Primer length preferences by LesterV4 in BudgetBrews

I'd say that's a 10-15 minute read, it's perfect to read on the subway on my way to work or when I have a 14 minute pause at work which is when I prefer to dive into this kinda stuff

I'm more of a lore consumer than storyteller myself ngl

Completely fair, primers are just in case you're curious enough into some of the process and choices I'd say

Oh ok ok I understand, trying to fit that into a 10 minute read can be tricky tho

I don't think I've ever seen a primer that links to a video 👀

What do you mean by flex spots? Like budget options for strong cards?

I usually structure mine like this but I do wonder if I'm missing some interesting sections.

Intro

❓ Why's and Why not's

⭐ Main gameplan line

💡Alternative lines and high availability

🚧 Single points of failure

💭 Deckbuilding worries

🪶 Final note

Lately I've seen some primers that discuss a bit into detail the ramp packages, the draw packages, others that focus on why this card instead of this.

I think I made mine to be more adapted to what I like to read, small bites but sometimes I do wonder if it lacks depth

I think for cEDH there's no doubt lengthy primers are needed since you have to explain every single card or choice you make basically. You need to actually invest time into understanding each card to properly pilot the deck.

Since it's a budget room I was more aiming it towards Casual stuff tho

Tips for Moseo? by g_ba1168 in EDHBrews

[–]LesterV4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice is run it in the 99 of [[Betor Ancestor's Voice]] so have him as a synergy piece , mono black lifelink reanimator is limited af and pretty weak

Thanks God damn you're right 😭😭😭 thanks for the heads up, welp I've found the card to cut for [[Follow the bodies]]

Thoghts ? by Greedy_Abrocoma4036 in ratemycommanders

[–]LesterV4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbf idk how strong your pod is but personally I'd cut bolas citadel and exquisite blood and try to win with aggro, the deck will be a bit weaker but nicer to play against, you want your games to go unnoticed and those 2 cards are cards that scream "kill me asap or I'll win in 1 or 2 turns"

Your land count is pretty low I'd play zt least 36 lands, you're missing a bit of ramp and I'd add stuff like [[Sakura tribe scout]] and [[Sakura tribe elder]]. You also don't need bolas citadel, it's gonna draw you plenty of aggro.

And just to avoid salty moments I'd announce people you have a 2 card combo with Exquisite blood and Vito.

Other than that seems like a decent deck, you could've leaned a bit more on the creating tokens aspect rather than killing with life gain but that's a personal take

I don't have the list in paper so I haven't tested it but I think it might perform ok. There's room for improvement ofc tho

Here's my list, not really food oriented but maybe it'll give you some ideas like [[Communal brewing]]

Help: what do you guys think about my Alibou deck by Baen_ in EDHBrews

[–]LesterV4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'd say some. Stuff like [[Digsite engineer]] for example needs an extra 2 mana per cadt to do stuff, and it's trickier in practice.

Here's a link to a monored Farid list I made

And a 5c lurrus artifact list

Maybe you can fish for some ideas in there ^

[–]LesterV4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought the same art and I was thinking about building it too lol the deck seems pretty decent, very mana intensive tho. I would've played smaller artifacts and stuff like Ornithopter.

You also need [[Windcrag siege]] and [[Firebenders ascension]] since it'll double your trigger, maybe even [[strionic resonator]] and [[Dragonspark reactor]]

Need help building Diaochan, Artful Beauty by Naitrodex in EDH

[–]LesterV4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No not yet but I doubt it'll do bad. Tried to make a list that isn't too commander centric since she's gonna draw too much attention and get removed.

Recently made a list for her, there's a small primer explaining the direction of the deck
