As someone that works in an LGS and frequently gets the “which of these precons should I get?” Questions, i really appreciate your breakdown of each of these. I really enjoyed both of the kaldheim precons and felt that asking someone to invest 20$ in a functional deck is WAY more well received than asking them to spend 40$

Rags on him for mentioning sol ring continuously. No issues with mentioning command tower every time.

I really enjoyed this video format, and the discussion. I don't have an hour of spare time so appreciate the stamps so I can watch the sections of commanders I was interested in.

As someone just now getting into EDH and looking at precons you guys really do the best job of breaking down not just the value but the reasons why you’d want to play these decks. Love your videos!!

Great timing for this video guys. We are starting a league up in January where you have to play one of the precons from this past year. Each week you get to upgrade $14-$22 each week depending on a ranking list that they have. With Coven Counters I would get $22 a week, so that might be a solid choice. Unfortunately Aura of Courage is only $14 per week for upgrades. But it was really good to hear what you guys thought of each of these.

My personal favorite was the Wilhelt deck. Most of the precons this year were far better than in the past, and Wilhelt is super easy to upgrade to make really powerful.

I love watching different KZreadrs discuss the 2021 Commanders and comparing/contrasting opinions. There seems to be a lot of consensus that there were a lot of great commanders that had total garbage in the 99.

I build a deck from the Galea precon, with Storvald in command. That giant brought so many great ideas in my head while I discarded the idea of a seven mana commander at the time of spoilers I started going the giant adventure tribal in the end. Stonehewer cares about equipment and Boonweaver cares for auras. Then I thought it cool to bring in intrepid hero to whack opposing creatures, and pump em with the giant if they’re not big enough, or throw a rancor/bloodthirsty blade on them to make valid targets. Then I came up with the adventure cards from Eldraine, starting with Giant Killer and Realm-Cloaked Giant. I think that deck was one of the greatest to go different routes and still do synergistic stuff every turn. What a casual commander gem!

Great idea for a video. Keep up the great work, can't wait for games.

Would you guys review the old precons for fun? I just want to hear you talk trash about some of the duds they used to toss into them. We’re honestly spoiled now by comparison, not necessarily as a whole, but nowadays the precons play much better out of the box

I second this!

Yeah I picked up the Galea and the Adrix and Nev precons this year, switch Adrix and Nev out for Esix, and both have served me REALLY well as my reintroduction to MTG after being out for like 7 years. Esix helped me learn all of the mechanics again and how to order triggers, and Galea got me my first introduction to Voltron and how important it is to be able to cheat equip costs and storm off the top of a deck. Really impressed with both.

Elven empire is definitely my favorite precon from this year because of how many $2+ elf tribal cards there were. There were a couple elves that I tossed out fast but they were easily replaced. If we’re talking about the deck that can make the cheapest upgrades to be a lot better, then I’d say Elven empire is damn near the top if not #1.

This is the perfect video i needed right now. Happy holidays, Nerds!

I've had my Prosper's commander tax up to 14 and still had no problem getting him out. Crazy value engine and I don't even run any infinites in my build. One of my favorite commanders in my collection and I've been playing since 2003.

I loved the witherbloom precon. Took out all the cards that gave counters and replaced them with more life draining cards and ramp. I also replaced the commander with Beledros. The deck is very effective.

Excellent analysis , it checks all the boxes. Subscribed immediately. Only 1 question, how Hellish Rebuke is not good ? I think the card it is great.

I recommend monologue tax, it is very good. Nearly always you get the mana out of it the first round it’s down, and I play it in a token synergy deck, so it really goes off. But since it’s not super insane it often stays around for quite a while since there are better removal targets

Note to self: Wilhelt: 13:30 Coven counters: 54:38

I'm pumped with Galea's placement! She's who I chose to get into edh with, and I'm happy to see her getting love!

Still playing Prosper and Osgir, very happy with those decks. I bought the Galea deck, converted it to a Tuvasa enchantments deck, and now I have a pile of equipment support.

I think people missed Robe of stars at first but it's definitely the final piece Voltron decks needs. Because after hexproof and indestructible, the next thing you need is protection from edict effects and cyclonic rift

This video' was great. I played out of the box coven counters, and this pointed out the issues I had. Couldn't draw cards after consecutive board wipes, and not enough removal

I run twenty sources of card draw/selection in my wilhelt deck. It's purely a combo deck(no thoracle though I have self respect) that aims to combo off by turn seven in the absolute worst situations, but usually hits 4-6. Rooftop Storm+Acererak/(gravecrawler and a payoff), or poppet sticher with a payoff and wilhelt, but if all else fails ashnods altar getting extra mama off wilhelt to cast a Torment of Hailfire. Definitely my most powerful deck, i call it Zombo Combo

the Wilhelt deck literally just needs minimal tweaking and it's great. I actually switched Gisa and Geralf to be my commander with Wilhelt in the 99, and it already works significantly better in terms of just amassing zombies. They're definitely right about the weird amount of non-zombies though, but there's TONS of amazing zombies to just swap in.

I was really hoping Galea would get it. As a longtime fan of Bant Voltron, super cool to see a natural upgrade/evolution to my boy Rafiq. That deck truly was stacked!

Just bought the #1 on your list at my LGS yesterday (before seeing this video) and it seems kinda lackluster in comparison to the 5-color deck (not on this list) I bought along side it. In play testing of the two, the equipments are very slow. Maybe the strategy is to get your commander out as fast as possible? Probably just RNG but the deck kept being mana-starved while precon 5-color deck I bought just went nuts with lands and could consistently bring out its 5-7 cost creatures.

I ended up swapping Adrix and Nev for Esix as commander and added a few more go wide spells in place of some counter cards and i think it makes the deck so much more interesting to play

One of Wilheldt's biggest detractions is that almost all of its reprints were only expensive due to supply and cratered when it was reprinted, and out of all the precons I've upgraded this year, I've taken the least number of cards out of it (adrix and nev is basically a completely different deck)

No one says oh this deck. It's fun for you and for other people playing. The Ghostly Prison effects are nice when it gets down to 1v1 but the commander makes a fun game of oh I'll hit that player I get cards.

Funny that the Leinore deck and the Adrix and Nev could really profit from some switch ups, the green token makers from Leinore to AnN and the green counter cards from AnN to Leinore

When is it?

As far as the precon decks themselves... I purchased 10/15. I agree with the strength of the Coven deck... but I ultimately bought it to scrap for parts. Out of the box, I'm straight up a Sefris or Osgir fan. But Leinore itself is probably the best commander of 2021 from the precons.

I’ve been meaning to ask - who put Solgaleo on the shelf in the background?

would have loved to hear more about the mana bases, quality of Mana Rocks and Dual Lands in particular. like there ought to be a series of boxes to be checked for "does this have the rocks" when evaluating Precons, "oh, sol ring and Arcane Signet, check and check. relevant Ravnica Signets?" etc etc. and the lands, are we talkin' tap lands, we talkin' Temples, we talkin' Fetches, Sac Lands, Shocklands, what are we signing on for? Maybe not in this format comparing a great number of decks, but maybe in a head to head or within a 4-5 precon release, assessing the Mana Base in detail would be uh... nitpicking.

I usually buy all the commander decks each year and my favorites this year were prosper and galea. the strixhaven decks seemed a bit underpowered in my opinion? maybe just not focused enough on one theme?

Yeah, my silverquill statement deck is a shadow of the original product. Only 30 cards (including non-basics, rocks, & removal staples) survived the cuts. Many of which I'm probably gonna cut anyways once I convert to Anafenza.

Would be really great if when you're listing what you're judging the cards on, you had some text pop up. Great episode.

The four Innistrad decks are just awesome, one of the best worlds from MtG loaded with tried and true themes. I also think Kaldheim moving MtG into Norse Mythology is a great direction, but the set felt very lackluster... they spread their Gods too thin when a mono-colored Odin, Frigg, Thor, Loki, and Heimdall would have been more than enough. The uncommon Kaldheim legends though pretty weak are just far more cool and interesting. (Ranar also feels more like Odin than Alrund) :^)

I need a deck that's finely tuned to play 1 on 1 commander against a top tier ghost chieftain deck, something to shut it down or something, any help or suggestions appreciated.

Galea is so fun and good that I changed out like 4/5 cards only and have it as a lower power deck that’s still fun and good. Also love with Ozgir having more mana than green decks, even more lands in addition to rocks if you have the Karn that pulls artifacts out of exile

Coven counters is solid. I love Kyler, he is expensive but so explosive. Give me a turn or so after I play him and I will swing the table for lethal.

Osgir for me is nr.1 :) Its a deck that i play A LOT - change a lot in it in time. From simple big artifacts "reanimate" deck with more "discard" outlet - to some fast draw/combo deck - eding now to amazing PL9 deck with STAX staregy and super fast mana... Gaela of me is nr.2 ... its my Favorite deck to play. I tried it in few builds too - but here i one was totaly the most fun and best. You build it as super fast pure equip deck ( Exept ramp Auras - they are amazing !!!) with super low cost for equipments and a lot creatures that lower cost of playing them. So the startegy is to put Gelea in game, and then really CHAIN 10+ cards from top - its amazing FUN :D What is best - even if i build this deck reallllyyy good (Great mana base - fetches etc. - all best equipments like Swords - and all best stuff to manipulate library + a lot Tutors) its not OP , and you can play it even in "lower" PL table - sure you can like make Galea 11/11 with DS in turn 4-5 ... but thats is still easy to STOP, and in best case scenario can kill 1 player... Nr.3 is elf deck... i love the deck i build based on the Pre-Con... problem is after all my upgrades and cards i want to run... i end up with may 20 cards from orginal deck ;P I still love my elf deck - but i could just buy the cards i needed - not the full Pre-Con... ;P

What are your top 3 precons this year AFTER your upgrades?

About adrix and nev. That precon used the fractal token theme from quandrix. I bought it because I had both doubling season and parallel lives in my collection and I wanted to use them. Something I didn't realize until I tried to copy a fractal in arena with esikas chariot is, fractal tokens can't be copied because they are 0/0 and the +1/+1 counters are not copied. So the fractal tokens that are a big part of adrix and nev, are a complete nonbo with adrix and nev. Not to mention the doubling season and parallel lives I wanted to use in the first place. Very unfortunate since I wanted to keep the quandrix theme, but its legit impossible to.

@ThePuppetTheFriendlyDude

10 ай бұрын

Actually, Adrix and Nev (and doubling season and parallel lives) do work with fractals! Esika's chariot doesn't because it copies the token on the board. Adrix and Nev copies the token before it is on the board, so the copies do get the +1/+1 counters. If an effect instructs you to create a token and then apply an effect to those tokens, copying the creation of those tokens will copy the effect.

Osgir and Millicent are my two favs from the year. I can't believe how strong prosper is tho. I completely underestimated and missed that one, but I think that's because i was focused on kindler of hope.

Another comment mentioned this: I think it would be funny to see you guys review the original Commander precons. If you KNEW the kinds of cards that were in that Kaalia precon lol

Wilhelt supercharged my zombie deck. I was playing Gisa and Geralf because Scarab God is out of my budget. Wilhelt was perfect. The issue with buying the deck was that there were so many cards in the precon that I already had in my zombie deck. But it added some nice stuff, too. I bought Galea because I love equipment decks but most of the cards went into my Boros equipment/aura deck. But I may have to just build Galea since it has blue and green in it. I'm also surprised you didn't mention Sword of the Animist. All you have to do is attack to Rampant Growth. My biggest issue with Coven Counters is the lack of actual value. I feel like if I want those individual cards, I'll buy them separately. I rarely play precons out of the box because I always want to rip cards for existing decks. In Wilhelt's case, he became my new commander for a deck I already had. Willowdusk gave me a bunch of great lifegain cards for my Leisa deck and the Osigir deck had a ton of stuff I needed for various decks. I was disappointed by the other Strixhaven decks for the most part. Veryran found a home but I feel like I really need to do something with Adrix and Nev. I have no plans to do anything with Breena. I don't have all of them yet but I'm looking at Strefan next. Prosper looks like it has some good value so that's a consideration and then the Dungeon deck looks cool. Galea is the only one I picked up from D&D so far though.

My main deck currently is Galea Enchantress deck and going into this video, I'm ready to expect Galea to be on the low number, maybe around 9. Didn't expect her precon to be number 1 lmao.

The best Precon deck was Zombies but the best Commander was Osgir. His ability to recur and copy artifacts is so damn power is absurd! Especially when it's mana artifacts like Grim Monolith and Mana crypt. It's really cool when it gets going

The best is Zombies or your favorite is Zombies? Definitely not the best power level wise.

Wilhelt definitely has a great CEILING for what you can BUILD. I have a friend who has been playing Wilhelt out of the box, and it tends to do a lot of nothing in our games because it's fragile. He'll dump 4 or 5 zombies out... then they'll all die to a boardwipe. Rinse and repeat.

Wilhelt is great. You just gotta replace 5-10 duds for some great zombies.

@@lukecullen7934 Right. That's what I was saying. WILHELT is a great commander. The deck STRAIGHT out of the box... not so much.

Mr thunder collector conductor was one of my favourite decks to pilot.
