[@CasuallyCompetitiveMTG]

In case you missed it we will be Live playing some Semi-Competitive EDH on this KZbin Channel tonight (March 13) at 7:30PM EST. Remember to vote for the commander you want to see in the 'Fan Favorites' video using the 'i' in the upper right corner of the video. Hope you all enjoyed this video! Recording for Season 2 has been wrapped up and we're really excited about season 3. We have re-looked at the pod selections and we think you'll really enjoy the pods in Season 3.

[@ujai5271]

Glad I didn't have to look long for this comment.

[@th3on3thatb3atu]

I know he was getting low and scared of Razaketh but near the end when he flashed Derevi out he could have tapped his winter orb and untapped with like 8 mana and a Sylvan library. People often forget this interaction.

[@nelsoncaceres6005]

And it works with static orb too :D

[@chaoszuki]

The derevi deck was honestly very lackluster. He could have done so much with it tbh.

[@SpyrotheDragon97]

Really wasn’t expecting that ending, but wow what an ending! Imagine actually using Demonic Consultation to actually search up the card you need, what a play.

[@MindLaboratory]

I didn't know you could do that

[@owneyw4374]

Really liking some of the commanders this season!

[@CasuallyCompetitiveMTG]

Glad to hear it!

[@chihshiangshee9002]

That oath of jace misplay was in my opinion pretty significant. Not only would his aminatou be 2 less loyalty less but he also would not be able to cast mystical tutor if he decided to blink his land to play oath.

[@CasuallyCompetitiveMTG]

Aminatou's flicker ability is a -1 so it would have died at the same time it did in the gameplay and the Mystical Tutor could have been cast in upkeep, still drawing Demonic Consultation. The main different it would have made is it would have kept Adam off of 1 extra mana compared to what is shown here, but based on what everyone else had in hand and the fact that none of us were expecting or prepared for a Spark Double, we decided that in all likelihood he would have been able to pull the combo off on the next turn anyway, and decided that it wasn't worth scrapping the entire game due to this error

[@chihshiangshee9002]

Yeah based on the winter orb being present didnt seem like he could do much after that, so it didnt really matter much I guess.

[@TheViridianDusk]

@@chihshiangshee9002 To be fair he could have won a lot sooner had he used animatou to blink back his peregrine drake and essentially negate the winter orb. That would have alowed him to use a lot more mana each turn and find the altar of the brood faster.

[@selkokieli843]

Mistakes are part of in magic, strategic and rules mistakes too. not a big deal in the end and the game was good anyways!

[@Belena711]

The deck won with a combo. That misplay let him draw six. . . The game was really fun and good, but that misplay could have changed everything. Those things happen, though, and it was still a great game. 👍

[@andrewmarinkovich8657]

Great job as always. I enjoy seeing these decks that use cEDH win cons but with commanders you don't often see at the cEDH tables. It's cool to mix things up like this.

[@Phelps285]

I've waited so long to see some Nexus Derevi gameplay. Thank you guys! Loving the content!

[@CasuallyCompetitiveMTG]

I really enjoyed the playstyle of that deck, thinking of making it one of my main personal decks to be honest

[@Devilish420]

Holy crap, I never would have thought of that infinite mill loop strat. Now I really have a reason to get a spark double and a felidar guardian for my Aminatou flicker deck.

[@claudsfake2902]

ShinAkuma420 fun fact you can also add Corpse Knight to do infinite dmg and Soul Warden or Impassioned Orator to gain infinite life. Also also if you add Panharmonicon to the mix you can have Felidar Guarians etb to also bounce land and then immediately tap it so you gain a mana off your land on every time it gets flickered so you get infite mana. Same with with either Muldrifter or Cloudblazer, if you have Pan on the field while you go infite you can also get infite draw or if you wanted if you have Pan and Garry and your infite combo you can deal infite dmg and gain infite life simultaneously

[@selkokieli843]

There's several two and three card combos with aminatou and you can read about them in an article about her in wizards site or propably any fan primer too!

[@Devilish420]

@@claudsfake2902 I have a soul warden and a impassioned orator in the deck all I really need is a felidar guardian. I also have mirror image in the deck, its no spark double but it works for the combo since it comes in as any creature you control.

[@stevenluoma1268]

@@claudsfake2902 Corpse Knight and Altar of the Brood are the best two that I've tried out. There's also some stuff you can reanimate if you want to do a reanimation package such as Vela of the Night Clad or Extractor Demon. I wouldn't really run cloudblazer or muldrifter in a competitive version of the deck. Worth noting that spark double ALSO infinites with aminatou cause of it ignoring the legendary rule and the -1 being able to target planeswalkers. And it can be tutored by recruiter of the guard. Honestly, spark double has been the best card in the deck since WAR came out.

[@mastermclovin0]

Lol, that ending was hilarious, I did not see that coming

[@MBGnome]

Thanks for doing a Derevi video. She's my first and main edh deck. So satisfying when an opponent plays a winter orb before me and I stax them out of the game with their own artefact. Versatile commander.

[@hiddenleaf414]

Can’t Jospeh can be flashing Derevi in before his turn to tap down his own Winter Orb so it won’t effect him?

[@marcellopozzessere1656]

I really liked the game, great content!! One small thing, I believe that Nexus of Fate isn't at all affected by Rest in Peace, so Joseph couldn't have been milled that turn. Of course he didn't have enough mana to actually cast the Nexus so he would have been milled the next turn. :)

[@anteduluvian]

I think he did. Looks like the enchanted land is untapped, chrome mox is imprinted blue, one land untapped for turn, swin with derevi to untapped vault...

[@SilHbs]

What a nice and simple combo this altar of the brood one hahahaha

[@princelaharl6]

I'm surprised Adam didn't win the turn Felidar Guardian resolved with Aminatou out, but good job! I suggest trying out Corpse Knight if you want to add another wincon with infinite ETBs.

[@jish55]

Yeah, he played Felidar too early and took too much of a risk on that one since anyone who has played against an Aminatou deck would not want that card to remain (which makes me happy Spark Double is a thing now, that way an aminatou player has alternate methods to do the infinite flicker).

[@ThiagoRuback]

14:12 isn't Piranha Marsh in the graveyard? How does he cast it afterwards?

[@ElucidYT]

Bill plays a lot of decks with the commander starting with a "K". Kykar, Kambal, Korvold, Kroxa, Kaalia, etc.

[@Isolanporzellator]

Aminatou flickers anything you own, not stuff you control, so you should've grabbed that Peregrine Drake for mana. The list really should also include Gilded Drake and Wishclaw Talisman for exactly that reason. Another secret tip is Scroll of Fate. You can manifest a card from your hand, then flicker it to return the card face up, basically allowing you to cheat any permanent into play at the cost of 1 loyalty rather than paying mana costs.

[@Mtglilypads]

Sidenote Adams misplay with the tax on the Oath of Jace. The extra draws make a difference

[@austinlove2557]

Any chance we can get a Selvala, heart of the wilds game?

Also since there’s 5 of you, do you ever play 5 player edh?

[@Sliver_Boi]

Usually we just do 4 man games, sometimes we do 5-6 player games if we have extra people but those can get a little crazy

[@iraingaming]

I'm curious during 21.53 why don't Joseph tap his own winter orb instead ? So he could untap all land ruing his turn .

[@WiskMTG]

Am I missing something here regarding Rest In Peace and Nexus of Fate in the Derevi deck? Since RIP and Nexus are both replacement effects, the owner of the affected object chooses in which order to apply them. So shouldn’t the derevi deck have a single card library consisting of the Nexus of Fate?

[@Isolanporzellator]

You are correct. Derevi could have swung to untap Mana Vault and cast Nexus once, but after that his Winter Orb would lock him out of the mana to cast Nexus on subsequent turns, so he still would have died because he wouldn't have been able to cast it to get it back into his deck.

[@Mentir42]

At the end there, could bill have stayed alive by using scroll rack? just wait till the dark confidant trigger happened then activate scroll rack for one. Chances are he would have lost anyway due to not drawing new cards but it is worth a shot.

[@ThatsNotcEDHDano]

I appreciate you mentioning when mistakes are made and how it would likely effect the game; however, after catching up on the past few episodes, there have been a lot of misplays concerning Aura of Silence. With this being more borderline CEDH, you would think this would be caught more in game considering the amount of use of the card.

[@Bradcliffe99]

Can someone post a link to Joseph's playmat if they know where it's from? It's pretty dope

[@Sliver_Boi]

It's actually a custom art mat he ordered

[@wojciechmajka5504]

In Derevi list, there is hermit druid with 9 basic lands. I believe, druid is a replacement for breakfast combo, additional way to dig for nexus. So why there are basic lands in the list?

[@itsnotknot9118]

What a way to end it! Would love to see your take on a competitive Thraximundar deck!

[@Foyfluff]

I play an Aminatou deck incredibly similar to this one, so really nice to see it take the W.

[@anthonykutz9944]

Out of curiosity what does yahenni do better than other monoblack cedh decks like krik or sidisi ?

[@maximilianjack1764]

I know this is a year old, but if you're still wondering a sac outlet on a commander is very good. also, he's liable to get pretty big in a game and one shouldn't underestimate the unexpected strength of a big ole indestructible creature, even in commander.

[@StaticCat1369]

Don't know if it was mentioned or not but when Nate stole the Consecrated Sphinx from Josephs gravyard with Dance of the Dead wasn't it supposed to get +1/+1 counter so when Joseph played Swords to Plowshare wouldn't that have gotten him 5 life not 4 - not really sure if it would have mattered or not since the way the game was won, but just curious if maybe you guys missed the +1 power there. Regardless love watching the videos.

[@astralromance9052]

Aminatou decklist is unavailable. Can you reupload decklist? Interested with it.

[@loganschwartz4790]

So that play with the oath of jace ended up mattering a lot. It allowed the mana to be open for mystical tutor that found the demonic consultation so that the game winning combo could be assembled. Normally in the past the minor mistakes didn't amount to anything, but i'd say this was devastating from a play perspective. Still a good game, and was fun to see combos you don't normally get in cedh.5

[@countqueso1286]

Unless the nexus of fate was in hand, Joseph should not have been able to be milled out. He should have been able to shuffle his nexus of fate into his library every time it was milled since there whould be two replacement effects that applied and it was his object that was affected. I dont know whether that would have changed the game but if he could produce atleast 1 more mana in nonland sources from his hand, he should have been able to win since he could produce the first seven mana from the board at the end. (But only once, he needed to either a land and an evasive creature/mana dork or a way to destroy the winter orb)

[@CasuallyCompetitiveMTG]

If I remember correctly I had Nexus of Fate, Nomads En Kor, a creature tutor and a few other misc cards in hand. I had all the pieces I needed, I was just looking for a good opportunity to use a few Derevi triggers to get enough untaps.

[@claudsfake2902]

ShinAkuma420 imo life drain tends to be a better win con in Amanatou than mill because you never know which decks have a Kozilek within them. I still run both though

@@claudsfake2902 I agree with you there. If they don't have kozilek than its most likely a Gaea's blessing if they running green. Life drain is harder to interrupt once it gets going.

joseph could target bloom tender to untap and response to that whit tapping it for bant after he can untap it get bant again 6 mana not 4 ^^

[@jish55]

The only mistake was Adam playing Felidar as early as he did, because anyone whose had experience with or against Aminatou knows Felidar Guardian is one of the most important pieces in an Aminatou deck and would have exiled it the moment it hit the field or countered it. Luckily he did have Spark Double, so if Felidar Guardian got removed, he could still make a copy of aminatou and repeat this process.

[@anteduluvian]

Super way late to this. But isn't nexus of fate a replacement? It never hits the graveyard, so the derevi player would have ended up with a one card library, and the mana to cast it?

[@anteduluvian]

Unless nexus was in hand...

[@ZilverTheFreak]

I was wondering, it's not really a misplay, but more of a missed opportunity. Couldn't Bill have tried to spin the top for the off chance he could hit a slaugther pact on the 3rd unknown card? It's an extremely low probability, but anything is better than dead.

Poderia ter colocado o tampo no topo

[@selkokieli843]

Beautiful game! Petition for a minor improvement: could you pay attention to using accurate rules terms when announcing played cards and abilities? For example, saying "As" enters for playing Cavern of Souls instead of "When", highlighting that it's a replacement effect instead of a triggered ability (and can't be responded to), or saying "lose life" instead of "take damage" for effects that do exactly that but don't technically deal damage. (Loss if life can't be prevented by preventing damage or trigger effects that require damage to be dealt, to name a couple relevant situations.) I think consistency with wording could really do work for everyones rules literacy and help with following game actions. It seems a good fit especially cEDH channels like yours because you care so deeply for quality rules-wise. edit. added an example, changed some writing. language matters :)

[@CasuallyCompetitiveMTG]

I will definitely make this more of a priority moving forward. Thanks for the feedback!

[@iamthehaus]

Let's see a Scarab God deck!!

[@timothyharrelson6645]

The Derevi player should not have been milled out completely. He had Nexus of Fate in his deck, which would go back into his deck instead of being milled. There was a Rest in Peace in play, but both RiP and Nexus are replacement effects of the same type so the player owning Nexus of Fate would be able to choose which replacement effect to apply. I imagine he would choose to not lose the game as he had mana enough to cast Nexus if he taps his own winter orb with Derevi's combat trigger and the Aminatou player didnt have a viable (non chump) blocker

[@Sliver_Boi]

Well it wouldn't be a casually competitive game without a few mistakes am I right ;) But for real we do try to catch as many mistakes as we can but as of right now we dont have an actual judge and usually no one extra to watch the game as it goes so it's usually the person taking game notes who has the job of trying to notice mistakes as the people playing might be in a "in the zone" mindset where they dont notice a card on the table after a while. Spmetimes we just dont see everything. It is also difficult sometimes to scrap a game because of a couple small mistakes as it can be a bit difficult for all of us to meet up and record/edit new games on non scheduled days. So sometimes we just have to use what we have. We do try to get better every game at spoting and stopping mistakes from happening.

[@Sliver_Boi]

Apologies for horrifying you, not really our intention. And our decklists are probably a bit different than others because we have a very different playgroup, as every group probably plays a bit different. We build our decks and include specific fringe cards that cater to our groups playstyles which could make certain cards seem "bad" compared to how other groups play a deck. We are trying to improve our level of play but it's a hard road. Most of us have been playing for years but we always played very casually. So in the past couple months we have tries playing way above our long time levels. It's a bit tough to get used to the playstyle sometimes.

[@Sliver_Boi]

@supafly supreme Ok I can understand that, at first it was very strange looking at cedh decks and just trying to figure out what was going on now. That even happens to me know. Since I'm building 1-2 decks a week for the channel I have to go through a lot of lists to figure out how certain commanders and combos actually work
