ye
no, see, the point is we're here because we've already watched #1 through #16 and are eager for more awesome content!
but yeah, if you insist, I'll go back to #4 and watch it again :P
@n99 what do you mean by this?
If youre talking about the fact that Prof cant use atogs because theyre expensive, that's not the problem, the problem is that atogs are banned in pauper
@n99 oh...
the sound levels of the background music in the video is way too low?
Pauper Veeeedeo!!! Excited to watch this. They were good games!
Thanks so much for coming and being a part of this!
Pauper Veeeedeo!!!
The VEEEEDEOOO!!! Hahaha you're my favorite content creator!
The new jacket goes really well with the scarf.
Loved seeing you on camera again! You should start a youtube channel or stream on twitch or something.
Thank you so much for having us for this EPIC Pauper game! We’re honored to have shared the table with you and Andrea!
Absolutely 🔥 sleeves btw!!!
WOOH SCRYBABIES
Love the awesome video! Im a huge fan of Tori's card sleeves! What brand are they???
@@Vyndroen I just dug through Google for a while but count find anything. Inspired to have a custom set printed tho
@@Vyndroen I think they’re custom dragon shields! You can print your own designs on their site!
Don't forget. Only an evil mind would take the scarf of an Italian guy whose mother said it suits well to him.
Professor's villain arc continues
All of us Italian boys love our moms. You will never get that scarf.
The thoughtcast IS complicated cause most people dont know that you have to only pay the mana after you anounce the card, so it was good mengucci explained
I did not know that. I recently started playing flesh and blood (thanks prof) and there you announce the card, pitch the mana, pay the cost and finally resolve the spell. Since mtga taps the lands before the spell is announced i thought it worked like that in paper too.
Yep, he "locked in" the cost of it before mana abilities
So you can cast a spell (adding it to the stack)
And activate other abilities before paying its cost? Are mana abilities different than any other activated ability?
I came here for this, and I actually wish he would have been assertive enough to explain announcing the spell before paying its cost. I don't even think the professor fully understood what he was trying to present in rules context.
@@aaroncutbirth2192 No you cannot announce a spell and then do anything else besides activate mana abilities. The best example of this is the card Lions Eye Diamond. The oracle text says you can only activate the card as an instant to discard your hand and add 3 mana. This prevents you from announcing a spell and then using the LED to pay for it.
I think what Andrea meant by “complicated” was that he’s declaring the intention of casting the thoughtcast with 4 artifacts in play, and to pay the cost for the spell is cracking the star for blue, which would make it seem like he only has 3 artifacts but affinity locks in the cost when casting the spell, not when costs are paid. Magic rules are weird and cool!
Can you explain this to me though? You say affinity locks the cost when casting the spell, but he can't cast it without paying its cost, which he couldn't without blue mana. So he's not casting the spell before cracking the star. Much confuso
Oh, the spell goes on stack before paying the cost. Did not know that. Cheers! Learned something new.
This episode made me wanna start playing pauper right now
That’s awesome!
Best and most accessible MTG format imho.
its really fun on mtgo
@@fdsal0 also in paper if it's popular in your country. In Italy it's pretty popular and we have weekly paper tournaments in a couple of LGS in my area. There are also huge events like Paupergeddon that last time in Rome had more than 400 players!
This video definitely has me itching to build and play in Pauper. Any recommendations for a Jund Commander player?...
Came here for the "Is It Worth it to Buy ___" videos as a new player, still around for the fun Shuffle Up and Play videos! Love the works Prof, stay classy!
Glad you like them!
the Prof is always classy.
What he lacks in MTG Skill he makes up for in fashion sens- err... with great jokes! :P
Same! Looking for the time stamp about the cost if the affinity deck...link shows 117$
18:47 "So I take 6 damage going down to 4"
The Show: Gotcha
*proceeds to show 10 -3 -3 = 3*
Also 14-3 combat damage is 11 then 3 damage has it back to 14-3 again
I drew those Dockside Dollar Treasure Tokens! Wow! So cool to see them featured on the channel 🥰
I need those! Hoped someone would mention in the comments where one could get one, didn’t imagine it being the creator!
Is it possible to order some?
47:48 "Rat's unfortunate..." BEST LINE OF THE EPISODE
Right up there with the "Is there any reason you wouldn't pay it as your commander?" Exchange
Andrea's level of smacktalk with the professor is really pro level 😂
Happy to see pauper :). We just had our first succesful pauper event where I live.
That is awesome!
Thanks so much for having us Scrybabies on prof!! We had such a blast 🎉
Kwall en ahmbulance
I wish all players had a clean board like Andrea, it's so well organized
It was killing me seeing the clue token right in the middle of her creatures on game 1 haha
The professor is so hip and cool. I don't know where he learned all that pop and fresh slang. I hope to be that cool one day.
Love mengu, such a Nice guy and great player!
I love the common bit where you bring in a Surprise Guest rather than actually face the winner. Such a good bit.
There is something so mesmerizing about the way Andrea taps his lands... precise and quickly. Can we get an ASMR stream of just Andrea tapping lands 😅😂
Prof: So it's time to play pauper, which color are you going to pl-
Both of them: RED!!
Wild Kohdok appears!
My favorite Shuffle Up and Play video so far. Please bring more pauper decks, prof. It's my favorite format, but it dosen't get the love it deserves.
Come on Mengu! Mop the floor with them all! 😂
Loving this series! Especially the fact that it's not focused only on commander!
I love that you do 1v1 games as well and not commander only!
We love it too!
I think the interaction with affinity (thoughtcast) and chromatic star is not really intuitive unless you have a good understanding of the rules or have played with the mechanic before, it's something I've definitely had to explain to players new to pauper. Makes sense that Andrea was explaining it is all I'm saying
Great episode though! I love pauper
What a fantastic episode. Lovely guests and a great vibe.
This series makes me miss paper magic so much. Damnit Prof, hitting me in the feels 😭
Today's my Birthday and I consider this episode of a fine series a fantastic Birthday gift! Thanks Prof and Co. For this amazing game of Pauper ...
The Jersey girls are great guests! Also my favourite format and some of my fav decks. Great episode
Awesome episode! Tight plays, great guests!
You keep one-upping each episode with somehow even better guests, Mengu showing up is gonna be hard to beat going forward 😝 great episode 🤌
What a great exhibition of Pauper :) would love to see more pauper. Legacy too!
Tori playing my favorite deck Rakdos Madness! Love it.
my favorite Jersey girls! So happy to see the Scrybabies on the channel!
Great to see Pauper content on TCC. It would be great to see more since it used to be a format that you mentioned a lot (and encouraged me to play it - thanks I love it), but haven't heard you talk about it as much recently.
I love the energy you all had! It brightened my mood today.
Not even a minute in and I can tell this will be a fun episode.
The phrase "You feel alive" has never felt so threatening.
Great video! Looking to build a pauper deck, love a good example of what good pauper looks like!
Mengu makes me happy, this episode was a lot fun, all yall are great
I freaking love Mengu I was eagerly anticipating this episode! Can't wait to dig in
Great episode, thanks a lot for introducing me with pauper ! Oh, btw, Mengucci is a great player to see live in action :)
Great episode Prof! I can't wait for the next!
I am here for the Jersey Mike's Crew representation-and for Italians and Italian Americans worldwide!
WE LOVE U
This series means so much to me and so does your channel Professor I hope you never stop being the amazing human you are
Love Andrea. He's my absolute favorite mtg personality hands down.
I don't think the play at 28:22 was so trivial.. but kudos to everyone who got it. :)
I know right? As a new player I feel like I've been taught "You have to tap your mana sources before casting spells" But apparently you can do it as part of casting a spell?
@@Coldmaj you announce the spell, and then costs for it are calculated. Since it has affinity and sees four artifacts, it is reduced by four generic mana. Then you pay the costs, at which point the reduction is locked in, and you can sacrifice your artifacts to filter/generate the mana needed to pay for the spell.
Loved that Mengu didn't assume everyone knew that, I tend to also explain it to my opponents even when there's no indication they wouldn't know, because it is a rather tricky interaction and some people find it odd.
It's like how the old "damage on stack" rule worked, except now it's "cost on stack" in a way. I expect it might eventually go the same way that rule did, sometime in the future.
It was kinda trivial now but it was a point of contention in the past all the way up to the professional /pro tour level. They change the ruling on casting/annoucement of casting a few times ended up with how it is now.
The first pauper episode is my favorite episode of shuffle up and play love to see more pauper being played.
Andrea is the face of magic for me, together with Reid Duke they are just the 2 most handsome guys for me. Always fun to watch, always high class and entertaining.
So good to see Affinity is back!
This format is very cool❤
Wonderful to see some pauper content!
I love Pauper! I am happy to see it showcased more on YT!
More Pauper the better. Loved this episode
That first game was fantastic!
Nice video, cool guests! Prof has such a good sense of humor.
big up to the editors only getting better every episode!
This was amazing. I don’t even play pauper (or any 60 card magic). I really enjoyed this game despite not knowing the format.
Great format and great guests🤍💙
how comes that every Shuffle Up & Play episode is more amazing than the last one and on top of that we always get an even spicier preview of the following episode?
I am already looking forward the next play!
Grande Andrea! super fun episode
47:48
That face says "I'm gonna tell this joke no matter the outcome of the play". Great episode and great guest!
Pauper is such a nice format to watch. The cards are simpler and easier to follow. Also I know some of them, since I could afford them back then.
What a Wonderful episode! I love Mengu! I love Tori! I love Lua! Professor, yeah he is cool too. :)
This was SUCH a fun watch
I made a Rakdos Burn deck and a 4 color Sliver deck for Pauper and have had a blast playing both. It’s a great format when you can find time and people to play with.
Man I have got to build some pauper decks at some point, this format always looks like a blast.
Yesssss Nothing like an Early Shuffle Up and play!
Stellar episode, pauper really is my favorite! Very interesting decks, I myself run a version of that monoblack control deck eheh, and I have a boros artifacts one too 8) Thanks for the good work on this series!
Awesome games! Pauper looks like so much fun.
Hahaha, awesome episode! Thank you everyone.
Love this episode! Less comander more any other format. Saludos desde argentina
Just built my pauper cube 🙂 looking forward to getting it drafted.
Would also love to try constructed...I feel like commander, limited/cube, and pauper are the three formats I enjoy playing.
I love how some of the cards here are very new (that Baldur’s Gate artifact animator is incredible), while some are very old (Blue Elemental Blast from the past). Truly an eternal format for everyone.
I love affinity so much. My fav pauper deck. Card draw go brrrr
Great episode. Definitely my favorite of the series so far. Maybe because I’m a big Pauper fan but also because the trash talk was more good natured. Sometimes I find the back and forth in other episodes a little off putting.
Really nice to see Shaman in this episode. You should get the og Alliances art, it's beautiful!
"Prof Dust" I'm dying
Great showing for Pauper! I would love to watch a Legacy episode (one with true competitive play). Brian from BoshNRoll vs Phil from ThrabenU would be epic!
The most smartly dressed man I‘ve ever seen, and in the background the professor!
Excellent duels. The decks shown demonstrate an interesting level of strategy 😎🤙. I am more oriented towards red with an inclination to black but prefer red specially a red goblin mono red deck or a deck with the majority of sorceries and instants (with direct damage abilities) and a few creatures that do direct damage 😎🤙
LOVE the intro animation, Prof!!
The best format!
Ooo RK post did those blood token .? Nice i got a foil arbor elf signed by rk on my first modern tourny 4 years ago :3 love it.
Thanks Prof for another episode. :3
Prof looks spectacular today!
Pauper is one of the two best Format, it really has its own charm
Love watching Mengu!
The castle in the sky card sleeves are 👌🏻
The jacket actually looks really good
Infinitokens ought to sponsor you, because you've sold me on them. I'm going to buy some with some Christmas money.
Those blood token from RK post look crazy good, I just bought a bunch for myself. I wish they did the same kind of playmat design
this was such a good matches!
I love pauper! Might be my favourite format to play competitive constructed magic without too much powercreep
Seeing my friends on Tolarian Community College is what brings me hope in this world. And NJ family represents
The stakes the drama très magnifique
Amonkhet came out the year I started playing. Looks like I'm a long-time player now! I have long awaited this day. 😁😄😃😀
I love pauper. Would love to see someone try out mono white devotion deck. Made a deck list somewhere long time ago, and it's an absolute power house!
Great guests and atmosphere here. This is some my favorite content you are producing right now! Keep up the great work and shining a light on the pauper format!
Now do Pauper Commander !
That's basically what the next episode is gonna be, because having a deck under 100$ is tough.
That Rakdos deck looks like a ton of fun, might be time to try and get my group to play Pauper
