Give advice if you feel like it. I need some reccomendations on cards that are generally good in commander and can fit multiple decks.
Xavier Morris
You're not wrong, friendo.
Alexander Garcia
man what were they thinking with leovold
>low-cost commander that can lock out the entire table by turn 4
boy what could go wrong
didn't they learn anything from derevi?
Wyatt Bailey
Druids' Repository is a downright underrated card in token decks in my opinion. I've dumped my hand after one good swing many times with it.
Levi Price
hey guys i need some help
i noticed that my xenagos deck was having trouble hard casting creatures, so i put in stuff like garruk, caller of beasts and elvish piper. but then i noticed that as soon as i play those cards, everyone on the board instantly shoots all their spot removal at my shit and then they'll be gone by the time my next turn begins
should i keep them in as removal-bait? or ditch them? i really don't want to cut them out since i did pay like 10 bucks for them.
i can usually get one use off of them (xenagos haste on piper) but i'm still not sure if it's optimal
Chase Jones
How's the artifact removal in your meta? You could probably use Quicksilver Amulet in place of Garruk if your opponents don't go for your artifacts often
Nicholas Lopez
it's pretty prevalent. also, the bigger problem is that all of my timmy stuff is 6-7 cmc, so idk if cheating fatties is worth it when i could just put in more ramp
it's not fully optimal because i picked cards based on how fun i thought they would be rather than how good people say they are, so i don't have birthing pod or tooth and nail, etc.
Easton Smith
I have a Mayael deck, and after 2-3 multiplayer games I noticed Mayael drew a LOT of hate on the table turns 4-5 if I couldn't ramp fast enough to tap her by then.
So I added more ramp, as the deck is the same as yours, nothing but fatties over 6-7 CMC and manadorks.
Add in shit like sylvan scrying, nissa's pilgramage, explosive vegetation, etc. All the green mana ramp you can. Burnished Hart goes a long way as well, a good early blocker and ramp as well.
Hudson Ramirez
You've got decent ramp it looks like, if you want more I'd say throw in Burnished Hart, Farhaven Elf, Kodama's Reach, Nature's Lore, stuff like that. Maybe Exploration or Burgeoning if you're feeling adventurous.
Zachary Walker
yeah i currently have those cards in my "sideboard" since i felt like i had too much ramp. but i guess i do need a shitload of ramp since my best chance of winning is getting a godlike ramp and taking out a player or three within turn 5. xenagos really doesn't seem to do much when his opponents have equal mana
Matthew Long

Jacob Peterson
Is it an asshole move to win with bloodmoon in edh?
Why is this banned? It doesn't seem bonkers busted. Strong, sure, but not crazy
Jason Parker
Gotta get that dwarf tribal ready
Lincoln Bennett
Only in rare situations
If all your friends only have 1 deck and that deck happens to be a super casual 5-color deck, THEN using blood moon to win is a dick move
Any other situation is fine
Henry Barnes
OK
Benjamin Butler
Into the Odric2 you go
Bentley Richardson
RIP turn 1 Sol ring
Joseph Anderson
fucking forgot image
Austin Long
Why, because of Ceremonious Rejection?
Wyatt Mitchell
Ehh, it's one of those, "have graveyard hate or you lose" cards
Could be unbanned, could stay banned, both would be fine
It's a nnoying that you can't destroy it if they have a creature to sac, so it takes multiple pieces of disruption to stop this one card with huge upside
Michael Jenkins
The banlist of EDH is completely fucking arbitrary. Decided by what one guy and his playgroup deem "fun" or not. If you have a regular playgroup, just ask them if it's okay for you to put it in your deck. Chances are they'll let you.
Gabriel Ortiz
Why can't you guys crop your fucking images
Jeremiah Turner
>he can't appreciate framing
Easton Howard
Yeah it is. I love it for some quick on attack mana. Makes combat tricks a lot easier.
Thomas Morris
>look it up Holy shit.
Jason Wilson
Misstep does much the same thing, for free
Rejection hits ANY colorless spell though which is very nice
>Can only draw one card per turn >Get extra value from Mine effects >OH GOD I'M LOCKED OUT BANNED LIST WHEN?
He's a decent stax/control commander, but nothing he does on his own is busted. Dry off.

He really isn't that bad.

Fug, I don't want to take the deck apart but it's probably a better decision.

Thanks phone
Isaiah Walker
You've got some good stuff in there, but you need more ramp and you seem to have forgotten your Asceticism that goes in every single creature based deck with Green in it.
Some suggestions -Asceticism -Primordial Hydra -Asceticism -Savageborn Hydra -Asceticism -Search for Tomorrow -Asceticism -Kodama's Reach -Asceticism -Archetype of Endurance -Asceticism -Tempt with Discovery (And a Nykthos to go with it) -Asceticism -Boundless Realms -Asceticism
I've never been a fan of Piper effects, though. I much prefer ramp.
Kayden Lee

Cameron Mitchell
Not having any duplicate basics in your mono color deck looks so much nicer. It's not hard to do at all, but I'm still glad I spent that extra bit of effort.
Tyler Smith
Aww, did someone have a deck with Disciple of Kruphix? Hurtums fee-fees?
Andrew Morgan
>Not having any duplicate basics in your mono color deck looks so much nicer.
It does, but don't forget that there's strategy to having all of the same basic lands in your deck.
Jonathan Gomez
Boonweaver Giant with any of the following:
Shades Form Gift of Immortality Unhallowed Pact
Infinite with any sac outlet, preferably Blasting Station.
Nathan White
Is it just me or are the untap creatures of Lorwyn-Shadowmoor made for janky Depala decks?
Cooper Moore
I don't see any synergy here
John Howard
>man a vehicle >untap >can fight while driving the vehicle apparently all the lorwyn hijinks made everyone really good drivers
Carter Clark
Not even just the brokenness with wheel effects
Just putting a lightning greaves on him and keeping some counterspells up can make it impossible for your opponents
>hurrr mono white is totally unplayable cuz no card draw >leovold is totally balanced though, git gud
Daniel Miller
what are some fun cards to put into Maelstrom Wanderer?
Liam Martin
i don't really like the idea of running asceticism because it's an enchantment and i can't tutor for it. i'll be running archetype of endurance instead, which comes with a body, protects itself with hexproof and is tutorable.
one thing i do want to add at some point is more creature tutors (only 4 proper tutors at the moment, a few more pseudo-tutors), but i'm kinda strapped for cash right now so that'll have to wait.
those other things would probably be good too but i don't really feel like i need beaters. i have to struggle for control every time i get a good start so i really need almost all of my creatures for utility reasons. tutoring for creatures is what generally keeps me in the game. bane or progress deals with enchantment/artifact spam, balefire dragon kills token spam, duplicant kills fatties, godo deals with health issues, malignus combos with various things and 1-shots players with no blockers, etc.
even seemingly janky shit like living inferno is extremely clutch in xenagos. you can clear a board full of annoying utility creatures with it, and after you use it once you also have a 16/13 beater and recurrable pseudo-wipe. i'm guessing there would be a better creature to serve its role but i still like it a lot
Eli Martinez
What does that have to do with Depala at all?
Jaxson Russell
Or rather: >man a vehicle >untap >man another vehicle >untap >man another vehicle >untap
And next turn, all of your token buddies can man vehicles too!
Connor Bennett
how come all the vehicles suck ass so far
Dominic Ortiz
are you retarded? one is literally lightning bolt on a stick
Ayden Jones
well i haven't seen it so it doesnt exist
Angel Ward
It's a new mechanic. One is pretty much a continuous lightning bolt.
I suspect future expansions will have something like this. A new skeleton ship with the mechanic would be cool.
Gavin Perry
You mean a shitty inferno titan
Carson Campbell
Anyone have a chance to use Kaya in a game yet? How is she?
Lincoln Robinson
If you mean the legendary vehicle, that thing can't hit players.
James Gonzalez
Going for the "One of each color combination" thing. Also just remembered that I have a Ghave deck, but I never play it because I kind of hate it. Gonna pull it apart.
Jacob Lopez
it looks like inferno titan except
>costs 1 mana less and only colorless >can't target heroes >flying >-1 toughness >requires that crew shenanigans
ehhh i think i'd rather take the titan instead if i could
Asher Cooper
oh and it's also an artifact, which is probably bad in edh at least
Lincoln Parker
There is? Something about not giving your opponents information and stuff? What could they glean from peeping a land and knowing it's not the same as another?
Noah Moore
If they look at your hand, then you draw a card, and you play a different land, they knew you drew a land. It's minimal effect, but it's there.
Matthew Hill
>they see your hand >git probe or whatever >White-bordered island and some other stuff >you draw >you play a black-bordered island They now know your entire hand.
Grayson Green
There's as much artifact hate in EDH as there is creature hate.
Evan Murphy
And you just self-mill to hit it?
Hudson Sanchez
Still looking for any suggestions to go with my version of Feldon.
Really want to build it firmly the first time around, so I know what I can and can't adjust.
yeah but it's both at the same time when it attacks. i guess you could argue that sorcery-speed creature destruction can't touch it, though.
Cooper Brooks
Steel Hellkite and Wurmcoil Engine.
More draw discard effects like Wild Guess and Tormenting Voice are probably good.
Ancient Tomb can go into almost any deck if you have the budget.
Putting Fortune Thief into play in response to lethal damage could be S P I C Y
Eli Rogers
I think my favorite uses for it are powering the fuck out of Ezuri and Jazal.
Nicholas Morgan
Barneyfags die
Asher Reed
Man I really don't like your creatures. I know they are just quick beaters that are hopefully going to trample or have their damage doubled, but I think you could lose a few of the redundant ones and add in some higher curve etbers to better abuse feldon.
James Moore
i haven't played sheldon but i'm just going to recommend some cuts / adds based on having played those cards before
cut >hellkite charger (really slow and expensive, doesn't do anything ETB, generally dead if you don't already have a good board state, there are better beaters) >damage doubler enchantments (very winmore, you probably won't win by combat damage, expensive, dead cards if you're losing) >haste enablers (not sure why you'd need these. you will probably have sheldon out before these guys. but if you think you need them, keep them) >trample enablers (do you think you will ever have to get through blockers? wouldn't you rather want to kill the blockers instead? i think archetype of aggression is pretty shitty but idk)
add (maybe, not sure) >more looter effects >more creatures that control stuff on etb >more defensive stuff
sorry for vague descriptions, i'm doing something at this moment but i'll have suggestions later
Samuel Hill
Limited all star.
Cooper Gomez
Oh yeah. Jazal is great when you have the mana. Coat of arms on a stick is hard to beat.
Dominic Mitchell
>sheldon DO NOT BESMIRCH FELDON'S GOOD NAME
Jordan Richardson
>using Goyf in a casual format
user, please. You're better than that.

Angel Roberts
The thing is, I WANT to win with combat damage. Imy trying to make a different version of Feldon that doesn't rely on the ETB effects to win.
The idea is to play things like Ball Lightning, smash face for double damage, then mill self with Altar and make more fodder with damage. I want all double damage outlets I can get.
Flingers are also welcome.
Jaxon Watson
Then you need to add artifacts and creatures with dying effects. As mentioned above, wurmcoil engine would be a gooder one.
I enjoy thopter assembly alot too personally.
Adrian Murphy
No judge thread up and this is relevant to my EDH deck:
Situation: I have Tree of Perdition and Ayli on the field. I tap the tree to swap life totals with someone (say they start with 40 and the tree has 13). My opponent casts murder on the tree in response to the life swap trigger. I then sacrifice the tree to Ayli in response to the murder.
Alternatively, what happens if they cast murder then I tap the tree then sac it?
What happens? How much life do I gain? 13 or 40?
Nathan Jenkins
In the first scenario, you would gain 13. The swap trigger is still on the stack, therefore your last sac effect would take place before the trees. In the second one you would gain 40 because you're doing it in response to their spell.
