Ok so I already ordered some cards for Mimeoplasm but I was goldfishing him just now and I realized the deck doesn't do very well past the first mimeoplasm cast (if it goes bad)
Generally speaking, what should I be doing?
>stack protection on mimeoplasm himself to make sure he doesn't needlessly die, rely mostly on recasting him if he gets removed
or
>put in a good deal of sac outlets and reanimation to reanimate as a backup plan and to sac mimeoplasm in response to disruption, forgo protection otherwise
I know it's a matter of taste but I'd still like to hear if anyone has experience with the commander and can tell me how either build works out. I'd rather have the deck style that is less obnoxious for everyone else
Landon Ortiz
Play it in 1v1
Isaiah Watson
>>put in a good deal of sac outlets and reanimation to reanimate as a backup plan and to sac mimeoplasm in response to disruption, forgo protection otherwise
to clarify, i had issues doing this since the fucker eats through my grave in an instant. i'm sure it's less of a problem irl when i have 3 other graves to exile from, but still. most people in my meta run shitty tribal or synergy jank like karlov, so copying their stuff isn't that great.
Lincoln Young
Play a bunch of back up plans, i use a lot of dredge and wheel effects in mine so i fill up the graveyard prettty quickly, i run Mortal Combat and some cheap reanimation spells like Reanimate, Victimize, Animate Dead etc. to make sure i can do something else in case Memeoplasm gets hated out.
I could also run Laboratory Maniac since my deck gets thin pretty quick but that would make it a pretty easy wincon to achieve and wouldn't just work as a backup plan.

I need enchantments that make mana that aren't blue. I already have black market. What are my options? I also already have a Serra Sanctum so don't worry about that.
Isaac Miller
Honestly, the new commander decks made so much “choose a tribe” tribal stuff that you could make almost any tribal deck work off the backs of crazy cards like the wrath and the enchantments.
Zachary Long
>I need enchantments that make mana that aren't blue.
You can make the query even better but since it was only two pages of results, I figured it would do.
I recommend any EDH player to familiarize themselves with that syntax, it saves a lot of the time.

I actually really look forward to Bass's Bounty since I like treasure but I wish they had made silvergill adept "reveal a merfolk or wizard". I mean they printed a wizard commander deck and now they've already forgotten the tribe again

Jackson Miller
If I copied someone's basic Kraj deck, what could I go for to personalize it? Some big X mana pay-off since the main shenanigans of Kraj is to get infinite mana? Or some Herald of Secret Streams business since I'd have so many +1/+1 counters in circulation? Or use Arcanis burn through my deck for a surprise Laboratory Maniac? Or streamline the basic Kraj combo, then run Biovisionary and a bunch of shapeshifters?
Once upon a time I wanted to make some Kraj deck with shit from Ixalan, but then I realized very few Ixalan cards have good abilities to take. Maybe Rivals will give me what I wanted.
The majority of said Kraj deck

the way it's 5 mana abiltity is worded means you can play stuff from your hand, so omniscience, ulamog etc are now 3ub lol

I don't like winning games regardless of opponents' board states and life totals, it makes every effort up until that point feel meaningless.

Nope. MaRo said it only works while X is being revealed by his own effect in another player's hand.

So, further proof that MaRo is an idiot? This doesn't seem to be a thing that needs a day 0 errata. It should have been caught in testing.
Christian Perry
>TQ still bows my mind why they couldn't make a squirrel legend
Austin Phillips
No, it's because it doesn't say "from" in the rules text. It's actually kind of esoteric rules text that get in the way of it, but it's completely by the books.
Chase Gomez
Do you guys think this would be too good if the ability could be activated from the command zone? I kinda want to make it if my group is okay with it.
Jace White
The oracle rulings for Mairsil are kinda funny. Its neat that he can get crewed and make friends. But it doesn't mention anything about flip cards, if you exile a flip card with Mairsil do you get the abilities of both sides or just one? Idk if there even are any fli pcards with activated abilities on both sides but its still making me wonder
Aiden Williams
Treasure Map has an ability on both sides.
Lucas Kelly
Only include if you have a Mind Break fetish.
Blake Watson
They chose not to so you could have multiple squirrel lords
James Cooper
The characteristics of the flipside of a flip card only exist while it's on the battlefield and flipped. If you want to search your library for a legendary creature, you can't find Akki Lavamancer or Tok-Tok, Volcano Born. If you exile Kenzo the Hardhearted with Duplicant, Duplicant will be a 1/1. In short, no, Mairsil does not get the abilities of the flipside.
Oh also, since kind of reminded me that you might have meant DFCs, the same is true for them. Only the front side has any identifiable characteristics when it's not transformed on the battlefield.

Parker Flores
X's first ability says it can activate its abilities from a hand if it's being revealed in its owner's opponent's hand specifically. Explain to me how you activate his 3UB ability targeting a card in a hand he's in, if he's in your hand.
Owen Thompson
>put into opponents hand when empty >save mana and use its 3ub ability each time they draw a card, casting it to your side >rinse and repeat, soft-locking your opponent out of the game

Building Wort as well and I can't fucking wait for holidays so i can have time to play this deck. It looks like a god damn blast!
Jackson Adams
Hey /EDHG/
Where the fuck do you get those small white cardboard boxes that have a folding flap. Retailers use them all the time to sell boxes of 100 to 200 bulk rares and uncommons? They make the best customizable deck boxes ever
They're probably just bcw boxes. Amazon or game store.
Jonathan Gutierrez
200 count boxes were what i wanted but fuck i don't need 100 and I don't want pay $5 a box. I'll check with the local hobby/game stores. Thank you
IMHo these are again super awesome deck boxes. They hold a whole sleeved commander deck, the commander, a few tokes, and some life die. You can also write and draw all over them and they are fairly compact and durable

Nathaniel Bennett
My buddy has a jund lands deck, with Xira at the helm. From my experience, all you people whining about no jund land commander are dumb. Jund lands doesn't need a commander, it regularly beats most decks, no need to cast Xira. Our meta is pretty strong, and we go to the lgs sometimes and Xira fucks people up regardless of what they're playing.
Asher Price
Ad: His jund lands deck is not budget by any means.
Samuel Green
Triple cast? Just remember that conspire gets you at most one extra copy.
Jordan Davis
>no jund land commander Where did I ask for one? Sure, there are people who wants jund land commander, but I'm not of them. I love jund colors, but as they are now, I think their legends are pretty meh, nothing really fun.

Nathaniel King
Pardic Miner seems kinda bad unless you have a lot of recursion. Ghost Quarter is mana disadvantage unless your playing against hyper-competitive decks that have no basics. And were is your blood moon? 5/10 okay disruption package.
Dominic Turner
>>Thread Question >What obscure or underdeveloped tribe do you wish you could build around? gargoyle would be cool. they need to develop them thematically better though. for the most part they seem to be artifacts or artifact creatures that either turn into creatures or lose defender and gain flying.
hoping cephalids come back in dominaria. they could easily become more dimir or esper.
yeah i don't think anybody is going to let you reveal it from the command zone. now that you mention it tho, i'm kind of surprised wotc would print a card like this which interacts to poorly with edh. i thought after grandeur they were more aware than that.
Josiah Diaz
I'd run other things but Hydra's play so well with Kruphix's mana-banking ability and I like the vaguely flavorful use of them with my Theros block commander. Also Eldrazi are expensive and my playgroup thinks annihilator is anti-fun.
Owen Ross
Need as many dwarves as possible. I suppose I could swap him out for Blood Moon. Any other disruption effects I could include in here?
Adrian Sanchez
there are some good trample hydras. managorger, primordial, domesticated, lifeblood, & scourge of skoka vale could all have a place in kruphix.
alternatively you could just give your stuff trample. brawn is a favorite of mine. primal rage. nylea. triumph of the hordes.
John Perry
Is it a good idea to run cards like Evolving Wilds and Teramorphic Expanse to thin your deck and fetch out basics?
Blake Morris
Pyromancers goggles my friend
Kayden Baker
i do this in one of my decks that revolves entirely around milling through my library without hitting lands
but otherwise. no. it's not worth it. unless you would need the mana fixing anyway.
Jason Price
Does it need more recurssion?
Anthony Bell
you should just post the whole list user. (you probably need more)
Joshua Gonzalez
you have to play a lot of fetches to make it work, on average you can only get enough fetching to thin about 5% of your deck in edh unless youre 5 color and depending on how the rest of your mana base is you might be paying 1/4-1/3 of your hp for minimal deck thinning. You can use a hypergeometic calculator to figure out the exact amount of thinning but it generally wont be worth the cost unless youre already playing green and using other land tutors.
I'm sorry, I didn't see the wurm on the packaging for ICONIC Masters
Zachary Cruz

Owen Barnes

Lincoln Morales
There is literally a single wurm that doesn't have wurm in it's name
I don't know if that's stupid or cool
Brandon Myers
Swap out the 4 or so uncards and pretend the commander is pic releated. Pheobe isn’t that broken either way, she doesn’t keep stuff when she leaves, and stuff re-entering regains it’s text. And is blockable by anything she steals. It’s probably not even as degenerate as my mairsil deck.
He probably looked up wurm so that's all it showed him What a loser lmoa
Thomas Kelly
Stupid question, but I want to make sure: >permanently Does she accumulate stolen text boxes, or does she replace a previously stolen text box when she steals another text box?
Which reminds me, between her and Kraj, does anyone who runs either ever use Spy Kit? Or do affects and abilities that refer to (Specific Name of the Card) just adapt to whatever creature card is stealing or mimicking them?
Cooper Myers
Accumulates them.
Justin Rodriguez
houserule that the ability goes up with commander tax maybe? Or perhaps that it costs 2B?

You're being lazy. Commit to somehow putting it into your hand, or don't bother. Command Beacon exists. I hope your group doesn't let you do that.
