https://magic.wizards.com/en/news/announcements/commander-brackets-beta-update-april-22-2025 Oh look, the "gamechangers" list just got bigger. :rolleyes: The article doesn't summarize the changes cleanly, so I did that work for them. Two cards have been removed from the list: Trinisphere...

I got manascrewed and then tag-teamed! Kept a one-hand hand because it had Sol Ring and Basalt Monolith. Despite failing to topdeck a second land, I was able to use artifact mana to built a decent board state. One of my opponents was playing a graveyard-based deck and used Living Death. I...

Played this deck on Wednesday night. It was brutal. I kept an opening hand with Repercussion, although my only lands were swamps. Well, I never found a single source of red mana, but kept topdecking more red cards. Died once someone finally put me out of my misery.

Playing this deck on Wednesday night, I struggled through some lousy topdecks. Opponents kept hitting my artifacts with pinpoint removal spells for some reason, which slowed me down a lot. I was not an archenemy or anything, but someone would look at the table and go, "You know what looks most...

Wow. This deck actually won a game. After building up energy with Rampaging Aetherhood and taking a beating, I managed to catch the table off-guard with a combo of Aethersquall Ancient + Aetheric Amplifier. No one had a way to stop me and I was free to finish my opponents off with a flying...

Played this deck last night, but I botched it. Opponents kept blowing up my artifacts and I didn't have enough goblins. It was partially my fault. One of my opponents had Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth and managed to get Filth into his graveyard, so he was attacking all three of us. His attacks...

This deck is more fun than I expected. Well, one of my opponents cast Saw in Half on my Hunted Horror and I couldn't resist the temptation to give all four centaur tokens to the same player I'd given the first two tokens. This worked out well for that player because he couldn't find any islands...

Tried this deck again and the results were pretty similar to the first time. Stuck on two lands for a while, I was able to make a few plays, but the rest of the table got way ahead of me. I did get a couple of big creatures eventually and succeeded in eliminating a player who would have taken me...

What this deck lacks in speed it makes up for in sheer ridiculous resilience. I sort of became the archenemy at the table even as my opponents worked to kill each other despite that. One opponent nearly had me on one turn, and was pretty frustrated that he couldn't get there. Another opponent...

Well, I was going to mention how the first game with this deck went, but I forgot and now it's been a week. Oops. Anyway, I was a bit manascrewed and my opponents got pretty far ahead of me, but the deck did manage to do some stuff eventually. Opponents had massive card advantage and I was...

I threw this Energy deck together because I wanted to do an Energy deck in these colors. It's not very good and I'll probably make revisions if I do decide to keep it around. Commander: 1 Saheeli, Radiant Creator 1 Academy Ruins 1 Aether Chaser 1 Aether Herder 1 Aether Hub 1 Aether Swooper 1...

This is the first time ever that a card was banned in Legacy and I then had to look that card up because I wasn't 100% sure which one it was. Now, maybe it's a symptom of me not following the format as closely as I used to and maybe it's partially just because of the ridiculous pace of new set...
