The One Ring needed a "Decks may only contain one copy of The One Ring" style effect, like cards that allow you to play more than 4/1 of them but the opposite. Not only is that more flavorful, but it stops the "oops I lost all my burden counters and got protection from everything again by casting a second "One" Ring xd" shenanigans

The one ring reminds me of Fable of the Mirror Breaker, it's not a flashy effect, not spectacular, but it's a solid reliable value engine; in this case with the added benefit of being playable in literally any deck, being a colourless artefact. It's not exactly a great or broken card by itself, it's more like an amazing catalyst for basically whatever else you're doing.

That card is not good, it is just bad design and totally op, everyone can make such a card in two seconds. Just throw everything powerful onto it and boom. There is no real ability to that. The real work is to balance cards in the first place and I think WotC is losing that. You can see it with so many cards, the Planeswalkers for instance should've never hit the board, they are almost all broken, yes, there are weak ones out there for sure... but only a very few. The whole concept is bustet when it comes to the Planeswalkers, although they are so much fun to play, I have to admit. But the Ring is just bad design and they know it.
@christopherpatricklizares5306 Жыл бұрын
@@emorsi There's a difference between power-level good and design-quality good. Sure, you can say that the One Ring is too powerful from a design perspective, but the same could be said for a lot of cards already, especially in the cEDH space. But that's exactly what we're looking for in cards to play. We're looking for things that are absurd, or things that are over the reasonable curve. From a power-level good, the ring is, well, good. It does things we want, and there are ways we can abuse it in the cEDH space to really make it work for us.

Pulling the one ring kinda changed the way I play commander overall and allowed me to build a massively good deck with it, that focuses on dealing enough damage to wipe everyone else out by at least turn 4-5, baring that I draw all the right cards. Which essentially is ideal for a card like the one ring to come into play and help stall and draw for the right cards needed to get these combos going faster, with just a tiny bit of downside (loss of life) as for the sacrifice. I believe the one ring CAN essentially go in ANY deck, as long as it helps you get the job done better.

Honestly, if The One Ring ends up banned in formats like Modern, it could really add to the allure of its power. I love that its strong enough to warp entire formats around itself. Its a huge flavor win. And having to ban it to regulate it only makes it more of a Boogeyman, like Oko and Hogaak before it.

There are already commanders who can enable topdeck better, like Tymna enabling Imperial Seal with her post combat draw. The One Ring does provide more situations where those cards are direct to hand tutors but I wouldn’t highlight that as a unique benefit. You can technically achieve that with anything that draws. Also want to clarify that cantripping is when a card replaces itself, like Consider or Ponder. TOR actually lets you go positive, so it’s just simple card draw.

The ring got them one game, where they were just drawing into basically infinite control while gaining craploads of life. But the other game I was able to run their hand out and kill easily, because they did not draw a ring. Game three they did get a ring, but I spell pierced it and killed them while they were tapped out.

If you play a Solemnity first before the ring hits the board the Ring is completely shuted down. I do this in my 9 Lifes/Solemnity combo BUT you HAVE to play Solemnity out before the Ring hits the board. I had many games where I played Solemnity a turn after The Ring showed up and the one card draw every turn from the Ring alone was mighty enough, so I mostly lost the game. That card is so beyond broken I am against it altogether, even if it should be restricted to one card in a deck, but it would be a start. I don't know what is going on in the minds of the card creators over at WotC, do they not playtest their cards before releasing?

I lost a game to this very handily the other week. T1 I windfall as 2nd player going down to 4. Opponent before me already played a mana crypt. Turn 2, he plays The One Ring with 4 mana. Turn 3, he plays seedborn on top of it. I'm tapped out at the time. Come my turn, he also untaps. The only response I had was Touch the Spirit Realm. Other two opponents had nothing. As I played the card, he countered it and the game was literally gone from that moment onwards. This is pure gas for green decks as they can run Seedborn Muse and tutor for it reliably through Neoform or Eldrich Evo (and finale and invasion and...). It's completely busted with untap effects. Muse on it's own is so called "green Ad Nauseam" and is a staple for Thrasios and Kinnan decks. This combination, if you somehow get it (and you can, with Transmute Artifact for example), wins you the game. End of discussion. It would have to go "really" bad for you not to close the game with this combo on board.
