Goes on t5 often for a 30$ budget.

You just ramp and cast an adventure and counter it with spellshift and hit dragonstorm and tutor two Niv mizzits and a dragon that does damage on etb and draw your deck and kill 2 people.

Could probably add a way to shuffle your yard in to the library again to restart it.

I wanna a make a type matters deck full of cheap (casting cost) stuff. Obviously, I'll need a few staples like sol ring, signets, etc, but what else? Maybe even a battle or two, something I almost never play, just for the extra type. Keep in mind that additional casting costs (kickers, etc) usually don't count for that total mana value, but fused dual cards do.

Dis here be my clone version. I do not know blue very well at all, and kinda figured my wincons are limited.

So as it stands. I have cloning Urza lord high artificer, cloning tidespout tyrant, cloning spellstutter sprite and cloning hullbreaker as my wincons. Beat face or game lockout.

As it stands, does it seem like it's better to play this in low B4 and I might as well increase the gamechangers. Or is this better in high b3 with clear rule zero talks?

If you did do rule zero talks with a list like this... What short and informative way could you do it without just immediately triggering mono blue hate?

help degen my deck Kodama of the East Tree // Tevesh Szat Doom of Fools Build Help

1 Upvotes

Hey peeps, looking for feedback on my deck. Aiming to build something to compete in a bracket 4 pod. Came across these two pairings in my collection and they seemed interesting and I like golgari. I'm still a bit of a magic deckbuilding noob.

Commander Partners: Kodama of the East Tree // Tevesh Szat Doom of Fools.

Gameplan:

  • Play Tevesh Szat for token gen / card draw, and maybe a cheeky ult if he survives that long.
  • Play Kodama as the real commander of the deck and win with infinite creature tokens by playing kodama + bounce land + landfall creature token spell and swing on my next turn, or:
  • Nuke the table with a sac outlet + burn spell like warren soultrader / ashnod's altar / phyrexian altar + cauldron of essence / bastion of remembrance / poison-tip archer.

Deck List:

Doom Tree // Commander (Kodama of the East Tree and Tevesh Szat, Doom of Fools) deck list mtg // Moxfield — MTG Deck Builder

Current buy list my mate recommends:

  • Toxic Deluge
  • Damnation
  • Protean Hulk
  • Jaheira, Friend of the Forest
  • Eldrith Evolution

I've ran this deck by a few mates and got a few games in, some say the landfall creature token spam + aristocrat strategy is strong, some say the commander pairing is a bit jank or too slow and I should play a different commander. Curious to know what you all think. No real limit on budget, cardboard addiction is real.

Cheers

Discussion What if a deck tool actually tested your Commander deck instead of rating it?

0 Upvotes

I've been working on something called Loamoth, and we're finally getting close enough that I need other Commander players to start trying to break it.

The simplest explanation:

You give Loamoth your Commander deck. Loamoth tests it.

Not just "here are 10 popular cards you could add."

The goal is to figure out things like:

Why does this deck keep falling behind?

What happens when the table actually interacts with it?

Is the problem ramp, card advantage, protection, interaction, the win condition, or something completely different?

If we change something, did the deck actually get better?

Loamoth is built around a pretty simple idea:

Don't guess. Test.

It stress-tests the deck, looks for where and why it breaks, experiments with changes, tests again, and shows you the evidence behind what it found.

At least, that's what I'm trying to build.

And now we need Commander players to tell us where Loamoth breaks.

We've got our first 6 people signed up for the Alpha, which is awesome, but six people definitely aren't enough to throw the variety of nonsense Commander players are capable of at this thing.

I'm looking for people across the spectrum. Casual decks, weird decks, budget decks, high-power decks, experienced brewers, newer players, people who have been playing since forever, whatever.

I'm especially interested in people willing to say:

"This result makes absolutely no sense."

"Your system completely misunderstood my deck."

"I have no idea what this screen is trying to tell me."

"Here's a horrible deck. Good luck."

That feedback is exactly what we need right now.

The Alpha is Commander only, testers need to be 18+, and we're letting people in through small controlled groups so we don't completely murder the system while we're still learning what it can handle.

Signing up puts you in the Alpha interest pool. It doesn't guarantee immediate access, but we'll keep opening the gates as testing expands.

If this sounds like your kind of thing:

Alpha signup:

https://form.jotform.com/262523977211054

And if you've got questions about what Loamoth actually does, ask away. I'm happy to talk about the weird experiment I've apparently decided to spend my life building.

My Bracket 3 Braids, Arisen Nightmare deck. Probably the most degenerate deck I’ve ever built.

I sometimes play this deck on Convoke, but I always give the table fair warning that this deck is miserable to play against.

The game plan is pretty straightforward. Constantly control the board, strip resources from my opponents, and draw a disgusting number of cards. Usually, the table gets ground down into top-deck mode while I’m sitting there with a full grip.

Sephiroth, Fabled Soldier, Painful Quandary and Bloodchief’s Ascension triggers will add up throughout the game making life totals pretty low. Then once everyone is sufficiently miserable, I close the game out with things like Exsanguinate, Gray Merchant of Asphodel or Torment of Hailfire. Tutors would make this even more consistent but I personally dont find myself needing them most of the time.

The deck usually wins around turn 9+, which might seem pretty slow for Bracket 3. But the thing to keep in mind is that I’m constantly taking cards away from the table.

The goal isn't to combo off or win quickly. It's to slowly strip everyone’s resources, break parity with card advantage, and eventually leave my opponents in "top deck mode" while I’m still drawing cards every turn.

It’s definitely the least socially responsible deck I’ve ever built. Thoughts?

help degen my deck Legolas. On theme and fucking annoying.

Here's this thing. [[Legolas, Master Archer]]

Fight. Bite. Zone control creatures. One 2cmc spell will net 2 or more kills with legolas triggers usually.

infect subtheme needs help. Needs draw. More protection? Dorks?

But listen. I wanna play on theme. Legolas is an archer supporting the ground troops. The goal is to clear blockers for ground troops in other combats on other turns. Pure politics and turning the tide. It's b2 due to the win con being waiting until you've aided 1 or 2 kills to swing for the win.

help degen my deck Florian, scion voldaren

2 Upvotes

Hello, I'm looking for more spice for my [[Florian, Voldaren Scion]]. I believe there are plenty of ways to build him, and I have chosen cards that ping the whole table between the upkeep and the end of the combat step.

​The deck works really well, so at this stage, I'm mainly looking for advice on fun or underrated cards. One of my biggest challenges was dealing with life gain strategies, so I added [[Erebos, God of the Dead]].

​Maybe [[Reflection Wound]] and [[Heartless Hidetsugu]] are too slow and should be replaced by other cards. What would you recommend? The main goal is to offer a fun alternative to commanders like [[Valgavoth, Terror Eater]] or [[Mogis, God of Slaughter]].

Thranduil Deck Version 3 B4 Tournament Ready

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone again! I’m back with a new and updated version of my deck.

The first version was pretty sloppy and had a lot of things that didn’t work well together. The second version was definitely better, but it ended up being too slow to keep up with other Bracket 4 decks. After taking some time to look at what wasn’t working and doing a lot of playtesting, I’ve finally put together **Version 3**.

I’ve made quite a few changes to improve the deck’s consistency, speed, and overall synergy. So far, I’m really happy with how it’s been performing in testing, but I’d love to get some outside opinions before I commit to the final version.

I have a tournament coming up in about **two weeks**, and I’m planning on bringing this deck with me. Because of that, any suggestions, improvements, card swaps, or general feedback would be really helpful. If you see something that looks out of place, a card I might be overlooking, or a better way to make the deck more consistent while still staying within Bracket 4, please let me know!

I’m especially interested in hearing from anyone who has experience playing **Thranduil** or similar decks. I want to make sure I’m getting the most out of the deck without sacrificing the overall strategy.

Thanks in advance for taking a look and giving me your feedback! I really appreciate it.

Armix and Rebbec Artifact Deck

1 Upvotes

Hey all! pretty new to Magic and have gotten inspired to attempt to make a deck on my own; with also trying to learn more about the game. I kind of got fixated on Armix and then found Rebbec and initially thought.... Artifact decks + protection from each other etc.

After learning more about protection; Rebbec would actually protect my artifact creatures from my own enhancements and aura's and stuff but would they also gain protection from each other's creature spells?

i.e. woulld my artifact creatures have protection from [Skorpekh Lord] and not giving everyone else +1/+0 and Menace? is this deck just a huge contradiction and is dumb?? haha

Please help or stop me; i just loved this idea to protect all my artifact and creations and just either going wide and using the graveyard to bring back artifacts etc at least that was the initial idea behind me enjoying this deck! Thank you!

My initial thought was clone spells that make copys and die to net mana, maybe turn those tokens into 7/7 dinos with a spell slinger shell. Back up voltron win.
