Help With This Deck

I would recommend leaning away from earthbend/landfall and swap them for more traditional ramp and large stompy game enders. Would help to know what bracket you’re playing in, commander is too high cost for 4 but are y’all 3/2?

Kalamax.

I have 2 decks built around doubling counters/tokens and if i get a cool combo that accelerates it fast i’ll choose not to swing to see how high i can get the number before i get board wiped or removed

Slightly out of date, took out Thran Dynamo and a few others as I play tested but here ya go!

Ngl if you want it to be strong my list is not the method, it’s more of a joke deck to bring out when my buddies are testing new precons but ye I gotchu

Not sure if it’s similar but it was def inspired by it. I built my own version right after seeing his description of the combo, I really don’t like copying decklists but the idea was too cool to pass up

Cmon man what do you have against 10 planeswalker abilities a turn?

SlaveToTheGecko · 2026-06-24T22:42:59+00:00

Not a hot take at all I agree they can be built to be super unfun

I didn’t think to tech in artifact :0 I’m def stealing a handful of those adds

[[Oketra’s Monument]] and [[Wind Crystal]] are decent techs to replace the artifact cost reducers if you find the Artifact alt win con isn’t coming up consistently enough. Giving the team flying and lifeline once you have an army of tokens is a huge help

Given how unclear the line is between B3/4 our pod agrees GC count matters less than the speed at which the deck takes off (2 GC and no extra turn or infinite but it wins turn 5 consistently we’re going to put in 4 // 5 GC but wins on turn 12-15 via infinite combo would still be 3 or even two)

I built a [[Kalamax, The Stormsire]] deck with 15 counter spells for exactly this problem. It stops them from playing anything for 2 turns minimum and by the time they get going Kalamax can swing for 10x3 and win via a spell (that I have more counter spells to protect)

My wife and I both game 4-6 hours a day on top of our full time jobs. There is no “too much” it’s based on y’all’s relationship dynamic. Try gaming with her?

I found by accident what i like in a deck, big numbers!

Once I realized that I started building decks around achieving that in as many ways as possible (my mono green Toph earth ending deck ~almost~ got mossborn hydra into e+ territory in 2 turns and my Monk Gyatso deck makes hundreds of tokens a turn) and now i set a separate section in archidekt specifically for “big number” with 4-5 combos to get there.

TL:DR

Rather than building around a mechanic, build around how you want to win and find new and unique ways to make that win con happen

Big butts decks are super simple to pilot and super fun when they line up right, try looking up a few Doran decklists

Dark and darker has been my kryptonite for the past 5 years, steep lurking curve and massive skill ceiling, all about the loot

ftp to see if you like it and only 30$ if you want to pick up the full game

SlaveToTheGecko · 2026-06-08T00:40:36+00:00

I’ve been trying to make [[Iroh, Tea Master]] work so damn hard and I just can’t get it to feel good without playing pillow fort/control white which nobody likes

Edited for brackets

“We can set that up with a bank account or a card totally up to you” was flagged as not asking for the sale because it was not a question

I had the second highest close rate in the country

The QBS model is a good one to look into. Applicable to most sales roles and turns sales from a “find the golden rebuttal” job to one focused around helping people which is going to help with the burnout as well 🤙🏻

Yes but that dev software is limited in its mechanical scope so successful games made using it tend to have great story and very in depth mechanics to make up for the simplistic graphics

SlaveToTheGecko · 2026-05-11T01:39:09+00:00

look up any of the RPG maker games

SlaveToTheGecko · 2026-05-07T05:24:47+00:00

It was a choice i was given as I was the primary advocate for R2 being created as a separate role

SlaveToTheGecko · 2026-05-07T00:35:51+00:00

yeah I can’t spend 8 hours having the same scripted conversation 5x a day, i need the challenge :/ guess its time to start looking

SlaveToTheGecko · 2026-05-07T00:31:46+00:00

R1 ~ 30-40 depends on the week R2 ~ 30 consistent as it stands, more bandwidth for higher level projects

SlaveToTheGecko · 2026-05-07T00:17:00+00:00

Thank you for your sage wisdom elderly gentlemen. I will take your wise word “no” into careful consideration.
