That's quite interesting. I've been play selesnya for probably 10 years and its a joy to see a gw doing well. still don't compare to the grixis pile in terms of printing - quality cards - but we can see a improvement with cards such as kutzil, sigarda, dauntless, ranger of eos, boromir etc. I hope selesnya becomes the guild of the silence - if you know what i mean - in terms of effect Congrats! This guy should play with you and pontus, Mons. It would be so cool to watch it!
Made a more budget version of Ellivere cause I can't get the expensive fast rocks yet but I must say Doorkeeper Thrull from Karlov Manor does work in the deck.
I know that Spyzer guy, really smart and fun to play with! Although I would like to call him out on a recent game we played where I beat him by basically playing Inalla as a midrange deck, ending the game with a Mount Doom activation.
I think we need to be looking at Kutzil as a cedh deck. Grand abolisher + card draw (even tho there’s a small hurdle you have to jump thru) in the command zone seems pretty good.
The fact that this wins through traditional combat damage is huge for me personally. Not a fan of piloting naus, food chain, or storm decks, I just wanna swing out at people under a bunch of protection. Definitely going to be playing this a ton.
ive played against this man. this deck is brutal. t1 root maze followed by serra ascendant just smashing face repeatedly. the deck is very oppressive and easy to underestimate
I wanna mention something easy to miss; while a low win % is obv bad, we don’t want to sorta “count it twice” by then looking at a high draw % as being worse. Whatever the given win rate is, it’s better to have a high draw % than a low draw %. For any two decks w the same win rate, the one w the higher draw % is doing better not worse. Subtle and maybe obvious but I think it’s an easy thing to sorta miss.
I'm a little surprised Mons doesn't account for this by doing a cumulative win/draw rate by adding 1/4th of the draw rate to the win rate. This gives a better perspective on how the deck is doing as the average win/draw rate will always be exactly 25%.
I played them in mine. I actually had some problems with the ones outside of deafening silence. We draw so much cards that it is hard to empty your hand.
Very unique deck, I still cannot imagine how this deck is able to even compete against other decks in Cedh. The deck seems good for higher power edh only so I'm suprised it can play in Cedh
Yeah I feel like this is an honest take. However, cedh is a spectrum of decks, not just the top 10 performers. I'd put this at the edge of the spectrum between cedh and high power (probably leaning toward high power). It will catch people off guard if they don't know how to deal with it and will rely on very aggressive mulligans when going against decks with faster clocks to get the necessary disruptive pieces down in the first few turns.
