I can't wait for the desert precon. I always wanted to build hazezon, but I didn't think there was enough deserts to warrant it. It's gonna be my first thunder junction buy

Your review just makes me even happier than I was before. I was so excited when I saw the Quick Draw deck reveal & now that I know the commander has ways of going 🤯 INFINITE! 🤯 I'm beyond hyped! (Might even be a first cEDH deck for me. ) I bought all four decks but for sure the only one I'm opening on release will be Stella Lee!

@Ike98250 3 месяца назад

I can confirm how smooth and synergistic Quick Draw is! I nearly drew my whole deck using Stella's copy while Niv-Mizzet, Parun was in play for an explosive win. Crackling Spellslinger on a Treasure Cruise with a Mizzix's mastery in my hand for my next turn made everyone scoop (when I dropped the Mastery on my next turn).

@Beckola44 3 месяца назад

I pre-ordered the 4 Thunder Junction Pre-cons for $129.99 from our LGS. I like the Olivia Commander card but maybe it would fit better in a Vampire deck. Vihaan is a good Commander. Gonti is very good. Stella Lee is better than I thought. Thank you for the video Mia and Beezy.

@Wojtek36762 3 месяца назад

@UnreasonableOpinions 3 месяца назад

The ideal inclusion for Yuma would be Altar of Dementia. For just two mana with him out, sacrifice a cactus to mill four, and every land that flips bits you another token for more mill. You’re going to exceed Hermit Druid levels of mill, and with token doublers you’ll have enough bodies to turn the Altar on other pkayers and just remove them too.

@goblinspy 3 месяца назад

Not every land will continue the chain. It has to be a Desert. Still pretty good but I believe you will probably whiff more than you realize.

@dimitriid 3 месяца назад

27:44 How did you figure 20 to 30 cards? My guess is that you're considering things that are more than just a one card combo like Refocus because I could only find like 3 cards that are 1) Instant or Sorcery 2) Can uptap Stella 3) Can draw a card. And btw this isn't a criticism but a legit question: I might change my Niv-Mizzet//Thassa's Oracle deck to Stella//Thassa's Oracle given how she is *much easier* to cast so on a deck that already it's dedicated to fast mana cedh this can be a turn 1 combo deck.

@devan9197 3 месяца назад

Theres 5 ways to draw your deck although 2 are on the next upkeep so play the card that gives everything flash. Besides that theres 2 or 3 cards that just win the game and 2 or 3 that generate infinite mana. It could be interesting to have a cedh deck but idk if you wanna be playing such bad cards that don't do anything without the commander.

@icecap7484 3 месяца назад

It's interesting when some people talk about Stella Lee and how easy it is for her to go infinite. Look up the old Kamigawa arcane spells. Look up Splice Onto Arcane. Then look up Psychic Puppetry. One additional blue mana when casting ANY arcane spell will go infinite. Land destruction, burn, draw, mill, life gain, creature buffs, they do it all. Stella can win commander games on turn 3.

@krisdaschwab912 3 месяца назад

I bought Most Wanted and Grand Larceny. I have a kid named Olivia, so I'm obligated to grab this and try to make it work. As for Grand Larceny, I already had a deck like this but in grixis. It's 12th doctor with Clara Oswald running on black. The idea is basically the same: Steal my opponents' stuff, use it against them, and get political gain while making copies. I'm taking the relevant cards from this precon out and putting them into the Grixis shell I already have. Then I'll be making a Felix combat damage deck out of the spare parts. Pozdrawiam z Polską.

@weihaigoh9734 3 месяца назад

I can use any type of mana mean I can use colorless mana to cast it. Gonti give 1 cost reduction and Doc Aurlock give 2 cost reduction cast from exile so I can cast 0 mana for the spell cost mana 3 or less, am I correct?

@pancakeburglar9361 3 месяца назад

@strangejace9341 3 месяца назад

I wouldn't really worry about which one is the strongest or weakest. The great thing about commander is that you can always upgrade and tweak decks you want. I'm not going to say that the value is always worth it but it also depends on your playgroup because commander isn't an easily balanced format. So if that's the one that you like most go for it! I will be picking up that one, the quick draw, and the grand larceny one myself.

@Phe0nix1986 3 месяца назад

@joshuarudling2102 3 месяца назад

@hanzsantos2820 3 месяца назад

I'm a new player can someone explain how the twisted fealty combo works on stella lee?

@Marcibarti 3 месяца назад

You need to cast at least two spells before Twisted Fealty. Then you cast it. Before it resolves you activate Stella‘s ability to copy a spell and you choose Twisted Fealty for it. The copy resolves and you choose Stella as your target. As the copy resolves, Stella untaps and gets a Wicked Role. Now you activate her ability again to copy Twisted Fealty again (because the spell itself is still on the stack). Process repeats and as Stella gets a new Wicked Role, your opponents lose one life each time. Repeat until you‘ve won.

I think Plasm capture is great on a budget not everyone can afford mana drain and there’s already a lot of 5 mana counter spells with upside so this being 4 mana is actually reasonable

@LordDrieg 3 месяца назад

I think the dislike for Plasm Capture is the number of pips & not necessarily its CMC. 5 CMC counters like Access Denied, Spell Swindle, Mystic Confluence have 2 color pips + 3 generic so the thinking isn't I have to hold up more specific mana, just more mana in addition to the 2 pips. Plasm Capture & similar counter spells that require multiple color pips means you're restricted in not just the mana you have to hold up, but the actions you can take on your turn in order to reserve that mana.

Whatever team put together the Ixalan precons got fired by Wizards for having too much value and synergy. I like Gonti and spellslinger the best.

Biggest two disappointments was new Olivia is BORING and the desert precon doesn’t focus really on deserts much or cactus plant folk.

Olivia (and the deck overall) is such a disappointment. As someone without Edgar Markov, I had hopes she could be a more affordable alternative for a murdu commander vampire. She only needed to say "When one or more Vampires OR outlaw..." to be what I expected.

I run a Mardu Vampires wedding deck with Edgar. But it's all about the bride and groom, with all the vamps to be sacrificed to the party, (along with everyone else's stuff.) It's such a fun deck to play. Sadly, I haven't recruited any new vampires since Crimson Vow. It even has the bride and groom's wedding equipments with the carrage taking them away.

It's kinda like a much worse scapeshift, unless you're taking a chance at getting free artifacts, but not sure what you'd aim for there. Very good chance to whiff too, which would cost the game.
