I would like to point out that Ixidron is crazy in blink decks. What matter if you're creatures are now vanilla 2/2s.... when you were getting ready to blink the lot of them anyway?^^
i think Jaheira's respite is genuinely really cool... it's just a bit of a bummer that it costs 5 mana so i can't just leave some mana open withouth trowing away my turn.
Nice slappers! I'm all about abusing cards like Wormfang Manta and would love to set up something in one of my decks with it. I like how you provide one of the answers with another banger of a card. That combo slaps both cheeks and that same time and makes your head explode. I love it!
@@bettercommander It's like Life insurance for board wipes...I should know because my wife just bought extra life insurance on me. Thanks for Makin my joggin my noggin bruh!
@@nephilimninjaofnibiru2907 It doesn't actually work like that. Note the "....is put into YOUR graveyard" clause. When a creature dies it goes to it's OWNERS graveyard. To wit. Life Insurance cares about non-token creatures dying in general. Field of Souls cares about YOUR non-token creatures dying. Still a great card though.
why the fuck does WOTC make cards that create the situation where a player creates a solitare play situation then whine that they have cards that do that and ban them?
Banning mana crypt and jeweled lotus is weird when they don't touch sol ring. I have never owned a mana crypt, but I did pull a jeweled lotus and its only ever contributed to commander tax in my games. Are they coming for my dark ritual next, what about Jeska's will?! I'm just asking questions here.
Thank God it's gone bro I swear to ja the meta hasn't changed in years it's time to stop I started in 2016 The meta started 2011 It's 2024 yall had 13 Years of the same deckbuilding YEARS 13 I can not wait for new meta i hope they do more honestly Because there's the same cards I do the same s*** but the difference in the name theres thousands of different combos and moves especially if there talking unorigonality on going loop Im just asking if they didnt ban it here how long will we have the SAME META its ridiculous fuck yea run it
The bozos comparing having sol ring + mana crypt + jeweled lotus in the same deck vs. having sol ring being the only piece of fast mana in the deck saying "bleh we need to ban sol ring too" NAH DUDE! Aint nothing like the 0 mana mana positive world
I could not agree more with the Nadu ban. Nadu, and cards like it highlight the hand holdy state of contemporary MTG. The resource generation is egregious, with Nadu's only "downsides" are that it isn't free and it can be interacted with
Some people know the price of everything and the value of nothing. As someone who plays commander mostly with strangers, I value having rules for magics largest and most popular format because that’s better commander brother!
Wow, that's deep and I agree with that sentiment. I've been arguing these cards are overpriced and overplayed and not necessary for a deck for years. Anything that expensive is not worth it for a casual format. These cards were never that valuable to me, because they did something that every deck can do, just a little faster. Well Nadu is another story, but he's just a mistake. His parents didn't want him.
Naw. Everything shouldnt be unbanned. Just cause the RND team is doing a bad job doesnt mean that we should just have no banlist. Theres tons of degenerate cards that are cheap that people would immeadiately get. If yall think that hullbreacher should be run in every blue commander deck... idk what to tell ya. The problem with the banlist is that they dont have a goal. if they had one it would be good. that doesnt mean it shouldnt exist. My only is that they didnt ban ENOUGH
I have a tattoo of James Baxter on my right leg. In Adventure Time, I love that the horse brings joy as a metaphor for the artist by the same name who animated the character. But he’s worked on a lot of stuff-Spirit Stallion of the Cimarron probably being my favourite and I think the Adventure Time character is a subtle reference to that movie.
Them being inconsistent with the ban is my beef. "Fast mana bad" disagree, but can understand the rationale...except when you go "but not sol ring, sol ring will never be banned"...what? They devastated the cEDH format with this, and working off the ban list, you told me Kinnan is perfectly accepted right along other commanders. Ban list either needs to work as a ban list, or not. This "goal post" stuff is for the bird (if there any...video has me wondering now.)
As someone who didn't play with any of these cards obviously it doesn't affect me and I think it's fine for casual. But unfortunately it affects CEDH. Tough situation. Be kind to those who are affected. Be grateful if you weren't. And that's better Commander. Love you guys!
I bought a dockside for 50 bucks, fully expecting it to get banned the next day.That was two years ago and I have got to play it maybe 2 times and it just ramped me a little bit lol
