- Eriette, the Beguiler is a commander that will steal cards from your opponents. That is good but it also comes with problems. Or let's just say there is a bunch of stuff to talk about here.

Me playing K'rrik: "First time?"
I'm not a cEDH player, but I've done a few games with my Eriette I'm slowly improving on. Something I like about this decklist is how many low cost enchantments there are, you're going to need the higher cost cards for bigger plays but often times you just want their mana dork, their esper sentinel, their coggsworth, etc. I will say, stealing commanders with this is the best path to victory, comPLETEly shutting down tron or other 'must kill commander' decks.
One card I will recommend highly for anybody building her is Asinine Antics. I don't see it on as many decklists as I think it should be on. Not only does it turn all other creatures to 1/1s, and build up the 'number of enchantments you control' to absurd amounts, with eriette it also just steals all token creatures your opponents control.
And yes, people will hate you :,)
if it could also affect lands i think it could be playable
bee-guy-lur
descriptive form of "beguile"
to influence by trickery, flattery, etc.; mislead; delude
As for the card, it needed to either steal lands or the control effect should have had some other condition, like Eriette's power or something like that. Otherwise it's very mediocre.
I understand this is cedh, but overall in MtG, The problem with the idea of spot removal being bad, like StP, counterspell, etc. is a bit flawed imho. In all my edh decks, I run plenty of high value cards as well (board wipes, etc) and card draw. So ultimately, the math balances out and in many cases still nets positive. So, theres no prob unless your deck is ONLY spot removal. It all boils down to the deck builder 🙌🏻😎👍🏻
This one is tricky as it has potential but is held back because of Aura's being a lot weaker then Artifacts. IMO this is what I think of Eriette, the Beguiler as a Commander.
Good:
+ Potential extremely busted boards of all your & your opponent's best stuff.
+ Wasting opponent's few Enchantment removal just to get back their stuff instead of dealing with your engine.
+ There's a lot of good low mana cards like e.g. Sol Ring so you don't need to have many high mana Aura's.
+ This deck will only get better with time as more powerful Aura's are printed & unlike other enchantment based Commanders Eriette can take your opponent's cards making it unique.
+ Potential to be a Rogue deck in certain formats.
Bad:
- Your deck won't always synergize with what your opponent's are playing e.g. If they play a lot of "Red go fast" cards your not getting the full benefit of that card you've stolen (kind of the same problem with Vraska, The Silencer from a previous video). In which case it'll be better to build a deck around cards you can always get 100% benefits from instead of 50%.
- Its very mana intense deck. 4 mana for your commander (with 3 different colours), + 2-3 mana on the aura meaning your game plan won't be activate until turn 5-6 at best (meaning most likely you'll fall behind) & unless you can protect your board you'll make yourself the main target early on (because having your stuff stolen will make you the target on the board).
- You need Aura's to make this deck work, so you need to add at least 15-20 Auras just so you can play your game.
- It doesn't deal with universal effects e.g. Howling Mines so if your opponent's key card affects everyone (including the controller) then Eriette becomes weaker.
- Will get you kicked out of causal play groups.
I wouldn't count her out just yet so keep hold your copy(s) & keep one eye on any new Aura's WOTC prints because if we get say 10 broken Aura's in the future Eriette will be a solid Commander.
I don't think it's cedh viable, but the dream of plopping a Demonic Embrace on an opponents Esper Sentinel fills me with joy.
100% agree
Sac outlet and aura returning to the battlefield is the direction to take this never let anyone have any board.
Yeah not feeling this card for cedh.
This is awesome fun in edh tho!
Certainly not a CEDH deck
But definitely a spicy casual deck
I want Eriette to be GOOD!
However, I agree it is just too slow!
threat analysis is going to stop you (or maybe they wont) but you will be annoying for playing Eriette
king making your opponents is also like the SLICER theory
she is still cool!
She is really cool. I might playtest her fun just the cool feeling of playing starnge new cards.
Are there many auras that are cEDH viable?
Emmm there are like NO auras that are CEDh viable. But this commander will make a lot of them good if she is in play. A big if she is in play.
I guess the real problem is there is no alternative gameplan to your commander being in play for value@cedhtv If there is another cEDH viable effect that makes enchanting opponent permanents worth it.
This card stinks
