Surprise +1. It's the point of having a secret card, not having it open over and over again. To me, it's a fundamental thing to choose when I use this Noble-Joker. Making it a repeatable trick is a bad thing IMO, because it leads to decks everyone is playing because of this effect of the cards outside the game. They may not be the best decks, but surely more cards with those effect will come since commander is a cool official format (now).

And less diversity in the Noble Cards is pretty much the opposite of what we tried to do with the format - giving unusual cards their ensured spotlight.

I personally would have thought that Serf would be a better name, as it is still a low class, and doesn't have any implications of wealth or status. But names aside, I think this sounds like a very interesting format- I hate losing simply because I'm the one guy that can't afford playsets of shocklands. Also, just affirming something: Planeswalkers can be Nobles, right? And the way you phrased the deck construction made it sound like nonbasic lands are a no-go, so no cloudpost silliness?

Just pointing this out but I think a few banned cards you missed: Mana Drain , Chaos Orb , and Shahrazad .

Nixnax101: Of cause you can play Planeswalkers as Nobles. Also, you can play as much common nonbasics as you like according to normal deckbuilding rules.

I built a Steel Overseer Noble deck; not terribly expensive, about 30$ at average price range. Link dump here- http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/steel-overseer-noble/

@Crivaro: Thank you for that help, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't breaking any rules before I spread it to friends.

wow great to see people still commenting on this. If the dev team is still listening in, I'm still interested in building some kind of a deckbuilding queue on the main site, but Yeago never ended up getting back to me about the TO API. If anyone can get a hold of him please send me an email (yall know what it is) as I would love to integrate that feature!!

The moment you said $500 for a deck was ridiculous, you lost all credibility. If you're only spending 500 on a deck that wins, you got lucky.

How come you have 2 rares, you have Gideon's Avenger and Loxodon Warhammer

Nevermind.

Will Waste Not be banned when M15 is released?

@ DeathGamer: definitely not. It's a cool card and I don't think it will be too broken.

Check out my deck, Elves of the Elderscale, please? It says almost everything is illegal, but none of the cards I'm using are on the Banned List.

Check out my wither noble Ashes to Ashes . It is very cheap to build and very aggressive. I hope you like it.

Check out my wither noble Asche zu Asche. It is very cheap to build and very aggressive. I hope you like it.

i prefer this to pauper

Also Battle of Wits should be banned. It's a guaranteed turn 5 win and can be sooner with the addition of mana dorks and other ramping.

Here is my first noble deck Noble Life Gain. Please check it out and give me suggestions.

Wow, I'm amazed that people are still commenting on this thread - so happy that I could be a part of this!

To graft and the others who worked on the site together - I am currently working for a CMS company which is offering free websites. If you are interested we could migrate to the platform, you would no longer have to pay the $5 per month for noblemtg.com currently (though you would still have to pay for domain registration), and there are additional features in the software which make the creation of websites easy.

If you would like to try it out I can probably accomplish the migration in a couple of days, then we can basically just go nuts on it implementing features which we were interested in but never got around to due to time constraints, school etc...

If you are interested in that or any other aspect of the noblemtg site, including further improvements to it without moving the hosting, shoot me an email. You should still have my email, but that account is flooded with spam. Please contact me at [email protected], where my fname and lname have not changed from the ncf account.

Hey guys. I LOVE this format! I think it will become my new favorite format. This is the first deck that i built in Noble : Noble Reaper, deathtouching your soul.

Take a look if you have time, I will probably do many new decks with the next booster box I'll open.

Hit 'em hard, Hit 'em fast

Are cards like Cloudpost banned? Posts are pretty dang poweful, tbh and you could see someone building around the without much difficulty, as Glimmerpost is common too.

ctrlaltelite apparently not, so feel free to try breaking the format with them

shinobigarth Will do! :D

Awesome guys. Love this.

ctrlaltelite, when i saw your comment and I take it like a challenge. It end on with this : 12-Noble-post.
