EDH Basic Rules

[Amaterasu_]

EDIT: A question about attacking. Can you share attackers between left and right uneven. I mean can you attack with one ninja to your right and then attack with two big teams to the left?

By the way, would it be fun if you got all possible generals to pick from that you randomly choose from every possible one. I mean that you will do deck designated for one general but before game it just might be some other general. This random way to play is just for fun ofc. Have you thought that certain amount of squads should be able to bring into this format?

Yeah, you can split your attacks.
Although you'd have to worry about tons of jutsu coming from both sides lol

We haven't still tried this format but probably will soon enough. I have some questions that are pretty basic stuff.

1) Is there just standard reinforcement deck for players with squads (1 card here too)?

2) What does this highlander format achieve with commanders at best? I mean why do you consider this to be better format than regular highlander?

3) Players can play jutsus only to the battle they are participating where have their ninjas battling?

4) How about banned cards? Does bannings effect to EDH? This is probably answered clearly somewhere.

5) Which platoons to do you propose first if we try to balance them between different classes?

What I am planning to do is to create an epic, loosely storyline based, EDH adventure for my friends. Four decks, four commanders and different themes such as:

1: The Will of Fire. Theme: Leaf ninjas (jiraiya, kakashi, naruto, toads) Lightning/Fire.
2: It Came from the Desert. Theme: Sand ninjas + leaf allies (gaara, puppets, huygas) Wind/Earth
3: A Mysterious Organisation. Theme: Akatsuki (akatsuki rogue ninjas like itachi, deidara, Kakuzu and some void stuff) Fire/Earth since there are no void platoons.
4: A Cunning Snake: Sand village and villains (Orochimaru, zabuza, four sand ninjas, Sasuke) Water/Fire (mostly water)

So 1-2 are "good guys" and 3-4 are bad guys. I don't know commanders yet and one theme deck might be kunoichi wind/earth if some of these fails. I am probably going with these platoons first: Kakashi/Might Guy , Temari/Kankuro , Itachi Uchiha & Deidara and finally Sasuke Uchiha & Orochimaru .

I think the last platoon is too powerful and first one is weak but other stuff might upgrade it. I might still try something like this as a setup. What do you guys think? My intentions is to use one character only in one deck so there will be only three different sasukes in all decks etc.

We tried this EDH format couple weeks ago and it was a disappointment. The game didn't work too well three way. We felt that game wasn't interactive enough and it was just basically waiting for your broken mechanics and camping in your village.

I have one question about the rules. If your commander goes to bottom of the deck or somehow else is removed from the play does it go back to RFG area like it was killed?

This idea looked fantastic until I realized there is no platoon with my favorite character in/on it.

It does. There is so little Aburame merchandise outside of the card game. A couple of action figures, one keychain that I have found. I'm honestly surprised that he got a super rare card.

There needs to be a Shino/Kiba, Shino/Hinata or even a Shino/Gen platoon.

Cool I love EDH in magic its basically all I play these days and I always thought that it would be perfect for naruto since most decks tend to rotate around a hand full of ninjas.

I think I may try to build a Rock Lee & Tortoise Deck .
