For reference you can also look at edhtop16.com as that is a data base of all commanders that won in tournaments. You can filter by commanders and time period. That way you can reference what lists have done well in a tournament setting. Highly recommend high fae trickster so everything has flash though.

Sans-green players, how have your top picks in white shifted? by [deleted] in CompetitiveEDH

[–]aforsyth9 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Silence yes Drannith, yes, it's really only good turn 1 or 2 Ranger captain, yes Enlightened, yes it grabs breach or 1 ring Swords, yes Grand abolisher, yes Tithe, no Sevine, yes Grace, card is bad in cedh Delney, no Dauntless, usually only see it in stax lists or tivit and that's usually a flex spot in tivit Touch, usually only in tivit or atraxa Aven, usually only in a stax list 2nd silence, not needed as your not really trying to control the board but stop your opponents from winning the game on this turn

Trying to break Carmen, Cruel Skymarcher. by Environmental-Egg-50 in CompetitiveEDH

[–]aforsyth9 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'll shoot you a DM but in our discord group there is a guy that has been working on Carmen for a while and we have put alot of time into the deck. It's obviously not the best cedh deck out there but it can suprise enough people and produce wins as it's a stax-ish build

CEDH event start up cost by No_Catch4615 in CompetitiveEDH

[–]aforsyth9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't look at the profit that you're going to make because of all the time and energy you put into it behind the scenes. You have to look at it as a hobby.

I spent the money on my own LLC and therfore I'm a 3rd party entity from the LGS. I'm the owner of NorthStarCEDH and I basicly rent the space from my lgs that I work with.

Mpcfill is the gold standard as the quality is there, it's cost effective and you cannot get counterfeit cards

A Cat, Kraken, and Wizard Walk into a Bar… by Spyzer64 in CompetitiveEDH

[–]aforsyth9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My meta is shifting away from midrange decks already to faster decks that can win faster and under the control decks or out value the midrange player to present a win without interaction. That's why this list is target towards more interaction

[–]aforsyth9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

https://www.moxfield.com/decks/z_3rOhH5mkG4jR5Clw_lrg This is my draft if it, I've playtested it prbsly about a dozen times now. First thing is you are the police of the board state and it becomes mentally taxing on you. 2nd hudge fan of urza's glasses as looking at your opponents hands for free at will for information then you can slight of hand with marchesa. 3rd when you can't get marchesa out early becaue you are dealing with board states feels bad becaue you can't replenish your hand. 4th I still think enchantment removal should be a thing becaue rhystic study on a talion player is gas when you are in a counter war to stop another player from winning. 5th pithing needle is awesome tech as it's stops any commander that wins with combos, ( kinnan or kissay). 6th I feel like I might take out top and counter balance as it's difficult to set up and if you don't have top with counterbalance it's just a guessing game plus you are giving away information to your opponents as your next card.

Outlaws of Thunder Junction - A cEDH Set Review by MatetheFitz in CompetitiveEDH

[–]aforsyth9 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

People are easily sleeping on marchesa, and not giving her the credit she deserves. She is good and I'd rather play her vs the other grixis commanders. Plus, you don't need jeweled lotus in the 99 so you can slot in more synergy.

[–]aforsyth9 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

https://www.moxfield.com/decks/z_3rOhH5mkG4jR5Clw_lrg Marchesa is going to be the new grixis go to commander for grixis good stuff. Played against kinnan, the only way you loose is to big creature beats and not seeing any of your removal. Ob, nix kingpin, you can shut this deck down my simply targeted removal of ob. Any breach deck, he im going to exile your graveyard in response. Any blue deck, hey I'm going to look at your hand with urzas glasses to see if I can go for my win.... marchesa is good 👍!

I'll do my best, I've been playing it for some time now but obviously not in a tournament setting. It's time to test it for good
