Commander at Home #16 - Smeagol vs Pramikon vs Slogurk vs Anowon ft TheAsianAvenger and OneMoreMana

[@spamgoose6447]

Brian: "Smeagol draw!" Olivia: "oh my god" Brian at Crim: "Smeagol allies?" Olivia: "NOO!" Best conversation lol

[@jasonkegarise2677]

What time was this?

[@Wambo96]

​@@jasonkegarise2677around 28:00

[@zekelockman1477]

To answer Crim's question: In the early days of Battlebots (early 2000s), Bill Nye was the show's science correspondent showing all the internal workings of the machines and their plans to destroy the opposition. Nowadays, the technology is much more uniform, with organizations like Team Whyachi and SendCutSend manufacturing the parts out of tank-grade steel and sometimes even titanium for use on the robots. Also, Olivia: The robots are by no ways small. They weigh at most 250 lbs, and if you robot can walk, it weights up to 500 lbs. There are separate events for smaller weight classes, such as 3lb and 12lb, but the normal weight for the Battlebots TV show is 250 lbs.

[@Xantosdude]

There was an ultra lite competition in San Francisco (Battlebots was hosted on Treasure island in SF) called Soz Bots. Bots would weigh 1lb or less. However, they also allowed flamethrowers and more dangerous weapons.

[@dragonmaster1601]

and the only walking bot was chomp

[@moxavenger]

But the question is will HyperShock take it all this season?

[@SkittleWolf]

There are also smaller weight classes (as mentioned) that are pretty active around the world! There are more than these but these are the most common! 3lbs and under are usually the most popular, for obvious reasons. Fairyweight: 150g Antweight: 1lbs Beetleweight: 3lbs Hobbyweight: 12lbs Featherweight: 30lbs Organizations like National Havoc Robotics League (NHRL) do competitions all over the USA (tho based in Norwalk, CT). These competitions are streamed on KZbin and you can find their previous events on their KZbin channel. They also make it extremely accessible to anyone looking to get involved!

[@Blargiguess]

the fact there was still an hour of gameplay after a fantastic breach is insane.

[@sarahmay3795]

Every time Crim starts a sentence with "I'm going to just politely play....." it brings me equal parts joy and terror. 😆

[@adamtobiasz8793]

Of course because he is a Satanist scum vampire who likes demons and is against Jesus Christ.

[@retro.7673]

When Crim plays you know it’s gonna be chaos.

[@hanschristopherson8056]

Crim is just there to laugh like a maniac

[@AsuraBoss]

Crim is here to hurt anybody playing green

[@YeaItsMeMatt89]

Guess what's on the menu

[@BulgyLamb]

Ahh the friendly neighborhood Crim. Love to see him back for another banning

[@Bump33]

Crim is cringe AF I wish he would stop speaking, luckily he's less annoying when he's on the show. Still won't stopme from skipping his vids in mtggoldfish, even when hes playing the most interesting deck ive seen in years.

[@skykur]

Never seen so much damage dealt in a commander game. It was all targeted at Olivia’s mental health 😂

[@anactualdino]

I'm not sure if it was intentional but it's very funny the synergy of this pod's decks: Crim wants to mill people and steal their cards Derik wants to get milled and play with lands Brian wants to steal cards and play lands Olivia vroom vroom car go fast

[@ryanmann5497]

Or not in my Olivia’s case 😅

[@pikachufantastic]

One of these things is not like the others.

[@Flyboy245]

Olivia being 4000% done with the Sméagol voice from minute one, which I imagine just incentivized the propagation from the rest of the table, was hilarious. Plus the payoff at 38:45, when she succumbed to the pressure of the precious made it even better. Camera zoom was fantastic 😂

[@mattyflattop]

I like how Brian's Smeagol impression ranges from Jar-Jar Binks to the Crypt Keeper. 😂

[@ColorwaveCraftsCo]

Omg so accurate 😂

[@IvanDraug]

Don't forget Adam Sandler

[@Blackadam36]

28:42 “Seeing Crim sober up in real time” 😂😂😂

[@forgottenhope26]

As someone who just built a Sméagol deck and will be testing it for the first time today at my LGS, I was very excited to see this on my feed today. Then all the chaos happened in the video and it made my day even better, so thank you for that 😊

[@commanderathome]

Have fun!

[@benink8658]

love to see crim and derek play! great goblin energy between these two

Love to see Olivia and Brian invite their neighbor Crim over again, also Derik from One More Mana which deserves more views, such feel good vibes from both of them

The best thing I’ve learned from watching Commander at Home is how good trample deathtouch is.

[@rishab349]

1. Not me being excited cause I've made Anowon, Slogurk and Smeagol as commanders 2. Why do I always fall in love with whoever comes as a guest on your show 3. My stomach hurts from laughing so much. Amazing episode 😂❤️

[@leoleo1035]

THANK YOU OLIVIA FOR PLAYING PRAMIKON!!! Sadly last video it did not had a lot of stage light!

[@radikalskippy]

Maybe someday they'll actually let her play with her cards for a bit!

[@LazarusIsBackBaby]

I don't really get why she didn't play it to stop Bryan from attacking her

[@JaySay]

​@@LazarusIsBackBabyCrim had multiple unblockables and flash creatures, so she knows that he would also go after her just as much as Brian. He didn't have as much power on board, but the effects would cripple her, and she wouldn't be able to deal with most of the attacks. It's a lose-lose, she even said so in the video.

[@kanvaros4451]

Love y’all ! Just last weekend won my first game of commander with some friends I met at my LGS with my bear tribal deck !!! Y’all perfectly capture how it feels to game with your friends

[@commanderathome]

That's the idea!

That’s great! I’m sure Graham Stark from LoadingReadyRun would be very proud of you! ✊

Been in the process of a cross country move, couch surfing, and motel living since the end of may and yalls content has been helping me stay same, thanks for all ya do!

[@benghis_kaan]

@ 50:19 - " but you can't flip it, you can't transform it..." Actually, based on the new rules change regarding copying transforming permanents, see link below ( changes to rules 707.8A and 707.10G), I believe Olivia's Sheoldred car does have the back side and can transform with that ability

[@Scaileanna]

if it only flipped yes, the problem here is that it exiles first

[@benghis_kaan]

Petition to make Crim the 3rd player every time and only have 1 new guest per episode

[@hanschristopherson8056]

I don’t if olivia could survive both him and brian lol

[@dimitrialberti2092]

We need this.

[@JaySay]

What would be even better is on the games where he isn't playing, he's running commentary on the side of the table facing the camera.😂 Crim has such a great way of showing joy and fun, that with every little thing that happens he'll just be comedy gold for every episode!

[@ryanmann5497]

Olivia definitely wouldn’t survive 😂

[@youthmindude3826]

The thing is, Crim dominates the conversation and keeps the other guest from interacting much

[@DJJordanLee]

I see Crim, I click.

[@skwiki5024]

Watched this when I couldn’t sleep and my alarm suddenly became for 3 hours instead of 50 years. Thanks guys!

[@aandylane]

Olivia playing the heel to Brian's stupid bits never gets old. Absolute #couplegoals

[@sheyjake]

God im so happy this show is uncensored. Episodes like this is the exact reason why I do, and will continue to be a patron on patreon lol

[@ninjamummysquid]

Olivia asking Crim "Are you wiping?" at 33:46 completely derailed my brain. I missed that Crim just warned her to not play anything and I genuinely thought this was a bizarre bathroom question.

[@Mattycake5]

Best 3 turns that were basically the same turn I’ve ever seen 😂. Brian sounded more like Sméagol as the game went on.

[@Minedeleis]

Can't believe Crim just broke into their home three times this year and they still haven't changed their locks ... anyways hope they catch up to the birthday suit man running around !

[@PfunkyMike]

Games with Crim are always fun/interesting/strange. Great episode!! I could see Olivia's inner monologue a few times ("I need more female friends") during Brian's "impersonations".

[@gareth4009]

Crim is like The Gurk… just keeps showing up at the party 😂

[@danheinz6755]

Another hilarious episode! I think Crim brings out the best in Olivia lmao. The looks she has when he's doing ridiculous stuff is just great like "dude i just wanted to play some stupid cars, and you're doing this bs." 😂 In all seriousness, i really enjoy seeing the table be loose and silly like this. I have zero idea how the real interpersonal relationships are , but the table relationship in games like this one are immaculate. Yes the game was weird, yes people didn't even get to see everyone do their thing (sorry Derick and Olivia), but the table was laughing, cracking up at the absurdity of it all. So thanks for the laughs today and another great episode. I hope you had as much fun playing it as i did watching it. Ps- big shout out to Brian for the Smeagol voice and even getting Olivia to do it once which caused her to pause and actively reflect on life for a moment there. It was hilarious!

[@thetoastygoat_]

Olivia isn’t physically allowed to crew for the untap step to have her creatures untap. The untap step is not actually a step and you can’t take any actions during it, if you don’t believe me then check rule 502.4

[@BlackHawkXx9]

As much as I love Battle Bots, I'm incredibly sad that Olivia's deck doesn't function better than the 2 times I've seen it on this show. This game also makes me really understand more the hatred for cyclonic rift.

[@ghostsnipertrue]

Rift is such a staple, amazing card, wins me so many duels in arena

[@barrytdrake]

I loved this! A couple of months ago at Geeky Teas (my LGS), we had a Commander game that went for over 3 hours-- there were so many boardwipes. I don't even remember who won, but it was so much fun! Two of us were playing Demon decks, and we kept resurrecting the same creatures over and over again.

[@commanderathome]

Oh hey we love geeky teas :)

[@Cef21]

I feel your pain Olivia, this is my Commander nightmare scenario.

[@benghis_kaan]

I really like Olivia's take on a Pramikon deck! I might need to try that deck out

[@tyiscool12321]

I loved the long game! It was an hour in before I was like "huh, this second cyclonic rift is pretty close to the first" haha Love the show, please keep doing it!

[@nathanielwhitehead6475]

Olivia love your Pramikon EDH deck.

[@Chinobobat]

Crim is the quintessential essence of how I wanna play the game. His reaction to breach the multiverse was amazing. The Gurk bit made me literally lol Olivia I’m sorry you had to be in the middle of all the Smeagol banter. Your face showed it all 😅

[@andrewkarasek3219]

This commander series just feels so cozy.

[@shadowfrost__]

I love how at multiple times during the game if you just watch Olivia face, you can tell in her head she is actively trying to talk herself out of choosing violence. Especially during the Smeagol voice there were a few times she had look like if you don't stop I'm going beat you to death with one of those trophies. Also Sheoldred, is totally rolling up in a blacked out Rolls Royce Phantom.

[@seafoodgod]

Lambchop plays Commander. "This is the game that never ends..."

[@stevejohnston1376]

Been bingeing episodes trying to catch up, and they are great. Nice to see Etrata in play! She's one of my favourite commanders!

[@HiCallMeRusty]

Hearing them call Slogurk "The Gurk" reminded me when I built Slogurk when it first came out. Me and my friends always called it "The Juice". I still say "Tap 3 for The Juice", even when I'm not playing it!

[@scottgerk7627]

Listening to them talk about "The Gurk" was really eerie....

[@woebegone_kenobi]

Derik having a fog there right at the end would've been phenomenonal 😅

[@dylandehart5246]

Crim had no idea how real the fellowship was until that breach the multiverse

[@JJMickeyMedia]

What a ridiculous and fun episode that I have finally found the time to enjoy! Also want to add that as the owner of one of only 2 Livaan/ Inspiring Leader decks on EDHREC, and the only one with a vehicle theme, I do have a deck with Hoard Hauler in it.

[@HighRollMTG]

This intro gets me in my feels everytime, yall captured the essence of the gathering

[@AlSadim]

I love your deck Olivia! I love vehicles lol I’m currently running a Shorikai vehicle deck, might have to change it up to jeskai lol

[@YourFriendTheComputer]

I will say, having these on as background noise is super useful for when I'm trying to brew up my own commander deck just both on a noise to help me focus and being reminded of certain little gems existing. (Although it's turned making this Chatterfang deck into a two day process at this point)

[@otakuamerican5190]

Brian don’t worry whenever I’m valeting someone at my job and their taking a long time I’ll start shuffling tickets in hand

[@burningpapersun1]

Crim is the secret 3rd host. The local goblin to match Brian's smeagol energy.

[@Zap2x_93]

Crim is one of the best guests you could ever have. This episode was both traumatic for Olivia and very very very funny for us at home. Amazing.

[@Voidrix00]

I enjoy how smeagol got increasingly more yoda sounding as the game went on

[@NT_Escanor]

My favorite aspect of this show is the honest and genuine interactions caught on camera that make me laugh in real time

[@Yull-Rete]

Yay! Another Commander At Home vid. Time to do algorithm things and also request that you do a Bryon Stoutarm deck.

[@cook279]

Just found you guys a few days ago, binged all your games, and was hungry for more (ideally with Crim) so this is perfect timing.

[@kingst7997]

I love when Crim is on he's such a joy

[@virgilhoward9071]

I did not think you could crew or do anything during the untap step since no one has priority. That means you should not get the untap from Drumbellower. Unless the rules have changed.

[@Goodpaster907]

Love the vibes on this show. Feels like playing with my friends.

[@nicholasrolo886]

When Olivia played Astor i legitimately heard "Asshole, bearer of Blades"

[@mopanda81]

brian explaining that hand shuffling was for cursed scroll and hymn to tourach was actually super interesting. guess I can’t nitpick compulsive shufflers anymore

[@1goodeninja357]

Woo hoo! Finally been waiting for a new episode to drop favorite magic chanel!

[@notsm]

I love Crims commander playstyle. He seems to not be playing to win but to have fun. He'll take the opportunity to win if it presents itself. It is very close to my own that's why I enjoy it so much both here and in the commander clash.

[@jakeplays4413]

[@StorytellerCharm]

Everything about Crim is just pure dopamine. His comedic antics and playstyle and goofy politics. If I could afford to build even one of his decks I’d be happy because they’re so dynamic.

[@ThatOhhio]

I love Olivias deck! But I would like to point out that while Drumbellower is a sick card (and was printed in a vehicle precon!) it is not a triggered ability (and thus doesn't use the stack), and there is no priority check during the upkeep to allow you to crew a vehicle before untap. HUGE flavor fail of the card, but there is no way to untap your vehicles with Drumbellower with the way it is designed.

[@legruntdu94]

Can't you crew them during end step so it stays crewed until the next end step and you do untap all your creature (thus vehicule) during opponent untap step ?

[@ThatOhhio]

@@legruntdu94 You cannot, crewing lasts until "end of turn" not "until the next end step". End of turn is the cleanup step that happens AFTER the end step (where no one gets priority / isn't a phase you get to interact with, similar to how there isn't a point to interact DURING untap)

[@legruntdu94]

@@ThatOhhio Did not know that, thanks !

[@tajicbladeofthelegion5474]

25:31 Super minor thing, but you don't get priority before/during the untap step, and, since Drumbellower isn't a trigger/doesn't use the stack, you can't tap things in response to it to get them to untap.

[@aphextwinkie410]

I think my favorite part of Commander at Home is attempting to piece together when every episode was filmed. Like Olivia said in the last episode that she lost twice with Pramikon, leading me to believe this episode came out first. Then in the first episode Arin was in, he said he was wearing a different shirt so that leads me to believe *that* episode was filmed in-between the first and second Pramikon losses. This is like my Pepe Silvia.
