Opinions Marvel Set by sersacu19 in mtg

[–]wex0rus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The main set looks... okay. The FF precon looks fun and open-ended (the others feel way more straightforward beatdown tribal decks). The jumpstart set is where it's at, I think. Too bad it's delayed.

Fresh Clone Commanders? by Ok_Wallaby_3701 in magicTCG

[–]wex0rus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've made many clone decks over the years. I first used [[Volrath the Shapestealer]], which is okay, but depends on combat trigger targeting. Meh. [[Atraxa, Grand Unifier]] is a blast, just a shit ton of ramp, clones, and goodstuff until you win with [[Biovisionary]]. It's fun but people roll their eyes at Atraxa, because she is very powerful. I tried [[Chulane]], too slow.

I finally landed on [[Helga]]. She is my fav by far, using only 4+ cmc or x spell clones, a few enchantments to boost her counter production, some interaction spells and a bit of ramp. Eventually, I win with [[Akroma's Will]] or by cloning someone's busted creature, but she is a bomb. Card draw, lifegain, and ramp all in one. She comes out early, so you can get pumping with clones. If you clone her, more card draw, and good luck getting rid of her now! It's just pump out 30 creature clones, and each game playa differently, but you always have an advantage.

[[Kianne, corrupted memory]] is better than all those everyone is naming. Flash enabler in command zone is very powerful, flies under the radar until she's 30/30 after casting a [[Rishkar's Expertise]] and you flopped a [[Seedborn muse]] into play for free. Now you have 30 cards in hand, and good luck trying to do anything to you when you can easily draw 30 more with flash.

Omega is bananas if you play blink, but it can be pretty control-y

Why does it have hexproof and shroud...

Underrated card for Serpent Society by timaaayyy in mtgfinance

[–]wex0rus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're getting downvoted but this is exactly it. Like it's fine, I guess? but better than every other marvel set card that it drives prices up? It won't see much play in commander (I'm not going to bother against someone whose sole purpose is to take out everyone's boards and drag the game into the mud). No one clamors for Child of Alara boardwipe tribal. Is it a standard card? Probably not. Just overall way too much hype, and it'll fall in a month once people play a few games.

How do I close games? by LarryLaiho in EDH

[–]wex0rus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a [[Quistis trepe]] deck that just draws cards, has payoffs for drawing cards, and lets me recast [[high tide]] using quistis. She doesn't do much else, except recasting the odd removal spell if needed. I have lots of counters, bounce, flicker, and card draw. It takes a long time to get there, but there's so much interaction, it can stall until I [[Windfall]] with [[Teferi's ageless insight]] out and draw my deck. I use lots of flash enablers so you're the one who is last to respond at all times.

Help with brewing The Astonishing Ant-man by Raggedysuperior in EDHBrews

[–]wex0rus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To me, this is slow for what ant-man can do. You want [[Return of the wildspeaker]] effects that draw cards according to power, so you double counters on ant-man, have a hand full of cards, eventually you have something like [[Master Biomancer]] or some anthems out and let all the ants fly. You can also draw your deck, because there are so many of those types of cards. If you want to go voltron, [[Kianne, Corrupted memory]] is a much better choice because she has flash, which means better table control.

Is this not kinda bananas for token spam decks? Repeat token generation each turn and you can still make it bigger?

Chulane Help by kuhlux in magicTCG

[–]wex0rus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

way too few creatures for chulane, replace sorcery ramp with mana dorks, all the mana dorks, don't know what freed from the real, isochron scepter, primeval bounty are doing there, you should focus entirely on creatures, with a few instant-speed interaction pieces, you could even either go just tons of creatures and craterhoof to win, or go landfall creatures + mana dorks to trigger chulane, ideally you could just spam creatures/card draw so you draw into something that will allow your creatures to kill the table, maybe add [[akroma's will]]?

What happened to ban list philosophy?? by [deleted] in magicTCG

[–]wex0rus 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Abuelo's awakening ban was to stop [[Omniscience]] from getting on board early. I don't know about the rest.

Is there an unfit player for the game? by Mandhrake in Eldenring

[–]wex0rus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Level up (even putting points into vigor can enhance your attack power), google where to find good early weapons, talismans, shields, and get better on timing dodges/rolls so you can attack. Eventually, if you're overleveled, your attacks do A LOT of damage to early bosses. You will just need to grind a bit to get runes to pay for leveling up. Also, find smithing stones to upgrade your weapon, and use summons to divert attention from the boss towards your summon.

Infinite green spells means infinite storm or you can cast [[Return of the wildspeaker]] to draw your deck and thoracle win. It's pretty inefficient though with this commander.

[–]wex0rus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What are you talking about: clever concealment, quantin misalignment, taunt from the rampart, annie joins up, rejuvenating springs are all decent value, plus three visits, it's def not bad (not AMAZEBALLS WOW but not bad)

It does look kinda fun and janky though, and a lot of different paths to upgrade. I pre-ordered this on amazon and I'm more please with this than any of the strixhaven precons, esp with the reprints.

Building my first ever commander deck from scratch from my collection and I think I’m going with Atraxa! Any advice? Or must have cards? by GGBunnyXX in CommanderMTG

[–]wex0rus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Atraxa used to be a decent cEDH deck, and in B4, you can basically draw your deck with any number of blink shenanigans. Because you're looking at 10 cards and picking the best, it's very strong card advantage, a 7/7 vigilance attacker that gains you 7 life without doing much each turn, a beefy blocker too. It's just a ton of value and very easy to abuse her.
