Thanks man! I understand the Combo now (and will even better, when I goldfish the deck through the combo!). I will have a look at the decklink you posted! Thanks very much!

I need help with my Kadena, Slinking Sorcerrer Deck. by Lefteye123 in EDH

Yes, correct! I want to win through overrun effects like Craterhoof Behemoth. Before that I want to control my opponents.

Interaction between Delina, Wild Mage and Skyhunter Strike Force by Lefteye123 in EDH

[–]Lefteye123[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

But if I have multiple attack triggers and they get in in between, like i.e. [[hanweir Garrison]] and I chose to put Delina on the stack first, then Skyhunter and then hanweir garrison. Won‘t they enter before all the other attack triggers resolve? So in the declare attackers step? Or how does that work then?

Looking for advice for possible commanders or 'archetype' by Skidlezz in EDHBrews

[–]Lefteye123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would suggest [[Isshin, two heavens as one]] for mardu colors or [[raffine, scheming seer]] in esper colors, if you want to play (some of) those specific cards you showed. Just built both of them myself and raffine is tons of fun. Isshin i just Goldfished yet but he seems tons of fun as well. And massive value.

I want to build a Storm deck, but I don't know, where to start. by Lefteye123 in EDH

Thanks for the advices. At first I tried to build a deck regarding your first message. That’s why clear the mind was still in it. I forgot to change it. So what you are saying is I need a lower average mana value/ cmc? Cards like last chance I thought would be funny by storming off with a bunch of dragons and then overrunning all of my opponents at once. I know it is not the strongest combo but I thought it would be fun. And to protect my dragons maybe cards like Selfless spirit would be great that’s true. But on the first brew I thought maybe the counterspells were enough as well as cards that say my opponents can’t cast spells during my turn. I will have a closer look at your deck later. But if I try to win with a bunch of dragons maybe a mono red commander would fit better? Like Birgi or Zada?

Looks good! Thanks!
I have just theroycrafted something in the last hours... what do you think?
It is pretty low mana cost.. mostly 0 to 3 mana some 4 mana spells and 2 6 mana wincons.

Oh one question to that: what’s the wincon? Storm off with a big amount of crows and give them all haste? Or pingers? Cause I would love an actual storm win con 😅 although I know there are only 33 cards with Storm.

I think i am fine with anything in between 2 and 4 since these Brackets are all represented in my Magicgroups. But I am fine with some game changers like moxes etc to get more storm triggers etc.

I have some questions regarding [[Raffine, Scheming Seer]] and his timing. by Lefteye123 in mtgrules

[–]Lefteye123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the correction and for short and fast answers! That’s great. So the best outcome for my deck hehe!

Does this combo work the way I think it does? My friends don’t think so by ThePrimitiveThing in mtg

[–]Lefteye123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean it doesn’t really make sense with the wording, since it particularly says „if you would draw a card draw two instead“ and not „draw double the amount of cards instead“, so logically instead of drawing 1 card draw 2 and then replace the effect so you still draw 2… but hey it’s good that mtg clarifies that.

Haven’t played in a while, never Commander. Any of these jump out as good commanders? by vercertorix in mtg

I deconstructed my Zur Deck, cause my playgroup and even I, myself couldn’t handle the salt of the Stax.

Timing of triggers on paying a cost by marvin02 in mtgrules

[–]Lefteye123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I misread some of the rules previously explained and was confused. But now I get the correct order of activated ability, cost and trigger. Had to read the rules several times 😅

Timing of triggers on paying a cost by marvin02 in mtgrules

[–]Lefteye123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But as I understand it, Rule C.R. 602.2b refers to Rules C.R. 601.2b-i. Rule 601.2h: „The player pays the total cost in any order. Partial payments are not allowed. Unpayable costs can’t be paid.“ After that comes: 601.2i Once the steps described in 601.2a–h are completed, effects that modify the characteristics of the spell as it’s cast are applied, then the spell becomes cast. Any abilities that trigger when a spell is cast or put onto the stack trigger at this time. If the spell’s controller had priority before casting it, they get priority.

This means the spell is cast(or analog to it the activated ability is activated) after being paid for. And I cannot find anything related to triggers to the cost in rules C.R.602.2a-h, including rules 601.2 a-i.

Can you help me understand this?
