/u/bboomslang on PSA: It might not be worth it to build around odd CMC cards for Yennett, Cryptic Sovereign but don’t worry, she’s still great.
You are playing in the colors of top-deck-tutors. You only need some odd-cmc Wincons to cheat in, not to build the whole deck around it.

/u/bboomslang on Izzet us you are looking for?
Superfriends in Izzet Colors combine wonderfully with artifacts – especially the two Saheelis and [[Dack Fayden]]. I would go for [[Chain Veil]] and proliferate with [[Throne of Geth]] and [[Contagion Engine]] and maybe [[Contagion Clasp]] to get faste…

Well, Reweave did that already at instant speed. But now it works inbred, which could make Daretti happy.

Red Polymorph. Yay! I love Polymorph effects, and in red I think it is a neat and new one.

Yeah, If Chain Veil and Teferi stick for you to cast this, game should be already over.

/u/bboomslang on [C18] all 4 face commanders got leaked
Saheeli sounds interesting for a heavy-artifact deck, as right the turn she comes out you can drop some fatty to protect her for cheap. Or to beat face. So in 1v1 she could really be a nice way to get Blightsteel out very quickly, especially if you run a competetive rock suite. And it doesn’t work only for artifacts, so you could even use her to get Omniscience out earlier. So her as the commander and new Jhoira as one of the 99 could be fun. Cost reduction in the command zone has shown to be interesting before.

It could even make high-cost commanders like P ogenitus viable. Just build your deck to get this out fast to get a point of damage in and drop Progenitors on the board without bothering for 5 colors first.

[C18] Geode Golem
Spoiled here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsIeYTvx9U4
Geode Golem – 5
Artifact Creature – Golem
Trample
Whenever Geode Golem deals combat damage to a player, you may cast your commander from the command zone without paying its mana cost. (You still pay any additional costs.)
5/3
Sweet new tech for getting those expensive commanders out once they’ve died multiple times! Or just casting your huge commander early; going to be gross in Eldrazi Titan decks.

/u/bboomslang on If you could add any color to any commander, which color and commander would you choose?
Blue to Daretti, so his one weakness (bad card selection) would get much better. Sorry, Jhoira, but a UR Daretti would be a much better Artifact commander.

/u/bboomslang on How important is solo play to you when buying board games?
Same here – no solo, you have to be really amazing for me to buy. I do make exceptions for games I know will go down well on game night, but otherwise a solid solo mode is a must for me. I might only use it to get a feel of the game before teaching, or…

Which hashing algorithm is best for uniqueness and speed? Ian Boyd’s answer (top voted) is one of the best comments I’ve seen on Stackexchange.

/u/bboomslang on Are there actual rulebook "designers" that just focus on rule writing? If not, should there be?
You and Rodney ARE the best, hands down. Whenever I see a game covered by either of you guys, I am happy, because I know I can get even through a bad rulebook. Especially if it is some kickstarter, for me a rules video from you is a clear sign of quali…

Are there actual rulebook "designers" that just focus on rule writing? If not, should there be?
It seems as tabletop gaming has evolved, the need for clear, concise rulebooks has increased dramatically. And while a game designer can make a great game, a coherent rulebook oftentimes does not come with it. How can this be made better? submit…

/u/bboomslang on With a ban list update around the corner, what are you expecting or hoping from the RC?
Oh man, I would love painter servant unban, just makes pyroblast and reb so much better. Even burnout could become playable.
