Great to see James sharing the love. He speaks so well about this game and how best to enjoy it. Spikes on the Mic are always informative and helpful.
Jim's one of the brightest (and I mean that in every sense of the word) minds in Magic. Very glad to learn from him here!
I love the flavor of the Gravecrawler, Rooftop Storm and Phyrexian Altar combo. It’s like you take gravecrawler put him on an altar and hit it with the storm keeping him in a constant state between life and death. It feels like that one Frankenstein scene. Every time I play it I shout “IT’S ALIIIIIIVE!!” at my table. My playgroup don’t get annoyed at all. Plus all the cards are great in a zombie deck and never just dead without the combo pieces. It’s awesome.
Jimothy! I know that guy. Didn't expect to see him on an episode of command zone.
Giant thinker time.
I had a massive turn with my Damia, Sage of Stone deck where I stole a card from one player's graveyard, one from a second player's library, and one from the last player's board and used the cards I stole to create an infinite combo that my deck, nor any of theirs, could never have made on their own.
Even if you don't play with combo it is still super important to at least know the prominent ones so you can try to play around them.
This is one of the best episodes you all have ever made, especially the back half.
This was a fantastic analysis episode.
Fantastic episode! So awesome to see Jim on the show.
Well hey there, it's Jim! nice crossover.
Jim LaPage is a treasure. One of the best. Great to see him here!
Port Razer + Rionya is fun. Copy Port razer 3-4 times and have them attack other players
Would love to see Jim on an episode of game knights
JIIIIIIIIM!!!!!!!!!!! love having him on.
Whhooooaaaa That Jim is some looker And really articulate! Great guest for the podcast!!!! Perhaps we will see more of him!?😁🤩
That bit about pre-game discussion should apply to ALL decks, whether or not you play combos. Let people know when you are expecting to end the game.
The Port Razer/Olivia explain was really well done and helped it all click for me personally. I’ve been trying to understand combos more lately so I don’t slow down the table.
This was one of my favorite command zone podcast videos ever. So, so, so informative and great breakdowns on how to break down the combo player or be a better combo player. Having Jim on was great, too. Thanks for the great content!
