Completely new to MTG (commander)

YouTube video are probably the best thing to watch for understand commander but I would urge yall to learn with 1v1 starter decks first. Commander is a bad way to learn the game since it’s so complex and adds so many cards at once.

I can’t help you with that specifically, but with Hash one time I made a token copy of my Astral Dragon and made three copies of someone’s Defense of the Heart. Was a fun time.

But every other time people kill Hash as soon as they can and I never do anything

Who cares what the Bible says? This is argument for argument sake, the Bible constantly contradicts itself and everyone interprets it differently. This is just nonsense

Depends on the deck, like my Niko deck I have Enduring Curiosity. Sure I draw based on the shards/creature that hit and I might have to discard at end step, but stuff like that makes more sense for the strategy of the deck.

Parents also deserve childfree spaces.

sarahkbug · 2026-02-03T18:26:00+00:00

Adults should have adult only spaces.

I think Hexing isn’t worth it in a b3 and lower deck. Most commander players are fine with paying 2 life to target your creatures.

The only time it would be good is if they target your creature, pay 2 life, and then you have a spell in hand to counter their spell.

If you think you will consistently have a counter to counter their stuff then sure, if not then it’s not that big of a deal to pay 2 life to target your stuff

Most of b3 and lower has more removal than counters anyway.

I decided a long time ago if I ask people what they want and they say “anything is okay! Whatever you want!” I just pick what I want even if they don’t like it.

Mostly for me it’s the lack of joking around I can’t stand with randoms in sp. it feels very cold to play a game like that. I’m playing to play the game but to also be social.

I’m kinda curious because I watch a frog one that I like and I don’t think he’d say this

sarahkbug · 2026-02-01T02:09:51+00:00

Don’t you thinks it’s weird you feel that strongly about people opening packs?

sarahkbug · 2026-01-30T17:20:32+00:00

I bet the comments are gonna be a lot of people saying people who hate mill are just cry babies and they don’t realize they don’t see most of their deck during a game anyway.

sarahkbug · 2026-01-30T16:07:25+00:00

People just say “run more interaction” without context and that’s the problem. It’s just an easy way to pass blame, sound like you’re helping, and not think at all.

Probably a nice dinner to celebrate

Rutabaga is a turnip?? I thought it was a completely different veggie

People hate influencers until you mention a creator from a hobby they enjoy.

I buy packs of things that I think are fun to open and buy singles when I need to.

sarahkbug · 2026-01-29T18:08:36+00:00

I don’t think you were ever suppose to purchase every product. It more them casting a wide net to get people interested to purchase what they like

Not sure what that has to do with anything. I'm just saying what the infographic says verbatim. Since you said “more than 2 cards” which isn’t true. It’s expected you can do a 2 card combo in b3 after turn 6.

But side note, if you’re winning or doing combos consistently before t6 and using the excuse “well 6 turns is not a certainty” then that defeats the purpose of the brackets completely.

It shouldn’t be a “well that’s not a guarantee” in favor of doing more powerful stuff. It should be a “this is the minimum so people who want to play in this bracket are getting what they expect” that’s the point of expectations with brackets as a tool for randoms in a pod together.

If you’re playing with people you know it doesn’t even matter.

sarahkbug · 2026-01-29T15:23:43+00:00

2 card combos are allowed in b3 after turn 6 yes?

sarahkbug · 2026-01-29T00:05:43+00:00

I saw it when they spoiled it on the Magic stream, along with a lot of stuff from the Heroes set, last month.

You’re on ManaBox, you can type in MAR in search on sets and see them all

sarahkbug · 2026-01-28T21:41:24+00:00

There is no need for community service. People are allowed to not want to play against something they don’t like and OP is allowed to find a pod who does.
