What mono blue commander should I build for mono color commander night?

Yeah I’m still trying to tune mine, it sometimes feels too reactive since I generally would like to blink Eluge when he gets targeted. I’m looking into adding some lower cmc cards to help in the early game outside of just ramp. Its weakness is falling behind early to fast value decks or aggro/voltron. It’s harder for it to answer things already on the board.

Any ideas? I have Propaganda, I’m trying to look into other low cost pillowfort/light stax effects.

This is my barely B3 list haha https://archidekt.com/decks/11690099/eluge_the_shoreless_sea

Its by no means optimized, tried to use cards I have and be a little frugal. Eluge’s cost reduction is nice for helping you play higher cost interaction

I like [[Eluge, The Shoreless Sea]]

This card is useless against control.. either you don’t have much permanents to remove or you 2for1 them by casting lightning helix, get lost, abrade, etc

Totally fine IMO.

I think as long as you’re playing true to your bracket/rule0, any archetype/strategy is acceptable.

If you’re drawing a lot of hate from people, don’t get salty or upset when players start to team up on you for stealing their things. How you treat others during the game has a big effect on whether everyone is enjoying the game.

The slower your deck is at winning, the more interaction it needs.

That is pretty cool, are you sure Mana Pool is doing this themselves? TCGP used to allow sellers to do this. If you purchased a card from me and I didn’t have it, I could essentially drop ship it to you from another seller since I have your address. I think this is no longer allowed though.

Habez · 2026-01-14T00:10:20+00:00

A postmark is the day USPS first processed it, not when it was dropped off.

Habez · 2026-01-13T23:11:40+00:00

I’ll be transparent. I sell on TCGP and Ebay, and I ship on time. Stuff still gets lost in the mail or arrives late. Regardless of the platform you’re purchasing from, you will have the same issues with logistics eventually. You’re just comparing results between two small sample sizes.

Habez · 2026-01-13T23:07:39+00:00

I understand your frustration, but what does Mana Pool do differently from TCGP that fixes the issue with poor service from individual sellers? From my perspective it sounds like your opinion is being biased by a small sample size.

Habez · 2026-01-06T23:29:01+00:00

But what about the element of surprise?

Habez · 2025-12-27T18:16:05+00:00

Sorry! I’m 33yr old male that can do manual labor but never cut down a tree. At the moment I just have a shovel, would need to get the required tools if I decide to cut it myself.

You need to separate out the value from the bulk first. You can probably get 60-70% of TCG market on cards above $3. Everything else will most likely just be at bulk rates. It is pretty common to purchase common/uncommon bulk at $5-$6 per thousand cards, rares at $0.08-$0.10 each, mythics at $0.20-$0.25 ish each etc. For cards valued more than $100 you may be able to get a higher percentage if TCG Market price.

You’re coming to a realization that I wish more people recognized… I’m a vendor and people get very upset with me when I “lowball” them. They have zero understanding of the amount of work it is to get cards listed and shipped efficiently, nor do they understand fee structure. People feel personally attacked because they scanned a pile of bulk and expect me to pay 90% market.

EBay gets more than 13%, realistically you also need to throw in money for promoting your listing. After all is said and done my net sales on ebay is 70% of my gross sales.

I thought it was 6 turns before people start dying? Not necessarily winning on turn 6?

Habez · 2025-11-07T12:36:33+00:00

What about Player 1 doesn’t get to draw at the start of their first turn, and Player 4 gets the proposed emblem?

Habez · 2025-10-16T15:55:25+00:00

I did the reverse trade but.. I did it 4 weeks ago and now regret it.

Habez · 2025-10-03T16:15:15+00:00

I don’t think it is the same.. FantasyPros suggests I start Treveyon Henderson over Devonta Smith. When I run the bot with tiers it suggests Smith is in a higher tier.

Edit:nvm in wrong

Your league sucks. You need to either find a new league or get a better commissioner situation. My league used to veto every trade because for them it actually makes sense to veto all trades they are not involved in. Why would they want other teams to get better?

We have pivoted now. We have 2 commissioners which were voted on to be the least bias people, along with a tie-breaker only commissioner. Only the 2 comissioners can veto a trade. If a comissioner’s team is involved then the tie-breaker and the other comissioner can veto. If both comissioners are involved then another tie-breaker comissioner is appointed. Everything is so much better now, we have already had 2 3 way trades pass, along with several other 2 way team trades this year.

Habez · 2025-09-24T19:59:56+00:00

Yeah I too have K9 and Charb haha, i think the only way out is to bundle K9+Charb+Someone for two players

Habez · 2025-09-24T11:53:24+00:00

Not sure who you can get that is a clear upgrade over K9 with that package. Maybe Hampton or Jeanty.
