Counterspells: Forever Ending Commander Careers

Graham and Kathleen from LoadingReadyRun never fail to make a game of Commander entertaining!

[@skylarthoma5353]

“Jokes on you, I’m into that!” Is such a good retort for getting bodied in commander 😂😂

[@mibbzx1493]

That last line was cold 🥶 “ill cast talisman of dominance, you should give that to her”

[@jordannutt2238]

This is the thing ive loved about magic the handful of times ive played. Ive got just good enough counter cards that HUGE combos can just be single card canceled

[@ryanstewart2289]

Summary Dismissal is probably my second favorite counterspell.

[@kiritokaguya9180]

The Talisman is on the wrong side of the table😂

[@x_DNR_x]

That episode was 🔥,... Everyone had amazing game play & as always packed with action. 😂🤣😭

[@ChaseDudMartin]

This is why Whirlwind Denial is such an auto-include for me. Great way to blow out someone's abilities.

[@theamazingincrediblespider9689]

I have never seen that card. It is so good! Hopefully I remember it next time I’m building a blue deck

[@dorping_Wolf]

could be worse, could have been a "Time Stop" (empties the stack, and ends the turn)

[@AshesOfKarma666]

This might just be one of the best magic highlights of the year 🎉🎉

[@kalamander8563]

'You should give that to Kathleen' KEK

[@brendanhart517]

This WHOLE stack was amazing

[@HinekoAkahi]

"No! That's too spicy!" xDDD

[@mrpoparq]

I always see those types of counter spells and wonder where they could be useful. I understand now…

[@jxj13]

This was great lmao

[@primeshifter1699]

Oh boy, did you ever get pooped on? That was a good one ……I don’t believe I’ve ever seen that card before.

[@lilith_spohn]

Mommy... Sorry... Mommy... Sorry

[@thejaybacho]

So from what I understand, he could still have copied the Artisan before the Summary Dismissal resolves?

[@mark1A100]

no its a cast trigger so it goes on the stack kathleen spell will resolve before graham gets the option to copy it.

[@BahamutZerodragon]

that was the most brutal counter i have ever seen. and i love it. also its the reason i dislike blue in magic so much. so many counter spells... so many.

[@malachicook3321]

The pay two to copy option was also countered cause it said counter all spells and ability’s meaning everting on the stack

[@joedoe7572]

But only once Summary Dismissal resolves. Before it resolves, he can still copy the abilities and resolve the copied ones. She should have waited until he copied everything, then cast it to counter everything

[@Train__]

@@joedoe7572 Sadly, not really. The trigger to copy was already on the stack since it’s a cast trigger. Summary Dismissal is the last thing on the stack and the ability to copy can’t be paid for until Dismissal resolves, but by then, it’s already countered

[@RKarnage]

​@@Train__ so cast triggers CAN be countered if there is a payment involved when casting?

[@Train__]

@@RKarnage Triggers can be countered in general, not just when payment is involved, since the ability goes on the stack. In this instance, Ulalek’s ability would trigger on any Eldrazi spell, then you chose to pay when the ability would resolve.

[@RKarnage]

@@Train__ I see, thanks!

[@carlospolk5033]

Sorry Graham. We love you but uh… yeah. Them fat Eldrazi gotta go away! 🤣
