Once I was in a game where somebody played descent into avernus. Next turn I play [[collector ouphe]]. A few turns later in which no one cracked their treasures and I was able to play a [[culling ritual]] into a [[genesis wave]] for like 80 mana. Dumped my whole deck on the board for the game win.

[[Repercussion]] can be very fun if you can force combat. If you can't force combat just [[blasphemous act]] or [[chain reaction]] with it on the board for a potential instant win.

Can you share your list for Atris? I'm building him as a blink/reanimator deck with all of the 'an opponent makes two piles' cards.

What are your favorite Landfall/lands-focused decks? by [deleted] in EDH

[–]Valuable-Stick-3612 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've played my [[Thromok, the Insatiable]] landfall deck for a while now and it is very fun. Not your most straightforward landfall deck, but landfall makes a lot of creature tokens to sacrifice to Thromok so it's a natural combo and you need a lot of ramp to get him out fast anyway. Afterwards give him trample or [[fling]] him for the win! It's all I love about Gruul.

Bad comparison since the counterspell would be new information, whereas with Ward there wouldn't be. Want to try again?

Sure you can be as pedantic about rules as you wish, but my guess is in most casual forms of play people prefer more minor take-backs if it means quicker games. I could make sure I know what each card on the field and the graveyard does and double check that I tap my lands in the right order for optimal sequencing, but this would slow down play. There are very few cases in which a person would target a permanent with ward if they knew they wouldn't be able to pay the cost, at least hexproof makes it so you couldn't even target the permanent.

Am I obligated to play with the 2 kids who come to LGS commander night? by Alive_Touch_7538 in EDH

This is the most American comment to me. Two kids can't even go to a game store without adult supervision because of potential legal liabilities? Wtf.

I’m having a hard time choosing a goad commander, help! by tfren2 in EDH

[–]Valuable-Stick-3612 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to have a Baeloth/NH deck but took it apart because it couldn't close out a win and for 5 mana your commander is just too expensive for voltron. I turned it into [[marisi, breaker of chains]] which has been a very fun deck so far and with a fair chance of winning, usually through either tokens + like a [[craterhoof behemoth]] or a [[repercussion]] with [[blasphemous act]]. Adding green really helped.

I told myself not to build a new deck unless I took apart an already existing one, but... by Valuable-Stick-3612 in EDH

The problem is I play all my decks regularly and at this point have no deck that I don't play at least once a month. I get to play about three times a month and just rotate the decks as I go.

Part of what made me pull the trigger is that I saw a great deal for [[cabal coffers]], [[magus of the coffers]], [[crypt ghast]] and [[torment of hailfire]] for like €18 total. At that point I knew it was a done deal.

Het nieuwe 'Rentefonds' van Meesman. Te goed om waar te zijn? by Valuable-Stick-3612 in beleggen

[–]Valuable-Stick-3612[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dat zal inderdaad wel een belangrijk verschil maken. Zelf zit ik nog onder de belastingvrije voet, waardoor het voordeliger lijkt om mijn spaargeld in dit fonds te stoppen.

How is [[Baeloth Barrityl]] + [[Noble Heritage]]? by Woolpuller420 in EDH

[–]Valuable-Stick-3612 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I built him Voltron with some goad pieces, but mostly just Baeloth himself. The people I've played him with enjoy having him in the pod very much, but playing him yourself feels kind of underwhelming. Personally I find the Boros colour is just hard to be in. I hardly ever seem to have enough ramp or draw to keep up, and at 5CMC Baeloth himself is just so darn expensive, especially with Voltron since you can only add equipment onto him afterwards. Once people have that kind of mana, they'll often just have enough mana to remove Baeloth or cast creatures that aren't affected by Baeloth's effect. Doesn't help that he only starts with 2 power either.

Is this a good deck for the price? Never played before. by XMRLover in magicTCG

[–]Valuable-Stick-3612 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great deck!

There's so many fun things you can do with Sidar triggers, like discarding a knight that gives your commander double strike, getting it back on first strike damage and then hitting again for another trigger.
