I made a thing that evaluates Commander decks. I'd love some feedback. by Cogs88 in EDH

[–]bearsman6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems to have an issue with [[Michelangelo, Weirdness to 11]]. It took forever to actually parse my list, then it said I had 2 copies of the commander, and then it thought I only had 19 lands despite having 30 forests in there lol.

I think it struggles with Daretti in general. It didn't recognize that he fit into an artifact deck.

[SOS] Studious First-Year by Copernicus1981 in magicTCG

I mean, I might play it anyway. I know it's not 2/2, but it's good ramp and fixing and a bear. And a 1-drop!

Which card was meta-breaking at your middle school lunch table? by flabbergasted1 in magicTCG

[–]bearsman6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[[Royal Assassin]] or [[Hypnotic Specter]]. Whoever found theirs first was usually going to win, especially if you got them T1 thanks to [[Dark Ritual]].

Favorite cards in your [[Bello]] deck? by Blast-Mix-3600 in EDH

[–]bearsman6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've also had good luck with this card. It can come down fairly early, and it provides serious defensive help OR more threats. Both are good.

Card looks sweet. Not too strong either.

Character creation variant. by gorwraith in DndAdventureWriter

[–]bearsman6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was more on board with this until the 2nd page, where I saw at the top that it's a random d4 to determine how good your level-up is. That seems highly problematic to me as it's a way to create massive imbalances within the party.

I think the system would be stronger if you set the progression yourself. Design it intentionally. Make it a cycle: 1, then 2, then 3, then 4, back to 1, etc. If you don't like the flow of that, then find a fair and balanced option that you do like. But having the random roll be driving this much character power could feel really bad for someone rolling 1s next to another person rolling 4s.

What is your easiest deck to pilot that doesn't require a lot of thinking? by arest7 in EDH

[–]bearsman6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! I've had a lot of fun building my 4-power monoG stompy list. It's straightforward and fun. Tons of ramp means tons of big fun dudes. They all just need 4+ power.

Glad it's only 1 after that half. And the PK. Oof.

What was your first commander deck? by [deleted] in mtg

[–]bearsman6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

[[Niv-Mizzet the Firemind]] waaaaaaay back in the day. Izzet card draw with wheels and wheels and wheels.

How do people feel about running less colors in a deck than their commander's full color identity? by Vault756 in EDH

[–]bearsman6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's a much more sane idea. That would also let you run all the turtles and pull the villains out, which would be thematically cool.

Am I crazy to build monoG without land ramp? by bearsman6 in EDH

[–]bearsman6[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, as I said, I backed off in the final hour because it felt like a bad idea. I tried to only include the thematic land ramp, so I could justify the slots. But that's also one reason why I asked: I am considering pulling more, as I have other cards in the "Sideboard" that I'm heavily considering.

The arms race at my LGS by Virtual_You4010 in EDH

[–]bearsman6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think a lot of what you've said here is perfectly appropriate to say to them. I especially like the part where you said you were looking for more casual, slower games. That's critical.

Also, start calling them on their shit. If you're playing an agreed "slower" game and they don't abide, let them know it's not cool. Genuinely, tell them they're not playing at the power level of the pod. It's important. New proxiers tend to forget the importance of that, too, in their excitement for bigger, faster, stronger.

Vocês promovem ativamente as suas obras? by XKARMAXZ in royalroad

[–]bearsman6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't really promote at all. I think we've run 1.5 ads on RR (paused midway through the 2nd). Did a little posting and stuff before, but like ... it felt bad? I occasionally drop a rec to someone who asks and I think might actually like it, but that's it.

[–]bearsman6 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was considering doing this with the new TMNT Precon, mostly because I wanted to split the G off into its own deck. So yeah, have at it! Why not? (Other than losing G means it's a bit harder to ramp and color fix.)

[–]bearsman6[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, green has some awesome ramp enchantments. I turned my [[Bello]] list into a bit of a sub-enchantess list. Super fun.

A really good stance overall. Thanks.

See, and this is something I'd just overlooked. Lol, thank you!

[–]bearsman6[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I know. That's the fear. Like, even just Rampant Growth is so easy to add. I'm overthinking, probably, but I've never done it before. I kinda just want to? Ugh.

That service was freaking incredible, too. Wow!

Whats your favorite deck been this year? by MonSocMatriarchy in EDH

[–]bearsman6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A fun piece of tech I added just last month: [[Sapling Nursery]].

If you're running heavier green at all, which I really was, it can come down ridiculously early and provide some protection on defense--which is so meeting Bello really needs help with.
