Hello, I made the invi this year and was just curious to know if there are players to watch out for that will lie or break deals. The point of this is not to harass or witch hunt anyone, I just want to be aware.
Hi, this is Ganesh from Deck Check MTG. In this episode of cEDH Chat we go through all the costs and earnings of a cEDH pro, nothing held back.
Also thanks to everyone that gave us feedback last time, we have fixed and changed a lot of things:
The Apostate chest itself converts helmet/gloves/boots/shield ES to life with no penalty, and gives str + all res on top.
The node's only real benefit is opening up your chest slot, but −12 life/level is −1200 at 100, which is about what a well crafted ES chest gives you. The downside essentially cancels out your ES gains from a rare chest piece.
This means you're using 1/3 of your ascendancy to run a rare chest instead of the Apostate Chest, and losing str/res for like 3 suffixes and eldritch implicits.
Unless the Apostate chest piece itself is prohibitively expensive, I don't see a reason to ever take the node sadly. Last league the chest was reasonably affordable.
TL;DR: You are losing about 40 strength, 30 Allres, and 1/3 of your Ascendancy to gain 3 body armor suffixes and eldritch implicits. I guess you could get some other decent influenced mods maybe.
I just started a cEDH series and this is episode 1, we would love feedback on it. https://youtu.be/0IzKD8ZJO4k
The episode is about Nick Fury and how his deck might be the best five-color turbo shell/deck we've ever seen. He has Rog Si speed, but the white and green upsides(Silence, Grand Abolisher, Crop Rot, etc.) are basically free. My take is he has zero identity, just cheap and 5 colors.
I think he's potentially a health problem for the format.
Balance and Composure is touring with Movements, was just wondering if y'all knew any ways to get the tickets cheaper, they're $54 for the Dallas show.
