In memory of our staples turning into bookmarks we will be holding a special event….
To send our farewells we will allow the use of the four banned cards (Dockside extortionist, jeweled lotus, mana crypt, Nadu) during our normal friday night commander. This event will NOT count towards the CEDH league. Instead, for each person who pays regular entry ($5) I will match personally for additional prizing for the event. Count it as a little birthday present from me to you 😁
I hope to see you all this Friday and give these fellas a proper goodbye 👋

Wow. This is not what I was expecting to start my Monday. Are people going to be happy? Yes. Are people going to be upset? Yes.
Before I get too far into this post I would like to clarify- this is my opinion and these views will be seen from a CEDH perspective.

Nadu being banned is fine. I’m sure no one really enjoyed watching nadu for 20 minutes to MAYBE win.

Jeweled Lotus being banned is interesting. In all honesty I don’t see this card as a true problem to these ‘faster paced’ games the RC is talking about.

As for my homie Dockside Extortionist being banned I am devastated. When it comes to CEDH dockside is an enabler for a lot of non-meta decks and is an amazing amount of explosive value in seat 3-4. But, dockside also limits deck creativity. There’s plenty of times I chose not to put unique or underplayed artifacts/enchantments because they would ultimately ‘feed’ dockside. Should these self limitations exist to not give value to a little 1/2 goblin or should he be eliminated? It’s hard to say and I can understand why the RC waited so long to ban dockside.

And lastly the all mighty Mana Crypt. I’m on the fence as to whether this is a good or bad ban. The appeal to CEDH when I started was playing absolutely busted cards such as Mana Crypt and Paradox Engine. As time goes on and the experience I’ve gained these few years playing the game I can say Mana Crypt is a busted card lol. I could go into more detail but we would be here for hours maybe even days.

It’s quite sad to see my pretty cards collect dust in a box now after spending hundreds on these collectibles but overall I’m interested to see how format shaping these bans will be.

If you reached the bottom here please tell me how you feel on these bans as well. I want to know how the community feels and I’m excited to see the changes to commander as a whole!

Are you ready for THE team up event of the year for Marvel Crisis Protocol!? We are looking for any 3 person teams wanting to play in an incredible event with tons of prizing!

The event will take place October 12th at 11am and will be $25 per person or $75 per team.

This is an event that will test your innovation and be an absolute blast! Here is how it works.

You and two friends will create three teams that share no characters, non restricted tactics cards, or crisis cards. Teams will roll off for match selection. Then alternating teams will choose which match ups will take place between players starting with the team who wins priority. Then all 3 games are played as normal, the team that wins 2 of the 3 games will be considered the winning team of that round.

Teams will be paired up based on record after round one. The prizing will be from a huge loot table that will be presented to players as the event begins and will be drawn from randomly by player after the event concludes. Prizes will include custom painted models, custom painted movement and range tools, brand new model kits, paint supplies, and more!

The first ever Gamer’s Auction at The Gamer’s Haven was an incredible experience and we learned a lot. The auction began as a thought years ago from the owner Bob Kelley and getting it running was a unique challenge. Once we had the initial bones of the project in place it was time to reach out to the community to announce the project and get all the nuts and bolts tightened up. The response from our players was so positive and came in the form of waves of auction lot submissions as well as excitement for the event. We heard from you, that this was something you really wanted.

We had some fantastic lots come into the auction including full armies, miniature game projects, huge board game lots, and even some fully painted artist quality submissions! This was the backbone of our campaign to generate buzz for the event. We posted the lots and as we found out, the posted lots were a huge part of why people attended the event. We learned that people are coming to the auction specifically for a lot they saw online more so than coming in and hoping for something good. So this is something we plan to double down on in the future. We hope to have tailored blocks containing similar lots at specific time slots to really encourage members of our community by giving them a more precise time frame they can plan to come in for items they really want. If you are one of those players who knew what they were coming to the auction for, be on the lookout for our category blocks in the next auction.

Once the event itself started, there was certainly a level of nerves for myself and I’m sure everyone else involved in the auction. How will this go now that it is truly underway? I am pleased to say that the event experience was an incredible success. In the beginning of the event I let the bidders know (as well as a reminder to myself) that mistakes could very well happen, as this was our first ever auction. I was thankful for Bob’s advice to make that announcement because it reassured me that this was a learning experience and that making the event the best it could be would be a process. With that said the bidding started and although the first lot went by a little faster than expected, we had very few hiccups throughout the event. Selling almost every lot we had and a majority of them for an amount greater than what the owners of the lots had submitted them to be sold for. This to me really solidified the success of the event as a whole.

In the future, I hope the way this initial auction was received will help be a point of promotion for more auctions. I hope that the community will continue to join us and support us through our next several auctions that will likely start to hit the calendars multiple times throughout the next year. The things we have learned will continue to improve the Gamer’s Auctions and The Gamer’s Haven as a community cornerstone business. Thank you again to all of you who joined us for our first ever auction, and I hope we will see you again for the future auctions we host.
