Early Infinite Combos ruin this TCG

Rosie cotton southlane a 3 mana card combined with scurry oak. Is this is lack of Foresight or do you guys honestly think this kind of garbage is fun and balanced. IF you don't have removal its GG. they get near infinite food and squirrels plus counters. This game has really gone to down hill since they decided to add in these ridiculous mechanics that destroy the balance and integrity of the TCG. Like I need to watch my opponent on turn 3 or 4 break the entire game. Real fun. This isn't the only ridiculous infinite combo that is strait up garbage. Squirrel Girl can make infinite squirrels even if she is tapped, if you can tap creatures for mana, that's another morons idea. Blood Thirsty Conqueror is another bad card that can give you an auto win, they forget that this is a two player game.

What would be the best "red pill" Commander?

Well my buds and I were going to watch the Red pill doc and play commander, so i thought, lets make a "red pill" commander but I need help figuring out who would be best.

Guys I fixed the 4th Seat Problem in CEDH

We all know that 4th seat has never won a game in CEDH before so I have a solution that I don't think anyone else has ever thought of!

Seat 4 should be aloud to play lands and spells at instant speed during the other three players turns for the first round. This will do a few things for Seat 4.

Seat 4 will be able to interact with explosive hands from Seat 1 or cast their noncreature spells before the Mystic Remora or Esper Sentinel resolves.

CEDH decks don't run many lands anyway so player 4 will run out of lands after player 3 most of the time.

Oh yea I forgot, player 4 should also draw a card at the beginning of each opponent's draw step the first round! Just so they have something to do on their own turn, too.

Let me know what you think!?!?!?!?!?!?

I understand this is a card game but it’s becoming tiring that most of the posts on this sub are advice on the game itself rather than social dynamics.

Is reading the card that hard? Tracking life totals? I want to read content on the interpersonal drama you’re unable to navigate through, rather than the game itself. Oh, player A is complaining that you’re playing with banned cards? Cool, then just have a rule 0 discussion and cause an argument in the pod. Oh, player B removes your wincon with efficient removal? Cool, whine and get aggressive towards them for not letting your deck get to do its thing.

If the root of your post is how you interact with an opponent on the stack, then there are better resources on game knowledge and commander deck discussion than the EDH subreddit.

What card when it's played makes you roll eyes?

For me it's [[Craterhoof Behemoth]].

It's such a generic win condition. Go wide, go brr. It makes your coice of commander irrelevant, since many decks does the same.. Like, cmon. Be creative.

And yours?

I could be wrong, but Sonic the Hedgehog is suspiciously similar to this OC by blood_skull_boi84?

Could this be the new Dan Frazier One Ring? Please tell me we have a new artist to turn on and cannibalize. I need those sweet, sweet updoots to turn my heart into an artifact creature until end of turn

Is Ekthi a mecanophile? (elite germ knowledge)

https://preview.redd.it/ta5ditzipbkh1.jpg?width=672&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=51c110928041c12606e18ad3e31b10509dec3064

Everything in his card points towards him inseminating equipment. Seeding the swiftfoot boots. Getting in the commander's plate and making it pregnant. Buckle up for this balls deep card lore analysis.

Let's start with his title, the contaminator priest. Phyresis is obviously a metaphor for STDs and this bad boy's job is to spread it. Not much to say here with how obvious it is.

Then, let us take a look at his art: First, his waist is hidden but from the angle of his torso we can see that his lower part is pressing forward, as if to push his pelvis against the armor.

He is putting a white Phi symbol inside an armor, infusing life into it. The symbol is white and its shape (long tail and round head) is reminiscent of a spermatozoid. Hence he is putting his white stuff inside the armor (god I wish it was me).

Now, let's continue with his first effect: "Other phyrexians you control have +1/+1". This alludes to the fact he is adding a tiny bit of life and strength to every other phyrexian on his side of the battlefield... When does someone harbors a tiny bit of life within themselves? That's right, PREGNANCY. You have him and Atraxa together on the battle field? She's got a baby. That little skrelv mite that's just chilling there? That's right, he seeded it too. Elesh Norn, grand cenobite? TRIPLE PREGNANCY FOR EVERYONE.

Now, let's move towards the main effect: "Each equipment you control has living weapon (whenever an equipment you control enters, create a 0/0 black phyrexian germ creature token, then attach that equipment to it)".
... Do I even need to explain it? As soon as a car, sword, toaster, shirt or whatever gets within 5 miles of him that unfortunate equipment gets germinated into, and inside it grows one of these fetus-like creatures.

Now, the crown jewel of this card, the flavor text: "Only through sacred infection can a vessel become pure". So... not only he infects your boots with his seed, he also considers it his sacred duty to do so.

Thanks for coming to my ted talk.

Someone brought a 2345 card deck to our LGS Commander Night Tonight

Let the Whtz shuffling begin. They’re currently resolving someone else’s Tempt With Discovery.

Best of all this deck already has a custom built 6 foot tall wooden deck box.

And so it begins.

Is it weird to enjoy putting cards in your deck if they don’t cost $70?

Sometimes WOTC makes new cards and then I put them in my deck and that makes me do a big cum. Should I feel bad about this? Should I go to my garage and slap my big belly as punishment for feeling a positive emotion?

DAE?
