Blink in Commander

[@F0restqt]

Hell yeah brother, we love a cheeky lil blink

[@bettercommander]

And... A stinky blink.

i use the oxygen mask analogy to help clients that don't believe they deserve self-care.

[@bettercommander]

Hell yeah dude, doing God's work.

[@danielharrison2383]

Amen brother.@@bettercommander

[@Zeyga]

Two shoutouts in one video?! Hell yeah brother!!! Proud and happy to support such an incredible channel. Truly the best edh content out there. You deserve it my dude.

[@lucaslehn2242]

Abuelo, Ancestral Echo deserves a look as a commander as he is a blink on a stick for artifacts and creatures. Blink Winter Orb on the opp before your turn and your in business

[@CuddlyBuns]

And if you want to be a little less infuriating to the table you can always just keep re blinking the one ring at the end of your turn

[@equivocat]

It’s good for resetting the burden counters and getting a fresh draw, but the protection is from cast only. Master Transmuter, however!

[@lucaslehn2242]

@@equivocat Master Transmuter is hilarious with The One Ring hahaha, well for us, not for our opponents. You could also blink Archaeomancer to return Everybody Lives over and over again. The Fog Meta is alive!

My playgroup is doing a $25 deck challenge. I had bought the Ranar precon and upgrades a while back, but never really played him. Put it together for the challenge and holy cow does it slap. Helps everything is pretty much flying in the deck... Ranar can spit out a lot of spirits. I sometimes forget if I exile something of my opponent's he also triggers to make a spirit. Bonkers

[@bettercommander]

Ranar was on my short list too.

[@EnemyToad]

Ranar slaps hard, dude. So slept on. Plays offense and defense so well. I know you said budget but I have never seen skullclamp perform better.

[@panukoskinen9900]

Foretell is a nice mechanic and ranar is the foretell commander. Make your hand size limitless, blink some mulldrifter and foretell the top non-foretell cards with ethereal valkyrie so even with limited hand you have a nice backup hand safely in exile!

[@GRSX1313]

I have a blink/initiative deck with Hama Pashar, Ruin Seeker as commander. It's really fun to play and it can get out of hand really fast, sometimes I go from having 3 or 4 creatures in the battlefield to just having so many dungeon triggers I have to pull a calculator to do the math. Once I had 3 Panharmonicons and 3 Radiant Solars in play, kept blinking stuff to get dungeon triggers, my final total came down to 300+ dungeon triggers, Yorion and Preston the Vanisher go brr

So I recently built an Abdel/Candlekeep Sage deck, tinkered with it and brought it to my FNM. I was about to do my combo and my buddy prematurely cast Cyclonic Rift and so I used Essence Flux and buried the Cyclonic rift in my flicker loops stack which gave me 2 life, multiple 1/1 soldiers, coloured mana, and 2 card draws each loop, they thought it was fine...IT IS NOT FINE, LOL. Than I explained how problematic getting coloured mana and card draw is by recasting my whole board and than some AND than I redid the loop to build my board back up and pass turn but by this point my fellow druges had realized how ridiculous it is when you loop coloured mana and card draw and had subsequently passed the game. I super recommend that if your new to MTG try out different play styles because by doing so you will learn new things about MTG like in this little story I learned all about triggers, spells and stacking them appropriately to have a super fun game :P

[@JetNAmplify]

Dinosaur blink with pantlaza has finaly introduced me to the blink architype and its so stupid fun. 🎉

[@JetNAmplify]

It's like the first sliver but less broken with more interaction. I acrualy made first sliver and then immediately made pantlaza and I was like, pantlaza is way more interesting since I have to leave mana up to blink. It just is way more fun to play

[@equivocat]

Wernog // Hargilde from Stranger Things is my blink shell. I couldn’t just Azorius durdle without a win condition so I end up creating 30 clues a turn and go with Inspiring Statuary with Exsanguinate or Monumental Corruption to shut the door. Also, no mention of mommy Norn or Gandalf? They’re the power crept blink engines!

[@MrSpiceCabinet]

Hi I am currently working on a Wernog // Hargilde blink deck right now. Would you be interested in sharing your list?

[@erickschusterdeoliveira2662]

that Galadriel being stuck in that expensive as fuck LoTR box makes me so sad because I have a blink deck using Lagrella, the Magpie that would LOVE her

[@Blacklodge_Willy]

The single isn't priced too badly if you're interested in picking one up now.

[@bettercommander]

Like $8 I think? Not terrible, it will come down.

[@solarupdraft]

I'm also here to see what I can pick up for my Pantlaza deck

[@EnemyToad]

My favorite ETB effect to trigger with Eerie Interlude is Archaeomancer 😊

[@SwedeRacerDC]

Thanks for the great video as always! I normally keep my eyes open the whole time, but this time you told me to blink, so I did 😅 Always entertaining. Good commander options depending how you want to go. I would suggest including Zirda if you go Jeskai with the annoying wall. No matter what, Training Grounds is really helpful with those repeated blinkers like Emiel, Deadeye, etc.

[@ghost_horse__6471]

Yo brother, I still to this day have brago and derevi both sleeved but I surely have to dislike someone in the pod to bust either of them out. Derevi is a stasis deck and brago is also a stax build. Keep on keeping on my dude.

[@dreddbolt]

I have two blink decks, one of them with Brago and Mistmeadow Witch in the 98. That's right, partner. ... Livio (Oathsworn Sentinel)//Esior (Wardwing Familiar) ...and it's a control deck which dismantles opponents trying to get at my precious life total. Not just partner, but also partner with... with... Nikara (Lair Scavenger)//Yannik (Scavenging Sentinel) ...and it's about putting counters on my dudes by exiling high-power creatures like Yargle, Rotting Regisaur, and Nessian Boar, so I can distribute those counters. I tried to put in as much ETB stuff as I could, and Tetzimoc (Primal Death) works for both counters (prey counters) and the decent power. Galepowder Mage and Teleportation circle also put in quite a bit of work. Also, a Semester's End is pretty nice. Also, don't forget the dudes who have leave-the-battlefield triggers, like Bloodtracker. But it doesn't stop there, I also did a Friends Forever with... Othelm (Sigardian Outcast)//Cecily (Haunted Mage) ...and that brew has lots of evoke dudes, with some requiring them to peace out, rather than hit the field. The blink is not as strong in that one, but hey, Brago's a hard worker. He can't be in every deck at once, and I wouldn't want a proxy taking his job away from him... lol. Later.

[@manachamber]

I have a Brago deck and he is amazing. Top tier blink commander.

[@jack71854]

the best blink commander is Feather the redeemed, hands down.

[@JetNAmplify]

I wish there were more ways to dodge board wipes with flicker. I know errie interlude. There a few others too. But i want a one mana, exile, return at the end step. That might be sick

[@electromancer2645]

Ghostway is another card that is nearly identical to Eerie Interlude

[@brandyourfan9244]

Keep on making great content brother. 😉👍

[@neimaddamienjackson9256]

I use chulane as my blink commander. With all these in 99

[@Torsav]

I've almost built blink decks multiple times. I always pivot to something else. Not sure if i want to be the guy taking long turns and spinning wheels. Either way, great content.

[@commandercrypt8361]

Aminatou paired with a wishclaw talisman has won me many games.

[@bettercommander]

That's a way to do wish claw. Nasty combo

[@commandercrypt8361]

@@bettercommanderabsolutely! Also, I should have said it before, but it was a great video! I love when people are like "wait, you get it back, untapped with three new counters on it?". I usually search for a Spark Double followed by a Oath of Teferi and just keep it going. Real degenerate stuff haha

[@rascalnicough7376]

4:13 Somehow this is not wrong.

[@grantmurdock7385]

Stay warm brother. Blizzard has a cumulative upkeep, so it can't last lomg. Unless it keeps getting blinked, I guess.

[@bettercommander]

It's weird man, just turned to rain.
