@Xoth: OK, I guess we pretty much have a control/Stax type of build there then... but if it's too mean for your playgroup, then I guess it's best that it doesn't actually happen.
I don't really play Standard and Modern... EDH is pretty much all I play. Though I hardly ever make decks, I just keep the three main ones I use.
I think I figured out what to cut to put the two new Dragons into my deck, but then the problem will come a few months later if more amazing Dragons come out in the set after, as I won't know what to cut then...

Yeah, it's mono blue stax with Chisei, Heart of Oceans. It was more of a thought exercise anyways.
I just recently built a Radha, Heir to Keld dragon tribal deck with a sub-theme of extra combat phases (i.e. Savage Beating). This was basically spurred by the spoiling of Atarka, World Render, which I have yet to get a hold of.
Hey peoples. My birthday is coming up and I plan on ordering some cards, including a new commander. I was thinking about Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord because I can play it from two different angles. I was just wondering what everyones opinion on him is and/or suggestions on other possible commanders.

Jarad is awesome. He currently leads my oldest deck.
Cons:
- Sometimes complex turns take longer than normal
- May draw hate depending on group power level (under 9000)
- Easy to misplay
- Graveyard Hate sets Jarad back quite a bit
@PegasusBishop: I'm not too keen on 3 or more colors. There is just something about them that turns me off.
@Xoth: I have a Golgari Grave-Troll I want to do something with so Dredge is a Pro-plus. My playgroups tend to be over 9000 so it probably won't draw hate every game and graveyard hate isn't common. That being said, everyone I play with will adjust decks based on what everyone else is playing. Bojuka Bog is in most black decks but nothing beyond that.
Guys, remind me: Next time madhatter says "You should be totally baking macarons, they are really easy and won't take long", remind me to confiscate his decks and make him play with mono-G elf tribal, without a single non-land, non-creature card in it.

O.o please no.
How did you manage to screw up macarons? It's, like, 4 basic steps. Whip egg whites into meringue. Add almond flour. Squeeze into disks and wait an hour. Bake to perfection. XP

I don't wanna play mono-Green Q_Q
I just used these instructions they came out perfect.
If you exile a permanent card that you can't put onto the battlefield (such as an Aura with nothing legal to enchant) or one you don't want to put onto the battlefield, Primal Surge finishes resolving.
Sure, stop the Surge whenever necessary. Though if things like Regal Force are in there, it could be a bit problematic if that card pops up late in the chain.
I admit I enjoy grindy decks a lot more than explosive ones. Not sure why D: (Hence why Sharuum is my favorite deck and Prossh, despite being in my favorite colors is barely played :c )

I'm working on a dragon tribal for Karrthus. That's the obvious option. Also Atarka is good with haste.

Jarad is awesome. He currently leads my oldest deck.
Pros:
- Fun
- Resilient
- Challenging
- Powerful
- Dredge
Cons:
- Sometimes complex turns take longer than normal
- May draw hate depending on group power level (under 9000)
- Easy to misplay
- Graveyard Hate sets Jarad back quite a bit

You can easily go cutthroat by adding
Tutors: Imperial Seal, Vampiric Tutor
Dirty combos: Mikaeus, the Unhallowed, Triskelion, Necrotic Ooze etc.
and...Phyrexian Devourer. This is a one-card win with Jarad. You activate the ability for free until you can kill the table, and with the death trigger on the stack you sac it for lethal.
And... a Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord deck? Alright, sounds good... hopefully that works out well.

And then he'll lost to Elvish Visionary.
I lol'd reading this in the middle of class and the professor looked at me weird.

(Though you're always allowed to stop the Primal Surge one card short...)

Yet I like control decks in other formats (UB control in standard. Scapeshift in Modern. Stoneblade in Lagacy.)
