This is just from my experience, especially with a regular play group, but holding back a little bit or making the occasional sub optimal play and just letting the other players have their fun is the easiest way to make Selvala fairer. Just because you have the mana to do something, doesn't mean you have to do it. This gives the ability for any of my things to be answered. For this I have removed all of my haste enablers except ], that card is just too funny. Occasionally I just like exploding into a daunting field and watching it all burn away as the game becomes a temporary arch enemy, or I usually just get taken out. I may be alone in this, but I don't always care about winning. Give your opponents a chance to respond to your field. Or look at alternate wins cons like ], ], milling opponents with ] or have fun and animate lands. Selvala has the versatility of going wide or tall or both and completely overrunning with combat.

Some tips I recommend to keep the deck fairer:Īvoid things like ], ], ], ], ] and other effects that lets you bounce your permanents or untap Selvala more than once in a turn.

If you build to Selvala's strengths, aka mana production, even without going infinite you will be prone to very explosive turns. I can tell you breaking her is easy, playing her fairly takes more work. I have run Selvala for almost 2 years as my main EDH general, through many iterations of the deck from cut throat competitive to hydra tribal to its current green good stuff with a big stompy creature sub theme.
