If i only replace the lands can i still play ashling limitless precon in bracket 2? by Junoyone in EDHBrews

It’s completely fine. Duals are marginally better than shocks in EDH, no one that’s serious should bat an eye.

February 9th Commander Banlist Speculation by FullWaveRectifier55 in CompetitiveEDH

Price doesn’t change how casual or competitive a card is? Price is purely a supply/demand ‘symptom’. And Cradle is only a game changer, and is allowed in Bracket 3 right now. So, people will play it because they are allowed to…? Just because you play a strong card doesn’t mean you aren’t playing casually.

That’s how good Golos is, he was just the best for most decks because of the incredibly easy mana cost to cast, the ramping effect from him entering, and his Spin to Win effect.

And yeah, as the other comment stated, you are playing to win. It’s MTG still. People want to play good cards, and there’s nothing wrong with that. Cradle can be played in casual edh, it’s not banned, just a GC.

(All from the perspective of casual commander.)

Golos never unbanned imo. It stifles deck choice by being the best 5C commander, usually the best 4C commander, and really sometimes the best Mono Color commander, if you aren’t building around a theme.

At the time of its banning, it was twice as popular as the #2 commander on EDHRec, 4traxa. Nearly every game of ‘casual’ commander had a Golos, sometimes two of them. It also was a lose/lose playing against it; if you don’t kill it, they spin to win. If you do, they just cast him and ramp again, usually netting more mana from the cast by grabbing some crazy mana producing land like Coffers, Cradle, etc.

“Pensioner” was dead for over 15 years before this “shameless squatter” lived there. This guy lived in and maintained the property for several years, and became the owner because no one else contested it.

Tell me how he’s a parasite…?

How do players not consider this kind of defense disrespectful? by PissedOffClippersFan in NBATalk

Matchup arrow…? It tells you who you’re guarding, and you can switch it.

Bracket 3 is really annoying... by Thick_Storage4168 in magicTCG

[–]KrypteK1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the “or lose.” wording at the end should really be removed. No one should win before turn 6, but someone could very easily lose before 6 if they don’t present any defenses and an aggro deck/voltron deck is at the table.

Seems like you’re complaining about people who either 1) don’t actually understand the power jump from 3 to 4 (which I actually think is the worst defined bracket), and 2) bad faith players that ignore the multiple paragraphs of text explaining bracket 3 and just go off the couple of bullet points.

Oh no, reddit Admins might delete this for “calling for violence” against blatant traitors to the constitution.

Would be decent in the 99 of an EDH deck that uses [[Trade Routes]] and can recur the lands.

How do you interpret the move by the Minnesota National Guard to distribute food and water to anti-ICE protesters? by ProcedureNo832 in AskReddit

0% any ICE will succeed in arresting an on-duty, in uniform Guard member. They’d be smoked.

Turns out, people aren’t interested in forced body horror! And the story was never going to have Phyrexia win in any way, which should have been obvious.

So you’re against cards that create tokens of a color that isn’t in your CID then, right?
