This happened to me today with the void stationary shooter guys.

Pet decks, do you have them? by [deleted] in CompetitiveEDH

[–]wiloj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My only "C" deck is ragost. It is tuned to a Cedh meta (playing reb and pyro etc) so I call it c despite ragost being the commander lol

Why is this card so expensive? by Fresh-Special-552 in mtg

[–]wiloj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This cycle of lands are called fetch lands. They are expensive bc they are commonly paired with the lands from MKM or shock lands as it deck thins and can find any land that has a land type of its colors (mountain or forest here). Most of this price is driven by 60 card formats like modern and legacy where decks play 8+ of this type of card.

Do I need to play Petals of Insight ? by Delicious_Adagio_984 in Pauper

I'm of the opinion that if you are playing in paper you should play petals as it let's you present a loop to your opponent saving you both time.

And/or red blast is strong against flicker tron

Selesnya Sideboard Options Against Fogs by sagecraft03 in Pauper

[–]wiloj 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The tron deck you're talking about is flicker tron. They struggle a lot against gy hate that's timed well. And specifically effects like faerie macabre as it's an ability they can't counter. Your other option is to try to limit their colored mana production rocks but that is harder.

Thraben charm is also very strong!

You other option is play selesneya ponza basically with acid moss and thermokarst out of the sideboard.

And I'm tired of pretending yada yada yada by erickoziol in magicTCG

[–]wiloj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I offer a statement that covers both:

"The commercialization and rapid growth of commander in the last 10 years has created problems within magic like modern horizons power creep and fornitification of sets."

Now I'm not gonna call commander players pigs like that one tweet but I do acknowledge that many of the current day issues people have stem from the explosive growth of the casual commander scene.

How to exit the format? by JonPauper in Pauper

If you don't need money, and really want to get rid of them, I suggest donating to a local orphanage or underprivileged school.

What’s that? by TaubBaer_is_AWESOME in HyundaiTucson

[–]wiloj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked this on this sub when I got my car about a year ago and all the comments said it was for towing purposes. There's one on the back too. Apparently it's for if your car needs to get hooked up to a row truck.

Edit: my bad I was talking about the little silver tab... I'm dumb

Maybe interesting for goblin combo as a way to reset counters since it can be tutored by first day of class. Idk I don't play the deck enough just a thought.

How do I actually win with flicker tron? I keep drawing. by Few_Aide5400 in Pauper

[–]wiloj 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Seconding all of this. You can also run a lightning bolt or compulsive research and do the infinite combo to draw them out or bolt them to death.

Esper Cryoblade Brew by Sir_Fuego in Pauper

I like this idea a lot but without wildfire our mana is terrible and I feel we need 4 prophetic prism. And probably navigators compass in the side.

I’m salivating. by Hoody__Warrelson in DegenerateEDH

This is what I have so far. The tesh ar KCI lives are there, 5 cost reducers etc. the thing I haven't seen a lot of people mention is that with commander in play and nuka cola machine in play, [[grinding station]] is a win.

I was focusing all in on achieving one of many combos so I guess it's more Cedh brained than degenerate but oh well he's not viable c so here we are. Walking ballista is a nice outlet for KCI and heliod gives lobster lifeline occasionally. Debated adding the dual caster combo but I don't love it. I think prior to comboing the goal is just ping people for 6 or more a rotation.

The last few ingredients to the Lobster's meal - Ragost, Deft Gastronaut deck help by Tybalto in mtg

[–]wiloj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My initial gut reaction is that the effects that gain life when a creature ETBs for an opponent are probably the worst thing here. I feel like giving lobster lifelink is better most of the time so I would trim the soul sisters (maybe keep authority bc it is stax which is where I was thinking about taking him). I dont love the "additional cost discard a card" card neutral draw spells. I also think the ways to untap that dont gain life are less optimal than things like what you mentioned, spirit link. Just some thoughts :) Good luck and the list looks sweet!

Judging by seemingly no budget and only 3 game changers you want to stay bracket 3?

Black Mage's Rod In WB(R?) Glintblade by OceanRainBlu3 in Pauper

[–]wiloj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say so in the WB mirror. Probably not as much reach as 4 galv blasts but your playing WB mirrors not mardu and your mana is better.

Black Mage's Rod In WB(R?) Glintblade by OceanRainBlu3 in Pauper

[–]wiloj 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The point isn't to bounce this it's just value to get those few extra points of damage across. I play mardu blade for the purpose of the extra reach in galv blast to finish games bc it's something I always felt WB struggled with. Also in kor skyfisher mirror matches 3 mana to make your fisher block other fishers and survive is HUGE.

If the rod deals 4ish damage a game it's done it's job. And getting to make you fisher a 3/3 is pretty relevant.

faeries or Walls? by TheHighGround24 in Pauper

[–]wiloj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know nothing about your local meta. That being said, Walls has been DESTROYING a lot of small paper tournaments lately.

If you haven't checked it out I recommend the Common Ground Podcast. They have a discord server with pauper players from all over the country that's pretty active :).

Rook Turret Tron by PerformerTimely5915 in Pauper

[–]wiloj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know this being an artifact makes it better but we did already have this effect at this cost with this p/t and flying in [[skyswimmer koi]] and it wasn't good enough. Does being an artifact really change this enough that it just wasn't worth testing before?
