I can vouch got my precons yesterday and did quick upgrades, prosper was hands down the strongest

Also, red specializes in playing cards from exile, and Kaldheim brought Foretell and Dream Devourer which that can give huge value.

Why can't I hold all these treasures??

I agree Prosper is insane!!!

Yeap

I heard in 5e he can be taken out quite easily. Plus id imagine MTGs power scaling is much higher than in D&D.

@@MatthewCJoy depends on how strong the party is and how the dm lets the players interact with the environment to bring it down. I'd say it's still a tough nut to crack

@@billcypher564 well ya of coarse, but that description is far from Emrakul level power. Also the "devour whole worlds" statement everyone keeps using seems very out of line with what his actual power level seems like. I know hardly anything about D&D and even less about this particular monster but it just seems like that statement is really overblown, sorta like if hes left unchecked for an absurd amount of time he will of coarse eventually have killed everything. Like its just mythical exaggerated line to hype him up, because i havent personally seen anyone bring up any feats by actual encountered ones where they actually display that level of power. But again I can definitely be wrong.

@@MatthewCJoy Nah it's a pretty apt comparison if you're comparing The Tarrasque to the Eldrazi Titans that *we see* in Magic. You can't compare it to the unseen eldritch beings that are the Eldrazi in the blind eternities, but you can compare it to the manifestations we see, effectively being small parts of the greater whole titans. In that way The Tarrasque is similar, as without a concerted, cooperative effort between the most powerful beings on a plane or world; in much the same way the Eldrazi Titans' smaller physical manifestations would- The Tarrasque would also eventually consume all available life.

@@MatthewCJoy The Tarrasque also doesn't die, so it would have been more appropriate if it had a cheap Regenerate cost or when it dies it just goes seven from the top of your library. There were so many things missing from what defines The Tarrasque in this set that it is just a big ol' dinosaur with a Tarrasque picture and name slapped onto it.

Mitch seems to intentionally disregard infinite combo cards. Even says it with Acerak(spelling?) In this video.

Until you're against simmic, then it's the rakdos player's simmic deck

Krark's Thumb could come in handy

And really, it’s a *fun* idea, which is what I appreciate. I’m not overly fond of overpowered and competitive stuff, just because I dealt with a lot of jerks when I was younger. By the way, I’m building a Vrondiss deck that includes *all* the color-appropriate dice cards. I’m calling it “Mister King Dice”.

Give Toralf deathtouch (and the commander if possible) and each damage is a kill spell because each damage past one is excess.

My favorite is Delina copying a pixie guide. It can go effectively almost infinite if it hits the first couple rolls.

Idk, kind of a worse Sen Triplets to me

@@ChildrenOfOwls so far I've been super successful using him. Granted I'm a new player so maybe there are combos or potentials I see yet

@@ChildrenOfOwls it has built in mana fixing and can literally screw over any player extremely easily. Being able to manipulate what they draw is extremely powerful, more than looking at their hand and potentially casting what they have.

@@liamlyda2116 I mean...there's a reason Sen Triplets sees competitive play and Xanathar doesn't

@@ChildrenOfOwls its also a brand new card that hasn't been out for very long, where Sen Triplets has been out for years. I'm not saying one is better than another, just that Xanathar is perfect for locking people out of games, Sen Triplets is perfect for casting other people's stuff. When it comes down to it, Xanathar is just much more consistent.

is this a thing?

@@bouncingdonut9969 Yes it is www.polygon.com/platform/amp/2021/2/25/22301336/magic-the-gathering-warhammer-40000-crossover-commander-deck

@@liammurphy3258 a lord of the rings set would be dope

@@jameskeenan1351 it's coming in 2023

That’s honestly why I like Prosper, even though Rakdos isn’t my preferred color pairing. I’m a green man, so I honestly wish I could build a deck that has both Prosper and Faldorn in the 99. They both have solid synergy. I just can’t think of an appropriate Jund Commander. Any ideas, anyone?

Most God creatures already have indestructible so I completely agree. I understand that WotC had to balance her insane ETB but still, I don’t think that for 7 mana giving her hexproof or at least ward 7 to match her mana value is that much to ask

Ditto, I like the way you think! She seems fun regardless of this tier list. The dice rolling is the cherry on top.

How?

@@hrdstyldncngisbst Infinite mana is easy with Freed From the Reel and Kiora's Follower, along with a number of other effects. Then you use Thassa's Oracle, Jace, or Lab Maniac to win.

She is S tier for infinite mana builds. You don't play her like Ur Dragon "Dragon Tribal". Instead once you hit infinite mana, cast Tiamat, tutor for Scourge of Valkas/Terror of the Peaks and Immersturm Predator. Just cast Tiamat and sac and recast infinitely to win.

@@dinchianghii3296 but how often will this win in CEDH or every high tier

@@troybrodeyr In Cedh everything goes. It just needs Scourge of Valk or Terror of the Peaks. Just that this is the first cmdr for those who wants to play Food chain Dragon tribal instead of Tazri Ally or the First Sliver. Can also make it less cedh by cutting down interaction, throwing in more dragons and keeping food chain pieces.

@@dinchianghii3296 that is assuming you're playing cedh. Even still without infinites you have access to blue and green and with enough low cost ramp and counter spells, I think it'd be a beast in casual too.

Do you want Icingdeath to be D-? It’s already a D, have they gone any lower?

@@SlurpeeDude429 it just seems so awful it deserves its own terrible rank... White is "bad" because we get commanders like this for it and it makes me sad.

@@tylerrusnak7736 I traded a Commander Legends Scroll Rack for Old Gnawbone(OGB). OGB's gonna go in my Chatterfang deck.

While I don't think I'd play him as commander but in a rahda he can become huge and possibly a game ender, but better as a 99

You could play Prosper with Anje Falkenrath and a Falkenrath Gorger and just laugh at the evil you've wrought on your playgroup

@@samtheactualkenku6205 My Merciless Rage precon just came in the mail today 😈 gonna test out what does and doesn't work and hopefully have a powerhouse of a deck finished by the next time the pod gets together

If Vrondiss is going to be your go to, I'd suggest Doubling Season or Parallel Lives

Gross, I love it

I desperately want werewolves to be relevant!

I have to respectfully disagree with you 100%. Tiamat is a S tier commander. I am a MTG Arena player. However I have a 5 color Dragon deck that uses Tiamat and I can safely say that I bring the pain on a casual fun level AND competitive! Just beat the other day a 5 color good stuff Jodah deck while they had a Omniscience enchantment in play... I consistently will beat other top tier commander decks. Not a offshoot every now and then thing. The thing with Tiamat is you might have a relatively good idea what's coming. But supported with good graveyard recursion cards and board wipe spells such as crux of fate, ruinous ultimatum etc. In combination with Sarkhan planeswalkers, Fearsome Whelp, and Dragons shamans to reduce dragons cost to essentially 1-2 mana. Good luck!!! Also good luck having/finding an answer for 6-12 threats coming your way. Not to mention each of those dragons individual abilities are usually game winning in and of themselves more times than not if not answered within a couple turns. There are ALOT of whiff 5 color dragons deck out there I'll admit. But go against the one built right and you'll find it is no joke whatsoever! To be honest if I had access to Ur-Dragon. I'd still choose Tiamat for the simple reason that she is cheaper for one so you're going to more consistently have her in play than UR Dragon. 2# She is super helpful in filling your hand back up with super dangerous threats if your going against heavy removal, board wipe counter decks. 3# She gives you the opportunity to tutor for specific Dragons that you need for specific matchups. Her utility is amazing if built correctly! Anyways, just my two cents on the matter

Not when his precon is consistently stealing cards sadly

Commander damage is only combat damage so the 20 damage from the ability doesn’t count.

The creature does, so give it lifelink and have fun never dying.

Yes

@@noahfenlon4231 Sick

Adrix and Nev doesn’t double your Volo triggers, Bud. Neither does Doubling Season or Parallel Lives etc. You’re copying spells which make tokens with Volo, not directly making tokens.

@@jamesprior8090 you are right, I didn't read it well. Well, rip to that idea. Thanks

In my opinion, it's a really good card especially if you run it in Dragon Decks with something like Nesting Dragon. There's a lot of amazing dragons that you could put into the deck and have cards that allow you to tutor them. The double strike is just really powerful with the right setup.
