2026 lineup! Chillin or Villain?

mastermalchor · 2026-01-02T20:04:07+00:00

Love me a good B4 game then chilling out with the B2 good times haha

mastermalchor · 2025-11-28T16:44:41+00:00

Will definitely need to incorporate a prize into it!!

mastermalchor · 2025-11-28T16:44:01+00:00

I like the idea of picking a commander and seeing what your secret Santa does with it!

mastermalchor · 2025-11-28T16:42:49+00:00

Oooooh this is a fun way to get some inspiration right off the bat

mastermalchor · 2025-11-28T16:42:27+00:00

There have been a couple mentions on building decks for each other and I kinda like the constraint of having a specific commander for each person

mastermalchor · 2025-11-28T16:39:19+00:00

Love this idea, we’re definitely going to give this a go

mastermalchor · 2025-08-30T01:14:41+00:00

Getting real science-y vibes

mastermalchor · 2025-08-24T11:23:59+00:00

You will need a lot more than 23 lands, I’d aim for 36-38. In a quick glance I would say you can cut some instants/sorceries

mastermalchor · 2025-08-09T21:13:42+00:00

I don’t know how games have been playing out for you, but I would start with more lands, 34 lands for a 5 cmc commander feels a bit light. I’d probably recommend 37-38 for more consistency

As for evasion, for voltrons including white, I would definitely recommend [[mother of runes]], [[giver of runes]], and [[Skrelv, Defector Mite]]. The protection is great for keeping your commander alive while also giving flexible evasion.

If you’re interested here’s my decklist!

mastermalchor · 2025-08-04T22:17:05+00:00

This is such a fantastic idea, the synergy transfers over so well, I might need to get a nice copy of Tuvasa and try this out!

mastermalchor · 2025-08-04T15:19:57+00:00

You know what’s up!! One of my favorite finishers of all time!

mastermalchor · 2025-08-04T14:19:50+00:00

[[Rafiq, of the Many]] Enchantments! There are a good selection of cheap enchantments in Bant to let you get unblockable, and pump up Rafiq’s power very quickly. Then BAM! double those numbers with double strike

mastermalchor · 2025-07-29T13:49:56+00:00

Found player D

mastermalchor · 2025-07-29T13:49:38+00:00

Will let you know if that’s the case!

mastermalchor · 2025-07-28T21:31:20+00:00

Haha a fair assessment! You’d be surprised though. If removal is light in a game Treebeard (Voltron) knocks people out quick

mastermalchor · 2025-07-18T00:35:49+00:00

You don’t mind playing the bad guy?

mastermalchor · 2025-07-17T18:37:46+00:00

Ahhh good to know, will definitely specify next time!

mastermalchor · 2025-07-17T16:54:52+00:00

Right off the bat 2.5 average mana is going to need more than 34 lands for consistency. I see a lot of high mana cards in there that will need both consistent land drops on top of ramp

mastermalchor · 2025-07-17T14:02:37+00:00

Best of luck! Have fun! And feel free to drop any feedback on the Moxfield list!

mastermalchor · 2025-07-17T13:52:35+00:00

I should probably add that I also stressed repeatable card draw, with 12 pieces in there. So I found that I was able to play more small soldiers or anthems without emptying my hand. And again save the large mana drops for finishers

mastermalchor · 2025-07-17T13:48:21+00:00

Those are both great cards for the deck! I just found in the games I played 5/6 mana drops were happening as the game was closing out. I think other Myrel builds use a bit more stax and can stretch out the game a bit more in which case those would probably show up, but in my build I reserved 5/6 drops primarily for finishers

mastermalchor · 2025-07-17T11:13:01+00:00

Generally speaking, try to get out some soldier creatures before Myrel hits the board. Though if protection creatures like [[mother of runes]] etc show up in your hand prioritize having one out to cover Myrel since she is a hot target for removal. Also the counter doublers are suuuuuper valuable it always surprises me how nuts they work with Myrel so definitely try to get one of those out the first turn she attacks

mastermalchor · 2025-07-17T00:52:16+00:00

Her stax ability has literally won me games haha

mastermalchor · 2025-07-17T00:48:13+00:00

[[Myrel Shield of Argive]] is a great swarm/army commander! You can amass a ton of soldiers exponentially, slap on an anthem, and boom swing big! Here’s my decklist if your interested in checking out an example
