All these arguments so far are all dandy and stuff for casual... the problem is, all the BEST ELVES are rotation out of t2... and i doubt any1 will play this competatively without MOST of the elves being in Lorwyn block.
Other then that Nissa is a cool CASUAL planeswalker...
Even though we dont know what other elves are in ZEN.
Hey just finished the EDH tourny, was able to get out a sol ring/signet, then after a bribery, i Cycled DECREE of Annihilation.... The look on every1's face was priceless.
I then process to kill every1 with the creature i stole and nicol bolas... Thx for the advice!
I don't think it's necessary to mention this, but Rofellos is absolutely insane in EDH (makes you wonder why they brought him back). When the second-place finisher lost in the finals, he complained that "he never even used the same card twice," especially when he lost to the Staff of Domination combo (which was the first time he got it out).
He needs rebanning, imo.
Completely agree, Rofellos is really broken. When i face it somehow it always comes down turn 1, and turn 2 they untap, play somehting for like 5-6 mana...
If they banned BRAIDS, they should deff ban Rofellos....
Here is the list im working on... Alot of cards i will take out to make it more toward a multiplayer setting... just need to figure out which 1's and what to put in.
Hey I have a EDH Tourny coming up, where its going to be 4 way free for alls happening all at once, then winners play each other. I need help finding good multiplayer cards for my deck.
Im running Thraximundar" target="blank">Thraximundar So the colors are Red, BLUE, Black. any suggestions would be great. THX !!!

Its been working pretty well but i might cut the 25 land for another fallout cause ive had couple flooded games but i know once i cut that 25th land ill be sitting on demigods w/ 4mana on board and thats no fun but its been working great other then that. 4 ANATHEMANCER is a must in my opinion its probably the best card in standard to play right now w/ infested 5cc meta but i do have one question does any have good sideboard tech or MD ideas in dealing with Baneslayer angel or Blue/White control for that matter? having big problems vs that deck right now was thinking doomblades maybe? sounds like a quick answer to baneslayer, which is a pain but so the archmage which counters all the burn/anwsers to baneslayer Thanks for input in advance
I run basicly the same list as you, -1 Mountain + 1 Banefire.... I would suggest terminate/doom blade... Vs Control really Banefire is the way to go. Baneslayer you burn/kill with target removal. Its not like Akroma used to be Pro red/black. Its very Killable.
The San Antonio PTQ was FULL of 5colo. Ananthamancers need to go back to 3 or 4 MD if that is any indicator of the direction of things.
I ran 4 volcanic fallouts MD, and I wish I'd ran 2 or 0 instead. I didn't play against any faeries, and I really didn't see too many there when walking around. I'm sure I missed them. I also never had the fortune of playing elves. Kithkin was there (i'm not sure how much) but I didn't play against it.
Anyway we can get list/Mu report? Even a breaf 1 would be kewl. Im curious at your sbing... How did you do?
Making the 5cc player choose between Manabarbs and Anathemancer for their Runed Halos is value. Note that my original inclination to include Manabarbs in this deck comes from the 5cc side of the match-up, not the RB side. That is, as a regular 5cc player it seemed like Manabarbs was one of the cards that I could not deal with if resolved when I had tapped out for something. Manabarbs is an enchantment, granted, but any Esper Charms they spend dealing with it are less Esper Charms for them to draw cards with.
Hey My sd is very similar to yours, just want to ask if Mana barbs is better then Chaotic Backlash/Puppeteer clique, or maybe Thought Hemorige?
Im still not happy about the Kithkin/tokens mU. I know you cant beat everything, but i really dont feel like putting Goblin outlander back in the deck just to be able to beat them
Deck looks good, i myself plan to pay B/x Discard, probably B/r. May i ask why no1 playing demigod? i thinks its a more solid win conditions then lightning rever (and it passes the Lightning BOLT test every1 is talking about)
Mistbind Clique does NOT target. Read the card again. What you can do is destroy the Clique before they champion a Faerie, then your lands aren't tapped down. Shriekmaw means you have to wait at least one turn before you can kill it. The instant speed removal is very relevant against Plumeveil, as well.
BRG = 3/3 haste for THREE mana. Lightning Reaver is a 3/3 for FIVE mana.
BRG > Lightning Reaver.
What's with all this talk about 5-drops suddenly? Between burn, unearth, Ghitu Encampment, and Figure of Destiny, not to mention the low land count, how often are you guys really worried about having a five-drop? I'm more worried about making sure I always play one-drop, two-drop, three-drop, removal, removal, burn, burn, win as my game plan as many games as possible.
Well many players *(including myself) like having a late game plan aka a finesher. Going all in agro is fine and all, but there are decks that have better board presence then us, or enough stalling cards to survive the early rush... so all in agro doesnt always get the job done. Im currnetly runing 2 Siege gang + 1 banefire. Has been great for me (24 lands tho :O)
Other then that Nissa is a cool CASUAL planeswalker...

I like having stable mana bases, so i can play my cards.
And oh yeah, lightning bolt just got better, since ppl will try to run 4-8 of these fetch lands.
Cant wait for Landfall Hawtness!
I then process to kill every1 with the creature i stole and nicol bolas... Thx for the advice!

I will be stripping this deck alot b4 the tournament, so alot of things will go.
Vedalken AEthermage has been great, there is ALOT of good wizards in the deck.
Lim-Dul's Vault is great, And trechery is a FREE control magic.
Gilded Lotus and Thran Dynamo are both going in most deff.
Dark Confidant has been good 1v1, i usually dont lose that much life from it, but i will probably cut it for multiplayer.
Dam i wish Draining Whelk was a wizards, since i have Riptide Laboratory, which also makes Vedalken AEthermage pretty good.
I like time stretch as well, deff will see if have 1 laying around some where.
Now i just have to figure out where to get a mana drain... (and imperial seal !)
Here is the list im working on... Alot of cards i will take out to make it more toward a multiplayer setting... just need to figure out which 1's and what to put in.
Any thoughts would be great, im Really enjoying EDH !

Just a thought
I wanted to hear any1's suggestion on how to build this (proper card color amounts and land/artifact count).
I know this isnt the funnest, but we are lacking people who enjoy cube draft (and who i will TRUST to play with my cards)
Any help would be appriciated. Thx Cubberz!
MY PICK - Seige Gang Commander!
