Reply to comment by splbm in TIFU by pushing my Magic: The Gathering Deck too hard at Friday Night Magic. by splbm

I’d say that isn’t power rating 8.

Just because you’re missing a few CEDH staples doesn’t mean it isn’t CEDH. Budget CEDH decks exist that avoid expensive cards (meaning all the mana rocks, most of the lands, and Dockside). You’re definitely CEDH just low tier CEDH. So on the CEDH scale I’d guess your a 5/10. I have a CEDH deck that can win turn one without any of the free mana rocks, any counter spells, or ad naus. It’s a rakdos deck with a singular counter spell that only counters counter spells.

I go off a chart on the Commander Plaza discord server for deckrating (which is where I have had my deck submitted and rated as a power 8 by multiple cEDH players). The lowest rating I’ve gotten is a 7.5 (dude cited no free countermagic, no imperial seal, no duals as to his reason).

Point being that my deck is definitely in high power-cEDH territory. It is just subjective ratings by different people with different mindsets that constitutes their own definitions of deck rating.

If your deck is an 8 none of mine break 6. And if true CEDH players are rating your deck as an 8 then I would guess that makes it a CEDH 8. Which is 10+ on the casual scale

I can message you a copy of the chart if you so desire.
