I think you may have misspoke. You said Krosan Verge's sac ability can be used the turn in comes into play, but it comes into play tapped, and in order to use it's sac ability it needs to tap.

@TolarianCommunityCollege 8 лет назад

+AA O Yep! I goofed there, but it is still an amazing card for commander.

@Kizer5Red 8 лет назад

+AA O Krosan Verge is so good. I still have mine from when I was learning magic and I loved it then and I still like it now.

@hotrod237lolmaster 8 лет назад

+Tolarian Community College no professor, you were testing us...

@supaaznjigga 7 лет назад

lol, I figured he thought it was going into a Derevi deck, in which case you can pretty much use it the turn it comes into play after attacking or something.. I haven't seen this card since Judgment and I thought I knew all the good EDH cards.. hmm, I just realized I got some of these in the planechase anthology box set I bought and didn't realize it because of the different border artwork, lol.. I actually really like this card.. the others I already knew about and have always loved, though.

@simoncss1 7 лет назад

Amen on practically all counts, aside from the error on Krosan Verge's fetch on the played turn. I personally don't mind Verge stayin xclusiv on Plains + Forest & not seeing completion of cycle. Fetchin up a Murmuring Bosk + Mistveil Plains should b a very unique thing not conveniently availabl to all every color pair. Odyssey filters r probably the R&D lazymen's treasure trove to remember for mana-fixin any future sets. Very under-the-radar in EDH & would probably work great in Standard

@HaruIsOnline 8 лет назад

I'd really like to see a video going over common (and possibly alongside some uncommon) shuffling methods. Ranking them by how you gauged their effectiveness in properly randomizing your deck as well as which methods were also least damaging (immediately or in the long run) to your cards or sleeves. Keep up the the excellent videos, I've really enjoyed myself ever since finding your channel and have learned quite a bit of useful information as well!

@Thecyclongamer 8 лет назад

Anyone who says Enemy colors get plenty of love are wrong. Just look at this video and you will know

@watchandyearn1186 4 года назад

I play two enemy commanders and two allied commanders and even to this day I feel enemies get far less cycles and those it does, haven’t been reprinted (ie fetch) so it’s inflated

@ROKWULF 8 лет назад

Tainted lands are pretty underrated

@SeraphimKnight 8 лет назад

Personally, I really love the tainted lands from torment. If you're running black, it's super easy to clear the requirements. Lairs I've discovered by digging through multi-color lands and have been using Dromar's Cavern and Darigaaz's Caldera successfully. Other favorites of mine; Meteor Crater (why does nobody else play this?) and Riftstone Portal (for Selesnya colors).

@azraelswrd 8 лет назад

+SeraphimKnight I use those "budget" multi lands because they didn't cost a kidney to get years ago. :) As for lairs, I try not to run too many because of the return a land -- sort of sucks when so many of your lands already CIP tapped, so the last thing you need is to return that land. It's probably why the lairs are so cheap. Great for casuals.

@SeraphimKnight 8 лет назад

+azraelswrd Well the point here is lands for Commander, so of course you're not running multiples of them.

@azraelswrd 8 лет назад

SeraphimKnight There are lots of CIP tapped lands though, so running too many lairs AND tap lands can be a bad budget combo.

@glennfinito 8 лет назад

+SeraphimKnight I was going to mention these two exactly, meteor crater and riftstone portal!. I would add thran quarry to that list.

@justinjacobs1501 7 лет назад

Riftstone Portal has an awesome ability, but it's to easily removed from a graveyard which leaves you high and dry.

@solidkingcobra 7 лет назад

aight it's 2016. I can easily find scrylands for cheap now. scry lands are a must have in commander.

@Mikey-nu1pc 7 лет назад

Magnus McCloud why so? why its must have tap lands in commander?

@solidkingcobra 7 лет назад

the scrying makes you soft filter the top of your library. if you can get a blink effect from it is also a plus for example: blink it with Venser if you are top decking for anything... It's stricly better than the ravnica guildgates.

@fakegmale4648 7 лет назад

Magnus McCloud not quite "strictly better" but in almost every situation, yeah

@PlutoDarknight 7 лет назад

Fake Gmale The scrylands are worse when you need Gate synergy but otherwise I do not see any reason for why Guildgates are better than the Scrylands, except maybe for a really, really tight budget

@PlutoDarknight 7 лет назад

Mikko pöllänen It's less about the fact that they are taplands and more the fact that you are running a 99 card deck which most likely has more than one color. Being able to pick between two colors when tapping a land is always better than getting just a basic land instead, even if the land in question comes into play tapped. Every land counts for something like a 99 card deck so you would want to be able to cover all your needs for colored mana while also being able to be flexible about which mana you get from which land. Unless you of course are playing a mono-colored commander deck, in which case having 30+ basic lands plus some optional support lands is completely fine.

@QUAD9s 8 лет назад

I had all but forgotten about the Odyssey filter lands. Great list!

@TopAndGoProductions 8 лет назад

This video is simply the greatest. We appreciate budget choices for our decks and this is a fantastic resource for people who are looking for some budget friendly options to play those 3-5 color decks. Thanks for sharing!

@macsmith2002 8 лет назад

I agree! The Odyssey filter lands are totally underrated, as they provide wonderful color fixing and come into play untapped.

@invisiblehand13 7 лет назад

Great Video. I had completely overlooked Krosan Verge, and it will fit very well in my current deck. Thank You!

@elfguy2007 8 лет назад

love your videos, I just started playing magic few weeks ago got a Blue/Black Modern Zombie deck going and 2 commander decks going atm so these videos really help me out for budget commander cards.

@dannycuper5446 8 лет назад

Keep up the good work! What you do is quite inspiring for guys like me who have rediscovered MTG. I'm adding the lands that I'd suggest. These are from my personal attempt on building a Commander deck with "Jenara, Asura of war". The deck didn't do so well (unlike my "home brewed" Brago that I built with my family and friends) but these lands did particularly good in a deck that wasn't all that good: Irrigation ditch and seaside citadel. The former seems to be possible to exploit, and the latter, yes, it comes into play tapped, but hey, it's a three color land! Greetings from Chile

@Srcsqwrn 8 лет назад

I have been looking in to land alternatives as of late, since I'm starting to get in to Pauper some more. There are a lot of lands I never knew about. This video has shed even more light on the subject.! I hope I get a job soon, and I might be making Pauper decks with really neat, and budget friendly, lands!

@STVMcarbondragon 8 лет назад

Krosan Verge desperately, IMMEDIATELY needs its cycle fleshed out! I was absolutely devastated when I found out that my new, entry-level Imajund Dragons Prossh deck wouldn't be able to run it like my League-playable Mayael list can. Honestly the fact that the effect isn't actually available in all combinations makes me steer toward having G/W in every deck I make...

@JessicaZane4realz 8 лет назад

The music playing during number 3 was awesome.

@noahjones5689 8 лет назад

This is really nice because i was just looking at my esper mana base and refining it before going out and buying them all in one go. This really helps! thanks a ton!! ( RIP Tarkir wedges )

@jonathanbrisson2799 6 лет назад

I definitely need some of those for my budget sliver deck! Thanks for the awesome videos by the way :D

@caydenong3128 6 лет назад

I just keep coming back to this every time I'm Commander-ing. Thanks so much! BTW the Tainted Lands are a nice budget cycle

@ryanbarnes1322 8 лет назад

Awesome and informative as always professor. Im going to go to my LGS and get a playset of each filter land.

@brentonoliver5169 8 лет назад

Thank you for keeping the old intro! Looks so much cleaner and professional

@Volvary 8 лет назад

My favorite land cycle that helps with mana fix? The Storage lands from Time Spiral. They are just so good for fixing your colors for cards like Krond of the Might. In a pinch, they work like a two colors Unknown shores. At best, you are ramping with leftover mana to unleash massive mana turns when needed.

@dbdtog6041 8 лет назад

I just discovered your channel two days ago and I have been binge watching it! It's so wonderful to have a channel dedicated to Magic the Gathering but not just tournament play! I love the idea of Pauper and I'm going to push it at the two local cardshops I go to! Thx!!!!!! I just decided to support you on Patreon! Just wondering ever thought of reviewing the control deck from Stronghold The Sparkler? I recently bought a sealed copy of it for $20 and I love it! It's a creatureless spell deck and is something wizards would never make now. Just a suggestion! Thank you for making remember what I love about this game.

@matsunamida7172 7 лет назад

Thanks for the list! Your knowledge and video really helped me out! Not having a ton of knowledge in MTG as a whole~ :)

@sora09838 6 лет назад

This was a great Video :) i Recently bought the Dragon 2017 command deck and have been looking for some decent land cards. Thanks again :)

@SpeakersGoinHammer84 8 лет назад

5:07 I don't think you can do it the turn it comes out, as it comes in tapped.

@TolarianCommunityCollege 8 лет назад

+BostonBruins115 D'oh, that was supposed to be edited out. Sploops.

@SpeakersGoinHammer84 8 лет назад

Ha, no worries. Just thought id ask to see if I was missing something.

YAY I need to get 1 of each of these for commander decks! Thanks Professor!

@mauriceahlquist6538 5 лет назад

I recently watched this video and ran out and bought a bunch of these lands. I immediately saw an improvement to the decks I added them to. Thanks Prof.

@ecwork09 7 лет назад

The music that plays during the Lair explanation is perfect.

@Tedurbin202 8 лет назад

I think the Alara panorama lands are pretty good. You can use them as additional search lands on top of evolving wilds and terramorphic expanse, and they're not limited by color combinations either, so two and one color decks or wedge generals can still use them. They don't enter play tapped and you can still tap them for colorless mana if need to. They're pretty good in my book.

@RemyUFO 3 года назад

Rewatching some of your older videos. What the hell, I had never even heard of these Lair lands! I'm baffled people are STILL not playing these. Forget Secret Lairs! These are the only lairs I'll be playing with! Thanks for the video Prof

@ethanwiggen3567 8 лет назад

Thank you so much professor budget commander brewer this was of great help. Keep up the good work.

@ActionMan153 8 лет назад

All great choices! I fancy the "Vivid" such as creek and Marsh paired with a little proliferate shenanigans allows for pretty much any mana fix. With my deck copying all sorts of creatures, its useful to be able to use abilities of differentiating colors.

@jtcraig09 8 лет назад

Thanks for the video! very informative.

@insidemtg4641 8 лет назад

I love this video, it helps me figure out how to save my money towards other decks I have 😄 please make more!

Being fairly new to the commander format myself, this video just made building the mans base a lot easier. Thanks Professor

@jeremystewart86 8 лет назад

Thx for the helpful vid professor! Didn't know about those lairs, better pick some up :)

@chrisb9658 7 лет назад

Picked up play sets of all the lair lands thanks professor!

@trondragon44 8 лет назад

You know I have to say thanks! I am currently trying to build an effective 5-color ally EDH deck and been running into the problem with mana starve on one or two colors. However with these budget friendly dual lands helps an enormous amount. So again thanks

@nerdtvch5 6 лет назад

I think I got a good idea of what I want to build now, thanks Professor!

@duckhuntdynasty6562 7 лет назад

I love this video! Numbers 3 and 2 are now a must! I actually LOVE the guildgates, and I even built a 5 color commander (Reaper King) JUST so I could run my favorite land (Maze's End). Say, with all this coming in tapped, I would always recommend Amulet of Vigor. Too bad the price hiked when it found a spot in modern.

@addambarcelos 6 лет назад

quite good video. really didn't know of all these lands

@sang21nguyen 6 лет назад

thank you professor. now i know what cards are going in my arahbo and omnath (rg) and edgar markov decks.

@GSGPINBALL 8 лет назад

Definitely going to look into the Lairs & Oddesy filter lands

@theultimategamer3407 8 лет назад

Thanks Tolarian you just made my selesnaya edh deck waaaaay better with all of these lands being able to be used in a good way in my deck

@DeathGuardian454 8 лет назад

Great video, but I think you've forgotten about Murmuring Bosk! Of course it will mostly ETB tapped such as the TriLands from Shards of Alara, but this one actually counts as a FOREST =D Which is basically a Fetchable tri mana fixer =) Other than that, keep on the good work Professor, I've always loved your channel =)

@sped13 8 лет назад

Awesome video I always use lairs in my shard decks

@nickeckhoff 5 лет назад

Small call out here, but with the planeshift lairs, you can also use them for a one-time, one-mana usage. Play the lair, the bounce-or-sac ability goes on the stack, tap the lair for one of its mana, then sacrifice it. It doesn't make much sense to do this, but I could see there being fringe cases where it might be useful this way.

@joshdavis6830 6 лет назад

Thanks, this was really helpful.

@Slimscaly 8 лет назад

Great video, thanks Professor!

@kadjotamed 8 лет назад

Loved the video! Personally, if I ever have problems building a commander mana base, and I want budget or less used suggestions, I use ManaBaseCrafter. It shows you all the lands that make your colors, as well as prices from TCGplayer.

@ReiAyanami366 3 года назад

Thanks for citing the Invasion dragons' lairs. (I don't play any Magic variant but I 'm still using them)

@mtgscrub8947 7 лет назад

This made my Progenitus commander deck better because it changed up the mana base and allowed for a little more land ramp, thanks Professor.

@Withswans 8 лет назад

+Tolarian Community College I got my Sungrass Prairie as soon as I saw it in my local store when I was building my Trostani Commander some time ago. Also professor, it reminded me of something, I don't know/remember if you talked about this in your Trostani video, that greatly made me want to play in my less favored colors (given that I play Grixis Delver as my modern deck) and for that I thank you, but back to my initial point, Phyrexian Processor has no color identity, feels so good to go land+sol ring+ signet get 5 mana by turn 2, safely pop it in for 20 life and still rank up to 200 life after a while sporting 20/20's on my field.

@kennygrenier4011 8 лет назад

thanks prof, another great and helpful video!

@XxHikidashixX 8 лет назад

One of my favorites is Dimir Aqueduct. Sure, it can't be used first turn, but it can make a land bounce back, so you can have those enter the battlefield effects hit again, like the temples for scry. :D

@schlaackmusic 6 лет назад

Very cool and helpful video! I agree with a lot of people saying the tainted lands are great. Meteor Crater is awesome too. I'm surprised people don't run it more often!

@Jaryth14 8 лет назад

My favorite dual lands are the ones along the lines of Isolated Chapel and Dragonskull Summit and Rootbound Crag. For just a couple of bucks, these lands come in untapped if you already control a basic land in their colour combinations. They're basically guildgates as a first turn land, but as long as you can throw down a basic land turn one, they don't slow you down at all.

@memnarch129 5 лет назад

Even better when in a format with actual Dual Lands. Play the Dual Land first turn and play Chapel and such second turn.

@Chrysaries 8 лет назад

Monastery Siege (2U) is a card I really like. I mostly choose the card filtering effect (draw 2 cards on upkeep, but discard one) since that really helps me stabilize and avoid any mana issues, but the other effect has come in handy to discourage any target-happy opponents.

@adamloomos 8 лет назад

At your suggestion I just picked up a Mossfire Valley from SCG for a werewolf commander deck I'm building. It's a difference of about $20, and the difference will help pay for a Wooded Foothills, so thanks for the video!

@TheMCGamer2012 8 лет назад

I guessed Odyssey lands before I even saw the video! I run Drowned Catacombs in my Sygg, so that is probably why. :) Great list!

@Toleezu6 8 лет назад

Krosan Verge is a part of a 'complete' cycle, just not an obvious one because of how Wizards handled color representation in Odessy. It's the pair to Cabal Coffers that, together, offsets the 4 card Tainted Cycle and re-balance the White/Green deficit after Torment. They specifically created less White and Green cards to make more Black ones in Torment (when Cabal Coffers debuted). Then, in Judgement, more Green and White cards (even Green/White gold cards in a block with primarily mono-colors) were printed , but with less Black cards in the set to make up for their previous abundance. (You also said it could be used same turn at 5:10, but you need some help with an Amulet of Vigor to do so.)

@trunoholdaway2114 6 лет назад

I remember playing with the lair lands as a kid, I was trying to remember what the lands were, this was a big help.

@Doomdave1992 7 лет назад

Krosan verge is incredible! my Doran deck loves it. They really need to finish land cycles

@ShadowcasterZero 8 лет назад

My personal fav unsung hero of commander is the ol' dude ranch aka Kjeldoran Outpost. A must for token based white decks. Sure, you must sac a plains, but it sure does come in handy as a speed bump, or just sit quietly and slowly posse up a swarm while your friends bicker about the rules. Heck, selesnia loves tokens, so populate more dudes!

@JP-id7zq 7 лет назад

@joshuawilliams994 7 лет назад

I've been playing MtG since about M10, but haven't been that serious about it until about BFZ. I have a small, budget collection and only have been upgrading it in the past year or so after the release of C16. I've always had a spare copy of Krosan Verge and when I deconstructed Atraxa to build Ghave, Krosan Verge was brilliant. Not only was I able to fetch non-basics, but my favourite trick was to fetch Murmuring Bosk and Canopy Vista/Mistveil Plains, some great utility/filtering lands that are fetchable. I don't think there are many land combinations as cheap as this for fetching a tri-land onto the field directly, albeit, tapped.

@jeffreylisle3328 8 лет назад

I have learned so much from watching your Channel. thank you so much for all of your contributions to the magic community

@blindcraziness 8 лет назад

I've always liked the "Tainted" land cycle from Torment if you're running a B/x deck they're a must have

@Arcaedian 8 лет назад

Wow, thanks for the Verge I missed that block, and my favorite commander deck is G/W... I also am looking for a better land base for my Scion of the Ur-Dragon deck so these will help, right now I've thrown in the Guildgates and a set of shocklands... I don't even have any basic lands on it which is a bit of an issue... Path to exile and others being an issue.

@monkeymanricky 8 лет назад

I love the mirage fetch lands I have a play set of them. Walking archive is an underrated card in commander. It may help your opponent, but the draw power for a defender is good. The down side is the color scheme u/w.

@Shea4Rock 8 лет назад

Well, I was going to ask your opinion on the 'cycle' of phase lands, with commander in mind, but I googled it and holy crap. Talk about an incomplete cycle, there's only one!!

@travelsonic 7 лет назад

Not to mention that, sure with the Lorwyn filter lands you get any combination of the two colors, but with the Odyssey filters, the mana you put into it can be any color (as opposed to having to put in either green or black mana, for example, to get the outputs), meaning that in 3, 4, 5 color decks, there arguably are situations where these are a little more flexible where the actual filtering goes... at a cost of losing that ability to get any combination of the two colors, tap for colorless mana that you would have if you use the Lorwyn filters...
