EDH Player Psychographics - Turtle Time
Turtle Power Every playgroup has one. I'm talking about the player who never attacks. I'm talking about the player who plays [card]Ghostly Prison[/card] and [card]Propaganda[/card] in every white and/or blue deck. (If not for the color restriction, they'd play them in green, black, and red decks, too.) Every playgroup has one. I'm talking about Turtles. Turtles are […]
General Medicine - Taigam Control!
Doing the Rounds! Welcome to another edition of General Medicine! This week I'm right where I belong in my comfort zone: we're going to take a look at a deck that consists of one of my favorite color pairs, blue and black, and my favorite archetype, control. These two, combined specifically, are a mainstay in […]
The Knowledge Pool - Riku of Two Reflections
Seeing Double Hi everyone! Welcome back to The Knowledge Pool! I feel like every week I proclaim my devotion to Temur in some form, and this week will be no different. In fact, the only difference this week is that we will actually be looking at a Temur deck! One of my favorite aspects of the […]
Epic Experiment - Kung Fu Oju-Taigam
Epic Preparations Good Morning, EDHREC! I'm Bernardo Melibeu and this is The Epic Experiment, a series where we throw all common sense aside and experiment with some unusual cards, effectively changing how we normally build our deck. Is it going to work? Who knows?! We're making science here. When you're an Izzet mage, blowing things […]
Underdog's Corner - Kestia, the Cultivator
Bringing Back Standards Hello everyone, and welcome back to the latest edition of the Underdog’s Corner. For this week’s installment, we’re going to take a page out of Matt Morgan’s playbook and adapt a 60-card deck into a deck for Commander! Why? Well, for a bit of background on myself, I’ve been a Commander player […]
Superior Numbers - Exotic Orchard
An Orchard Most Exotic [card]Exotic Orchard[/card] is a really good card, as evidenced by having a home in 31,793 decks on EDHREC, and that number isn't nearly high enough. Welcome to Superior Numbers, a column that you may never see again but that exists at least this one time because I decided to try and […]
Shape Anew - Sliver Overlord without Slivers
All Your Race Are Belong to Us Greeting fellow EDH addicts. Welcome to another iteration of Shape Anew, where we will create a decklist around a commander with 500+ decks on EDHREC. We’re not allowed to use more than 15 nonland cards used in the commander’s average EDHREC decklist. On top of this, we will […]
Replacement Commanders - Yennett is Odd, But is She Good?
by
DM Cross
Well, hello there again, readers. My name is Seth Cross, though I commonly go by “DM” (and yes, it does stand for Dungeon Master). Now, that introduction may seem familiar to those of you who've read my very first articles here on EDHREC; that's the introduction I used for my first article series for this […]
Epic Experiment - Sliver Zur
Experimenting Epically Good morning, EDHREC! I'm Bernardo Melibeu and this is The Epic Experiment, a series where we throw all common sense aside and experiment with some unusual cards, effectively changing how we normally build our deck. Is it going to work? Who knows?! We're making science here. When you're an Izzet mage, blowing things up […]
Commander Focus — Vaevictis Asmadi 2, the Budget
Vaevictis the Dire... On a Budget! As a new twist, I'm writing a follow-up article to a previous commander. In my last article about [card]Vaevictis Asmadi, the Dire[/card], I made a deck list that I felt comfortable playing. Only later did I look at the per-card budget lines of the deck and realize that I made […]
