    Also: The only way the writers of March of the Machine got around Ravnica's 10 guilds led by Niv-Mizzet completely kicking New Phyrexian butt after the failed invasion was to do the good old "if we cut away and never cut back it doesn't happen"-slight of hand. Which is really dumb because they could have just written: "And then the portal to Ravnica closes".

    When I saw the Narset leaked I fell in love! I had an idea and built it with a budget idea in mind that is actually pretty fair, yet fun!
    0 extra combats or extra turns
    All cards are non-creatures
    The idea is just to go wide with token makers in instants enchantments and sorceries and bump them all and just hit with a wide and tall board
    The problem I see is people will probably build the extra turn extra combat versions and she'll probably gain a bad reputation, but I played it before release with my group (proxied) And it was really fun

    I guess I'm gonna have to go to bat for Rocco here. Theyre a surprisingly good commander and i think the 2 power level here is definitely a mistake. I understand the group huggy effect isnt everyone's cup of tea, but you don't have to play around it at all. It's a nice thing to have, but you don't have to run any other group hug cards in the deck.
    I see Rocco as an interesting alternative to prosper decks, and is definitely really fun.

    idk mates. Sigarda power 4 and nahiri only 2? Not saying nahri equip decks are op but atleast she does powerful stuff. impulsing everytime an equipped creature attacks and cheating on equipments she impulses which also fuel her affinity. Sigarda just draws you sometimes cards of a specific tribe and protects other permanants but not herself. Its cool but i dont really see how much interesting and powerful things you can do with her besides trying to give her protection or playing a lot of cheap humans.
    Also for rocco youa re jsut talking about group hug but not about that he is a naya commander who combines casting from exile matters with food tokens. Not interested in group hug myself but naya food exile sounds interesting.

The amount of food he can accumulate in a span of just a few turn rotations is insane and the deck is incredibly synergistic. He’s basically a cooler Prosper.
    And all the “group hug” ability really does is incentivize other players against removing Rocco not realizing (much like you guys) the insane value he can bring to the table.

      @@NitpickingNerds thank you for answering! Of course it’s fine to have different opinions, and in the opinion of many people in this comment section you have severely undervalued the card. For example, if he actually drew the cards for your opponents, your criticism would be absolutely valid, but his ability won’t be an advantage for them every time, it can make them waste countermagic, it can exile one of their wincons prematurely, severely damaging their gameplan or, in the case of some decks, shutting them off entirely, it can make them waste removal they’d otherwise rather hold on to or simply exile something not on curve, wasting them a late-game card.
      There’s so much synergy for “cast from exile”, so much synergy with +1/+1 counters in these colors, so many cards cards that utilize artifacts ETB, you can make them tap for mana, tap for removal, sac them for additional effects, you can make it so every spell anyone casts comes from exile (Knowledge Pool, Possibility Storm, Uba Mask, etc.) but even without that casting from exile is very prevalent in the format, so on average you’ll easily be making 3-4 artifacts per turn rotation and, given that you’ve built your deck to utilize these artifacts, it’s really great value. Of course you could add Dranith Magistrate but that would literally defeat the entire purpose of the deck as well as annoy people while not helping your gameplan. The deck not only does not need him, but is stronger without him. Some people build him as a combo deck with Shalai and Nadaar and All Will Be One, or with Food Chain and Squee, you could take him in different directions, build him as exile-matters, counters-matters, lifegain matters, artifact matters, or have a few sub themes going on and, surprisingly, still have a pretty effective deck, because of the abundance of overlap in synergies.
      And what can Jirina do as a commander? Nothing. She’s a pretty good utility creature that you can tell just by looking at was never meant to be even put in the command zone.
      Of course, opinions differ, but here it seems like you’ve just seriously undervalued and misranked a very good commander because you read him and thought “grouphug” and didn’t think about it any further.
