When the Serra Ascendant got sawed in half, the copies have base stats equal to half the current stats so it would create two 8/8 lifelinks instead of 6/6s

When the game needs information about an object that no longer exists, it uses the last information it had before ceasing to exist (in this case, due to changing zones).

I’m a Rowan pilot and holy cow (mtg cannon reference) I was so excited to see her in todays episode!!!! Playing her for a few months now, I think there’s a few things I wanna say for anyone looking to pilot and I’m case y’all do a future episode with her included: - I’ve found that Rowan shines with heavy removal in the deck as it makes most meta removal spells a cutdown with barely any limits. - playing bad spells is the downside of this deck as Rowan is a pretty monolith commander in regards to the card quality and how high the ceiling is for cards just out of reach of CEDH meta play. Ex. I run elicit shipment as a 1 card wincon with Rowan, but it is useless without her. The same goes for most of the cards I’ve seen in other pilots lists. - I think people should steer away from thinking of Rowan as a “big spells” commander and instead should look at her as a mana crypt/mana vault in the command zone. I have found that in many games I often win because of the ease of casting pieces on my turn and being able to keep mana up for interaction. -in regards to the previous ^, Rowan is a storm deck. The mana advantage she provides is parallel to Kinnen, although, it comes with more risk as she telegraphs the importance of life totals as well as takes a turn to be able to pop off. All that said, I linked my current list that I run and would love to chat with others about how viable Rowan is in the meta.

One thing I always think is funny is that Serra Ascendant has fallen out of favour in regular commander and is getting played more in CEDH, I never see it anymore in lower power games because it feels like it doesn't do enough but in cedh where everyone's paying life all the time a 6/6 flying lifelink that denies your opponent 6 Necropotence cards is pretty good.

@justaperson5092 2 ай бұрын

I know rowan is SUPER fragile. I HIGHLY recommend path of the pyromancer if you are running underworld breach already anyway. with just a 4 life reduction, its a great winning line. Kriik is too amazing for the decklist in general, especially for when you're short on colored mana. Behold the Beyond is also usually as bad tutor due to cost but Rowan gets to be one of the few to make an amazing use of it for just 5 life loss (easily done through a mana crypt "unlucky" flip or ancient tomb + 3 damage from pain lands), feeds breach nicely if you choose to grab it. Torment of hailfire is a fun wincon but varies too much based on people's card draw and board state, so without storm kings thunder, I've been less happy with Torment without it being in the 20-30 area.

@MageSkeleton 2 ай бұрын

i'm glad there's more content coming up with the Rowan deck because wow that's so terrible being the only player with such a target and no blockers on top of the fact we're talking about getting smacked by serra ascendant. For me, it's always a "feels bad" when in this type of situation. But then, i find that if you sit at the table and players are focusing you instead of targeting someone else, your playing the wrong commander. However, i'd like to say Rowan Scion of War is "powerful" but she needs to have haste or untap to really do anything and your life total may be too low to take advantage of at that point.

Unfortunately because proxies are a playerbase thing and not an official thing, there isn't a unified answer to this question, it's up to the venue/event what is allowed and what isn't. That being said, in my limited CEDH experience, people are pretty cool about it, as long as the card is clearly printed/readable (and not obscene) that's all that most people seem to care about . I personally highly recommend MPC, it's a bit of a process, but the Reddit/youtube have really good tutorials on how to do it, and there is an autofill website with a lot of good art to choose from (at least on most normal cards you'd be playing) and it's very cheap, relatively speaking. All that being said though, I started with straight up printed pieces of paper that I put in sleeves on top of basic lands and my local CEDH scene was totally cool with it, so the barrier for entry is lower than a lot of people think it is!

Given that he had no fast mana for his turn 1, the best he could have done was to invest his resources and go from there. Even then it is better for him to attempt to go for his short turn resources and silence him mid combo so that he has expended all those resources since there is a clear payload that he would need and there is nothing he could do. The worst case scenario would be that he has dark ritual simian and a grim for a nause turn 2, however you could just wait until he uses his ad naus to silence so he loses out on all those short gains.
