Activate Cabal Coffers for BBBBBBBB. Cast Helldozer. Pay B to re-roll the planar die. Blank. Use remaining floating mana and tap two more swamps, activate Helldozer, targeting Boros Garrison. Responses?
It was bound to happen eventually through dumb luck, despite my lack of affinity for Limited formats. I won. Better, even. My prerelease deck went completely undefeated. Not bad for a set I didn't study up on at all even a little bit. So of course, I had to snap a picture...

In the first post of this thread, I mentioned that the nickname "Stax" gets bandied about for decks that use permanent-based prison elements of any sort to control games. Since all five colors are used in this way and since EDH is a 100-card singleton format, the depth and variety of permanents...
Hey, no one has commented on this one yet? I held back because I thought someone might have something actually pertinent to contribute, but it's been like a week now...
So a couple of months ago at my LGS I overheard some Pauper discussion and said aloud, "Pauper is a garbage format and should...
I mean, you can't win a booster draft in this way because everyone gets the same number of packs. You also can't really count on pack-openings to improve your chances of winning in Legacy, because it might not be feasible to find unopened packs for sale that contain the cards you could use to...
OK, I feel like getting back to this. In May, I looked at why each of the five colors might be called the best color to use with Smokestack. I won't cover all of the possible multicolored options (after all, there are 26 of them and there'd be tons of overlap). But it's notable that many of the...
Well, it's really still too early to claim that there's an established niche, something potentially long-lasting. But Urza is making some waves in Constructed formats, so I'd say that my hopes are generally vindicated. Of course Urza is the best monoblue commander and is a great card for...
I took so long brutally murdering Mooseman with your broken plane that I forgot to take away a life from myself for Phyrexian Arena. Fixed.

Deck Name: Gitrog Dredge
Magic Format: cEDH
Insight: So many. Where to start? A commander deck that is entirely reliant on a combo between the deck's commander and a specific card can be sufficiently fast and robust to compete at the highest levels of competitive play. This deck needs Dakmor...
Haven't forgotten this. Realized I still needed to find sleeves for Dangerous last night and put it off. Should have just stolen them from the Armed deck I played last game. Either way, I'll sleeve it up tonight.
Activate Cabal Coffers (floating BBBBBBB). Roll the planar die (BBBBBB), blank, roll the planar die (BBBB), blank, roll the planar die (B), blank. Tap some swamps, roll the planar die one more time. CHAOS!
Attack Mooseman again. Lethal damage?
I skipped the usual Commander League to participate in this $200 Budget event run by Magic of Browns Point.
When a robust multicolored manabase is a factor, $200 doesn't go very far. So I figured I'd better go monocolor. I was tentatively going to try Yisan, Wanderer Bard. But then some...
