Secret Lair Extra Life 2021 is confirmed. The kids drawing the cards are from the Seattle Children's Autism Center.
This Secret Lair will be worth $39.99/€44.99/£39.99/CN¥238.00/SGD 45.88 for the nonfoil version and $49.99/€54.99/£49.99/CN¥318.00/SGD 61.88 for the traditional foil version, including VAT for Britain and the EU. 50% of all proceeds will go to the Extra Life fundraiser.
These are most likely from the Extra Life fundraiser Secret Lair, which should be fully revealed... eventually. Wonder if those are the artists' kids making them, or Wizards employees'.
My biggest source of relief from Eleven is the eleven cards requirement. By the time you have that many cards in hand, you're either winning or you just became archenemy and will die for it.
That being said, friends forever does imply a million other partner variants silo-ed into themselves. That may be a good thing or a bad thing.
Wait a sec... so several PW involved in this ritual, including two of the old walkers (Teferi/Sorin), against a bunch of monsters who're likely weaker than Emrakul's crisis, and still the ritual failed? Am I missing something?
Whats is dat ugly blue black Zombie token ?
A Childs drawing ?
I kind of like it. Reminds me of the old artwork of the early days. Not the computer generated stuff that gets churned out all the time. That token will probably also be around a dollar a piece as well as I don't believe its ever been printed before.
Here's a list of her other cards to get a feeling for her style.
Took them a while, but our obligatory token dump is finally here. It includes sixteen creature token, two emblems, and the double-sided Day/Night reminder token.
We also got the breakdown of the tokens for the Midnight Hunt Commander decks, including which tokens come together in the same double-faced token card. Note that each row of tokens presented here moving forward represents 1 double-faced token.
First, all the Zombie token variations (and 1 Clue token) from the Undead Unleashed deck: (6 copies) (2 copies)
The Coven Counters decks has the most unique double-faced tokens of any of these set-bound precons, but they're mostly just Spirit, Wolf, and Spider tokens.
Where do you get that "casual people overall agree," "everyone just takes the banned list as a benchmark," "any casual form will basically ignore the banned list"? Got any evidence? Any poll?
Yes, the EDHREC salty list is made of over 3,471,000 votes do give the cards in question a salt-score.
Its WAY more comprehensive than the limited banned list.
The massive amount of decks uploaded on the site is also a pretty defining indicator what people actually enjoy to play and what they better let on the bench if they make casual decks and not competitive ones.
The only thing that doesn't work is trying to make a banlist that covers both casual and competitive. But that problem isn't the fault of the established list and rules committee who have made it clear they care about casual play; it's a problem made by people wanting to co-opt an existing format and twist it to their own ends at the expense of those it was made for.
The existence of an "official" banned list for the format is what produces this issue of having only 1 list.
If they realized that, they could certainly have 2 lists, with both directions in mind and thats not even complicated or much work, its just that you have to do it, or you dont and people will rightfully forever critique that problem.
In the end being the "official" list carries weight no matter who likes it or not.
Like the salty card list or not, edhrec.com is still one of the most defining and comprehensive sites for the Commander format and has plenty of data to see what cards work best in the format and which ones are problematic.
You're also assuming everyone uploads their lists to a site EDHRec gets from. Lots of people still used TappedOut (which EDHRec doesn't dredge decklists from), and exponentially more don't upload lists online at all. The more enfranchised group EDHRec pulls from is also highly susceptible to content creator-mediated swings, like a spike in certain commanders when a famous content creator makes a deck tech video. Not saying it's not a large source of data, but it's not completely unbiased data either.
According to one of my friends at my locals, the cEDH community didn't take the recent ban on Golos, Tireless Pilgrim too lightly as someone just started an online petition to convince the EDH Rules Committee to unban Golos for EDH / Commander claiming that their recent bans / unbans as of late proves that they're completely out of touch with the format. There was already speculation that the EDH Rules Committee was pushing for the cEDH community to create their own separate ban list for cEDH instead of following the traditional ban list for EDH / Commander back when Hullbreacher got banned from the format because it was more of a linchpin card for the competitive side of the format compared to casual where it was more oppressive. If you've seen that one Game Knights episode where Cassius Marsh pressured Josh Lee Kwai into casting Deflecting Swat to save the playgroup from Hullbreacher then you know what I'm talking about. Cassius tried to deny everyone cards by casting Timetwister with Hullbreacher to net Treasure tokens.
Why the hell do "cEDH players" care about Golos being banned? It's not played there outside of some 5-color Turbo Naus build that wants Boseiju, Who Shelters All in their command zone, but Codie has eaten that surprisingly small space almost entirely.

The last two.
For those wondering, the Magic-flavored versions of these cards have a 1 in 8 chance of appearing in a Streets of New Capenna set booster.
Rest of the Stranger Things Secret Lair and all the other SLs to come with it should be announced in a bit. Until then, we have these three.
Another two, including one that turns into 5-color with Eleven.
