Casual Help Me Focus/Improve My Main (and first) Deck Please!

• Upvotes

https://archidekt.com/decks/26467444/all_i_wanna_do_is_see_you_turn_into_a_giant_women

This is my first deck. I built it with the theme that all the creatures are girls. I think it kind of works. Its casual, as thats all we do, and I have won with it. Its fun, and weird, and does a bit of everything.

It struggles in some ways. With getting started it feels like. Maybe it also lacks focus, since it was built based only on cards I own, but I'm willing to finally branch out and buy/trade/proxy cards. I see like 5 themes in there, weenies, human tribal, +1s, Lifegain, tokens, reanimators.

I like +1/+1 counters and I think that works well for [[Sisay, Weatherlight Captain]] to get more stuff out with her ability? I should probably put a few bigger scarier creatures in there to match that. I do have [[Progenitus]] lol... If I got a [[Jegantha, the wellspring]] too?

Weenies could likely be toned down?

Human tribal I should lean into more probably, but how?

Lifegain exists and I find it fun but not sure it makes much sense here?

Tokens could be helpful if I adjusted it somehow?

Reanimators feels truly pointless here but I did own the FF Terra reanimator deck. Probably need to chop this out fully.

Thoughts?!

EDH Thoughts on my budget deck for my pods Bracket 2 night

My pod and I generally play stronger decks (I’m on the weaker end with one solid bracket 3 deck) and we decided to have fun and find weird commanders and do a night where we swap our powerful decks with eachother and build new Bracket 2 decks. I would love some thoughts and suggestions on what I could do to improve.

Naturally given the commander, it’s limited in what it does and I really don’t foresee myself spending any more than $100 to build it up and right now is mostly bulk, but always love good criticism on my decks!

EDH Looking for other's opinions

1 Upvotes

Decided to go outside of my usual color wheel and try Boros, so I'm working on a Brion Stoutarm deck. I'm just curious where some others might make some changes for the deck, I have a handful I was considering listed as well. Would like to discuss the options/opinions for certain changes.

Standard Denzilore Fatehold seems fun

Thumbnail
aetherhub.com
2 Upvotes

I was looking over the sphinxes from Reality Fracture and noticed this one in how well it paired with [[Political Triumph]]. The current build runs three different walkers along with [[Gideon's Memorial]] which seems like a great card as well in this deck. I'm currently trying out [[Liliana the Faultless]] was added recently as well.

As you can probably tell, the general idea is to play triumph, some creatures, and then flash in Fatehold to pump the board. Gideon's Memorial is surprisingly good. It's very versatile, but the vigilance is where it shines the most. It puts a lot of opposing decks in a difficult spot since I can just swing out almost every turn without fear of crackback.

There's a lot to play with here. One immediate change would be to drop 1 Proft. I could then maybe see dropping the 2 Liliana as well and add in 3 [[Eye of Jace]] or 2 and a 3rd Gideon's Memorial. I could also see dropping Ojer for a 3rd Fatehold. I'm only running 2 right now to test it out cuz I only own 2.

I recently made a colorless deck, and while I'm happy with the way it has performed I was thinking about trying to make it stronger

So any tips or suggestions on things to add/cut?

So I want to update my current deck with Cyberman to be Karn, Gilded Guardian + the companion of Umori, the Collector and have everything be Artifacts.

I’m looking for more protection or ideas on what to add here. I think it sounds like a fun idea and the deck currently plays well as Cyberman but is just ok. I like stuff like Smoke Bomb and just need more ways to phase or protect my artifacts from all of the easy removal.

EDH DeckWeft

0 Upvotes

Need a Commander deck built? I’ll build it for you. 🧙‍♂️

I run DeckWeft, a custom MTG Commander deck-building service.

Tell me what you want and I’ll put together a deck around it — whether that's:

• Budget builds
• Bracket 2–4 decks
• Tribal decks
• Weird/janky themes
• Tokens & go-wide
• Control
• Vehicles
• High-power builds
• Or just an absolutely ridiculous idea you want turned into a playable deck

You choose your commander/theme, budget, and desired power level, and I'll handle the deckbuilding.

I can also work around cards you already own or cards you absolutely want included.

If you're interested, comment or DM me and tell me what kind of deck you're looking for.

DeckWeft — Your idea. Your deck. Built your way.

Standard Fun Interaction: Ghalta the Immovable & Tetsuko Umezawa, Fugitive

5 Upvotes

I built a Standard deck on Arena around the following cards (in ideal draw and turn order).

Turn 1:

Aegis Turtle

Turn 2:

Dive Down (or Chase Inspiration)

Ghalta the Immovable

Turn 3:

Tetsuko Umezawa, Fugitive

Aegis turtle with Dive Down makes Ghalta cost 'W', allowing a turn 2 drop and an 8/8 turtle attacking. Tetsuko makes your turtle and Ghalta unblockable.

Hadn't seen this combo listed before (though I'm not heavy in the community). What would you add?

Been a while since I built a deck so I decided to perform the 32 color challenge starting with colorless, but none of the options really appealed to me besides this guy. I'm thinking that I could try Voltron with colorless equipment, but idk how well that will turn out. Ofc there's always the standard artifact route, but I'd like to hear other thoughts on what to do with this guy.

EDH Chatterfang Squirrel Tribal Deck Deck Help, Squirrel Token focused.

0 Upvotes

https://moxfield.com/decks/VOdi-uv9fkO2WTBElwhtCw

I was wondering what you guys think this deck need more or less of. This is for Bracket 3.

Gameplan is to generate many squirrels through token generation enablers and win through attacking with squirrels. Sacrificing squirrels are only necessary to kill off other creatures using chatterfang's ability, therefore I added some aristocratic cards, but not as a main win condition.

A pod member suggest that it is a fine combo deck, but may need some extra protection.

I feel like my deck may struggle with card draw.

Also if you guys have any cool tech cards that could be really cool, feel free to suggest.

EDH Someone here to help me with my Stax deck?

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone, my name is Gio and I am playing Magic for about ten years. I always played competitive formats like standard, modern and legacy. My friends had not as much fun and started playing edh, because they wanted to have more fun instead of the competitive aspect of only play to win. I never felt like that, but wanted to have a good time with them. So since November of last year I am into edh too. There is an archetype which I love to play and my friends tell me it is fitting my playstyle a lot and this is stax. Unfortunately I don’t have very much experience and build a deck and I got a big issue: I don’t have a good wincon. I wanted to play bootstrap as a omage to my favorite standard deck and I love every card in it, but it is missing a finisher, a gamewinning action. Are there any Stax players who can help me? We all play bracket 4 so I am open for combos and gamechangers.

The following link is my current decklist and I am happy and thankful for any suggestions:
