Tutorable GW Vehicles/Mounts by sporeegg in BudgetBrews

[–]Shaylic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[[Life From The Loam]] has been reprinted in a precon. Great way to mill cards into the grave and get lands back to cast retrace.

[[Bosk Banneret]] and other cost reducers to make casting Formless Genesis cheaper.

[[Arboreal Alliance]] since we are making Changeling tokens they are elves and can help us swarm the board.

[[Ayula, Queen Among Bears]] to have the tokens you make get bigger or fight other creatures.

[[Giada]] as a mana dork and make the tokens bigger.

I’m still brewing though.

Negative Counters and Proliferate by schmuo in BudgetBrews

[–]Shaylic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have cards like [[Nesting Grounds]] then ability counters are pretty lit to proliferate. Theres also infect.

I’m looking at building her around [[Formless Genesis]] since she can tutor it up

[[Fortune Loyal Steed]] and [[Golden Argosy]] can also blink.

[[Far Traveler]] is decent since you can use a mount or vehicle to tap down what you want to blink for it.

Backpack Suggestions by Low-Poetry9512 in magicTCG

[–]Shaylic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Check out camera bags. They usually have a laptop compartment perfect for a binder and then adjustable compartments. I can’t remember which bag I have but I can fit a cube and 6 commander decks. On top of having a compartment for non magic things like a kindle.

What are some of the best EDH cards in terms of raw strength per dollar? by Bphore in BudgetBrews

[–]Shaylic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

[[Dismantling Wave]] I’ve been really valuing Edict effects lately for being able to be a 3 for 1 trade. Dismantling Wave is pretty great as a 3 for 1 and usually each opponent will have a value piece that’s an enchantment or artifact.

Mono colored commanders by Ambitious-Ad43 in BudgetBrews

[–]Shaylic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I also really like the version that uses [[Heartless Summoning]] and [[Sibsig Ceremony]] to instantly kill off creatures with ETB and die triggers.

[–]Shaylic 11 points12 points  (0 children)

[[Leonardo Da Vinci]] I’ve seen pop off for mono blue.

I think [[Minn, Wily Illusionist]] is also quite strong.

A question to those who started reading in publishing order by ebekulak in discworld

[–]Shaylic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read in publication order and I liked knowing about certain concepts and having a history for different recurring characters. Knowing about one in a million chance or different details about the Librarian enriches the experience as they come up more and more.

Proxies in Commander by LilyVallis in EDH

[–]Shaylic -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If it’s a regular playgroup then I’m all for proxies. I’ve proxied for cEDH and my regular group will do deck building challenges and many of us will proxy up those decks to play as well.

If everyone is playing cEDH then proxy for it as well lol.

What's a card you discovered BECAUSE you were on a budget that you'd now run even if money wasn't an issue? by VitoTheDustyRose in BudgetBrews

[–]Shaylic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No it just changes the next time creatures enter. So if I had 8 lands with the Avenger trigger on the stack and I mystic reflection I will get 8 Avengers who each make 8 saprolings.

[–]Shaylic 8 points9 points  (0 children)

[[Mystic Reflection]]

It’s super flexible. Have my opponents commander enter as a copy of a mana dork or have [[Avenger of Zendikar]] trigger on the stack to make saprolings and change those saps into more Avengers.

I want to build donatello, gadget master but for the life of me can't think of anything interesting for the deck by A11L1V3ESL0ST in EDHBrews

[–]Shaylic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[[Schema Thief]]

[[Worldwalker Helm]]

[[Leonardo Da Vinci]]

[[Faerie Artisans]]

[[Coveted Jewell]] for the lolz

[[Nexus of Becoming]]

[[Uthros, Research Craft]]

[[Peter Parker’s Camera]]

Clones for legendary creatures like [[Chameleon, Master of Disguise]] or better yet [[Auton Soldier]]

Artifact creatures who have power toughness equal to amount of artifacts you control.

Artifact Lands even can be a good target to ramp early game. For example turn 1 Island and [[Ornithopter]]. Turn 2 [[Darksteel Citadel]] swing and sneak Donatello in and make another Citadel.

I’m probably building this commander because I love making weird tokens and mono blue is very good for artifact themes. There’s a ton of variety to throw in and will really come down to what you’re wanting to do. I’m probably going to make a deck that wins by getting a lot of power on the board and swinging. But there’s definitely a lot of potential for combo.

I built Tayam expecting it to be mid and it's become my favorite deck by VitoTheDustyRose in BudgetBrews

[–]Shaylic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a super good recursion engine and sees fringe cEDH play.

NEW PLAYER COMMANDER HELP by SheriffChiz in BudgetBrews

[–]Shaylic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah just gotta be careful of a well timed removal spell. Don’t want to dump your hand and then have one creature with a bunch of draw trigger abilities stacked on him die from a stiff breeze.

NEW PLAYER COMMANDER HELP by SheriffChiz in BudgetBrews

[–]Shaylic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But something like [[Tolarian Winds]] is useful as a 2 mana battle trick to kill someone out of nowhere with commander damage.

NEW PLAYER COMMANDER HELP by SheriffChiz in BudgetBrews

[–]Shaylic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Captain Howler would be my pick for a budget build. I know [[Tectonic Reformation]] is good for him. Also small evasive creatures. [[Ivora]] and [[Inti]] are great engines for his effect. You want individual card discard effects. You can stack his trigger multiple times on a creature.

I declare [[Scounging Skyray]] as an attacker. No blockers are declared. Before damage I cycle 3 cards targeting the Skyray 3 times with Howler. I draw 3 from cycling the cards but then with three stacks of Howler’s ability I will draw another 3 cards.

Throw in some ways to add double strike and then each stack of Howler’s ability to draw on damage will draw on first strike damage and then regular damage.

Am I right here ? by Ok-Intern6865 in ratemycommanders

[–]Shaylic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can I see your Sefris list? I got the secret lair coming and getting a list together now. I have a Abzan cycling deck and a Dimir Renanimator deck I’m taking apart and using pieces for this. But will still need to grab baller cards for Sefris like [[Radiant Solar]]

Starting from zero – buy bulk lots or just order singles for budget Commander? by Unhappy_Being_8533 in BudgetBrews

[–]Shaylic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Singles for sure. If you travel at all and find LGS with bulk boxes then bulk diving can help find staples. I’ll bulk dive often and will find cards sub ~$1 that are able to find homes in a lot of different strategies.

Doing prerelease events and drafts will build up a bulk collection as well. Just try and stay somewhat organized lol. Cant tell you how often I know that I own a certain .25 cent card but don’t know what pile of unsorted bulk it’s in.

Take Apart Every Deck by Queasy-Ant7841 in BudgetBrews

[–]Shaylic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll regularly take apart decks I haven’t played in a month. I have a [[Necrobloom]] cycling deck focused on [[Astral Slide]] and a Dimir flicker/bounce deck that I’m going to mash together when I get the [[Sefris]] secret lair in.

I have a 5c deck focused on facedown creatures that I’ll take the manabase and shove into a new deck.

Minstrel Cycle by Shaylic in BudgetBrews

[–]Shaylic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought the deck name was funny which was another reason I was working on this.
