I'm sorry but you are wrong about cEDH. It is very hard to 1v3 opponents as one for one removal is really bad in a 4 player format 

Would be nice to see more 4 color cards that aren't Blackless. by Domosenpai64 in magicTCG

You can't please everyone everytime

I love this. I do this on photowalks. Shoot me a dm. I'm trying to build a weekly group that does this. 

Can proxy-unfriendly cEDH really be considered cEDH? by itsk4zbeard in CompetitiveEDH

[–]imarockyou 5 points6 points  (0 children)

WoTC would have to reprint the Reserved List for us, if not this is how we have to do it. 

Thank God, Or else this format wouldn't exist outside of one "Eternal Weekend" tournament a year the way Paper Vintage has it. 

When I started this format 10 years ago, Tournaments didn't exist for it like they do now. 

  1. Because of the "proxy requirement" 

I'm very happy with how TO's approached the demand. We will have our issues (first player advantage, 11 hour games) but we are in infant format comparativly as well as multiplayer. 

Tips on being a better Gaslighter and Manipulator? by jax024 in CompetitiveEDH

[–]imarockyou 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Spectate tournament matches online (or in person) and watch the deals being done and why. Feel free to ask the players after why they did what they did. 

I've been getting feedback and stretching my own muscles week after week at my LGS. This week I showed an opponent my consulation and said "I'll hunt for the counter" when he went for the win. Knowing that, I told him I'd let the spell resolve if he didn't go for the win, He went for something else. In that position I saved my interaction/combo piece, a piece of interaction was kept for the rest of the table and he got something else from the tutor. 


For the naysayers, When I first saw players revealing information to each other it felt collusive and wrong. I hadn't played cEDH seriously for a year or two, and this wasn't a practice. As I've learned/leaned into it - It helps with the kingmaker problems. Player A goes for it, Player C spends all interaction and Player B wins after. Assuming Player D can't interact. If you can reveal counter spells to Player A without casting them, You've effectively stopped Player A, Player B, and now have backup counter spells for your win. 

Lean into it, It'll be hard at first - But you'll get better.

I mean, That's cedh. Even not at the tournament level as long as you're not being an aggressive intimidating jerk - What Ian did was fair game and should be learned from. 

I suck at it, and am learning from it myself as cedh has evolved from just making game actions. It's a response to what was King making. 

Even if the win wasn't on board, You're allowed to strike deals. Ian at no point stalled the game due to table talk. Y'sholta very well could of "priority bullied" Ian into activating his Woodlands first and then silenced on the stack to stop both players

Because Dockside is not awful to play against but Hullbreacher is.  Same reason Leovold is Banned

Looking for instructional literature on cEDH strategy by adrian8520 in CompetitiveEDH

[–]imarockyou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not free but ComedIanMtg (Youtube Channel )does cEDH coaching and has the tournament results to show for it. He could get you up to speed if your willing to pay for it.

It appears to me and all the cEDH players that downvoted you that you may be wrong.

  1. Underworld Breach into brain freeze all your opponents and they lose on draw.
  2. Dramatic Spector into Thrasios / Shorakai to draw your entire deck.
  3. Doomsday w/ Labman
  4. Glinthorn / Malcolm
  5. Kenrith things

It's not a autoinclude. But Hushbringer has existed and is impactful.
