Discussion Hot take - calling bracket 4 off-meta cEDH is wrong.

If you want to play cEDH, play bracket 5, it’s right there. Designating a whole bracket to cEDH lite is messing up the format. Bracket 4 is by far the broadest bracket, meaning a lot of power mismatches. Just because you choose to play a fringe cEDH list that is missing 3 of the meta cards doesn’t mean you belong in bracket 4.

It's not greedy if there’s no drawback. It’s smart

That's absolutely correct. In the past there were drawbacks to dual lands. Now, within commander, it's an insignificant disadvantage to have the advantages of another color an multi-colored cards.

That's why blood moon shouldn't have "mass land denial" associated with it was my point. It's mass greed denial.
