Kim Jong Un, Supreme leader of North Korea, has issued the following press statement:
“I have designed and tested a glorious and unstoppable new combo, which the senile judge Sheldon Menery will be helpless to defeat. It is so simple a child could win with it, but so brilliant and intricate that only a living god could bring it to fruition! I have chosen as my commander the legendary [card]Phelddagrif[/card], a true democratic people’s champion. Phelddagrif allows me to assemble a powerful combination of tutors, draw spells, and ramp effects to bring the full and terrible power of my combo to bear!
“Allow me, briefly, to explain its full potential: The heart of the combination is this majestic Korean foil [card]Triskelion[/card], in gem mint condition. See how it catches the light. After the Triskelion has been summoned, I will then cast this Chinese foil [card]Doubling Season[/card]. Also gem mint, and protected by a full three layers of sleeves! The final piece of the combo is this Russian [card]Rite of Passage[/card]. It is not foil, but even now I have a literal army scouring the finest shops in the glorious People’s Republic for a foil one.
“You see, with all these pieces laid out, I have fully assembled a winning position! Very soon I expect to use this devastating combo in a real game, for the highest stakes imaginable! Sheldon, the feckless dotard, might try to stop me with his beloved [card]Krosan Grip[/card], but look!”
At this, The Korean leader turned over his deck to reveal a [card]Privileged Position[/card], altered to show him riding a dragon while laying waste to what appeared to be Wizards of the Coast headquarters. “The incredible power of these cards was immediately evident to me, and when I was able to secure the Russian and Chinese cards from sources which will for now remain anonymous, I knew then that my destiny was before me!”
The EDH rules committee says they have no plans to ban Triskelion, Doubling Season, or Rite of Passage; but reminds players that Commander is a casual format and individual playgroups may ban or unban cards as they wish.
