Also, thank you guys for being budget friendly. The budget cedh community gets so much flak because "it's not cedh, just proxy" but people fail to realize that cedh is a mindset and gameplan, not JUST all the best cards. It really helps ease casual players into a cedh mindset as well, and normally how much they would pay to build a normal casual deck. I can say that the reason I'm a cedh player now is because of budget brews that I've fallen in love with and slowly upgraded.
this so much. you build a competetive style deck fundamentally different to a normal casual deck, independant of budget. Especially as someone who thinks budget breeds creativity, i would love to find a playgroup for a kind of budget cEDH pod (though at the moment, i don't have time for that)
@@Narabedla4 if you join the cedh budget discord there are plenty of us with a bunch of budget deck lists. The link.os in the cedh reddit! Although it's mainly for budget brews, some of us have made a pod, which is really nice!
I don't think easing casual players into cEDH should be a thing unless that casual player is willing to play a different sub format like cEDH and considers it to be a different format with a different meta and focused on a spike mindset of winning at all costs. This will be a quicker adjustment and allow people to not think about pubstomping battlecruiser type players.
@@CapsFan117 I agree, but my original comment was talking about people who want to play cedh or higher power but don't know where to begin. Thank you for clarifying though
I completely agree with this. Everyone just tells me "proxy this and proxy that" but I'm also a collector and I don't like proxing cards I don't own because it feels wrong to me. (Idc if others do tho) . My kalamax deck is 550 and it hand itself pretty well but that's only because I've played it so much and know every in and out. My gitrog... 150 no proxys. You are very correct CEDH IS A MINDSET
Yeah, but it either needed to never happen, or it needs to exist forever. You can't murder the value of cards people have paid ridiculous money for and not get a huge backlash from a ton of long time players.
@@gqsnowman Lmao multiple MTG youtubers have said reprinting the reserved lists almost always does not lessen the values of said cards. Hell, Pokemon even reprinted foil Charizard with the same design from the very first set and its price did not even change ffs. Watch Professor's vid on this
Niv is a great deck to build budget without losing anything. The curiousity/ophidians eye/tandem lookout combo cards are cheap and your game plan is largely stalling the game out till you draw them so - you don't need expensive tutors. What you need: 15-20 0-2 mana counters (at least a couple free ones like misdirection and foil) 15-20 mana cards - mostly 0-2 mana rocks but cards like rite of flame and treasonous ogre are also good. 32-38 land. As many dual lands as you can fit, then mostly islands especially if you wanna run moon. You don't need many creatures but baral, glinthorn bucanneer (for an extra combo out) captain lannery, spell skite are good (along with tandem lookout of course). Some stax elements are useful, blood moon, mystic remora, grafdiggers cage, cursed totem, stranglehold. Mileage may vary depending on your meta. Other important cards: snapback, mogg salvage, submerge, cyclonic rift, cantrips, fact or fiction, pongify, rapid hybridisation, rolling earthquake, pyroclasm. For a more casual meta amp up on the board wipes. If you wanna run windfall/other wheels effects throw in a market. The wheels seem nice but you're generally looking for hand sculpting, not draw since you want to stick a niv and keep it around, and he'll draw all the cards you need. Hope this has helped. Edit: if you have spare budget you'll wanna add dockside and both forces first. Then, Fierce guardianship and deflecting swat. Next Imperial recruiter as it finds glinthorn and lookout for either half of the combo.
I love their sense of humour, on top of fantastic gameplay, and spectacular narrating, honestly, this is the best (c)EDH channel. No offense to others, they are incredible, too, but PWTMTG games are always exciting.
I really enjoy these $100 budget cEDH matches. Not only does it give me hope of playing near cEDH, as I can't afford the top cards, but it demonstrates the skill these guys have piloting the decks. I would love for this format to become a staple of the channel's rotation.
Let's be real. Wizards needs to just reprint cards at this point. I understand that SCG has dropped Legacy as a supported format, but LGS DO still have Legacy/Vintage events (not to mention EDH) that people can't get into because of the (increasingly) ridiculous price points. This was an extremely fun game to watch, but the fact that one card is responsible for over half of the expenses of the budgetless Blue decks is insane.
I must thank you guys to bring me into the format. I got interested in building a more casual Krark/Sakashima list from one of your previous videos, but it was still too powerful for my regular playgroup. So this morning I got to brewing and made it into an actual cEDH list, and joined a Tabletop Simulater discord server and got my first few games in. Got SUUUUUPER lucky with my krark triggers (they always removed one of my krarks so never had more than one until the very end), managed to find an opening and push through a dualcaster/twinflame combo for the win. While at 1 life, with the thrassios/bruse pod player trying to kill me since T1 for the cursed totem I had down. So again, thank you for showing me how much fun competitive edh can be.
Yay more budget CEDH. I'm especially impressed with the tymna/kraum list, proving that you don't need a 3000 dollar mana base to compete at the CEDH table with a four colour deck.
Love the idea for these! I think the sweet spot might be closer to $150 though so the tapped lands and 3 mana rocks could be replaced. Keep up the great content!
It's really not. Wizards tells people that they won't keep reprinting certain cards because the player's back then were getting mad that their cards' value tanked. People then literally invest in those cards just because of Wizard's promise. They can't go back on their word now because it would result in huge backlash from the investor community. "think of the rich people" as an argument would work if those rich people's lives were completely ruined financially because of the proposed policy, which is actual what would happen if certain cards were reprinted.
OMG! Im watching Scott Pilgrim vs. The World right now, and your K.O. sample is the same as in that movie, so I assume you got it from there, or from the same source as that movie. I am so hyped to find this out haha :D
I literally stopped the movie, rewatched it, and posted this comment before I finished it. Really cool you got it from there, suits the awesome content (also suits the Cedh you against all the other decks mentaliteit a bit)
I've been subscribed for a while but only recently started really watching... Now I want to play cEDH!!! And if I can do it on a decent budget (or just proxy), I may start soon.
I think there's a misplay at 13:42. Ryan discards his hand due to the windfall trigger and casts the Strength of Lunacy, but the Anje should have untapped when he discarded a card with madness.
When I built the Lavina deck, it had non budget decks in mind to play against. I don't think playing it against other budget decks is it's best outing. I have tried it against fully tuned cEDH lists and it holds it own.
"You have no maximum hand size" has to be the second most overlooked and easily forgotten ability in all of Magic. **cries in Nezahal** If you're wondering, the first one is vigilance. :D
Great video. As I search RUclips and watch these games without all the fast, expensive mana rocks, it makes me wish more of them were banned. The games feel more interesting when we aren’t exclusively using turns 2-4 to rush our way to 9+ mana.
Kinnan doesn't need much to be powerful. My kinnan deck has been a on going investment and is OP now.... my first ever EDH deck was Anje and I'm currently trying to revive it without breaking the bank. Watching games like this I picked up on a budget replacement for deflecting swat. Thankyou.... And funnily enough before I decided to revive Anje I was contemplating building a Nezahal deck. Now probably gona try build both lol
As of today this budget version of Anje cazn be bought for a very good price of 57 € - 62 USD. This is in europe only 12 bucks more than the precon running for 45 €... Tanks :)
Wow. Totally forgot about Verity Circle. Every mana dork my opponent taps draws me a card??? Holy crap. To wit: I watch *this* and Play to Win, because it's JUST gameplay. It cuts 90 minute games down to 10-20 min videos.
I definitely respect budget decks, it would be a struggle for me to build one. But, it's not my favorite thing to watch. I watch a lot of cedh for the powerful fun cards.
Do you guys do commander requests? Could you do a deck with Nicol Bolas, The Ravager? I've been dying to see how you guys would play it in a format like this
I'm going to start playing on spell table and was wondering what CED H group I should join that allows proxy I don't care about points or cash prizes I just play for fun and the spirit of cedh
More $100 cedh. I took a crack and built $100 Meren deck with a protean hulk package or ways to recur it's pieces and have been enjoying it. Maybe another blind commander game using $100 budget
This should really say something about how ridiculous the reserved list is. Also why my group uses proxies. ESPECIALLY with recent prices. Every time I think im in a good position to start buying duals again, they spike way outside my range. I spent $4 on a good proxy compared to almost $1,000 currently.
What I've been growing to dislike more and more about cEDH is the overuse of the same card pool over and over again in every deck, simply because they're known to be the most optimal, efficient cards available. No one wants to deviate from the proven formula or try something different just for the sake of spicing it up. Playing on a budget restriction forces you to make choices that can lead to something fun and interesting. Something a little different. This was refreshing to watch, great job gentlemen. Still sucks that Thassa's Oracle won yet another cEDH game
What is the win condition in the anje deck? I know you can make infinite mana and get infinite etb triggers with it but you need a payoff in order to convert those into wins right? Also I was looking at the anje deck list and I’m curious, why is street wraith in there?
8:10 , i guess when something "enters the battlefield with [x] counters" on it, it's not the same as the "enter the battlefield" effects that the hushbringer surpresses?
correct. "enters the battlefield with" and "as ~ enters the battlefield" are replacement effects. Triggered abilities start with "when", "whenever", or "at". So if it doesn't say When or Whenever, Hushbringer doesn't affect it.
Just curious, can you actually counter the Transmute activated ability with Dispel? I was under the impression that it goes on the stack as an ability (can be Stifle'd, but not outright countered).
I’m curious why the table didn’t work harder to deal with Nez? Wasn’t it clear that letting the kinnan player draw 5 extra cards per turn cycle wouldn’t end well?
Alright I'm dumb and just starting to get into cEDH from casual play, but the only wincon I see in the Anje list is the Comet Storm off an infinite Worldgorger/Animate Dead(etc) mana combo. I see the red counterspells and redirects, but with a telegraphed combo like that won't people just hold up the mana to counterspell? Or are you relying on the fact that drawing most of your deck will put the counterspells in your hand to keep the combo safe?
Anje is an extremely fragile one chance combo. It's also very fast and easily assembled. Playing the deck well has a lot to do picking your moment carefully.
Also Avacyn's Judgment can be discarded and cast for X. You can also have Bloodhall priest on the field with no cards in hand and flicker WGD with priest to drain opponents.
@@PlayingWithPowerMTG thanks! Excited to learn more. My original playgroup was very non-infinite combos so I never really got into them until recently.
Every time I see/resolve a Nezahal in a high power game because "that card sucks" I just silently nod until we all die to it. That stupid dinosaur is deceptively strong and weirdly enough the lower power you go the more people respect it
Next time you do budget, see if Mitch from Commanders Quarters is available! His Jhoira deck is nasty Also why doesn’t mike just recast his commander? He had 4 mana open

It’s funny that this video is budget based, and happens to be almost twice as long as other videos.
There aren't a lot of tutors in budget decks, so it makes them less consistent or have that one tutor that makes a hand win on turn 3 with fast mana.
there's a reason why tutors and fast mana are so expensive lol
Yes of course. The best decks win in T2 or something. I love the low cost concept, more magic!
I think that was mostly the early arcane laboratory which nobody wanted to be the person to remove it

Anje player looks at Narset, Verity Circle, AND Tormod's crypt... FML pass
well imma be that guy but mike didnt need to discard to hand size, big fish Nezahal gives no max hand size
Not only did he not need to, but he actually couldn't.
Was a misplay on his part.

I see the red counterspells and redirects, but with a telegraphed combo like that won't people just hold up the mana to counterspell? Or are you relying on the fact that drawing most of your deck will put the counterspells in your hand to keep the combo safe?
Anje is an extremely fragile one chance combo. It's also very fast and easily assembled. Playing the deck well has a lot to do picking your moment carefully.
@@milna64 thanks! Makes more sense. Wouldn’t something like impact tremors or dragon tempest make it more stable? Or is the 2 extra mana too much?
Also Avacyn's Judgment can be discarded and cast for X. You can also have Bloodhall priest on the field with no cards in hand and flicker WGD with priest to drain opponents.
@@PlayingWithPowerMTG thanks! Excited to learn more. My original playgroup was very non-infinite combos so I never really got into them until recently.
There's also Sunscorcher Desert, which will ping players over and over again during every Worldgorger cycle.
More more more loved this
umm am I missing sth or shouldnt mike not discard to hand size with Nezahaul?doesnt it give you infinite hand size?
Yeah, think you missed it.
"This spell can't be countered.
You have no maximum hand size."
Dont worry.
lower the music in the intro is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much smoother! nice small improvement
Kinnan is the kind of nonsense that can be a lot of fun. Gives you mana and something to dump the mana into with big dumb things to beat face
I think Mike shouldn't discard to hand size all those time for Nezahal, unless there is something Im missing.
Every time I see/resolve a Nezahal in a high power game because "that card sucks" I just silently nod until we all die to it. That stupid dinosaur is deceptively strong and weirdly enough the lower power you go the more people respect it
13:44 Anje triggers on discarding any card with Madness, not just when using her ability. She should have untapped there.
They catch it later, it's untapped at 14:20.
I catch the mistake and then don't catch the fix!
Mike didn't need to discard to hand size with Nezahal out. Oh well. Lol.
Next time you do budget, see if Mitch from Commanders Quarters is available! His Jhoira deck is nasty
Also why doesn’t mike just recast his commander? He had 4 mana open
Maybe bluffing for counterspell... Common strategy at cedh table
Ummm apparently transmute artifact is 300$, I’ve had one lying around 🤩lol😂😝
Why was he discarding to handsize when he has nezahal out??
Mike wins the spoiled milk drinking contest
T1: Mike has dihedra and was in the washroom for 30 minutes.
I was too busy vomiting in the bathroom to remember the text on Nezahal
😂
This is so amazing.
My question is why did Mike keep discarding Nez says he has no max hand size.
Ugh, not the spoiled milk D:
I'm surprised Tymna/Kraum did so poorly given their states in cEDH. Are they only good with tutors and fast mana?
Awesome!!!!
