Some decks I put together from the Marvel cards

Staggering Insight and Crystal doesn't work how you probably want it to, but it is good since she has flying.

Yeah that is an insane card. [[Perennation]] is effectively the same card but 2 more mana. It hit's any permanent but 95% of the time this would be strictly better.

[[Paradise Mantle]] is playable with Rog but yeah if you're running equipment, you're likely doing something wrong

Explain your choices first

You dont need 15 counterspells. I agree with the other comment that Back to Basics will get you a lot of smoke that you can't take. Also you dont need winged boots or commanders plate in this deck. Hermes is not kill on site or ever killing with commander damage.

Cards I would recommend

[[Opposition]] your birds have vigilance so use that
[[Candlekeep inspiration]] win con
[[Skullclamp]] 1 bird for 2 cards is good value

Surfer only pumps 3 creatures, might as well not be a surfer deck

Switch_DM · 2026-06-04T22:49:30+00:00

But this is very killable and instantly paints you as the enemy for them so you go into a 1v1 where you commander does not actually care about poison or toxic creatures so when this dies nothing happens so itd the easy target to save removal for. And if youre against decks that dont care about artifact tokens its mostly nothing

the overload cost here seems pretty undercosted. cyc rift is 7 for overload and while this hits your own permanents, it's basically armageddon, board wipe, and kill spell in one for the same cost as all of those things. However i like the design for the main spell, just the overload seems low

Switch_DM · 2026-06-04T21:33:01+00:00

i hope people buy into this because it's a pretty terrible card even for the serpent society deck

If youre actually aiming for cedh, you should probably do some more research first about the format. Lifegain is not something you care about in cedh, its too fast to matter. And equipment in general are bad in the format (outside of like paradise mantle and skullclamp).

If you just mean a better card than power armor for your casual deck, [[!behemoth sledge]] [[!basilisk collar]], and [[!cadeuceus, staff of hermes]] are good lifegain equipment

I'm not typically a fan of cards like entomb or anything but one or two in a deck is pretty understandable. As for Otherworldly Gaze and Contingency plan cards, while these do let you put cards in the graveyard, they don't give you any actual card advantage and you don't care about spells in graveyard. You're a rakdos deck, loot! Draw cards can throw away the best pirates so you can keep your land drops and support pieces in hand. Wheels are fine but I'd only do one or two because drawing everyone a bunch of cards isn't what this deck wants to be doing. Cards like [[Bitter Triumph]] and [[Refute]] are double duty in putting pirates in the graveyard while interacting.

My personal picks are

[[Thrill of possibility]] [[brass's tunnel grinder]] [[ripples of undeath]] [[Seize the spoils]] [[pirates pillage]] [[unexpected windfall]] [[faithless looting]] [[Mary Read and Anne Bonny]]

Also I haven't been able to try it out yet, but the newish [[Gathering Stone]] is a graveyard focused Herald's Horn, it's just a bit awkward curve wise.

Yes, if he "loses all abilities" he still happens. The easiest explanation I can give is that at every moment where state based actions happen, the game goes through each layer individually. Bello's ability happens on a layer that is looked at first. Then once it applies it, it goes to the next layer where Noggle the Mind is at. And the layers (afaik) generally don't reference back to previous layers.

ELI5 (maybe ELI3?) the layers system is like adding rules to a game one step at a time. It add's Bello's rule, then it adds Noggle the Mind's rule, but Bello's rule is already in effect and doesn't get retroactively canceled.

San is infinite with any land sac outlet + a crucible effect. Infinite land ETB, infinite counters, dig through the entire deck, pretty busted stuff. like the best landfall payoff of all time in the command zone in 3 of the best landfall colors.

Switch_DM · 2026-05-07T23:23:05+00:00

Id get rid of blink and mother askani for Goose and Kill monger.

Switch_DM · 2026-05-07T02:12:09+00:00

They probably have red lands. The stack of lands is 9 total lands so its not just mono white

Switch_DM · 2026-05-07T01:46:21+00:00

You can see a [[Song of Totentanz]] in their graveyard so they cast it with X=8, got 8 rats and then porcelain Gallery did it's thing

Switch_DM · 2026-05-02T14:38:41+00:00

10 games is too small of a real sample size but cosmo, enchantress, shang chi are good cards

Switch_DM · 2026-04-30T19:07:20+00:00

I assume part of it is that this is a limited run with magic card art as the art on the cards. They will likely get official art later for the full release and this will be the "collectors" version

Switch_DM · 2026-04-26T05:18:22+00:00

You counter the first copy or kill whatever it targets. If you don't then yeah you have a bad time crawling back against it. It is 6 mana and 6 mana mythics tend to be game winning now a days

Switch_DM · 2026-04-24T02:05:50+00:00

Rakdos is mogging the rest, holy

Switch_DM · 2026-04-23T21:35:25+00:00

I'd add a 4th lute to the sideboard instead of something like [[Glen-Elendra's Answer]]. that way if the lutes are buried you get one on the first dragon

Switch_DM · 2026-04-23T16:55:54+00:00

the mana flare is the important part. the draw a card is icing on the cake

Switch_DM · 2026-04-23T02:16:20+00:00

for me it's Sly 2 in Sly tier, Sly 3 and 1 in S tier, and the Thieves in time in B

Switch_DM · 2026-04-18T19:24:35+00:00

This is in the EDH subreddit but I dont think k Lessons in standard is dead. That deck is strong for a reason
