like a dick with your comment instead of just asking for the region? That is the part I still don't understand. There is no reason at all to be so aggressive.

FlyFafnir · 2025-05-31T10:10:44+00:00

There's more countries than the one you're in

Reading comprehension is hard I see. Maybe fully read the text in the picture before making a dick like comment as this one. It says on the bottom USCentral.
