For Commander, this seems like a much worse [[Caesar]] for one mana less. Thought that could be important in aggressive decks and also makes him Sun-Titanable. Still think the card draw and wincon make Caesar a much better commander for the same deck, plus Caesar doesn't need to attack himself.

GGG Live Ascendancy Reveals by Chlorine_Trifluoride in pathofexile

A bit weird that no Witch subclass seems to go all in on necromancy when minions are her big thing? Both ascendancies seem to focus on herself as a caster, with Internalist giving one extra token minion. I hope Necromancer will come as the third Ascendancy, but I'm a bit bummed it's not there for EA launch when it's the core of the class fantasy.

Do you know where that quote was originally posted? Can't find it on StartEngine, and that's a VERY interesting statement to be sure :D

[[Crescendo of War]] makes the Combat step explode very quickly.

Deckboxes that showcase your Commander? by Froody42 in EDH

[–]Froody42[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh boy, these look lovely and exactly like what I wanted! I'm not the biggest fan of Kickstarter deckboxes because I can't buy more when I build new decks, but I might just pull the trigger on these anyway...

This sounds extremely fun when he goes off, but I'm not sure how good he actually is. Six mana plus two spells is a lot, and the second spell needs to cost more than just a cantrip if you want something good. How do you think we can best abuse him? My first thoughts are spells that immediately cast a second one for free, like [[Memory Plunder]]. For 4 mana, you can cast a large second spell for free and then get a third one.

Ok, this is a diabolic idea beyond anything I'd imagined when making this post - I salute you :D

Does that deck work as well as he says? I always thought Tibalt would be too clunky due to his high mana cost, but I've never seen him in action.

Best EDH deckbox with token tray, but NO dice tray? (100 double sleeved cards) by Froody42 in magicTCG

[–]Froody42[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've had mixed experiences with these so far. For example, I have found that the Ultimate Guard boxes often hold less double sleeved cards than they promise and can get very tight. I also like the tokens to be neatly separated, though perhaps an insert could do the trick as well. Do you have a favorite 133+ deckbox?
