That transition from Dylan there was 🔥
Lol thank you
Lol you beat me to it! I was gonna say I forgive you for being a villain since you have such sick editing skills.
literally just said the same thing
Came here to say the same thing! Absolutely perfect!
Came for the same thing, but a week late lmao
My favorite channel!!
The dryad arbour so strong is immune to toxic deluge 😂
This game is a great example of why Dryad Arbor should not be buried in a land pile and should always be represented as a creature. It should have died to the Toxic Deluge, and that's actually extremely relevant because it gave Christian the mana he needed to combo off.
Yep, this is why I hate when people do that with mana rocks as well. Multiple times people miss it to "destroy all artifact" effects.
Didn't they make it an official rule that arbor has to be among creatures after this came up in an actual tourney?
@@snowconesyrup2698yes
@@snowconesyrup2698 they did
"There and Stax Again" is hilarious def stealing this for my Gandalf EDH deck
Christian's dryad should have died by the toxic deluge
Without the dryad he wouldn't have been able to cast his commander and the finale of devastation for academy rector.
Good catch!
@@cococovrro Always put your Dryad Arbors up with your creatures, folks!
At 5:00 Christian shouldnt have looted from the ring because frodo's tempt happens after attacks have been declared
Came here to say this
Cats was written by Andrew Lloyd Webber. Great job on that obscure theater trivia.
NICE
@@PlaytoWinMTG He also wrote the music for Phantom of the Opera.
I LOOOOVE how that game played out and that fantastic win
HELL YEAH
Wooo I love seeing the Second Breakfast combo go off fresh out the gates! Also fitting that Aragorn and Gandalf helped keep Sauron occupied while Sam and Frodo snuck in under a Grand Abolisher to get the win, I love it haha
Second Breakfast is a brilliant name for this combo haha
I know you guys talked about it in your set review, but the new hulk pile with Samwise seems crazy, the combo pieces are only 4mv total so you can grab an extra 2mv worth of creature depending on the scenario or just Grand Abolisher for safety. Seems pretty good.
Just wanted to say that transition from the game, to his monitor, to his face was so fucking slick. Some Game Knights level editing over here
Joe Cherries got them and me those gay to win shirts, gonna make it into every CommandFest wardrobe rotation from now on!
That transition was the highlight of the video ✨️🤘🙏 amazing work 👏
Sauron the Dark Lord seems like the better CEDH commander, testing it out now and it’s going well!
That was a super flavorful game! Great showing as always guys!
Nobody's ever a bad guy just for forgetting stuff. EDH boardstates get complicated, and in cEDH you're probably already trying to think ahead. Shit happens.
first of, andrew lloyd webber did indeed write cats, and loved that transition to dylan talking about the game :)
Thank you for telling me this was the last chance for the Gay to Win shirt
The transition was so good i literally rewatched it like 3 times
I think Sauron, the Dark Lord is the Sauron deck it’s in the colors you need and gives you really good value I think if there was a part 2 that one should be used instead. Great video I love the content keep up the work y’all are doing it’s fantastic!!
Yeah I don't understand why this is the sauron they chose. Tivit is a great cedh commander and the dark lord is pretty much a grixis parallel. Has a tough ward, has a engine that just keeps going, and has the ability to have personal wheel of fortunes. I don't get why they chose the nearly unplayable one imo.
@@conjections2506I’ve seen some debate between the 2 online. This Sauron has more inert combos with dockside loops, reanimation stuff, etc, but he’s also 8 mana. The other Sauron doesn’t have loops specifically, but is cheaper, harder to kill, and provides some card advantage. They both have their ways of being built but I think 6 vs 8 mana is just too relevant in this case
@@fosterdawson7339 100% agree. I do like them both, I should make that clear. In my mind though, I just cut straight to the 6 mana one. I'm building it in paper if that's any indication. I had a najeela shell I just basically converted to grixis.
Yeah I am going to try the dark lord in a reanimator build and have sauron lord of the rings in the 99 with displacer kitten.
@@jonathonskogman8337 my initial thought was reanimator as well. I still may yet do that. But for the moment it's just breach thoracle with maximum control. But reanimator just seems free with him.
Another great episode y'all, thanks for making more great content :)
Would love to see another one of this! Especially with the Frodo Sam deck back!
Bought couple of the Gay to Win tank tops for some friends. They loved them!
Great video guys!
What a beautiful game. The song coming in as the games gonna wrap up nice touch ❤
Fire content lads. Absolute fire.
Honestly my play to win itch has just been fixed by exclusively the intro and the name of the decks. Well done lads.
I wish people on Spelltable played this fast…. Can we get an episode of cheapest but best cEDH cards soon? Great content.
I was very excited to see Frodo/Sam as I saw them as a good hulk pile threat gets white when it came out and to see you guys thought the same thing before seeing the video. There was a misplay from what I understand with the second attack of Frodo triggering the ring ability that it does allow you to loot until the third attack of Frodo as it states when this creature attacks loot, since Frodos ability for the ring tempts you is upon attack you will only draw on the second attack from frodos ability not the rings. I saw Frodo and Sam as a bad tymna that seemed great.
veeeeeery good "begin" one, very good
Cam you did it, You sang the Fish Song and made me Happy :D
Who needs to marathon LOTR when you can watch this 😂
I’m willing to watch a dedicated LotR gameplay JUST because of you guys
I really like that Aragorn list, so I made a budget version of the deck and of course gave full credit to you for making it. the budget I set was every card under 50 € apart from Dockside, mana crypt and Ragavan because I own those already and you kinda need at least dockside for the deck to work. I'm surprised Deadeye Navigator isn't in the deck, that loops with Dockside too. Same with Birgi and Grinning Ignus, also a machine gun combo. I of course put those in the budget version.
Dylan redeems his cheat with that smooth in and out transition 🎉
Seeing how many decks you guys have, are all of your cards real or do you proxy the more expensive cards to use them in more than one deck?
They proxy a fair bit I believe, they've mentioned they have a big proxy box.
enjoyed the content as always but the dryad abor was so annoying being down with the lands and not dying to toxic deluge
Where did you get the oversized ring helper card?
Edit: that love change transition was also super clean for how chaotic it was. Love the little stuff you guys do on the channel that makes it all the more entertaining.
I printed it
Excellent "BEGIN". Very good, have an upvote.
Would really like to see your guys take on a Sauron the Dark Lord Build and game
Hey at 5:55 did Christian forgot to remove the dryad arbor from the toxic deluge?
Sauron, the White Hand slaps so hard. I don’t know if it’s up to par with cedh power levels, but he is way stronk for casual tables.
Clean edit as hell
pride playmat is sick af!!
A fun game I like to play with myself for the intro and narrations is to watch the person who isn’t talking. Feels extra awkward lol
THERE WAS SOO MUCH FLAVOR! W team! Was literally just missing Sméagol and TOR 😂
Hey guys, trying to get the gay to win shirt but the link only shows me the regular play to win design and I have that one already. Any help?
Should be an option if you scroll all the way down
That huge the ring card is hilarious
The movie flavor win made this game stand out. Loved it guys thank you
"We have me on Sauron, Lord of the Rings"
HE SAID IT, HE SAID THE LINE!
That felt like a great game
Chris got the flavor!! he came from behind, worked his way very silent and sneaky just like Sam and Frodo in the movies hahaha
That was cool! A+
Missed opportunity for the stax deck to be named "You shall not cast" 😂
This game was awesome, great energy at the table
I always love when you do crazy transitions like that Dylan, that was really cool
I love the cheering for the flavor win at the end
Thanks for always putting great Shit out for all of us!
Dylan was singing the entire time because of all the singing that happens in the books.
This is my second time watching this and I did NOT realize how big Christian's copy of the ring was
That was awesome
Did Christian choose a ring bearer? I might have just been zoned and missed it
Bought the precon (food and fellowship), deff making it more competitive!
Came here to tell Dylan that Andrew Lloyd Webber did write Cats!
I am actually a little puzzled how Cam busted out the ALW name but didn't know he wrote Cats ahaha
It hurt me thst you didnt run a stax life gain deck using the white green black commander that lets you search when you hit 110 life.
Where can I see the hulk list?
In the description
no lotho/lurrus?
That order shirt is great
can't see reprieve in there and stax decklist
Flavorful game!
Not sure if this would change the game, but dylan should have 6 treasure when he casted dockside. There where 2 treasure of feild as well as the 4 artifacts he counted. Am I worng?
Dylan you should try my darklord Sauron build
Deck names are excellent
I love those shirts!
Aragorn also wins with dockside and a bouncer. Pretty solid
Lloyd Webber did write "Cats"
the ring card is absolutely massive XD
Frodo's second attack wouldn't have triggered the loot, would it? Because attacks are already declared when the tempting resolves(?)
Great game but I’m a bit bummed you didn’t use the other Sauron. It’s was better
The arbor land forgot the name but should be gone
Sauron also cheated, which is even more flavorful.
This game makes me sad because I want to play Aragorn but unfortunately it took so long for him to actually come into play
Cam may have sang alot during this, but I definitely finished the songs.
I wish, I wish, I wish I was a fish.
I wish, I wish, I wish I was a fish.
Mystiiiic Remorah's broken
He just played it.
Here we go again.
Dun dun dun dun-dun-dun
Dun dun dun-dun-dun
Dun dun-dun-dun da! Doo do do..... yeah you guys get the point.
Sam makes the best Hulk Pile now! What are the best Abzan hulk commanders? Tymna Halana?
Andrew Lloyd Webber DID write Cats hahaha
If Gandalf is on the battle field and you cast phyrexian revoler don’t you get to name 2 cards since gandolf doubles ETB triggers
Phyrexian revoker isn't an enter the battlefield trigger, is as it enter meaning upon resolution u name the card then hit the battlefield
Cam how was Dolleywood
Fantastic, thank you
He did write cats!
Cats and Phantom are the big ones! (he is my uncle)
Gollum the obsessed stalker is the best for cedh to me.
I've been getting weird vibes from 6 mana Sauron (The Dark Lord iirc), that is some serious Ward, and he's pretty beefy, and if you have the right deck you can make a lot of use out of a free 1/1 token each time an opponent casts a spell (which you can also just let get huge and have crush folks). Then, he also draws a bajillion cards for almost nothing, AND he fuels your Breach... while it's 6 mana to get him out, he's gonna stay out unless someone wipes or wins, I suspect this might be a nice Grixis Midrange deck, though I don't play Grixis.
As soon as you see someone playing Dryad arbor, ask him to put it as a creature. Always. Without question. Even if it is not malicious it should never be represented as a land because it is simply misleading for everyone involved.
I believe by actual game rule it must be represented with creatures
The 2 life didn’t matter because you block with dockside against cam if your life total is actually at risk in which Tyler still kills you. No harm or foul, good game 👍🏼
I read Christians pronouns as Frodo/Sam and just accepted it
I read as follows: Tyler he/him, Dylan he/him, Christian Frodo/Sam
That was weird for my brain
I'm a little sad Saruman of Many Colours didn't make it the cut, I think he's got some real game as an Esper commander to muck with people's wincons and steal value
Nice game. ❤
I keep waiting for the day someone gets their turn 1 fetch oppo agented, lololol happened to me yesterday and i want to see someone else feel the pain lololol
Shouldn’t Christians dryad arbor have died from the toxic deluge the second time around?
10:00 Why would you Dispel a Force of Will that's targeting to stop a literal Grand Abolisher "Legendary edition" that would be resolving on an opponents field? Wouldn't YOU want to be able to interact when it's their turn? It's amazing that Tyler didn't have what he needed to resolve a Walking Ballista nor Triskelion because Cam would had just given him the game.
12:30 The Zulaport Cutthrout is redundant as Samwise, the cat, and a sacrifice outlet (Viscera Seer) is all you need to win. i would had fetched for another sacrifice outlet for sacrifice redundancy but i don't know what he had in mind maybe Zulaport was part of a "backup" plan.
How does he cast gandalf with 4 mana? Isnt it 5?
Same with re casting gandalf he paid 6? Doesnt floating that mox opal mana thizzle in phases?
KEEP SINGING CAM 😂
did you know barrin master wizard COUNTS as a WIZARD!?
