I agree that it’s boring for decks to tutor up the same combo every time, but the point I was trying to make is the combos are the issue, not the tutors. My experience is when combo decks remove tutors all that happens is they drag the game out or draw 50 cards until they draw into the same combo pieces they would previously tutor for. I’d rather they keep the tutors but remove the combos, and then figure out other ways to win. Or just be honest about playing combo so I can play an appropriate deck.

I think it’s fine to avoid tutors in casual EDH, many of my decks don’t have them because they don’t have “wincons” per se (instead they just run 30-40 threats). But a lot of times what I see is people removing tutors, but then using draw engines to dig up the exact same combo pieces they would otherwise tutor. To me that often just looks like tutoring with extra steps.

Looks like I just found my next video topic!

That’s great to hear! I’m glad to hear this video and the budget list were useful. I hope you and your Shiba continue to crush your enemies! 💪🏻

Glad it was helpful!

Thanks for all the kind comments, keeps me motivated!

Great video. I think builders don’t even consider building or even researching ways for one sided board wipes. I will tell you artifact creatures and themes make it obvious to create one sided board wipes

Soulscour for the win (also good for never getting the invited back!)

Sometimes you have to assert your authority and not let the lands control you!

What in the casual pod has this ever happened?

The land count is low compared to most my decks (I default to 39 normally) but I have Land Tax and Archeomancer’s Map, as well as 3 loot effects, so the deck functions as if it has more lands in my experience. It does usually take turn 7 to cast Gisela, but normally wiping once or twice keeps me alive until then. Also I can tutor up something like Descent into Avernus if I want to focus on getting her out earlier, or grab Land Tax to guarantee I hit my land drops. In the case of Mana Flare, I used to play that back when I first created her as a commander (during Avacyn Restored days). That deck however was all about equipment and so it could protect her easily, but this deck can’t protect her so I’d prefer not to risk Mana Flaring into her only for her to get removed and cost 9 mana while I only have 5 lands in play. I will say this deck probably has a low win rate. It gets hated out pretty hard, and I’m still learning how to pilot it. That being said, it always makes the games go a lot faster, so I feel pretty good even about the games I lose. In the future I may increase the ramp and/or wrath effects, but for now I want to try to focus tightly on the enchantment theme and see how well I can make that work.

it rounds up yes, but it prevents that much. Half of 1 rounded up IS 1. 1 is prevented.

Hey thanks for commenting. I always appreciate people helping me get better with the rules. However, Gisela is worded in a unique way, and the damage prevention effect is what is being rounded up. So if you would prevent half a point of damage, instead you prevent 1 point of damage. There's a good blog on it here: blogs.magicjudges.org/rulestips/2013/03/gisela-will-prevent-all-instances-of-1-damage/

@@t_daddy_mtg uh that's a new thing learned today, neat! I apologise for the intrusion then ^^;

I’m still glad you brought it up because I’m sure other there are other people thinking the same, so now it’s documented for any future viewers :)

I think I'll do that one next, I just got a few cards for it which should make it run more smoothly

This is so awkward now that I've fixed the title

We also call them Key and Peele, or Lewis and Clark (because they find lands? lol). Gay Kings is new to me, I'll have to use that one next time :)

Moderate fraying on the edges but only lightly soiled

I'm a lover not a fighter

In 60 card, absolutely. In 100 card? Most of us aren't playing cEDH, so that's about 10 short, good luck with the mana screw.

That sounds awesome, do you have a decklist?

@@t_daddy_mtg it gets deleted whatever I do, Reddit/Discord when?

All my decks have 40. Don't know where the trend to run less came from, but it seems to be screwing some folks.
