So long as you can land a hot I suppose your be able to dig for one of your pieces, but having Arcades give all your walls the ability to attack is just much more convenient and consistent.

I have to be honest, Judith, Carnage Connoisseur scares me the most. Make an imp token that deals 2 damage to EACH opponent when it dies, or instants and sorceries you cast get lifelink and deathtouch, each time you cast an instant or sorcery. So I hope you have wondered what Electrickery and End the Festivities looked like with deathtouch because it’s one for one to three mana, if you are one of her opponents, all your creatures die in the most one sided of board wipes.

It's four mana for "whenever this card attacks, either your opponent takes 8 damage or you make an additional battle phase". Who the hell thought something like that would be fair!?

They are going absolutely ballistic this set. There’s like five must play commander cards and we aren’t even finished with spoilers.

Arcades makin it outta the walls with this one 🔥🔥🔥

So Mald, not sure if anyone told you this. Since the effect that lets you draw cards equal to booty size is in quotations, that is a trigger you can stack multiple times on the same creature. 4 mana for draw 15, how about 8 mana for draw 30? Also we're in Simic, so we will only be paying 2 mana for that ability each time.

Once you start playing simic you can't stop. The combination consistent land ramp and big bois from green and unblockable on every creature in the deck for funs and the best protection and card draw in the format is too much fun.

This card alone has convinced me to make a defender deck

"Creatures you control assign damage according to their toughness and not power" ...chew on that one.

Charix has found a new home.

This might be my favorite video ever posted on KZread. 11/10, complete banger, no notes.

I love that this is just so enabled for no reason

The Magic equivalent of the Superheavy Samurais. My beloved.

would love to see a defender deck built with this commander

Arcades, the Strategist goes hard with this guy. Dropping what’s essentially a 15/15 for one green is nutty

Cant wait to see you review the mole xD

I’m so incredibly excited to put this dude in my arcades deck; I just want to causally go “Draw 30; that alright?” As I hit my opponent with a ton of walls and draw a ton of cards

Simic is knocking at the door of your heart. Answer the call and break this commander

Straight into my Arcades deck

I was talking about this with my friend the other day, and making him notice that most of the "toughness damage" synergies are in white more than green, with little to no payoffs like that in blue; all in all, I'm not sure that losing one support color for an effect that requires 4 mana each turn is gonna be ideal. It's surely gonna be very strong in Arcades, though. On the bright side, people can finally play Turtle Tribal without having to put Archelos as the commander. : P

Every time they print a new ok skeleten i get closer to my dream

The biggest behind scientifically possible.

Yeah I took a glimpse of this card and wasn't ready for the bologna sandwich

Judith, Carnage Connoisseur is the new ocmmander of my dreams. This set is cracked

Im definitely putting this in my arcades deck

Something that me and Arcades have in common. We like us some chonk.

i cant wait to open mu brand new circle, i mean deck pieces

Simic introduced me into the Magical Wizards that weren't of Waverly Place, and I thought I had completely broken up with them when I discovered Rakdos. They taught me that I don't need to run Cultivate, nature's lore, three visits, etc land fetches. I just a sol ring, demonic tutor and a dream that the blue players don't view me as a threat until game 2. This amalgam is the first time I have looked back, and damn, that boy-fish-lizard got a booty. Time to find those land fetchers

Can't wait to see 500 card decks enter the field from this

That when you just run the blue enchantment that weakens all your creature’s power by one so you still get the =2/>2 effects

And then the bird came on to the scene amd you realized that "draw 15" is less than "draw as much as you want".
