I currently have a custom EDH Deck and a powered up precon, so this just completely blows me out of the water. I love seeing others decks, and this was very enjoyable.
Yarok is my favorite deck so I've been blinging it out since I opened it at prerelease. My deck has a much lower number of instants and sorceries (leaning heavily into the permanent theme). Other than that our decks are about 75% the same.
What are the deck boxes that you use ? Did you modify them ,but I can’t find Ultimate Guard deck boxes with those pegs to attach a plate with the deck name .
You have an insane amount of cards haha! I’m working on an Alela stax / token EDH deck now which interested me more than the Eldrazi colorless big boy deck. I’ll get around to finishing both…. Maybe haha
@@vex_mtg I’m a huge fan of MTG Art and just got into card altering / creating tokens so I’m very interested to start some bad ass foil Faerie tokens for Alela and Bitterblossom. I’m playing Divine Visitation to turn these tokens into 4/4 angels so I might have get my hands on more of those awesome Zendikar rising foil angel tokens as well haha.
@Burnt Toast, I've had a hard time finding any supplies lately. I hope they are still selling more because I need at least 6 more for the decks I'm missing.
I ordered one off of Amazon just to see if it is the same it looked a little different in the picture but it should be the same. It was $7 but that was the only option ,I found some somewhere else but they wanted $50 for one.
@LilyPenguin123, Niv is really fun, I'll have to put it on the list, hopefully they come out with a really cool cards that makes me want to upgrade. R.I.P Hullbreacher.
@DeltalDelta I’m not exactly sure, but it’s probably up there. I try not to think of how much things are worth, I just enjoy collecting and deck building.
I’m totally with you on getting bored of the full art lands… I’m digging the old school lands more now from ice age and maybe dabble into some of the arena Urzas saga lands which are bad ass.
I've collected one of every full-art land from the 'Un' sets, but thats about it. The full-art, foil modal lands are beautiful though I love them sooooo much. I have the original set of 10 and the secret lair ones split between 2 commander decks for flavor.
@Logan Williams, what about a lot of time. I've had a lot of time in the collecting world where I've bought cards for pennies on the dollar way before commander was really a thing. But if I would have to say, I have a problem ... which I'm trying to solve with RU-vid videos!
@@vex_mtg don't worry dude. people search for this content and they bitch about it if they find it impressive. you may have time, problems and money and none of that is this guy's business.
If you can’t afford the card, you shouldn’t be able to play it is how I feel. Magic is a pay to play game… if you want to put a piece of paper to the back of a magic card that is written underground Sea or Black lotus, then you automatically lose…
@@fungalcreature-3668 that's fair it just seems like proxy players often use this question to pressure content creators into validating their use of proxies because the creator doesn't want to come across as an asshole
TLDR warning: My stance would be: If I want to build an EDH deck with a certain "pricy" commander for lets say vampire trible where only Edgar Markov fits what I want (by the way: hate the "option" of oversized cards) I would consider to proxy only the commander card, being open about it and li Ike using a custom card art. I tend to build many budget decks instead of creating costly ones. My rule is to never pay more than 20 Euros for one single card. Building budget is also very effective in my playgroup as we all tend to do that. We are really casual players, precon / upgraded precon level of gameplay. The most broken and costly cards e.g. black lotus would never be played by one of us. Often there are cheaper not that broken alternatives of staples. We as a group are more on a policy of investment for fun instead of investment for strong cards. If you are more on an investment side: I can respect that, wouldnt say its necessary but understandable. I would always try to be playgroup-oriented. In our case mid 20s people with other financial worries and hobbies like video games, ... That being said I personally would not proxy other cards in my 99. The professor suggests to proxy before buying the actual pricy card and talk with your group about it . Havent done that but I think thats a smart move. The most important aspect is the fun your playgroup and you have. If a card is just so cool to you or "irreplacable" and you wish to play with it but its high price is the only thing in your way, then I would say proxying is ok if your people are onboard. Though I would suggest proxying as few cards as possible. There are many cool budget alternatives out there. (If your playgroup knows nothing other than cEDH staples and vintage META cards and you dont want to spend that money then have fun with your printer)
