Kept a one-land hand, then proceeded to stomp everyone else at the table with a second turn Otharri (Sol Ring into Fellwar Stone into Reconnaissance to start with, then I drew another Plains and one of my opponents gave my Fellwar Stone access to red mana).

Need to get more games in with this one. I tried it out again, and fell behind on land drops, so I got stuck for a bit. Another player picked me off just as I was about to finally turn things around.

Lost horrifically with this deck. For the first time, I saw someone actually play Break the Ice in EDH. Had my own manabase blown up while other players got to keep their lands. Ouch.

I've kept this deck in my bag this whole time, but I guess I was hardly touching it until recently. Won my most recent game. Nothing fancy, and I benefited from a Nevinyrral's Disk that I avoided playing into. Abominable Treefolk is a superstar in this deck.

Since I didn't think this through earlier, I'm at a bit of a loss as to how to think of this "fifth chapter" in the history of goblins. The fourth chapter essentially saw goblins at the peak of their power, with multiple developments that revolutionized the archetype across multiple formats...

Back in 2020, I build a lands deck helmed by Torsten Von Ursus. Of course, I had no idea that we'd later get a new version of Torsten, one that actually makes sense as the commander of a land-themed deck. Continuing my gradual progress on eventually building EDH decks helmed by every one of the...

Thanks. This deck started out just because of a confluence of two things. I wanted to build at least one deck with a commander from the new set. So I was browsing my options. I'd been thinking about potentially building a deck helmed by Lin Sivvi, Defiant Hero. Seeing rebels in one of the...

After a bit of a hiatus, I guess I've been playing this deck every week. Last week I did eventually lose, but got to mess around and have fun. This week, after an exhausting game with my Titania deck, I invited my opponents to choose one of my deck boxes at random for one more game. Ended up...

I only played three games on Wednesday evening, since my game with this deck ran so long. I was struggling with this deck almost the entire time. One opponent was playing an Orah, Skyclave Hierophant deck and had Remorseful Cleric. The threat of Remorseful Cleric held my commander in check. I...

I won another game with this deck. Had to bait the use of a Haywire Mite against one of my artifacts, as that card is pretty popular now. From there, I took a bit of a beating, but managed to trigger Ayesha a few times, drawing enough cards to set up a loop with Krark-Clan Ironworks, Lotus...

Fixed the missing Flooded Strand issue... -1 Sea of Clouds +1 Flooded Strand

I'm using Jeska's Will in my Zirilan deck now, and I'm too lazy to switch it around between decks... -1 Jeska's Will +1 Seize the Day

Made a slight change... -1 Journey of Discovery +1 Conduit of Worlds

I'm liking this one. The deck packs a punch, but is slow enough that it's more appropriate to run at lower power-level tables. It's also a lot of fun.

Liking the new version so far. It started out somewhat poorly: I got Jeweled Lotus and was able to cast Zirilan on my second turn. I started setting up to deal with the opponent that was the bigger threat, then another opponent cast Planar Disruption on my commander just because it was the only...

When attempting to rank all of my 2022 decks, this one came out at the very top. It wasn't as long-lived as some of them, but I got a bunch of games in with it and the deck was consistently fun. A lot of fun. So fun, actually, that I simply have to bring it back. Here are my changes for 2023...

Changes: -1 Crucible of Worlds -1 Damnation -1 Endrek Sahr, Master Breeder -1 Mox Diamond -3 Snow Covered Swamp -1 Songs of the Damned -1 Sword of Hearth and Home -1 Thought Vessel -1 Woe Strider +1 Blood on the Snow +1 Dark Petition +1 Darkest Hour +1 Myojin of Grim Betrayal +1 Nykthos, Shrine...

Well, I've reassembled this deck, more or less. I haven't logged my changes yet, but the new version is slightly different from the one I played last year. So I'll have to get to work on that. Been busy lately. My first game with this deck, it started deploying some big threats and was able to...

Took this deck to a five-man pod, which was awkward. The player who ended up eventually winning was seated so far from me that I had little idea of what was going on with his board state. If I'd played this one differently, I could have saved myself, but I wasn't really trying for that. In fact...

This deck won a game! It was looking pretty bad, but I found and opening and my opponents had exhausted their resources. I was able to make Archfiend of Ifnir stick, and they had no lines that saved them from the beatdown that commenced once their creatures were all dead.
