Do any of you still remember the goold old Duel Decks? It was a series of theme decks, each pack containing two decks ready to be played against another. Some were driven by the lore and lots of flavor like Garruk vs. Liliana, and others.. not so much. One of those themes was Speed vs. Cunning, a theme receiving so much praise laughter back then, I still remember it to this day for some reason. But at least that theme was good for something: It inspired this challenge! Click here to receive a random list of three character traits. Pick one of them – and then design a deck fitting your chosen word! Please note your original traits (as usual) and let us know which one you picked – maybe in a seperate spoiler though so people can try to figure it out by themselves? No restrictions of the formats you're allowed to use.  |
(Commander)
{Comments}My traits were reckless, nurturing and manipulative. I went with nurturing for yet another selesnya creatures commander deck. |
|   |
(Pauper Commander)
{Comments}Imma just stick the traits here for now:
dependable, unkind and spontaneous.
Going with spontaneous: with this Pauper Commander deck you are supposed to dump your cheap or madness-filled hand constantly and then replenish it with hopefully 3 new cards using Amber's attack trigger. The background is to help Amber survive her attacks and make her hit even harder. |

As mentioned with two decks in the previous poll: Me neither. Since I'm asked to log into my account, I assume the decklists are set to private (since that's how it works on the deck hosting site I'm using)..

Edit: Actually I think scryfall is just not great and it forces you to log in no matter what. In future challenges I'll use a different website. |

I don't think it's about logging in or not as I just tried it while signed in and got redirected to my account page instead of the deck - it might be an account specific issue worth contacting the devs about? ?(I don't recall Scryfall having a dedicated public/private deck setting.) Just to check, can anyone see this deck? |

ZephyrPhantom: 60 Plains? Sure. Nice test. Mebbe it only works because it's only basic lands. It might be a better fail test to include other types of cards.

I also shared a deck via scrfall the last time I entered one of these and no one complained. emberfire17 If you look at the URL of the link, it doesn't start with scryfall but looks like it's provided by some other page. Also it sais at one point scryfall.com/signin when I copy the URL of one of my decks it looks completely differrent. |

Not to be rude, but you could've saved us a little bit of time by providing a deck yourself to test that theory. I also shared a deck via scrfall the last time I entered one of these and no one complained. emberfire17 If you look at the URL of the link, it doesn't start with scryfall but looks like it's provided by some other page. Also it sais at one point scryfall.com/signin when I copy the URL of one of my decks it looks completely differrent. This is a really good point, actually, the deck featured in the poll is linked as https://scryfall.com/signin?return_path=%2F%40EmberFire17%2Fdecks%2Fb019d8ca-f35f-4c07-91b7-930a8f17cfed%2Fbuild&status=303Whereas a regular scryfall link looks like: https://scryfall.com/@Flo00/decks/aa8a9b6b-b9d0-46e1-b914-057cafb26926(This is the link that usually shows up in the address bar when you're viewing a Scryfall deck page) So the correct link should look something like: https://scryfall.com/@EmberFire17/decks/b019d8ca-f35f-4c07-91b7-930a8f17cfed (surrounded by %2Fs) And here's the deck, as predicted. I've updated the poll with this link in the interest of letting people see it asap. (Broken link is still featured in this post for reference.)emberfire17 - How have you been getting your Scryfall deck links? I've tried copying links from every deck button possible (little side menu when searching, the "view deck" button on the decks page of my profile, and from the address bar when viewing the deck), and I've only gotten the "regular" link. |

sorry everyone I'm not sure how I ended up with a messed up link, thanks for figuring it out.
