Nice video! I play Magda too and I think the faster finisher is Altar of the Brood, once you start the loop of the infinite treasure tokens you tutor Altar, then keep creating tokens while milling all the opponents decks out, at the same time

Magda feels like a bit of an "anti-meta" deck. Since most decks' interaction is counterspells on the stack (due to thoracle and consult), her ability and win condition explicitly does not use spells on the stack. She probably gets a lot of wins since meta interaction (counterspells, silence etc) just does not work against her.

This is the power I also feel when I play sisay sometimes.
@lorenzobonaretti28877 ай бұрын

@aidenwalsh43206 ай бұрын
I played her in cedh back when she first released and the deck has evolved but the gameplan is the same. She's somewhat anti meta and can win at instant speed through abilities like kinnan. It's solid.

I was like sure the combos are nice but that can't be it. Yes Magda is fast but the not the fastest. The greatest strength must be put in the battlefield opposed to casting, just like zur that catches players off guard and they don't prepare against it usually only having stifle to stop such bs. But stifle don't stop Magda because you can do it again. At the best it stops the clock of omens. But that ain't a problem since you can activate the loop with whatever you have at the table.

Engineer cannot bring clock of omens back. Welder can but they will be marked for destruction anyways. I argue it's better having a sculping steel in your library than trying to use the goblins.

The way I play Torpor Orb (in Magda) is a 'political' card we can tutor to stop a win/Dockside attempt. It's cheap enough to hard cast if needed (which can bait counters)

There are few combos you didn't talk about and some cards I would have liked to see! there is the battered golem combo and erriette's apple combo and one of the cards I would have liked to see is uba mask! also we have many versions of Magda now! the turbo combo. midrange and stax versions and we just got a new sub theme in excess damage tribal cauce of bottle-cap blast! also maybe the magda Discord would have helped ya make this to give more information idk.

@Blindaltqq8 ай бұрын
@@cedhtv Thanks! I suspect it's a real number, but partially driven by surprise factor. It's a brutal pull off Magda in a number of board states. Responding to a cast with activation-rod can function like a silence when opponents aren't expecting it as it's simply in play, meaning no chance to crack in response if they don't know it's coming. Hilariously, this can also set up your own dockside, as you can still fire off Magda activation, but no one can crack in response to the dockside to deny you. Crushing pull against Tiv, for example. It also makes you less afraid of oof matchups, as you (ofc) run lines to win through it.

Thoughts on Ruination, rather than Blood Moon/Magus? Often, Ruination in mono red, and Back to Basics in mono blue feel like auto-includes, just because of how effective they are vs multi-coloured decks, for how little they affect you. Blood moon letting them access the mana in the wrong colours is bad imo, but denying access to that mana entirely seems worth

@cedhtv Ive sought your advice before and i dont know how else to reach out. Ive been teying to get into cedh and ive been really enjoying Kels Fight Fixer. I built in a Thoricle line. My question is, in your opinion is Kels viable? Its a bit more expensive, but it seems to do what id expect. I want to play something new. Use a commander that isnt seen as much. Let me know please. Really respect your opinion and what you do. Thank you in advance.

Kels isen't that good sorry. Woulden't really recommend that. Korvold is a better version of this. But I guess korvold isen't new. Rather old. But you should play what you want to play. The main priority is to have fun.
