Discussion has already been going

The name change is not a huge deal. I tend to agree that most of those experienced in the format will stick with calling it EDH. The name doesn't change the functionality, especially since it's been Commander on MTGO for some time already.

I'll reserve judgment on the precons until we actually see some lists. If the spoiled one is any indication, most of them will probably be too expensive to be serious commander options. I'll be interested to see if I get a better UBG option than Vorosh.

I really see more merit it using Teneb in that color combination.

not sure how anyone can play reanimation based decks in EDH. The GY hate in our circle is beyond ridiculous sometimes. It likely stems from my Revillark use. For some reason when you use things like body double, karmic guide, spike weaver, and glen elendra archmage, people don't like soft locks. Its a good way to fight annihilator when you just sac your whole team when they attack and it all just comes back, lol.

Wish I had this problem, one kid in my just packs 15% of his decks with enchantment/artifact hate.

That really isn't too surprising - your deck should be prepared for any sort of eventuality. I have 3-5 cards for graveyard hate alone (Faerie Macabre, Bojuka Bog, Relic of Progenitus off the top of my head).

Speaking of Scars Sealed, I'm going to a PTQ on Saturday, and the format is Scars Sealed with T8 drafting. Any suggestions for the sealed format, aside from general sealed advice?

Finally - a card store near me has LOADS of old sealed product, including an old favorite - Onslaught Tournament packs! I forgot that these (and old old precons) used to come with survey sheets to fill out and mail back. If I fill out an Onslaught one, do you think Wizards will get it? I'll keep you guys updated

edit: Here is the survey, filled out. Sorry for the terrible quality, it's my webcam.

I run a Doran deck (treefolk, obv.) and would be interested in seeing your deck list. It seems a bit odd to use Doran just for reanimation when...

makes so much more sense.

I'm pretty interested to see what the other "wedge" legends are along with the other 40ish new cards. I do like the idea of giving everyone but one player a 5/5 flying dragon. Pretty fun way to bite your thumb at one person . Not sure I will buy any of the precons, as I probably already have most of the cards that will be included. I do hope that KEN and team went with interesting builds and not just auto includes like Sol Ring, Top, Greaves etc. Sure, it would be nice to make those cards more widely available but a little creativity from up high would be nice to see.

Haha, I'm actually going to a PTQ in Philly. Funny coincidence. A good place to find general sealed advice would be searching sites like StarCityGames and ChannelFireball.

Does anyone play commander on MODO? Is it pretty easy to get games going and do people actually play them out? Or do you get a lot of people quitting at the point someone makes even a semi-broken play?

Is $5 too low for it?

Thoughts?
