Anything Goes! | Commander Clash S16 E21

[@MTGGoldfishCommander]

Just a heads up: this episode was recorded before we banned Glacial Chasm and Field of the Dead (we had to record an episode ahead because our editor was away on vacation). Don't worry, they are still banned.

[@Conklebot]

Lol this just means that Richard plays both of those lands this game

[@Snowfox11]

I figured when y'all said 'Anything Goes'...😊😅

[@chadjehebej2258]

Where can i find your banlist?

[@DaPsychocat]

I mean... It's anything goes, isn't it ?

[@howwegrowcanna]

Seth I love and support you buddy but please for the love of god stop making those cringy faces lol. I say it with love lol

[@urnow2986]

Hey, If Phil seeming down about comments was just a bit, then feel free to ignore this, but I legitimately love having his brand of humor and deck building on the show.

[@KadeoOConnell-tk3qj]

Yeah, he is refreshing just unabashed value at all times lol.

[@ben_clifford]

I LOVE Phil being on this channel

[@BrewersKitchen]

🙏

[@FirstContactX]

@@BrewersKitchen I also LOVE Phil being on the channel. The humor and unwavering dedication to value always makes my day.

[@TMidander]

Same, I love seeing him on :)

[@spacesquid4298]

I love when Phil said "It's Simicing time", and Simiced all over the place

[@kurowasanabe]

Phil being bad at Cascade is one of my favorite running gags.

[@BrewersKitchen]

🥲

[@TargetPractice792]

Seth's deck had that DOG in it The Dog in question: Academy Manufactor

[@breaky92]

seth truly is the master of gaslighting. has twice the mana of everyone else after casting open the way, but acts like nothing is scarier than a phased out power 2 ryu

[@StingRay0000]

at this point it must be satire

[@Verlajn11]

Seth and Richard are a bit ridiculous these days with politics

[@skykur]

It may look like gaslighting from Seth, but I think he’s being honest. Seth’s “poker face” isn’t very good, it actually doesn’t exist. If he doesn’t have an answer in hand, he never pretends like he does. So it’s my theory that if he is diverting attention away, he truly is vulnerable (in his eyes).

[@donovansweet5483]

@@Verlajn11 It's because Crim keeps going for it and letting the sand bagging roll

[@TheWoelrat]

@@skykur I feel he is really Selfish. Phil will admit when he is the problem, and with Richard you can tell he doesn't mean it when he says people shouldn't be worried about what he is doing. Seth on the other hand just complains that others should clear his problem while he wants to continue drawing cards and ramping, as was shown by the Mesmeric Orb. And also at the end still holding on to that he was just making dogs and snacks instead of admitting its ust another flavor of ramp and draw.

[@ManaPirate]

This was so much fun to watch. Laughing along at the "dog" deck had me in stitches. The genuine enjoyment from an anything goes style decks really shone through

[@Beam_on_team]

Richard: "don't play cards that draw you lots of heat but don't immediately win you the game because people will kill you for it" Also Richard: *Plays mesmeric orb*

[@lVideoWatcherl]

I'll echo the sentiment commented often: playing like this is a far superior viewing experience than playing on mtgo. Was a fun round ^^

[@warrioraidan]

It was funny to watch Seth burn through those clues like they were Scooby Snacks.

[@marsrocks247]

How can someone resolve open the way for 4 lands and not be considered archenemy of the table for *literally* the rest of the *entire* game, no matter what? I feel your pain Crim, Seth is a dirty dirty player.

[@burningpapersun1]

Seth's dog deck is just tomer's vampire deck in disguise.

[@mashedmentality]

I’m sorry Phil but having to take out Counterspell to stop from cascading into it is absolutely hilarious

[@Chuubii]

spoiler >When Richard is alive: We gotta stop Crim! That hadouken danage (it was 2) >When Richard is dead: Haha, pathetic 3 hadouken damage

[@nicolusebrink9997]

Ah yes. 13 min in the poor boy Seth has only one Goose (and twice as many lands as everybody else) which means its mean to attack him.

[@codyv55]

Did anyone else notice Seth would say “I’m going to cast Scooby and create shaggy” (27:20)” which leads me to ask the following question. Seth is shaggy the dog or the human?

[@MTGGoldfishCommander]

Yes

[@LordoftheSandwiches]

I'm down with that idea Crim. Build all the street fighter commanders.

[@AndrewRingle]

Crim: does literally nothing, playing a deck with a trash commander Seth: casually ramps for 12 on turn 4 Everyone: "oh god crims gonna get us! How can we hope to survive against him??"

[@thegeardude]

This was making me laugh so hard, I was just like, “How are they, Mostly Seth and Richard, gaslighting themselves into RYU being a Avengers level threat” 😂😂

[@Shotgungunshot1]

Oh Crim no… No don’t pronounce Ryu like that…

[@lobo-xs6kd]

Definitely on purpose along with hadooken

[@miguelfonseca2400]

Oh, thank you! I went through the whole video correcting them every time they said Ri-U hahaha

[@nathanwrennmn]

Phil with the surprise Simic deck 🤣

[@reaperfoursixfiveoh9329]

The man knows what he likes

[@cloudroth6]

The irony of Phil killing Richard because of wrath's to only be fareweled immediately after

[@camdenharper7244]

I love how Phil is always playing blue, the color of answers, but never has the answer

[@koolaiddude7685894]

Im starting to fear that Bear is actually just a robot dog in Seth's house.....

[@XTimTheEnchanterX]

Don't worry Phil, I'll always support your simic shenanigans

[@damiend.7392]

Really fun game to hear! Thanks for filling in my commander itch when I cannot scratch due to a busy schedule! Ya’llwould be the best pod with whom to play.

[@DraftMatters]

I never thought I'd like watching commander since honestly I am not a fan of the format but these guys proved me wrong. For some reason I love Commander Clash.

[@IBeScrappyDoo2]

Richard "is" and has always been a "Sleeper Cell" so always be on your guard !!

[@briancrook9055]

This episode made me realize there are actually two Rebecca Guay wood elves arts featuring two elves on a misty night. They're similar enough that I always assumed they were the same picture, but since the editor showed a different art than the one Phil has I noticed the difference.

[@Leviathan894]

Next podcast topic, “cards people get unreasonably upset about.” Put Mesmeric Orb on there.

[@dracish123456789]

Misplay @ 44:44 the draw from arcane denial is a triggered ability owned by seth so it would go on the stack after richard's mill meaning he would draw first, then mill.

[@etten4536]

We need to have a week where you all play artifact decks! See who is the true artifact player

[@seanedgar164]

Crim hates both artifact and ramp decks, Richard likes metagaming. Expect so many vandalblasts

[@DavidDraslar]

Hey Seth, whats a dawg doing? Going to the vending machine and spends his caps to get a clue.

[@Atanar89]

25:45 Phil is just spinning Lonis in vain hopes of maybe drawing a card instead of just cracking a clue.

[@MstrKipper]

This is actually one of the coolest decks Ive seen Richard make, super big fan

[@aurelienbourgeois7414]

I miss the deck outros to present the deck techs it sweet cards that you didn't get to show off.

[@usuryname191]

No, no, no! You all just misheard Seth! He was saying "COGS," not DOGS.

[@stevendefeo8424]

This show is a lot better now that they actually play with real cards

[@JayeGlow]

0:48 So excited to see how Ryu plays out!

[@ethanhughes3515]

It was crazy and pretty funny how everyone was scared of Crim even when his deck was pinging for 2 every turn

[@skykur]

*looks at the art for Adrix and Nev, Twincasters* Hey it’s Phil and Seth, both artifact decks 😂

[@destinyhero]

Crim when Phil is threat assessing: I DONT PLAY WRATHS ITS A RYU DECK I WANNA HADOUKEN Crim 5 minutes later: I'm gonna Farewell Make it make sense

[@DeinOmma]

Ich sehe Phil, ich gebe Daumen hoch!

[@BrewersKitchen]

🙏

[@laytonjr6601]

Richard: brings Lurrus as Commander (the only card to ever get banned in Vintage for power reasons) Also Richard: why did you kill me first

[@light-chemistry]

"Phil greedy? Never!" 😅

[@mse326]

No one probably sees this but after the Arcane Denial on the upkeep Richard milled and then drew. Shouldn't be the other way? Arcane denial was Seth's spell so his trigger, APNAP puts the mesmeric orb trigger on the stack then the Arcane denial so the denial resolves first. Or am I misunderstanding Arcane denial since it's a delayed trigger?

[@velphidrow]

You're right

[@pintlemounted]

Come on, that’s not scooby and shaggy. There’s no way shaggy would be that motivated a detective. That’s Velma and scooby.

[@oafkad]

I want a scoops sticker doing that rainbow gesture with the text.

[@webbc99]

Lmao that Academy Manufactor

[@dannyboy1200]

1:15:26 wait protection makes equipment fall off? I thought it was only enchantments, with equipment you just can't target.

[@politegirl3657]

Seeing Phil's brain tick over when he saw cards he thought would be cool in his deck ruled, as a clue enjoyer this week was an all timer

[@Hibadell]

“Imma hit that, honestly” - Phil

[@giovannishepard653]

Can't wait to see what Crim does with Chun Li. I've got a budget Zethi deck that I could use ideas for.

[@siltygaming5067]

The threat assessment is wild in the start of this. Obviously Phil was gonna be the problem. Lol

[@allanturmaine5496]

5:10 I thought Crim was drawing lewd tokens, but it's just leaf hands.

[@Smithfamilyfitnessprogress]

Why was there a cut between the last Seth draw and play for the plus +3/+3

[@RirseDeBlood]

On the website last week it mention the next video was suppose to be a video where it all of one type like all planeswalker. Or that another week.

[@MTGGoldfishCommander]

The schedule got a bit messed up, that episode is coming.

[@Mithrandork]

Still unable to say Seaside Citadel without putting it to the tune of Duel of the Fates

[@garrettfarnam4567]

I don’t understand why Crim and Phil don’t put field of ruin in every deck, it beats Richard single handed

[@FrackenKraken]

Academy Manufacturer is my favorite dog😂😂😂

[@Bleuchz]

7:35 for sweet Phil finger gun action.

[@mattt3481]

3:19 BASIC ENERGY PLANT TOKENS?!?!?!?!?! i thought i was the only one who did that! LETS GO CRIM

[@TerminallyNerdy]

I am surprised Crim isnt using Paradise mantle to both generate a bit of mana and tap his commander, so he can more easily Hadouken people.

[@gleesmw]

is there a way to zoom in on the active players board (or other board for that matter) at relevant times durning the martch to aid those who have smaller screens? Also helps see all the relevant plays. I do understand that is a big editing ask.

[@velphidrow]

That's an insane editing task

[@bradstanky]

question! when you guys build decks everyweek do yall have a no proxie policy ?

[@bradstanky]

i think i answered my own question just by watching the video... someone builds the decks for yall and ships them to you every week ?

[@tobiaskrieger9481]

OMG i pushed the W before the ad was over :)

[@MindstabThrull]

Mongrel Pack only cares if it "dies during combat", which means during the combat phase. According to the rulings on Gatherer: - The Hound tokens are put onto the battlefield if it dies during the combat phase, even if it was not an attacker or blocker. Which means it could be sacrificed to another effect during the combat phase and you would still get your Dog tokens! "People complain about Simic. I'm just here trying to kill people..." Phil, 2024 (about 57:40 in) Is this the first time in history that Crim wasn't actually playing a Stax deck? Wait, does Farewell + phasing Ryu count as Staxing?

[@Ivad]

Looking forward to seeing what Crim does with Ken if he ever gets around to it

[@tommystenberg8307]

Anyone know what app they use when playing digitally?

[@CrisMW98]

Lurrus deck looks cool!

[@jshavluk4342]

Now how did Richard equip during his upkeep 🤔

[@ItsMeBoingo]

Phil is awesome keep rocking man

[@HeyHeyHeyJoJoJo]

I was like, what seth plays open the way and nobody attacks him or sees the danger. After all these talks😂

[@laytonjr6601]

"Don't attack me I don't have a board" "This Orb is killing me I'm untapping 15 lands"

[@bardhoag]

Seth… please… Hanna-Barbera reeling from shaggy doo… 🙃

[@thomaskauffman250]

all these comments dunking on crim talking about pronouncing ryu and hadoken, but no one cares that Seth is "Casting Scooby who brings in a shaggy" when it's reversed.

[@user-tx2mu3cr2o]

Wait does this mean crims gonna play gief at some point. I'm so down for this

[@laxlangpunxaway9260]

48:37 Phil when he sees a simic value commander (love u Phil ignore the haters)

[@lothrazar]

wow Sigarda's Aid is amazing

[@skykur]

The last 20 mins of this episode has the best banter ever

[@mtgs_calcifer]

Maybe this is AspiringSpike wearing on me, but I really didn't appreciate Seth complaining the whole game about everyone else and then winning with his artifact deck.

[@nosyamthegreat8768]

Lets goo phil. Man of rhe peaple love simic big stuff

[@Sup4ast4r]

The link to the decklists isnt working

[@DarkPikachuYTV]

1:17:47 Crim miss hullbreacher

[@poothrower101]

guys -- i can't believe I have to tll you this, but you're supposed to cut OUT the countdown at the beginning and just start with CLASH ON

[@t.kenneth5697]

1:17:19 Don’t you mean “Bow-wow-wow-wow-wow” Seth? 😎 I’ll see myself out

[@bananaman5513]

Phil, can you try Lonis voltron might make you less of a target

[@metatron8578]

Great episode, a shame about the ending being very heavily influence by a rules slip-up. Would have liked to see the valid outcome, but I know how hard it is to keep everything correct after hours of gamplay.

[@Jotama_Prinkar]

Great "dogs" deck!

[@KykyJyky]

Nice Bellsprouts

[@Nathanael_Forlorn]

Fairy artisans is impressive though, in this era of etb value.

[@dylanpalmer6315]

Seth's "dog" deck is almost as bad as Tomer's "warrior" deck lol

[@BentTimeAndSpace]

Rye-Yu and Ha-doo-Ken 😂

[@pixelbomb97]

That is specifically how Ryu says Hadoken in SF2.

[@ElDocBruh]

That Gary Clone would have killed Crim and either Seth or Phil in a single swing 😱 Each of them would have been 122/3, and there would have been 11 of them vs 6 or 7 blockers :v

[@DonovanPresents]

Seth is just playing a Dogifact deck 😂

[@robertkramer9399]

Seth played two lands a turn several times? The turn he played vesuva he played a fetch the same turn. Then played two lands a turn for like three turns in a row lol

[@Matteo_Consiglio]

All beautiful, excerpt for Seth's "Dog" deck and Phil playing the exact same value deck every week

[@dwol93]

Seth shuffling makes me feel like I have OCD

[@samanthamorris-7872]

Crim infected Richard with a bad case of blue player

[@alexandrelima2766]

They let Phil play simic ? Groooss

[@Halinn]

I think Seth played a land too much during turn 9 (both Vesuva and Flooded Strand)

[@jvt3888]

Crim’s jersey is straight gas
