it gets worse when you look at mono-color decks. i *love* mono white but even I know that the card draw is abysmal. red cant deal with enchantments or indestructible well, green is... green is the favorite child. Any problems that colors or combinations have are lost as you add more colors.

sure, a commander of lesser colors may have an ability you'd rather have in the command zone, but the more colors you have, the more options in the 99. colors and combinations often have limitations. rakdos, say, cant deal with enchantments well. esper's ramp and large creatures are lacking.

idk. to me, one of the intended limiting factors of magic is that the more colors you run, the harder it is to reliably have access to them. stops all decks from becoming 5 color goodstuff soup, yk? i run blood moon to punish greedy manabases, but only in my mono-red decks. helps level the field

its so good 😭

i will never play free interaction save for the pacts. if i'm tapped out, it should signal that I dont have any tricks up my sleeve. pact of negation at least costs a lot the following turn

do people actually use the bracket system?? still havent seen anyone mention it aside from jokingly

Original Krenko. The cards that go in there seldom are good in other decks, so I may as well keep it together. Been slowly adding more cards to it since 2015. Not planning on taking it apart, ever.
