    There should be an enchantment called Tax Evasion that just lets you ignore paying prices on on your opponent's cards

    Super fun game to watch. Glad that all three decks showcased their main strategies. Though have to say it, it saddens me how games these days are becoming more and more centered around-and impacted by-cards like Smothering Tithe, Rhystic Study, Dockside Extortionist, Esper Sentinel etc...Gets to a point where the games aren't that different from each other.

    • @Hexatomb
      @Hexatomb Před rokem +9

      Truth. Too many "staples" define the game more than the deck's purpose.

    • @RunninOnYT
      @RunninOnYT Před rokem +4

      I agree with you, quite a lot. It can really tilt the game to one players flavour. And it doesn't help that some so not care about others boadstate. As in having rhystic, drawing extra cards etc. Like no wonder they run off with the game when you feed them.
      And yeah thats one of the reasons I barerly play any of them, nor do I really play tutors. I'd rather draw cards instead. I think I run one demonic tutor in one deck, rhystic study in another and esper sentinel in a third. But thats me, I def do play a few of them. I just don't wsnt things to get too homogenized and like in this case, quite taxing.

      I get your point, but if you want to win you need to get more resources than your opponents, so it's only natural that cards that provide a lot of value end up being more important than the cards that make you win. You can only put so many win conditons or synergies in your deck, you won't be able to play them unless you have enough mana / draw enough cards.

    I've gotta say my favorite horror/halloween themed commander has to be Tovolar. He was the Werewolf/wolf commander we needed and is so fun to play. As well, Werewolves have always been my favorite horror movie monster. So finally getting to build a proper deck of the creature type was a dream come true

  • @apex8927
    @apex8927 Před rokem +6

    Nethroi, Apex of death is my favorite spooky commander. it's the first card I got from the ikoria set and I came in second in draft at my local lGS with it.

  • @cooldes4593
    @cooldes4593 Před rokem +12

    I believe the demon player seems to have completely forgotten he attacked with rakdos lord of riots during his turn, and over payed for ever single creature he cast. He might have honestly won the game that turn with the double dockside triggers.

    • @AndrewEarlPate
      @AndrewEarlPate Před rokem +1

      Even with that, he generated 28 treasures and Demonic Tutored like 4 times in one turn and still ended the turn at the lowest life total and with the weakest board state. The deck seems to function well as a shell (and is very cool), but he really needs to work on better payloads. It's fine if your meta doesn't want combos that win on the spot with Sneak Attack + Razaketh + a ton of mana such as Oracle/Consult or Mikaeus/Triskelion, but you shouldn't be running that kind of engine at all if you can't do more with it than this.

    • @infernalspectre
      @infernalspectre Před rokem +1

      He sacced Rakdos to Razaketh for a search, so no he didn't overpay. As soon as Rakdos isn't on the battlefield he doesn't reduce the casting cost.

    @TheMightyBattleSquid Před rokem +3

    The game should've ended by 9:06 lol
    Matt literally had the ability to tutor up WHATEVER he wanted, pay 1 mana to get TWO of any demon, dealt TWICE each copy's power to any target, on top of all of them having haste from the sneak attack and molten echo. Forgetting to put the tokens on the board is one thing but he could've won even without that. There were just TOO MANY cascading advantages between dockside, the tutors, sneak attack, and echos.

    if that belakor deck had a rite of replication, at exactly 7:15 instead of casting molten echoes you couldve sacrificed dockside extortionist to grab a rite of replication and then sneak attacked in runescarred demon to tutor any counterspells, couldve won right there with a 150 dmg belakor etb nuke

    @hcgneophyte Před rokem +4

    fun game. do you consider the 4 decks showcased to be high powered edh decks ? maybe not to the point of really high end tuned cedh decks but around 7 8 or 9 ?

  • @JACKSONPRYORBENNETT
    @JACKSONPRYORBENNETT Před rokem +2

    Be’lakor (sp?…) seems sick. Are there any mono blue demons? Dimir? The only grixis ones I know of are him and Xandy. There must be some outside of mono black and rakdos right?

    • @Ray-ws6rk
      @Ray-ws6rk Před rokem +2

      There are a few that were released in the new 40k precons. The two mono blue ones I know of (because I use them) are Lord of Change and Heralds of Tzeentch. Then there are a few izzet demons but I'm not sure of their names.

    Didn't think CHandler would be able to do much once Dane was darksteeled but he managed to nt only stay in it but win it!

    @SaltyProductionsHD Před rokem +2

    Rhystic Study and Smothering Tithe win games on top of being super annoying. Given how pervasive they are in the format and how “unfun” they are, I think they potentially meet the criteria to be worth a ban.

    • @anthonymadrid6388
      @anthonymadrid6388 Před rokem +7

      I disagree. While this game did have a metric ton of triggers, it’s important to know they aren’t paid for. Just my opinion though
