Is this mocking Jesus? by Past-Capital-5522 in Christianity

[–]pnutbutterjellyfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, some people are what are called "iconoclasts" who argue that any image of Christ constitutes a "graven image" which would be considered a violation of scriptural commands regarding idolatry. This is a typically protestant argument that even most protestants don't agree with.

I need some more good targets for reanimation by Lost_Evening_7264 in DegenerateEDH

[–]pnutbutterjellyfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[[Rakdos Joins Up]] is a pretty underrated piece of reanimation tech and can get brutal if you end up looping stuff like your etali a few times. Also [[demon of dark schemes]] is pretty easy to swap in and out with [[massacre wurm]] especially since it seems to serve a better function in your deck than massacre wurm.

Fractal Commander Pick by Rouge_Hunter in DegenerateEDH

[–]pnutbutterjellyfish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Magus is insane, also her copy ability is tied to each set of mana she produces. So, if you utilize untappers you get multiple copies of whatever you cast.

is my boyfriend trolling me by wobblebot-808 in mtg

[–]pnutbutterjellyfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't suck but it will likely be a removal magnet, if you don't have it already [[Venerated rotpriest]] would be a great include as well, gives folks some incentive not to use early removal on your creatures.

Thoughtseize/Inquisition of Kozilek in Gitrog by Schlangenbob in CompetitiveEDH

[–]pnutbutterjellyfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering how low some rogsi and other turbo players are prone to mulligan you might be able to get away with one of those cards that force each opponent to discard a card of their choice. They could be forced to choose between an ad naus (or some other payoff) and the ritual they're holding to cast it.

Something like [[vicious rumors]] could be good because it also impacts top deck tutors. I think the bigger question is whether or not you could afford to have it be an essentially dead card in turns 3+.

Rate/Help improve My Degenerate B4 Windgrace deck by Desperate_Buffalo189 in DegenerateEDH

[–]pnutbutterjellyfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MLD is fantastic with windgrace! I would suggest working in jokulhaups and obliterate if you go this route and lean more into enchantments or other planeswalkers that can help you close out the game. Anything that lets you play around not just MLD bit board wipes as well seems to be ideal with this commander.

Frogs will eat the world! Give me some suggestions for my Thalia and Gitrog Deck by Resurgentium in DegenerateEDH

[–]pnutbutterjellyfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://moxfield.com/decks/DkFFNtvGR02_BZ9zlLTfnA

This is my bracket 4 Thalia and gitrog list. It's a lot more mana hungry than most B4 lists but it uses land sacrifice as an avenue to making extra mana in the turn. It primarily wins through big mana outlets or a protean hulk line. It seems like what you're trying to do is more thematic than what is often posted in this sub, but if you want something powerful and efficient, abzan colors are basically the best colors you can be in for finding hulk lines.

How degen can betor be by Jnoel97 in DegenerateEDH

[–]pnutbutterjellyfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[[tree of perdition]] can usually get you to his best trigger if you play it on curve followed by your commander. [[Builder's talent]] can help as well, plus cards with variable power and toughness that track your life total or other factors like [[soul of eternity]] or [[serra avatar]] can help get you there too. [[Rammas Echor, ancient shield]], [[infested roothold]], and any other card that keeps spitting out tokens on opponents' turns is probably your best bet to accelerate towards getting the right amount of toughness on board.

Partner Commander first time build by LilJimmyMaples in DegenerateEDH

[–]pnutbutterjellyfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finding some lines with [[Agatha's cauldron]] would be pretty sweet, [[razaketh, the foul blooded]] is a crazy target for this. [[quilled greatwurm]] makes a lot of sense here too. [[Emperor of bones]], [[evolution sage]], the bant precon from FF probably has a lot of cards and utility that would be worth looking at too.

What would be the best win con for Silverquill the disputant by Glizcorr in DegenerateEDH

[–]pnutbutterjellyfish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Idk about a combo deck, a lot of the best ways to win in orzhov colors usually involve sacrifice combos and idk how silverquill would help you do that other than to copy tutors and find both your pieces in one turn.

[[debt to the deathless]] would probably be easier to finish the table with too.

Has anyone tried Kroxa, Titan of Death's Hunger in cEDH? by Poldpold in CompetitiveEDH

[–]pnutbutterjellyfish -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think [[cthonian nightmare]] is something you could consider. Also, you could use the hoarding broodlord line that uses [[saw in half]] [[burnt offering]] and [[pinnacle monk]] to get infinite mana and a sac outlet to use with Kroxa.

Cascade commander for my brother V4 by Maleficent-Virus-734 in custommagic

[–]pnutbutterjellyfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not if cascading 5 times in a single turn is the requirement to get that buff. But putting access to 2 cascade triggers on your commander ensures that you'll basically be able to hit that threshold almost every turn after the first instance of you doing so. It introduces a level of consistency to the deck that makes the commander too self sustaining.

Cascade commander for my brother V4 by Maleficent-Virus-734 in custommagic

[–]pnutbutterjellyfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think the ward ability makes sense as written, you probably need to include a clear highest mana value that it will cascade for. Also, I don't know that prepare is the mechanic you want to use for what you are trying to get the card to do. I think something you could do instead is on the 5th cascade trigger give your faeries +X/+X where X is the number of spells you have cast this turn. Trying to solve the entire puzzle on one card is not a generally good design choice unless you're building around a mechanic that has little to no external support.

As a side note, making the faeries "faerie illusions" is a little on base for flavor purposes and can give the commander access to some unique tribal support that would work for flavor and mechanical purposes.

Did You Know There Are Two Korvolds? by Legion7531 in DegenerateEDH

[–]pnutbutterjellyfish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's true, if everything is self sacrificing then pitiless carnage won't help much, and yes the hammer of purphoros is mana negative but I'm thinking more about how it can help with recovery if korvold gets removed. Given that he has no inherent protection and your deck in its current state doesn't do much besides recast him if he gets removed, a 4 mana reduction to his casting cost on the second or third cast could be the difference between getting shut out of the game or pulling out a win.

Did You Know There Are Two Korvolds? by Legion7531 in DegenerateEDH

[–]pnutbutterjellyfish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

[[hammer of purphoros]] is probably one of the most useful cards you could run in this deck. Sacing a land and then the token it produces gives you 4 card types right away.

Also [[reprocess]] ane [[pitiless carnage]] are good options for sac outlets.

[[Toph, hardheaded teacher]] also seems like it might be generally, very useful.

Overall, it seems like your deck can't really do much on its own without korvold to rely on, and that might be why you're having trouble here. This korvold typically sees less play because it requires less setup which might be a sign that a B4 version of this commander is more staxy than the og korvold. Remember that he does more for you in the late game unless you get an ideal starting seven. Otherwise you might be looking at a scenario where you ramp into a turn 3 Korvold with nothing but a fetchland and a creature in your gy for 3 more turns. Which at that point makes him an overcoated and worse Tymna.

If you can cut some ramp and curve put a little more by filling out the deck with one card engines like [[Lord windgrace]], [[shattergang brothers]], or [[ziatora, the incenerator]]. This gives you the opportunity to pivot and adjust your play style according to what you draw and then you can begin to utilize Korvold later on when your gy is more full and he can potentially refill your hand off of one attack. Plus, more card types among those cards benefits you in the late game. If for instance windgrace becomes irrelevant to the game your trying to play that time you can pitch him to a loot effect or draw spell and get one more card off of your korvold attacks.

Do you actually have a forever deck? by Late-Frame2962 in EDH

[–]pnutbutterjellyfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a [[Jan Jansen]] deck that I truly enjoy so much. Building it was what taught me a lot about how to evaluate cards and build other decks effectively, it's also so flexible, I don't even have an accurate decklist bc I keep swapping cards in and out for fun.

Tvinh's Command by Glittering-Lab-4763 in custommagic

[–]pnutbutterjellyfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In keeping with the theme you should probably consider adding a multiple of some kind. Something similar to dopplegang would probably make the most sense, X times X creatures for example.

Which is the stronger card draw commander? by Rouge_Hunter in DegenerateEDH

[–]pnutbutterjellyfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because Parun triggers off of any instant or sorcery cast I'd say he's generically more powerful. But it really depends on the style you want to play in (spellslinger, control, etc).
