I left Magic 15 years or so ago because of those super control decks that don't let you play the game. I'm looking into getting back to playing because Commander seems like a format where I could avoid those types of players. If a Stax player was at my table I would definitely throw everything at them even if it meant I lost the game first.

Check out Godhead of Awe super underrated for protecting Planeswalkers and in token decks. It's a 4/4 flyer that makes all other creatures base power 1/1 well that's fantastic because now your 1/1 tokens trade with everything and people will be hesitant to attack your Planeswalker and if they do get through they are only doing 1 damage per creature

What about me, an aristocrats aaron

My playgroup has: Two Combo Carls, they are the longest playing guys and they are great, but they tend to build pretty strong decks [One of them always does]. A GF to a CC who is very much not aware of what they are doing/what's going on most of the time. Then we have two BCBs, myself and the fifth friend. I tend to dip over into CC because I do have a few combo decks like Necrons, but I play that as primarily a 'I build infinite dudes and swing next turn' deck, my Jodah Legendary Goodstuff however...

Of course everybody's got a Combo Carl in their group, it's the way you're supposed to play Commander

"Complainer Cleavon" is definitely one of the less fun ones to encounter.

Loved this clip, MoMoVsMTG. I crushed that thumbs up button on your creation. Maintain the first-rate work. Can't wait to see more posts from you.

Great video, I love your thoughts on these cards. Your mic seems to be acting a bit weird like you’re moving away and are a bit quiet. But awesome picks on the cards having seen half of them

I think the green enchantment you were thinking of was spelunking. It reads "Lands you control enter the battlefield untapped." Not technically the same effect as it just lets the lands enter untapped rather than untapping them, but still very fun to use especially with bounce lands

Nice that you make commander upgread videos even after a year that the precon is released. It keeps them fresh. :)

Korlash was one of mt favorite carsd when i was fiest learning this game. Such a shame they haven't printed more cards in the future shifted border...

Great video, man. Korlash was my first commander. I'm going to try out this decklist. How have your games been from your personal experience?

Hey man, awesome video! Might I suggest just turning your audio up a bit for the next one? Its a little quiet even compared to your other videos.

The primary person I never want to play against is the WUBRG William; the sweatlord who shoves all the best cards in every color together in one pile, usually supported by a nonsense commander that nets much more advantage than it should have any right to.

Good card to return cards from grave to hand is -Pair o' Dice Lost-,this is legal in edh format.Simple retrurn everything in grave to hand.

Me I’m the threat.

You missed your girlfriend's ex, Toxic Tony.

Where is dirdly Dan ?😭

i am battlecruiser barry each successive deck i build learns from the weak points of my previous decks to turn my engine on faster i will try to stomp the board on turn 4 i will get archenemy status immediately from my pod the instant i drop my commander i will never change

funny videos, man :D

Boardwipe Ben who runs 7 Boardwipes in every deck

You gotta have a proper fear and respect for the battlecruiser Barry at the table. Once they get that critical mass of mana they can become extremely dangerous

I’m not sure what I am. I play Kalamax, and Kykar, and I want to pick up Nadu.

Stax HAS to go first. Then we can play a game of commander with 3 people :)

Very nice! Thanks for sharing this!

I detest Gary and tend to get them out of the way ASAP. It's a fun side-game in between my $taxxxing.

Where would you slot a politics focused deck?

Comboplayers are allways the biggest threath, since you have too little information. They could win from nowhere, at sny time

As a rat player I definitely a battle combo Barl.

I really do not think you should be playing Heartless Summoning as it is a non-bo with many of your token creators like Adeline Resplendant Cathar, Elendra the Duskrose, Elenda and Azor, and Hero of Bladhold. Leyline of Sanctity seems out of place in this deck as well. 4 mana just to not be targetable, does not seem to support the Knights' plan. Since you are playing Haakon Stromgald Scourge, I recommend Crib Swap and Nameless Inversion as reusable removal spells that can be cast from the graveyard when Haakon is in there. Wonder is quite easy to get into the graveyard with Sidar's Eminence ability and should be added to give all your Knights flying.

Im a solitaire Sara

I am combo carl and the biggest threats are the voltron victor and/or the stax stanley.

I’m sometimes milling sometimes battlecruising but the one closer to what I do is combo carl I guess even tho I don’t ever play infinite combos but I do like to win out of nowhere with a OTK

If a combo player has 2 cards in hand and someone else has 10 cards in hand and CANT interact with simple creature combo in ANY way, then they shouldnt be playing in a pod with combos.

Always Stax. I can lose, but at least I want to play in game, which stax guy is making hard

If there “isn’t a combo Carl” in your playgroup, you are the combo Carl

I'm a textbook Battlecruiser Barry

Lmao, dude I know exactly who you're talking about with some of these😂

I'm mostly battle cruiser myself, endless value engines and armies. I hate combo carls and stax

and then there's Tergrid Terry, ready to ruin everybody's day

As the grouphug player with minimal wincons in my group, i don't blame them when I'm considered the threat. Turns out fast decks don't like when the slow decks get free ramp from me.

I don't have a problem playing/against these cards in casual but I think a bigger issue is people don't pull punches at casual tables if they do have higher power cards.

You forgot mentioning cEDH Cesar. The guy who brings a tank to a knife fight. What about Proxy Roxy? (Edit)

What about Lil Bean Benny - they seem unassuming at first but become a threat because people think they're smol beans Side note - I need that jojo proxy of kynalos and tiro of meletis

Im non of these players and it cant be copied based on how i do things irl. Which is scorched earth and i counter everything possible without counter spells

I try not to remove Commanders unless it is ABSOLUTELY necessary. Reason: they ALWAYS come back. Being perfectly honest, Stax is the playstyle that has the most of my ire (especially Brago). Mill is bad to the extent that I now have to focus on recycling (which many of my decks do) instead of drawing into answers and removal. My own playstyle is more of a battlecruiser with group hug thrown in. I do admit that I love running a mill deck if I have to go against stax.

Oh no, it's Vultron Victor what do I... I cast Baleful Strix

Have this in my will, scion of peace. Would make a great commander i thought too! Nice build

yo this is a boring deck, remember edh is a casual format, do less protection spells and focus on your deck having fuel and win cons, you should never stall out and building a dreadnaught should not be the goal, the goal is to end the match while letting others play.

Yet more counterpoints... MLD: mass land destruction is absolutely fine in an environment where massive land ramp and mana doubling is prevalent. I commented about something similar to this on your last video on this topic, about Dockside Extortionist, pointing out that other players should be careful not to overextend themselves. Stax: we've all played in a pod where that one player gets slowed down just enough to keep from going off. Stax is a time management thing, as long as you don't overdo it. Combat buys time directly from other players, Stax buys time from the game, itself. Mass Discard: players are still seeing their cards, and have time to utilize at least some of those resources. If you're not going with a hard Narset lock, there are options. Board wipe tribal: board wipes are good in small numbers, but Grave Pact and Martyr's Bond effects are repeatable, indiscriminate removal, and do what you're looking to do with a wrath, if you can outrun the other permanent generators at the table. It can also save you from having your whole plan wrecked if you play it into a Teferi's Protection. As previously stated, having a board state is a privilege, not a right. If you can't keep it, you don't deserve to have it. We're no longer living in an age of bad precons and moderately-powered sets, so why are we rolling up to commander pods with our kid gloves on? Things need not be hyperefficient, but style, and swinging for the fences, matter. Broken toys make for better forethought in deckbuilding, all around.
