Really sad that there is no club for it, but I was wondering if anyone plays MTG or knows of anyone who does as I need a new pod and have met no new players.
I play commander at bracket 2,3, and 4 but I’m willing to pick up new formats
You don’t have to play test! Ideas are appreciated as well! I know you guys know what’s broken, so let me know what you would do in this gamemode.
It’s essentially anarchy commander, with the
commander part being an option. It’s mostly played in turns 1/0, but there is counterplay. We are working on a banlist and could always use help deciding what’s actually bannable in a gamemode meant to push the limits. Also seeing what the meta is.
Silver bordered cards are allowed
Need people who would like to build, test, and play with us! Current rules are:
Rules
- No max deck size
- 0 card minimum deck size
- London Mulligan (no free)
- No Racism Cards
- You may run any number of each card
- Ante cards can be played, but ante will not be taken, you will not have to remove them from your deck
- 10 objects allowed in the command zone (Each Legal Commander, Conspiracy, Vanguard, or alternate deck [e.g. Planar, Sticker etc.] is one object, you may not put any objects that can’t legally start the game there [including but not limited to emblems], this does not enforce any color identity rules, nor commander damage rules, you aren’t allowed 2 of the same type of alternate deck)
- 15 card sideboard
- 20 starting life
- While all cards (including over or under sized cards and thick promos) are allowed, it must not be distinguishable from the rest of your deck
It’s really fun, and we have built a few different decks. Mine have been a infinite mana x/x dragon with haste deck meant to win on play(beginner level, not very good), a flash ancestral recall deck meant to counter the small deck sizes, and a spike deck that makes infinite mana on the draw to play whatever wincon from sideboard. He made a quicksilver deck that plays 25 quicksilver turn and an angels grace deck that locks the game.
Main issue is how much of a must have the vanguards are, as you can start the game with 20+ cards and have so many resources and options. He’s against banning it, while I sort of don’t like it.

ive been working with this feldon deck for a while, and recently I've been trying to make of it more of a combo toolbox where i can fetch combos from graveyard because the deck is good at making a large graveyard and being able to fetch what it needs from there. the issue is, ive been wondering if i should go further into the aggro and remove things that make blockers in order to add faster mana or more combos to fetch? my maybeboard includes ideas that i would like to see in the deck, but im not sure if that is really the right direction.
the main issue is im scared by leaning further into combos i lose my consistency and have to rely more on luck, at the same time, i want the deck to be able to win consistently without either being too slow or being shut down by others, and im just not sure on the amount of each thing i should have.
no budget, as apparent by the deck
I have bitched this car around a fair bit, but this is the first physical injury don’t ask what happened there’s about 107K miles it was purchased at about 98K
For context we are 17/18 and this discussion started because she was sad she couldn’t get some clothes she wanted because I’m trying to manage my money better.
I have heard that i communicate poorly so i have been trying better but i can’t tell if I really am doing better or if im being ignorqnt. Please help.
Update: she said this (better shows her perspective)
if i was telling u a story about how i was sad and said that roein said something like this to me maybe “if your happiness is based off of stuff thats upsetting” you would be like “ugh whats wrong with him” but since its you u act like u cant tell when ur saying things that have a mean connotation. and i want to believe that u mean well but how am i supposed to believe u dont understand tone and sarcasm and connotation when you use it, you get offended by mine, and u can identify it on others? you dont choose your words carefully and they are mean. you are often really insensitive especially when im obviously trying to be comforted. i said i felt like i would look ugly in the clothes and all u said was shut up. i was already on the verge of tears because of how upset i was and u were insensitive. i really dont know if i can keep up like this i need u to make an effort to change. i feel like everytime we get into an argument you dont hear me or try and hear me and its all about you. you really dont take accountability for things you just say sorry for how i feel or the situation. but if i say something like in this situation where i was like “thats mean cuz it has this connotation” and ur like no it doesnt and then later u say it does… u make me feel crazy like u never even consider that my perspective is a possibility. i NEED YOU. to use better language. you arent communicating properly and this time it was on you. you didnt say u were concerned about me you said something condescending and then tried to play it off as something else. if u really felt that way u should have brought it up later regardless because if im super sad i dont want to hear that while im sad.
Update 2:
Thank all of you. This is what I said.
“that feeling is what raised my concern in the first place, I wasn’t trying to punch you in the face but it hurts me when it feels like all you care about in this relationship is what you get out of it, you’ve become upset before when I try to raise concerns about this and I agree those concerns weren’t placed well either, but I don’t like how both times you made me feel bad for raising the concern and it ended up with me having to prove that I will love you and care for you and that it’s my fault. I was the one with a concern, you react avoidantly and nearly break up with me, and then my reaction to that is used to make me feel wrong and only when I say okay if you want to leave me leave me that you start to negotiate and understand my perspective as well. We disagree on a lot, want different things out of life, and both probably aren’t ready for a relationship. I understand that we should both be able to support eachother and grow together to be healthy in this relationship, but that might be unrealistic. I’ve taken tests and this relationship isn’t healthy, neither of us communicate correctly no matter how many of these discussions we have. Our emotions are powerful and our values are different and we always end up making the other person feel bad. I love you, and I really care about you, but this relationship might not be good for either of us. I don’t know what to do and I haven’t for a while but this is how I’m feeling and I want to get it out.”
I’m with my dad and will talk to him after dinner. I reallly appreciate your help and I mean it when I say I love every stranger that took a second out of their day to try and help me. I’ve been struggling and confused for a really long time, and I think I might finally be finding some clarity due to you guys.
I’m planning on making a commander around him- probably artifact focused because he’s an alien that uses gadgets and such. I was thinking izzet or red because of his chaotic fighting methods and movement.
