    I'd love a series of Cam, Kathleen and a guest to do a rough summary of Magic story.

    • @CasualKing21
      @CasualKing21 Před rokem +4

      That'd be a cool idea for a special, extra long 500th episode!

    • @DeSaxofoonVanPeter

      To give them a headstart: 'Once upon a time there were some brothers who fought over some rocks and because of that now millennia later we're all leaking oil from our orifices.'

      @starwarsthx1138_ Před rokem +2

      I was just coming here to see if we could get some sort of series about all of the Magic Lore because I started playing in Ice Age and then didn't really play again until like Ravnica Alleginces/War of the Spark time frame so I really don't have a clue what is going on Lore wise and feel like there's so much lore I can't catch up....

    I definitely want to see more Kathleen and Cameron talking about lore! Story recaps, old lore summaries, talking about how good the Ixalan stories were! I love some lore and would like some more.

    20:00 Kaito is the one who says "I just hope she died" in regards to Nahiri after she crashes the arena down on the basilica. Elspeth gives him a look.

      A planeswalking Florida Man.

  • @pytawidmo
    @pytawidmo Před rokem +47

    I love this summary of Lukka:
    _gets compleated because he wanted to pet a phyrexian dog or something_
    - "Praetor Vorinclex, we have caught Lukka, the planeswalker, he has been compleated!"
    - "Ugh, did you have to?"

    • @tomneilson9501
      @tomneilson9501 Před rokem +2

      the part that makes it funny is that lukka was right
      he successfully bonds with the ruin, but to use his magic goes "hey make sure i dont fall off"
      then his dog stabs him to pieces

  • @BladedCreed
    @BladedCreed Před rokem +72

    Is Cameron’s mic okay? His audio seems to super drop randomly

    • @migueletcetc
      @migueletcetc Před rokem +3

      If there was an audio technician around maybe they were messing around trying to get rid of the crunch in the audio.

    • @Dataloss484
      @Dataloss484 Před rokem +8

      Most of the time it was when he turned too far away from the mic to face Kathleen. I think the mic placement was just not ideal. I have noticed that this seems to be a common problem when Cameron is on these shows. He is a soft spoken person and doesn't always rember to speak perfectly into the mic.

    • @EmmettMcMullan
      @EmmettMcMullan Před rokem +5

      I noticed it too and I'm not sure that it was just because of him turning his head away; it doesn't layer perfectly over him changing the angle of his vocal production and it doesn't sound like the natural cadence of a speaker's production volume dipping. It sort of drops in a plunging artificial curve like there was a problem with a noise gate feature or something on the audio recording/encoding

  • @noahdaglio9362
    @noahdaglio9362 Před rokem +4

    To me, the reason the Glistening Oil is seemingly overcharged is due to Jin Gitax making some tweaks after learning how to Compleat planeswalkers. The upgrade likely happened a couple days prior to the story at most

  • @Chooch1080
    @Chooch1080 Před rokem +19

    I'd like to see a "Vorthos Corner" of some sort with these two and maybe an uninitiated person like Beej.

    • @Chooch1080
      @Chooch1080 Před rokem +2

      My biggest question has been. What is the Ur-Dragon doing? Period. Like all this crazy shit is happening in the multiverse. The Ur-Dragon canonically sees all of space and time. And it is doing.....nothing? Sleeping? Idk and it seems super unlikely. But I'd love for the Phyrexians to "wake the sleeping bear" that is the Ur-Draon. Much like Urza and Mishra "woke" Yawgmoth.

  • @CJ-by2dt
    @CJ-by2dt Před rokem +29

    This was fantastic. Please continue to do so, I will dongle the bongle for these episodes. (Also, I'd kill for a "flashback" version of this for your personal favorite story entries from the before times. Yes I just want more people to talk about Alesha's story.)

    • @Dunnston170
      @Dunnston170 Před rokem

      Oh, retrospective episodes would be amazing! Especially for parts of the story that are Cam/Kathleen's favorite parts.

  • @olly123451
    @olly123451 Před rokem +7

    Please keep up with these! As someone with ADHD, trying to read the story in so many pieces makes my brain melt, so I really appreciate these recaps in the absence of the stories being available as an audiobook.

  • @jgmweston
    @jgmweston Před rokem +9

    Would love to see more lore episodes for future sets! Makes me honestly more interested in playing Magic and appreciate the flavour of the cards a lot more.

  • @tzarl
    @tzarl Před rokem +8

    I loved this! I agree with Cam, I like when the stories are more character focused which is why I tend to like the side stories a bunch more since they are usually one-and-done character explorations that don't need to hit all the plot points of an entire novel. I would love to see maybe more conversation from you two about the side stories too, either as their own episode or as part of a full set story episode of TCC, since I think those would be the kind of stories you two would like to gush more about.

  • @Godsmasherbot
    @Godsmasherbot Před rokem +6

    I would absoluteley tune in to more of Kathleen and Cam summarize magic lore

  • @RedClaw87
    @RedClaw87 Před rokem +3

    The best stories make you feel things.
    Being hurt by characters being compleated might be a good thing, if written well.
    I was especially hurt seeing the Slobad card.

    @ashecrimson2812 Před rokem +8

    I for one really hope you guys do more of these in the future, I so rarely have time to read the articles for myself as busy as I am, and it hurts my vorthos heart lmao

  • @grafikpapst
    @grafikpapst Před rokem +1

    Lukka being Compleated being a cunning plan would be a real "handing Deadpool to the Borg" kinda moment. Imagine Lukka just finds a way to assert his stupidity on all of Phyrexia and turns them into imbeciles.
    Also, yes, please more Magic-Stories discussion videos. This was great.

  • @sankethbhaskar4236
    @sankethbhaskar4236 Před rokem +1

    After reading this story I now get why Urza decided on soul bombs rather than trusting a group of 9 planeswalkers not to devolve into in-fighting on a multiverse-or-death mission.

  • @1mrGhost
    @1mrGhost Před rokem +1

    I do like lore. I also like having podcasts of people from LRR hanging out and talking about stuff they like. So this podcast has been a total win for me :)

  • @mhutt333
    @mhutt333 Před rokem +1

    Cameron's idea around the 48 minute mark was very novel.

  • @Jay-yr9oi
    @Jay-yr9oi Před rokem +2

    If some combo of The Wanderer, Kaito, Kaya, and Tyvar become the new faces of the game for a bit, I'd be fine with that (and, as a blue player, Teferi coming up more and Tezzeret become the next lingering bad guy before the next big bad, I wouldn't complain). Also, I enjoyed having real stakes, but, if anything happens to the mechanical origami tanuki, I will riot.

  • @LexYeen

  • @sienka511
    @sienka511 Před rokem +2

    Just adding my vote to more of these lore streams. its really fun and interesting learning about what's going on in the sets. The asides to how they tie into previous sets and storylines are also a lot of fun for someone who only got into magic in the last few years.

  • @ACBryan132
    @ACBryan132 Před rokem +1

    Loved the recap of the story and hearing y'alls thought on where it might be heading.

  • @9clawtiger
    @9clawtiger Před rokem +4

    I appreciate these lore updates because I don't get story updates anywhere else. I'm just a little too disconnected from the game, in my casual enjoyment, for them to reach my ears normally.
    I have not understood what's going on in the story probably since Kaldheim.

  • @toxicgaming003
    @toxicgaming003 Před rokem +2

    I'd love a lore recap/rehash series, despite myself having used this as my first TTC video watched. I am fairly new to MTG and MTG Lore, thanks mainly in part to the first D&D set, and trying to catch up in reading the books has been a struggle. I didn't even know until this set that there were web stories. So, if more podcast-esque lore recaps and even going back to the beginning of MTG lore were to happen, I'm in.

  • @blastedman
    @blastedman Před rokem +4

    @raleighpentecost7684 Před rokem +2

    This was awesome! Loved that you folks got the opportunity to do this. I hope it can happen again

  • @KirbytronicWouldLiketoBattle

    I certainly enjoyed this and the Strixhaven story talkabouts and would happily listen to more :)
    I think that Lukka's honestly a pretty good example of why you don't see more stupid planeswalkers. They need to have some level of intelligence (or at least, you know, some amount of instinct to keep themselves alive) or they planeswalk to Ixalan and try and make friends with Galta

  • @lillimack2131

    Oh my gosh. I would love to have these people just slowly explain magics lore to me, because I absolutely adore it, but I absolutely do NOT have time to accumulate it into any kind of coherentness. In short, more of these streams would be AMAZING

  • @Guevon_Pajaro
    @Guevon_Pajaro Před rokem

    I plan to read more, but with little time for it atm, I really appreciate you guys giving your recap that I can listen to passively! I'm intrigued but it has always seemed daunting to read and catch up

  • @evandill
    @evandill Před rokem +1

    As someone who had dipped out of the magic story after WAR and is only tenuously connected to the story now;
    this a good recap about ONE, and it reminds me what I liked and didn't like about the magic web fiction. I definitely think they got gun shy about doing books after the WAR kerfuffle but I think them doing books in addition to web fiction would be a good move as like a lore directors cut.
    I appreciate this recap even though I'm personally not interested in getting deep deep back into magic story. I'd definitely like a more regular "Hey here's a 'quick' but not exhaustive summary of this set" maybe not for every set but just the bigger ones, the smaller once can get a "here's this set's vibes" review.

    I'm 100% here for more episodes of Cam+Kathleen talking lore, as many as you'd like to make! As a suggestion for the future, I'd love if you gave a little more context for things; I felt like some aspects could be confusing for people who haven't read it themselves.
    Also, I am definitely of the opinion that Jace was right in blowing up the sylex and I'm SO HAPPY you guys think so too! #TeamJace #JaceWasRight #JusticeforJace #Jacetice

    I love when people smarter than me discuss Magic story and digest it in words in ways I can understand without condescension
    A small note though, in the beginning of the episode, you mentioned that there will be links to the stories in the description, and , unless I'm *utterly* blind, they're not there

  • @janmelantu7490
    @janmelantu7490 Před rokem +1

    I think Elspeth is going to ascend to old-walker-level power as she absorbs the sylex blast. Angels are generally collections of mana from a plane, and don’t usually have souls for a spark. But Capennan angels seem to need to ascend to angelhood. Old Walkers’ bodies were projections of mana from their spark. Coincidence? I think NOT!

      @bobthegamingtaco6073 Před rokem

      Honestly what that novel needed was 1 person on the actual creative team to read the book BEFORE it was too late to make changes, because it certainly seemed like everyone who knew the lore was busy, and author just got the cliffnotes of the existing lore

    When talking about the length of the story, it was mentioned having a book for the guys that want all the lore, and a shorter web novel for the people who are less invested, and didn’t they do that for the war of the spark and I recall that being a neat way to be able to have a good way to be able to view the story from both angles

    Seanan McGuire was the author for the main story, she’s done some of the side stories before and she’s always a fantastic author. Love her writing.
    Of note, Tibalt is confirmed dead dead. Seanan mentioned on Tumblr that she wanted Tyvar to have some catharsis after Kaldheim’s story, and double confirmed permadeath was allowed with WotC. So Tibalt’s splat is final.

    This was super great! I love reading all stories as they come out, but it's super cool to see people nerding out on things I like to nerd out on.
    Also, I would love to see Lukka somehow being something like a last phyrexian after all of this and refusing to make more phyrexians because he's like "they are not as good as I am, so they don't deserve it. Humpf"

    One thing I wish they'd explained was how these planeswalkers could just be compleated walking around New Phyrexia. Like, in the past, that was the thing with Karn. His spark left him immune to the oil he carried, and it was losing his spark that allowed him to succumb to the oil in the old story, and giving him a new spark basically cures him. With Tamiyo, it took Jin-Gitaxias and the reality chip to compleat her, not just leaving her on New Phyrexia for a long time (hence, Koth not being compleated). But, now, Nahiri, Jace, and Vraska can just be compleated by too much contact with the oil?
    Also, I really hope they don't end the story with there being some was to "cure" phyresis. Like, I don't think any of them could be physically healed, but, I could see there being something about them being planeswalkers that there's something of them still in there that allows them to be brought back to their old selves mentally (they sort of hinted at this in the Texxeret story in BRO), but, I hope they don't do that, and that little bit of hope was justleft there so they had something to crush.
