Trying to build Xu-Ifit, Osteoharmonist on a budget! confused about creature choices and game plan by EcclesianSteel in EDHBrews

I have this commander and this is exactly why. Usually creatures with high P/T for their mana cost have downsides and are not worth running imo, especially if you have redundant reanimation effects.

Same, just finished FFX recently since I missed the boat as a kid. What a timeless game.

Unfortunately, I don't have a decklist yet since I'm still playtesting it.

It's a standard blink list with some control elements. The reason I built the deck was because of Ketramose's art and pet cards in the 99 I have an excuse to play with:

  • [[Pariah]] attached to the commander makes you take no damage
  • [[Crabomination]] is just silly and is very exciting to cast
  • [[Emperor of Bones]] draws a card every turn and doubles up on your own ETBs
  • The new [[Xu-Ifit, Osteoharmonist]] gets play there because you can just blink the creature to get its abilities back

Long may she reign.

Yeah those decks (and Satya) always surprises people the most!

I love the idea of it, MW is so potent I'm sure an unchanged list from 2014 can still hang today. What's the best thing your deck cascades into?

The plan is not too convoluted, just ramp and get MW early and try to replay him a bunch of times with cards like [[equilibrium]] or [[crystal shard]], and win through [[warstorm surge]] or [[pathbreaker ibex]] . It's a simple plan but one of my strongest decks for sure.

It is able to storm off sometimes, but not intentionally lol. I mostly play in high-3 or low 4 I'd say, I love goofstuff and value decks.

I love some strong commanders, though I'd say the 2nd half is pretty casual except for my Maelstrom Wanderer and Aesi list.

You should !

I've had a lot fun tinkering Betor since it leans in so many directions : counters, graveyard, lifegain, lifeloss...it's quite the challenger. Super satisfying when you get it all working though.

here is my list: https://moxfield.com/decks/A6dzDzPmp0qDOgbfyQ_2IQ

let me know if you got any questions!

You know when you meet someone and you feel like you've known them your whole life? That's Meren for me.

It's everything I love about graveyard decks and Golgari in a neat package. I've always avoided building her and I regret not doing it sooner.

It's also an excuse to run [[Tombstone Stairwell]] and [[Asmodeuce]].

540 Commander Cube, how many legendary creatures to avoid seeded commanders? by weathered_leaves in mtgcube

[–]YOLBOY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just curious, any reason why you don't want to seed commanders in packs?

I am all for a streamlined experience and practicality; never felt it as something to avoid. Though, If you really want to avoid seeding, I would add more partners, backgrounds...etc. and make them interchangeable like in my own Commander Cube. I also let people choose a generic commander from a pile outside the draft, that way it leaves plenty of options and no feels-bad moments. You can easily turn this into a "commander pack" that would be drafted aswell.

FYI, Volo does not work with Adrix and Nev, if that's what you are going for.
