    Sets [C15] Commander 2015 Spoiler Thread

    I resent the idea that song of the dryads should even be in the same paragraph as true name nemesis. Beast within was in a proper set and you don't fuckin care

    Card/Deck The Simic Combine

    The idea of defending a single large threat doesn't have to be limited to UW heroic. What if we leaned hard in the quarion dryad miracle gro direction? Assuming your cube isn't going to punish grey ogre too hard, you've got chasm skulker, lorescale coatl, delver of secrets, alongside daze, force...

    Sounds good mate, though I'm about 80% sure you're overusing the word trainwreck here :P

    Basically 4 mana make 4 1/1s would be playable, and this goes up from there. Playing with 4 of them in your 60 does have some sweet moments with the shuffle clause where you get to cast more than you would otherwise. Problem is nobody wants to play mono green unless that translated to playing...

    Alright hold up I missed this :P B1 2/1 Mesmeric Fiend was be real strong when I had it. Not like Tarmogopf over the curve strong, but like Shriekmaw or Lightning Bolt strong. Good, but likely not actually making it's way through standard. BB 2/2 Mesmeric Fiend was better, and probably in...

    Well I got about 25% through the article before I read his signature. Perhaps he's improving? :p It's an interesting piece. I don't even live in the US, but I feel where he's coming from. Toronto is one of 3 sizeable population centers in the insanely large landmass that is Canada, so perhaps...

    Is body double good? My brain can't really translate it into being any better than Rise from the Grave. Except...you can pod into it? Maybe I'm undervaluing it being a blue card? o.O Also I feel like I should try supplant form

    Card/Deck The Simic Combine

    Control magic yes, fights no. fight cards don't work when you're losing or developing, only when you're winning or even. I'd also be loathe to resign a colors only removal to Bone Splinters variants that require the creature in question to be big or have deathtouch. It's a big ask. Epic...

    Card/Deck Swords to Plowshares too good for my cube?

    To elaborate: all I'm saying is the exact different between Geopede, Chainwalker and Marauder is small at best. So you choose between them by going 1) Are there synergy reasons I want to run one of these over the other 2) What about other reasons and blocking is a decent answer to #2. Plus...

    Card/Deck Swords to Plowshares too good for my cube?

    Eh, The reason I talk about blocking is because so many cards attack as a 3/2 anyways: Gore-House Chainwalker War-Name Aspirant Borderland Marauder Abbot of Keral Keep Ire Shaman Crimson Muckwader Plated Geopede Stormblood berserker Okay those last two less so but still The 3 power attacker...

    I mean normally I'd just say Utopia, but Clearly driving down life totals makes gameplay more interesting :P Who was that guy who had the combo cube again? Kranny? Check that out for ideas
