The Deck Dr.

Hello there, MtG players. I'm Chewie Styles (aka the Deck Doctor) and my goal is to deliver objective reviews of MtG products, primarily via Commander.

@EFAPMeme, thought you'd appreciate these.

[The Deck Dr. @drchewiestyles]

@wachelreeks Actually, part of the problem with the set is that it replaced Partners all together with Backgrounds. Also the reliance on dice rolling on certain cards, and Schrodinger's dungeon. I understand what they were going for, but that doesn't make them good ideas.

[The Deck Dr. @drchewiestyles]

@mathimus55 I wouldn't say that. My issues are mechanical. Reliance on dice rolling, Schrodinger's dungeon, and backgrounds replacing Partner. All terrible.

[The Deck Dr. @drchewiestyles]

@ghirapurigears I agree. I'm in the camp that they should commit to value reprints. The packs are too expensive anyway. Might as well go all in.

[The Deck Dr. @drchewiestyles]

@MauLer93 Why in the 9 Hells would anyone want that?!

[The Deck Dr. @drchewiestyles]

Commander Legends 2: Baldur's Gate Boogaloo averages out to be an overall B-. What do you think?

[The Deck Dr. @drchewiestyles]

@Lakanna000 @wachelreeks Fair enough. The wording seems to indicate otherwise, but I'll accept the official ruling.

[The Deck Dr. @drchewiestyles]

Commander Legends: Baldur's Gate gets a C+ from me. What's your thoughts on it?

[The Deck Dr. @drchewiestyles]

@ghirapurigears I haven't seen many issues in my area, outside of one person who only has tier 10 decks and refuses to go lower. Most of us run in the 5-8 range.

[The Deck Dr. @drchewiestyles]

@ghirapurigears Edit: I don't believe the token would get the boost, due to the fact that they're not declared attackers. They're already attacking as they come in. However, the noncopies still get the boost from the copies because it would trigger after the tokens are already in.

[The Deck Dr. @drchewiestyles]

@ghirapurigears You can trigger the Myriad first, then the boost.

[The Deck Dr. @drchewiestyles]

@ghirapurigears Well. Alrighty then...

[The Deck Dr. @drchewiestyles]

How do we feel about Backgrounds? Personally, I like the flavor, but would've preferred more Partners.

[The Deck Dr. @drchewiestyles]

@Gubbymtg @ghirapurigears That being said, you won't have to worry about the Legendary rule with things like Mirror Gallery and Mirror Box.

[The Deck Dr. @drchewiestyles]

@Gubbymtg @ghirapurigears Now, because of how the order of operations functions, you have to pick by reverse order in which they came out. So, the wolves, then the initial creatures.

[The Deck Dr. @drchewiestyles]

@ghirapurigears Yes. Myriad triggers when the creature attacks and Isshin doubles abilities that trigger as creatures attack. As a side note, the Myriad from the equipment doesn't stack with a creature that already has Myriad.

[The Deck Dr. @drchewiestyles]

@Only_Lands @wizards_magic If anything, we need more reprints of high value cards to make them more affordable and available for the average player.

[The Deck Dr. @drchewiestyles]

@NexusMTG I have a mono black build run by og Chainer. The idea is to kill my opponent's creatures so I can reanimate them and beat them with their own creatures. I call it "Pet Sematary".
