How about Yarok as your commander, now you have tutors too :) Kodama of the East Tree too ;)

Keep in mind that Vorinclex does not specify "effect" like doubling season, and as a result, will also increase your own planeswalker upticks. Combined with the Ozolith, if you have a creature with 2 counters on it that dies, the Ozolith gets 4 counters, and when you move those counters off of it, the creature gets 8. It is also interesting to note that the doubling effect also works with energy and experience counters too. Edit: Spelling

Good Afternoon All, So with Vorinclex on the battlefield how would enemy proliferate work? Example: I have Vorinclex and im at 2 poison counters, Then one of my opponents proliferate once. Does that add a poison counter to me? Or does it half and round down which means i would get 0 additional poison counters as long as vorinclex is on the battlefield under my control. The way it was explained to me is when he proliferates and it "adds" a poison counter that gets by vorinclex. Im not to entirely sure. I have googled it and cant find a definite yes or no answer. Thanks for any information about this.

I miss the days when EDH was actually casual.

These are the kind of Commanders that have to identify themselves to their neighbors when they move into the format.

First thing in my mind when I saw the titel "Oh, I hope they didn't forgett hall of gemstones" - and yes, its in the video :D I love that card

Can anyone correct me on this? I thought the ruling was that since there are no halves in magic that you wouldn't be able to round down from half of 1 point since that would make .5 points. But on the other hand half of 7 is 3.5 rounded down is 3. Does the same apply do 1? So .5 is rounded down to 1. ? Can anyone direct me to an official ruling on this?

Can WotC just stop making sets "with Commander in mind". While it was nice at the start when they would dip their toe in with a card here and there that was focussed on Commander, this whole mindset is adding too much, too fast.

So I still think that there's definitely an appeal for rolling with Atraxa. The benefit of Vorinclex is that he has a better focused synergy with specific counters and has the doubling season effect stapled onto him in the command zone. Atraxa lacks this, but because she has access to more colors and cards, there are more directions that you can take her decks

Wow!!! Thats insane!! I need to get me that vorinclex lol!! I'm super stoked for the next drop of magic, Kaldheim looks so amazing
