Commander VS S4E3: Emrakul vs Gisa and Geralf vs Ishkanah vs Ulrich [MtG: Multiplayer]

[@SCGCommander]

(Jeremy) Hey everyone. Thanks for helping us to choose what Eldritch Moon cards we used for this video. We're hoping to do something like this again in the future!

[@magimagimagi8820]

i feel like bruna/gisela should've been one card not two. possibly throw up one or the other, kind of unfair to have it the way it was.

[@TheSlayerOfTranzit]

from what i heard, Liliana used her zombies, with Gideon and Chandra, to lure emrakul out of thraben. And then the rest of the gatewatch(including Tamiyo) imprisoned her in the moon. and the reasoning behind that, is because it was just like the helvault, because the helvault was a fragment of the moon. that's what i heard, I don't know if it's accurate.

[@keep7smiling]

hey! unfortunately stephens cheat count went through the roof again, like in every video :( grave betrayal does ABSOLUTELY NOT what stephen thinks it does. this changed the game from the very beginning.... read the cards guys! mimic vat straight up hardcounters grave betrayal.

[@akaEtoo]

Jeremy it is a point system, just freakin kill Justin first every time what are you guys thinking! Steven always helps him every game so just assume (it will be truth) that Steven is trying to make Justin win. You and West have to team up and just kill Justin, turn 3 every game. Would be so much better.

[@slapp5357]

+Thorsten Böhme Actually Grave Betrayal does EXACTLY what he thinks it does, and Vat does NOT stifle its ability: it's a matter of who's trigger happens first, and they got it right. Go read the rules before calling someone a cheater.

[@r4g1ngph03n1x]

Emrakul, the Promised End, should have the flavor text "That's no moon."

[@ItsAStarfish]

O my god that's amazing

[@endermeap6488]

It’s the flying spaghetti monster!

[@the0exciled966]

Sometimes I go back and watch these episodes again, and this is probably high up on my favorites list. Emrakul was my first mythic I opened in Magic, followed by a Liliana, and watching Emmy consume the table is amazing. Great memories. Here's to many more.

[@darkzero3]

Stephen Green didn't read Grave Betrayal. Grave Betrayal only gives you the cards at the end-step. Not right when they die.

[@m3grim]

1:06:45 My two puppies were sleeping next to me, y'all howled, and they both BOLTED upright and booked it to the backyard, barking their damn heads off. An unmitigated success on your part, lads. :D

[@Keevaqt]

Stingerfling Spider was milled by Nyxweaver while Undead Alchemist was still in play, so it shouldn't have been brought back by Living Death. Everyone just completely ignored Call to the Grave for half the game and Grave Betrayal returning the creature happens during the end step so the creature would go under the vat.

[@jaydoyle2596]

The grave betrayal vat interaction really annoyed me.

[@malikchristie6511]

So I'm pretty sure Justin should have taken two turns with the Ugin's Nexus play because U.N. says if a player would [ Begin ] an extra turn that player skips it. However by the time you started your second turn no U.N. were on the field so no turns would be skipped. So the first one goes to the graveyard based on the legend rule granting you one free turn as long as the second one is gone by the time you start your second turn and when you sac'd the copy that gives you two consecutive extra turns.

[@christopherbennett8973]

was just about to comment this you're right.

[@Qualcuno111]

4, considering the possibility to throw sculpturing steel on the Nexus. Enough to kill everyone else. Source: i play Daretti.

[@SilasTheLunark]

Ugin's Nexus first ability is a replacement effect that occurs when someone tries to begin an extra turn. It will only stop you from taking an extra run if it is on the battlefield at the point that run begins. You can sac the second Ugin's nexus after the first one dies in order to get two extra turns. Also, Emrakul WAS the promised end. She played all the planeswalkers for fools and sealed herself away because she was tired of playing with them.

[@gargaldeeznutz3222]

They need to have Justin on a team with Stephen and have them play Bruna light of alablaster and gisela blade of goldnight vs. Wes on a team with Jeremy playing Bruna the fading light and gisela the broken blade.

[@rockwarlock9573]

To give Justin and Stephen an easy win?

[@4Refros]

They wouldn't be able to meld into brisela, but I do agree that would be cool to see, but the originals are just so much stronger I don't think it would be very balenced

[@seanlambdin2067]

Eldrazi Conscription is a colorless enchantment. It also has the bonus of being tribal, so it counts twice for Emrakul.

[@ZincPHX]

Eldrazi Conscription is not only a colourless enchantment, but is also tribal. Not that Justin would want it in his deck, but my inner pedant had to say it. loved the episode!

[@CharlesGouraudgaming]

So much going wrong at 50:00! First of all, wes forgot to sac due to call to the grave. Also, grave betrayal returns at the end step, not immediately, and Justin should be 2 lower on life, with 2 more Ulrich damage, because of the door of destinies.

[@skeet23z59]

Ikr kinda annoying how you can't do anything about it. I was practically shouting at the screen

[@silence433]

Agreed. There's always some error in the game that drives me crazy. And Parnell should've taken 10 from Ulrich (4 power + 2 door + 1 mayor + 1 oran-rief + 1 full moon's rise + 1 gruul war chant).

[@DarkPikachuYTV]

It really didn’t matter because he was going damition anyways

[@obeycelestia]

Eldrazi Conscription is a colorless enchantment! The only one, I think. :)

[@Lost77]

It's also a tribal spell, for double dipping on Emrakul's cost reductions~! :-P

[@obeycelestia]

Lost77 You know it! :)

[@WhiteWizard42]

There are technically a few other colorless enchantments (Molten Nursery, From Beyond, Visions of Brutality), but Devoid doesn't really count. Conscription is the only true-colorless one.

[@obeycelestia]

Oh hey, you are right! Funny how I forgot devoid was a thing, haha! Have a +1. :)

[@ItsAStarfish]

+WhiteWizard42 there is a colorless enchantment artifact creature

[@rolandreece3180]

There is a season points total. Why is everyone not named Justin Parnell not trying to have him get last while he is in the lead? He toys with Noel and Green by not committing early on, and than when he is down in a game he mulls about, is vocal about how bad his hand is, exposes his hand to show he isn't a threat so no one takes him as a threat, while turns later after drawing new cards he dominates. Play strategically. Last season Wes was getting double teamed when he was in last place. Suarez needs to come back.

[@flyingpenguin9938]

1:15:33, yes there is colorless enchantments(Eldrazi conscription)

[@tetrisgoat]

Warning: long post ahead. Grave betrayal is next end step, not as it dies. 49:20, missed Undead Alchemist trigger with the Nyx Weaver trigger. This is not a may. It triggers off of any creature going directly from the library to the graveyard, not just Zombie-swings. Even things like Fact or Fiction. 1:26:10, using Liliana creates another missed Undead Alchemist trigger. Thus, Penumbra Spider can't be brought back with Living Death so it cannot create resulting token. Meaning Call to the Grave goes to the graveyard at end of turn. Deathreap Ritual does thus not trigger on the following turn since both enchantment and token are gone. Junk Diver can't die to the trigger of an enchantment that is no longer there to bring Ugin's Nexus back. This would not matter much since Justin could still sacrifice Junk Diver to the Arcbound Ravager, giving another counter. (A "better way" to have played the subsequent Ugin's Nexus, by the way, is to sacrifice the Ugin's Nexus to the Arcbound Ravager with the Mirrorworks-trigger on the stack, thus also circumventing state-based actions. A whole extra counter for three at this point and then play Sculpting Steel to copy Ugin's Nexus-token, sacrifice Sculpting Steel to state-based actions, sacrifice the Ugin's Nexus-token to Arcbound Ravager with Mirrorworks-trigger on the stack and have the Sculpting Steel token enter the battlefield as copy of the now defunct Ugin's Nexus-token, as Mirrorworks rulings suggest is possible and then sacrifice the Sculpting Steel-token to Arcbound Ravager for the fifth counter and begin 4 extra turns since there are no Ugin's Nexus on the battlefield **when the new turns are about to start**. Oh right, they caught this now so nevermind. Scratch that again, he still only took one of his two extra turns for having had two Ugin's Nexus go to the graveyard, which tokens do before ceasing to exist) With Justin's inability to combo off and kill everyone in those turn sequences in mind, which happens in all commander games, mistakes are made, the Call to the Grave mistake kept warping the game, which could've been game-altering had Wes drawn a creeping Corrosion-like effect off of the Deathreap Ritual. Or the Green Sun's Zenith he DID draw into a Bane of Progress. I don't think he plays either of those cards, and I probably take this too seriously, but such is the way of things. I also respect the clusterbucket all commander games are and the difficulties of pulling off a combo in a deck you've never played before. I am not trying to say anyone is bad, it's all fun and games. But rules are rules and you expect people to point things out in comments. Also, I have not played with any of the aforementioned combo cards (except Undead Alchemist in a Phenax deck with Thousand-year Elixir and Intruder Alarm) so I may have even gotten a combo wrong. I don't play with any of the artifact cards mentioned for instance. As always, I do appreciate you taking the time to produce the content. It really is the highlight of my week. Truly. Next week looks really fun!

[@ThetrueGreenThunder]

grave betrayal says at the end of the turn btw, but i loved the video nonetheless

[@mtshank]

They were so happy they caught the non-zombie part when it should have been saced all the way back at Wes' Damnation.

[@ElarianFirescale]

The "Jäger" in "Jägermeister" is the hunter, but the hunt in Huntmaster is "Jagd" in german. So the german Huntmaster of the Fells reads "Jagdmeister vom Kahlenberg".

[@Anaki99DK]

Quick question at 1:04:00. Noxious Ghoul enters but he only gives gisa and geralf -1/-1, shouldnt that be -3/-3 as the creatures with counters are zombies?

Question: Grave Betrayal only works on the Next END Step. Why would it be on the stack when things die.. Mimic vat is all the time...

[@typoko]

It works all the time but they come back at the next end step.

[@MrDannyTS]

+typoko well..mimic would exile first so grave betrayal doesnt work at the same speed

[@malikchristie6511]

Not if Justin chose to exile it under mimic vat. one of the rulings for grave betrayal says if it would leave the graveyard before the delayed trigger then it wont return the the battlefield

What is Green talking about at 1:46:49 about randy calling a deck a certain name?

[@WG_Zombeenie]

Curious (because I'd ask about this later), but wouldn't Mimic Vat go on the stack, then Grave Betrayal, making Betrayal resolve first and giving Stephen the creature (eg Junk Diver)?

[@MrDannyTS]

great video! I like the voting for generals, would like to see it again. Also love the randomization method for this season, even if I do already miss Susan...

[@howsjames1]

Man I loved that super obscure A Knights Tale refetence.

[@LawdyPop]

Ugin's nexus being in play also turns Emrakul into a mindslaver due to the way the text reads on Emrakul, I believe.

[@BetweenTwoFires8]

ahh that's my favorite kind of magic. So many turns in a game of commander and I want them ALL!

[@highroller5335]

So the voting was cool that was neat I'd like to see that for new sets/commander products... so Ugin's Nexus, it doesn't prevent players from gaining extra turns it says that if you would start an extra turn you skip it instead. So he plays Nexus and a copy of it, sacs one to the legend rule; gain an extra turn. Then before he starts that turn he sacs the other one to Arcbound ravager and gains a second one. Justin had 2 extra turns to take.

[@glogic007]

Not very significant, but Justin said he was a mana short from dbl Mindslaver w/ Mirrorworks. Since his graveyard was Hangarback, that was 2 card types plus his land was 3 types. Eye negated the additional cost for the cmdr, so Emmrakul was actually 10 mana, not 11.

[@6ftTiny]

Wait, did I misunderstand, or did Justin sac Sanctum of Ugin, because it's a nonbo with Emrakul? If so, I believe it's quite the opposite - you still get to control your opponent's turn, but then they won't get their extra turn if you have Sanctum out.

[@98junebug]

i think a good commander video would be everyone picking their favorite commander color, then their least favorite commander color, and making a deck with those two colors.

[@willuda7098]

That's an interesting idea, although I image there will be a few x/r's

[@Kestral287]

A few? Probably four.

[@forgottenartificer]

Could the token copy of Ugins Nexis cause an extra turn since it has to be exiled from grave to get the extra turn and tokens dissappear after leaving the battlefield?

Would you guys ever consider doing some type of 2 General games?

Holy crap I can't wait to see what they've done. Unfortunately I have to study rn but something to look forward to!!

[@zeekyboogydoog826]

Emrakul was the first Commander deck I ever built, but as more general Eldrazi tribal. I'm thrilled to see her get the win.

[@halophilicnc6473]

Wes died with Arachnogenesis in his hand. Officially off of TeamWes.

[@willuda7098]

Lol

[@davidwise5148]

In my defense, I passed the turn with 8 creatures, 3 of which could block flying and I was at 21. They had to put in some work for that victory.

[@Kestral287]

Yeaaah. I can't say I'm part of Team #Wisemove (but I still love you Wes!), but Wes wasn't in a position where he should have had to hold up Arachnogenesis. There were four ways that Justin was going to be able to kill him (without also destroying Justin's board): take Wes' turn and make him suicide his creatures, Eldrazi Conscription, Ugin, or All Is Dust. That's three cards of 99 when Justin hadn't been drawing a lot of extra cards or doing much tutoring. Leaving up Arachnogenesis only plays into the known available option of taking Wes' turn and making him break his own board, because it puts fewer cards on the table that need to be outed (it's still doable by Justin just turning everything sideways of course, but that's a little more risky for Justin than a more practical suicide). Put another way, Wes played around the known problem to the best of his ability and got blown out by Justin happening to have one of two cards that just breaks his back.

[@halophilicnc6473]

Even without a board wipe, spiderfog would have been better. 0 damage, 2 more spiders on board (parallel lives) vs what? Lose all your spiders to combat damage and end up at 1 life?

[@Kestral287]

Which is fine, because it would let Wes actually crack back. Nobody there was going to point anything at Wes besides Justin. So yeah. Wes would lose his spiders, live with a little bit of life, swing back for 9. Then next turn, recast the general for a ton of toughness and hold up Arachnogenesis (I believe he had the mana to do both). Get in for 9 more assuming Parnell swings. You're now a swing away from lethal and should have a bunch of blockers ready for the next attack. An optimistic line on the whole, but better than holding up a card that shouldn't have done anything.

Do you guys not realize that grave betrayal is nullified by mimic vat? when grave betrayal goes to get the creature at end of turn, it would no longer be there

[@Lunaraia]

Spoiler warning: well we are back to how it was in the early days of Commander Vs, Justin starts out doing bugger all, Stephen gets an early lead and makes enemies of EVERYONE, Wes and whoever sits beside him tag up to take out Stephen and start to stabilize, then Justin who has been left relatively alone goes off and wrecks everyone.

[@TheMymineplay]

Stephen is playing the card call to the grave, it makes each player sacrifice a non zombie at the beginning of their turn. He should be sacrificing Gisa and Geralf whenever he has them in play since they are not a Zombie but he does not.

[@SonAlexander]

Stephen Green messed up around the 1:04 mark. When he hit his upkeep, Call of the Grave triggers and he needs to sacrifice Gisa and Geralf because they are NOT zombie creatures. It's what we call a Nonbo...

[@11epicnoob]

at 1:03:30 I would've done Spine of Ish Sah for the token's trigger. You'd get it back each turn

[@Tantrumspam]

Also, I'd like to see a game where all of you start each with your own Temporal Aperture in play...that would be sweet. (maybe even have it be indestructible) maybe for your next randomonioum games, with a lil more random spice.

I may have blinked and missed it, but I don't think Jeremy ever had a single werewolf transform. And besides a brief moment somewhere early in the game, I don't think that deck was ever remotely dangerous. In an unrelated note, "kudos" to Wizards for finally providing EDH players with a legendary werewolf who can make a werewolf tribal deck remotely useful in EDH. Thanks Wizards!

[@tyleradams2162]

Was Stephen using Kalitas in his deck? I know it's a vampire but since it makes zombies en masse I think it would fit right in in the deck.

[@PiroMunkie]

It's been a slow week in Magic for me. I've been looking forward to this video. :)

[@flareblade24]

Did Justin actually mess up the Ugin Nexus play? He wouldn't start the extra turn until the end of the current turn. Therefore, if he sacrificed the copy to Ravager, he would gain 2 turns since neither would be in play anymore at the end step.

[@emilysmith3594]

"If a player would take an extra turn, that player skips that turn instead." That is a static ability of Ugin's Nexus while any copy remains in play. And since Ravager's ability cost is "Sacrifice AN artifact," the triggers couldn't fire simultaneously in that board state. Besides, the Nexus is legendary. Unless you have an instant-speed trigger that sacrifices both copies immediately (like the Kuldotha Forgemaster that wasn't even in Justin's list), one immediately dies to the legend rule, and therefore fails to trigger.

[@Arvensa]

The Nexus doesn't care *at all* about you *generating* an extra turn. It only prevents you from actually beginning an extra turn while it's on the field. There were no cards or tokens named Ugin's Nexus on the battlefield at the time Justin went to begin his extra turn(s).

[@emilysmith3594]

Are you sure? The board state certainly appeared to have an active copy of Nexus. At least as far as I recall. You're right if that's the case, though. Maybe I thought the Nexus was active, but I was looking at the imprinted card (which is actually exiled). So... not sure.

[@MestHoop]

Well, people pointed out the Undead Alchemist (creature exile and zombie token happens regardless of source of mill) and Grave Betrayal (they all return at end of turn) mistakes already, but I think they messed up Ugin's Nexus as well. Justin said that the first nexus that died didn't give another turn because the copy was in play. But nexus says "If a player would begin an extra turn, that player skips that turn instead.". He sacced the copy during the same turn, meaning that he didn't have a nexus in play when the first or second extra turn began, so he should've taken 2 extra turns (and sadly lost a point because of it). Correct me if I'm wrong please! Don't want Justin to lose points #teamparnell (even though he should've gotten a point in E1 of this season due to killing Wes with 28 commander damage). PS. Can't wait for Khamal Pit Fighter! It was a favorite card of one of my best friends who passed away last year.

[@kiwilover8]

Justin actually missed his second extra turn from the ugin's nexus copy, it only skips the turn when they would begin it, not when the effect resolves.

[@LDIndustries]

I was actually in the process of building an Emrakul, the promised end commander deck before I watched this episode and now that I have I have so many new ideas for cards and combos. EDIT: Until he started one shotting them I didn't even think about the commander damage from Emrakul.

[@TheWinterPhoenix]

Also would like to point out that Emrakul according to the lore wanted to be imprisoned on the moon. So she really did win. To quote the story "They're all my pieces I'm just done playing."

[@GrixisGal]

i am currently 26:38 into the video and mr. green just pulled a land from his yard to hand off of skull winder. i am really hoping he does not complain later that he has only gotten lands.

when stephen got the mul daya with hus grave return and then it went away because of damnation... it shouldnt have, because he gets at the end step, thus the damnation couldnt kill it at all

48:44 how is that only 7 damage ?

[@keep7smiling]

grave betrayal brings creatures back at the end of turn which means with the damnation they all get exiled by mimic vat first and justin can choose which one to keep. then they go back from the mimic vat exile zone to the graveyard, but the grave betrayals targets are no more since they switched to the exiled zone inbetween.

[@keep7smiling]

so with mimic vat on the board grave betrayal has absolutely no effect. it is a blank, textles card while mimic vat is on the battlefield.

[@keep7smiling]

[@heltoupee]

I'm probably wrong, but shouldn't Justin have taken 2 extra turns instead of 1 (around 1:39:15). Nexus reads that if a player would begin an extra turn, they skip it instead. Justin never began an extra turn with a Nexus in play, and had 2 Nexuses (the real one he pitched to the legend rule, and the copy he fed to Arcbound Ravager) hit the yard, then get exiled and traded for an extra turn.

[@markharland2459]

You are correct, they missed that. He also could have fed the original Ugin's Nexus to the Arcbound Ravager for an extra +1/+1 counter, instead of letting the legend rule put it into the graveyard, if he responded to the Mirrorworks trigger.

[@erikbraun473]

The grave betrayal wouldn't have been triggered by the sacrificed cards from call to the grave due to the wording of sacrificed being " moved directly from battlefield to graveyard" they wouldn't die, also you wouldn't be able to regenerate a sacrificed creature, although that didn't pop up in this battle

How many tickles does it take to make Emrakul laugh? Ten Tickles.

[@Andrew.Ehrhardt]

they are playing undead alchemist wrong, right? or am I not reading it correctly

[@KidsJavo2088]

Nop he used it well, but he did mistake in using call to the grave xD Gisa and Geralf aren't zombies, so he has to sacrifice them in his turn. Sorry if my english is wrong, a long time not practicing it in a proper manner

[@timnooijer9436]

it says "if a zombie would deal combat damage to a player, INSTEAD that player puts that many cards from the top of his or her library into his or her hand" Meaning that there should not have been damage taken by those zombies... (if i read it right)

What we need is a RG Wolf Commander that affects Wolves and Werewolves, something like Immerwolf. My idea: __________________________________________________________*_________________________________________________ Ragnaris, the Father of Packs - RRGGG Legendary Creature - Wolf Spirit (4/4) Eminence: You may pay R (maybe RG) to transform target Werewolf you control. You may ignore any effect that can't transform Non-Human Werewolves you control. All other Wolves and Werewolves you control have +1/+1. 1RG: All Wolves and Werewolves you control have First Strike and Hexproof until the end of turn. RG: put a 2/2 red and green Wolf creature token onto the battlefield. "Even the most savage of my kind or the most proud of the Wolfir see in him a fatherly figure." - Arlinn Kord -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------*---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This guy is my idea for a commander deck that I can still use Immerwolf for its lord effects and flip the Huntmaster of the Fells as I afford to pay for it as well. My dream is this creature being official xD

Wes never got to take his extra turn from Emrakul's Mind Slaver effect.
