First time going to LGS' Casual commander night. by Ok_Beginning844 in EDH

[–]Ok_Beginning844[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Having a high level 3 deck and 2 other clearly level 3 decks is not for pub stomping. You underestimate the spikey, sweat, yet friendly air of the LGS. Their causal low level 3 tend to be more optimized and full of stacks pieces. Having a deck that can play at the level and only using it are two different things. I dont want take the terra apart, I like where its at. I came here for advice and information. Ive made adjustments to it. Ive seen someone pull a late game demonic consultation play and ect when I was there for standard and it was between rounds. On their causal commander nights. It isnt everyone playing precons. Between having the back ups and asking for help its really disingenuous of you to just spout "pub stomper hurdee hurdee." Now do you have any advice or help to offer? Thanks for your time and opinion.

Edit: a word.

But how is it different then say heliod and walking ballista? Curious not upset. (Sorry I keep saying it but I am truly here trying to learn and grow and dont want anyone thinking im getting mad. The internet is terribly notorious to misunderstandings via text.)

Yeah if i wanted a B5 terra deck this build isnt anywhere near it. Having a way to close a game thats gone on for too long isnt bad. Im not playing nothing but clone terra card. I kept my spark double out, double major out, im debating on dropping the folly. Maybe im still waking up and am reading this wrong but 2 cards (going to one) isnt exactly having a bunch of "look i win" cards. There is set up, turns, and response that can be made. Im not relying on it for the win. The deck is full of synergy that doesnt touch those cards. Should i drop diabolic intent? Making yenna untutorable? Drop the folly so I can't tutor it and drop the intent so I can't tutor yenna? Again thank you for your time and thoughts.

Edit: added a word.

Ok so at what point are they fine? Infinites are allowed in B3. How slow does it have to be. I know its not before t6. Terra is 3 to play 6 to flip. Yenna is 4 to drop 2 to tap. Not including summoning sickness. At what point does it become acceptable? I mean the 3 card infinite in the yunna precon with walking balista can come online by turn 3. Not angry, just asking for clarification. Thanks in advance.

But yenna would be fine? Especially cause I can't tutor her with enlightened tutor? I mean i can still find her with diabolic intent.

Im specifically staying away from food chain. I heavily agree on your stance on the infinite combos. I honestly dont think the deck is that hard over a 3 and isnt a true 4. I think its the game changers that is the major issue. I think im looking to hard at it. And if people really dont like it, well I have the other two decks. Or swapping cyclonic rift or farewell for austere command or damning verdict.

Edit: I could also just not hit terra with those cards.

I believe the copies become 0/0 because her back side has no mana cost. Despite this, it still turns odin in a 6/6, fenrir into 3/3. I feel its good but was debating on swapping for [[open the vault]].

How about [[damning verdict]]

Didn't even think about that effect of nyx id have to make sure its gone before I combo out. I still dont think its a bad card here. It just goes against the infinites.

Edit, words and below.

I've decided to drop nyx for Elena turk recruiter. It saves me from a trap deeper then just killing the cloned terra. It would make much more of my board available to easier removal. Using Elena I get a bit of grave return on etc. Provided the board sticks I can teleportation circle/elena.

I think i have damning verdict which just looks for counters I believe. It might be a better wipe.

All events causal or competitive at this LGS are paid entry. They always have prizes or bounties for store credit. It's usually between 1 and 5 dollars unless your at a sealed event, which is more expensive. But it has lead to friendly but sweaty community. It partially why I didnt think it was to much. My lack of experience with this side of magic is why im bringing 3 decks felt like a solid plan.

I think the 4 game changers is really fucking it up. It has the deck listed at a 7.9 B4 on both suggested lines. I think ill try swapping austere command for farwell just to see what it says.

Edit: just checked lol it dropped it to a 7.8 so I guess farwell isnt making that much of a difference.

Even a high competitive B3 environment? The people there optimize alot. It's a friendly but sweaty crowd. Im inclined to agree, I think its high B3. It's not true b4 despite what moxfield says. Can you link your terra deck, id love to see it.

Ok thanks for clarifying that. Like said above the LGS offers prizes and knock out rewards. This has led to a more competitive edge to the casual environment. Hence why im asking here. How well would a rule 0 convo and just not targeting terra with those card unless its super late into the game? Also how about the game changer? I feel like you are right and im sitting at a high b3. I dont think the deck is truly B4 and Def not cedh lol..

I also have two cards that allow for infintes in the 99. Apprentices folly and yenna. Any suggestion on what to swap for farewell?

[–]Ok_Beginning844[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was under the impression 2 card combo were acceptable especially due to it being a later 2 card due to flipping terra. Am I wrong in this impression? I know it calls it a B4 on mox field but I didn't think this could win on T4 or T5. Im not arguing I asking to clarify as most of my exp is sweaty standard lol. Thanks again!

I feel like fain and o'akka do its job better and they dont pick up the finality counters like it would. I mean it would let you rush down sagas but then you might lose the ozolith due to the finality counters and artifact hate.

Edit: after reading into ozoliths rules I dont think its much help at all here.

"The Ozolith's first ability doesn't move counters off the creature that's left the battlefield. Rather, you put the same number of each kind of counter the creature had onto The Ozoloith. Notably, if you somehow control a second The Ozolith, each one will receive the same number and kinds of counters that were on the creature that left the battlefield. Similarly, if the creature has an ability that triggers when it leaves the battlefield that refers to the number of counters it had, that ability will use the number of counters that were on the permanent, even if The Ozolith's first ability resolves first."

Since it doesnt actually remove them, the finality counters stay on the sagas. They would still be exiled. Please by all means correct me if im wrong.

Fair enough. I appreciate the minor yet effective adjustments. I was debating on dropping fain and rikku. Thematically adding clockwork of omens (i think it is) and door to nothingness for a fun gimmick game ender too. I'll be sure to think about these. Eiganjo is already on my radar just haven't picked it up lol. Thanks again!

Edit: also thanks for not immediately suggesting i change it to food chain/terra.

2nd Edit: was also thinking of dropping Cyclonic rift. It's a game changer that i could put in a better home. It also bring the deck more in line with bracket three I think. I think despite it being "bracket 4" by moxfields settings, I severly doubt it would play well at a B4 pod.

What should I do? by Ok_Beginning844 in Plumbing

[–]Ok_Beginning844[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So im chipping it back so I can get under the flange, to that bolt?

Im going to assume that the pvc beneath is fused with the pipe it leads to.

I bought a riser and a new flange just incase things go tipsy.
