    Hi Everyone - Hope you enjoyed the episode. And you wouldn't be looking at the comments if you hadn't already watched the whole thing, right? Because I certainly wouldn't want to spoil anything for anyone... Anyway, friendly reminder that Teferi's Protection gives a player "Protection from Everything" which means that damage from any source is completely prevented. The whole "you still take Commander Damage thing" only applies if a card were to say "damage from this can't be prevented" however, no card in this game says that (you're thinking of Questing Beast). -JLK

      Take the Bait only goads the attacking creatures, not all of their creatures

    • @enoesiw
      @enoesiw Před 5 měsíci +3

      ​@@Natedogg2 I think you're trying to be clever about the difference between "attack" and "attacking" but got it mixed up. Any attacking creature would be goaded, including tokens created during combat and put into play tapped and attacking because the card does not stipulate that the creatures needed to have attacked this turn.
      In other words, you need to attack to get attack triggers like drawing a card when a creature attacks or paying 2 for propaganda. But going straight into play attacking will miss the draw and get around the Propaganda tax, however they are still attacking.
      TL;DR: All creatures that attack are attacking, but not all attacking creatures had to attack.

Even the little details, like a CSI worker slipping a copy of Hard Evidence into an evidence bag. You could tell that so much thought and effort was put into all of it.

    Wonder if Jimmy thought about the line where after getting his bounce spell countered, he could've sacrificed his Mocking Doppleganger(which was Pride of the Hull Clade atm) in order to return it with Mirko at the end step as copy of Arin's commander. Perhaps that line was exactly why Arin chose the Altar of Dementia to get Rec't.

    The hilarious thing is that at 55:10 when Jimmy is asking Emily to counterspell it, she actually had a spellskite. So that means, she could have actually saved Jimmy lol. Pretty sure it got overlooked because of the chaos but if she chose to let it happen because she was salty over the attempted boardwipe that just makes it funnier.

    The time and effort put into the intro, the advertisements, and the in-game animations for some of the cards are the reasons why I love this channel. I started playing Magic a little over two years ago and I wouldn't have been nearly as invested in to if it wasn't for you. Thank you for another piece of quality content. 😁

    Maybe they should've gotten his "Uncle" on for this one.

    Arin is absolutely hilarious. I've been watching him way longer than I've been playing Magic, and it's great to see how his sense of humor works in this style of video. That was a great game of commander with some super fun decks. I'm bummed we didn't get to see Rachel's deck pop off because her commander seems super fun to build around, but that's just how it goes sometimes. Loved this video and I can't wait to see what else these folks do with this release.

    NGL, was kinda hoping the conclusion would be Arin pulling out a last minute "damage can't be prevented" effect to win with Commander damage through the Teferi's Protection, would have been an epic rules moment.
    For those who don't know: Teferi's Protection prevents damage and makes it so your life total can't change, but in MTG "can't" effects always trump "can" effects, so if the player attacking the person under TP has an effect active that makes it so that damage _can't_ be prevented then the damage will still be dealt, it won't appear to do anything in most cases as the person under TP can't have their life total change but things like Commander damage and Poison counters will still accumulate in this situation.
