Awesome call--even better, it now makes all creature cards in my graveyards fungi for Thelon's ability.

Newer EDH rule: General's colors are referenced by their "Color Identity" --> all colors of mana that appear on the general.

Check the site dude =]

Newbe: I hope you appreciate the irony your name brings to this situation. ;-)

I actually really dig the differentiation between a card's color and it's color identity. I've been wanting to find a search engine that allowed you to sort by color identity--this would be super handy in deck-building, especially for lands.

Wow...I never realized how helpful that would be O_O

Good point dude! Now what I really want to know is if Withengar Unbound can be used as an EDH general (starts in the command zone as Elbrus, the binding blade, but can be cast from there like a Gen). My group is already going to allow it, but I want to see it official.

I would think so, citing the fact that the "flip" cards in the Kamigawa set can be used as generals. Too bad you wouldn't be able to Orzhov that one up, though: Stoneforge/ Outfitter with Elbrus? GEEZ.

Exactly. And our group has always allowed Kaldra (all three pieces start in the Command Zone), so it works the same way really. Kaldra, by the way, might be hard to cast (total of 12 colorless mana)...but once Kaldra's on the field, it's pretty freakin hard to deal with a 9/9 First strike, trample, haste, indestructible that exiles anything it deals damage to O_O

Orzhov colors would be amazing, but for that, and many other reasons, way too good =P

My current idea is to make it a proliferation-boosted Voltron design with other shenanigans thrown around. The simple fact is, if I can get Withengar adequately protected...there's damn near nothing to stop him. His +13 counter ability is practically custom made for EDH...

If you're wondering what other "non-creature" Generals we allow...There is Genju of the Realm and Merit Lage (Merit is actually not too terrible...color identity IS black =/). Used to also include Tatsumasa, but it turns out, only the sword is legendary...the dragon it makes is not!

Yeah, Elbrus + White would be quite good.

There is one black card that mentions equipment. 1!

But black does have evasion and mana accel, and artifacts are artifacts.

Elbrus can be used in ANY EDH deck because it only count the front side of a flip card to check color identity. I'm throwing him in my Hanna Caw Blade/Prison EDH. I had a funny game with an Isochron Retard(Delay) out with Ethersworn Canonis and Celestial Colonnade. I eventually Slaver locked for some reason... :P

Is it sad that I'm looking forward to people getting all butthurt over this deck making it to the "upcoming" page because of a discussion about Elbrus? :-)

Not at all. The fact is that a deck gets likes mostly from comments. People comment on a deck because something about it interests them. What their comment says means nothing, so long as the person is still interested in visiting the deck to comment...
