So you're saying Frogs mechanically and thematically... Bounce? I love that. 🐸

[@ullrich]

Damn, beat me to the comment! I love it

[@maclainholland4236]

I am so excited to make a Frog deck

[@HydropolisCity]

Took me a while, but the reason Sugar Coat enchants both creatures or food even though it only seems worth using on a creature, is because the enchantment would automatically fall off a creature once it became food if it only said “enchant creature”. Hope this helps somebody else.

[@zackestin1368]

“It kind of looks like a generic good stuff commander” me, shocked that a simic commander would do that

[@cassie7611]

obsessed with the art on flubs!! it’s the fool tarot card, it’s INCREDIBLE, i LOVE. if i figure out how to build this deck i might just have to

[@michaelcollins4534]

Temur madness? Or some kinda flashback arcane bombardment deck Edit: Seth started talking about this the second I commented lol

[@Level_1_Frog]

Flubs the Fool might be one of the best designed commander cards I've seen in a long time. Its ability is really strong, but also super wonky and not obvious as to how to play around with it without hindering you more than helping you. Not to mention the absolutely wonderful artwork ❤ Flubs is utterly wonderful and I'm all for this kind of design.

[@malte54]

Flubs with manabond into life from the loam would be huge. Just put in 3+ lands into play eot and flubs triggers 3 times. Since you have no cards in hand, you can draw --> dredge 3 to get loam back, then discard loam and then dredge it again.

[@Level_1_Frog]

@@malte54 that is very cool! Manabond is way cheaper than I thought too, only like $2, perfect for a budget deck ♥️

[@bronythekight7369]

You actually wouldn’t trigger Flubs with this effect cause flubs specifically says “play a land” not whenever land enters. It like horn of greed where alternative land enters don’t trigger it, only lands you play for turn and additional land play effects like flubs himself.

[@malte54]

@@bronythekight7369 Sadly, this is correct. Missed the "play"-part. That makes this frog useless af landrelated.

[@Level_1_Frog]

@@bronythekight7369 good catch 🪝.

[@_great_expectations_9478]

There’s a part of me that wants to figure out a graveyard-based, spell-slinging, storm type deck with Flubs. It seems like a bad strategy, which makes me love the idea even more.

[@jongailey85]

Love Flubs. He’s got one of the more interesting payoffs I’ve seen recently. Glad he’s a strong build-around instead of just generic value. It’s the first legend I’ve seen that cares about an empty hand. I’m definitely going to have to try brewing around him.

[@jamespatterson5644]

should work well with red's impulse draw.

[@jeffe2267]

Seth's Clement play lines are the epitome of Seth's durdling playstyle lol. Spend like 10 mana to draw 3 cards.

[@noahhager1187]

manifold mouse is a build your own embercleave

[@maciek19882]

Bloomburrow art is so arty!

[@Dragiceoriginal]

“Dreadmaw Entrancer” lol

[@JustDan_777]

it hurt me a lil honestly

[@WormOTB]

Missed the chance to say “hop right into it”

[@yazoink6690]

Flub with Song of Creation.

[@pmgottsc]

“Flubs, the fool” with “Pulse of the Grid”… chef’s kiss

[@Kasigi03]

If you're splashing white with Manifold Mouse, try Canyon Jerboa to help that trample and double strike boost.

[@jdgarrison9913]

Recurring Deep-Cavern Bat with Zoraline in an Orzhov Bat deck is gonna tilt some people. xD Edit: Also, I know Seth said Zoraline doesn't need to be in a bat deck, and I agree... But let's be honest, if you're playing Zoraline, you're probably also playing Deep-Cavern, and possibly Aclazotz already, anyhow.

[@josereneticsay32]

I love that he accidentally called Dreamdew Entrancer as Dreadmaw

[@floki6548]

We've seen the commander precons and I'm shocked on how all of them seems fun to play and different at the same time.

[@TheRealLB_1984]

I may just be blind, but I currently do not see a recent video of a potentially-viable mono-black deck that can contain/control mono-red aggro (Slick-Shot Showoff can burn in hell; card is BROKEN) and/or Toxic decks. I'm recently getting back into the game (after a 10+ year exodus), and would LOVE to see what kind of standard-safe mono-black deck you could come up with!! That being said, YOUR content is what 'lit the fire' to get me back in to Magic (albeit, online via MTG: Arena), and I can't say enough about your willingness to even include the matches that you LOSE - as every single deck CAN and WILL lose matches. No deck is fool-proof, yet you don't hide that fact from the masses. LOVE THAT! Furthermore, you show the matches that looked so bleak that your losing was about as certain as 'Death and Taxes,' yet you STILL - somehow - found a way to pull out the 'W,' which helps reinforce the idea of "never give up, never surrender...because you just truly NEVER know what might happen." That's an ideal that more players need to adopt, as I recall playing in MANY tournaments where my opponent would scoop, only to look at their next card and realize they actually stood a fighting chance. Keep up the good work!!

[@erlanddrow7950]

I think Flubs could also be played with all those "Draw extra cards, discard your hand during the end step." Since those colors most of those effects

[@nathansloat6479]

Flubs would also be good with impulse draw. I suppose full against the odds would be put a dark steel mutation on it and gift it

[@isaacscott3681]

Flubs with Eruth to keep cards out of your hand and abuse the draw?

[@zackestin1368]

Flubs is just instant/flash tribal, so that if you have 2-3 cards in hand you can dump them all in response to his trigger. Not sure how you went to future sight tribal before instants.

[@ToadboyMTG]

As I am "ToadboyMTG" I'm very happy to see frog tribal 🐸 ❤

[@rickroller420]

Flubs is wizards saying “I bet you can’t make a deck out of this, you cheeky bastards”

[@zorglub105]

OMG : just noticed that the frogs have a BOUNCE synergy. I love it

[@lamiaprincess6371]

The first time I saw Flubs my instant first reaction was "Oh, this is kind of like a Commander version of Song of Creation", and I think there's actually a possibility it could end up really powerful? This reads like the kind of card where you can make these big stormy turns go off with Rituals and Containment Construct and cool cards to discord and use like Echo of Eons. I feel there's definitely room to make it a cool combo commander.

[@burntowl2594]

I theorycrafted a Flubs the Fool storm commander deck. Just a bunch of free spells that you can cast, draw a card, and repeat until you draw a storm spell. it seemed fun.

[@InRealTime769]

I love that Frogs care about Bouncing themselves

[@Petronio39]

For me, the card I immediately thought of with flubs was uba mask. Now we storming. Add in a recycle, then we're really storming.

[@wunderbar5702]

This applies more to commander but Rotcaller looks like a *literal* menace in changeling tribal decks

[@MindSlain]

Hate to be a downer but Zoraline mill with helping hand, bats and 3 cmc enchantment removal seems miserable for a standard meta

[@kylechmielewski9972]

You don't have to play any of that besides deep-cavern bat which is great on its own Zoraline is just a strong value engine with a good kicker ability

[@harrisono.324]

Eruth, tormented prophet could go pretty good with flubs.

[@crovax1375]

That's exactly what I was thinking!

[@Karl_Smink]

Don't let the "lesser" clause fool you, Clement can form loops the same way Scrap Trawler does. As long as something low on the chain lets you bounce anything, you can keep going. He's going to be a pretty disgusting flash-control commander.

[@williamsimkulet7832]

Rotcaller - Oh, look, 4 different creature types I need to pay attention to in limited. And maybe constructed if my opponent also plays good cards from other sets.

[@hunterjennings4574]

Love Flubs, I am going to make a "The deck of many things" flubs deck! It sounds so goofy.

[@jamesrobinson4506]

Zoraline seems positioned for an Orzhov blink style deck in something like Pioneer. Getting double the value out of something like Plaguecrafter sounds solid to me.

[@jacobjensen7704]

How to build Flub the Fool? All-in-aggro!!!! You get board-wiped? Cast your commander, recover, keeping going aggro.

[@ThatOneSawk]

this set is so fun! cant wait for release, which is a first for me ahaha

[@nathand6467]

10:01 Plaxcaster Frogling was a card worth resetting in the early days of commander, but our value engines are so much better now, than a few +1/+1 counters. But its a frog, you use to want to flicker/bounce!

[@Liteyears11]

Flubs the Fool looks like the Temur commander I've been looking for. I had a Hazoret the Fervent EDH deck a while back and he looks like a more intuitive build for a Hellbent strategy.

[@FlowBerni]

Omg i have this friend who always wanted to build frogs with madness.. he stopped mtg like 2 yrs ago because of heavy product fatigue.. but Flubs would be the perfect commander for him.

[@psycoteck0808]

I'm looking into building flubs like a wingrace style landfall deck since you can play an extra lands and that kind of deck typically has cards to get lands out of your graveyard so the discard is less of a downside

[@BludMun]

Cards with activated abilities in graveyards could be another theme for Flubs. Better yet, it would be a busted Dragons Approach deck.

[@OdinMagnus]

Seth, you missed the part that it says "lesser mana value" so the loops are bit weaker. I was thinking if it said "equal or lower" then you can have some really stupid combos. But I think this guy is just a bit weak. Edit: right after you talked about the "less than" part

[@matthewmejia1590]

Amazing vid!!

[@12triproberts]

It's 2024. Of course Charging Monstrosaur needs sneaky Reach.

[@juptor]

Flubs has the same art as the Tarot card called "the fool".

[@kbeadle23]

I love the tribal is getting slot of love this set

[@mylobsteroscar8381]

Grolnok the omnivore getting love with this set I hope, finally gunna have my frog army instead of a bunch of imposters (changlings)

[@OGTahoe3]

Valley rotcaller seems like something good in bats. Access to double life loss and the new bat legend

[@jeffe2267]

It seems really busted in rats.

[@joshuahampton6141]

I don't often stop by to say it, but this set is actually absolutely incredible. I don't really care if the design is powerful, let alone powerful enough to see standard/modern/etc. play. It all looks fairly flavorful, thematic, and fun, and that's what I always loved about my favorite MTG sets. I hope this set is successful because I would actually try to play MTG again if there are more sets like this.

[@OwenNix]

Frog tribal is finally viable. I’ve been trying it for years.

[@marcelphillip1239]

In the fourth quarter of next year we will have the new Lorwyn set... and if they do what they did in Bloomborrow man, I'm back in the game...

[@zackwilcox3183]

First thing that came to my mind with flubs was ensnaring bridge. Then i thought oh but i may get locked on one card in hand likely being a land , so seismic assault seems alright. Then i thought i have to keep ensnaring bridge around so maybe counter spells but i want a empty hand , so theres that d&d secret lair guy tht gives spells fortell. Point being theres some neat cards tht could be put with flubs , but i think madness/future sight effects are probably the better and ofc less "stax" feeling way to build it. My inner old 8rack self just wants to play ensnaring bridge again. Ofc also song of creation seems pretty sweet with flubs.

[@ethanglaeser9239]

Are we going to call the "squirrel and rat and lizard, etc." creature type bunches "Vermin Lords"?

[@BFG93]

Zoraline is like a mini Rudolph duskbringer and I'm all about it.

[@awaissohail8787]

Clement pretty good in an omo deck

[@memelydcatting3049]

Sugar coat should be a green or black spell. Hopefully they made a green black blue food themed legendary creature

[@Wojtek36762]

Step 1: cast Flubs Step 2: cast Eruth, Tormened Prophet Step 3: never have a card in hand again, every cast is 2 impulse draws Step 4 (tormented) Profit!

[@Atmapalazzo]

I'm not as sold on Zoraline, and would probably compare it more to Alesha who smiles at death than Extraction Specialist or Serra Paragon As for Clement as part of an Aluren/Prayers engine, that seems incredibly unlikely as it's a pretty muddled loop and Acererak is still by far the cleanest target.

[@MakeVarahHappen]

Did Seth forget foretell and plot exist? AGAIN?!?

[@dustindavis3537]

Would love to see if someone can make something work with a Harmless Offering sort of Flubs deck.

[@PendelSteven]

22:32 Not just a Commander card. Also legal in Legacy, for example!

[@tevsauce2749]

I Built Flubs with lots of impulse draw then just big top end threats like both Etalis

[@icyskelly204]

I love bloomburrow all ready!

[@shizukajonouchi2562]

That frog manadork and the raccoon manadork... Couldn't you use shapeshifter or other cards that are all creature types for those mana effects?

[@kotogadang]

Is it possible to tap the creature for mana first on etb stack before blinking with clement the frog?

[@jacobbrj]

If you blink flubs, can you play another additional land? That would be spot cool with a future sight effect.

[@zackestin1368]

No, it’s a static effect, not a trigger

[@AngoDecay]

im really worried that all these effects arre focused on tribal like manifeld mouse, they wont find a place in constructed formats seems to be mostly a limited mechanic maybe commander

[@KaladinStormBlessed190]

so now we are gonna get our ass beated in turn 3 by a bunch of mouses... what a time to be alive 😂

What cards can you combo with Sugar Coat to make it worth enchanting a Food? It seems you'll almost always just cast it to enchant a creature.

If it didn't say enchant food, Sugar Coat would immediately fall off of the creature it steals when it turns it into a food.
