Well indeed, I'm pretty sure my Mutant Ninja Turtles deck is not a 7. However even my weaker/jankier decks have caused people to get upset that they're too powerful. If seems that if you're in a group at a power level below 7, every deck that wins is too strong. These are certainly not 8+, though (at least, for the most part).

Well, I did it.

I broke the habit of a lifetime and built a solid 8.

This is what you meant, right?

If I didn't have a throat infection I would be laughing pretty hard right now, I love it.

We can finally put this to bed.

EDHRec came up with a deck power level checker.

The funniest part on the twitter thread was the amount of people who put in multiple decklists before they realised it was an April Fools joke.

People were earnestly sat there, putting in decklists and thinking "7. Yea makes sense. 7 again, I can see it. 7. Sure thing". (That's not a judgement on those people by the way. We all know how individual bias can sway evaluation. It's just human nature).

Goes to show how accurate your original point in the thread is.

As soon as I saw that, this is the decklist I tried:

1 Squire

Funny, my first decklist I tried was:

7x Enormous Baloth

Bet you can't guess what score it came out with.

If math doesn't fail me, it should be... 2401 (7^4).

Btw, Enormous Baloth was one of my favorite cards when I started playing Magic. Such nostalgia!

I started with my Ezuri deck. When it came back a 7, I thought "well that seems low; maybe they allowed a lot of room for competitive decks?" So, I put in the Momir-Vig hackball cEDH list. When that was a 7, I knew the thing was broken, but I wasn't sure how broken. The last deck I put in was my Omnath lands deck I play against precons.

It was then I realized I was the April Fool.

The funniest part is that this is still probably the most accurate power level calculator I've ever seen.
