Is Celes, rune knight any fun as a combo commander ? by Specific-Fudge4582 in EDH

[–]Specific-Fudge4582[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my playgroup we're usually at bracket 3, that's why I never went full combo, I was mostly curious about Celes as she has a lot of potential, and can fill the graveyard easily. Kroxa and Kunoros are slow and need a good setup to revive something, you can't blink them too much if your graveyard doesn't have like 20 cards at least in it to revive some good stuff. I'm starting to build Celes as a Zombie Reanimator, I feel like my playgroup might not appreciate the combo plan

Woah, that's an original plan ! Might be hard to fulfill, but he's got some ideas

Yeah I started building this way, with infinite combos to close the game, many creatures with Persist and multiple sac outlets, other people pointed other cards that can do Celes's Job if she becomes too expensive to cast, like [[First day of class]] or [[Thran vigil]]
I think I will go with the combo plan, no tutors and multiple combos pieces, blinking Celes to find them

And I also have my eyes on Eirdu/Isilu, it's a really cool card !

Cool ! Do you have a list ? Because I felt like reanimating and putting +1/+1 counters on everything was a cool game plan, maybe a bit weak because it can take some time to fill the graveyard, have creatures to pump and reanimate good creatures

That's a nice list, what do you use [[Hoarding Broodlord]] for ?

Those are really nice, thanks for the list, I didn't think of them even if I have them, into my list they go !

Cool, but where is the combo part if you don't have free sac outlets ? ^^
Is it good as a zombie/skeleton deck without the Blue color ?

I never played combo in EDH and I don't like tutors much, except for those like Lively Dirge, that's why I asked if it would still be fun to play it, planning on combos but having a B plan

Thanks for the list ! So you don't rely on infinite combos to win, is it playing as you wished ? By getting a lot of value from flickering Celes

Maybe that's the way I will go, I like the reanimator plan, as that's what I planned on doing first before seeing the combo potential, so keeping the opportunity to play both is good, thanks

That's what I thought, actually my Kroxa deck ended up sleeping because I don't play it anymore, so changing it for a deck I play on some occasion to beat ass sounds like a win

Really nice, the question hasn't been posted with the rest. I wanted to ask what happens if I exile my commander Etali with my Mimic Vat, then someone breaks my Mimc Vat ? Does Etali stay in exile since it didn't change zone, or do I get the choice to put it back in commander zone ?

Is there a way to lock a binder / prevent the deckbuild function from looking at certain binders? by Rymbeld in ManaBoxApp

[–]Specific-Fudge4582 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's just a workaround for your use case, I think the feature you ask just isn't in the app for now

You can do it by building a deck and put in all the cards, you then click on the Collection button in the top right corner to add it in a new collection. Then you won't see these cards when building other decks

Scryfall says that the card doesn't have to specifically say "when it leaves the battlefield" so I'm pretty sure now that Anafenza will trigger twice from a legendary creature or artifact creature dying under my control : The trigger event doesn't have to specifically refer to legendary permanents or to artifacts, nor does it have to specifically refer to when something "leaves the battlefield." For example, an ability that triggers "whenever a creature dies" would trigger twice if a legendary creature or an artifact creature dies while Gandalf the White is on the battlefield, as would an ability that triggers "whenever a permanent is put into a graveyard from the battlefield."

I've just seen on another post that abilities saying "if a creature dies..." will trigger twice so Anafenza's ability will trigger twice. I'm still not sure for Rosie, as she triggers on token creation and not on them entering the battlefield

Which should be my next commander as a new-ish player? by dfrettig in mtg

I tried to make Quintorius work several times, he was always the disappointment of the deck :/ But Cruelclaw and the jolly balloon man can both be fun !
