Today I'm taking a look at the MXP cEDH event at Commandfest San Francisco, a 126-player in person tournament. This event saw some new Thunder Junction cards make a splash, some top tier commanders have unexpected performances, and turbo decks like Rog/Si and the new Stella Lee continue to dominate. The decks we're looking at are Tymna/Kraum, Stella Lee, Kinnan, Azusa, Rog/Si, Kenrith, Dargo/Reyhan, Sisay, Rog/Thrasios, Cecily/Sophina, and Najeela.
Let me know down below which of these lists was your favorite, and what deck you're playing next!

Hey Lemora, the Cloudshift is 100% bc it can combo with a gilded draked dockside or such, but also Cloudshift + Kitten + EWit + Dockside goes infinite in a way that is actually disrupted by retrace since ephemerate will not hit the yard for Ewit

@LemorasCards 3 ай бұрын

Oh the ewit thing is pretty interesting, I've had that kind of thing come up in Bruse/Thras builds so that makes sense.

😂 Yeah I don't use TappedOut, but I do really prefer Archidekt over Moxfield these days. Archidekt is easier to work with and customize categories. Moxfield shows the card we mouse over on the left of the screen, and Archidekt makes the card bigger under your cursor so you don't have to move your eyes away from the cursor when quickly scanning decks.

34:15 Most of the time it probably doesn't matter, but we don't even need to cast three instant or sorcery spells. Only the one we want to copy (infinitely) needs to be of those types. The first two could even be mana rocks ... or Stella herself.

@Brandon8437 3 ай бұрын

For kenrith, cloudshift goes to graveyard after you cast it, ephemerate doesn't. It's part of the kitten/eternal witness line!

@mylama 3 ай бұрын

Cloudshift returns to your control not owners so you can keep draked cards while dodging bounce/kitten

Stella is a deck I really like, I need to give it a run.

@julianb.f4007 3 ай бұрын

The reason kenrith sometimes plays clouds cloudshift or ephem is because of kitten loops w/ e wit and dockside. It's also slightly relevant that it goes straight to grave when ur trying to breach

for stella lee. aside from twisted fealty. how does it win? drawing your library isn't a definitive win with this list. or did i miss something? like brain freezing your opponents? kind of needs a lab man or thassa's oracle to secure right? because if i exile twisted fealty the deck loses? breaching a lightning bolt? idk i feel as if my list is different but if i can afford to cut 'win more' cards i would definitely fill the spots. pro tip anyone?

Draw whole deck then make infinite mana with either dramatic reversal or hidden strings, then you can underworld breach brain freeze everyone to death Or you can just thassas oracle. It’s all up to preference. The main “core” of Stella are the cerulean wisps/refocus/twitch effects then you can do your own personal favorite izzet wincon from there

@@bugs5567 yeah this list doesn't run thassa. I have been running stella lately and twisted has been the definitive. brainfreeze isn't a great one because if you breach everything to your graveyard stuff like endurance forces a loss and shuffle titans exist. wish i would have seen these games to see if everyone scooped for win or if he played it out. she is still a bit goofy to win with.

I considered Technomancer in initial builds, but in my testing it I didn’t find a use case for it. Lmk if you come across play patterns or lines that work for you! I played Saw in Half when I had Hoarding Broodlord. Nice line to have in the deck, but Razaketh proved more efficient/ involved less “dead” cards.

So is technomancer + cursed mirror + dargo. you clone the technomancer, then you cast dargo saccing the OG technomancer. Reanimate the OG techno using the clone’s activated ability, sac dargo to its ETB, repeat. the loop uses 6 treasures and generates 7 treasures each time

Non-proxy is so remarkably stupid. Is this CEDH, the format to find the most competitive games, or a pay to play format? More games and more players is how we grow. The entitlement of non-proxy tournaments is obscene. Can you win or not? Or are you just afraid of more competition?

@LemorasCards 2 ай бұрын

I'm also a major proponent of proxy events, but this is an event happening at a CommandFest. It's very hard to expect anything WotC gets near to allow proxies.
