Shout out to Cleveland! I grew up in Shaker. Where can I get magic cards in CLE?

How the series went might explain why both going 0-3 and being a mistake away from winning the match might have been a correct assessment in the recap

Love these videos, really a nostalgia trip (I started at 4th ed)

One of my favorite sets in terms of its tone and darkness.

just dropping a comment at around 12 minutes of watching that I already liked and subscribed a few minutes ago because THIS is the type of history/lore/vibes and reflection content we didn't know we were so thirsty for 😎

As a kid, i bought a ton of chronicles. The packs were only 2 bucks after all.... I was very happy with the cards i got in the packs. I remember those rips fondly

I honestly only have 1 Fabiano story, and it wasn’t pleasant. Of all the pros I have played over the years, he was the only one who tilted off and became very rude and disrespectful.

lol, it's funny listening to this, while sitting in a tent. I'm living the whole summer in a tent, I'm working as a host at a hike in campsite. 10'x10' canvas tent with a solar power setup, I'm spending the summer riding mtb and hiking, it's a blast.

Its funny how easily so many people on the "left" so casually drop racisms. Patrick does not think that people of colour are capable of camping and him feeling free enough to put his views for everyone to see is youtube is frankly disturbing.

But you can’t hike indoors!

Love Patrick turning into Shaq going "who goes camping, Chuck? Who goes camping?"

Never been camping and I don't intend to change that, for all the same reasons they listed. I'll happily pay more to be in a hotel.

Camping is for alcohol, drugs, and boys and girls to do stuff without parental supervision. It only makes sense when you're 16-20.

to me the best thing in the world is being at home. and if i want to go out doors walk around the block or park or a local empty school on the week end. i've done my fair share of exploring as a trucker.

Pro Tour New Orleans... I have been to NOLA twice. Once for pro tour tinker, and another for fun. Both times, a friend of mine was shot in the buttocks oddly enough.

"How white are you?" Rolling in the woods, shooting guns, starting fires, and sleeping in tents sounds awesome.

A lot of the really nice camping gear is to cajole partners less interested to going, I find. I love sleeping on the ground, but many girlfriends have not. Patrick is right its a simulator for a better life we'll never have.

American wimps! Try camping in Australia.

This video just made my day ❤ much needed joy!! Being in nature is good for the soul

🤣

You guys are too funny haha This one cracked me up Yeahhhhh I’m not a fan of the bugs outside on those hot days 😅

I like camping because it is cheaper than a hotel by about a 1/4 the price sometimes more

There is a reason to do it, but none of what Cedric said he was doing with his friends helps ere. The point of going into nature is that it does actually have positive effects on our mental health, but the more you remind yourself of "civilization" the less it helps, so they were definitely doing it wrong.

Patrick's laugh at his own question is the most pure reaction since his first look at Ravenous Chupacabra

These episode's have been so fun. One thing I think you guys could've mentioned is that things like the old mulligan rule affecting Black Vise. Also mana burn affecting things like the Urza lands, and Su-Chi.

when Abayence first came out it was the hottest card in MTG..originally it worked like it was a white Timewalk and the opponent could not even tap lands so it completely shut down the opponent for a turn..it was trading at like 50-100 dollars until WOTC did an errata on the card and said you can tap lands and still cast creatures then it plummeted in price over night..I’m surprised this was not discussed more..there was so much hype over this card..my friend traded 25 abeyance for an unlimited mox sapphire before it went down..this should have been more of a topic..also a little surprised Benelish Knight wasn’t mentioned as it’s the first creature you could play at instant speed..no mention of Thundermare or Goblin bomb…2 is way too low of a grade..you had to be playing at a high level at the time to really understand it’s effect on MTG..it’s more of a 5 grade

I've been playing Shandalar recently and some of the cards from the two-player starter are now very familiar to me :D

Vise and Rack are both "Continuous Artifacts," and in 1995 Icy Manipulator could turn them off. (Rule change was not until 1999.) Although there is something to be said for playing cards are they work now, both of these decks had a main deck answer to the opponent's wincon. These games should have been longer and more miserable.

It's called X now. Not twitter

I enjoy the story times so far. You could do another segment called the ReReadables and goin more in depth into the lore for each set 😆

It's funny Patrick mentioned Marolk Rosewaters design philosophy. Look where the game is today haha

Btw... Cedric responded to power sink with incinerate. You can't do that my dude. Power sink is an interrupt. NICE TRY!!!

Mark Justices deck was fire that year too, he played a red artifact control and splashed green. I'm sure he had a good run with it! Henry Sterns was pretty similar too, although he had different lines.

Rain of daggers is no joke

I know I'm a bit late to the party here, but seeing some of these old decklists with that much LD and that few lands makes me... suspicious. As unreasonable as it may seem to suspect the *unimpeachable* integrity of the mid-late 90's Magic player, I fear you may not have played these games entirely "accurately". Much like period appropriate all-American heroes Barry Bonds and Mark McGuire, some of these numbers may make more sense with the involvement of a Balanced Breakfast. Like, you mentioned the decks being better if the SB's were just 15 basics, but maybe they were just keeping a few basics in the other *other* sideboard, you know?

All these’s years I’ve been wondering what Serra’s Angel’s wheenie lookes like. Amazed how woke and inclusive they were back in the day, ahead of their time. Kuddo’s!

I always loved you guys with the SCG covering and came across this show because I always watch BoshNRoll, love the show guys!

The lore doesn’t say anything about the significance of Mox Diamond

This is my surprised face that Patrick Sullivan did not pick Spike Feeder as coolest card in the set, a tournament staple against mono red aggro decks...

I actually disagree about City of Brass in that Starter deck. I think that's the *perfect* place to put 1 copy of City of Brass. Assuming the new player plays a few games with that deck, they're gonna have the wrong basics for their spells a bunch of the time. Then they'll realize, when they have City of Brass, they *always* have the color they need, and paying 1 life each time they need it is almost always worth it.

Uhh the Boa holds the Bonesplitter with it's tail, duhhh

Remember buying homelands and ice age packs for under $1.50, fallen empire packs for around $0.50. The dark and revised were still standard 2.5ish. Yeah they were underpowered but you could tell overprinted. Even mirage was overprinted and you could get at times for under $1 a pack. Star wars had similar issues with unlimited and cloud city

1:17:03 they should make a commander legal only card where if you make a haiku with flavor text on the beginning of your upkeep you win the game

Thawing Glaciers was so good in Draw Go mirrors.

patrick deadass looking like a whig parliamentarian from 1840s britain.

Side board out hymn to turach?! 😢

Cedric has such a smooth shuffle

A lot of people saying Fallen Empires, but I’m going to disagree. As sets from that time period go, it’s probably among the more playable. Very little removal, but at least there are plenty of creatures and they’re mostly not terrible on rate. Compare that to the draftability of a set like Antiquities or The Dark; just full of stuff that doesn’t do anything.

No hate-love for Alara Reborn? or even the Alara all-foil packs?

Coldsnap, Fallen Empires (2x for card count), Saviors of Kamigawa. if we stick with sets designed to be drafted, replace the Fallen Empires packs with Rise of the Eldrazi becuase like Coldsnap it doesn't work well unless it's all 3 packs For anyone who hasn't ever tried to draft Fallen Empires: Thallids is the only viable archetype and there is zero removal
