Happy to have discovered your channel. Great voice. Great game play. I like some editing - that sets you apart. I watched one match before making this comment - I like text images being added during game play, not so much zooming in or camera tilts. It will take time to find the right balance. Lots of potential - happy that you put yourself out there! I couldn't do it! Look forward to more videos!

[@JamesKisau]

Thank you so much for the support! And your sentiments seem to be what the creative team over here also concluded; do away with anything distracting, keep some subtle humor in. It'll only get better from here!

Lol the Blood Moon in M2 got me

[@JamesKisau]

I'm so glad someone caught that!

Hi, Teddy, I always feel like your channel is way bigger, since I've been here for some of your first uploads and your content is just peak control content :) I actually commented from mobile, but it seems my commentary was lost somewhere... I have two questions for you, so please answer just the first one, if these are too many :) 1) I'm kind of brewing Pauper Grixis Control right now and wanted to ask what do you feel like are the things to have in mind, when constructing a Grixis Control shell comnpared to UW, UB or Bant? Feel free to stay in the confines of Legacy, if you feel like that's where your expertise is :) 2) How did you end up with your exact Mana base? It looks really clean and I totally get the 2 Island, 2 Swamp + 1 Mountain, but why do you split your fetches the way you do, why the UB Surveil land and not BR, why 2 Badlands and just 1 Volcanic? I sincerely appreciate your channel and consider becoming a patreon :) Keep the good content coming and have a beautiful day :)

[@JamesKisau]

Thank you so much for your support! These are some great questions; thanks for making the upcoming Q&A more interesting

@@philippsemlinger2220 thank you!!

Would adding orcish settlers to destroy opponent lands be a good idea?

[@JamesKisau]

I think the card is a little expensive for what it does but I do like the Kolaghan's Command synergy. I've played Fulminator Mage on the channel before for the same reason and it really wasn't that bad!

[@TNN402]

Bolt editing was hilarious, not a big fan of the voice edits personally though. Q&A fuel if you still need it: Do you play any other games in your spare time? If so, which? (Could be video games, tabletop, outdoors type stuff, etc)

[@JamesKisau]

Thanks for the question! I'll definitely include it in the video. And I appreciate the feedback! It definitely got pretty deranged

[@brycehansen88]

whats your favorite book what is your favorite book series favorite funny movie do you have this deck in paper and do you play at an LGS?

[@JamesKisau]

Tight thanks for single-handedly giving me enough material for the video 😇

[@jordanlshort1]

Maybe a little too heavy on the smash cuts and audio samples etc. It sometimes makes it seem like you are trying to point out something that I don't think you are. Other than that great stuff though.

[@JamesKisau]

Thanks for the feedback! And thanks for sticking with me for this experimental phase. I'm committed to nailing the right tone 😀

[@brycehansen88]

funniest mtgo moment? favorite type of food? do you cook food often?

[@JamesKisau]

These are good ones! Funny MTGO moments certainly underrated

[@maximuscesar]

That opponent using shoot the sheriff is pretty weird, a lot of stuff you would want to hit are rogues. Go for the throat misses just dreadnought which you can get with fatal push anyway so, the best "doom blade" in legacy is go for the throat. Anyway, you play so well that all the time I want to play this deck. It is tough though.

[@JamesKisau]

Ah yeah that's a good point. It's not the first time I've seen the card, trophy leader Flossed was also on it, but I think Go for the Throat has been more common overall. And thank you so much! I hope the matches are useful.

[@ashlynwoods8464]

saga construct tokens are relevant for gfft too, also painter's servant

[@gileswebinger8147]

Favorite magic card?

[@JamesKisau]

This is a good one!

[@LovelyAndyy]

Love your content, but the editing is a bit too much. Especially the audio, it’s extremely jarring and waaaay louder than your regular voice.

[@JamesKisau]

Thanks for the feedback! I had a feeling I went too far this time 😅 I'll find a balance

[@QuodEraDemonstrandum]

exactly what I wanted to say +1

[@LovelyAndyy]

@@JamesKisau All good man! I don't have the time to play mtgo and you playing my beloved grixis control is my final touchstone to Magic. Keep up the great work.

[@JamesKisau]

@@LovelyAndyy I really appreciate it and comments like these are super helpful for me to figure out the best creative approach for the content. It's all taken into consideration!
