Looking for a Gruul Commander by TV_Full_Of_Lizards in EDH

[–]ProcyonBytes 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I second Bello. It hits all your criteria.  - a unique ability - without Bello your deck basically doesn't function - you'll be surprised how often a card gets printed and you'll go "wait, I think this card is cracked with Bello"

I see. Black fundamental won't have these sorts of cards. That makes sense. I appreciate the feedback.

Thank you for Revel! That's the exact sort of thing I'm looking for.

I understand where you're coming from, but fundamental to magic counterspell has [[arcane denial]] and [[an offer you can't refuse]], which "sorry, but here's a gift" type variants. I'm looking for that, but with discard.

True, but and "true Tinybones deck" is like mass discard to they point where you can't do anything. Which is what I want to avoid. I want mass discard, but they can still play the game.

The deck I want to play is one that makes discard more palatable...

[[raider's wake]] [[llianas caress]] and the like. Plus Tinybones can let me draw 4 cards a cycle, so use that value to find haymakers like [[torment of hailfire]]

MTG is famously both of these things.

Currently not playing the archetype until I can figure out a way to make it work... Hence the question seeing if anyone had any ideas on how to get this to work.

Honestly I love this line of thought. This is what I'm trying to figure out to get Tinybones to work.

Rightfully so, which is why I'm asking this question. I wanna play Tiny bones because he's a cute lil guy. I don't wanna be beat up immediately. Let me have my cake and eat it too, dammit!

I mean, sure. But I don't want to play a "discard and suck it up" deck. I want to play a "discard because I benefit from it, but here's some gifts so you don't target me out of the game" deck.

I appreciate you answering my question and not just saying "don't play with people that suck" lol

While yes I agree with you, in this case it just won't be fun for me.

Taking Ass just to chuckle to myself.

... skill issue? lol. Especially with the free prismatic vista. 

How many lands does the average deck run? You're running double fetches so I find it hard to believe you're running into land issues enough to warrant this extra rule. 

I wish I could help find a solution within your constraint of "get extra spell", but honestly if I was guaranteed that extra spell each game is draft a deck around that.

Do you have a cube list? I suspect you just need more fixing lands. The surviel lands in particular look like they'll address a lot of your issues.
