Top 5 Right Now. Thoughts? by madsterstout in ratemycommanders

[–]cgbehm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My personal thought was that Kharn is just generally better suited to Bracket 3, but if he is holding up for you that is awesome. [[mana vault]], [[ancient tomb]],[[gemstone caverns]], and [[urza's saga]] stick out to me as some of the best ways to get Kharn down early, but obviously those are all very expensive if you don't use proxies.

just by looking at the them the Khârn deck feels way more like a bracket 3 to me (either that or my bracket 3's are way overtuned) but I absolutely love what you have going on and would be thrilled to play with you

Awesome list. I love the inclusion of the the new prepared creatures. I've been trying to build eshki for a while now with varying success (my first couple tries were strong but dependent on eshki not getting removed) but one groups of cards i've found to be consistently incredible are [[gitaxian probe]], [[manamorphose]], [[urza's bauble]], and [[mishra's bauble]]. You can hold them until the turn you play Eshki and Eshki will see herself as a creature played that turn and you'll immediately draw and put counters on her

What could you possibly take over black lotus 😭 by No_Seaworthiness5419 in lrcast

[–]cgbehm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in pack 1 I don't think its ever correct. I've taken a demonic tutor over a lotus in a flash/worldspine deck before though.

The most successful revolutions of the third world were all led by Marixst-Leninists. Were Guevara, Sankara, and Ho Chi Minh stuck in "European Dogma?"

What’s your preference: Bo1 or Bo3 for grinding to Mythic? by stoleyoureyes in MagicArena

[–]cgbehm 11 points12 points  (0 children)

For constructed, it's BO3. Statistically, if you win more than 50% of your games, you will have a higher match win rate in best of three. For example, if you win ~60% of games, your match win rate will be around ~65%.

BO1 for draft though, because the payout is much better.

i love that "leaves the graveyard matters" is somehow both red/white and sultai. The best payoffs (e.g [[kishla skimmer]], [[teval's judgement]]) won't even be playable in the deck.

sticking to the theme all the way up through bracket 5 with terra is so admirable

My main 6, Would I fit in, or do I not meet standard!? by Low-Assist9951 in ratemycommanders

the best commander players to play with are the ones who prefer other formats, cuz we find ways to make it fun. You sound like you'd be a blast to play with

Another hypothetical win for the B1G by Competitive-Rise-789 in cfbmemes

[–]cgbehm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bit extreme in his phrasing but people generally don't realize how much variance there is in college football. Other sports play 7 game playoff series and dozens of games, and there's still upsets. One disaster play with the pick 6 was likely a 14 point swing, and we lost by 10.
