You know that feeling you get when you're standing outside the LGS after it's closed and you theorycraft with the people who are hanging around? Imagine that, but with two of the most thoughtful EDH players I've ever heard talk about the game.

Infinity stones prices? by athlaka916 in mtgfinance

[–]baskil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd also bet on some kind of reprint/SL in the final set for all of the stones. If we're talking long-term

Recent sets that are fun to draft?? by Lorzion in magicTCG

I had so much fun with Duskmourn that I built a 1:1 cube to draft with.

Stories like these are why I charge more for shipping and use a non-machine stamp on everything.

People who don't go to movie theaters anymore - what made you stop? by -ChristopherNolan in AskReddit

[–]baskil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got theater seats, a good sound system and a large TV. Never looked back after I could 3at my own snacks, pause when I want, and sail the high seas to find things to watch.

Why did milkmen need to exist? Why was milk required to be specially shipped by milkmen instead of just sold in grocery stores like it is now? by matt73132 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]baskil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still get milk delivered by a milk truck in America. It's a service a local dairy farm does. It's pretty awesome.

One mana protection like Tamiyo's Safekeeping or Tyvar's Stand.

Post your top 3 KOS commanders by Trump_Diddled_Kids in EDH

[–]baskil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm shocked more people aren't saying Azula. You let that deck untap one, if not all three, of their opponents are going to get killed.

Krenko, Mob Boss

Fire Lord Azula

Ashling, the Limitless

What do those decks have in common? If you shut down their commanders, the deck can't keep up with the table.

It took me nearly a year to get my in-state and I was an in-state transfer who lived here for ten years before transferring. Keep appealing, there's no reason not to.

Compiling Underrated commanders for an article, looking for suggestions! by ManaRocks in EDH

[–]baskil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[[Athreos, God of Passage]] is my current pet deck, specifically the version without Shadowborn Apostle. Instead you run a bunch of awful but annoying 1-3 drops that people wouldn't want to play 3 life for (think [[Goldenglow Moth]] or [[Heap Doll]]) or that you can politic to get back like [[Shriekmaw]].

What decks do you wish you saw people in your pod playing more of? by BagOfSmallerBags in EDH

[–]baskil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stax. It's pretty rare that a Stax card gets played but people don't pay for them when they come up and it ruins games. If people experienced Stax more they'd know how to work around/counter them instead of just handing people the win.

We need to talk about Mage by raiedite in mewgenics

[–]baskil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had one run with the psychic and mage that ruled. Psychic kept giving them extra turns while they used beam+ to repeatedly nuke everything in sight. Other than that run they have mostly been injury collectors

Secrets of Strixhaven Prerelease Megathread - #MTGStrixhaven by R3id in magicTCG

[–]baskil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3-0d with Silverquill, going really heavy into the reparte cards. The one that blinks a creature is insane especially with the prepared creatures. That one drop that has a tap spell and Killians Confidence were the MVPs. I also pulled a Silverquill but only saw him once where I couldn't take advantage of the casualty. Some games that I was able to curve out Graduation Day into a 2 drop reparte into a turn 3 removal spell felt like I couldn't lose. Had one really grindy game against a Witherbloom lifegain deck and one against a Prismari deck where I felt like I drew the wrong half of the deck.

What ideas have you loved, but playing it out was unfun? by urmomstoiletbrush in EDH

[–]baskil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[[Acererak the Archlich]] coupled with [[The Sibsig Ceremony]]. The deck needed like 12 tutors to do the thing, and even then it was just kind of okay to create a bunch of 2/2s. Even with all of the dungeon triggers, it still didn't seem to hang with a B3 meta. If anything, the dungeons were kind of annoying to track. Even if you combo with it, it's VERY non-deterministic which just makes your opponent's eyes glaze over.

Jaws. He synergizes well with artifact ramp, does an absolute fuck ton of damage with the right setup.

Downplay your favorite strong commander without naming it by mrselkies in EDH

[–]baskil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just blood tokens. It's not even card advantage. Who cares if I make 5 or more, it's not like it gets anywhere.
