Underrated EDH Cards
Commander (EDH) forum

I know this topic has been beaten to death and back again, but I recently stumbled across some very underrated cards: The Dreams cycle, from Torment. Each card besides one has less then 1,000 decks on EDHrec, and while some of the cycle are meta-specific, a couple of them should be staples. Like Nostalgic Dreams, a two-mana scaleable Regrowth, getting back all your best cards while discarding all your worst, or Turbulent Dreams, a 2 mana board wipe in any deck that draws a lot of cards, like Kruphix, God of Horizons, The Locust God, both of which are very popular generals. Or what about Insidious Dreams, while even though it has 1.7 thousand decks, should be a black staple? Do you have any underrated cards in EDH? Personally, underrated means, at least to me, having less then 1,000 decks on EDHrec. Thanks!

I plan on using her in the 99. With enough lifegain or opponent slapping, she's just an alpha strike piece.
Clunky, but dank my dudes. And it really don't matter when the deck you slappin her in is all about infinite mana :)

People always play Exploration but always forget about Skyshroud Ranger, Sakura-Tribe Scout, and Llanowar Scout.
False Prophet is a super political boardwipe. If people aren't swinging at you, theire helping you win. If they're attacking you, block with this.
Ashes to Ashes is very nice
Quicksilver Fountain ROCKS in mono blue
Spy Network gives you an insane amount of info, same with Telepathy
Daring Apprentice is very nice to just have out.

Hey Snap157, great suggestions! I've never heard of Spy Network, but it seems amazing. I also love Telepathy, I used to run it in Modern, but it's also great in decks like Baral, Chief of Compliance or Talrand, Sky Summoner. Thanks for sharing!

I've always used Rootborn Defenses Instant indestructible for your board, for 3 cmc, plus a populate trigger for those who use tokens?
