Femme_Fatale on Small Update: New Formats, New …

1 week ago

A small update today. The two new formats are Dandan and Judge's Tower. The new hub is "Shared Deck".

Both Dandan and Judge's Tower are casual centric formats with no deckbuilding requirements, rules or restrictions. They center their gameplay around all players drawing and playing their cards from a central deck. No other deck is included.

Dandan

Dandan is a 1v1 format spurred on from the card of the same name Dandan. Traditionally the deck's only wincon was Dandan and both players fought to find it first and be the one to control it. In a sense, the spirit of the format is creating new and interesting interactions when there is only one deck and both players are striving for the same win condition(s).

Judge's Tower

Judge's Tower many of you will probably be more familiar with. It is a multiplayer format focused around testing each player's knowledge of the game rules. A player will lose the game if they fail to make a correct play or miss a triggered ability, PROVIDED that another player called them out on their missplay or missed trigger. If they player that did the calling out was themselves wrong, then they lose instead. The cards in a Judge's Tower deck are chosen because they interact with the rules in a unique way or cause the player to be constantly focusing on when they can use an ability. There are various versions of how this works but players typically have infinite life and infinite mana. All cards must be played if able as soon as possible and if you can activate an ability of a card you must do so.

Shared Deck

As for the hub, "Shared Deck" is exactly what both Dandan and Judge's Tower are. However if you want to make one of these decks in a constructed format, the Shared Deck hub will let you label that constructed deck as Dandan or Judge's Tower. This hub will also encompass any future formats that utilize a singular shared deck across all players.

I love the list you have going here! It makes me so happy you have Marjhan and Dandan :)

It is not a good card by any stretch but Devouring Deep might fit in here too, if you are looking for any more old-school fish :D

I've always loved the picture for the card Dandan. Even though it was always a shyt card, it often found its way into my blue decks back when I was a teenager (ah, the glory days of Chronicles; yes, I am too young for Arabian Knights, though just barely). Just the idea of a big ass fish - not a shark, not a Leviathan, just a school bus sized Koi fish - getting ready to wreck a couple rowboats. I don't know, it appealed to me.

Anyway, I was ninja'd while reminiscing. Do above. Also, though, why's there no code for a fourth chapter in a saga? Whatever...

Would ouphes be a good fit here? While most creatures from the tribe seem to be hard to pronounce, I think Niall Silvain might be especially comfortable here :)

Have you also considered Ulasht, the Hate Seed, Gnathosaur, Vizzerdrix, Delraich, Xantcha, Sleeper Agent, and Dandan?

Atogatog , while maybe not the most difficult to pronounce card, could also give you all five colors if you ran it as a commander.

Ovalchase Dragster, Illusory Ambusher, Frost Walker, and Dandan seem good for cheap beaters. I would definitely lean hard into doing more damage, otherwise, you're just building a bad Edric, Spymaster of Trest deck.

First off, I hate to say it, but Dandan is not Pauper legal. Don't trust Tappedout, it doesn't work. I advise that you use Scryfall. Also, I recommend you use Spreading Seas over Sea's Claim due to the cantripping. Also, IDK if you're on a budget, but Preordain, Ponder, and Brainstorm all blow Opt out of the water, although Brainstorm is best if you have shuffle effects.
