    If there's one thing I know every deck needs, it's a commander. I generally tend to gravitate towards the types of commanders who flood the board with tokens such as Krenko, Mob Boss.

    Alternative graveyard hate is Stone of Erch, it exiles dying creatures, and for two mana exiles target graveyard and draws, it is surprisingly good because a lot of creatures have when x dies, this does not happen. Also, for anybody that wants to just run 33 lands, try to have a curve that effectively ends at 2 (this is not real advice, unlike the rock)

    @@coryledwitch6492 You know can have just have an opinion and argue that in a friendly manner? You don't have to go full snarky/arrgoance with that "ummmm.... firstly", then not even have a "secondly" and then really your argument basically boils down to "it's a 3-colored spell" and "the effect "isn't worth it". 1. If one mode is very playable, then it doesn't matter how bad the other modes on the card are. Just treat it as the card that you'll only ever cast at that one mode. Or are you dismissing every single card with kicker because the non-kicker mode is boring? 2. being 3-color specific doesn't make a card "bad" in exactly those decks that CAN play it. What would be the argument here? That the 3-colored Ultimatums are all bad because they're restricted to 3-colors? WWBR is not a dificult mana cost to pay at the time that spell is relevant unless you have super budget mana bases and even then you're not casting Mythos of Snapdax turn 3 after your turn 2 arcane signet because it's a mid to late game card. 3. It's basically the card Tragic Arrogance (which was featured in this very video) for one mana less, if you're in WRB. It's certainly not a "smelly dumbster fire.

    ​@@coryledwitch6492Hey, couple of things. Whilst I'm sure people appreciate your opinions and advice as an experienced player, it's important to remember that they're still your opinions and are not objectively correct. Also, the way you portrayed your points came across as a little arrogant and rude towards the, presumably, less experienced people in this thread. On the "Mythos of" cycle, I've played a couple of them and have found them to be both fun and effective. Objectively speaking, they're more mana-efficient, but colour-intensive equivalents to similar effects (e.g. Mythos of Snapdax vs. Tragic Arrogance), with less powerful modes that can be used in cases where you can't meet the colour requirements properly. They're definitely playable in decks that can support the colour requirements (which is becoming increasingly easy with increased fixings options), and outshine their counterparts by being more mana-efficient. Seeing as they're cheap to pick up, they're worth giving a go if you think they'll fit your deck, or just like the art/flavour etc.

I'm not the original poster here, you were simply being a bit of a dick to that guy comming in with that "ummmm, actually"-attitude. Nothing about your opinion was "humble" so maybe reconsider using that word. Also, I didn't say that you didn't have an opinion, you obviously do. You were missing convincing ARGUMENTS to support that opinion. Again: It makes zero sense say that mythos at 4 mana is somehow complete trash vs a card that does the exact same thing but at 5 mana and comes recommended, for the sole reason that it can only be played in Mardu. Paying 4 mana instead of 5 to get the same effect as a card that is considered playable is not "jumping through hoops" maybe it is, if Mr. "33 Years of Magic" is still playing with 30 basic lands in his EDH-Decks? What hoops are you jumping through besides trying to not having a terrible manabase after "33 Years" of magic? And somehow "goes into any deck" always beats "restricted by color identity" in your head. By that same logic, Noble Hierarch is worse than Llanorwar Elves because Hierarch can only be played in Bant. And because of that I shouldn't play hierarch in... Bant? I guess "Terminate" is also worse than "Murder", because you can only play it in Rakdos and Murder costs a Mana more but can be played in every black deck. Why jump through hoops and play Terminate when you can just play murder! 🤡 Also Alpha came out in 1993. If you have played this game for 33 years (checks calendar), it's either the year 2026 or you were designing this game together with Richard Garfield, or you're really bad at math. I'm guessing it's the last option, since you seem to think "4-mana card trash, 5 mana card okay." The other option is of course that you're simply lying and that "having experience" somehow counts as an argument. (It actually doesn. 😱) Also I didn't even discuss the other Mythos cards (and at no point claimed all of them were great. Why are you making things up in your head?) because your arguments were irrelevant in the first place. All the other mythos cards might as well be terrible, but not for ANY of the reasons you mentioned. "Regeneration still exists". -> Okay boomer. Great job at now moving goal posts. Besides Wrath of God not even being a relevant comparision when, in this very video, they were talking about -> asymetrical boardwipes

    I feel like people aren't ready to hear this, but if graveyard hate is something every deck should run because any deck can potentially use the gy then every deck (that can) should be running artifact hate. Not just the destroy effects either as that barely solves the issue. I mean collector ouphe effects where it's never getting used in the first place.

    I love when people play 1 sided wipes. Especially when they don’t mention them during the Rule 0 discussion. It makes it so easy to get the Rule 0 restrictions thrown out the window to a significant extent for Game 2 & onward, without coming across like the bad guy. A lot of people I’ve run into take having your deck set up to either protect all your stuff through a bunch of symmetrical wipes, or playing asymmetrical ones like the control version of playing Infect, for lack of a better comparison. It’s not pseudo-cEDH’ing like Thoracle’ing, but it definitely sends the message “This isn’t a janky friendly game.”

It’s been my experience that people loosen up about what “Isn’t fun to play against” when certain strategies get employed. For example, an Urabrask deck popping off turn 5 and carrying out a successful pod-kill. If the other couple people playing are willing to play against Mr. Machinegun again, they generally won’t fuss about the game shifting to more cutthroat stuff being permissible.

    I will throw in graveyard hate when the pieces have other synergy for my deck. Playing artifacts? I will add soul guide lanter sure but I’m not going to just slot in a random graveyard hate piece outside a bog or scavenging grounds. 1-2 cards for that purpose is unlikely to come into play unless I’m tutoring for pieces. I would rather sit down to a table and put early pressure on the decks I know are going to be a problem for my strat. Playing a graveyard deck and I don’t have hate? You’re probably getting some early game heat from me and I’m keeping two eyes on you at all times. I try not to hate out anyone just because but this is how I like to play.

Slotting in cards because they might help you a small percent of the time is just a bad idea. Use things that will accelerate your gameplan and removal that always keep enemies in check. If someone has a deck you're worried about comboing off, then the solution is to get better friends to play with. No one should want to win via combo, infinite anything, infect, etc. This is the greatest game in the world and when played for fun, there is nothing like it. Let's not forget that having a good time is the goal and winning is just a perk if you can.

    Graveyard hate is just another form of interaction like removal. Obviously it gets better against certain decks, but you'd be hard pressed to find a deck that doesn't do at least something with its graveyard.

    Regarding point4 in green: I'm with Kibler on this actually, don't contort your deck and play subpar cards to try to handle every possible thing. Have removal, but something like Constant Mists you need like Helix Pinnacle, yuck. You'll win more games playing good cards than playing bad solutions to rare situations.

    Petition to start using the term "graveyard interaction" rather than "graveyard hate"! A Bojuka Bog isn't really hate in the same way as Humility is creature hate - it's just interaction. I think calling it interaction will help people assess it better and understand the need for being able to interact with that zone of the game, rather than a more abstract idea of "hating on graveyards" :)

    ​@@Bstone410 card advantage doesn't make up for missed land drops and you kind of need those lands before you can use your card advantage. IIRC you have an ~87% chance of drawing into at least three lands in your first nine cards with 37 lands and it goes down from there. unless im popping a preordain or a faithless looting turn one every game i don't see how more card advantage helps me consistently make my first 4-5 land drops. later in the game sure but nothing sets you up for a loss faster than missing land drops on those opening turns. i've had so many games immediately upended because i miss an early land drop while my opponents don't and ramp on top of that which just compounds their advantage going into the later stages of the game. if i'm at 5-6 mana and they're making 8-9 going into turn 6 or so that's a huge problem that card advantage in and of itself also isn't going to solve.

    Ruinous Ultimatum is one of my favorites. I have won games with it in my Syr Gwyn deck without a single attack (Syr Konrad for the win!). I love it. I don't explicitly play graveyard hate in my Narset deck, but SHE is graveyard hate. Those noncreature spells can be MY noncreature spells. There is nothing more fun than casting someone else's Rise of the Dark Realms. This deck would absolutely be ruined by a lot of graveyard hate though. I should probably put Lion Sash in there though. 🤔
