With the coming release of MBS, we edh fans have a couple new toys to play with, and I know everyone is excited to see what will happen with the commander release this summer. What would you really like to see or see more of available for edh? Either just for your own selfish purposes or to make the format better?
But besides that I would love to see another nether void type enchantment for black. Even if it has to be in another Magus type cycle.
I want a blue card that is like the red one preview that says all players except for target player take an extra turn after this one. I think that is a very good politics card. Oh hey you want to do all that stuff really early and get a massive advantage? So does everyone else ;]. No extra turn for you.
Better tutors in red; how about a reverse-order gamble? something like 2RR, as an additional cost, discard a card at random, search your library for a card and put it into your hand.
--One of the things that bothers me the most about mono-red is how hard you have to push artifacts to compensate for the complete and utter lack of card quality available.
Colorless gauntlet of might: artifact creatures get +1/+1, whenever a land taps for colorless mana ad an additional one.
--Just thought it would be cute. Maybe make the lesser eldrazi legends more attractive, but it would probably would power Karn up too easily
A cheap artifact-ramp hoser with "destroy all artifacts with mana abilities"
--I am a bit sick and tired of decks that pack the same package of "explosive start enablers" that basically give them a 5% chance to completely blow you out with little you can do about it. This could be a nice way to punish them by adding a bit more fragility to their mana base.
I want a BRW Legendary Angel. More specifically, I want one Angel to rule em' all (mono (U/G) aren't very well known for angels, anyway, if it weren't for Bant)
I want a cycle of 4 color legendary creatures. You could fluff them as sages seeking harmony of body/mind - so, "X, Seeker of Inspiration," would be WUBR, "X, Seeker of Order," would be UBRG, etc.
I'd like to see more gigantic sorceries that don't immediately end the game. (Rite of Replication being the perfect example.) Maybe something that lets you rearrange turn order? God that would be a rules nightmare, but if it could be templated nicely it would be the ultimate diplomacy card.
Another good green planeswalker would be awesome. Seriously, Garruk is amazing and all, but he looks kinda lonely. I bet Nissa turned him down.

Counter spells stop everything. It's the condom Trojan dreams of making. But like condoms, if you don't have one, you still keep on playing and take the risk. Most of us wouldn't be here if this wasn't a fact.
I would like to see a colorless time walk effect on a colorless permanent.
Something like:
15 colorless mana for a 1/1 thing
thing can't be countered.
When you cast thing, take an extra turn after this one.
When thing is put into a graveyard from anywhere, its owner shuffles his or her graveyard into his or her library.
A more interesting W/B legendary. All three current W/B legends are fairly lame (Ghost Council and Teysa are very creature-centric, and Selena self-bounces, which isn't really necessary of a general). Something with a wrath/disk-type effect would be best, IMO.

White bombs that do something besides gain life or make a messload of tokens. Come on Wizards, can't you come up with something more original for white?
Also, while we are at it, how about a changeling general that has some tribal abilities?
Well, they kind of do, but he's not that great: Mistform Ultimus.
I want to see what Wizards does with these new EDH pre-cons, specifically with their WBR commander. Oros is cool and all, but I don't like how linear - and sometimes not all that useful - his ability is.
I want a UR general that won't get me instantly hated out of the game (Jhoira or Niv-Mizzet) and also won't be totally useless (Tibor & Lumia).
And this might be a bit out of left field, but I really want to see them make an even nuttier UG general. Momir and Kraj are both pretty damn awesome, but I want to see something really silly come out of those colors. Kind of like a mix between Ezuri, Renegade Leader and Azami, Lady of Scrolls. Awesome.
Seconded for a better red tutor. Gamble sucks to topdeck.
With the new Color Identity, I want something like a general with 2 or 3 colors, adding the 4th color color as something in the text box.
Something like:
Identity General 2WB G: Do something interesting. U: Do something cool.
It could be a cool and interesting cycle!

More interesting WR generals. Can't say any of them is really cool to try and play.
Another UG general. Sure, both the UG generals are cool, but there's only 2 of them, less than any color combo except wedge! And wedge is getting just as many as UG this summer!
Personally, I'd be giddy with.....
Enemy colored Refuge lands for cheap mana fixing.
Full cycle of comes in tapped dual lands with basic land types.
Wedge versions of the Shard lands (which me may very well get).
Some more/better graveyard protection for Black against stuff like Bojuka Bog.
More mana rocks along the lines of Coalition Relic and Darksteel Ingot.
A BW Zombie Commander so I can use Stillmoon Cavalier, Tidehollow Sculler, and Necromancer's Covenant in a Tribal Zombie deck.
A GB version of Debtors' Knell.
You?

My Trade Thread!
I would really like to see a spell printed like this:
3WWW Exile all non-land permanents.
I like the idea of red boardwipe except for wiping lands.
Something like:
15 colorless mana for a 1/1 thing
thing can't be countered.
When you cast thing, take an extra turn after this one.
When thing is put into a graveyard from anywhere, its owner shuffles his or her graveyard into his or her library.
That would make me happy
Now that I think about it.... an artifact creature mind slaver would be cool! (you can find it with eye of ugin)

No, the panoramas stink. They cost 2 and tap/sac to go get only a basic (no shocklands or duals). And then that comes in tapped. Just horrible.

Another UG general. Sure, both the UG generals are cool, but there's only 2 of them, less than any color combo except wedge! And wedge is getting just as many as UG this summer!
More multicolor Planeswalkers. Maybe a 5 color planeswalker.
The format could also use a few more lands that tap for 3 or more colors for newer players.
I also want a BUG general that isn't Vorosh and a USA general that isn't Numot. 6 months...
