1-drop EDH deck

Deck Help forum

Posted on Jan. 20, 2014, 9:24 p.m. by tman007

I'm thinking of building an EDH deck with Norin the Wary as general. Here's the catch: I only want 1-drops in the entire deck. No, it won't be an extremely competitive deck, but I don't care. Wahat are some cards to consider. What are some cards to consider?

There are a lot of 1 drop goblins in existence,. They would probably fill up the deck. Goblin Lackey for example.

cr14mson Smith_and_Tonic Thanks for the help! And no, they don't have to be only creatures. That way, I can use things like Lightning Bolt .

nurzaani Thanks for your help. And with the Swamp , I agree but Mountain has so much more synergy with the deck and more combo possibilities. I mean, it combos perfectly with every single card in the deck.

I hate to be the spoil sport but with Norin the Wary as your commander you can't use any of the hybrid mana symbols since his color identity is mono-red.

From the governing body if EDH (found here):

A card's colour identity is its colour plus the colour of any mana symbols in the card's rules text. A card's colour identity is established before the game begins, and cannot be changed by game effects. The Commander's colour identity restricts what cards may appear in the deck.

  • Cards in a deck may not have any colours in their identity which are not shared with the commander of the deck. (The identity of each card in the deck must be a subset of the General's)

  • Lands whose type includes swamp, island, plains, forest and/or mountain (e.g.: basic lands, shocklands, dual lands, Shadowmoor special-basics, etc) DO contain the corresponding mana symbol(s) as per CR 305.6. As such, while they are "colourless" they do have a colour identity and may not appear in a deck unless the Commander is of the appropriate identity.

  • While hybrid mana symbols may be played with either colour mana, they contribute both colours to the card's colour identity. Therefore they may only be played with a commander whose identity includes ALL of the hybrid symbols' colours.

  • Basic land words (swamp, forest, etc) in the text box of a card do NOT represent a coloured mana symbol. They are not restricted to Commander of the same colour identity.

  • Reminder text is not included in the colour identity of a card.

That second one wasn't directed at you. You acknowledge that you knew you had just forgotten. It was directed at the guy who was trying to tell me I was wrong.
