I love it. a mono- or dual-colour deck doesn't often need the fixing of a Dingot or a Relic, and being able to trade it in for removal outside your colours is great.
Kayden White
If Sol Ring only made 1 colourless mana, would it be better or worse than Mind Stone?
Adrian Collins
>implying
Joshua Thomas
I'd say it would see more play than Mind Stone, but that doesn't mean that Mind Stone is better/worse.
Jaxson Ortiz
POST YOUR FAVORITE REMOVAL. Not the removal you think is best but your favorite one to play. Here's mine

Jackson Evans
This is great, I have this copy right in front of me. Damn good value for 3 mana.
Caleb Anderson
I really need to run this in my Volrath deck
Evan Russell
>RG Goodstuff
Decimate is great removal, 4 mana to hit and destroy 4 things, potentially from mana people is amazing
Savage Ventmaw is also great, and combos with Aggravated Assault well. As for a Commander, Xenagod or Ruirc Thar work wonders and the other fits into the 99 very easy.

I'm rebuilding my Kruphix. I used to play him with giant G/U beat sticks, but now I'm pondering other wincons like Squallline or Hurricane. What are some other fun ones with him?
Isaac Carter
Not them but mana Ramp into a Gelatinous Genesis/ Monstrous Hydra Broodmaster is amazing. Mana ramp also and shit out Eldrazi. Lab maniac for easy card draw wins if thats your cup of tea. Helix Pinnacle is easy mode.
Aiden Rivera
Oh I already know my commander
The one and only STANGG
Nathaniel Powell
Be sure to run Gemini Engine too. It is a barrel of laughs. Especially with pump.
Aaron Howard
It's possible the image was made before the E!Titans were a thing. Also, I would probably be playing both. Use Darksteel to quickly demonstrate infinite without Four Hoursmen issues, and then have a Titan if someone tries to make you deck yourself in response.
Kevin Miller
Workin' on Melek. Gonna have maybe 5 creatures in total, including the general. How many extra turns should I pack, if any? I don't want to get blown out by creatures that stick while trying to get the combo engine together, I'm in a creature-heavy meta
Nolan Powell
Making a Nicol Bolas deck to counteract my playgroup becoming extremely homosex. What needs to go in it to ensure maximum butt hurt?
Connor Bell
What kind of house rules would you be ok with to let someone run Westvale abbey as a commander?
Easton Powell
They still pay the commander tax for it. Maybe Ormendahl doesn't do commander damage.
Anthony Johnson
Must be in a creatureless deck.
Hudson Nguyen
Since that has no cmc and you can only get the creature by making it flip, I'd say initial 'cast' is the flip cost, and then recasting it would be sacking even more dudes on top of it, or normal tax on it.
Charles Wilson
That person has to play the game in a cute little dress and a wig
Am I overlooking something? How does Emrakul work in a multiplayer free for all game? It says that in a two headed giant game I control both opposing players but in a free for all do I control each player after me?
Nicholas Lewis
You only gain control of 1 TARGET opponent in multiplayer.
Noah Brooks
>target opponent >Target >opponent do you think lightning bolt hits every opponent or each creature?
Cameron Murphy
You only get to control one persons turn, in Two headed Giant the opposing players are 1 team
Jonathan Reed
OH YEAH, forgot about the word 'target,' my bad.
Grayson Howard
the greatest issue is only relying on blue and green. That said, pic related is the best.
Joseph Wright
>friend plays Oloro >break out my Nekusar >slap on dat infect to Nekusar
that was easy
Adam James
>that guy who doesn't like the 21 commander dmg rule >his commander is oloro
Josiah Allen

Oliver Robinson
>that guy who doesn't like the 21 commander dmg rule
Man does that piss me off
>g-guys what the hell I didn't even last long enough to infinite combo out quit being so unfun
Nathan Sanders
I want to build him with nothing but wraths and control and Felidar Sovereign/Test of endurance as my only wincon
Aiden Carter
But I want to copy Fireball multiple times with Meletis Charlatan and Echo Mage
Jacob Kelly
>infect >winning games kek
you know that's BULLSHIT
Mason Young
>Infect >not winning games especially on Nekusar, who does damage every turn >not running tainted strike in decks that want big creatures. lmao
Ryder Carter
I play Phyrexian Hydra in my Xenagod deck. It won me a game once. Hasty 14/14 infect outta nowhere!
Easton Nelson
How do I build around this guy? Any neat tech I should be aware of?
Lucas Barnes
Homeward Path
Matthew Green
Who else is excited for the new 4color commanders? Hopefully there will be commanders that have hybrid mana or activated abilities that are in different colors, but i also hope that there are legitimate 4 colors in the casting cost legends too.
Christopher Turner
I want them to be 4 color casting cost just to see what kind of mana base they will pull off
Brody Lee
The obvious is Homeward Path.
Aiden Barnes
Do you want to copy Fireball multiple times, or do you want to literally legally stack your entire deck?
Andrew Cooper
So i think i'll make my Stangg deck a warrior tribal with a sub-theme of doubling and copying creatures. If i can get Mirror Gallery out then it'll be a party with all of Stangg's extended family.
Gabriel Butler
>people unironically use nonbasic lands that come in tapped Are you guys serious? Sure, 5 colour decks and whatnot, by come on. You're just begging for that new Thalia to Fuck up your day or price of progress to make you cry. The scry lands are the only ones I can see being useful, all the other ones are just plain bad.
Henry Robinson
Exactly how does new Thalia effect lands that are ALREADY coming in tapped, fuckboy?
Nathan Rogers
Is there an /edhg/ discord?
Gavin Long
>wanting to voicechat with tg God why
Jeremiah Gray
Don't forget that Decimate has to have four targets.
Elijah Price
Not him. But I can see an advantage being able to communicate faster and actually go through the process of deck building easier. That being said the autism would be absurd
Parker Fisher
You got me. She's pretty good but not in that situation. Still, basics are the way to go, just run searchable ramp and I've never had a problem, particularly with anything that has green in it. I have money, I just can't justify spending it on fancy lands that Fuck up my tempo.
Gabriel Foster
So I'm making warrior tribal with Alesha, and was wondering if there are any other cards, like pic related, that have an additional effect if I have a warrior
Anthony Johnson
Both, ideally
Grayson Adams
That's the only hit for "if you control a Warrior".
Blake Richardson
DID SOMEONE SAY NONBASIC LANDS?
Julian Martin
>First cast is just the land, counts as your land for the turn >Still have to do the 5 sack for the flip >additional casts cost +2 mana and an extra sack for each cast
guys, really though? This is by a longshot the best commander
Aaron Torres
I think the biggest problem is that a land can't be responded to. I think it would work better if the land was treated as a spell and went on the stack
Jonathan Rodriguez
PLEASE PLAY AS MANY AS POSSIBLE
Easton Jenkins
...
Connor Martinez
Yea I figured Not exactly what I was looking for, but thank you anyways
Joseph Gutierrez
So what are some cards that can take advantage of having infinite mana in RUG? I have Comet Storm and BSZ, but I'm unsure of what else to include. I'd like for the cards to be useful outside of a infinite mana situation. The combo is Riku + Worldgorger Dragon if that helps
Hudson Harris
Capsize
Ian Campbell
>I need my hand held on how to win with infinite mana when I'm in the colors of "Oops I won" and "Fireball"
Logan Fisher
Token makers with buyback, creatures with non-tap abilities like Scalding Devil.
Jack Nelson
Warstorm Surge out any Hydra that you can pump up to 40/40
Ryan Walker
Oh you do, eh? It would be a shame if something happened to them.
Lucas Turner
NONBASICS ARE STRICTLY BETTER THAN BASICS SO DON'T HOLD BACK
Thomas Brooks
What's my best bet for tutoring artifacts in U/W stax? I'm thinking Tezzeret is pretty good, and I've got one on order, I'm just wondering what else I could put in there. I also run Taymio's Journal, which is a lot better than people give it credit for, and Kuldotha Forgemaster for the obvious blightsteel related shenanigans.
Ian Butler
R/W Tribal: Humans or Soldiers?
Henry Gomez
Enlightened Tutor, Fabricate, Reshape, Transmute Artifact, Treasure/Trinket Mage, Enlightened Tutor. Artificer's Intuition isn't bad, but it has a more limited range of what it can find.
Why not both?
Aiden Young
It seems a lot easier to produce Soldier tokens than Humans, so it seems like Soldier Tribal would be more token oriented while Human Tribal would be more specific Human creatures with human support.
Blake Myers
There's also a very nonzero overlap of Human Soldiers that could benefit from the double-dip (excluding the Soldier tokens)
Caleb Robinson
I need your help guys. I'm making Sidisi Brood Tyrant and I want to make it as spicy as possible. I'm talking Carolina Reaper level here. However, my knowledge of magic's vast card pool is small so I need some suggestions on what to include
Gavin Evans
>I want to make a spicy Sidisi deck Throw Brood Tyrant in the trash, build mono-black Sidisi.
Colton Diaz
Spicy suggestions, thanks user! I need to grab my strionic resonator, sol ring, tangle wire and winter orb somehow, right?
Lincoln Jones
Flawless taste.
Lucas Harris
I want all my colors to be spread evenly and don't want my green to all be boring cards.
