![Day [9] vs. Alan Tudyk, Felicia Day, and Ryon Day in Magic: The Gathering: Spellslingers](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/56UGHt1IX7Q/mqdefault.jpg)
This video was a very nice combination of noob mistakes, experienced strategy and subtleties of play. Thanks!
“It’s dirty, I don’t like it, and i don’t know why I showed you it”
That’s literally such a mood, I’m always doing this, showing combos that’ll screw me over in the long run lol
I have been playing for a few years now, and this was a ton of fun to watch. You demonstrated both the stress of being a newish player as well as the gracious nature of more experienced ones. We are all on the same journey, just at different waypoints. Great job, everyone!
Awesome video. Love that you guys are creating Magic content and getting new players into the game. Keep it up!
I like Ify's charisma and disposition toward the game. I hope to see him on the show in the future.
Ry Charisma? He looks and sounds high af. Lol
And you don't play MTG high af? What happened to all the fun in the world.
Lol no, no I don't.
@@jhochges kids these days just don't respect the game. Playing sober! Smh
The guy who said, yeah, even though you're learning and I would have blocked that, im not going to anymore because you told me what your hand was, even though you're learning. Kind of a dbag move, don't you think?
Ify and Erika were great players! A lot of fun stories and enthusiasm!
My nephews really got into Magic after starting to watch this show following spellslingers every once a week I take them out to get packs. Pretty exciting feeling seeing them play the game and plan around cards
That's really awesome, I'm glad you're able to share the hobby with your family!
Can I be in your family?
I’m just getting into MTG and these videos are very helpful! Thank you for making them
I wish Ify's mic was louder. The balance between him and Erika is off. I try and turn up the volume when Ify is taking and then it's way too loud when Erika talks.
Same, bro, same
Erica, props for holding out that hand at the end, you are grace itself :D And Ify is just the coolest
Awesome video! Keep up the good work.
Where can you get the mats where you have the cards placed? I want to buy one myself to use I'm a new magic player.
I learned about how the PlainsWalker works. I loved the way she shuffled in the second game, it was so funny. Thanks
Just got done building my first deck and I made a red/green agroo deck. I love the deck but have yet to use it. Inside I have alpha lightning bolts and shocks as well as galvanic arc and other creatures that have mountain walk. To wrap up my deck it is a deck with 24 mana a bunch of cheap costing cards to deal massive damage to my opponent before they even have creatures on the field.
Let me add to the sub theme of the decks already mentioned
Control- tempo (making your opponent replay cards or set them back a turn
Aggro- tribal/ synergy ( cards that have the same type or cards that work well together)
Midrange-(the mana curve) playing cards in succession of raising mana cost one above the previous turn.
If these decks get these sub ideas correct they have a good winning chance
Becca stole my heart
hi i love your channel so much, im new player mtg so i still learn about it 😅. i have a question about Artifact ( not creature & equip ) are enchanment n artifact can play per turn? because this permanent card right? , so this card can we use per turn? like creature do. please help me. tx
Ify with the "nice" comment at 6-9 life totals...legend
Was a fun to watch, this guy feels old for that indestructible knight thing, that is still new card for me :D , I feel like an old Lich watching this :D I started back in the days with avatar of woe and Charging troll :D. At least I'm not ancient enough to consider Black knight my first card :D do I love it.
i hope your going to show how to play new set throne of eldraine and play
After the Sarkhan's Dragonfire where she pulled the Fiery Finish, how come she didn't show it to the opponent? It says "...reveal a red card...". I am new to MTG, just started playing with the Core 2019 set so I'm still learning all the rules, but it seems that they missed a basic mechanic. Or am I reading it wrong?
I LOVE that she wore her color matching dress. not to mention looks amazing in it =P
Is the starting mono-red deck the same one that Ashley Clemens used to thrash Day9 on Spellslingers oh so many years ago?
22:09 that’s what she said lol. She is not helping the dragon lady at all telling her opponent that she has shocks and all. I would have said attack and if he blocks it’s ok if your creature dies as long as you do damage now before he stabilizes but in response to damage on the stack, shock his flyer. That’s how you teach.
If I have cards and then a new set comes out, do my cards become obsolete

Creature - Host Cutie
You may play this creature as an interrupt.
metalsabatico THE SWAT WOULD LIKE TO KNOW YOUR LOCATION!!!!!
I like the idea behind the game. Customization to taste is always good. My only problem with Magic occurs in competitions. Virtually EVERY card has a special rule on it so when your opponent has a bunch of cards on his side you have to remember what all his cards do to make sure he's not cheating. The bottom line is you have to learn a whole new set of rules EVERY game to be on it....
Also Ify is awesome. I would love to play him. It’s nice to see more experienced players in the show as it progresses. Maybe we can see The Professor, DJ, Day9, or Josh in future episodes?
Christopher Lane yes totally agree
Doesn't knights often have protection any more? I seem to recall lots of protection from red knight back in the day. Not as often as black but still mono colour against knight could be a terrible mistake.
Protection has been deemed too complicated ability and has been phased mostly out.
Where can we buy these playmats?
Deck building? Not really. I feel like an in-depth deck building strategy show with Ify Nwadiwe would have taught people better. Him and a “new” player break open a couple deck builders kits and then build decks together while he explained the steps of building a deck. Then they play a match.
Thomas Simons I agree but the problem is that at the same time they are trying to do this topic, they were trying to a reunion show (of a kind) at the saw time. Given this show’s given premise the deck should have been in front of the black guy as he seemed to know why was going on. Or even better, given them both the cards there were going to give them and show how to build a deck from that. They way they did it failed the premise of the show and ran too long (Beca seemed to want her Girl friend to win or have a better game). The result was (while fun to watch for me) not really what they should have done.
Maybe not the best idea to advertise your own video
This level of play is Magic at its best. There is still plenty for experienced players but I don't think it ever gets better than this. I remember getting exited for a "Wall of Frost." Very different from trying to save up for some "Noble Hierarch."
Leuthaneous first pack I ever opened got me "worldfire" I think it was called. Mythic firt pack lol
Nicholas Thegeek haha I was such a noob. If I had gotten that card I would have cast it thinking it only happened to my opponent. Then when I found I had screwed myself I would have tried to play it off like I had it planned lol.
Leuthaneous I remember getting an avacyn restored deckbuilding kit and built a pretty rudimentary deck around avacyn herself. I was lucky to get her in a pack in an intro deck I also got (angelic might) The deck ended up being R/W/G with ramp, burn and white for big fliers
Nicholas Thegeek man that deck sounds like fun. Also it sounds way better than anything I made early on. I landed two Geist of Saint Trafts and thought it was weak because I didn't get to keep the angel! Haha wow. Good times though.
Leuthaneous Agreed. I also thought that way about traft. I made a fun shenanigans deck using populate to copy the angel at instant speed before it exiles
Wasn't Becca the "Hey Hey Show" host for "Good Mythical Morning"?
As someone who is only just beginning witn magic (only played 4 games!), and wants to build their own (first) deck, is there a colour you guys would recommend to go with?
ImperfectTitan Aggresive decks are easier to build since you just need simple creatures and aggresive instants to win the game. There's no need for elaborate combos. Therefore i highly recommend red with a color of your choice: white if you wanna have a ton of creatures buffing each other, green if you prefer fewer, bigger dudes. I wouldn't recommend putting in any blue or black cards, since they rely more on disrupting your enemies and doing combos, and aggro decks don't need that to win.
Loli Hentai , I like the idea of a red/ white combo, so I might look into that. I appreciate the advice!
Always go for bleu even if it is to annoy your opponent :) but for real bleu is a great support color and for the rest just explore all the colors that magic has to offer
I think it honestly depends on how you want to play, and I dont know your personality at all so I would just recommend watching their last How To Play Magic video about what all the colors are all about. I don't know if that was helpful but I hope it was
You can explore all the colors you want, but once you go Black , you never go back :D
Cocktail dress and rad haircut vs grey & white t-shirt and sweat pants. Hmmmmm.
Becca doesn't help her when she entirely misses her T3 land drop? Should have definitely had more lands and been able to play her stuff sooner. Would have definitely been able to sarkan's fire + shock.
In MtG rarity does not a good card make. There has even been total flops in mythic rare even though Wizards said when it was introduced that mythic rares would be usable cards. Both these decks have common cards that the deck would not work without them and I don't mean basic lands.
The main reason why good cards exist in every rarity level is that draft would not work properly if evaluating cards goes take rare, take uncommon and leave commons when those others are gone. Constructing decks also would be more expensive if all the cards you need would be uncommon or rarer. I'm not saying that there are not rare cards that are stable for constructed decks. I'm saying that you also need common cards to construct a viable deck.
You have to reveal the card you choose if it has any limits on the type of card. I thought lands didn't have a color.
C Moore you are correct on both subjects
That’s how I imagine my shuffle looks as well 😂
30mins in. And there has been very little talk on deck building. And when ify makes what seems to be a very good point about combos and building a deck to use the cards you have it is ignored because this has been pre-arranged....
Very frustrating for a new player to watch as I'm trying to learn what cards combo well and are cost effective so I don't put cards in my deck that are inefficient or don't sync well..
Was good to watch the match though as ify makes reference in ways to bluff opponents by leaving mana open a d doing your actions on 2nd main phase not first. So thank you to him. 👍
I'm waiting to see if Magic the gathering Arena is gonna be a strong alternative to Hearthstone bcs theres no other card game popular other than hearthstone. We will see
Sooo
I really like these people and LOVE magic.
From the title of this video and the thumbnail I expected a guide to build a deck from scratch (with a deckbuilders toolkit). This felt more like a small and undetailed guide to sideboarding instead and then a game of magic.
It was just an explanation of the dragon deck? And some changes to it and then playtesting it. Playtesting it IS a big portion of (advanced) deckbuilding, which was mentioned (very good) but I felt that that was not the intended point of the video.
Also I thinkt that newer players to the game might find it difficult to follow this game because they migh not know many of the cards and only a few were shown so we could read them.
Best way to learn how to play magic buy a bunch of bulk brew some bad decks with a friend or friends. Google the proper rules and try to follow them as best as possible and have fun in some wet noodle games .
@@davidmarino617 true :)
Note to starting players: Construction kit components are not accurate archetype representations of competitive gameplay. Just something to note for those who would consider joining outside playgroups!
12:52 nice
My God, you could've turned it into a drinking game, "drink every time Becca interrupts someone".
Synth Ovine that game would only work with professor Xavier.
emo_pizzas #1 ha I don’t feel like killing my self.
Maybe they should have a magic card named Becca, The Interrupter. It'll be an instant spell that costs half your life basically. " All phases get prevented this turn, permanents a player tapped remain tapped."
the harry potter glasses 😍
Lands aren't colored cards. You cannot choose to grab a land when playing Sarkhan's Dragonfire.
37:40 Pile shuffle please it's an option.
6:15 Your first ever deck was after planeswalkers were added to the game? Damn you people are new to this.
jshowa o except these people had their own shown on mtg.
Good game
she could of won with demanding dragon and lighting strike XD oh well at least she got to play a nice foil planeswalker
best way to improve the Sarkhan Planeswalker Deck? throw a Vivien Planeswalker Deck in! deckstats.net/decks/69375/1031726-sarkhan-vivien-planeswalker-de
Iffy was like wtf when she had to retcon her play
Kodak Geek?
Tap up keep draw
Well, technicly, Erika did the same mistake twice, and i don't blame her cause it's the most common mistake i've seen in magic, she didn't reveal the card when searching her top 5 cards. The most important thing people should remember in Magic is to read every words in the description as they are all important.
Evey Hyuu rtfc
Not only didn’t she reveal the card she drew, the card also specified she could choose a “Red” card from among them, yet she chose a “Mountain,” which is not a red card. Land cards have no color. Mountains are colorless cards that generate “Red” mana, so the land card itself has no color.
Wait...THATS IFY?!?!?
Bring back table top
Novice Knight can not attack with Might Leap !!!
It didn't. It blocked.
im a 20 mana guy myself
james stabile I’m a 24 because 24 is my favorite number and it is a solid mana fix in your deck.
BTW you dont use +1/+1 counters for the static +1/+1 effects of auras.
Shouldnt do it to teach as its just wrong.
This always triggers me in real life. I feel like it ultimately makes things more confusing.Unless you have the dice showing it slightly off from the card, like floating next to it.
I think they forgot combo
22:00 You caged a nobody?
Great
The thirst is real [Becca] @ 6:28 and so is the jealousy [Erika] lmao
#BringBackMulligan
PAID PROMOTIONAL CONTENT: THE SHOW!
I like how the White player is wearing white and the red player is wearing red. Lol it’s like Power Rangers. Only with Magic.
night lovell
Just have to put this out there...during the explanation video, a Plummet is put into the deck. Nobody main decks Plummet. Nobody ever.
bardunshield they so if it's a casual game or one they aren't expecting to play more than one match
Sure they do spiders aren't really cutting it as reach blockers in this set so for green to get rid of fliers plummet is actually very valuable. Taking out the heavy hitters is a more controversial move.
They arent bad in limited, especially if you dont have a lot of removal. In limited you can get murdered by a flyer simply because you cant block it. Creatures are usually more dangerous in limited because you have less removal and creatures that can get past yours like a flyer are deadly. Definitely one of the first things you think about cutting though.
Daniel Bemis while yes they would most dragons aren't two drops. That said they should have taken out some of the more expensive red dmg spells instead. Plummet is removal too and cheaper. Meanwhile things that dont have flying and are to big to shock their green critters should be able to deal with.
Good lord! A red head and a red dress in the same video? How can I get a seat at that table?
And a red deck! On a red table!
This video could have been great. but why is it so dumbed down?? why are the persons so flimsy and floppy in presentation and gameplay? if the people in this video seriously talked about how to actually play this game, do a serious deck build and discuss some basic strategies etc, this video would have been brilliant. This game can be so much fun, so casual, so friendly, it is great watching three people laughing and having fun playing. But I do think you do yourself a disfavour when not presenting the players or the game as skilled and as sharp as they clearly are, but rather show them as shallow, dumbed down characters.
for example, Ivys comment about when to play instants "you should always check if your opponent have their lands tapped". that is BRILLIANT advice for new players. things like that should be in this video so much more.
Ify and Erica play magic? Since when????
Step one, grab your wallet... and others', too.
She forgot to play a land on turn 2. Only the sickest of peeps roll on the edge like that.
Think it was turn 3 but yeah.
Matthew Wells I was yelling at my phone play that fucking land & when she played sharkan she could have -3 him & I think it would have killed his creature
A black guy playing MTG, I feel so good to stay tuned.
First like cause I wasn't the first view
Ify seems high. At least way more subdued than I've ever seen.
WHATS WRONG WITH YU GI OH
I'm confused on what that Asian creature actually is
Is it me, or does Becca looks exactly like Becky Lynch?
Slow AF
Becca is insufferable...
Using 'dope' to mean 'cool' is a sad habit to witness.
cringe
This show tries so badly to be "woke" and inclusive its downright brutal ...
Being surrounded by people who are different colors than you and involving them in things you like to do isn't "trying hard" to be inclusive. Not everyone likes to live in a bubble of their own kind. You have a lot to learn apparently.
To be fair G&S was always aimed at the nerd liberal PC crowd (Just look at Felicia Day's twitter, full of liberal retardation), and Erika and Iffy has been linked to the channel since they started streaming in Twitch years ago
Alfgart and? I don't see why any of this makes any difference in the video, just 2 people playing magic.
If for some reason you don't like G&S because of it's 'liberalism' then wouldn't the proper step be not watching it rather than complain about it in the comments? What do you want them to do about it? Fire everyone and make the channel 'to your suiting'?
This is not the first MtG video they did..I think it is the third and they had a show about MtG years back. He is still playing and she stopped years ago...you see I listened to the show.
(Hands a clue)
Found the white supremacist
Get rid of becka scott replace with Will wheaton as host
Nah
