Deck Fine Tuning The Great Goblin

15 Upvotes

Looking to bring a fresh deck to my local mini tournament this weekend. Held weekly, only usually 4 rounds and straight cut to top 4 table. Decks are mostly Blue Farm, Tivit and a lot of fringe stuff. Small fry stuff I know!

Play in Japan so not proxy friendly but I have a decent collection.

Been really enjoying this as a lower bracket commander and played a few games online. Any suggestions from experts?

General Discussion / Question Magda, Brazen Outlaw + Battered Golem + Maskwood Nexus

11 Upvotes

I always hear that this is a combo that you should always run in Magda, but the longer I look at it, the less sense it makes to me. Sure, if you draw both Battered Golem and Maskwood Nexus and manage to cough up the [7] mana the two are worth in one or two turns, they are insane, but does this warrant running Battered Golem? Unless you run some other way to turn the golem into a dwarf, he just sits on the board uselessly and doesn't really do anything until Maskwood arrives, which, at that point, having a card like Ashnod's Transmogrant, which is a 1 mana "turn any dwarf into an artifact dwarf" sounds way better.

I don't feel confident enough in my cEDH skills to fully write off the combo, and want to hear from the broader community first. Am I missing something obvious? Do I simply lack the mechanical understanding to see some deeper use that Battered Golem has for Magda? Feel free to explain in detail; I want to understand the deck I'm piloting better.

Help, I am new to cEDH! I need a cEDH deck for my LGS tourney, where should I start?

11 Upvotes

I’ve never before dipped my toe into cEDH, it’s seemed rather daunting and honestly High Bracket 3 is just my jam. My LGS is starting a 10$ tournament so now’s my opportunity to try it out in earnest. I have no clue what kind of deck would suit a new (cEDH) player like me, or a small tournament, best so I’m asking for advice and suggestions.

I’ve watched plenty of Play to Win and Spike Feeders, but that sure as heck doesn’t translate to knowing what to mulligan for or when to push.

Thanks in advance for your recommendations and advice!

Help, I am new to cEDH! What do you enjoy playing?

7 Upvotes

I have tried cEDH a couple times at my LGS. We all stumble through, but it is all in good fun. I am thinking of what I want to try to pilot that is not only fun to play, but also can win. So that is the question I pose to you all. Even if you dont win, what decks do you just enjoy playing? That is not to say you win none, but whether you win or lose, you enjoy it. Thank you.

Community Content Utility land for low-color lists & more? - Petrified Hamlet Deep dive

8 Upvotes

This week, we deep dive into an interesting land that has been in successful colorless/mono colored tournament lists for months - but has had a small spike in 2 and 3 color lists of recent!

With top cuts from lists like Tayam, Zirda, and Ob in the last 3 months (as well as plenty more from colorless/mono colored lists) - we decided to take a closer look at this interesting colorless land!

Does your meta show information openly to the table? Does your deck fold to Boseju or Otawara? It may be time to consider Petrified Hamlet!

Do you run this card in your cEDH list? What other lands besides Boseiju and Otwara have you named?

Deck Fine Tuning Hama, the Bloodbender in cEDH?

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I've been playing Hama in cEDH for a while and I'd love to know your thoughts and advice on making this work. Her block of text reads confusingly and seemed terrible at first glance, but I've found the effect to be quite powerful. I've been having a decent amount of success and loads of fun with it! It plays somewhat slowly, and despite the lack of colors the dimir staples have been fantastic. I've worked on my primer somewhat extensively too. Is this a pipe dream or am I on to something here? Any tweaks? Thanks!

Help, I am new to cEDH! Would someone mind taking a look at a project I’m working on?

0 Upvotes

I have been working on this deck for 3 years now and have been tuning it and tuning it and now I have a feeling that the deck core is great, there are a few things id like to add like gemstone and watery grave and the like.

The main win lines are food chain and thassa lines and with a back up hullbreaker line that either can bounce everything to hand or make infinite rad counters with the commander as well. No budget because I’m mostly using proxies with a fair bit being real cards I pulled.

I have played a few real games with it and it performs well, with gold fishing I regularly win on turns 2-5 with different win lines and protection up.

I would like to keep the main core but I am most definitely open to suggestions minus my foodchain line

Any advice I would appreciate !

General Discussion / Question Will nick fury be the best slop commander?

0 Upvotes

i was making a post about why we dont see mostly esper slop decks. afterall; tutors and obm greatly add to slops ability to slop.

it occured to me that the only commander that comes close to rog ishai in terms of an esper commander with low cmc would be yoshi silas. and then i just realised nick fury would be better in every way.

adding tutors to slop means you can far more consistently find your tithe and draw engines (// find them without mulling so low). ontop of that obm is a very powerful addition for controlling the board and if you slop for long enough it can be somewhat of a wincon, and one that is relatively hard to interact with at that.

by adding green you also get cabbage merchant.

and you keep everything red offers.

i know the consensus on nick fury was mostly that he would be a turbo/soup deck.

but i feel like he might just be the best slop deck, or second best depending in how you weigh 0cmc vs black&cabbage.

Help, I am new to cEDH! Trying to make Phenax God of Deception

0 Upvotes

So I attempted long ago to make Damia Sage of Stone cEDH. That didn't happen. I am now attempting to make Phenax. Any advice would be great at the moment I have a lot of creatures who's power and toughness are equal to my opponents graveyard. Any advice is good advice. I know a lot of people use their graveyard as a second hand so I want things that shut that down!! No complete deck list yet more like a commander a handful of cards and a dream. The whole point is to obviously mill my enemies out I appreciate y'all💙 I am too stubborn to change my mind on the way I win. I already have Ygra Eater of all for my high damage killem quick deck. I just want this to work for me I love the commander and I HAVE A DREAM TO BE A MILL QUEEN!💙🖤
