      @@originalusername295 Urza, Godo and Yisan are all mono coloured decks. There are also decks that would do well at a lower power table such as Heliod and Yawgmoth. It's true that multi-coloured commanders can be stronger than these guys, but they aren't pushovers and would be happy to go first for free every game.

    Beezy missed a purporos trigger 55 mins in from the assassin token, and during the final turn he could have just activated Purporos 3x to get the +3+0 needed to get the kill - but I may be wrong on these events

    • @NitpickingNerds

      I think the Purphoros got baby rifted the turn before and it wasn't shown being recast. They only showed Beezy casting felidar retreat, but he had 8 tapped lands (I'm guessing for Purphoros and retreat)

    Going first minigame - Titan Roulette:
    Shuffle a Grave Titan and 19 basics into a pile.
    Each person reveals the top card. If you flip a Grave Titan, you lose, everyone else keeps revealing cards.
    Last man standing goes first. In the case of a tie, you shuffle the remaining cards and keep going.
    If 2 or more players have Grave Titan as the very last card, everyone is a loser and the episode ends.

    I would love to see a debriefing at the end of the videos (or separate videos) where you discuss how your decks performed and how you view some of the cards (e.g., that card worked better than I though, I had this wasted card in my hand).

    Damn that was a game. Definitely did not and the way I was expecting it to. I think this is a good example of what happens when everybody is playing at a similar power level. These decks were loaded with combos, and it basically came down to a combat damage slog lol

    As a non-commander player, watching the bant deck was everything I love in magic and now I know why decks like Chulane would be absolutely miserable to play against. Roon was bad enough haha, which sucks cuz I’m sure it’s so fun to play, especially with counters.

      I knowwww! Good showing from the deck either way, as far as I'm concerned I achieved personal victory as soon as I transformed Path of Mettle
