That play was so funny, I love watching black mages burning themselves out like this.

Nah you did the right thing for sureeeeeeeeeeee - jimmy

[@hodlsage8968]

I think you suffered from a condition called Avernus emotional damage 😅 Jimmy sure loved the play. Made him a king! 🤴

[@adamchreene595]

I feel like he left you no choose. You gotta do what you gotta do sometimes.

[@taofaj4217]

You did a lot of damage to yourself, then blamed him for playing an enchantment 2 turns before. Seems a little unreasonable. I’m not trying to be mean or anything though, I just think it’s goofy

[@clasherking4528]

I love the fact that the turn after Johnathan, the pirate, dies jimmy cycles a lonely sandbar. It's the place where the pirate hid his last treasure token lol

Always love getting Jonathan Young back on the show! I'm new to Magic but I've gone back and watched most of the Game Knights in the past few years, and this has got to be one of my favorites. The decks, the constant swinging of the game between players, the players themselves, everything was just perfect. Here's to a good Game Knights!

This was definitely a great video and an awesome game of Commander. Also, congrats Andrew for the win. Assassin’s Creed is one of my all time favourite games/series and it was fun to see them come to MTG with their own set and I’m happy you got to show them some love. Jimmy is one of my favourite people since he’s so much fun and it was nice to see you claim victory…with my man DaVinci to boot (the OG ally of the Assassins). Johnathan is one of my favourite people/artists ever and it was fun to see him come back on Game Knights…and it was also fun to see him go out on his own terms. Great job Game Knights and I can’t wait to see what you guys do next.

[@derrickhaggard]

When I play with my Assassin's Creed Deck I'm going to be running my take on the Brotherhood Initiates Deck which means it's the Blue-Black deck commanded in a Commander/EDH style game by the man, the legend, the leader of the Italian Brotherhood himself Ezio Auditore De Firenze, and yes 4 of the creature cards will be Ezio's super-intelligent ally who is not only a brilliant mechanical engineer, but a master artist, and a brilliant doctor who revolutionized the study of the human body/anatomy Leonardo Da-Vinci, and 3 of my most favorite Assassin Creed protagonists those being the Frye siblings Jacob and Evie, and Connor Kenway.

I'm going to run the Brotherhood Initiates Deck from the Starter Set which in a commander game is led by Ezio and yes along with adding in Connor Kenway(his card calls him by his Mohawk name but I don't know how to properly spell it), both Evie and Jacob Frye I'll also be adding in Leonardo Da-Vinci cause I can't have a Ezio deck and not include his best buddy and go-to tech expert for new gadgets and gadget upgrades.

[@styfen]

Seeing people justifying not paying tax "because they're behind" instead of paying attention to the fact that being behind is worth good will and reduces the amount you get attacked is classic Game Knights. Always pay the 1.

[@InsanoRider777]

Being behind means that you generally avoid getting directly targeted. However, it also tends to mean you've got the most punchable face

[@petermaximoff4598]

Basically I'd your not about to win you should pay the 1, cards are just too good and typically what ever your doing instead of paying isn't as good as free card advantage

[@Xavier-nk8xn]

To play devil's advocate Jimmy was still getting attacked even though he was behind

[@rev9115]

I think it depends on the table… against combo and ramp decks sure you should pay.. but if you are sitting with a bunch of assassins and pirates on the table, you gonna wish you were not so outnumbered
