We dont like poison in EDH.:-/
OUR RULE ON POISON
[SPOILER]Our league requires a player get 21 poison counters to lose the game. Your Blight Dragon ain't so cool now, huh?[/SPOILER]
HOW DO WE HANDLE DECKS THAT COMBO OUT AND KILL EVERYONE IN MULTIPLAYER PODS?
[SPOILER]We have implemented what we call the combo out/sit out rule. Whenever a player combo's out or wins by a cheese stands alone effect, we say congratulations! You have won the game, collect your 5 victory points! Now you can sit there and watch the rest of use play out the rest of the game. This allows the remaining players to continue to try and accumulate victory points and most importantly-ENJOY THE GAME![/SPOILER]
HOW DO YOU DO MULLIGANS?
[SPOILER]In casual games we typically exile x cards and draw x cards until the hand is playable.
In competitive 1V1 we Paris Mulligan and in Multiplayer Pod start with a Gentleman's Mulligan (Freebie) then follow the Paris Mulligan rules.[/SPOILER]
HOW DO YOU SIDEBOARD IN YOUR EDH 1V1 TOURNAMENT?
[SPOILER]Rather than filling every deck with banal responses, it is preferable to allow some flexibility in the composition of a deck.
Players may bring a 10 card sideboard in addition to their 99 cards and 1 Commander.
After Commanders are announced, players have 3 minutes to make 1-for-1 substitutions to their deck.
Any cards not played as part of the deck may be retrieved by "wishes".
Reasoning: Highly tuned threats piloted by skilled opponents mandate efficient answers. The minimum number of response cards required to ensure they are available in the early turns can easily overwhelm the majority of an EDH deck's building space. Sideboards allow players to respond to the "best" strategies in a timely fashion .
[/SPOILER]
CAN I USE PROXIES?CAN I USE ALTERED ART CARDS?WHAT ABOUT GOLD BORDERED CARDS?
[SPOILER]-Players are authorized up to 10 proxies as long as that individual is in a legitimate active pursuit of said cards. Proxies must be tasteful full color representations of the cards. Alternate arts are fun and encouraged!
-Yes, we encourage the use of altered art cards. The basic rules of name and casting cost being visible is all that we ask.
-We count gold bordered cards as a proxy.[/SPOILER]
HOW DO WE START OUR DAY?
[SPOILER]We begin by having the general membership convene and bring up any old business or new business . This will typically encompass banning or unbanning requests, changes to certain rules that would benefit gameplay and introduction of new players. It is then decided if we will play casually for the day or have a sanctioned event.
We typically break after game two for IHOP or Ci Ci's Pizza Buffet and then return and finish the night or tournament.[/SPOILER]

Have your playgroup decided to allow nonlegendary creatures as generals or should Mistbind Clique read "Vendilion Clique" instead?

Man if I'll have to remember you guys if i ever have a spare weekend to head up to san antonio and check it out. I have a small playgroup in Victoria and we sometimes go to tournaments over there. Glad to see a dedicated commnder group starting up. Thats hard to find in all the places i've played around south TX.

Its a lot of fun, trust me! Victoria is not to far out (about 2hrs, right?), so message me if you and friends ever expect to come up!
I think a San Antonio team VS Victoria team 2 Headed Giant tourney would be awesome! Either way, Texas wins!
So much this. I'd love a large, stable playgroup to play with, and from what I've seen of you guys I imagine you're all quite fun.
It's kind of funny, I have a friend who just moved back to NH after living in San Antonio for two years :S
Our games get pretty fun!
Some weekends we do 1v1 sanctioned tourney's. No fun here, this is where we whip out our competitive decks and go for each others throats. We know what we are doing so there are no hard feelings when someone gets crucible of worlds and strip mine going or volrath's stronghold and fleshbag marauder. In 1v1 we try to get first place!
Multiplayer is where the fun starts :). Whoever has the most achievement-victory points at the end of the tourney is the winner! Some silly stuff really happens to get achievement points!

Man I live in Austin and I haven't found any EDH groups. I moved from Phoenix, Az and we had such a good big group that played weekly. Then coming here I only get to play with my wife.

Maybe I will consider the drive down there...
Wow, I thought there was a large EDH presence up in the central Texas area! Don't feel too bad, at least your wife plays with you! My wife views it as an affliction of sorts :(.
Any time you want to drive down and get some games on, just PM me before hand. We would be happy to have you!

For anyone in the San Antonio area, we are meeting this Saturday for what will most likely be casual play! Anyone interested in joining us come on out, we look forward to meeting new players all the time.
If your new to EDH or even Magic altogether, don't sweat it. We have plenty of decks to go round.

hey, just saw this post and would like to join in. I live in live oak so the drive would'nt be horrible. I guess i need to add my generals to the reserved list? Not sure if that would be done here on the forum or rather in person, but i plan to use Ertai, the Corrupted for multiplayer and Grand Arbiter IV for single player.
I look forward to playing some games with yall in the furture

Shouldn't be too bad of a drive, maybe 20 mins on 35 and 410 to Bandera rd?
I went ahead and reserved your generals. Our next official day will be October 6th (which will most likely be a 1v1 tournament).
We look forward to meeting you and playing some EDH!
And for anyone else interested, new to the game or experienced players, come on out and play some EDH!

My friends showed me this, thought I'd join in too
I'd like to reserve Sharuum, the Hegemon for 1v1, and Thraximundar for Multi, if that's cool with you guys.
We already play quite a bit of EDH, so this sounds awesome!
OH NOS SHARUUM!
Last I heard Sharuum and Uril were good friends though, right?
Your generals have been reserved and we look forward to meeting you. Since you heard about this from a friend, pass it along! The more players the merrier!
PS. Changing My 1v1 to Uril, the Miststalker guys....been working on him for a while, lets see how he does!

I live in San Antonio as well, and I would love to come and play, although i only currently have one Commander deck. is this ok?\
My General is Vela, the Night-Clad
Guess this will be a good excuse to build another commander deck!
Yeah, that is perfectly fine. We already have two members who only have 1 general that they have simply reserved for both 1v1 and multiplayer. Though, depending on the build, they are usually at a disadvantage in 1v1 or multiplayer:-/.
I will reserve your general and add you to our list of players.
Remember to check the leagues banned list prior to competing and we will see you on October 6th!
Once again, anyone else who wants to get some EDH 1v1 on or have some multiplayer goodness, come meet us out at Gamelot on Bandera Road October 6th at 5:00 pm!!

Anywho just a question about 1v1 format... Do you play best two outta three or just one and done?

Have your playgroup decided to allow nonlegendary creatures as generals or should Mistbind Clique read "Vendilion Clique" instead?
Thanks for the catch!....I hate all fairies anyway:D

So much this. I'd love a large, stable playgroup to play with, and from what I've seen of you guys I imagine you're all quite fun.
It's kind of funny, I have a friend who just moved back to NH after living in San Antonio for two years :S
Its a lot of fun, trust me! Victoria is not to far out (about 2hrs, right?), so message me if you and friends ever expect to come up!
I think a San Antonio team VS Victoria team 2 Headed Giant tourney would be awesome! Either way, Texas wins!
Our games get pretty fun!
Some weekends we do 1v1 sanctioned tourney's. No fun here, this is where we whip out our competitive decks and go for each others throats. We know what we are doing so there are no hard feelings when someone gets crucible of worlds and strip mine going or volrath's stronghold and fleshbag marauder. In 1v1 we try to get first place!
Multiplayer is where the fun starts :). Whoever has the most achievement-victory points at the end of the tourney is the winner! Some silly stuff really happens to get achievement points!

Wow, I thought there was a large EDH presence up in the central Texas area! Don't feel too bad, at least your wife plays with you! My wife views it as an affliction of sorts :(.
Any time you want to drive down and get some games on, just PM me before hand. We would be happy to have you!

I look forward to playing some games with yall in the furture
Shouldn't be too bad of a drive, maybe 20 mins on 35 and 410 to Bandera rd?
I went ahead and reserved your generals. Our next official day will be October 6th (which will most likely be a 1v1 tournament).
We look forward to meeting you and playing some EDH!
And for anyone else interested, new to the game or experienced players, come on out and play some EDH!

My friends showed me this, thought I'd join in too
I'd like to reserve Sharuum, the Hegemon for 1v1, and Thraximundar for Multi, if that's cool with you guys.
We already play quite a bit of EDH, so this sounds awesome!
OH NOS SHARUUM!
Last I heard Sharuum and Uril were good friends though, right?
Your generals have been reserved and we look forward to meeting you. Since you heard about this from a friend, pass it along! The more players the merrier!
PS. Changing My 1v1 to Uril, the Miststalker guys....been working on him for a while, lets see how he does!

My General is Vela, the Night-Clad
Guess this will be a good excuse to build another commander deck!
Yeah, that is perfectly fine. We already have two members who only have 1 general that they have simply reserved for both 1v1 and multiplayer. Though, depending on the build, they are usually at a disadvantage in 1v1 or multiplayer:-/.
I will reserve your general and add you to our list of players.
Remember to check the leagues banned list prior to competing and we will see you on October 6th!
Once again, anyone else who wants to get some EDH 1v1 on or have some multiplayer goodness, come meet us out at Gamelot on Bandera Road October 6th at 5:00 pm!!
