Unlike many Commanders, she is not a ball of powerful stats, though a 5 mana 5/5 with Deathtouch and Lifelink is pretty respectable, and nor does she generate constant value. The Commander, Biollante, and my Goals with this Deckīiollante is the Commander of this deck, and she is core to how this deck will be played. This probably is absolute gibberish if you do not know much Magic, and if you do know much it may still be gibberish. Or, alternatively, my Biollante deck, since we live in a world where Magic now has collaborations with Godzilla or The Walking Dead. What follows is my (almost) finished first draft of my Nethroi, Apex of Death deck.

It’s fundamentally a non-competitive format where you try and play at around the same ‘power-level’ as your friends and have a chill time with. The reason EDH works, is that it is normally played with at least four other players, and that people usually are not playing it just To Win. And utilizes 99 card singleton decks – to maximize variance – with 1 card Commanders who you can cast at more or less any point, with which you normally build a strategy around.

You can use cards from the entirety of Magic’s history. As an adult, I am more disillusioned than ever with Wizards of the Coast and the history and narrative of Magic as a franchise.ĮDH (Elder Dragon Highlander) or Commander, is a way of playing Magic that is an absolute hot mess. Back seat watching middle class liberals who were all pretty much awful people made up a good portion of my teenage years. Never quite having the money or social group to get into it, but thoroughly enjoying the game nonetheless. Magic has been something of a mythological game for me for almost a decade now. A global pandemic is an excellent time to waste money, time and energy on expensive social hobbies.
