I would even go as far as to say that i would be okay, for entertainment purposes, if they implemented a little controlled randomization. I know its cheating but you also don't have to go full cheat mode. There probably is a reasonable way to do this. The Production quality is just too high to sometimes have people not be able to play the game.

Separate the deck into 2 piles; land and non-land, and then shuffle each pile. Draw 4 from the non-land pile, and 3 from the land pile. Then shuffle the land and non-land piles together and play as normal. Mulligans would work the same as normal EDH except you'd have to mulligan your hand back into each pile, shuffle each pile, then draw the same way. If you mulligan below 7 then scry from the combined and shuffled deck.

I sincerely enjoy the podcast episodes much more since DJ is on the stage. He brings some honest opinions, different insights, and ends becoming a nice discussion and not a "we both agree in everything, we are both best friends". Kind of a more professional vibe now...just my opinion. Love Game Knights too! Not the last one and the core 19 one though.

I have the Emmara Starter Commander deck, and I really like the idea of using Nature's Chosen for the untap category. But what about Halo Fountain? When tapped, you can untap Emmara AND create a 1/1 green and white Citizen creature token in one move... then tap Emmara with another card or in an attack and create a Soldier creature token. And there are other things you can do with Halo Fountain too. IMO, it is CRITICAL to this deck.

One similar thing that my playgroup did as far as "how much advantage does doing ____ help your win percentage" was in the particular game mode "Emperor", where you have 2 opposing emperors and each emperor has 2 lieutenants. It's technically a group-game, so everyone gets to draw on their first turn. Out of 15 games, the team that went first won 12 of them. That's an 80% win-rate. Spending the entire game 1 step ahead of the opponents was backbreaking. Our solution was to align the rules more to 1v1, where when you go first you don't get to draw at your first draw step. This hand disadvantage seemed enough to help, because the win-rate has since hovered between 45-55%. Also, my 2 cents on the sol ring question: In free-for-all pod games, I'm fairy sure anyone who started with turn 1 sol ring won that game about 75-80% of the time. And the only times they didn't win, was because the entire group was focusing them into the ground the entire game because they basically HAD to, to combat the insane tempo advantage they had. And while people argue that's the "balance" of sol-ring, is that everyone focuses you into the ground after playing it, Is that really fun? For either party? My opinion is no, no it isn't. Sol ring and mana crypt really should be banned along with the moxen, which are honestly LESS powerful but still banned.

For emperor, we begin the game with the 3rd player of team A taking a turn. Than players individually take turns clockwise. So team B all get turns before it gets back to team A for round 2. We don't play team turns simultaneous like 2 headed giant.

A cool line with Nature's Chosen that wasn't mentioned: the enchanted creature can target itself with that second ability. Tap and untap Emmara for a free soldier once each turn, including your opponents' turns. Seems solid on a 1 mana aura.

I think I'm going to "sideboard" a Second Sunrise, but otherwise it was a lot of fun!

Oakhame Ranger! It's a new card that fits into the "pump your team up huge" category, but is way more on-theme with this deck. You can get your tokens as huge as the number of times you can untap a given creature allows. This deck is probably the one place that card can see play.

52:00 I also thought the table joining up against the player that gets a turn 1-2-3 sol ring or mana crypt mitigated the advantage, especially since so much of the targeted artifact removal is in decks specifically to deal with early mana rocks (at least in my playgroup). However, I will say that it has a way of warping the board and making that early mana rocks a focal point of the early game...

I'm curious. I love your videos and have learned a ton. I have a question though. At minute 43:30 you talk about Skullclamp being a great way to draw cards because it kills your 1/1 creatures straight away. However, previously in the video you disucss a number of ways to buff those same creatures to 2/2 and above so this seems like a card that would not necessarily be useful unless you got it out early in the game and to put several cards with the goal of getting a card out that would not do what you want it to do when it is possible to get it out does not seem useful. What am I missing?

early quick mana coupled with powerful cards or a draw engine wins games, which is why mana accelerants in commander are so broken and overused. I play at the mid to casual tier so I try to stay away from the big ones but still run some fix and acceleration like signets and land fetch which keep games at a better pace for me turn 3-4 wins are boring and no one gets to have much fun.

Honestly your end-question is very difficult. In some decks, that changes everything; that puts 4-mana commanders in the board turn Two, which is usually increasingly valuable. On the other hand, sol ring can be such a trap; I’ve kept terrible hands because “hey, I opened a sol ring and two land,” aside from the hate you draw for being ahead. I’m gonna be thinking about this all day.

Have you ever thought of posting not only your game knights deck list, but then an upgraded version of it? Or perhaps just talking about upgrades and removals? Perhaps a 7/10 version that can be taken to your LGS and be a bit more "sturdy"? I only ask b/c despite the fact that I like the way the meta is for Game Knights, no one I play apparently does. Combo's galore. The only time I really enjoy playing with them is when I force them to play vanilla pre-cons, and even then one of them will want to play Atraxa.

It's a little hard to build five different decks for different meta buddy, I can tell you that nobody is going to blame you for playing the obvious answers to combos like stony silence, rest in peace and torpor orb (a rogue counter like memory lapse or mana tithe help as well) the point is that most hate cards work well regardless of what green-white deck you're playing. (Bane of progress I wouldn't recommend here since most of your deck consists of enchantments) If you don't like your local meta and you have multiple decks try giving a new player one of your decks, twoVtwo with two fair decks is more doable.

I'm curious what you guys think about the card Sands of Time for this deck. It's a tap effect if you already have an untap effect and vice versa. Since it's symmetrical there is the potential for other people to abuse the extra untappings; but it also messes with creatures that can only attack, since once they do they'll always be tapped on their controller's turn (if there's an even number of players). It also makes it trickier to leave up blockers. And it does have some anti-synergy with Seedborn Muse and Quest for Renewal since everyone skips their untap steps. It doesn't pop up on EDHREC and it wasn't mentioned here so I'm wondering if it's because people tried it and cut it or they're just not aware of it.

Regarding the Sol Ring and the Mana Crypt question. -> I have lost ALL Commander games I have ever played since 2014 but one single game. One of the players during our last meeting actually said when we played that with that manapool you must understand that you are a too big enemy to be kept alive. Normally I try do dodge and hide in my "Pillow Fort" but this time I tried beeing aggressive with the Red/Blue insect god. I have all the group of manastones and all the lands that make a 6 manacreature playable. I won my first Commandergame EVER and then "Anton" and his brother killed me the next second. I have not been competetive in Magic since 1995 but both brothers has been recently. "Anton" just said that kind of a mana pool can NOT be allowed. I really understand that YOU DO NOT YET UNDERSTAND that the happy aggrement about NEVER EVER MESS WITH MY LANDS! I am looking forward to the Day that you make a "NO-deck" or should I correctly call it a: "No lands for you my friend in this game". Thank you for the clip that made bother to write this as a zombie after work. Keep it up, want more!

I am actually a fan of MTGGoldfish "soft ban list" since I personally find myself purposefully building decks to counter sol ring/mana crypt/mana vault starts. I feel like starting with them is easily a solid 5% increase in win percentage. You should also pull the stats to how many games are won because someone overloaded a Cyclonic Rift, and if it was any other card in that same situation would the same result be reached. I have personally moved Cyclonic Rift out of all of my decks, and have instead challenged myself to use alternatives.

In my experience Sol Ring increases your win chances in 1v1 or 1v1v1 but once there are three or more players to focus you then you probably loose more often. This is assuming that only one player dropped an early Sol Ring and not multiple players.

I think it does increase the %, but only when you cast your commander during those turns, if not ... well, I think you're basically in the same place as everyone else. Since the commander is probably the most important card in your deck, if you're not able to play it early and take advantage of it then you're not really developing your strategy.

wouldn't running a lot of convoke cards give an easy way to tap Emmara? You can use Emmara essentially as a mana source, and then any tokens she brings in can be used for convoke on the same turn

For that whole sol ring debate, (since I don't believe in Twitter so I won't be in those polls), wouldn't a big factor for the turn 1-3 sol ring be determined by the follow up play instead of the actual sol ring? You could drop a sol ring turn 1 and by turn 2 drop a scary 4cmc spell but at the same time you can play a turn one sol ring but have no follow up so by the time you get a scary threat the sol ring might not be a huge factor in casting that spell?

It wouldn't surprise me if an early sol ring is a detriment. In my group if someone drops a sol ring and/or ramps super hard the first couple turns they become arch enemy until they are nearly dead or someone vandalblasts.

one great card for this deck is sidar kondo of jamuraa who is the tetsuko of selesnya

I think if you are last to play the first round, sol ring boosts you up beyond all other players if they didn't drop a solid ring.

I decided to build the deck after watching the game knights episode and I'd like your thoughs on a few things. How do you like loam dryad and birchlore ranger? Are additional sprinleaf drum effects good? I like selesnya evangel too, seems right on theme. How about great oak guardian for the «less lame than craterhoof win-con» role? Untap and flash seem pretty sweet. I also put dictate of heliod for more flash shenanigans. How much should i care about the lifegain subtheme? I put a bunch of lifegain payoffs stuff, like well of lost dreams, crested sunmare, archangel of thune and some things like soul warden and friends. Worth it?

Woohoo! 40 dollars saved! Although you are pushing it with no craterhoof. About .5 percent of a sol ring.

I was really surprised to not see Niv Mizzet on Game Knights. He's the best Commander in the set. Izoni is cool, but I prefer her in the 99 (she's in my Maren deck). Tajic and Aurelia both Boros, do nothing to solve Boros's core deficiencies, and the old Aurelia is a better commander (extra attack steps > mentor). New Trostani is cool but all over the place. Emmara is worse Rhys. And Etrata requires a lot of effort to be effective.

2 cards that seem missing that would help. dragonlord dromoka (not as much) but thornbite staff. with how emmara+a few tutors it would not be out of the relm of possibility to just grab 1 sac outlet and toss thornbite staff on emmara and kill everyone with it.

Andre Bogardus yea I think it depends on the deck. I think certain decks with aggro win cons in the command zone or very oppressive control/ stax will benefit the most bc it doesn’t change the politics that much since they attract hate anyway. It’s just gonna allow them to do what is in their command zone (and thus always accessible) much faster and takes it up a notch at doing that thing much more quickly. Think of Edgar Markova or Najeela in aggro or maybe Sen triplets in control.

Interesting question; an enchantment that just said “pay 2, sacrifice a creature; draw two cards.” Would it replace/be an alternate to skullclamp? Or would it just sit there in the bulkrare binder for eternity.
