    Tyler here - just wanted to note for anyone considering building the Gale deck that it feels SO good to play ad naus into possible interaction when you know you will get another chance to cast it (from gy with Gale). If I was going to refine this deck I would probably remove some non-free interaction because you just don't need as much defensive countermagic when you get two chances at everything 😂

      You obv have a sense at making decks, would you be able to make one of these commanders at a lower power level? (T6-ish/Mid) I love the idea and playstyle of commander, but I suck at making decks 🤣 Also great job on the win! I gotta watch it a few more hundred times to follow it though lol

      @@fosterdawson7339 yeah but that is probably only three damage to each opponent and isnt really enough to be meanningful. At least archon can help strip away your opponents hands over time. What ends up winning games of cedh is either combo pieces or value engines. interacting directly with your opponents life total is not usually helpful. Thats the reason he probably put sun titan in the deck because even if it is weird it serves as a psuedo value engine.

    I'm not a cEDH player (I mostly play at precon upgrad level) but sometimes cEDH is fun to watch. That last turn was insane. Finding lines with all that interaction on the stack is a feat. My Abdel Adrian deck with Candlekeep Sage doesn't get that complicated even though it technically has combos. It's mostly just pick 2 blink or banisher priest effects and go infinite.

Liked the Abdel build, thoughts on going Candlekeep Sage instead of Agent. You get access to deadeye and all the perks of Azorius control/flicker effect. Draw your deck with candle keep while gening near inf mana and win through thorace or even just extra turns after making a ton of 1/1s.

    • @shatteredskys560
      @shatteredskys560 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      because it's way too narrow. What else dos Stifle and Hushbringer hit in cEDH that a counterspell or a different answer wouldn't? You want your cards to be as relevant as possible in as many matches as possible. So yes, Stifle would be good versus Oracle lines and stuff like Dockside or Godo, but it would be dead in so many other matchups that it's generally not worth the risk. What if you go against Thassa/Tymna or any of the other decks of the format? What does Stifle do for you? You don't make your deck better by running super niche answers, at that point countering one of the combo pieces would be better.
