Tune it to the limit and beat them up! They'll learn to listen to your warnings...

Humans have one problem: there are so many good humans it becomes hard to make the cut for the best ones!

I'm glad my deck will help your friends. Do they have their decks on this page? I would like to take a look

I love this. Do you have this deck on paper with all the alternate arts? It's a joy to watch the visual spoiler. That Nature's Lore and Mystic Remora... I love them.

That's a nice card, I didn't even knew it existed!

However, I don't have a go-wide strategy: when I play this deck I usually have 3 or 4 creatures on the board. It would be like Slagwurm Armor, and that was cut from the deck.

I've not tried Stoneskin yet, but I think the instant speed makes it an alternate wincon by commander damage. Also I'd prefer Gauntlets of Light or Treefolk Umbra to have some redundancy if Doran gets too targeted.

I still get excited when some new card with "+0/+X" comes out. Thanks for the suggestion!

I've been wondering if I should put it in the deck or not. It's not a card I'd like to see in the late game, but it works as a third Collective Voyage / New Frontiers.

The Ghostly Prison-like cards have been underperforming, so I'm going to replace them, and I'll maybe try Veteran Explorer. Thanks for the suggestion!

I hope you enjoy this deck. And if they ignore your warning and keep targeting you, just go full power and smash them!

It doesn't matter how much you say "it's not the usual Korvold deck"... everyone is going to look at you and target Korvold.

Great deck as always.

Hey, try swapping Return to Nature for Sundering Vitae. Convoke is great for having Kalamax tapped and making sure the spell is being copied.
I also like to have some combat tricks for an alternate wincon, like Berserk as you said, and also Invigorating Surge (only with two previous +1/+1 counters on Kalamax and it becomes big enough to kill), Hadana's Climb and Kessig Wolf Run.
Also think about adding Quandrix Apprentice, it is a good cheap option to draw the lands you need.

Commander Discussion / Re: How consistent is your playgroup? And how does that affect your deck building?

« am: Mai 05, 2021, 10:57:12 Vormittag »

Hi, I have the same playgroup for years, and I tend to follow some rules.

They have a lot of removal and board wipes (hitting nonland permanents), so I don't use a lot of artifact-based ramp (sol ring, signets, etc.), and I build my decks with extra protection (counterspells, boros charm/heroic intervention). Also I have less board wipes, they use them for me

My friends are under the impression that "the player with the most cards in hand must be the one who is going to win", so it makes him/her a target. I try to use fewer draw cards so that I go unnoticed.

They also talk a lot and form alliances, so a little bit of "politics" never hurts...

Nice ideas! I'm adding Chandra's Ignition to the deck, and maybe I should get  Blazing Sunsteel too
I find most pirates hard to block, but Cosmotronic Wave could be a cool addition!

General Magic / Re: Rule question - flipcards with land on one side

« am: Oktober 08, 2020, 12:21:47 Nachmittag »

Tbh if you're right and one can play the MDFC as land from the top but can't tutor for it with Expedition Map, I find it really confusing. For me both actions are checking the cardtype of a card where in one case the back side counts and in the other case it doesn't But that might be just me, who is not best friends with advanced stack knowledge, if that really is the point that makes the difference here.

I'd stick with this: if an effect allow you to PLAY a land, you can play the MDFC as a land. But in any other cases, it is not a land.

Like Mystic Forge lets you play creatures with morph from the top of your library, but you can't search for them with Sanctum of Ugin because they are normally not a colorless card.

« am: September 20, 2020, 04:16:10 Nachmittag »

I pay if the opponent might have cards like Exsanguinate, Banefire or something like that, or if there's some artifact synergy.

Last week a friend had like 30 treasure tokens with his Alesha deck and an empty hand so they were almost useless.

What do the little asterisks mean? I have seen them in a lot of decks.

That cards are from yet unreleased sets, such as Zendikar Rising
