As I keep saying, Commander is the land of big. Get rid of all of the {Hovermyr}s, the {Cerodon Yearling}s, etc. Only keep small bodies if they have utility.

Thanks

So I updated my deck and modified the top post. I would appreciate some feedback if anyone has the time. Thanks in advance.

Repeat. You still have bad small bodies. Prune them.

Okay just a force of habit... You think I would have got it the first time...  Thanks again
Title: Re: Jor Kadeen
Post by: Darius on January 06, 2012, 06:02:22 PM
So I have tried to take out some of the weaker creatures and put in some bigger guys. One question I have is how much land do I need on average for an EDH deck? (this happens to be my first one and I have seen people say that you need 40 lands) thanks once again to anyone who helps me.
Title: Re: Jor Kadeen
Post by: BlackJester on January 06, 2012, 06:13:45 PM
If the Commander decks released earlier are anything to go by, 38-41 seems about right. Although I should leave that up to someone with experience in EDH.
Title: Re: Jor Kadeen
Post by: Darius on January 06, 2012, 09:43:24 PM
Thanks for the ideas. But yeah I agree on the 38-40 lands or so.. Well I'll see how it plays I guess.
Title: Re: Jor Kadeen
Post by: BlackJester on January 06, 2012, 10:26:43 PM
If you play Commander, do you have a couple {Command Tower}s?
Title: Re: Jor Kadeen
Post by: Darius on January 06, 2012, 11:12:30 PM
No I have been looking to buy one of the commander decks but keep forgetting to. Whenever I go to the store the only one I see is the political puppets one which doesn't interest me much. Is there one that you recommend?
Title: Re: Jor Kadeen
Post by: BlackJester on January 07, 2012, 12:15:36 AM
I thought that the RWB Angels & Demons deck had good value. They are all good, IMO. You could get the one with {Garruk, the Wildspeaker}.

Yeah just a minute ago I went and looked at prices on Amazon, and the heavenly inferno deck was going for $50 while the rest of them were going for around $25ish. I might get the mirror mastery deck but I'm interested in counterpunch too.
Title: Re: Jor Kadeen
Post by: BlackJester on January 07, 2012, 12:58:53 AM
Getting off topic, but oh well.

One grea thing about them is they all include a {Sol Ring} and {Lightning Greaves}.

Get them from a local walmart/target. You'll pay $30.

I've got one of each, unopened in Japanese. ;)

Ive got them all and Heavenly Inferno is more expensive as it the more popular and by far the best, followed closely by Counterpunch in my opinion (but I like control and creature ramp... so both those decks are right up my ally!)

Post by: Darius on January 07, 2012, 12:05:32 PM
That's true. Now I  just have to find one that isn't political puppets which seems to be in a neverending supply. (-_-) wish me luck...

Thanks for the luck! Today I was wandering around target and stopped to look at the cards. Saw the usual 4 copies of political puppets when then behind them all I found the Counterpunch deck... I just got it home a while ago and can't wait to tear it open.

Yeah just got done looking at it and am loving it. Also got a pack of innistrad and opened up Grimgrin the corpse born. Now off to bed for me...

I decided to change gears a bit and go with more equipment and since I had the knight duel deck lying around I would try and put some knights in. Now for a Quick question: What are the best white/red knights for edh in your opinion? Any help is greatly appreciated...
Title: Re: Jor Kadeen 2.0
Post by: Spikepit on March 06, 2012, 08:21:25 AM
{Kabria Vindicator} looks good.
Title: Re: Jor Kadeen 2.0
Post by: Darius on March 06, 2012, 07:21:34 PM
Yeah he is cool I originally had him in there and looking at it again he would fit well in the deck now. I also am planning on putting a Pentarch paladin in that I'm getting from a friend.

Have you considered {War Report} for a deck like this and some form of reanimation for all the little dudes of your deck?
Title: Re: Jor Kadeen 2.0
Post by: Darius on March 07, 2012, 09:18:27 AM
Hmm yeah I have looked at {war report} and it could gain me crazy amounts of life the way my deck has been playing. Regarding reanimating spells I only have {sun Titan} and {Emeria, the sky ruin} if I can ever get 7 plains out. What other red/white reanimation spells are there?

Well off the top of my head, there's no W/R reanimation but there Artifacts. {Grimoire of the Dead} or {Nim Deathmantle} for example.
Title: Re: Jor Kadeen 2.0
Post by: Darius on March 07, 2012, 06:59:41 PM
{nim deathmantle} is cool as it is an equipment. Plus I found it for 75 cents online, so I figured why not.
Title: Re: Jor Kadeen 2.0
Post by: Darius on March 08, 2012, 08:26:07 PM
Also, does anyone know of a good, cheap artifact/red/white Tudor for creatures?
Title: Re: Jor Kadeen 2.2
Post by: Darius on March 22, 2012, 07:53:59 PM
Just a minor update on cards. I decided {champion of the parish} fitted better than {stromkirk noble}. In addition, I put in {Pentarch paladin} and {nim deathmantle}. FYI the sideboard is cards I might put in.
Title: Re: Jor Kadeen 2.2
Post by: Spikepit on March 24, 2012, 03:49:08 AM
Took me a long time to realise but you should put more dual lands or lands with an ability in.
Title: Re: Jor Kadeen 2.2
Post by: Darius on March 24, 2012, 11:39:59 AM
Yeah i've wanted to do so for a while but a lot of the red/white duel lands are so expensive. I am getting a {ghitu encampment} , {forbidding watchtower}, {Sunhome, fortress of the legion}, and a {spinerock knoll} fairly soon.
Title: Re: Jor Kadeen 2.2
Post by: Spikepit on March 24, 2012, 09:46:52 PM
Great choices.
Title: Re: Jor Kadeen 2.2
Post by: Darius on March 24, 2012, 11:23:02 PM
Yeah I think that they are cool. thanks again to you and all the others who have given me great feedback for my deck.
Title: Re: Jor Kadeen 2.2
Post by: Darius on April 01, 2012, 12:54:28 AM
Soo while I know it might be a pain does anyone see any obvious trades I should do regarding the "sideboard" of cards I have.... Or anything else you can think of. Any advice is good advice.
