EDH Takes

Get yourself a drink and settle in for a good ol time. In today's episode, the boys are joined by GEDH founder, Garrett, to discuss this month's drama on Magic twitter. Let's get RIIIIIGHT into the news!

After a year of episodes, we finally reveal the secret recipe we use to make our EDH decks. Well, sort of. In today's episode of EDHTakes, we discuss a process for constructing a commander deck by asking a series of questions about what you want out of the game.

Hey hey!! We're back with a new, good vibes only episode of EDHTakes! In today's episode, we wanted to share our favorite things in the EDH format, be that cards, strategies, or cool interactions.

We can be pretty negative here on EDHTakes. Downright disparaging at times. While it is not often we wholeheartedly agree with the mainstream magic content creators, I say it is time we give credit where credit is due. On today’s episode of EDHTakes, we’re turning over a new leaf, and starting off the year with some positivity. Let’s discuss some takes we dig.

Here we are! The EDHTakes series finale! Lol just kidding. In the year's final episode, Spencer and Elijah return to their roots; Boros. How have the cards from 2021 affected the power of Boros decks in EDH, and how has community perception of the color combination changed since the "Boros Renaissance?"

With Christmas around the corner, many people feel that magical sense of crippling financial burden. So in the spirit of the holidays, Spencer and Elijah discuss the financial side of EDH. Is the format accessible? Are proxy cards ok? And what can we do to lighten the load?

It is the Thanksgiving special! Time to give thanks and be lazy. In this episode, Spencer and Elijah take a note from other shows short on ideas and celebrate the season with a clipshow style episode(without the clips). This series retrospective allows the guys to look back on the bountiful first year of content, and give thanks for all the growth the channel has experienced. Thank you all so much for listening, and for your continued support. ❤

Us Magic players are afforded many opportunities to be disappointed. Maybe you open straight trash in your booster box. Maybe you just can't manage to draw your 3rd land when you're running 38. Maybe you expect EDHTakes to upload a video in the 1st half of the month. So what is at the root of all disappointment? Expectations. In today's episode, Spencer and Elijah discuss various expectations EDH players might have about the game, as well as Elijah's disappointment at the new Innistrad: Crimson Vow set.

"Reading the card explains the card!" Oh if only that were the case. In this Halloween special episode of EDHTakes, Spencer and Elijah discuss the many instances in EDH when cards and the rules aren't always as simple as they seem.

There are a few rules mistakes in this episode, but that just makes it more spooky. Can you find them?

"That deck is not a 7!" No matter how well intentioned discussions of deck power level may be, arguments and misunderstandings are still bound to occur. Many commander players are coming to the realization that a 1-10 scale of power is far from perfect. But is there a better way? In today's episode, Spencer and Elijah discuss what other creators had to say on the matter, and whether we would be better off without any power rankings at all.
