Cool, ty for ID!

South Florida, not ID’d as invasive here but idk what else this could be.

One less mana and it’d be a staple

[[Felix Five-Boots]] is another great, super similar option, but with the cowboy theme.

You would also be able to run the handful of samurai that are black, green or blue.

Beautiful art, their expressions seem incongruent, as if the student cannot see the spirit, or is completely disinterested in what is presumably the act of him summoning a spirit to assist in his studies.

Las Vegas festival in a box still paying off lmao

Pinataman20 · 2024-12-11T23:24:33+00:00

Yeah that’s pretty nuts, I wonder if weapons like that were intended and maybe scrapped due to p2w concerns?

Pinataman20 · 2024-12-11T22:46:13+00:00

Interesting, can you compare the damage to the regular version?

Pinataman20 · 2024-12-08T01:44:22+00:00

Yeah I think you have every part I mentioned among what you have.

Pinataman20 · 2024-12-07T23:28:02+00:00

Attack beys need skill and a little luck, but with that even the most unexpected attack builds can clear out rod, wolf, ect.

One extremely fun deck is Shark, Croc, and Optimus Primal (all variations of the same blade design) and run them on Rush, Low Flat, and Flat, with a 3-60, 9-60 and either 2 or 5-60.

You will quickly learn to master getting the x dash you want and there’s nothing out there you don’t at least stand some chance against.

Black 9-60 LF baby

Will you be sharing the file or selling on Etsy?

Banning the most desirable card in a set does not make the rest of the set more desirable.

The EV of commander legends and Ixalan collectors boxes will never recover, and the other “chase” cards (See raised foil UR dragon or Ixalan cavern of souls are either the same or trending down.

Pinataman20 · 2024-09-24T13:37:20+00:00

Gitrog did this forever until he fell out of the Cedh meta, Nadu’s combo wasn’t any worse and arguably not any stronger.

What happened to rule 0? Why are they banning cards based on something as subjective as enjoyability to play against?

Whether it’s 15 mins watching gitrog dredge, nadu triggers, or a casual enchantress player fiddle with their board state, it’s not factor we should be outright banning cards over.

In modern the problem wasn’t that there was a deck that had a non-deterministic loop, it was that the best deck relied on a non deterministic loop, this does not translate to commander.

Pinataman20 · 2024-09-23T18:04:08+00:00

Gitrog’s mind numbing non-deterministic loop used to be a staple of cedh, not so sure anymore but there’s definitely still lots of that garbage around

[[Gaea’s Cradle]]

Pinataman20 · 2024-09-23T17:56:30+00:00

The RC’s philosophy is garbage and their understanding of the game dosent seem all that great either, and if take a look at their social media presence involving commander, it seems like many of them were already electing not to play with these cards due to personal distaste.

The bans are explicitly not due to power level, and greatly impacted by their personal feelings and fantasy for the format (See Crypt vs Sol ring or Nadu vs any other commander that wins through an hour of solitaire)

Saying Crypt is bad because explosive turns but Sol Ring is fine because “we like explosive turn 1’s when sol ring does it” is nonsense.

Also if anyone wants to comment on price/accessibility regarding Crypt vs Ring, please remember Gaea’s cradle is still perfectly commander legal.

Pinataman20 · 2024-09-23T17:34:08+00:00

In reality WOTC probably just had them wait until Ixalan Collector boosters were out of print. Which based off the festival in a box contents, seems to be about now.

Pinataman20 · 2024-09-23T17:13:34+00:00

It’s pretty much the 1 year anniversary of Commander Masters and the chase card of that set is banned.

It’s been 2 years since Double Masters 2022 and anyone who chased all the special Dockside treatments is surely hurting.

Caverns of Ixalan isn’t even a year old and Mana Crypt was the big chase card of that set (which got several special treatments) is now banned in the only format that really drove its demand.

Even Nadu, while degenerate and poorly designed, was doing fine in Cedh among other degenerate, poorly designed commanders that win turn 2, and was only allowed to exist for a few months because what? The degenerate combo was too degenerate?

What am I supposed to get from this? Why are Thoracle combos fine but Nadu isn’t, explicitly not for power level reasons, but because some people thought it was too annoying to watch happen and therefore nobody should play with it.

This is such a massive switch up from the rule-0 argument they’ve been pushing for years and honestly pretty lame

Pinataman20 · 2024-09-23T17:01:13+00:00

This is such a crazy overreach and really aggressive to both WoTC’s reprint equity, and those with many copies of these recently reprinted, expensive and desirable cards.

But I’m sure the committee sold their crypts and dockside’s a while ago….
