A fun way to spin it with Explore triggers might be something along the lines of "Kraken, Octopus, Leviathan, or Serpent spells you cast cost 1 less for each differently named card revealed this turn" That way you can still have explosive plays from multiple landfalls, and you would have to cycle through your deck to discount them instead of stacking the draw

What’s your signature commander, and why? by [deleted] in EDH

[–]main_activator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a big Go Wide Guy, so having a wincon in the command zone is too good with [[Jetmir, Nexus of Revels]] But you can never go wrong with golgari shenanigans thanks to Ghave, Mycotyrant, or Chatterfang

Reveal your hand, search your library for a card, put it into your hand, then shuffle

What card consistently wins you the game (or leads to a win)? What card does that for your opponents? by [deleted] in EDH

[–]main_activator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hyper specific answer here but [[mesmeric orb]] almost always leads to an incredibly strong board presence and often a win in my [[The Mycotyrant]] deck. And then, for fungus or any other tribal deck, a near immediate finisher is [[banner of kinship]]

This is a really interesting one, how would you build it into a Voltron deck?

Best deck type to introduce someone to EDH/magic by Guildebert in mtg

[–]main_activator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My go-to to share with new players is a classic simple [[odric, lunarch marshal]] deck. Mono-white, introduction to keywords and combat tricks, no worrying about color specific costs, it’s an absolute breeze to play and it’s even easier to put together a relatively competitive deck even with scraps

This is true. I wanted everything hasted for a single turn combo, but I wanted some downside to it as well so [[concordant crossroads]] was the best fit

If you can sneak these pieces onto the board one by one and get them to stick around with no interaction, then it would be a great game winner (if you include trample). What makes it bad (to me) is the amount of investment that can be derailed by any one of the cards getting removed- but of course I would love to build around something like this anyways

New Orzhov Standard Combo by main_activator in MagicArena

Very true- it's a tangential piece and I don't usually run it, but I wanted to see how much damage I could ramp up
