Just the mill and cards you think will be of use.

Welcome to mtgvault

I've just added you to my list of new/active users.
https://www.mtgvault.com/wickeddarkman/decks/surveillance-list/

I've used it to collect a list of good users in mtgvault, who makes a real effort to use tags, deckdescriptions and in some cases does something for our community.

You might not be in their class yet, but I'll contact you if I want you on the list, because I also track if people are improving.

Here are some links that might help you improve...

Hello there, I've added you to my archive of users who are either new, or have been dormant for a while.

I use that archive to keep track of potential offenders, and have collected data for at least three months, so it's not based on you, as I'm basically tracking everyone.

I have also collected a list of the best users in mtgvault, who makes a real effort to use tags, deckdescriptions and in some cases does something for our community.

I'll contact you if I want you on the list.

I get the picture now.
Thank you.

Yeah, I'm also sleepy today.
It's not necessary to rush it.
But planning ahead, artifact, black and blue will be the primary parts of the deck.

There is one card that you should get 3 of immediately.
[[Mind drain]] while it only mills a few cards it gains you life, and it disrupts ramp and combo.

Treat me like a simpleton :)
Why exactly is korvold ridiculous?
Is it a great card, and if so, why?
Is it the worst card, and if so, why?
And out of 99 cards, which of them makes korvold the shit (in any direction)

Create a deck where you list your cards, then make it public, then I'll copy it and tell you to make it unpublic so it won't be an eyesore :)

With my background in mill I'll generate a historical mill list for you.

You can reward me by doing a co-op on mill.
Or running an experiment on sparky.
I think people do not appreciate the value of sparky.
It's the best tool for analysing how the algorithms on the manabase are working.

It won't have to be now, but I think a sparky vs mill could be fun.
It does have some aggressive decks and first you could play against it with 60 basic lands and note down which turn it kills with its various decks. Then when the most aggressive one is found you start building a mill deck to take it out without removal and blockers other than actual mill cards.

Sparky will never hate you or stall you, making it an actual ally when testing out comboish decks.
The number of games you can run with sparky will probably be so much faster than testing in the wild.

Do a sparky vs mill when you got the time :)

Cgb had some early videos where sparky wasted him, and he has admitted at one point that he uses it to check the manabase of submitted fan decks.

One day sparky will be much more formidable, but it's still a neat tool.

Don't forget to add proper description...

No big deal :)
It's all an artificial bouble after all.
I pour work into it, giving it a form of value.
I attach the bouble psychologically to someone I consider valuable to bring it more value.
Then at some point the value of the being inside the bouble will make people work hard, and by hardening the price
I suddenly have a workforce.

It's basically the same mechanisms that money uses.

The "like" economy bursted in here, so I'm basically introducing a new economy in here, and as long as noone offers an alternative I'll end up "owning" the place. The early people to join in on the concept will be medium "rich" in this economy, provided they start to realise what's it's really about.

I guess you could call it a "link" economy.

The hard work I pour into a number of help pages becomes a sort of stored energy, and I get to harvest upon that energy everytime I link to it because that link will be of value to someone.

Links therefore become currency, and as soon as people start to realise that linking my work is easy, but doing so will
Make themselves valuable, they will start to link and be able to cash in on my work.

From there on, links will create a hierarchy of attaching links to the highest quality posts ...

Welcome/welcome back after 1 year of hibernation
I left you a comment in your RW equipmentdeck that you might not have seen back then.

Here are some other links that might help you improve your public decks...

Anyways, it seems like people are too shy to give you feedback.
You did get some likes, but this time you'd probably rather wanted some feedback.

The day I discover the perfect formula for getting answers to questions, I'll give you let you know :)

But I do suspect that telling people you'll do something for them, no strings attached is likely to work as part of the strategy. I've collected 15 good users on my list.

So, one thing you could do, is to look at what those 14 others seem to have in common, or ask them directly, then figure out something they all want to follow and then ask them if they want to influence your work somehow.

Usually it is extremely hard to get people to work on the same thing unless their reward is much larger than your reward and it's very plain to see.

And in a pinch swansong can counter your own stuff to produce a 2/2 on your side.

You rewrote part of your post that contained your region of play.
I don't think people will shun you from playing in that sort of country.
On the contrary I think it offers another view on the game.

I myself is someone with asperger's syndrome and that makes me sort of a type that seems naive but has a lot of paranoid backup systems to deal with the world.

I deal a lot with human behaviour as part of my paranoia, so I will be able to teach you aspects of the game that you might find very useful at your residency, like this article:
https://www.mtgvault.com/wickeddarkman/decks/deckbuilding-and-storytelling/

If your area deviates in the meta from most of the world you will learn why from the article.
I'll simplify it if you need me to, as I almost always assume that others have the same background knowledge as me. It's one of the aspects of my syndrome.

Almost all of my new decks are being ordered in a personal network of pages, and I've got a lot to say, so don't get overwhelmed.

I'm not an expert on commander, but I got a list of good users in here, and a couple of those play EDH.
In general be carefull about this site, theres a lot of misinformation spread out by trolls.

I think you've shown willingness enough to work on the descriptions to be on the list.
I'll add you now.
Feel free to contact anyone of the others at your leisure.

Hmm.
You should watch covertgoblue (call him cgb) on youtube.
He's posting a video everyday.
Part of the trick is that he records more material on some key days to divide into the days, and he even has an emergency stash if there's problems with the server.

He also has a number of other people who he watches frequently because they are up to date
And he uses his fanbase to pick new decks.

He also don't mind sharing details about how he works, so he should be really valuable to you if you want to learn extra tricks.

It's very impressive how he's been posting more than 900 videos without a halt, and I'm considering to try to post a deck each day in here, so I'm keeping an eye on him.

You will also learn how he deals with haters and voice control and a ton of play psychology.

Did you get around to read this article:
https://www.mtgvault.com/wickeddarkman/decks/deckbuilding-and-storytelling/

Is pretty relevant to your project...

Just saw a deck by isacfish running both phyrexian unlife and death's shadow, and come to think about it, that might be exactly what you need.

A mardu variant of scourge might be the right way.

Angel's grace might be usefull too.

I think he might be working on an adnauseam death's shadow variant, but he's a bit too random about it so far
