Video

This is the first vídeo I watched on your channel and it was awesome! I only saw you on edhrec cast ou other shows. Hopefully you make more vídeos like this! I love horror and sci fi movies and I try to catch references in everything as well. Awesome content, thank you! 😊😊

Great idea and video <3

I'm sooooo hyped for Duskmourn. It's been the only set I've actually been looking forward to this year. Also OG Toby Maguire spiderman is best spiderman

Dropping a video after a literal year? Based.

Such a fantastic watch! Love the magic cards popping up on screen with each reference. I feel like the Hellraiser franchise would be another great one to pull into the MtG world in your series Chase. Keep being awesome!

Hey! Seems like you disappeared there for awhile! Glad to hear from ya I was beginning to wonder

Love this as a series idea. As someone who didn't really start watching horror until recently, I watched the evil dead like a year ago and yeah, as you said-- the special effects are 'interesting' It does look like they used a lot of milk.

listening to Chase nerd out about Evil Dead is something I didn’t know I needed.

lmao, I don't like horror movies at all, I have never seen this one, but here I am, perfectly happy to sit here for half an hour and listen to you talk about it because you make it so entertaining. That really is a special skill!

This was seriously awesome!! I can't wait to see what other ones you do, it's always great hearing you gush about horror flicks.

Yes I can't wait for more of this series !!! Exactly with duskmourn coming so soon.

Great to see more stuff from ya Chase! If you don't mind me asking what happened to Bad At Magic?

People also dont want to get targeted by the table after talking about there deck 😅

Too many people at my local LGS runs combos 😂 so i found a budget mono blue azami infinity mana , card draw and toturs 😂

Best combos are the ones where each card on its own is good and synergistic with the rest of the deck and played on its own gives decent value and support to your playstyle.

Seems decent for a Boros aura strategy, but I don’t know if I’d drop the old Feather that I’m currently trying to build for this version, especially considering I already have an aura centric deck. Cool piece for the 99 for Feather the Redeemed maybe though.

It’s crazy I haven’t played mtg since I was literally in the middle school and I used to love the game and I was scrolling through CZcams shorts found you and I watched some of your vids makes me wanna play again

Mirko is amazing I love reanimater also comes with rise of the dark realms it's so good!!!

Everyone should run some method of ending the game in one turn in every deck because nobody wants to be the person who got focused out of the game early and has to sit and watch for 4 hours while it limps on. It's respectful to run a combo or two to close things out when someone has been pushed out or the game has gone on a bit long. Shuffling up and playing again is better then one endless boring game anyway 😕 also if you build to 1v1 people out with creature beats you're a monster lol.

Nah ichormoon gauntlet is meant to take infinite extra turns.

coercive recruiter can't work with Obeka's ability because of "UNTIL" end of turn

I think Feather is a great commander for a deck that puts goad auras on creatures. Trying her in the 99 of my new Aurelia deck

Feather, Radiant Arbiter and Reality Scramble? Mulligan your board into better cards :D

Dont be surprised guys, im just stating that she has a cute face, if she wasnt a whale she could probably live off only fans

If you lose weight you would be a solid 9

I started with a human precon 3 years ago that i keep upgrading. Now i have replaced half the cards and still keep trying new things. I guess i could build 2 decks now if i another commander😂

Blue and spellslinger is the only way I play lol.

I don't know if this will get a response but is this list available somewhere? I just found this commander and thought your list was fun and interesting!

I fell in love with this show!! When are you coming back??

I have a couple thoughts on this topic: Bringing a combo deck to the table - bottom line its a Rule 0 conversation and making sure everyone is peachy with that The lamenting of commander being or becoming a combo format - i am having a hard time seeing that personally. We all have our own experiences with the game so I don't wish to knock that, and if that is something you are seeing in your playgroup that is perfectly valid and understandable. In my playgroup the combat step is just thriving and living its best life! I would like to echo something EK said in the episode "games have to end" so I think there is always a function and place for combos, and they can certainly act as your primary, secondary, or other win conditions for your deck.

Thanks for watching and listening this week, y'all!

"Competitive table"- tutor for combos Casual edh- tutor for answers based on board state

Andy like in Woody and Buzz?? lol

First time watching the show, came up in my feed and the subject caught my eye; I have been having this discussion (quite unsuccessfully) on the EDH subreddit for a while now, actually. My personal limitation when deckbuilding is "2-card combos (not counting your commander) which win the game on your current turn with no additional cards or effects required regardless of mana cost". It's a bit wordy, but it needed to be specific enough to counter edge cases. So, obviously ThOracle and Kiki combos are a no-go, but also any 2-mana infinite +outlet Commander. I also try to avoid tutors in the command zone as this makes even less wieldy 4+ card combos easier to achieve. The basic premise is much like you stated; you could be at 2 life, been getting smashed the entire game and have no board state whatsoever, but sandbagged long enough to naturally draw into the specific two cards that auto win the game and if no one has Force of Will in hand, they have no real opportunity to respond because the presumptions of a 'casual' game did not include the need to have instant-speed removal at all times, nor are casual decks built to this requirement. It invalidates the entire game up to that point and generally requires no setup or board presence to pull these combos off; while a Craterhoof or even a Cyclonic Rift can allow an easy opening for a win, you still have to have a board state to capitalize on those cards - this is not so with 2-card wincons, and at least requiring at minimum three cards means that the process of finding these cards naturally will take more effort. As you said with the 'Rube Goldberg' example, no one ever gets upset when you manage to assemble 'Exodia' because you had to find and deploy enough cards that it felt like an actual achievement - finding 2 cards isn't an achievement, it is an eventuality.

I think commander, as a format generally speaking kinda ruined magic as a game. The reason I think this is because magic, as a game is just an anything goes game. Also, they're so many cheap, easy ways to interact with combos, which is one reason I don't understand why a vast majority of casual players complain when the answer cards are easy to obtain and cost effective price wise.

I swear every time I have an issue at my LGS, your show talks about it. I played a game in which one of my opponents won turn 4 through a combo. Still on the fence on whether that counts as a casual deck or not

completely fine to have combos in casual. really just depends on how fast and consistent you can pull it off. if it's difficult to pull off i'm all for it.

I've come to realize that my Dina, Soul Steeper deck isn't exactly casual anymore because it has so many combos in it. Meanwhile my Ezuri Claw of Progress is probably actually pretty casual because it mostly just makes a big creature or two and then eats a boardwipe and struggles to rebuild, even though I have Shrieking Drake + Aluren to make infinite Experience counters

"crime in his hands" feels like a sticker

Man, first talking about chicken nuggies, then the appetizer sampler and mozzie sticks? Making me hungry for terrible fried things I love

Mmm I would like to be paid in chicken nuggets For maybe like an hour

Lutri is a 9th or 10th free card. it can also be a 3 mana draw a card for force of will. I think both of your takes on Lutri are overly optimistic / naive the RC made the right choice.

Pay for Rhystic or Tithe, why not both? Honestly what i have found is that the when one player have a rhystic and another has a tithe the one with the tithe is heavily advantaged. I would usually rather have an suedo omniscience for four mana then draw a card whenever a player casts a spell.

"Less tutors, more draw" would fit fine! Or "-tutors, +draw"

For me, I am fine, when I sit down and know OK this dude likes to play decks close to cedh and there are most likely combos in it. If I play casual battle cruisery I usually think infinits or thasa wins are kinda boring, like when somebody comes at me with helios and that 1 damage one counter engine thing.... Maeh... Doesn't feel creative, doesn't feel any special, won't be a game I remember in a good way, even if the game was fun itself until this point. But that's allways the problem kind of. So we have 2 to 3 powerlevels at my lgs maybe 4. So we have random unfinished deck that sometimes does cool stuff or slips under the radar, because it's not a broken value engine. Than casual what is like a normal deck where you can expect anything from a 30 to 4 hour game. Than high power where you see all the broken stuff(combos thasa, very hard ramp, stax etc.) , but people tend to say that's not cedh that's just high power and than cedh (but I never played at that pod by now since I don't run like 30 interaction cards). Yaeh so difficult but for me I would rather play without Infinit combos. 🤔

I 100% thought of Tymna-Thrasios when it came to the least favorite commander thing. 😅 Also, I would 100% never play a Planeswalker ever again to gain the choice *not* to play green. Of my five favorite color combinations, green is in none of them.

White has best removal, best Board wipes, good recursion of any permanent type, stax pieces and now great card draw, ramp options or just making sure you hit your landdrops consistently oh and lifegain, best protection, tokens, big angels, or big angel tokens. I don't know if and why people still say white is bad 🤔

No clue what the audio did around 3:13 but that woke me up! The tough question for me would be one bling deck / many decks but are just HP, and I would have to go with the one bling deck. I think I would find the most joy out of that.

I love theme decks more than tribal decks, one can get into some real deep-cut stuff with theme decks. I have a Retro Frames / black boarder Ashnod the Uncaring deck that started off as the pre-con and became the crazy deck I have now. The same deck also has an infinite combo in it, I'm really interested in exploring the discussion on infinite combos more. I also had a combo breaker in the same deck for awhile but later took the Jester's cap out because if no one is running combo , it can end up being a somewhat dead card in the deck unless I decide to just start taking 6 cards out of a deck a turn. I think the salt levels would get to high if I deck though lol Great pod cast , keep up the good work !

Otters are evil, don't let those faces fool you
