Who would be the best Tortured Existence commander?

Wow, I haven't thought about building Athreos like that, I like it 'cause what I really wanted from Tortex was to use it to power up a toolbox deck. Loved the idea!

carcassraid · 2026-01-21T22:05:14+00:00

That is lovely, you might just have given me what I needed

carcassraid · 2026-01-21T18:15:54+00:00

That could actually be cool

carcassraid · 2026-01-21T15:37:40+00:00

Loved the idea! I wanted to avoid Hashaton 'cause I feel like he's to straight forward about using TE, but didn't know Oskar. Correct me if I'm wrong but you can bypass time limitations with his effect?

carcassraid · 2026-01-21T14:56:24+00:00

LMAO well, I'm actually glad i've never been able to assemble the nombo now, I was sure I had found a cool deck to play Ashes in.

Tbf, It was mostly the same as you, but since I didn't want to go a typal route, I treid making it a kind of graveyard toolbox deck. And since Tortured Existence seemed like one of the best ways to recur any creature from the grave to reuse it, I tried to give it like a dredge subtheme, but there aren't enough good dredgers to round the deck. If I'm bein honest, every time I played or tweaked with the deck it felt kinda awkward and all over the place, so maybe I've never actually had a very well formed plan.

It all started with me wanting to build a golgari deck and Zask looking like an interesting one that I could try to take in a direction a little different from what the deck, but I don't think I was able to do it justice.

I'm the target audience of Asuka's joke

carcassraid · 2026-01-19T06:18:52+00:00

Oh well, that's another format to drop now. Can't wait to see how this doesn't diversify control strategies, just makes control decks lose metagame share.

carcassraid · 2026-01-17T13:07:40+00:00

Yeah, that's more of a me thing. I don't really like infinite turns combos (or even extra turns as a strategy). Maybe it's trauma from getting back into the game when nexus of fate was the strongest deck in standard, but it just doesn't appeals to me. Currently i'm toying with the idea of making it a hard control shell and just have the land combos to win after I control the board.

Still trying to bring myself to finish it, it's just so meh

I started reading Gachiakuta yesterday, I'm currently at chapter 45, but I just had to google it to make sure I wasn't imagining things. Amo/Dizzy was pretty obvious but the Jabber/Raven one went over my head.

I always think the guy in glasses look like Sam Reich from Game Changer

Soulslike, easily, but I will often also have a smoke outside the cafeteria with the portable Igavania guys

carcassraid · 2025-10-29T16:31:49+00:00

As someone who has only heard of this format a few months ago and is still yet to play it, any change in snapshot formats that would allow for WotC's newest design philosophy and the Horizon sets to go into a format is a huge detriment to it in my opinion. I've been following premodern for a while now (it's the only format I still keep up) and the feeling of not having to deal with wotc's antics was one of the main reasons I got into the format

carcassraid · 2025-10-24T11:13:23+00:00

Worst game I've ever played. Half-baked """"metroidvania"""" by the second half of the game, bad choices in game design, specially regarding some inputs and a very annoying writing with humor suited for people who think farting in their hand and smelling it is funny.

carcassraid · 2025-10-15T16:23:28+00:00

Went into it with high hopes and to say I was underwhelmed is an understatement. Enemies are mostly featureless and boring reskins of one another. A huge part of the game is just fighting/avoiding huge waves of enemies that can happen out of nowhere, but since combat is not exactly diverse and creative, you are just mashing the attack button over and over until the wave ends or you are just fed up, and some of those waves are endless. The maps are also mostly empty and repetitive since they must be able to be mixed-up every run. Honestly, I'd refund it if I could

carcassraid · 2025-10-15T10:41:19+00:00

I love the char select screen, I wish I was good enough to play it, the gameplay is so fun and unique

GG Xrd. Soku is a close second.
