It's kind of weird how we can think of so many things to say about each others decks but no matter how many comments we manage to generate about each others decks we still can't get anyone else to chime in. I was wondering does anyone in your playgroup post decks on vault? I have one person in my playgroup that regularly posts on here but he is also into making standard decks. The other person in my playgroup that posts on here does not visit the site on a regular basis.

Yeah arena is one that has been on my list for 6 months and I just have not pulled the trigger yet, I need to though it's inexpensive. I will have to look at the cliffs. Perhaps I should just use asceticism. Thornling could be useful, maybe make a note to remind you to bring the note with you back to your house so you can finish the comment.

Yeah facing off against 4 poison edh decks could get out of hand really quickly.

Nope that's not the way it works, but I don't remember anyone in my playgroup getting a win by poison. So what I am saying is I could be wrong but I think it's 10 poison damage is all it takes ftw in edh.

In that case I will be trading for the ashes and I will be brewing a minus minus counter deck as soon as I get finished with the other decks I have in my brain that I need to finish.

So I just got back from my local comic/non sport card shop and I feel the need to vent. I went in there just to see if the co owner could pick up a limited edition magic set that will be coming out soon, ( I did not tell her I was looking for M20 intentionally) I really just wanted to see if she would call me after she did some research on a msrp and a release date and if she could get it or not. But I was shocked at her response to me. She said that it was my fault that her store was not a tournament store (I think she meant a authorized magic retailer) and that even if she could get this limited release item she would not sell it to me first. Her reason she would not sell it to me first was because I was not a regular customer. Now I know I have spent hundreds perhaps even close to a thousand dollars in her store, but I am not a regular customer. I don't have any idea how she determines who is a regular customer and who isn't. She said I should go to a named city (I will not name the big city just because I don't want anyone to know where I am) that is 3 hours away and spend my money there. She went on ranting and finally asked me what item am I looking for, I would not tell her and explained to her that it would be pointless to say what I am looking for because #1 she can't get it for me and # 2 she would sell it to someone else before she sold it to me. I think if I am the first one to ask for it then I should get the first one if I have the cash and if she has it in stock and is able to sell it. I was walking toward door so I could escape her store and I think she might have been about to ask me to leave. If I had the choice before now I would buy card type items online over the local store just because the regular guy that works there is a jerk (there are other words I could use to describe him but I will leave it at that) and the markup the local store has on magic stuff is really huge but I do hate waiting for snail mail but that might be a small price to pay. So if she thinks I am not a regular customer as of earlier today, I am definitely not a regular customer now.

Sweet, looking forward to what you have to say about my decks. I can't wait to see your new ones, especially the 5 color brew. I hope that when you have met you goal of a deck of every color possibility you will continue to build decks. It just kinda has me wondering if you plan to never make a deck again after you get to the ultimate goal. But if you do plan to retire ( I hope not) please continue to come to vault and check up on the decks I post so that you can give me more good advise.

Stern judge + Urborg, tomb of yawgmoth and tomb of yawgmoth + Nightmare. Tomb of yawgmoth + corrupt, Tomb of yawgmoth + mutilate, Tomb of yawgmoth + Consume spirit ( there is another one that is better than this one but it's getting late and this is the only one I can find and that's all the homework I feel like doing right now).

Four more goodies I found for ya. Walking atlas, Pilgrim's eye, Explorer's scope and Trailblazer's boots so you can beat face unopposed because everyone plays non basics. Also look into lands that cycle.

How much cash do you have? If you have stacks on stacks I would say add crucible of worlds (if you want me to give you a lower cost option for this one forget it). You could add polluted bonds to make it extra fun for other players to play lands. How bout this use either Blood clock or Umbliicus, get some more replay on those lands. And journeyer's kite would be another good addition. Another different deck from the mind of jester, but I feel ya I get tired of playing the same old decks and I get the urge to mix it up as well. Good try. One more thing I do have a new deck posted check it out (enter the werewolf) you will get it when you take a look at it.

I will let everyone know this comment is gonna be dumb but I am gonna do it. I know on another deck I said need more goats so I can make a tribal goat edh deck but I have thought of something even dumber more penguins ftw. I would have to call the deck "gunter" and for those that don't know penguins were also in at least one video game I am familiar with, look up disgaea.

Overwhelming stampede and just because you are running so many creatures I would say craterhoof behemoth. Vraska, just for her ultimate for the most part it kinda fits in with your deck theme. Other than that I am kinda useless, jester has lots of good ideas and has helped me out lots and lots so if he can come up with anything else that's who you should listen to. Sorry I will try to do better next time.

Okay system snake I will check out you deck later, it's about 15 till midnight where I am so I am bout to go to sleep. I really like the crumbling ashes but I have a question about it what if a creature has more than one minus minus counter on it. The card specifically says one counter, would the counters be considered separate, individual counters. Idk if that even makes sense but what I am trying to say is what if a creature has more than one counter on it and you wanted to destroy that creature, could you?

Hell yeah, I wish I had found that insect queen in the bargain bin I would have scooped it up, it's ultra nutty good. Of course I would have different plans for her, instead of making people discard I would make a draw deck with her at the helm. Geez what a rookie I am, I looked at the no life gain in the deck and still added that card to my last comment. You might want to check but I think when I last looked at the rules even though you don't have any cards in hand you still have a hand and you can still discard cards from a 0 card hand. You might want to double check that though.

Agreed the colossus would be a great add, although I am not sure why the + brute force. All it takes is 10 poison to kill in edh so idk. I am with you on the fireshrieker that is decent. Can't use double cleave in this deck because the w/r mana cost of the cleave, his general is black and red those are the only colors that can appear on mana symbols of cards he adds to the deck. For more info on rules of edh, go to a search engine and type in edh rules that should help if you want to know more about edh. Could go with assault strobe instead, that would work. I will agree with you to a certain extent that surgical extraction is good in the deck but it will only get rid of one card from the grave and other places so, it's kinda meh.

I have been wanting to use Swamp Mosquito. Other than that you have me in a bind and all I can say is sorry that I am not much help with this deck either.

Mirror entity, sorry I am not much help for this deck either.

Temporal Extortion ? IDK what to tell you beyond that. I would like to see you skip your turn or at least your draw phase, I know I listed a card that allows for a possible extra turn and I could be confusing by saying skip no wait take an extra turn. Gathan Raider, Exquisite Blood, Leyline of the void, Null brooch and Bloodgift demon. Is it safe for you to draw cards? Do you care if you have a hand? Depending on how you answer I could offer up a few more cards but I will give you time to think about it. Another different deck, it's hard for me to give you help cause this deck is kinda outta left field if you know what I mean.

I will only look at decks that have a tag.

Shadowborne Apostle, wuuttt.
