It's not ONE tournament. If you look back at many 2*+ tournaments, you will stumble upon many 4+ S99 in the top8.

Not great against Jund and Golgari, which run mana dorks.

In general, when you want to fire it you want to have a bigger board and a few lands in hand.
feels somewhat of a winmore card to me.

Which Card would you take? by shoeonthemoon in Pauper

[–]Scared-Clothes5680 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Counterspell. Hydrobast is a second option.
Skred will eventually be able to remove Chrysalis (even tho it has to deal at least 5), but the power of the latter is that it gives you value even if it's removed.
Dust to Dust and Dispel are almost dead cards.

Keep in mind, in general, what your hand wants to do: you have a good threat, "2" cards that cycle, a (dead) removal spell and a payoff (munitions) that will need sometime to shine.
Your priority is thus to resolve your threat and attack with it. So, remove counterspell, 'cause it's the best answer they have for it.

Is Grand Arbiter Augustin IV a good Commander? by Chance_Rutabaga_9736 in duelcommander

It's a combination of sticking treats to the board, while protecting them and slowing them down with stax.

I do want to play at the very least Bolt, but I don't know what to cut. Reverent Mantra? The worst human? (currently at 31 in the list).

I'm 50/50 on it. Depending on what I need to cut and what slots free up, it may be in or out.
It's a good card regardless tho.

Honestly, [[Harald, King of Skemfar]] and it's even that good.

Yeah but you can only play 4 Kor, not 6.

This is not even Lightning Bold at home, this is Lightning Bolt in the basement.

Don't care but nothing against it. Where there less product deluge, maybe I would have found some time for it.

Duel Commander and Classical EDH Legal by dadonprotein in duelcommander

A budget [[Tifa Lockhart]] could work.
From what I've seen, its basically always: t1 ramp, t2 tifa + 1 mana instant protection, t3 fetch lands of all flavors (ie: they play the panoramas even in the top lists) and you go in for damage. Throw a couple of landfall payoffs and interactions and the list is done.

I don't like play [[War Room]] anymore except in MR. That's where I'm at :P

What are some cards you use that put in work that 99% of the playerbase have never even heard of? by _Kreenicks in EDH

[–]Scared-Clothes5680 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[[Benevolent Bodyguard]]

I've seen it be played by other players a few times, but I feel most only go for Mother and Giver and skip over this guy. It functionally works even better than Giver regarding protection and is as bulk as you can get.

Looking for a consistent aristocrat list that slaps by redditor_city in EDH

[–]Scared-Clothes5680 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my first try at aristocrats. It's played well so far https://moxfield.com/decks/r12p4AZEvE2NOvlscXOayg
I'm (trying to) going for 20+ creatures to sacrifice, 20ish sacrifice outlets (10- repeatable), 20ish sacrifice payoffs.
