This budget elves deck was built on the Freyalise, Llanowar's Fury preconstructed deck "Guided By Nature". This deck was recently re-released in Commander Anthologies. Everyone loves the foil commanders but more importantly this deck is FILLED to the brim with valuable elves. This gives us an opportunity to make a solid budget elf deck. Below […]

Hello friends and Elven members of the Mul Daya tribe, welcome back to EDHREC and our continuing biweekly column, Non-Basically Speaking, the series that strives to identify non-basic lands that should be considered valuable staples or hidden gems based on their visibility on EDHREC. Today we're working on a deck that wants to crank up […]

Joseph Schultz 
Blast from the Past Commander Anthology comes out this Friday, inviting us all to enjoy some of our old favorites from past Commander products, such as Kaalia of the Vast and Derevi, Empyrial Tactician. The Anthology deck I'd like to spend some time on is Plunder the Graves, featuring Meren of Clan Nel Toth. Before Commander […]

60 to 100 — Creatures in the Toolbox
June 5, 2017 by
Matt Morgan 
Welcome everyone! Today we are trying something a little different. As you know, my previous series about the Singleton Guild Wheel wrapped up a couple weeks ago. With that completed, we are now moving on to a fresh mindset for my articles moving forward. The Guild Wheel was a known quantity for us, it wasn't […]

EDH Political Science — Edric, the Spy Who Loved Me
May 26, 2017 by
Rick Amundson 
Government agencies are still not beyond the use of covert espionage. There was a recent New York Times report that uncovered details of more than a dozen United States spies working in China who died or were captured between 2010 and 2012. It wasn't that long ago when the US was in trouble with a […]

EDH Benchwarmers — Kruphix, God of Colourless Mana
May 19, 2017 by
Andy Hull 
Last time I built a deck I made the fatal flaw of confusing NBA All-Star Demar DeRozan for classic centaur commander Stonebrow, Krosan Hero. This time I promise to make it up to everyone by giving a much-beloved and definite actual magic card, the benchwarmer treatment. This time we build a deck for Kruphix, God […]

Partner Focus — Thrasios, Triton Hero
May 16, 2017 by
Nate Burgess 
Thrasios, Triton Hero. This guy. I know plenty of Simic-loving players who would gladly use this guy as a backup partner, just for access to the blue green colors, and using him as a mana sink in the background behind whoever their actual favorite partner happens to be. Is it possible to design a deck where this guy […]

Matt Morgan
This article is part 10 of a 10-part series covering the Singleton Guild Wheel Project, a 10-deck project with only a single copy of any non-basic land among the 10 decks. Each deck uses the color combination of a different Ravnican guild. The methodology is introduced here and expanded upon each week by featuring a deck […]
EDH Political Science — Propaganda
May 12, 2017 by
Rick Amundson
Everyday we are bombarded with advertisements about one brand of soap or car insurance being the best offer on the market. We hear encouraging things from politicians about their policies. We work at places that tell us why "Jen" got a big gold star for being employee of the month. When we sit down at […]
