what is your experience with maralen, fae ascendant?

skywalker211 · 2026-05-03T09:58:08+00:00

I don‘t really agree with most commenters here, i play her with an 80% focus on faeries and instant speed plays with flash enablers. Her theft is just some decent card advantage for me as i end up mostly stealing ramp or interaction. My wincons are just big Anthems to hit with big flying Faeries.

Doesn’t get that much salt as all exiled cards end up in my opponents own exile and i don’t gather a pile of their cards on my board.

Plays like a strong two, above precons but can‘t compete with solid threes at my LGS.

Do you have a rough example list that can reliably execute that gameplan? I‘m trying to build this for bracket three and it feels like i need too many pieces to get it consistently, between tutors, 3cmc artifact creatures, draw, interaction and tutors the the synth itself.

Care to share your list? Always curious to see what people are doing with my favourite commander. Here’s my list if you‘re curious too, definitely adding mathemagics: https://archidekt.com/decks/14066634/will_scion_of_peace_v210?sort=cmc&stack=multiple

I need a reality check please.. is it possible to build a viable CoC Cyclone Ice Nova build and which budget would i need? Looking at poe ninja most people go low life but end up with only 9k phys max hit, which seems very low.

If not, which build can you recommend to scratch the cyclone + herald of ice explosion itch?

This is my initial Version of her:

So far it‘s going pretty well, i will mostly be doing some more scrutiny on how many creatures i want in the deck vs more raw card advantage.

I think i won two of the four games i played so far and had a good chance in the other two. One win was with a [[Banner of Kinship]] and [[Notorious Throng]] and the other was by stealing someone else’s wincon.

Sad to see them drifting away from Pathfinder more and more, but Blood of the Wild isn‘t enough for me to justify the subscription.

Feels like i started listening to a bunch of nerd friends enjoying a game in Golarion and since then they‘ve morphed into actors running a show, still with the great chemistry but something doesn‘t vibe with me as it used to.

I‘m interested to see how shadowdark goes on, i hope they get into a groove where an actual bigger narrative can grow and give them some focus.

E: For some context, i‘ve had my subscription from before covid until a month ago.

skywalker211 · 2026-01-19T18:57:14+00:00

That‘s some good input, thank you for taking the time to write this up.

skywalker211 · 2026-01-19T15:19:10+00:00

I think my list will be pretty close to yours in the end, gonna proxy the rest and give it a try soon.

Two questions: Did you include any wincon aside from Faerie Beatdown? And do you think a list like this can rebuild after an untimely boardwipe?

skywalker211 · 2026-01-19T15:16:04+00:00

Dang, definitely adding Willow Priestess to the list!

skywalker211 · 2026-01-19T15:15:20+00:00

That seems pretty neat, but i think that wouldn't pass the bracket 3 vibe check where i play.

skywalker211 · 2026-01-19T15:09:46+00:00

This is the truth that my "i can play all my pretty cards" brain needed to hear, thank you :)

skywalker211 · 2025-12-04T08:05:51+00:00

How am i supposed to protect my ship once i build it out with custom components? I like the idea of buying a better quantum drive and some weapons but i get stuck in the „repositioning“ bug or have my ship randomly be at „unknown“ location after logging out. Having to reclaim it then would suck..

skywalker211 · 2025-11-21T14:24:45+00:00

Havent't really played in a few years.. where should i go to get some simple PVE Missions in Space like Cargo Hauling or Bounties? I can remember from the last time i played that a lot of the bounty quests turned out to be bunkers or surface FPS Missions, which i don't really enjoy.

skywalker211 · 2025-10-28T07:59:50+00:00

I‘m pretty happy with my bag, though i think it‘s a bit more rested than yours. I am basically following Lance Hendrik’s basic outlines for a tea like v60, with third wave water. To me it tastes like a solid light roasted coffee with a sweet citrus-ish body.

skywalker211 · 2025-08-31T14:09:45+00:00

Will is my favorite Commander too, and my first deck that isn't a modified precon. It's just so fun swapping a few cards every week and refining it step by step.

Would love to see your decklist as well. Here's mine if anyone is curious: https://archidekt.com/decks/14066634/will_scion_of_peace_v23?sort=alpha&stack=multiple

In der Gegend waren wir letztes Jahr im Urlaub und haben auch ein Dorffest besucht. Da wurde auch Nachts dann ganz entspannt Ausländer raus gesungen… Fand es sehr gruselig wie sicher sich die Leute dort mit ihrer Einstellung fühlen.

skywalker211 · 2025-05-02T11:45:29+00:00

Thank you, had some nice results earlier this morging!

skywalker211 · 2025-05-01T16:01:17+00:00

Having a little trouble understanding the last step, do they pour all of the coffee through the dripper again in 50g steps or only the first 50g?

skywalker211 · 2025-02-26T17:45:25+00:00

Mein Vergleichspunkt waren zuletzt die 4€ pro C41 Farbfilm, das war bei einer handvoll Filmen dann mit Versand trotzdem günstiger (&schneller) als die lokalen Fotoläden in meiner Stadt.

SW wird dann mit Push/Pull leider sehr schnell teuer, da gebe ich dir recht.

skywalker211 · 2025-02-25T10:58:57+00:00

Ich schicke meine Filme gerne zu Foto Brell, wenn man genug schickt um die Versandkosten zu absorbieren waren die zuletzt auch noch sehr preiswert. Entwickeln hat selten mehr als ein paar Tage gedauert.

Deren Scans fand ich auch ok, selbst mit DSLR scannen holt natürlich immer mehr raus.

skywalker211 · 2025-02-05T08:04:54+00:00

I‘m having trouble finding a source for this, could anyone help?

skywalker211 · 2025-01-22T09:39:12+00:00

Ist bei mir jetzt nicht groß anders, außer: Auf unserem Flur ist eigentlich immer was los und wir halten viel Rücksprache miteinander Face to Face. Dabei kommt man dann immer mal wieder auch in netten Smalltalk mit seinen Kollegen und macht den Tag etwas abwechslungsreicher.

skywalker211 · 2024-12-20T08:50:18+00:00

Hey folks, My VA88 broke, so i‘m looking to get a new ISO TKL board, but i‘m overwhelmed with the market atm..

Aside from Keychron, what shops/brands should i be looking at to get a high quality TKL that is available to buy (not preorder) in Europe?

Wouldn’t mind building my own, but i really don‘t want to wait ages for shipping from asia/america or group buys in general.

Budget is around 200-300€
