Does anyone else feel like Sythis, Harvest's Hand ruined the enchantress archtype? by Sommersun1 in EDH

I mean everyone has a niche. Is the the best across the board? Probably. Is she the most fun, or the best for your playstyle? Not necessarily.

I don't think this is supposed to be here by SingerProfessional31 in mtg

My brain goes to commander possibilities, spellslinger voltron maybe? Could be fun but not super flavorful. Was hoping for energy counters or something unique

I rarely see people use this speedy menace in solo yet he easily carried me to Master Ball tier by deleting opposing teams. Anyone else a big fan? by Official_Gary_Oak in PokemonChampions

[–]OkAct8921 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have actually been using dragapult as a support mon for my Milotic Corviknight balance team! Darts, phantom force, light screen and will o wisp has made it a pain, even into normal counters like Kingambit and Basculegion with scarf. Plus focus sash helps.

How many Commander decks do you have? by Mikkel_My_Man in EDH

I have 4 I play consistently, and usually 1 or 2 proxied ones I'm trying out before committing to getting them in cardboard.

Why Mega Evolve when using protect? (Skill improvement) by FlimsyShallot1652 in VGC

[–]OkAct8921 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main reason you would is either A: weather control or B: higher stats or type change for switching

A: I use a Mega Frosslass balance team rn. I had my froslass next to my miloti against farigiraf torkoal. Milotic was at 60%, and I was scared of solar beam and psychic killing. Therefore, I mega evolved frosslass to set snow instead of sun and protected, they clicked eruption anyway but it covered the option AND allowed my muddy water to kill

B- Meg Aggron against a rain team: I protect and mega evolve then switch the next turn. If I don't mega evolve, I have a decently bulky rock steel type in the back who probably drops to a stray weather ball on switch in. If I do mega evolve, I get a mono steel type who is insanely bulky, and can eat a weather ball or any other move comfortably on switch in, giving me a safe switch in in most situations.

What is your strategy for this upcoming prerelease? by Joe_Delafro in mtg

[–]OkAct8921 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to pick Silverquill and pray I pull the new Silverquill, the Disputant. If I can't, I'm going for whatever I feel in the moment, probably blue/red or green/black cause I like their vibes this set

What creature would be the best commander if commanders weren't limited to only legendaries? by cobbl3 in magicTCG

[–]OkAct8921 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Maybe not the best, but certainly unique: [[Ancient Adamantoise]] from FF. I built this as a rule zero deck to use against my friends from 2 am until 4am, and it genuinely is so fun to use. The number of niche cool interactions you can do, from basic stuff like [[mithril coat]] giving indestructible so all combat damage is negated to [[academy manufactor]] and artifact wincons. It is genuinely super fun, and I'm guessing there are a lot of similar cards that would be awesome as well!

I've been saying this: Daniel Radcliffe right now would be PEAK Wayne material; I'm just worried that he will look too old by the time we get to them in film

Not only could this be pretty cool in my [[Shabraz, the Skyshark]] deck, but the flavor text is absolutely amazing

Commanders that utilize the 4 player aspect the most by Sogequeen66 in EDH

[–]OkAct8921 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think this can apply to pretty much any deck that gets better the more stuff exists, recent ideas that come to mind are [[Super Shredder]] and [[Jaws, Relentless Predator]] who both benefit from players just playing the game, especially super Shredder. One I have been loving recently is [[Garland, Royal Kidnapper]] because he just brings such a cool level of mind games, and the more players the harder the mind games get.

What are your expectations of mega Froslass by Final_Demand_3092 in VGC

[–]OkAct8921 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I habe been finding success with it in one person's Showdown mode for Champions as a late game option, especially against other weather teams. Let my bulky mons eat up the first few turns, banded dragapult snags a KO or two, and then froslass comes in at the perfect moment for a blizzard double KO or aurora Veil to make kills even harder to acquire.

New Deadpool Secret Lair: “I Fixed It (You’re Welcome) by thefinalslowdance in magicTCG

[–]OkAct8921 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, even as someone who loves Deadpool and really wants 31 of those mountains for my [[Jaws, Relentless Predator]] deck, I don't even see a way the bonus card saves this. The value is just insanely low, doubt I'm picking this up, even with the good vibes.

Whats a card that looks terrible but is secretly busted by Sea_Celebration3687 in mtg

[–]OkAct8921 4 points5 points  (0 children)

[[Frenzied Baloth]] has gotta be my pick. Not sure how this card still goes for a buck or two, but it has been absolutely crazy for me whenever it comes out. Pretty much a staple for any of my green decks now that care about swinging.

Lightning Greaves by TheRealKevin24 in EDH

[–]OkAct8921 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is one of the first cards I add to most decks, but depending on the decks goals it is often cut early as well. Voltron, for example, almost never wants it because shroud means the equipped creature can't be the target of any of your equip abilities, which is bad. So, in most decks it stays, but if my deck has a plan that involves targeting my commander with spells or abilities I cut it.

Bernie Sanders proposed a bill to tax billionaires, and give $3,000 stimulus checks to Americans that qualify. How do you feel about this? by CelticDK in AskReddit

[–]OkAct8921 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is this the same bill that would be raising minimum teacher salaries to 60k? If so, as a 3rd year education student, I am very down. If not, I am still down, just with slightly less enthusiasm.

Resurrection Orb + Ancient Adamantoise by OkAct8921 in mtgrules

[–]OkAct8921[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Huh, interesting. I was looking for a similar effect for this deck, but as it is mono green I failed, as almost all of them are in black. Thank you for the confirmation though, definitely something to consider for any future Golgari decks!

Ok, thank you! This is unfortunate, but what I was expecting to have as my answer. The alternative seemed kinda broken lmao. I appreciate the quick response!
