I've been playing Neera, Wild Mage - summoning Eldrazi with low cost spells. Even though my buddy who is playing Dragons with copy and Blink, which is waaaay more threatening, everyone always attacks me instantly cause Eldrazi just scare the crap out of everyone.

That’s how it is sometimes.

I built a Neera deck, used Mind's Dilation to cast big things on my opponents turn, it was a fun deck. Named it "Random Magical Bullshit, Go!"

[@bobwinslow1920]

I have a Kenrith deck that is all about making sure that all my other opponents are even by giving stuff to those behind and punishing those who are ahead. Then when the board is nice and big I mass goad and cast wound reflection. Always makes fun games.

Thanks for sharing!!!

[@joejojo5966]

Sounds interesting what do you use for mass goad

[@Red_Mag3]

I run Bjorna and Wernog, and give all of my opponents that extra card draw from clues without making the clues I get too punishing (just goading whatever is too threatening). The real goal isnt the clues, but having both my commanders die often, once they've died and been recast a few times I wait for or use a boardwipe.
Then I follow up with Skull Storm with 4 or 5 additional copies. With no board, my opponents usually go from 80 or so life to death's door.

I think something you should have mentioned is how you can only lie once, so make sure your one lie wins you the game.

[@mtgmookie]

You’re right!

[@rudixy7808]

This only works once unless you play with new players everytime.

[@SwedeRacerDC]

I think that is the importance of learning to bluff without lying. Opponent goes to tap all their lands..."I have 3 mana open, are you sure you want to do that?"

2:01 mystical tutor reveals what you tutor for, so if you say "im getting a counter spell" then reveal the card you tutor was "Candlekeep Inspiration" expect a few puzzled stares.

[@mtgmookie]
