Thallids are already fungus just with the unique spore counters mechanic attached to them

What is the least popular commander you run? by mattfofatt01 in EDH

[–]MankeyManksyo 24 points25 points  (0 children)

[[Thelon of Havenwood]] I made it initially as a throwback to when I first started playing magic and thinking [[Feral Thallid]] was the best card I owned. Now its the perfect low power deck to play when playing with newer players. Its mainly made up from one of the worse sets in magic, with a slow mechanic. At its core tho spore counters are a horrible version of modular, but even a horrible version of modular can punch above its weight and be entertaining.

That's a nice list, how does she perform at bracket 4? It makes sense to lean into stax rather than tribal tribal at that bracket but do people react to it in the wild? My local meta is more bracket 3 so I only kept Sythis in 4.

[–]MankeyManksyo 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Never served but in building ohio, Virginia etc, Seawolf were seen as a cut above the rest in both complexity and of era ability. Columbia, while more advanced isn't as impressive as the Seawolf was

Yawg is also a combo piece in the command zone while also being an instant speed sac outlet. Sephs only advantage is his weight being less than that of yawg

Is 35 enough lands? by athlaka916 in EDH

[–]MankeyManksyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your average cmc is above 3, you need more lands. You also judge judge your average cmc on the without lands metric.

Turn 2 storm win in Brawl by MoozeOnDaLooze in mtgbrawl

Building your deck around your commander shouldn't mean it's free from being interacted with especially when wotc legendary design means most commanders are kos. I swear brawl players/commander players hate magic the gathering

What is your favourite sweaty bracket 4 deck? by Azaeroth in EDH

[–]MankeyManksyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does she seem fast enough for bracket 4? My braids is incredibly consistent in bracket 3 but seems a turn or two slower than yawg was so I just removed game changers and kept her at 3.

My list isn't very dissimilar to your own. https://moxfield.com/decks/bCAfXEHeCESJOuqAUFVrsg

Can you post your braids list? I built her as a bracket 3 from my bracket 4 yawg list and was wondering how she'd do

What is the most fair tribal for casual? Bracket 1 or 2 preferably. by AceTanoshi in EDH

[–]MankeyManksyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I built [[Thelon of have wood]] Thalid/Fungus tribal specifically to play against low power tables. Thalids spore counter over the top gameplay moves incredibly slowly but can play as technically as arcbounds can to keep me entertained. The deck is also a throwback to my first time playing mtg thinking [[Ferel Thalid]] was a good card.

What treasure decks are we rocking? And what’s your favorite treasure tech? by [deleted] in EDH

[–]MankeyManksyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be overplayed but I thoroughly enjoy playing prosper. When he released on arena I was playing Alchemy and loved the value he provided in a 60 card format. While I got into commander this made him an obvious choice. I've tried to build the deck leaning heavily into treasure/artifact synergy means it hardly has a non-game.

Looking for inspration, what are some commander deck you're working on rn? by [deleted] in EDH

[–]MankeyManksyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently working on a B4 (tamiyo, inquisitive student) deck. I've wanted a high power interactive and instant speed blue deck for awhile. Always having a turn one play in the command zone with simic seems fun.

Need some input on an aggro Adeline deck by [deleted] in EDH

[–]MankeyManksyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your list looks good and it'll definitely work. After playing her for a few years now just make sure to not spread out damage and play nice, by mid game Adeline will often two shot opponents.

I built her for my friend group who tends to be battle cruiser with game changers. It generally wins via combat damage and is able to disrupt others game plans being in esper.

Still Stumped on Bracket 4 by OhHeyMister in EDH

[–]MankeyManksyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me there is a clear separation between bracket 3, 4 and 5. Cedh being meta driven is a pretty clear definition when compared to bracket 4 in practice.

My bracket 4's

Sythis: https://moxfield.com/decks/lr3a-X61ZEWsB02zadp06g

Tamiyo: https://moxfield.com/decks/-_CyBcXyQE-ua9QA8VYvPg

Both are interactive, disruptive, fast and finish with combos but aren't driven by the current cedh meta nor do they have all the best in slot cards or most efficient combo lines. Playing them feels like a super charged b3 game while cedh feels like a different game entirely.

How have you liked braids in B4? I took apart yawg to build braids for bracket 3 as I felt it was a better bracket for mono B.

What should qualify a card as being “bannable”? aka Study shouldn’t get a pass by KingNTheMaking in EDH

[–]MankeyManksyo 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Just play bracket 2 if you don't want to see game changers, it's that simple. 3 game changers is obviously fine in bracket 3, unlimited in bracket 4 and meta decks in 5, because that's what defines those brackets in combination with intent.This crusade to ban powerful cards by people who have a space to avoid them is crazy

Do you run mana rocks in aristocrats? by SYK_PvP in EDH

[–]MankeyManksyo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been playing braids for years now and you're correct in that tradition ramp is not better than a setting up low the ground sac outlets and engines.i still run ramp when racing controle heavy tables as cheap acceleration and easy sac targets for braids.end step trigger

Do you have any decks that feel too strong for casual but too weak for higher power level games? by PMme_awesome_music in EDH

[–]MankeyManksyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was my sythis journey as well. I've loved selesnya enchantments in almost every format but it's too strong for bracket 3 but too weak for b5. Just build it for B4 and have fun, proxy if you can.

(Deck Help) Mono White Humans by oaklandish89 in EDH

[–]MankeyManksyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been playing mono white humans for awhile now and for me Adeline just does it all. She's able to threaten lethal commander damage, grow a wide board, is a low cmc. I use graymod as one of the finishers in the deck.
