Do people actually like commander? (sh.itjust.works)

Like it's the most annoying format every where 2 year olds always complain about your deck and don't actually want you to win but just shuffle cards around for no reason and if you ever win they all just complain that you are playing a good deck (which is the entire point of the game), because all the annoying salty people don't let others play what they want there is no interaction and the boards just fill up with 90 creatures and stupid 5 card combos that shouldn't be playable and it's a huge mess where no one even understands what's going on, like how is this the most popular mtg format

It's great fun... as long as everyone playing has agreed on what 'fun' is.

It sounds like you're playing with the wrong group of people.

Everyone I've played with plays stupid decks that need a million mana to function and when I destroy their gredy manabase with no basics they cry like a 3 year old instead of just playing counter spells or somerthing

If everywhere you go smells like shit, maybe you're the one smelling like shit.

If everyone group you play with has problems, maybe you're the problem.

It's only the commander players that suck. Players who play real formats don't have the same problems

Seems like it would be more productive to play with people who like the kinds of games you do, instead of crying about it like a three year old.
Really, I just agree with the person you replied to. If the people in the pod are looking for vastly different experiences, who's benefiting?
