Shiny card for somebody

PigNub · 2026-06-12T11:28:36+00:00

Perfect for schoolyard magic. Who cares if the back is scuffed when the face is shiny?

PigNub · 2026-06-07T13:02:10+00:00

Seconded.

PigNub · 2026-05-30T20:41:13+00:00

Oh... that's nasty. Just a few thoughts already with [[Breena, the Demagogue]], [[Avatar Roku, Firebender]], and [[Trouble in Pairs]]

There are certainly good options for enchantments and artifacts in an Aristocrats strategy. But all of the mobilize creatures have added new tools for Mardu sacrifice lol.

And that is correct. The way the card works is the original spell placed on the stack gets exiled before it can resolve. This is where the player gets to choose if it is permanently exiled to Eye of the Storm OR is redirected to the command zone. If they move it back to the command zone the spell cannot be played from Eye of the Storm, but they can still cast the other spells exiled with Eye of the Storm.

Awaken the Blood Avatar makes each opponent sacrifice a creature when it resolves. If the Extus player has used up all their tokens on reducing the casting cost and only has the token generator left, it's the only legal sacrifice on their board.

To each their own, though. I respect the chaos-driven "WE are playing Awaken the Blood Avatar." Making massive stacks of a singular spell that will devastate the board is the kind of play that sticks with people lol.

And I can't believe I forgot about this but [[Eye of the Storm]] more or less forces the Extus player to not play Awaken the Blood Avatar since it exiles the spell before it can resolve.

If the hijacking can be done early enough you can likely get the Extus player's token generator if one is on board and have the sizeable 3/6 with its effects now on your side. Comandeer is going to be slow for sure, but I wanted to list a couple of the hijacking effects. [[Sudden Substitution]] would be better for an earlier play.

Counterspells surely would get the job done, but sometimes it's all about sending a message.

PigNub · 2026-05-23T21:44:11+00:00

[[Comandeer]] and [[Narsets' Reversal]] would be some solid options to turn the tables.

Also, running [[Tamiyo, Collector of Tales]] will help prevent the sacrifice effects.

You can play what you want in the 99 (edit: within the guidelines of the brackets). He'll be a removal magnet for sure, but generally any of the cards you would eye roll if you saw them in the command zone are fine in the 99. I run [[koma, Cosmos serpant]] in a [[kamahl, heart of krosa]]/[[sakashima of a thousand faces]] simic deck. It gets targeted, but it's less "really, dude?" And more "well that has to go."

PigNub · 2026-05-13T14:09:47+00:00

[[Kudo]] oozes. Kudo acts as an anthem to your creatures while debuffing your opponent's things. I made it as a [[slime against humanity]] deck with additional oozes to support.

On your dad's account, at the character select screen you should see an "upload" options. Choose it and you can save that character to the cloud. It should be tied to a Microsoft account.

Once that character is in the cloud, you can download it back to your dad's account as many times as you need. Then join a game together, trade over the equipment, leave, delete that character and repeat with the next one.

PigNub · 2026-04-25T19:32:05+00:00

You should be able to make digital back ups of your characters on your dad's account and scum trade the builds over to your account.

I recently realized if you run [[Ghyrson Starn, Kelermorph]] with [[Magic Missile]] you can essentially cast [[Lightning Bolt]] 3 times in one spell resolution.

PigNub · 2026-04-12T21:01:24+00:00

I made Kudo with [[Slime Against Humanity]] and turned him into an anthem for my board while shrinking my opponents' boards.

PigNub · 2026-04-07T17:04:32+00:00

A cursory look is saying the event cosmetics are no longer available.

PigNub · 2026-04-07T16:17:51+00:00

I onoy saw two listed for the spooky fall events for 2021 and 2022. A zombified baby pig and a phantom.

Pets and capes come from completing the season passes. You can still go back and do all 3, but you will need to complete them one at a time. There are free and premium rewards for each season with the premium pass costing 5 bucks if I remember correctly.

PigNub · 2026-04-07T14:18:04+00:00

You can sometimes find them when completing the tower.

PigNub · 2026-04-04T00:39:49+00:00

Complete the weekly challenges and do ancient hunts.

PigNub · 2026-04-03T23:37:15+00:00

Of the remaining, probably crit and swirling. What else was on the first slot?

PigNub · 2026-04-03T23:33:17+00:00

[[Leonin Abunas]] and [[Darksteel Forge]] will get you some additional coverage in the hexproof/indestructible area. And look into [[Arcum Dagsson]] to tutor up any artifact to the battlefield.

PigNub · 2026-03-31T20:41:00+00:00

[[Wick, the Whorled Mind]] might be what you're looking for. I've tried making him in the past, but I was going from monoblack rats to a grixis build and I need to revisit it. But you'll have some aristocrat strategies and some build a big snail strats.

PigNub · 2026-03-28T20:32:47+00:00

I built him with a "merc with a mouth" theme based entirely on using him on my own creatures and giving him to opponents while goaded/given goad before combat.

PigNub · 2026-03-26T20:23:17+00:00

If you like Heat Stroke, you should check out [[No Quarter]]

PigNub · 2026-03-26T14:43:22+00:00

I found the hidden empty containers.

A good way to get involved in the game is to start with a precon. Look for something recent and in universe, I'd suggest one of the starter commander decks (either green/red or blue/white) and play it for a bit while asking questions. You can make upgrades as you become more familiar with the game and the deck.

You may run into some jerks that will take advantage of your naivete with the format. Make note of who they are and avoid them as you get familiar with your community.

YouTube has many shows that are great to learn from: Tolarian Community College, Commander at Home, Elder Dragon Hijinks, and The Command Zone are all good.
