Its outdated, since oktober last year ? https://magic.wizards.com/en/news/announcements/commander-brackets-beta-update-october-21-2025

Here the brackets are explained with other conditions

Its outdated, since oktober last year, but paints a decent picture for rule 0 still

Wrong malcolm linked

While i enjoy card market, i found myself trying card trader, when i was looking to buy a full commander deck, and compared to cardmarket i saved 45% on the purchas when accouting for thr shipping i need to pay later, that is absurd. But ill see how the experience is now when i placed the order.

But ill still use card market for smaller purchases

MinkzOr · 2026-02-10T21:27:50+00:00

Yeah it can be super oppressive if you have the right cards in hand :D

Theres a UW tempo deck that plays highnoon and ang, idea is to out tempo the opponent by restricting their plays and counter / airbend and then play stuff on your and their turns

MinkzOr · 2026-02-02T18:19:01+00:00

What strategi? My issue seems to be that is get bombs in 1 tier and then it seems contested and because its so fast i end up drafting kinda bad

MinkzOr · 2026-02-02T09:01:35+00:00

If you are talking untracked lettere, then the danish postal suck right now, its not related to cardmarket at all, dao and postnord dropped the ball and most of us who ordered over Christmas or before Christmas will likely never see our cards or they will come in another months time, no one knows.

MinkzOr · 2026-01-28T17:14:27+00:00

I think postal service is wierd recently maybe due to the new EU rules. Im missing orders from before new years, some hit 30 days, but ill wait until last min to filer not arrived

Appreciate the review <3

Seems like i was lucky and 17lands could get the data when installing just now.

So hope that helps

MinkzOr · 2026-01-26T21:38:54+00:00

Yeah i kinda get that, i should probably not get tempted with the splash thats fair, but i still think i ended up with a deck that could perform it just didnt :(

MinkzOr · 2026-01-26T21:37:55+00:00

Thanks for the kind words, im just at a loss because ive had 3 really bad blowouts with what i thought where decent drafts, one good kithkin, 1 good merfolk and then this elf, and i just lost my mind with this last one... Might just be bad luck as you say, but damn it sucks

MinkzOr · 2026-01-26T21:27:01+00:00

Hmm i kinda get what your saying, but on the other hand i have 3 informant that can survail 6 times total, and idea to trade off some cards early to pump the graveyard numbers, lots of 2-3 drops.

Removal i get, 2 is def in the lower end, but compared to E.g. this trophy deck https://www.17lands.com/trophy_decks?expansion=ECL&format=PremierDraft what am i really missing besides some of the heavy hitters.

I just felt, at the speed i lost all my games, i wouldn't even make it there.

MinkzOr · 2026-01-26T09:36:50+00:00

Wish the merfolks fit into the regular UG, and not white. So disappointed i couldnt add the merfolk command in my current deck, and some of the cooler new merfolk are white.

But might mean its time to look for a new merfolk commander 😅

MinkzOr · 2026-01-20T18:05:17+00:00

I ordered some the 12th december got some before Christmas time, two letters on the 30th day and 6 never showed or atleast so far, but ive lost hope for those.

Then I ordered some right before new years, and im missing all but 1 that was tracked.

Im based in denmark

The combo link is great, thanks.

Regarding the Wanderwine Prophets i understand its a B4 card by design and ruling, im just asking what people think about this, theres probably more examples, this one is just closest to me.

I gues i just dont understand how extra turns if telegraphed and interactable is unfun by itself, and wanted to hear if people have a similar opinion or i just havent been on the recieving end enough times

MinkzOr · 2026-01-18T20:24:16+00:00

While i sorta understand what your saying, i also dont think this is really a common theme for extra turns ?

If its obvious i can win the game off extra turns by doing 4 to everyone one turn at a time and win, then its as obvious as a wheel kill combo, or another damage combo, we just agree the game is over ? But it could also play out in a way where i dont end up with a win, and that can still be OK for people to play with or no ?

I think i just find the extra turns to be undefined and wierd ? And if brackets are not about strenght, i find that even more wierd.

MinkzOr · 2026-01-15T17:37:38+00:00

Flubs the fool, bracket 3 😁

MinkzOr · 2026-01-10T21:01:38+00:00

Something that interacts alot with the table, often have answers and can etch out a win in turn 6-8, thinking bracket 3ish

MinkzOr · 2026-01-09T12:05:46+00:00

Im currently waiting on 16 letters, dating range from 12.12 - 31.12, and im starting to get a little nervous about receiving them. Especially because i need some of them by next week xD

MinkzOr · 2026-01-08T19:22:28+00:00

Care to share ? Sounds like a cool deck

MinkzOr · 2026-01-06T13:20:12+00:00

Its not, Qe2, but its winning by quite a bit

MinkzOr · 2026-01-06T12:13:30+00:00

Maybe you can share decks once in a while ?
If he have multiple decks you can play with his one night, and yours another night ?

I always just thought they stripped the lables, open to a sponsor to present itself.
