This is why cedh players can get a bad rep 🙄
Anonymous tweet with the quote “I wish instead of ‘game changers’ we had ‘playable in cedh’ so our good cards aren’t always on the f***ing chopping block because of casuals”
000
Zhippy (Ben) @zhippy.bsky.social · 13/02/2025
I dont think theyll end up doing that, id be mostly in favor of it though. What Id hope they do is treat the game changer cards as that pseudo cedh banlist and gear it towards tournament play mainly Bracket 4 could be the “doing casual things w cedh cards” tier, and cedh could have a looser list
010
Zhippy (Ben) @zhippy.bsky.social · 12/02/2025
I wish modern had emergency banned it right away, it didnt feel too strong in cedh but it being so oppressive all summer in modern made everyone hate it It was sooooo much fun

Zhippy (Ben) @zhippy.bsky.social · 12/02/2025
I get people dont like Nadu but man they really get upset when you tell them that at a certain point nadu is deterministic for some reason
110
Zhippy (Ben) @zhippy.bsky.social · 12/02/2025
Thats totally fair. The main thought is with there being a large difference bw 3 and 5 that the game changer list might not be enough. Since cards will impact those two differently, i was trying to think of a way to avoid a “its really fine in cedh but problematic at even 3” or vice versa situation
010
Zhippy (Ben) @zhippy.bsky.social · 12/02/2025
I think that having something directly tied to cedh (being unbanning or banning cards specifically for tournament play). Like game changers 2 almost. Either something like nadu for unbanning or OBM for banning

Zhippy (Ben) @zhippy.bsky.social · 26/01/2025
1 min is what i typically do, big compound lifts like squat or bench press i do 2 min. Ive also done it by heartrate, starting my set whenever it drops below 110 or something like that (havent done that in a while so idk if 110 is the right #)

Zhippy (Ben) @zhippy.bsky.social · 26/01/2025
I’m kinda getting fed up with all the cedh Debbie downers over on Twitter. It’s just endless whining.

Zhippy (Ben) @zhippy.bsky.social · 17/01/2025
Do I play Kenrith or Grixis Pirates this weekend at the KC 1k 🤔 Could also throw together stella for the hell of it
000
Zhippy (Ben) @zhippy.bsky.social · 12/01/2025
Ended top 50 going 2-3-2. Decklist feels pretty good, but tayams problems were evident and i didnt play/mulligan tight enough to overcome them Traded in a haul and got some bling though, id say good weekend overall
000
Zhippy (Ben) @zhippy.bsky.social · 12/01/2025
Thanks man, the tragedy is realizing i had punted r1 and could be 2-2-1 and in good spot (i woulda had different opps probably but either way)
010
Zhippy (Ben) @zhippy.bsky.social · 12/01/2025
My breakers are bad today, even if i go 2-0 its unlikely i make top cut. Considered dropping but im here so gonna push for it all the same, if i bubble i bubble

Zhippy (Ben) @zhippy.bsky.social · 10/01/2025
I’m actually about to play 10 hours of for fun cedh today and I could not be more excited

I keep going back and forth on my deck for the 8k, my friends are trying to convince me to stick with my choice but man is the public perception of it not good, making me doubt it even more

Played Tayam in a small local 8k prep tourney yesterday and made the final 4. The top 10 game might have been my best played game ever where i clawed back the win from 4th seat and used politicks and reserved play to wait for a perfect window. Looks like i got my deck for the 8k

Yeah i could see that too, could make sense in something like a marneus that especially wants to land an early smothering tithe

Zhippy (Ben) @zhippy.bsky.social · 31/12/2024
It could be worth it in decks in Mopal and that have a high density of 3 mana impact cards, problem is that its super dead late game and its only really impactful when you play it t1 and use it t2
110
Zhippy (Ben) @zhippy.bsky.social · 31/12/2024
Not bad when u gotta get a 3 mana commander out on t2 consistently, kinda garbage anywhere else

Zhippy (Ben) @zhippy.bsky.social · 27/12/2024
People not thinking OBM is a bad card for the format is just baffling to me, the only time it hasnt done something toxic to a boardstate is when its being looped w Tayam or HBH

Zhippy (Ben) @zhippy.bsky.social · 20/12/2024
Tayam is some degenerate fun

G3 loss: niv mizzet parun, tnt, yuriko, me River got powerful early and threatened a lot of damage but yuriko was able to politic his way to not dying and ended up w the win

Zhippy (Ben) @zhippy.bsky.social · 14/12/2024
G2 loss: me, magda, jeggy najeela, rogsi Got an early grafdiggers and cursed totem to lock the game down, but magda blew a REB when they did not need to and wouldnt even think abt changing their mind. Rogsi follows w thoracle pact and we lose 0-2
