i'm not huge on EDH, but my understanding is that "fun" commanders draw cards, fetch cards from the library, or reuse stuff from your graveyard

neither drizzt nor bruenor satisfy that requirement, but they could still be all right

drizzt will live for some fun combos that your opponents will never allow to go off. i'd love to execute a one-attack commander damage kill via phyrexian dreadnought

bruenor might be a nice budget equipment commander- competition for that role is already fierce

there are a ton of manlands and just lands with ridiculous abilities on them in standard right now

i know it probably hurts my winrate, but it's gotten to the point where i'm maindecking 3 field of ruin

i've been playing rakdos, so crawling barrens was really the one to force my hand- my main instant speed removal does nothing against it

It's been a while, but i think diamond is the first rank that you actually have to have a positive winrate to climb out of

Iirc, Everything before it gives 2 points for a win and takes 1 point for a loss

Can artifacts be equipped at anytime? I've liked tactical for baiting them to kill things and popping that so their creature dies instead.
normal 'equip' effects (like "equip 2") have the secret rule of being cast at times that sorcery spells can (i.e. slow)

but if there's some any other effect phrased like "2: attach this to target creature", then that can be done at any time an ability can normally be done- essentially at any time/"instant speed"

i can't explain it better than that right now :P

Creating a positive narrative for yourself is super important for feeling good.

people derive self-worth from being good at something. Good at making people laugh, good at creating things, good at telling a story, good at helping people, good at competing, good at attracting. Or from fitting a role well and fitting in. Being a good partner, a good parent, a good son/daughter, a good worker, a good friend, being a good worker are all things that can create a sense of satisfaction.

Nobody's good at everything. But we all pick specific roles to define ourselves by.

If being good at sticking to this regimen is satisfying to you, it sounds like you've found your calling. That's great!

sure, maybe he wasn't the best best quarterback in many particular years, but his consistency over time really speaks for itself

full disclosure, i have a friend that has done serious statistical research/work on all QBs over time with intent to publish. correcting for stadium, offensive line, receivers, strength of opponents, and so on. he really wanted peyton manning to come out on top, but it's just not happening.

if we were just looking at stats from 2010 and before, brady would've been 3rd or 4th best, but his consistency since then has launched him into first
