I’ve noticed that in my playgroup when someone is falling behind in Commander they usually get much, much less heat, to the point that they’re able to ramp their mana and then just win out of nowhere after everyone has depleted their resources etc., so I was wondering if one could actually fake it and if you do do you have any tips for it?
You’re right, very deck-dependent! One of us runs a heavily upgraded Pantlaza precon that’s basically all creatures, and once they managed to win even after three board wipes even though they kept casting ALL creatures they could lol
So, yeah, I can see how overextending after you get to 7 devotion can leave you empty-handed when the wipe comes. Definitely something I’ll keep in mind in future!
