It was probably still underestimating how threatening he was at that point, but Josh also proved to be able to keep DrLupo in check several times after. In the final turn, obviously we know that Olivia had the kill switch in hand, but JLK wasn't able to keep recasting his commander and recharging his hand, and three opponents were too much for the waning number of cards in hand.He probably got too confident seeing that Olivia had failed to close the game after drawing thirty cards and didn't think she could close the deal that turn.

Don't underestimate the blue player. Josh knows he isn't playing one game, but several. I dont think you're seeing pettiness or a thirst for revenge. Developing a reputation of risking the win if people mess with you is a smart play across multiple games. It's going to make people not swing at you because they know you have a tendency to ignore the obvious play if you get annoyed. There is a rationale to pretending to be irrational. A grouphug deck like Josh's is the perfect staging ground for this kind of metagaming.

Before watching the actual gameplay, I felt the need to comment to say how much I enjoyed the animated intro! I got a nostalgic rush of endorphins dating back to my childhood watching that intro because it reminded me of an opening intro in a cartoon or movie! Hats off to the editors and creative design team for that wonderful intro and the anthropomophization of the cute forest creatures into each of the players. 🎉🎉

I feel Olivia's "What kind of litteral harebrained harebrained play is that?!" remark went over a lot of people's heads. It was amazing and I will using that phrase for as long as my GF has a Ms. Bumbleflower deck.

I get that feeling, Jimmy. You play nice, clean Magic, only to be ruined for it by players scared of what you are doing, and not scared of what other's decks are capable of.

I feel like Josh got greedy using his last control resources to essentially kill off two opponents when you should really use your position to defend yourself. Honestly deserved.

bro what was josh smoking this game so I can know never to smoke the same thing lol. Targeting every single thing jimmy did and preventing him from having any fun betrays the entire premise of a casual, FUN, commander game. I get being petty at home games but this is Game Knights, THE biggest edh show and I feel like the guy who's been here from day one should know better than to do that lmao

I love the opening to the Bloomburrow episode, it kinda reminds me of the Redwall Abbey Books I read in High School. So I am so excited for this set and even more excited for the Squirreled Away Precon, its going to be awesome and epic. This is by far my all time favorite episode this year. I really love Olivia's deck, it is awesome 😍😍😍😍
