Hello everyone and welcome to CommanderCast Episode 267! We’re your weekly source for Community, Strategy, and Technology, hosted on MTGcast.com and our homesite CommanderCast.com! This week Mark is joined by Adam as they  discuss Windows More. Do you have your opponents against the rope? Is the game one move away from being over? Do you take this opportunity to end the game… or do you proceed to play more than needed to insure your victory? If you chose the second option… you might be interested in today’s episode.

Community:

Free-for-all-Roundtable: What’s the definition of a “win-more” card? (Actually, it’s right here, in case you were wondering.)

• Anthem effects (Crucible of Fire)
• Mark’s examples: Transcendent Master, Dragonmaster Outcast, Crush of Wurms

The candelabra really puts it over the top

Strategy:  

Possibly my favorite title for a Strategy segment ever: “when to finally cut all that win-more bullshit from your deck.”

1. Define your win con(s)
   1. Some things that seem like win more can just be your actual win con (like Craterhoof Behemoth)
   2. Can you fit your strategy for the deck into a single sentence? Once you can, stick to that plan and cut out the things that don’t directly support it.

1. Stay focused on making your win-con happen
   1. Instead of running a win-more card, run win insurance cards: Dauntless Escort, Pact of Negation, Golgari Charm
