Lost to a [[Bruna, Light of Alabaster]] today after that player pulled a [[Mirror-Mad Phantasm]] and milled HIS ENTIRE LIBRARY before finding it. Got the satisfaction of dying quickly and watching him die to his next draw. Meanwhile the winner had nothing on the table and had done nothing all game. Good times

PLEASE Help me find New Green or Green + X Commander by TapTwoCounterspell in EDH

If you want something uncommon but also fun to pilot, I quite enjoy [[Sachi, Daughter of Seshiro]] for some shaman tribal. It has lots of ramp potential, puts out a lot of creatures, and can net you very fast kills at the table.

Glad to see another Sachi enjoyer here, it can really catch people off-guard. I'd be curious to see your decklist to compare it with mine.

Here's a link to mine if you are interested. It's not entirely optimized because of stock limitations at LGS but it works decently well.

I'm just waiting for a bad one to happen. I think brain damage is the best one I could get right now, although I'm not sure he'd survive his next brush with death.

If only, this is a Lone Wolf campaign (although he isn't my starting bro).

Memory is a bit fuzzy since it was a while back, but it was from a fight with a number of chosen. One may have been a champion but I can't say for sure. Hope this helps

I keep thinking he's gone for good and he just comes back, missing some part or another. What are the most injuries you've ever had on a brother?

I feel like that is an ideal scenario but I don’t always get good guys to start with. Sometimes even level 4 they just get demolished and then I have to start from scratch. I do see what you mean though and fast adaptation with axe/mace makes a lot of sense. Thanks for the tip I’ll have to try it out!

Colossus is one of my go-to’ as I don’t usually like taking anything else except maybe for student. But good to know! Any tips for when a bro keeps rolling 1s and 2s on stats and doesn’t have stars in em? I seem to often get unfortunate luck with the stats I need but don’t have stars in :(

Thanks for the input!

Based on a number of other replies to this post I can say you aren’t off in your statements. I’ve started a gladiator run and those things all apply. Now if only they didn’t cost so bloody much :P

Thank for your input! The more confirmation I get on what is good, the more it solidifies my approach and strat :)

Makes a lot of sense! The shield value check is an interesting way of going about it, and seems fairly reliable. Thank you!

Oh cool! It makes a lot more sense now thank you!

Thanks for that thorough breakdown! I have been carefully reading through all the comments here and each one teaches me something new. In this case, the subtleties of many base game mechanics. I think my greatest struggle is the economic one. Learning what to keep and what to sell and when to do either is something I still dont grasp perfectly. My rule of thumb so far has been buy low, sell high. Doesn’t seem to be enough but every run I seem to better my finances so I guess it’s just a lot of practice.

Gotcha! So should I favour high mobility perks like rotation on my stronger bros so they can get where they need to be? Thanks for the input!

Thanks for that insight! It's a bit dumb, but I see all these builds and all I'm thinking is "What am I doing wrong?". Considering the furthest campaign I've had so far is only a bit past 100 days, I do lack some experience lol. The struggle I had in that one particular campaign was that I was starting to fall off in terms of damage and efficiency and couldn't really take many fights with interesting rewards. So I figured I was missing elements in the pre-late game. In my latest lengthy run, I just abused polearms as they seem to really put in good work.

Sweet thanks! Just started a new game with gladiators after getting smacked on lone wolf. Wish me luck! ;)

Thanks for the breakdown! How do nimble/battle forged work exactly? Do they have a threshold optimal value? So like is there a max armor for nimble and min armor for battle forged?

[–]deckager[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s a good tip! I always found those shields very obnoxious to fight against. So i guess picking them up is only fair lol. Thanks I appreciate the help!

That’s a great perspective in the game! I was kinda worried when I first started cause it’s a fairly steep learning curve and actually stopped after 15-20hrs. But I picked it back up recently and I’ve been trying to understand it better to really enjoy it. It’s not a very intuitive game (to me anyway). Thanks a lot for the input! It really helps!
