/u/bboomslang on RC discussion about cEDH.

Yep, especially in the light of two actual RC members (unlike Shivam, who is only CAG) being highest ranked judges, of course they put competitive as equal to tournament. It only makes sense for them. And to be fair, tournaments are brought up in discu…

/u/bboomslang on Power Level Wednesday!: Ask r/EDH what’s your deck’s power level? – April 22, 2020

http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/nicol-bolas-jank-lord/

Commander: [[Nicol Bolas, the Ravager]]

It is a mostly standard Grixis shell taken from competetive grixis lists that run top-heavy spells (like grixis turns lists). It wants to win with [[Nicol Bolas, Dragon God]]’s ultimate. It utilizes infinit mana combos, preferably [[Barrin, Master Wizard]] and [[Dockside Extortionist]], or [[Ghostly Flicker]] and Dockside. It utilizes the infinit mana to dig into the deck via spells like [[Illusionist’s Stratagem]] or our commander to find the missing pieces. Best case scenario is to go for [[Planar Bridge]], tutor mutiple times for the Bolas planeswalkers, nuke opponents boards with [[Nicol Bolas, God-Pharao]] and ultimate the Dragon God for the win.

It clearly is jank, but what tier of jank?

The shells, as said, is oriented along the lines of other efficient grixis shells, which is the reason for expensive rocks and the probably weird looking mana base with only 31 lands (for cedh, that’s more on the higher number).

So marrying a competetive shell with a janky wincon – what does that make? 🙂

Jhoira and Teferi fit in nicely into the story, to, both being students at that time and being directly involved, Jhoira even being friends with K’rrik for some time.

/u/bboomslang on Flash Ban Megathread

yes, I totally agree, but I just doubt that WOTC or Hasbro actually invest there. And I especially doubt someone from the RC invests there instead of just giving numbers they grabbed from thin air.

So I am not rejecting the fact that it can be done, I just doubt the assumption that it actually is done in any way relevant to distinguish casual vs competetive EDH.

They totally have data driven decisions for other formats and the health of other formats that are tournament result based. They have a wealth of data there from MTGO, Arena and paper event results. It’s just not there for cEDH vs casual EDH and I strongly doubt they invest there just to clarify how big the cEDH movement is 😉

Or you can just pull the numbers out of your ass, which is faster and cheaper to do and hell, who cares, right? I personally never seen and played in an actual casual game of EDH. Whenever I read stuff Shivam writes about casual EDH, I am totally &quot…

/u/bboomslang on Is there any reason to use products like the Quiver or the Superhive other than to reduce wear on deckboxes?

I got me the Quiver when I went to MF Bologna, because I thought it is easier to carry than a backpack. I also have the Ultimate Guard Ammonite Backpack now, but actually I prefer the Quiver if I just want to have a selection of decks on me. It’s easy to carry, doesn’t take up lots of space and is not as bulky as the Ammonite. Grabbing decks without rummaging through the backpack blind is nice 😉 – and it forces me to be selective, because it only holds 5 EDH decks.

And come on, you have to agree, that thing has style 😉

Goes infinit with Freed from the Real if your deck can support the companion restriction, or provides infinit WBRG right away with just it and an untapper when you run it in your command zone.

Another one with „cEDH is best“ experience. We don’t play full cEDH decks all the time, but just adopting the mindset has done wonders, far less salt that way. You try to win, so that card was fair. We still play casual as heck decks from time to time …

Yeah, I kinda see it as Gitfrog in Jeskai – easier to cast even. You sculpt and try to get to the discard combo, as that will be damn hard to interact with. I really think this could have potential, especially with her low color pips. Easy to get her o…
