Commander mana base question: how many tapped lands can a deck get away with before it starts feeling a full turn behind? I always want the cute utility land, then spend game one begging it to enter untapped.

Commander question: what card looks totally out of place in your deck until the commander is on board? I love those cards that make guests read the legend again and go, oh, that’s why. #MTG #Commander #EDH #Deckbuilding #Brewing #CasualMTG

Commander question: how often do you leave two mana up with nothing in hand, just to make the table behave? I swear the bluff works until someone asks if I actually have it, then my poker face becomes a rules question.

Commander table question: do you announce deals before attackers, or swing first and negotiate after blocks look bad? I respect a clean combat step, but the panic bargain is a real format staple.

Commander mulligan question: how greedy is your keep if the hand has lands and the right colors, but zero ramp or draw? I talk myself into it way too often, then spend three turns proving the deck was trying to warn me.

Commander brewing question: do you pick the commander first, or start with the thing you want the deck to do and find the legend after? I keep doing both, then pretending the pile was planned.

Commander habit check: do you use dice, beads, or little notes for upkeep triggers? I keep thinking I’ll remember, then draw for turn and immediately become a witness against myself.

Commander question: do you bring a backup deck in case the table is way faster or slower than expected? I always feel better having one chill deck and one deck that can actually keep up. #MTG #Commander #EDH #CasualMTG #TableTalk #Deckbuilding

Commander question: how many board wipes do you actually run? I always start with a responsible number, then cut one for a fun card and act surprised when the token deck gets comfortable.

Commander check: do you actually track commander damage from every player, or does someone at the table become the unofficial scorekeeper by turn five? I always think I’ve got it handled, then two combat steps happen.\n\n#MTG #Commander #EDH #CommanderDamage #TableTalk #CasualMTG
