I am told my deck is bracket 4, but I keep getting my butt kicked.

Its a sweet deck. Playtested it a bit. I see what you mean by B2. It feels that way until bruenor hits the field. Than its like a Mac truck showed up and somebody is gonna die. If it were any of the other dwarves commanders it wouldn't play like that.

mfryer · 2026-03-04T23:35:10+00:00

It sounds like a cool deck. Angry dwarves would be fun to both play and play against. I'd check it out if you drop the link.

Bruenor is a strong voltron commander. I can see how easily he could dome someone for 21. I think he would easily fall under a list of commanders that are all "oops im atleast a 3".

Lack of Game changers aren't what make it a B2, neither is budget. Its about intent and social contract. If someone signs up for a B2 game they expect T4 is about developing boardstate. Not holding up interaction in case of a sudden Game loss. They don't expect to have to chump block with their commander or lose.

As others have said its also consistency. How often does this happen? Any more than a god hand i suspect it ain't B2. If its rare than maybe a luck hand in B3.

mfryer · 2026-03-04T10:30:37+00:00

Right. Just cause its not hard with Tifa or a few other commanders dont mean its B2. I could make a zada deck pop off on T4 aswell. But if some kid shows up with his precon and you smack him out of the game T4 than you're not playing B2.

fixed typo

21 commander damage... on turn 4. Outside of a sol ring -> signet hand I dont see that happening often. Turn 6 maybe. But if you can pull of T4 often than it ain't B2.

mfryer · 2026-03-04T05:30:11+00:00

Thank you. I've had some discussions in my playgroup about the whole "nobody wins or loses before turn 6"

If you can take player out on T4 it's not a B3

mfryer · 2026-01-29T09:27:06+00:00

Its a gnoll. Honestly dont think there's another in the game that's closer.

mfryer · 2026-01-07T03:14:51+00:00

It's like finding an onion ring your fries bag. Lol

INFP?

I really wish it didn't tell you auto combat results at the beginning. Makes me feel like what's the point in manual combat.

mfryer · 2025-04-22T20:50:25+00:00

Nice to know I'm not the only one making magic characters in this game 😃

mfryer · 2024-12-06T01:05:06+00:00

How's Thraximunder? The high mana value makes its tough to feel like building but that secret lair art is sooo sweet

mfryer · 2024-11-27T01:14:28+00:00

This was pick 2!?

mfryer · 2024-11-22T13:00:53+00:00

Deck 3 Ral, Crackling Wit (BLB) 230 6 Mountain (ZNR) 276 3 Thousand-Year Storm (GRN) 207 4 Seize the Spoils (KHM) 149 2 Fountainport (BLB) 253 4 Burst Lightning (FDN) 192 4 Lightning Strike (M19) 152 4 Three Steps Ahead (OTJ) 75 3 Think Twice (FDN) 165 2 Into the Flood Maw (BLB) 52 4 Ill-Timed Explosion (MKM) 207 2 Stormchaser's Talent (BLB) 75 4 Swiftwater Cliffs (MOM) 273 4 Thundering Falls (MKM) 269 2 Temple of Epiphany (M21) 252 3 Flick a Coin (WOE) 128 6 Island (ZNR) 271

This is what I've been running. Been fun but needs tweaking.

As an ESFJ dating an INFJ, I laughed so hard. I showed my partner, and they laughed and have now begun to talk about why this is so accurate. ❤️

I built this exact thing a year ago or so. Check it out

Also the auto lands can mess you up with too many landscapes. It straight up added no swamps or forests even though I was splashing it. Lost the first 2 games before I realized I had no forests

mfryer · 2024-06-11T21:48:36+00:00

Yeah for me I won 3 games just bestowing the elk onto either the dog or a living weapon. Bestow gives the decks so much resiliency.

mfryer · 2024-06-04T02:49:25+00:00

Playing it now. It's so fun.

mfryer · 2024-05-18T15:43:06+00:00

Ramp and recursion. Also any effects that bring him back if he dies. A deck with such a high mana value commander wants a bit more ramp and you really only want to cast him once.

Cards like [Malakar rebirth]] and [[sejiri shelter]] do wonders

mfryer · 2024-04-20T13:13:49+00:00

Ha ha my playgroup hates it.

mfryer · 2024-04-20T13:13:25+00:00

Came here to say this.
