"He's a lot like me, that masterless little kami . . . unimpressed by grandeur and never at a loss for a trick."

Multiplayer Group Hug Deck

Our chubby little friend here aims to spread joy and love over the planes of Dominaria and beyond. He bleeds blue, through and through. And what does blue love?

UU DRAWING CARDS! UU

He aims to give everyone all the answers they could ever want. Draw many cards, my child. Never want or wish for land or home. Gather your minions and friends. Acquire your treasures and lay them for all to marvel upon.

Most of the cards are pretty straight forward, their interactions obvious. There are a few cards worth mentioning that I love. These are what make EDH the wonderful format it has become. The mundane or odd become stellar when given the opportunity.

My Good Friends

I generally play with a group of three other guys. Two of them I have been playing with for ~2 years, and the other is new to our circle (as well as the game). It is a casual group, though we play to win. We combo out on occasion, build ridiculous board states only to lose the game two turns later, and occasionally we are too wasted to remember to draw. We drink, we smoke, and we call each other names alluding to our inferior genetics and/or obscure sexual preferences. Typical guy's night out, kitchen-table shenanigans.

Player "X": This is me. Played when I was in elementary school, and just picked up the game again two years ago. I am a Johnny, through and through. My "Good U/C" boxes are full of interesting cards, as well as time-tested staples. I read on other people's strategies before building decks, and will occasionally order 30+ cards because I've never played a specific archetype before. I love to combo out, or create vast armies of tokens. I play G in almost every deck. I favor pillow forts over control, and I favor utility over strength. I don't win all my games, but it's usually splashy when I do.
Player X: Johnny, BUGW, Combo/Token.

Player "N": Long-time player, occasional standard FNM or Modern tourney. He's our Spike. He plays blue and/or black in every deck. Grixis is no stranger to our table. He has the largest, and most impressive collection at the table, and his decks show this He is my arch-nemesis, and has been for a while. We take most opportunities to stop the other in their tracks, regardless if they're the biggest threat at the time. He favors hard removal, well-timed sweepers, and counter-spells.
Player N: Spike, UBRG, Removal/Counters.

Player "J": My former roommate, started playing about three months after I did. With a gracious donation of THOUSANDS of cards from a co-worker, we began cobbling together causal 60-cards deck to bring to our regular gathering. When Player N started playing EDH, so did we. He favors large creatures, splashy spells, and tends not to remove threats until they affect him directly. His favorite deck is Mayael, and he continuously looks for ways to improve it. He relies on packs for his staples, rarely making the trip to our LGS or ordering singles.
Player J: Timmy/Johnny, RGWU, Fatties/High CMC.

Player "A": Brand-new player. No experience in constructed, started playing EDH with us a couple months ago using C13 pre-cons and donated staples. His card pool is narrow, new, and inexpensive. He is slowly learning the ropes, and we coach him as best we can. He gets to "redo" or "rethink" when needed. Prefers large effects and keeps to himself when playing. We try not to kick his teeth in too hard, unless absolutely necessary. Currently playing Jaleva and Derevi.
Player A: Ultra-Timmy, WUBRG, "It looked good."
