Not really if the table runs a reasonable amount of removal

[@andrewb378]

@@gustavoramirezjr7320 dies to removal has never been a good argument for power level

[@DragonKnightCole]

Team Kona! Who’s the best dog? 🐶

[@semicolon_cancer1243]

In these games.... GREEN. Thanks for the double feature!

[@JpDubbed]

Kona and Aminatou decklist links are broken (at least for me). I suppose the bans didn't really affect your channel? Can't remember if you guys play with those cards. But thanks for this :) fun seeing Aminatou, looks like such a cool deck! And Arabella is def going in my Isshin deck.

[@SmoothBrainEDH]

The bans don't affect us much. When we do videos, we always discuss the power level ahead of time and often end up in this area between mid and high power, which rarely included the banned cards. For set release, we shoot for mid power to give the commanders and new cards a chance to shine. As such we have a separate hard ban list that already included Mana Crypt, Jeweled Lotus, and Dockside Extortionist. The bans did affect our cEDH and highest of high power videos which we internally call Fuck It We Ball. But we typically only do 4-6 cEDH and 1 FIWB video per year, so like 10-15% of our videos.

[@JpDubbed]

@@SmoothBrainEDH That makes perfect sense from what I recall. Yeah, I typically found myself adding only Dockside in mid-high power as opposed to all 3 or Crypt and Dockside Love the methodology behind the set release rules too! I like seeing Commanders go off when I first get introduced to them.

I would love to see you play sheoldred the apocalypse and see what you put together shes my favorite commander ive built out of my 12 decks

[@brytonjorgensen8457]

I'm glad that I also got the esper precon along with the simic. Zimone has me feeling less and less confident every video haha. Was happy to finally see a Zimone deck pop off and win though! Master of Keys should be fun.

[@christopherrue1773]

Duskmourne may be one of the best sets ever for Commander. Great video!

[@ajaydassani9931]

I was thinking putting kona in my ziatora deck but not many ways to tap it

[@Gregness2000]

Yo, we got a Persona 3 shoutout at 15:53?
