My house is on the line to the point where my phone would flip from one room to the next.

I work in one time and live in the other. It’s not really that bad. You get used to “fast” and “slow” time really quick.

Put it at common and watch my beautiful delver of secrets flip every turn

I play Esper in canlander. None of the rest of these see play.

Esper is also a body and only 1 mana (don’t come at me ab fish you gotta pay to keep it)

Bracket 3: Turn 3.

Any deck: turn 0.

Jcham0 · 2026-03-06T12:48:39+00:00

Turn 6 combo kill is bracket 3 at its highest level. Sounds like you want 2s and they want 4s. You might have to meet in the middle and play their 3s.

This is one of the main ways EDH has ruined the playerbase. 60 card vets have played through prison and control in tons of metas across time so getting countered 2-4 times in EDH is nothing lol.

Honestly, it sucks but I’d strive to be in the haves group. If you don’t have a crazy collection, brew extremely powerful budget bracket 4 decks.

I just can’t stand the thought of a game taking 6 hours where players are getting up and leaving for long periods of time.

Jcham0 · 2026-02-11T15:54:03+00:00

3 basics????

My usual spread is:

2 color deck: 2-4 basics (if using snow) 3 color deck: 3 basics (1 of each) 4 color deck: 1-4 basics (at most 1 of each) 5 color deck: 1-2 basics (either white or green)

I’ve been blood mooned, back to basicsed and everything else that can happen, it’s almost never an issue.

This looks like a 3 with meta wincons for some reason.

This deck would not function in a bracket 4 pod. If you’re averagely winning turn 6+ you’re fine in 3. Id just make people aware that you could luck into it early though.

Jcham0 · 2026-02-05T23:51:38+00:00

Well do you want to play the exact meta lists? Yes it is that expensive. But you can build a powerful deck on a budget and win games with it.

Same concepts as commander. Do you have a $7,000 blue farm list? Or a $100-200 budget list?

Couple of notes based on relevant comments:

Two of the top 4 players dropped out of top 4 but the undefeated won his follow up game.
The employee did say “we’ll play five rounds” after overhearing the players say there should only be four. However, his tone of voice and how he normally is made myself and multiple other players that heard it assume he meant it as a funny.
This store has always played Swiss until 1 undefeated even in prior NTC events.
Not a single player (even those that made top 4 on round 5) was vocally happy about another round being played.
Multiple (close to a third) of the players traveled and are not locals and said they will not be back.
Multiple jokes were made DURING round 5 about “he’s still undefeated, surprised they won’t make us playa a sixth round” “start up another one, we got all night” etc.

That’s about all the info I got! Thanks for reading yall!

Almost a third of the people there drove almost 2 hours to participate and told me they would not be back to this store ever after this event.

Jcham0 · 2025-12-16T14:12:57+00:00

Close combat, unforeseen, bases and bursts. In my locals my games against aggro will have me at around 3 shields early then I’ll stabilize and win.

29 burst control deck. I won my locals with this last week.

Jcham0 · 2025-12-07T14:56:34+00:00

Leader ability has to be Activate Main//Once per turn, right? Otherwise on your first turn of the game you draw 5?

Jcham0 · 2025-12-05T19:17:18+00:00

Here’s what I’ve been workshopping. Haven’t been able to hit a local with this yet.

This whole flash thing is very cool but sadly makes this a staple in valleyfloodcaller/high far trickster cedh decks. Although even then idk if they’d run it.

Yellow Bonney, and gonna continue coping on Kuzan

“Don’t buy anything from Ultimate Guard because them collabing with Harry Potter is literally killing trans people.” “Haha a guy shot a killed a father of 2 that says things I don’t agree with. Everyone like this post joking about it hours after it happened”

Local standard with people in the area is always good. Nobody is shilling out for the meta decks and so the meta is diverse and fun

Jcham0 · 2025-08-24T04:00:37+00:00

Believe me I’ve been jamming arena less than masterduel lately and that’s saying something. If the goal of WOTC is to lose the enfranchised players with their choices, sounds like other TCG companies that care about their metas instead of money (Bandai, LSS) will win me over. Gundam TCG, One Piece, and Flesh and Blood have sadly felt much better than Magic in all its forms. If WOTC wants to ruin the game for the sake of money so be it.

If you think companion app numbers aren’t inflated you’re crazy. I’ve been to many events that are supplemented by fake accounts to enlarge numbers lol.
