Sorry if this isn’t the right community, and if it isn’t hopefully someone can point me in the right direction!
I am looking for some input on an EDH deck I am working on. This is the deck and it revolves around [[Gandalf the Grey]] as the commander. So lots of instants, sorceries, and prowess. Mostly aiming for Gandalf commander damage as the win condition by combining the 3 damage to each player and then putting Gandalf back on the top of the library. I played this for the first time last night and while it has a ton of potential, I definitely feel that things are missing.
Things I am looking for are:
- More card draw. This was without a doubt the biggest issue and I’ll take any input on how to improve this!
- More counters. Less of an issue than card draw, but definitely was struggling against my buddy’s Balen/Token deck.
- Any sort of board wipe. This was definitely an issue but by the time I could’ve really used the board wipe, I had fizzled out due to no card draw.
Hopefully folk have some input! I would definitely love to keep this on the cheaper side as this deck so far has cost me $15 for a couple boosters. Most of the deck was inherited from someone in college years ago lol.
That’s exactly how I feel about it! I just started getting into MTG and bought the Animated Army bloomburrow precon after making a couple wacky modern decks out of the inherited cards I have and it just feels so generic. Like if I took it to a LGS I could very likely run into someone with the exact same deck and that isn’t quite as fun as something very uniquely you yah know?
EDHRec has been awesome to find some cheap spells though and I definitely spent too much time at work looking through other folks decks lol. But at least with being able to go through other folks decks I’m able to find some cheap(er) cards that definitely can have some use, and that’s really what I was looking for!
