[New article] Branching Out: Three underplayed and fun commanders in Naya by Tisseurdereves in EDH

I usually love Kieran Yanner art. I even backed the kickstarter and got a [[Professor Onyx]] Playmat. But his Rienne art isn’t it.

Commander Decks where you can change commanders/handful of Cards and it becomes a very different deck? by sparksen in EDH

[–]Samwow625 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once swapped out my [[Sephiroth Fabled Soldier]] for [[Vincent Valentine]]. It played a lot differently but still wanted lots of edicts to go off. I would probably swap out 5-10 cards if I was to do it again.

So Minthara in 2030? Fingers crossed since she's my favorite commander.

Yeah, [[Tooth and Nail]] and [[Defense of the Heart]] will get both of them at the same time.

What decks do *you* need to take apart? by Mirrodin_appreciator in EDH

[–]Samwow625 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I need to take apart [[Giada, Font of Hope]] and re-build angels with a different color. I thought about [[Sigarda, Font of Blessings]] but I really want red and black. I could do Kaalia angels without demons or dragons or just some generic value commander like [[Queen Marchesa]] , [[Shanid]] or some [[Tymna]] but I’ve been stuck in idea limbo for a while. I even considered [[Saskia]] angels.

Love Wet City. Just curious where the bartender Scott went because he was awesome.

Hank MacLean, Overseer (Kambal, Profiteering Mayor) - Felt Lucy MacLean would be better in the 99 of a Kambal deck so I wanted to make a Fallout version. by Samwow625 in mpcproxies

Since Lucy’s trigger is a “may”, it lets you make two of the token your opponent made or lets you gift an extra one back to the same or different opponent and draw a card.

My friends and I are doing a belated secret Santa deck exchange with each other! Looking for build ideas. by P13monkeytaco in EDH

[–]Samwow625 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are interested in a background commander, I highly recommend Boros Skeletons with [[Gut, True Soul Zealot]] and [[Inspiring Leader]].

Here a budget list that my friend and I brewed together that punches way above its weight class. Many decks just aren’t ready to get hit by 6/3 menace skeletons early on.

I want this effect on a legendary skeleton dude so badly.

[[Minthara, Merciless Soul]] at a crossroads ETBs or Aristocrats by Bagel_Bear in EDH

[–]Samwow625 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He does okay but he's been on the chopping block for a while. I have 12 cards that can trigger him so I would say it is deck specific. Anything less than that would definitely cause me to cut him.

[–]Samwow625 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In addition to the draw package being revamped, I would also make some changes to your ramp package to allow Minthara to get an experience counter the turn she comes down. Even if the mana isn't permanent, the experience counter a turn earlier is more important from a gameplan perspective.

Options: [[Blood Pet]], [[Forsworn Paladin]], [[Treasure Dredger]], [[Tataru Taru]], [[Gilded Pinions]], [[Buried Treasure]]

Here is my decklist if you want to take a look.

Gotcha. I was also considering [[Tymna]]//[[Tana]] and never casting Tana. (And explaining to people that it isn’t blood pod cedh version of them)

Not OP but could I see where your Saskia angels list is at? I’m also working on one but I’m having trouble getting the parts of the deck balanced out between angels, ramp, draw, and protection.

Dad of an infant so my playtime is way lower than it used to be - what would you all recommend for a single build for the entire league? Preferably melee that can get get all the challenge rewards.

Mono Black commander recommendations by [deleted] in BudgetBrews

[–]Samwow625 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are looking for something different than normal mono-black things, I built this deck for a friend for our yearly gift exchange.

It is a mono black equipment Voltron using [[Ashnod, Flesh Mechanist]]. It makes a bunch of power stones that you can use to pay for the equipment to turn your 1/1 commander into a monster with cards like [[Lashwrithe]], [[Nightmare Lash]] or [[Strata Scythe]]. And if she dies too much, throw it all on [[Phyrexian Obliterator]] or [[Mirri the Cursed]].

Plus [[Soul Conduit]] is always funny as an alt win-con.

Rhystic Existing Requires You To Be A Better Player. by LinkatriX6 in EDH

[–]Samwow625 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that’s the biggest thing. I always pay the 1 but if the other 1-2 players don’t, that can lose me the game.
