CommanderCast S2E2 [15]- We’re So Silly
July 26, 2011

Otherwise, this week is the same CommanderCast stuff that we do every week. Your opinion on that being a good or bad thing is obviously subjective, but you’re here for a reason I assume.
Show notes and links below.
06:39 to 15:57: Free-For-All-Roundtable: Partial Paris Mulligans: Believe it or not, Partial Paris mulligans are actually a formalized part of the EDH rules. If you’re not playing with it, you’re house-ruling it. Did you know that? Apparently, lots of people don’t. We’re discussing the value of this mulligan system on the roundtable today.
36:06 to 53:08: Strategy: Hosers: When we talk Hosers, we don’t mean Canadians (necessarily). Instead we’re looking at cards that are often considered ‘too narrow’ because their effects might not do much in a given game, but Nick is on to a different theory. Beyond actually using them, WHEN should you use them, and which ones?
53:22 to 54:50: Technology: Break My Card: It’s our new thing on Twitter. STRICTLY for our followers there because before this our e-mail guys got all the love (and the contest). Here’s how it works:
- Once a week, I give you a single card. It can be anything.
- You let me know how to use it via Twitter. It has to be in one Tweet. You can use short versions, abbreviations, and acronyms, but if I can’t decipher them you’re busted. You can’t send a second tweet, e-mail, or telegraph to explain what you mean.
- You have to tell me what Commander will be in charge of the deck the card is used in. After that, you can say whatever; a combo? Some synergies? The type of deck it works in best? It’s up to you to do something awesome with the card.
This week’s card to break is TELEKINETIC BONDS.
