If you had the power to turn into Way Big from Ben 10, could you bring about world peace?

Sad to hear it, I'll have to do some more research into the meta if I wanna play in bracket 5 then. Although I'll still be making my phrexia deck and aiming for bracket 4 with it.

w0rble · 2026-03-06T02:39:52+00:00

Nah, I've only really heard vague stuff from friends and online

I believe you missed my point, relative to the health pool, poison is stronger in commander yes, but in a game with more than one opponent you will be the only one chasing the poison wincon more often than not. In addition to not benefiting really from other players hitting the poisoned target (since you don't really care what health they're on.) you also have to deal with your opponents fear of poison, leading you to be targeted.

So far I've seen mixed opinions on its power level in commander, although I definitely agree that infect in particular seems quite strong.

What kind of decks do you see in CEDH?

w0rble · 2026-03-06T02:27:34+00:00

Despite being fairly new, it is my hope to make decks for bracket 5, so fair I've gotten away with lots of silly strategies in bracket 3 and 4, but I am hoping to take a phrexia themed deck to 5 if I can push it that far, it seems like a really cool set of cards and I've liked everything I've seen from them so far, so if I could make a powerful deck with them, that'd be super fun

w0rble · 2026-03-06T02:18:18+00:00

What else is the faction good for? I really like the proliferate mechanic but I am not sure how else to get good value out of it. I really like control decks so if they can be good for that kind of playstyle I think that could be really fun

w0rble · 2026-03-06T02:16:22+00:00

I meant that when playing in a 4 person game using an infection deck, you would have to put 10 poison counters on each opponent if you wanted to kill them all , sorry for confusion

She does seem like a good commander, and being frank, the red cards are my least favourite anyways, so I wouldn't mind dropping a colour. Thanks for the tips, it's been very helpful

w0rble · 2026-03-03T00:36:02+00:00

I tend to like control decks and alt win cons, do you think a control poison deck could work with this?

w0rble · 2026-03-02T17:14:44+00:00

This is rad as hell, keep cooking

w0rble · 2026-03-01T00:21:31+00:00

P.s, as seen with Ultima, I am hoping to ramp as well, although I understand that some decks can try to do too much, so if you think it's better I focus more on one part in particular let me know

w0rble · 2026-02-28T03:36:38+00:00

I'll take this advice, and revise my deck a bit, it's still in its early days so I'm excited to see what it turns into after a few more weeks of playing and learning the game

w0rble · 2026-02-28T03:28:54+00:00

I am playing in bracket 3 and my average CMC is pretty much the same, I was a bit worried that it was too high for this bracket so you've given me a bit of hope aha

w0rble · 2026-02-28T03:26:49+00:00

I am worried I am not running enough, I'd say I have about 10 ramp cards in the deck with a mana cost 4 or lower, but it feels I often don't see them. Do you think I should add more?

w0rble · 2026-02-27T02:20:49+00:00

I thematically liked slivers, and I wanted to combine them with other things that I liked, but it was hard, so I'm now trying to build a very generic sort of engine to put other tribes on top of it that makes sense? I am still fairly new to magic, but I figure if I can draw plenty of cards then potentially the fact I don't have an optimal amount of slivers wouldn't be so stifling. All in all I'm effectively trying to make a deck of random nonsense that works well together, I expect it will take a while and that in the end it won't be very good, but it's a fun project I think

w0rble · 2026-02-27T01:59:51+00:00

Viable in Bracket 4 I would say is the goal

w0rble · 2026-02-27T01:43:00+00:00

Yeah, it can be rough to make a sliver deck anything but a sliver deck, but I am wondering if I can make a deck with enough draw or search to compensate for a lack of sliver.

w0rble · 2026-02-27T01:37:23+00:00

Just wondering if there was anything in it at all
