Hey everyone! Wondering if anyone knows of some good Roman or Gladiator themed commander or standard decks!
Everything I try and look up is either super old or about the gladiator game mode. Thanks!
Alll the Plains a Helpful Hunter could want. Lol
My brother is really into this card game and I want to get him something related to this, but I’m unsure of what to get him. I don’t want to get him a pack of the cards bc he already has a lot and I don’t want to accidentally get him something he already has. I figured this would be a good place to get advice on something related to this game from people that actually play it (please help I’m clueless)
I was going to buy one of these, but I looked for the expansion symbol of my favorite set when I was younger - Alliances. I can’t see it anywhere. Am I missing it? Does anyone have this? Does yours match the image? Is Alliances truly missing?
Innistrad remastered that is. The set releases towards the end of January. I’d imagine it starts pretty soon…
I think we may already know what The Speed Demon looks like, and I think it’s the demon attached to a car in this art.
My 15 year old son has recently started playing Magic the Gathering with a club at his school. He's been playing with decks supplied by the teacher. He just told me that he would like cards for Christmas. I don't know what to buy. Do I just go to the store and buy a bunch of packs? Can I buy premaid decks? Should I? I assume there are different series. What series do I buy. I would normally take days or weeks to research my options but he just told me this a few minutes ago so I'm hoping you kind folks could give me a head start so I can have something by Christmas. Thanks in advance.
Hey everyone! So I've been absolutely adoring Magic since my brother introduced me to it with Kaldheim, and I have been working on some projects in my high school for some competitions, one of them being board games. I was doing some cards for my board game and then I realized just how fun it is to make these kinds of things and maybe even possibly pursuing it as a job at Wizards.
So the point it is, I'm going to start making my own MTG set revisiting Ikoria (The first set I bought on my own) after the effects of the opening of the omenpaths, with a full roster of original cards purely designed by me:101 Commons, 80 Uncommons, 60 Rares, and 20 Mythics.
The name is Ikoria: Titans Unleashed
Thank you all for reading and for being part of the community that I value so much!
Hey reddit, I'm looking to build a storm deck. I'm not interested in going the generic extra turns high power type of deck however. I'm hoping you guys could give some ideas for some maybe older or just wackier instants and sorceries that could make for some fun table moments rather than just obviously powerful. Any pet cards maybe? Thanks!
Need help cutting cards for my king of oath breakers deck, and any card suggestions would be nice as well :). Newer player here. I feel like I'm lacking card draw.
Started a show with my buddy and we’re pretty proud of it. Here’s our 4th episode and we’re joined by Jake from “Jake and Joel are Magic”
It’s just the two of us filming editing and producing all of it, but it’s a ton of fun to make. Hope you check it out and enjoy.
I am looking to make a jeskai deck with Hinata, Dawn Crowned as my commander. Can Hinata, Dawn Crowned be helmed as a commander for a Stax themed deck?
I run Alela, Cunning Conqueror, and a way to double her or my whole boards triggered abilities would be good
Hello! I usually browse my phone before sleeping (yea bad habit) and love looking at artworks. Last few days I wanted to look at custom artworks of mtg cards to change a bit, instead of usual stuff.
I often browse this subreddit and spot some nice artworks, so I instantly came here to find what I was looking for. But reddit is really bad to browse "old" content related to a specific flair. I only have most recent and popular posts when clicking on the flair, and not even able to sort the posts by date within a specific flair...
Is there another subreddit specialized in custom mtg artworks? Or another website/forum/whatever?
Thanks for your help!
Hey all, looking to scoop up spare prerelease boxes for the homies' Christmas gifts. Based off your experience, which has the better value, Lost Caverns of Ixalan or Foundations?
I'm interested in the future set of Aetherdrift. So far, the information revealed about the set could signal it as a potentially fascinating set. Here are some of my predictions and hopes for Aetherdrift.
-There will be many new vehicles in Aetherdrift. Some of these vehicles will be very powerful - potentially with a low mana value and low crew costs. Some of these vehicles could be viable in standard, modern, and even more powerful formats like legacy. Maybe we can see some vehicle reprints, but I doubt we'll see a card like Smuggler's Copter return in standard.
-There might be a mechanic involving Vehicles specifically. Perhaps the mechanic affects the creature or creatures crewing the vehicle. The crewing cost of these vehicles might be experimented on, with something never being done like discarding a card to crew a vehicle.
-Besides vehicles, I hope to see many new powerful artifacts to emerge in this set. Since Avishkar is part of the set, it wouldn't be out of the question to see many other kinds of artifacts. So far, we do see at least one gearhulk - perhaps we will see a Mox or even a Lotus. Some of these artifacts could be tied to certain planes, like a tomb for Amonkhet or a campfire for Muraganda.
-With all the new vehicles and artifacts in the set, I predict we might see some new artifact hate. Cards that might make artifacts enter tapped or unable to untap. We might see some efficient artifact destruction, which might include reprints. Since we are technically returning to Amonkhet, we might see "By Force" or "Abrade".
-Since Aetherdrift might be part of the Dragonstorm arc, a dragon or multiple dragons might show up. These dragon might serve as obstacles in the race, or perhaps they might derail the story - forcing characters to go to Tarkir to stop the Dragons. These theoretical dragons might be mounts, allowing people to ride them. Perhaps these dragons could serve as artifact hate, as there are many vehicles in this set.
-There might be a mechanic involving a "Finish Line", like how each race has a finish line. The mechanic might involved completing an objective on a card, and once the objective has been completed an effect triggers. Another idea on this mechanic could be that the first player to complete the objective gains a "reward" and players need to compete to get it. Maybe the mechanic only targets one player, and a creature needs to "compete" with the other creatures the player owns to complete the task.
-With Oozes and Zombies returning, it make be possible to assume that token creation might be part of the set. Eternals might re-introduce amass, while other zombies might make zombie tokens. Populate might return.
-With Dinosaur folk appearing on Muraganda, I predict a number of low mana value Dinosaurs might appear. This could make Dinosaurs more powerful as a tribe and more aggressive in certain formats like standard. We might even see some changelings as well.
And so far those are my hopes for Aetherdrift. A lot of people are looking forward to this set. I'd love to hear the hopes and thoughts of others, but I digress. Let's hope this set is a fan favorite.
Have a family member who is addicted. They have a lot of cards and stuff but maybe you guys can help me figure something out to give them that they don't have but would love!
All suggestions welcome?
I had been wanting to do this for a long time but didn't think I had the skills to create the inserts for my storage box. A buddy of mine from makerworld requested I make this and that motivated me to finally give it a shot. I have to say, in the end it turned out better than I could have hoped. Although, there were tons of failed test prints before getting there lol
There are 3 different inserts, a deck box insert, an accessory box insert and a 3-unit wide insert that I use for my Pioneer and Modern decks. There are 2 versions of inserts: one for a Harbor Freight storage box and another for a Stanley storage box. I have a bunch more photos on the model page along with the downloads if you're interested: https://makerworld.com/en/models/871363#profileId-823366
So I'm just curious what are some combos you guys thought were funny and never saw them being used? Mine was realizing you could cast prossh, skyraider of Kher, infinitely if you have him as your commander, for edh, with both ashnod and phyrexian altar on the field and have an extra token each time.
