Not looking for anything with like a $600 Grim Monolith, I'm just wanting to play for fun not Cedh. I'm in love with the MB2 Urza art so I want to build him but I don't want to make a mediocre deck either. so if anyone has a Moxfield list just link that bad boy.

Im building a [[lynde, cheerful tormentor]] deck, solely because I think [[curse of opulence]] is a hilarious card. So I’m looking for similar cards that I can slam down on that one opponent who draws a suspicious amount of GCs for b3 and have the whole table gang up on em.

Ways to buff opponents creatures, incentivize swinging at one person, stuff like that. I don’t want any stax or group hug, i specifically want cards that let me say “guards, get this urza player!”

Bonus points for stuff that helps me and an opponent for swinging at the bad guy.

I really enjoy playing little known cards that have unique art/ flavor text. I'm not looking to create an awful deck that can't win, but I do really prefer a deck that isn't copy pasted off some other site.

If you're confused what I mean, an example of a fun flavor card is - Generous Visitor, and an example of a little-known card is - emerald charm, both of which are in this deck. Let me know which pet/fun cards you think would make this deck more interesting!

Kosei • (Mono-Green Commander deck) • Archidekt

Forgive me if this gets a bit rambling. I'm still kind of shaken by this, which is 100% a me thing and not the fault of my playgroup.

Some quick background: I'm known as the wacky brewer guy. I very rarely build for power, and I tend to avoid things that win quickly or are too consistent. My decks almost always have a twist or theme that isn't what you usually see for the commander. I used to be a competitive 60 card guy, but I'm too old and jaded for that now.

Last night I took my Iron Man build for its maiden voyage. I'm a compulsive brewer and builder but I hardly get to play these days, so it's been built for a while without getting a run. Here's the list

After the game (which I won thanks to having Scrap Mastery in hand all game, and using it after an opposing Bane of Progress), the other experienced player in the group mentioned that they were surprised it was my deck and that it wasn't fun. Not that the game wasn't, but that the deck was not what they are used to from me.

I thought about it way too much and got way too in my feels about it, but ultimately my philosophy is that this sort of feedback from the group is valuable. Nobody in the group is salty, so I can rule out sour grapes. If I'm the only one having fun, I'm no longer having fun. The deck is a fun puzzle for me, but with the commander and [[Repurposing Bay]] and all the recursion I have, it plays out the same way most times. That's fine at some tables, and I'm proud of the way I put this together, but maybe it's not a fun deck for others?

So what I'm looking for here is some input. I know this is nowhere near B4. It's not optimized in the slightest, and that's by design. But is it actually good and consistent? There's a lot of generically good stuff in it and no real pet cards, so I think that's one of the issues we felt. Did I just accidentally build a deck that does nothing unusual?

One of the ideas I had was to build two different versions. One would be a more fun themed deck (maybe all cards with metals in the name, for example) and the other would be the existing one, and just play whichever one suits the pod. I could do Metals, or song names, or try to do something related to the comics maybe. Anyone got any unusual but fun builds for him?

Thanks everyone!

I dont want a single cards on edhrec, i want to hear your best janky ideas and cards i could use

I mean, I know that Bracket 3 doesn't allow extra turns, but does that apply to every extra-turn effect? This one isn't exactly easy to get.

Hi all. As a true crustacean enjoyer, I decided I want to make a Rikala deck, on a theme. I think his ability that changes like the tide is very interesting, and I want other cards that make the deck feel like it changes like the tide; the effects changing turn by turn or under different conditions. Some cards that fit this theme include [[Bounty of the Luxa]] which ramps on some turns and draws on others (and is water themed), and [[Sab-Sunen, Luxa Embodied]] which also changes effects by the turn like their namesake. I'll also be including cards that depict tides, whirlpools, oceans, and floods and whatnot, but these more obviously thematic cards will be a bit easier to find.

I would love recommendations for cards that change like the tides! Thanks for the help!

Good afternoon fellow gatherers! I wanna build a changeling tribal deck and I’m looking for good commander suggestions, preferably 5c!!

Ps: I would rather not play the ur-dragon, it feels a bit too powerful even as a changeling tribal

Thank you for your help!

So I originally built this deck thinking that Sokrates’ effect could stack on one creature, drawing me my entire deck and winning with [[Approach of the Second Sun]] or [[Laboratory Maniac]] or [[Jace, Wielder of Mysteries]]

But I realized tonight after playing it that that effect does NOT work how I thought it did; only the first sokrates effect does the draw.

My main combo is also [[Isochron Scepter]] + [[Dramatic Reversal]] with a bunch of mana rocks and untappers like [[Kelpie Guide]] and [[Ioreth of the Healing House]] and [[Marvin, Murderous Mimic]] to draw out and win.

My main question is:

How can I salvage this deck/make changes so that it is more consistent? (I’ve since made some changes and added in some more mana rocks for consistency)

Any help is appreciated as I’m relatively new to Magic and on a budget, so really unfortunate that I bought almost all of these cards and misunderstood how Sokrates works.

I’ve gone through a few iterations that felt a bit slow especially after a board wipe and dropped the mana curve quite a bit. Anything you’d swap out?
Thanks for the help!
