    I love the game theory of "each opponent would rather you not know their deck, but each opponent would also rather you know the other opponents' decks" leading to them explaining each other's decks.

    Admittedly not the deck I plan to build/proxy for cEDH (Rocco Food Chain 4 lyfe), but absolutely. Knowing how your deck works and if you're unfamiliar with the decks at the table, asking are the premier tricks to getting better and possibly winning.

      It is

    • @jemm113
      @jemm113 18 дней назад +18

      It really is
      1) it’s entirely community driven
      2) because everyone knows the power level, we don’t run into issues like casual commander does with deck building choices (even when we complain for stuff like Nadu, it’s a jab at WotC for card design decisions or the rules committee not addressing things timely)
      3) most tournaments allow proxies so money becomes less of an issue, or entirety a non-issue if the rest of the deck is rather budget. The format uses a TON of weird and niche cards that don’t see play in casual and aren’t reserve list so some staples are surprisingly cheap. You don’t run into a lot of elitism like you do in Modern, at worst people show off their real copies of stuff but we know we’re here to play the game, not wallets.
      4) the only thing you get flamed on is not knowing your deck’s lines (and threat assessment but that’s fixed with exposure), but thanks to online resources it’s very easy to study how your deck works if you are pulling from known archetypes and commanders.
      5) rogue decks can and do win and most are very sportsmanlike about it since it can be a very fun surprise at a table when the big beatdown deck manages to actually kill the table 😂
      6) EVERYONE runs removal and interaction. There’s little bickering about people not running enough and getting mad at the table when someone drops a problem spell and it goes unanswered. Usually it’s because removal was already used up and the people are playing smart.
      7) pretty much everyone is supportive of teaching new players since it’s a niche format. Players are pretty knowledgeable about the rules so they are able to help newbies get brought up to speed on rules interactions and threat assessment.
      8) We play to win. At a competitive table, politicking is mostly reserved for answering wincons or stax. Petty plays are usually not optimal so are discouraged. The worst you get is priority manipulation where the first player passed priority to a threat or interaction sandbags to see if someone else will answer and gets annoyed when no one else does and the last player doesn’t do something to restart priority before the spell resolves (especially when said threat only hurts 1 or 2 players) and not the last, hence the refusal to “cooperate”. But this is generally discouraged.
      All in all, thanks to the community focus and mostly divorcing gameplay from the wallet for reserve list cards and expensive staples, the community is very positive and constructive.

      @@jemm113seems like you need better friends to play edh with. All of this is true in edh as well as long as you aren’t playing with cy babies. Plus, you missed “it’s much less creative and pigeon holed, if your deck doesn’t consistently win turn 3-4 alone you aren’t playing cedh, and it devolves the game into who luckily/politically won the interaction war”.

    Some people will be confused as to why an opponent would tell you about what their deck does, but lets be real, its because either:
    A- You're gonna find out anyway, they might as well just tell ya
    B- We're nerds, nobody ever wants to talk about our hobbies😢

      @aprofessionalateverything7585 18 дней назад +9

      He's saying at the table of four, each player is willing to explain what the other players' decks do because they want you to deal with the win con. So even if people won't reveal their own deck, if you ask the entire table "what do your decks do," player 1 is willing to explain decks 2 and 3, player 2 is willing to explain decks 1 and 3, player 3 is willing to explain decks 1 and 2 and now you know the entire table even if you don't know anything about CEDH.

    I sold all my stuff awhile back and miss is dearly. Elsha was my intro into cEDH because I bought the precon she came with as my introduction into basic EDH. I loved her style so much I created a deck for EDH but turned out to be a cEDH deck. She is so versatile and with jeskai having so much support for spellcasting and infinite shenanigans. She is SOOO under rated.

    EDH tornumentets..... A good way to tell everyone a mile away that you missed the whole point of something and is so committed to something bad/stupid that you can't turn back.
    Like seriously it's the QI Curve meme, me the super smarts and the super dumb hear that and go "that's just stupid", you can have fun put me on either extreme....than there is the middle part telling how to win these tornumentets.
