>Thoughts on the Brawl format so far? its going to be overpriced, underpowered but maybe decent for getting new people into full fledged commander but then again DollarRares.dek already sorta does that hell my first edh deck was mostly commons and uncommons cause i couldnt bear spending a whole dollar on a card
Camden Wright
You dong.
Caleb Cooper
I was in a hurry. The thread was about to be kill.

>thread question
It could be a good containment format for cEDHfags who can't play a deck if they can't shoe horn storm, or doomsday into it, since brawl may have prize support.
Hudson Powell
If this format gets promoted by jotc, it will be as unfun as playing agains doomsday. Limited cardpool makes a meta that can be solved, contrary to EDH. My first guess is that Scarab God will be powerhouse in this tiny leaders 2.0
Dominic Morris
unless they make it a 20 life format and maybe then we can get some mono red action going
Mason Williams
Why run Exsanguinate over Torment of Hailfire? In my Gitrog deck I regularly cast Torment for twenty-something mana, and usually win on the spot; Exsanguinate wouldn't be nearly as impactful. Are there certain commanders or playstyles that have reason to prefer it, or am I missing something?
Jayden Gutierrez
The mental images generated by OP card are too good >A random blue human legend running around and hitting people with manaliths, entire pyramids >Meanwhile a giant hitting people with some dude's glasses
Kevin Hernandez
Exsanguinate doesn't give them a choice as to what they lose. Though in both cases, if the number is big enough, it really shouldn't matter.
Nolan Rogers
If it replaces standard, it is going to be better, if it tries to replace commander, we are in for a shitstorm. Also, I imagine that a large part of the cEDH players will move to brawl, since there will be tournaments, and sanctioned events with actual prizes. It can be good, I'm feeling optimistic about it.
>i couldnt bear spending a whole dollar on a card I know how you feel.
Wait, so the only way to get the minotaurs is through boxes?
Jaxson Carter
In short, Standard-legal Commander. Or something like that. They're unveiling the specifics tomorrow.
Robert Lewis
Karn is my magicfu and this made my nipples erect.
Hudson Martinez
Whats the point of that it's missing the whole thing with massive cardpools that makes commander fun to build and play with "wait what does that do"
Isaiah Gomez
Looks like it's the only way to get them foil?
Carson Gray
To quote WOTC itself:
"It’s a ton of fun, it’s been one of the most popular “for fun” formats at Wizards of the Coast this past year, and we’re introducing it with Dominaria."
Take that as you will.
Jayden Gonzalez
Right, and A25 is the themed masters set you've been waiting for.
Robert Smith
Personally, I'm skeptical and curious. At least Dominaria will have a ton of legends to choose from. Not that Darigaaz would make for a great Commander...
Robert Campbell
>brawl is commander using standard only cards >using standard only cards >standard only >standard
>It’s a ton of fun, it’s been one of the most popular “for fun” formats at Wizards of the Coast this past year
You can't "replace" Commander. It exists because people wanted it to exist hard enough and as long as there's demand it will still exist.
But a baby brother variant won't be a bad thing. The 60 card singleton format makes it a lot easier to brew up new meme decks like Zacama where most of the stuff you want to run with it is Standard stuff anyway.
Eli Thomas
BUY MORE PACKS DON'T YOU LOVE MTG? JUST FUCKING BUY THEM
cBrawl would not be nearly as fun as cEDH is. For a competitive format to thrive, the base game has to be fun.
Jacob Williams
I, for one, can't even imagine a functional deck built from 99 standard legal cards, it's not even Craw Wurm-tier
Lucas Cruz
You should be running both as finishers.
Kayden Flores
It'll be 59.
Hudson Powell
singleton too. With the quality of standard legends being what they are (literally only one or two are playable every couple sets), it's going to be a two deck format at most. Terrible for competition.
Kevin Rodriguez
Rest in peace. I used it for one week before I found out about fucking red getting nerfed of all things. Why even print it in a commander set if you're going to remove the only relevant part of one of its choices? Fucking bastards.
>you can't replace >it only exists because there is a demand If that demand reduces significantly, and brawl player becomes a large majority, it effectively "replaced" edh.
Gabriel Hall
>Friends birthday in the next two week >Unsure of what to get him >Thinking about getting him the Judge Promo Zur as he wasnted to make a Zur list. Him making Zur isnt an issue or anything, we both have pretty competitive decks.
>For a competitive format to thrive, the base game has to be fun. For a competitive format to thrive, the base game has to has tournaments and prizes. There is a reason why cEDH is so small compared to casual EDH, which is the opposite of what happens in every other competitive format.
Xavier James
user, don't get him a commander that's ancient. Get him the perfect gift for any commander enthusiast, a box of Dominaria, with the exclusive BRAWL legal promo general! Commander is a design mistake, and BRAWL is the future.
Carson Miller
>Virgin Crybaby Judge Promo Zur >Chad Madman OG Zur
Angel Kelly
theres an user around here that plays in a format where only cards from theros forward are legal it wasnt THAT bad but khans was a big boon for that format this was my attempt at it tappedout.net/mtg-decks/cedh-theros-thing/?cb=1521654916
John Moore
That is another criteria, but it doesn't remove the need for a fun base game. If a game isn't fun, it will die. See literally any "esports" focused game where the devs forgot to make it fun.
Jaxson Rogers
>chad >playing zur no chad plays cromat
Nicholas Morris
Is this about the planeswalker redirection change?
Thomas Bennett
>chad >playing five color good stuff Chad plays mono colored, and has a general for each color from kamigawa block all at varying levels of competitiveness.
Zachary Morgan
chad doesnt give a fuck about your dislike of 5c "my favorite stuff" and certainly wouldnt give enough of a fuck to do some shitty theme like you suggested
Ian Morgan
No Chad plays Prossh without foodchain
Jeremiah Powell
Yeah, since it doesn't target it's only player damage now. It was a surprisingly good card too.
Evan Thomas
I know chad doesn't give a fuck about what I feel, chad behaves that way because it is objectively correct for him to do so in order to maximize his fun because kamigawa legends are objectively the most fun legends, and goodstuff is objectively the least fun way to play
Sebastian Hall
>chad behaves that way because it is objectively correct for him to do so in order to maximize his fun fucking nerd
Jack Perez
Well, the document posted after the leak is up for more than two weeks now, so you should have seen it coming before buying. >checking price holy fuck what happened there? why did red confluence spiked that much? Is there a Legacy deck using it?
Zachary Miller
>people don't play standard Just because you don't play standard, it doesn't mean that people doesn't think it's fun. Also, I have found many players who didn't really care about having fun in competitive formats, all they cared about was winning.
Xavier Ward
you do know theres a difference between good stuff and my favorite stuff
chad clearly plays cromat "my favorite stuff" you arent going to stop him from playing rite of replication, broodmate dragon and dick wurm in the same deck
Robert Rogers
What if the Commander 2018 decks are all brawl decks?
I'd probably stop buying product entirely until wotc issued a public apology and changed their ways. Unless the next few standard sets are Urza's Saga tier fun.
Dominic Davis
>commander deck >they are brawl decks They would have to rename the product. It is more likely that they will replace into decks with brawl ones, you can play standard as usual with it, and to play brawl, you just have to separate your commander at the beginning.
Jayden Collins
That Karn is looking migthy fine, art-wise
Kevin Cox
Nah. They don't know if it's going to stick. But what if we stop getting commander deck and only brawl decks in a near future like 2019?
I drafted it last night actually, and I was pretty disappointed. Commander decks have usually been okay though
Don't lie, it was great for casual magic.
Gavin Price
Nice, from moving cards to stright up animation, the trailer looks pretty nice
Asher Reed
Is people still buying product post Zendikar 2.0 era?
Christian Price
exactly this though i still spend 20ish dollars on singles every set
Anthony Torres
>Thoughts on the Brawl format so far?
Wizard's is trying to set a new record for how fast a new game will fail, if this is how they are going to hype Arena.
Daniel Adams
yeah but singles are acceptable since there are good cards here and there. But sealed product, since the shitty quality, poor card selection, blatant shit reprints... No chance to buy sealed product or pay for a draft unless you lack gray matter
Justin Carter
Cube drafts are basically the only way to enjoy limited anymore.
Carson Gutierrez
It's consistently played in vintage mentor, but that's about it.
John White
Does anyone have a zur doomsday list i could look at for guidance? My table has begun the arms race and I already have a Zur mill deck to convert over.
Also jesus Christ selvala is a fast cunt
Brayden Lee
proxying out the holiday cube was one of the best ideas my friend had we only play a couple times a year but thats a decent cube
>thread question looks like it will further artificially inflate prices of cards in standard, kind of like tiny leaders did. although this format is actually pushed by the mothership. seems like a format made for buying more sealed product, or paying for overpriced singles. the most irritating part of standard is a cards that sells for $20 to $30 will drop below $10 once it rotates out. very rarely will an expensive standard card maintain even half of its value after rotation.
his desert island survival and pirate adventures made him from zero to hero. he went from being frail and pale to swole and tanned like gold.
Grayson Cox
How did saheeli rai doom the multiverse? I kind of stopped following after it was clear that every story would be about the jacetice league.
Alexander Clark
I really hope that wotc stops making Commander precons and makes Brawl precons instead. Standard EDH is a dumbass idea and I'll be glad to see the people that are attracted to Brawl leave EDH.
Zachary Jenkins
>Thoughts on the Brawl format so far?
Firesong and Sunspeaker's garbage-tier limited availability sours the whole announcement. Wizards has forgotten the lessons of the book and con promos they swore never to repeat.
At least, if they're forgetting such old oaths, perhaps the Reserved List will bite it in the next decade or so.
Jaxon Morris
She invented the "Works post-mending" planar portal that Bolas is going to use to invade everywhere. Saying she doomed the multiverse is like saying Oppenheimer doomed the world with his involvement in nuclear weapons research.
Luis Evans
Iuno about that. Probably be a lot less getting blown out because you lost a die roll. I'm honestly getting a little tired of playing singleton vintage.
With how bad combo generally is in standard it might allow for control and aggro decks of some sort to actually exist, even if the format will be relatively easy to solve due to the small cardpool.
I'm cautiously optimistic.
Joshua Gonzalez
We can't have players destroying pws. Wotc hopes you'll learn that.
Asher Perry
Mana base looks okay, I'd just ditch the guildgates for basics or utility lands.
Also, Luminarch Ascension wins games if unanswered (and enchantment removal isn't exactly abundant in EDH), it's perfect for pillow fort, and it's about a dollar now.
Saheeli didn't invent the Planar Bridge, Rashmi did.
Jeremiah Williams
>enchantment removal isn't exactly abundant in EDH
Rashmi’s project was the Planar portal, but she couldn’t get it working quite right because it kept blowing parts. Rashmi asked Saheeli (who is amazing at making machine parts) to make a new Aether coil or whatever, something that would survive otherwise Rashmi couldn’t present her “Teleporter” on time for the Inventor’s Fair. Saheeli figures out what the machine actually was and how dangerous it is for the Multiverse, and said “Look, you are messing with forces that could doom everybody, I’m not gonna help you.” and Rashmi was all “That’s bullshit Saheeli this is my one chance to be the best you are always the best why do you hate me? ;_;” which guilted Saheeli into not only fixing the Proto-type portal, but getting Rashmi an extra-special session with the Consul of Innovation to show off The Planar Portal / Teleporter. Which led to Tezzeret getting it, which led to Bolas getting it, which means grease up your cornhole because Bolas is coming for it with his bad dragon.
Zachary Watson
and by that i mean ur dumb art/enchantment removal is extremely prevalent
Anthony Diaz
