If you have a card that would work wonders in a deck but contradicts the flavor of said deck, would you include it?

I fucked it up the last time I did it....

Heeeell no. If I'm building a deck specifically to be flavorful, that takes precedence over being good enough to win.

>If you have a card that would work wonders in a deck but contradicts the flavor of said deck, would you include it?
Never. Flavor decks are made for flavor.

>If you have a card that would work wonders in a deck but contradicts the flavor of said deck, would you include it?

Yes, I include Phyrexian praetors in my sisay deck, devoted enemy of the phyrexians

I'm happy my meta is slow/casual enough to allow me to run them, honestly.

What card would you like to see banned? (Besides sol ring)

user, I'm a legendary OP that has made hundreds of threads.

Even I fuck up from time to time, as long as you aren't namefagging, and don't try to do something too fancy, pretend to be someone else, and if you were namefagging, and not one of very few acceptable people, I'd just make a new thread as soon as I saw it anyways.

Make threads whenever you want, because everyone else will generally be too lazy to do it. Just start making it at 315 posts and for the love of god, do NOT get into a battle about who makes the thread. It's honestly a super small deal and will help out us lazy anons a lot.

Eh my problem is that even when they aren't too slow, half of them are dysfunctional or just plain boring

The only card that gets me mad lately is Leovold. And I wouldn't ban it, honestly. Neither Sol Ring

I want leovold to be banned, feels broken to me

I get that every deck can all the broken fast mana, but not all of them feel so consistent with their turn 2 wins

I mean technically it's not a win to leovold wheel on turn 2 but it feels close enough

Mana crypt and sol ring are just plain stupid, they make commander super RNG based instead of just a healthy balance of randomness and strategy
