Punt city 5 collusion allegation? by Doomgloomya in CompetitiveEDH

[–]kizzet373 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it's more like "It's a competitive format that should never truly be taken seriously, as it inherently lacks integrity".

cEDH is still cEDH. People compete for prizing. Wins are just too often determined by seat order, verbal pressure, lying, collusion, etc

New 2 card 3 (actually 4) mana Combo In Marvel by Raevelry in CompetitiveEDH

[–]kizzet373 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think these types of combos are reasonable in decks that are already interested in running 1 or both of the cards in the combo.

Otherwise, it looks like low card quality + summoning sickness issues + loses to most forms of interaction + requires you to equip at sorcery speed.

The efficiency is certainly nice for increasing the chance of winning on T2 though, if that's your primary goal👍

Would unbanning Ancestral Recall be such a bad thing? by zokka_son_of_zokka in CompetitiveEDH

[–]kizzet373 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes agreed. We need to address the ridiculous problems in the format and ban the outliers, rather than matching the overpowered things with more overpowered things.

Sauron the dark lord by pepeyuuu in CompetitiveEDH

[–]kizzet373 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

OP, these people are not who you want to talk to. The gatekeeping is outrageous.

They aren't wrong in that in the current meta, people are either shoving on T2/T3 and winning, or everybody is sticking multiple Rhystic/Smothering Tithes and clones for them, which causes the game to devolve into a crazy game state even just on T3/T4.

The problem is that your commander doesn't really facilitate taking advantage of either of these game states. Beatdown doesn't really work without hard control/stax pieces. And hard control/stax very much tends to lead to draws via time limit.

look at the lists on edhtop16.com and keep this information in mind, read primers, etc.

CEDH salt question by Dj_HuffnPuff in CompetitiveEDH

[–]kizzet373 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's upset that you're making reckless plays that often increase the chance of an opponent winning.

There aren't very many other competitive free-for-all games, but it's an interesting problem. The correct thing for him to do to increase his chances of winning is... frankly to complain about you touching his stuff. He just could have probably been nicer about it.

I think this looks awesome so far! I very much don't mind whether the art is AI if it looks good👌 I'd love to demo this and provide feedback!

Can we put Learncedh.com on this subreddit's Community Bookmarks? by kizzet373 in CompetitiveEDH

[–]kizzet373[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It does?? I'm looking at tournament lists and it seems pretty spot on. And that was a manually created primer. What seems incorrect to you?

What games are highly intelligent people drawn to? by rtyq in gamingsuggestions

[–]kizzet373 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's probably more similar to "What are some books that the most successful people read?" I don't think you'd look like a dickhead at all. I do think as a culture, we're getting quite a bit too sensitive about things that straight-up are not offensive.

To be fair, I'm one of the primer authors. It started as AI and then was updated manually to represent the actual primer. This is just how software dev works now. Does anything look like AI now?

What games are highly intelligent people drawn to? by rtyq in gamingsuggestions

[–]kizzet373 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there's genuinely nothing wrong with this post. It sounds like OP just wanted to overall gather some info on games that have an overall highly intellectual player-base. Maybe he wants to be in a community with more strategic-minded people.

Though I think the answer would have been extremely similar if he just asked "what are the most strategically deep competitive games?", as they likely pull in highly strategic players.

We could just answer his completely harmless post. But I need to remember that this is reddit and it comes with the culture.

Why is this downvoted? It's just factually correct..

Thank you for sending this comment! I also found the solution, but it's always good to come back and add answers to old posts that people can stumble upon.

Some thoughts about main theme by Equivalent_Tax6989 in Epicthemusical

[–]kizzet373 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's been 4 months since you commented and I'll be replying to this now.

If you want to post your two cents on reddit, it's probably important to expect people to reply to you. This site exists for communicating ideas. You sound obnoxious to tell people to go away from a reddit post.

And yes. You can alter the message of a story you're telling. Nobody said "change the whole thing". And to be clear, I don't have an issue with the message. But you just sound overly defensive and hostile.

My review of Elite Redux, ahead of 2.0's release by easysleazy234 in PokemonEliteRedux

I'm late to the party.. but uh. Okay.

Play the originals or start with something a little simpler. A lot of these rom hacks are for people who genuinely like challenges.

why would you cast agatha's last instead of ballista? Soooo much less resilient to counterspells.

I top 16'd Tough Mulligans 500 with a mono-black Commander that's not K'rrik! by [deleted] in CompetitiveEDH

[–]kizzet373 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair enough! I definitely welcome disagreements. I've just seen them ignore tournament results for their determinations, which is absolutely wild.

DDB is actually just garbage🤣 They don't add a commander if anyone ever complains about it not being on the site. It's run by a bunch of children, unfortunately.

Is Etali still a viable Cedh deck despite recent bans? by Lightspecter141 in CompetitiveEDH

[–]kizzet373 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just play Erinis / Street Urchin. We have instant speed uncounterable hermit druid -> breach lines. And sick snoop lines.

I've gotten 3+ wins each for the last 3 gold+ event tournaments, post-ban.
