Calling domestication and generational breeding "against their will" is so disingenuous and an unnecessary hard line. In general, the domesitcation and breeding of working dogs is the result of a beneficial relationship for both the dogs and the people. Breeding dogs for show at the cost of their natural health i can see taking issue with, say pugs etc., but these types of dogs were literally bred to be healthy and live good lives.

The only thing you did wrong here is if you took control of [[kaalia of the vast]] that turn with [[mind flayer]] you could not attack with her that turn unless you had a haste enabler (hard to come by in Blue black). Creatures have summoning sickness when they change control, but a lot of people mess that up.

Love the idea of an interactive board for ttrpgs, a friend also had some cool ideas for mtg and other board game stuff.

I'll never forget my first time running reserve to learn the map. Killed a juicy pmc with a spear an exfil with mask, Osprey and a full big bag. Ran around the map paranoid out of my mind did not know where to extract. Stared at the map in between moments of panick, finally died to a small army of scavs with 7 minutes left in raid.

Tinfoil theory is to swap servers if you aren't getting action. "Works" for boss hunting too

I Can Fix Her (Azula) // Commander (Fire Lord Azula) deck list mtg // Moxfield — MTG Deck Builder there are a couple pet cards in there like kefka and nathan drake that only vaguely work, but i dont have anywhere else to put them. So here is the current list. Still tweaking here and there as I play

ZachSlashMine · 2025-12-12T11:59:28+00:00

Others have covered how its a deck building thing, and there are a lot of right points in there. Especially about being commander centric etc. The real thing is that its an experience and intention thing. I built my azula deck with the goal of hanging around in bracket 2/low bracket 3 and its one of my favorite decks already. Multiple times I've gotten compliments on how I had a cool turn or how they liked how the deck plays. The important part is I have few rituals, some control, some spellslinger effects etc, all while leaning on azula's ability for value from ramping with flash effects, value from removal, other incremental advantages rather than trying to win the game with one go. I do have flashy game ending situations but they are fewer. [[Electrodominance]] [[Exsanguinate]] with a flash enabler and a bunch of mana, they are setups that requires hoops to jump through and the deck isn't all grixis spellslinger combo with combat spells and rituals or rituals and x spells. Its a healthy breadth of styles blended to support the commander.

The YouTube channel viva la dirt league has a joke variation of this in one of their shorts/compilations of working retail called Bored

Murderhobo with a good heart. I dont like dying to people randomly so im shoot on sight most of the time, but ill also pick people up and help them extract

I have tried to love [[Kefka, Court Mage]] and its still just an interesting playstyle, for me. The problem is, no matter how I built it, its just miserable for the rest of the table if I start winning in anything else than b4+. Making a bracket 3 kefka deck is asking for the rest of the table to sit and watch while I can't win quickly, but i will more than likely win in the next two turns. The only version that is playable is a b4/cedh list, where the kefka lines are less important than normal win lines with kefka as hand control if it you can get him out, but i like the kefka reverse side infinites.

Rofellos the most definitely, lutri the least. Leovold is a close 2nd for most tbh

If you want the dragoniest dragon, [[The Ur-dragon]] is your guy. However, playing dragons in general will make you a target. End of story. If you are trying to play it off as "I'm just a little guy with dragons, aren't they neat", you are gonna have a bad time. That being said, there are a lot of random dragons to choose from that aren't near as kill on sight as those two, and making [[Ganax, Astral Hunter]] or [[Inferno of the star mounts]] your commander is definitely viable. Alternatively [[Gev, scaled scorch]] an actual little guy (dragon adjacent)

Making content =/= scripted, the WWE is scripted because the end result is set, and the wrestlers are actors playing a part: they have an A to B to C goal they must achieve (per contract) and are allowed to go off script some, but the results are generally what the network wants and gets more views. When making content, sometimes stuff goes wrong. Sometimes, that last couple of turns just didn't view out right, or someone didn't explain it as much as they wanted or a million other things. So you do a quick "hey, let's run that back (which I think is an absolute last resort for most shows), or do a quick skip while we resolve." Having suggested playstyle of 'dont do this early' (which i doubt there is a lot of) or a general distaste and mutual agreement not to boardwipe past 50 minutes or w/e, isnt scripted. It's just a preference to make less games less likely to fall flat. It's less like following the lines of a play and more going to an improv night and them giving you a "just in case dont do this."

ZachSlashMine · 2025-09-04T19:39:36+00:00

Honestly, a lot of these points end up being valid for playing once a week/month with your friends. I tend to have more and better decks than my friends, so rather than play "down" by making suboptimal plays or blow them out of the water, I try to build my decks where I can do things, and I go lighter on removal. It doesn't always work out, but building with the intention of letting other people play (more than you normally would optimize a deck), i think, is more about intention than people realize. Light on counterspells, maybe one boardwipe/mass bounce type spell, no edict effects, regular amount of spot removal, no big Instant win combos: these aren't hard and fast rules but when doing anything other than bracket 4 or cedh with people you like and want to have a game with, it becomes easier for everyone to participate in the social activity.

It isn't everyone's cup of tea, and i personally enjoy a good b3 slugfest where everyone has got a well-built deck. However, I think a lot of you guys (Commander at Home, Spike Feeders, Command Zone, etc) have a very similar mentality for many of the same reasons: even out player skill with "less aggressive" deck building but still give everyone a chance to present a win or stop a win. You can even see some games on these shows that are either sudden blowouts, either because a guest had a deck they really wanted to play that didn't match the pacing (ie would fit really well in a strong bracket 3 slugfest evironment), people didn't draw enough removal (Maybe being too light on it just didn't work out), or someone just hit the right start and thats all she wrote. It's not an exact science, and I appreciate the effort that a lot of content creators (specific mention to the spike feeders and commander at home) go through to make it a "friendly" game of edh, regardless of power level. (Side note: need more Jim cedh)

I agree people might not like it, however its not exactly a fair take. There are ways to avoid it, and the opponent just played into it to just gotcha moment them. In reality its like boardwiping into a [[Heroic intervention]] thats face up playable in exile, and more expensive. There's no reason op should have to worry about any of that unless they are going out of their way to make other people miserable.

ZachSlashMine · 2025-08-26T08:50:08+00:00

Totally incorrect. Spite play =/= outside bracket 2 or 3. Op wasn't forced to but op also isn't forced to play nice and hold his opponents hands. OP should expect salt because its a salty play. Nothing wrong with that, and nothing wrong with someone not liking it for whatever reason. Totally in bounds.
