Let me remind you: Goad says, โ€œuntil your next turn.โ€ If youโ€™re playing a deck with blue doing goad stuff, donโ€™t sleep on Chronatog Totem as a mana rock. You can catch some players in a real bind by unexpectedly skipping your turn and keeping things goaded another round.

The year is 2024. I remain naively excited about cEDH as a format, but lack the time to mine into the 3000 cards released in the last 2 months. I sit in dread as my opponent reveals their textless Napoleon Dynamite as commander. What does it do? We offer cuts. Their deck is cake.

Some commander players are absolute loose canons. Throwing damage and removal around for unpredictable reasons. Itโ€™s terrifying to play against. Theyโ€™re scary, but that doesnโ€™t mean they win a lot. They just cause a ton of collateral damage while they lose. Terrifying.
