      @@ericr4677 yea I can see this deck being a huge threat with all these behemoths. Only reason I want to make this deck is because I have most of these but not all sitting in a binder not being used. I’m a very casual MTG player and casual collector and unfortunately my buddies who play live far from me now. I have an amazing LGS very close to the house here in Chicago that I would love to make this commander deck and use. They have a very nice showing for EDH.

    I might be wrong, I’m new to magic only been playing a year and I still feel like a novice, but I thought that you can’t have cards that could produce any colors in a colorless deck. Like anything that says “add mana of any color” because it would just fizzle out right?

    • @vex_mtg
      @vex_mtg  ปีที่แล้ว

      You’re allowed to have mana rocks that produce any color in any deck as long as it doesn’t have a mana symbol on it and it’s written out as text. There used to be a rule back in the day that if you made colored mana outside of your commander’s color identity it would become colorless, but that is gone. See Commanders’ Sphere in precons as an example.

People complain about the reserved list too much. I do own about 90% of the unique cards on the reserved list so availability to me isn't a problem.
