Join Charlie and the gang as we prerelease and 1v1 with Modern Horizons 3! How many Eldrazi do we pull!? Sealed gameplay, MH3 deckbuilding, Emrakul and more!
For future reference, Deathtouch + Trample will allow the creature with Deathtouch to assign only 1 damage to the blocking creature and the rest to trample over. Trample only needs to assign lethal damage to a blocker before the rest of the damage goes to the player. So a trampler with Deathtouch will only need to assign 1 damage to a blocker before the rest tramples over.
And in case it's ever relevant because it'll come up eventually: If a deathtouch trampler attacks into an indestructible creature, only one damage needs to be assigned to the indestructible creature as it's still considered lethal damage.
I am glad you made the comment bc it was bugging me lmao. For those interested: sealed you make your deck from 6 packs you open and keep and a random pre release foil. draft: you open 1 of 3 packs at a time, select a card, then pass the rest to the person next to you. repeat this until you have used all your packs and build a deck. sealed is less intensive but usually less powerful as you can get see more cards in draft. They are playing sealed here for which wotc sells prepackaged, purpose build products called pre release packs that are sold to local game stores for an event that takes place each time a new set comes out. a lot of fun, highly recommend for new players!
So everyone that plays has to buy a new "pre release" box....per game.... They only seem to be $20 but if everyone buys one....that's a $60 dollar game...I think iv understood them incorrectly
@@MisterSludge each player buys one box and builds one deck for the tournament usually and pre release events are 2of3 game matches. I think these guys are just showing off the format and having fun
@@MisterSludge to clear up sealed is an all day even and you'd play the deck is 3 to 5 round of best of 3 games. So you get alot of magic out of it. But also importantly it cost about as much to just open packs as it does to play sealed of draft event and you keep what you open , this is why they are the only ways you should crack packs.
Great Video! Two points to improve: 1. The Format is called Sealed not Draft. These are very different variants of playing magic. 2. Maybe get a "judge" or experienced player as a table friend to help with interactions (There were a lot of misplays, which is fine. But you hamper your ability to get better without someone telling you some of them.)
A lot of rules misses during this gameplay but that's aright for a channel just getting started! 27:16 - Charlie's creatures should have got double the counters AFTER the initial 1+1 counter was placed on each creature, it does not in fact only double the ones placed on the creatures that turn as was suggested. "Put a 1 +1 counter on [each] creature you control, THEN, double the number of 1+1 counters on each creature that had counters put on it this way."
Did I miss something with Fangs of Kalonia around 27:22? It doubles all +1/+1 counters on the creature overall after it puts the +1/+1 on each creature. Right?? :O
Don’t get me wrong. This is the absolute best that Charlie is playing Magic! I love it! Everything is a learning opportunity in this game, especially when you start seeing interactions in gameplay. It is actually awesome to watch the journey of degenerate gaming unfold :D
The way it read is "double the number of counters on each creature that has a counter put on this way" Essentially if the spell gave a creature +1/+1 COUNTERS double it. If a creature has +1/+1 it's not the same thing.
Yeah your right basically Charlie's top two creatures should have 4 +1/+1 counters and the bottom creature should have 2 +1+1 counters. If your new keep in mine +1/+1 COUNTERS is NOT the same as +1/+1. As the latter is generally a temporary boost and the counters are basically attached to the creature until it dies or counters are removed.
Psychic Frog is a reference to Psychatog, one of the grossest creatures in earlier Magic competitive history. It was used in Upheaval decks after bouncing everything to just eat your hand and graveyard and hit for lethal.
I love all the missplays not because they're funny but because it reminds me of when I started playing magic and it makes me so nostalgic, great games anyway ❤
the gameplay looks so fascinating;; pls teach me possibly at my pace ! or if i catch on faster just maybe id be down to play Magic (so many friends play, im the lame-o who hasnt picked up a deck(s))- BUT i know so many other card games/akin to Magic the Gathering
1:06:53 doesn’t the spell still resolve as much as possible, In that case he would have been able to have another blocker and would have been able to prevent game? He should’ve been able to cast the card off the top of the library no? Edit: Shouldn’t Jesse have been able to cast the creature spell off the top of Charlie’s library from Crabdomination’s trigger?
Game 2 youd be able to look through your library after declaring the amount you're sacrificing. Game 2 and 3 support says other creatures, so it can't pump itself. Also, saga goes directly after drawing. The way i remember everything is "phase, untap, upkeep, draw, saga, rad", or just "draw, saga" for this specific one.
27:14 it doesn't only double the counter that we're put in them that turn. It says "double the +1/+1 counters of every creature that had a +1/+1 counter put on it this way." So the genku and dryad would have had 4 counters, and the mycospawn would have 2. Also, just realized that Charlie never created a token for his second dryad dying.
56:32 support says, "on each of up to 2 other target creatures" so the counter can't go on the Aerie Auxiliary. You would have to put them on both of the Dryads. And 2 2/3s with deathtouch is really quite strong. They can either trade with anything or just straight up survive most creatures with their beefy toughness.
1:15:15 this isn't because of a missed trigger or from the players misunderstanding the rules. Just something I feel is a bit stronger of a move than sac'ing him before combat, but mogg mob doesn't say that they have to be sac'd at sorcery speed, or that it needs to tap to be sac'd. So he could have swung with mogg mob and presented as though he was going to deal 8 damage. The defending player then has 3 options. 1.) Block the 1/1 and take 9 damage. Then the attacker can sacrifice the mogg mob to deal 3 damage directly to the defender. This even works if mogg mob was the blocked and they'll take a further 3 damage for 13. That's fatal. 2.) He can block the mogg mob. In which case the attacker sac's mogg mob and deals 3 damage to the defender and then the defender takes a further 7 damage. Leaving him at 1. 3.) He can block fury with with his 7/5 believing that they'll trade. Then the attacker sacrifices mogg mob to deal 2 of the 3 damage to the blocker and leaving it at 3 toughness and 1 damage to the defender. Then fury hits with the first strike portion of it's double strike to finish it off without taking any damage itself. Then the 1/1 hits. The defender has taken 2 damage and has lost a powerful blocker. Leaving them scrambling on each subsequent turn to block a 3/3 double striker as their life total dwindles. 3 Is the best case scenario for the defender of these because it buys them more turns, but it's still better for the attacker than than Leaving the 7/5 alive for future attacks. If the defender managed to play a blocker every turn after that then they could chump block the fury and beat the attacker down for 7 every turn. 20 life and 4 life aren't too dissimilar when one side can only get 1 damage through and the other can get 7.
1:17:07 he tapped a wooded foothills for mana. Lands only tap for mana if they have an ability or if they have the basic supertype. Wooded foothills' only ability is to fetch a land at the cost of 1 life.
27:20 wouldn’t the counter double period? So his two other creatures would be +4/+4 due to it saying double the number of 1/1 counters on each creature who had a counter put on it this way. Meaning the original counter would be doubled too.
Aerie Auxiliary misplayed twice I think. Doesn't it add counters to two _other_ creatures, meaning not Aerie Auxiliary? Also, why didn't Jesse play the creature from the top of Charlie's library after using Crabomination? That would have won him the game on the next turn with blocks right?
27:07 how does this only doubles the counters given by this card? It clearly states doubles the +1+1 counters on each creature that had +1 +1 counter put on it this way. Which to me sounds like add +1/+1 to one or more creatures, then double the counters on the creatures that were targeted by this spell
@@PartTimeEuphoRia im not mad. Im just trying to explain what I understand. Also when you say "it does", do you mean it does only double counters given by this card or doubles all +1/+1 on it?
my thoughts: Oh my gosh, how the mighty Ulalek has fallen from the pedestal of most expensive legendary of the precons... now a 2 USD mythic (checked with today's pricing)
Lets all admit this game has a major newb in it and that newb is named Charlie so rules, triggers, things that will annoy us all are going to happen badly and you just have to be okay with it cause nobody really cares. This is just fun to watch. Hopefully hell learn for future games though
It's the kind of thing that just feels bad to do lol. I've been in that spot where a literal 9 years old used Evolving Wilds to fetch a shockland untapped and I felt like a jerk for calling the judge about it. 😂 I mean I wanted the kid to learn and hopefully he did. That was a pre-release event and packs where on the line so I kinda had to call the judge lol. If he was able to fetch for a shockland I would have died to his bomb coming out one turn early. This was more of a casual sealed game between friends so they probably let Charlie's mistakes slide. He would probably be having a lot less fun if his friends just kept correcting all his mistakes.
You know its going to be a fun video when Charlie turn 3 misplays and brings out Genku. His land made the island come in tapped. Lol. Honestly mistakes like this make me like this content more because its real friedns playing magic and having fun.
Charlie missed every single trigger of Genku, Future Shaper. He would have had half an army by the time it was removed
Emrukrul being sent to the bottom of deck after Charlie shuffles is hilarious 32:02
When Ryan said “that looks like the ‘I drew an Emrakul face’” I lost it after knowing it was on the bottom
Those 3 color fetches grab a tapped land, he couldn’t cast genku when he did.
That bothered me as well
Yeah but he forgot his genku triggers so it balances out.
Also I just got to the point where Charlie just got one extra counter instead of doubling his counters.
@@lordtachanka2740 yea he’s still really new lol just didn’t see anyone else comment about it, want to make sure he knows what he’s doing wrong.
@@Carbon3440Z Didn't he fetch the island the same turn when he played Genku? The island comes in tapped

@@AruhiTheGreat Wait, deathtouch kills indestructible creatures?
@@cryoboy It doesn't but since the creature has deathtouch it is considered "lethal" damage even if it doesn't kill the creature.

49:30 Deathtouch and Trample would be lethal here, but the creature is actually a Sylvan Safekeeper
Was about to comment the same thing
*could
The deathtoucher was sacced for nadu before that, the card on screen was a mistake.
I actually thought the same thing. They put the wrong card on screen. It was actually attached to a sylvan safekeeper.
Call me Katniss Everdeen the way I’m hungry for these games (again)
Put that on a shirt
I really like that no one’s shitting on new players for missing triggers and misplays but are instead offering constructive feedback
That’s what I love about Magic at least 90% of the community is just excited that you decided to learn to play, the rest is competitive players

Aerie Auxilliary doesnt work like that at 43:29. its ability states others creatures so it cant target itself.
He missed his 0/1 eldrazi token as well.
Matt the type of guy to dip his foot in the pool to test the water before cannon balling in

The way I pogged when I saw this notif, were getting MTG AND D&D back to back. Charlie is spoiling us!
Just started getting into magic again after selling my childhood collection love watching yall play commander while i build my decks thank you
Love this channel got me back into magic keep up the great work 👍
Intro went so crazy I sold my first born kid
Thanks for the kid

i second some comments i’ve seen. this was super fun to watch and a great improvement would be to have a judge monitoring for accidental misplays
Tranquil landscape game one should’ve entered tapped, genku came early 😂
I love ur laugh Jesse
Awesome timing. I wanted more Charlie mtg content!
This is becoming my favorite series, I really hope Magic sticks around on the channel
Has Charlie ever thought about trying to get on Shuffle Up and Play or Game Knights?
That’s what I’m thinking!
Update: Prof confirmed that Charlie is in fact on Shuffle Up and Play :0
good job chase
you forgot the “you are so handsome”
Aerie auxiliary supports on OTHER creatures.
shouldn't the nightshade dryad have destroyed the fanatic of rhonas since it has deathtouch? 49:19
Yes! I don't know how they missed that!
I loved this entire video. But Aaron vs Chase killed me, 2 super silly geese 😂
That intro is crisp with the mh3 art
Charlie missed a couple of Genku triggers off that board wipe
Pretty sure he missed the first dryad dying as well
Jesse, I hope you see this and know that your editing is phenomenal.
Lets goooo! Im always hyped for the uploads!
Chase, pog! Gratz mayne!
tapping a land that came in tapped.and not shuffling... charlie playing a little shady :p

As a teddiursa stan I really appreciate seeing him in the background of every episode. I think I have that exact plush 😅
All the misplays were painful but im still loving the games on this channel. Gg boys

The price fluctuations on these cards is extraordinary
That white mat is blinding.

The content we all need
Intro pops off
You guys have gotten be back into magic. I am a little scared

Fun Fact! Fury has double strike, so it could actually kill a 1/1 with deathtouch or a 9/7 eldrazi! 1:19:02
