There's just not a lot of reason to not include anything CMC 3 or higher that you can cheat out.
Living Weapon/Job Select/Etc is good, but there wasn't really a reason to choose. Blue Mage's Cane for example is even more spells you can be vomiting out. Ninja's Blades gives you something to swing in with for even more drain. The only one I'm really missing here is Black Mage's Rod which is just more drain material and more Wizard pingers tribal; and maybe Dancer's Chakrams to keep you in the fight and double dip on a body. Reaper's Scythe is a meme, but it could be done.
For the Germ side of things, at rate you have Sickle Slicer, Nettlecyst and Bitterthorn; of which only really the latter two are good. At 4, you're looking at Skinwing, Lashwrithe and Bonehoard, once again only the last two are really scaling and pushing. Above that you're paying out the ass for things and they'd be better in decks that make them cheaper.
That leaves "For Mirrodin" in esper, which is a short list: Blade of Shared Souls isn't going to play nice with a deck running few actual creatures and, of those, almost all of them legendary. Goldwarden's Helm is chaff and Kemba's Banner isn't worth 4 without more synergy.
I'm not going to say it can't be done, but an equipment or creature focused commander would both benefit more from this; and unless you have ways to give them flash you're leaving 3 players turns worth of card draw and drain on the table. Instant tribal is just going to go farther.

Filling up the OP with useless shit isn't "thread culture". The only thing you posted that actually matters is the proxy information, which if I were king would be axed for being garbage advertisement; which if you bothered to read the OP you would have noticed was there.
Take the ego links to /vg/. They love attention whores running their generals.

By this logic wouldn't basically every link in the OP be useless aside from the most recent news article and maybe the proxy link? By the time someone's coming to /edhg/ I'd say 99% of users are informed enough that they don't need to be told what scryfall is. The OP is more of a formality than anything which is why maybe half of all generals (including /mtg/) have joke links in them as easter eggs for people that actually read the OP.

>>97902512
nta but this is funny to think about because it actually raises the idea that the joke links are *more* important than the real ones because the joke links might actually tell incoming users something new.
This isn't me advocating either way on this matter (although I actually did like the thread culture section being added). It's just a funny thought I had reading your post.

It's like calling a nonlefty gay guy a faggot, it's just a word that sums up what's there.

All this fucking does is reinforce the image that all MtG "players" are manchildren. This is a few lines of text in the OP that nobody reads anyway. Both people fucking arguing about this aren't even reading their own posts because they copied and didn't remove the (embed) and [Open] from their posts.

New Capenna elves just have the funky head horns. I think the mix up is that in his original art the artist overdid it on the flushed skin tone for a chef guy and in MOM both artists were given that as the reference for the character, so he's just red now. In the alt art in SNC he's normal.

i just run her as a controly slug list, i specifically didn't want to put a combo in because i wanted to play to her effect. It's a fairly generic esper value control list but i don't run any free spells with the exception of fierce, and that's only so i can sometimes actually play her on turn 3/4 without instantly dying.
i've actually won my last two games with her from inkshield

Tempt With Discovery? Yes. I don't care that for this one turn, you're getting a land. I don't care that you need one more mana to cast your "when this card enters or you cast a Dance Dace Revolution spell, do the Gonti thing." You're all bad at game theory, and I'm getting two lands and a 20/20 flying indestructible. No exile? Not my problem. Fuck your nine-line cards, give me raw, beautiful power. What? Caught on and want to try to counter my shit while giving all of your Transformers +1/+1? How about I just uhm play a card with three words? "Counter target spell." Simple. Beautiful. Attacking? Five triggers on the stack and even more spells? Yeah, how about another three word spell? "End. The. Turn." Marvelous. Yes, that's a thing. Go ahead. Overextend. Vomit your deck. I have a Windfall and Cyclonic Rift in hand, and only one of us thought "there might be a time when someone will want to pull a card out of a graveyard." Don't like it? I can switch to Angels. Pay attention. These two cards fusion summon into one. That's right. I'm playing Yu-Gi-Oh now. Mystic Mine? Ward of Bones. Have fun.

I've wanted a good Stun Commander for years and I was excited to see the keyword on her, but one creature when it attacks you? And a 4 mana proliferate? Dumbasses at least let me put stun counters on creatures for 4 mana. I don't know why they insist on kneecapping potentially fun mechanics for "balance" in this game when they print so much blatantly broken/better stuff without any brakes on it. I'm just bitter about FF in particular because there were at least 10 commanders who would've been absolutely perfect for decks I want to build but they gimped them into near uselessness while simultaneously printing busted commanders like Vivi and Celes and Yshtola.

I was playing with it. The problem I've had is that I want the talismans for the draw, and the signets, while 2cmc, allow me to get enough mana out for my counter/interaction fuckery ASAP. My game plan is usually:
>use 2cmc rocks and lands out to get cat girl out on turn 3
>tutor curiosity/ophidian eye for unlimited draw works
>draw into my combos and stuff to fuck with everyone
>counter EVERYTHING
The way I see it, I have enough 3cmc stuff for her activated effect. The rocks are just there to get some early gas.

You're free to do it, but hard to argue you're not a sweaty fucktard if you do. I don't think there is anything more pathetic than sweating in a bracket 2 (and likely still losing) because you are so terrified to higher brackets.

I'm just coming back to MTG again since 2013 (quit after Dragon's Maze) and getting into Commander.
Just curious, do you guys prefer to proxy your commander decks, or do you go and buy every card for your deck if you find a new one you wanna play?
Will I get chewed out by some fags if I show up to a Commander night at my local card shop with decks I made via mpcfill?

Depends on how much goodstuff you're proxying. If your decks all contain all the best stuff proxied you're probably kind of a fag.
Unless you're playing cEDH in which case go wild, they're all doing the same.

Be candid about what you're doing, learn enough about rule zero and the bracket system to make sure you know how to set expectations and communicate what you're trying to do.

You are aware you're on a site that pirates basically all of it's media, right? Trying to act like a puritan among thieves is a fool's errand go somewhere else. I won't buy a copy of The Good The Bad and The Ugly for 10 bucks at target, if I want to watch it I'll pirate it. If the prices for the cards I want are not reasonable I WILL proxy them. I'm not coughing up 60 bucks for my third copy of the Great Henge and you shouldn't ether. This isn't a sanctioned format with prizes so no I won't be rebuying blood crypt every time I build a BR deck because that's stupid.

I truly can't understand why someone would dump money to play commander. The only decent way to play it is among your friends, far removed from the cringe of randoms. And if you're already buddies, who cares if you pirate it? Just talk it out for powerlevel.
(Definitely not trying to justify having bought another celica to tinker with lmao)

See here's the thing anon - you have friends. That proves you were at least mildly well adjusted and likeable, which means you are at least average to above average iq. Therefore you have an identity outside of being a paypig and don't need to base your worth on being a consumer.
Some people however are not like you and I. They are dumb.and/or unlikeable, therefore they have to base their identity around throwing away money on a hobby that they have to go play in public places because they have no friends, so they need to use their consumerism as a way to climb their own idea what they think a social ladder is.
It's sad to see but there's no helping them. Just be thankful you're not living a life as sad as they are.

Unless you strictly buy packs or sealed product you're not supporting them (which isn't how building a commander deck fucking works.) Buying singles from older sets on the secondary market for a commander deck doesn't make them a dime. They don't get a cut every time someone buys a shock land from their lgs or an online retailer for commander.

I love this card, anon. A lot of people say this card is overcosted, and it can be a good beater card. I think it's super underrated and it wins me so many games. Might be my favorite card.
In other news, what do you guys think about playing off color fetches? Cringe or acceptable in the right decks? I'm running divining top, Lotus Cobra, Life from the Loam and Oracle of Mul Daya so I feel like it's worth having extra fetches instead of some normal dual lands they have now.

It's considered bad because there's a rule -1 in all table top games that when setting up a game takes longer than you actually spend playing it, it's not even worth playing anymore.
You can writhe or seethe about that all you want, but the fact is that when you spend all your time shuffling then you're going to seriously limit the number of people that want to play with you.

Well yeah. My point from the start is that part of the reason people don't like speedy formats is because the initial set up and intermittent shuffling draw the gap between set up and game play uncomfortably close for people.
It's not a problem that you're an exception to rule -1, but you can't and should expect other people to be.

Because its not a boardwipe.
That's faggots Vivi is now a 1/1 coward until someone kills it, which one one will. Making everything useless, but not in a graveyard or in the commandzone in often times actually more powerful than a boardwipe.

It's worse than a real boardwipe in every context but neutralizing commanders, which is a 3 mana effect. A dead creature can't block anything and can't be sacrificed for resources.

1) It's on a competent body.
2) It can be flickered.
3) Recursion is so prolific and piss easy in basically every color now that boardwipes don't hold the same power they used to, especially for Commanders which are getting cheaper and cheaper each set even as they become more and more bloated with abilities.
If your opponent is playing a generic goodstuff pile they likely have numerous ways to ensure they don't give a fuck if you wipe creatures. Making all their creatures 1/1s with no abilities will delay them far longer than just sending them to the graveyard would.
TLDR the game is getting shittier
>>

Lightning is probably more generally useful. The cat is only good if you have expensive to equip equipment on the field.
It is also specifically equipping it all with a creature ability, which is relevant.

The way "generic goodstuff" ignores this is by getting value off noncreature permanents or just having more creatures to play. that's why the card is bad. It's 7 mana for a really bad "wipe"

Even Rikku got a better card than all 3 of them, since putting a counter on a creature making it unblockable for a turn can straight up just be a game winning play.
I was also hoping for a RWG or RWB Auron in the main set. Same with a Grixis Seymour. I like both of their current cards and use them as much as I can, but still.
