    Manifest Destiny [EDH]

    Haven't seen the new cards come up yet. I played this deck twice on Wednesday night. First game I had a mediocre start, but some potential was there. One of my opponents made the strange decision to cast Urza's Ruinous Blast at a time when it essentially only hurt me and didn't affect the other...

    Take the Apple, Dearie [EDH]

    Even worse luck for this deck. Tried it once on Wednesday night, but I ended up with a mediocre start of third-turn Eriette into fourth-turn Minion's Return. By that point, one of my opponents was already swinging at me for 20+ damage. It was only a three-player game, and two of us were...

    Spirit of the Pestilence [EDH]

    Well, both new additions to this deck showed up in my most recent game with it. I even copied Myriad Landscape with Vesuva. It wasn't the fastest start, but I got an opening to cast Venser's Journal and used Beseech the Mirror to fetch Necropotence, which let my deck go crazy. My opponents...

    Spirit of the Pestilence [EDH]

    This new tutor is bonkers good and belongs in my deck... -1 Bubbling Muck -1 Liliana's Triumph +1 Beseech the Mirror +1 Myriad Landscape

    Ninety-Four Percent Lands [EDH]

    Another stupid win for 94% Lands. Kept an opening hand that was just Fabled Passage, Petrified Field, and five forests. The fetchland made the hand keepable. Barely. My first topdeck was Castle Garenbrig, so my kill just sped up by one turn. This went off without a hitch (on my fourth turn), and...

    Spirit of the Pestilence [EDH]

    Horribly manascrewed. It was painful. I thought that maybe this would be the next deck I'd scrap for parts, but I can't let it end on this note. That game was terrible. With two Snow-Covered Swamps on the field and Strip Mine in my hand, I thought nothing of using a second-turn Demonic Tutor to...

    Epic [EDH]

    Playing a group hug deck like this can be a gamble. Heartbeat of Spring often helps my opponents expend resource fighting each other while letting me sneak in for big spells like Enduring Ideal or Sandwurm Convergence. But it can also backfire and let an Imoti deck accelerate into a bunch of...

    Manifest Destiny [EDH]

    Omarthis certainly isn't the strongest commander and is kind of lacking in cohesion. But this deck remains fun. I kept and opening hand with both Sensei's Divining Top and Mystic Forge, which should have been pretty good. Well, after my Metalworker was exiled and I didn't have a lot of other...

    Take the Apple, Dearie [EDH]

    Two weeks after building this deck, I finally got to play it. I ended up with some kind of illness the day after constructing this, so I didn't play it that week. Then the following week I had to repair the brakes on my car and ended up not playing any EDH. Well, today it was just one game with...

    Take the Apple, Dearie [EDH]

    In my years of playing EDH, I've built three different incarnations of my Ramses Overdark deck. Earlier this year, I was rocking a Hakim, Loreweaver deck. So when a new aura-based commander came out, I couldn't resist. There were so many auras that I wanted to incorporate into this deck, but...

    Manifest Destiny [EDH]

    Haven't gotten to try this one out so much yet. Used this deck for my final game tonight. Although I did lose, it was a pretty epic game. I was up against the dreaded Themberchaud deck, and the pilot there seemed to navigate this one pretty much perfectly. We held each other in check, then both...

    Sacrificial Baby [EDH]

    New card came out that totally belongs in this deck. So I made a swap. -1 Persist +1 Return Triumphant The change isn't going to matter. I played a game with this deck and got horrifically manascrewed. While that was just bad luck and not a mark against the deck, it just so happens to be the...

    Adventure Awaits [EDH]

    This deck isn't supposed to be especially strong, but I had a lousy start. Kept what looked like a decent opening hand and found myself pitted against Leyline of the Void. Should have just gone with my usual policy that if it's casual EDH and someone throws down an opening Leyline of the Void, I...

    Adventure Awaits [EDH]

    I was so drawn to the silly idea of an Adventure deck that I once built such a deck helmed by Kasimir the Lone Wolf. And I've been biding my time since then. At long last, here we are. Commander: 1 Beluna Grandsquall 1 Amethyst Dragon 1 Aquatic Alchemist 1 Arid Mesa 1 Beanstalk Giant 1...

    Sacrificial Baby [EDH]

    Played this deck last night. Yet again, I really like the deck. And yet again, I'm running into the problem that the deck just kind of defaults to winning by going infinite. After hiding behind Keiga as a threat to steal potential attackers, I was able to disrupt my opponents, pit them against...

    Secret Lair: Angels: They're Just Like Us but Cooler and with Wings [EDH]

    Played this deck last night. After initially falling behind, I was able to drag my opponents down with me with Austere Command. From there, I worked to build up a board of angels. Giada is broken. After one of my opponents cast Windfall, I was able to use my commander to get Emeria Shepherd out...

    Secret Lair: Angels: They're Just Like Us but Cooler and with Wings [EDH]

    For the second time in 2023, I find myself bringing an unmodified precon to local EDH games. The five-color goodstuff deck was starting to feel repetitive. So I'm swapping it out for this concoction. And hey, perhaps I'll make some of my own revisions to this one after testing it out. I know I...

    Spirit of the Pestilence [EDH]

    I was too lazy to build a new deck, and this one came back out from the bottom of my bag for my final game last night. It was a good game with some careful positioning and plays all around. For most of the game's length, everything revolved around an indestructible land that had been targeted...
