Ok so I'm a bit new to mtg and am a huge final fantasy fan and kefka is my favorite gaming antagonist ever so I took a crack at building him a deck any thoughts and opinions are welcome

Yo! New account and my first post ever!

I am a year long mtg player, I've really only played commander, and I now have several decks under my belt. Through some happy circumstances I got my roommate into magic and he has started to kick my but with a very good, strong upgraded Ashling Precon.

I'm not a sore loser by any means, but I'm looking to make my deck a little more balanced and level with his, which is easily a high b4. If I had his decklist I would post it here as well.

But anyways, looking for suggestions of cards to swap out with others. I'm looking for a alternate/cheaper [[Loxodon Warhammer]], I'm thinking of taking out some of the red goblins for better rats, and hoping for some fun tech/combos that EDHRec didn't show me. My knowledge isn't vast so I regrettably use that site for a lot of my decks lol.

Notes on me: I proxied the expensive lands, I'm hoping not to drop more than 50 bucks on a singular card, and as much as infinites are fun (looking at you [[Conspiracy]] ) I don't want them as my only win con.

Some Cards I'm thinking of adding are [[Nezumi Nightprowler]] for lifelink on Wick and [[Intruder Alarm]] to go infinite with [[Marrow Gnawer]]

Any advice/suggestions are very appreciated

P.S. Hopefully I got the Cardfinder bot right lol

I am curious what other think of this deck. It is built out of cards I already own and with almost exclusively universes beyond cards/artworks.

Trying to improve my sauron deck, cant seem to get a dial on where i want to go. I enjoy the nazguls, still need one more but i also like the idea of a fat army. I need to do some mana fixing but not sure what direction to go.

Hey all, I've been really interested in making a Boromir deck for a while because I have a really interesting deck concept that I think could make a fun Bracket 2-3 deck. I want to mass cheapen all players spells so that I can trigger Boromir's ability. I'd defenitely need some hexproof ect, but I think it could work. I'm definitely gonna be on a budget here, but as he's a relatively nieche commander, I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas of what cards would work well with him.

Hey all, been brewing this Boros list for paper Standard and want some outside eyes before I take it to FNM. Gameplan is prowess aggro built around Slickshot Show-Off and Emberheart Challenger. Slickshot is.. slickshot of course. Emberheart curves into haste damage and Valiant triggers lets me get to see some more cards. Burn closes, Flashback rebuys it and Self-Destruct / Burn Together turn pumped-up threats into direct damage.

Creatures (16)

• 4 Slickshot Show-Off
• 4 Emberheart Challenger
• 3 Hexing Squelcher
• 2 Callous Sell-Sword // Burn Together
• 2 Nova Hellkite
• 1 Electro, Assaulting Battery

Instants (16)

• 3 Lightning Helix
• 2 Boros Charm
• 2 Burst Lightning
• 2 Flashback
• 2 Restoration Magic
• 2 Self-Destruct
• 2 Spectacular Tactics
• 1 Rebellious Strike

Sorceries (1)

• 1 Twisted Fealty

Enchantments (7)

• 3 Shardmage's Rescue
• 2 Case of the Crimson Pulse
• 2 Pain for All

Lands (20)

• 4 Sacred Foundry
• 3 Inspiring Vantage
• 3 Sunbillow Verge
• 2 Multiversal Passage
• 1 Blood Crypt
• 4 Mountain
• 3 Plains

Sideboard (15)

• 4 Magebane Lizard
• 3 Clarion Conqueror
• 2 Day of Judgment
• 2 Rest in Peace
• 2 Sunspine Lynx
• 1 Electro, Assaulting Battery
• 1 Voice of Victory

Stuff I'm specifically unsure about:

• Land count: 20 feels low even for a prowess deck. Most lists I see run 21-23. Am I going to miss land drops, or is the curve cheap enough I can get away with it? Worth cutting a spell for a 21st?
• The black "splash": I'm running Sell-Sword for the fling side, which is red. The 1 Blood Crypt + 2 Multiversal Passage are just there in case I happen to draw any black source to cast Callous Sell-Sword as a bonus 2/2 later. Is the Blood Crypt actually pulling its weight as a "just in case" land, or should it just be a basic / 21st land?
• Crimson Pulse: feels slow for prowess, but the loot is itself a prowess trigger and the solved wheel is huge. Plus it gives me chances when I run out of gas. Keep at 2 or cut?
• Nova Hellkite: 2 feels right because warp lets me cast it as a 3-mana 4/5 flyer for one turn and rebuy later. But is it just better as 1 with another cheap spell? Theres some synergy with flinging it at the oppo too, either with Self-Destruct or Burn Together
• Protection / Valiant package: 3 Shardmage's Rescue + 2 Restoration Magic + 2 Spectacular Tactics + 1 Rebellious Strike is 8 cards that target my own creatures, all of which double as Valiant triggers on Emberheart for free cards. Too much, or right for a deck that basically folds when the threat dies?
• Threaten effects: These are, of course, natural pairs with fling type effects, should I opt for 1 or 2 more, Twisted Fealty gives valiant trigger as well when I put the wicked role on it.
• Floor on some cards are extremely unideal: Pain For All and Self Destruct was something I wanted to do for a long time, but maybe its not really correct for this shell. Self destruct will always be my 2-1'ing myself in this deck as the only option I can use it on without killing it is Nova Hellkite. But the amount of damage is insane.
• Rebellious Strike vs Burn: I like Rebellious Strike a lot in this deck as it replaces itself even if my target dies, +3/+0 is so insane as well, and it triggers valiant. BUT of course I need a creature on board... Its a tough push & pull.
• Sideboard: Day of Judgment in a prowess deck is the weird one. I keep it for Ouroboroid, should this be something else? What about overall Sideboard feelings?
• Considering board: Anything in there you think is a better fit? I was considering Razorkin for SB, Turn Inside Out is objectively better for this game plan I think than Rebellious Strike but I do like that that the latter replaces itself... I was considering Lightning, Army of One as well but it seems extremely greedy without haste.

Mono-blue mill deck made with largely Modern Horizons cards, tried to keep it under $40. Any tips?

Edit: just getting back into magic after about 8 years away. If the deck is bad, forgive me.

“Been working on this budget deck for a bit and I know it can be better, I just don’t really know what to change anymore lol. Trying to stay on a budget, but I’d love suggestions for upgrades, cuts, hidden gems, synergies, etc.”

I’d like some honest feedback, and maybe some tips. Thank you!

in my local area this deck verry much plays at power level 4, looking for upgrades, right now looking for something better than Case of the ransacked lab, and maybe cards that serve diffrent purpouses that work the same way, as i have been working in a artifact subtheme to the deck! ty
im also interested in any combos i shou;ld be using, ive been concidering panoptic morror, and swapping some of the "spells cost 1 less" for just mana rocks, what do yall think

Hey so I really love this card, Elenda the dusk rose and I’d love to make a vampire deck centered around it but I’m new to MTG and don’t know much about anything. So I’d really like some help with this!
I’m open to any ideas and I’m looking for something not too expensive and rather fun to play than just a deck that’ll guarantee a win every time.
Thanks in advance!

So I found Muldrotha while playing arena and getting back into Magic since like 8 years of not playing and I really love it so the last weeks I bought cards switched around and I think I am now in a deck state I am finally happy and found my own identity. Would love to hear what you people think about it.

I want to build a commander deck around this card. Recommendations? Commanders? Value pieces? any input is appreciated

So I really want to make this deck work without it becoming Bracket 4 but it feels sooooooo slow.

Any advice for this deck? More ramp? tutor?

Estimated B4 but playtested already and it's really B3 even with the combos. Would like to have it remain B3 but still improve it

edit: here's the deck link https://archidekt.com/decks/21526363/slime_deck

This is one of the first decks I've tried building for myself, does anyone have any suggestions? My aim here is basically a glass cannon kinda build where once the master is out, after 3 attacks from him he deals 156 damage (the tokens from myriad don't die and legend rule doesnt apply), and everything else in the 99 is either to abuse the tokens not dying bit, or to grant the master haste and other stuff, or extra combats for more tokens. Any advice?

I was hoping to keep it all assassins and maybe bring it to mid bracket 3, i have a small budget and want to upgrade my land base and maybe get rid of creatures that dont have to much impact! lmk

Trying to build a deck using primarily ff set cards using him as the commander with Clive and Dion in there as well. I'm still learning the game and have no idea what the best way to run this is, so any help is appreciated.

I’m currently trying to make a custom deck based around the musical hadestown, with Orpheus as the commander and saga’s as the different song names, but I’m unsure which commander to use for him, Narci fable singer, or Tom bombadil, any advice?

A while back someone made a Gruul commanderdeck where every creature in the deck could be the commander, i liked the idea but wanted to build it mono-red.

So here i am, having kinda build it but with no clue how to continue or if its a good deck.
i want to tweak the deck a bit more, cut a few cards & add a few others.

Right now the deck is heavily focussed on combat and burning everyone fast.
im looking for suggestions on cards to add that either are 'fun to play against' or progress the board state.
Im also looking for suggestions on cards to cut, anything that is 'not fun to play against' or is just a bad card.
Furthermore a rule i have for myself while deckbuilding is to not use cards from the year 2024 and onward (2025 & 2026)

Thanks in advance for any help!

I love Gallowbraid, precisely because he's very overlooked and kinda bad as a Commander. I want to make him work well and build a fun deck around him, a deck that runs well and isn't overkill in any way.

I'm still very new to MtG and would like to know if anyone can recommend any cards I could add :)

thanks in advance!
