I personally think the Last Sword in the Cycle should have a spot, I mean it’s protecting from blue bounce effects and black spot removal and grants graveyard instant/sorcery utility. Certainly not the strongest but certainly a card to give a nod to :)

not only its super obvious, I mean its a total 5 mana to play and equiped + it needs to be done at sorce speed it also doesnt really provide you if a way to hit the oponent unless black and blue is everything they have, in which case they might just blow up your creature before its equipped or bounce the actual equipment, after that all you get is a survey 2 and maybe one free spells, its just too many maybes

@@pedrof6767 Perhaps so but then remember, Mono Blue and Mono Black isn’t all that unpopular, you’ll have your time to shine against them. Obviously timing is key, you play it when your opponent is tapped, both the equipment and the equip cost. A lot of Maybes but a lot of thinking it through too. Any of the swords is worth playing I’d say, some give busted effects like untapping lands, others make you ramp which is cool, others just deal 2 damage and draw, not that great for commander but still. The thing at hand is that your argument would make any commander costing 5 or more also unviable in any way or form. Look, you could run Muldrotha, but it’s gonna be killed immediately, run cheaper. You play Winota, but she gets countered, run cheaper. Play Isamaru, but a turn 1 Mono white commander isn’t very good, you have no chance to win past turn 6. A lot of ifs but a lot of maybes is what makes the game interesting.

Invasion of Kaldheim looks like one of the best wheel effects ever, giving you one extra turn of access to your previous hand. A perfect fit for any RX exile-matters decks (Bell Borca, Nassari, Prosper, Faldorn), and the back side is fine. I'm always on the market for things that tap Kalamax down, so any new convoke instant is intriguing. Meeting of Minds seems like a perfect fit, while Invasion of Arcavios gives me an extra target to attack and a cheap Swarm Intelligence.

@pressing_buttons Жыл бұрын
The fact that it doesn't put you up on cards really makes things awkward. One of the things that makes the og wheel so strong is you could vomit your hand and then guarantee a fresh 7, and the invasion leads to awkward situations where you wanna not play spells to try and play the invasion first before dumping your hand which is just unnatural sequencing. Can't play your mana rocks/rituals first, gotta hold them (and have extra mana) so you draw more cards off your invasion. In decks that synergize with it there's potential for sure but idk that I'd play it outside of specific lists

12:36 Using Chain Lightning, while controlling the very thing you wish to destroy... The Founders are wise! You know, it reminds me of how, remember in "Broken Link", when the female changeling told Garak there were no Cardassian survivors from the battle in "The Die is Cast"? That in fact all Cardassians were already dead? And then through a series of events The Founders pretty much saw to the deaths of a significant chunk of the Cardassian population? Controlling the thing you wish to destroy can be very effective.

I love your content bro. I know I'm just a lowly commenter, but I've been supporting your content since I was in college and missing the smell of freshly opened booster packs. I remember when all I had were 3 decks that my brother helped me make. A mono red burn deck, a golgari scavenge deck, and an animar edh deck. They all got stolen at a card shop after a draft tournament and while I was in college I didn't have any money to replace them. That's around when I started watching your videos. Your videos helped me a lot. To save money, feel better, and keep my love for magic alive. Thank you so much for what you do, and I wish you safety and peace in your future bro.

Surge of Salvation is one of my faves.

You brought up almost all the cards I think are going to be really good except one. As someone who runs a LOT of basic lands in my decks, I tend to run Explosive Vegetation alongside the standard Cultivate and Kodama's Reach. As such, Invasion of Zendikar is in pretty much every deck, a better version of that card. It costs exactly the same amount, finds exactly the same number of basic lands, but has the benefit of being able to be flickered (in decks that can do that) recurred, and if it's defeated effectively gives you a third land. In any deck that's not recurring or copying spells, this battle is going to be strictly better. And on the note of ramp... while it's not very well costed, I LOVE that with Fertilid's Favor you can really politic since you can choose an opponent to get +1/+1 counters or search for a land. I'm going to watch and see how it does, but I also think Cut Short is potentially going to be very good here. Granted planeswalkers aren't often that great in commander, but when someone does tend to get one like an Elspeth, Sun's Champion or Tamiyo, Field Researcher out, they typically have little trouble defending them and have ultimates that can be very problematic. So being able to, for free and at instant speed, destroy a planeswalker feels like a handy tool to have. And in the event there are no planeswalkers, it still can target an attacking threat, or even powerful mana producers like Elvish Archdruid or Priest of Titania.

First of all, thank you professor for bringing me back to magic once again, as you did in 2017. I've been playing on and off since the 90's. I started playing in exodus and Wall of nets was a monster. Now, it would be a nuisance at most. Boy do i miss Urza's saga... But i digress. This time, i have to say i enjoyed Ravnica and War of the spark. Missed the whole school thing and skiped kamigawa. Now i returned once again for Phyrexia, since it stired up memories... I don't really enjoy it. I don't like the toxic and poison counters. I find it annoying that not only do i have to worry about my life pool, also don't accumulate 10 poison counters, since i lose anyways. Let's see what the next set brings. Hopefully, something more "traditional"? history wise, it's a different story. I'm enjoying it. Once again, thank you for your work. Amazing as always!! Best wishes from Argentina!

I feel like Invasion of Ravnica has potential to do well in Commander. Colorless single target removal that can exile an annoying creature, artifact, enchantment, planeswalker or battle as long as it's not two colors seems like pretty solid removal for 5 mana. And if you're in a multicolor deck that can take advantage of the creature on the back side, even better.

good evening Professor one card as a 99 honorable mention i would like to suggest is polukranos reborn. a 3 green generic legendary hydra that is a 4/5 with reach. it also has 6 and phyrexian white mana to transform into Polokranos engine of Ruin, a 6/6 reach lifleink phyrexian hydra that has "Whenever Polukranos, Engine of Ruin or another nontoken Hydra you control dies, create a 3/3 green and white Phyrexian Hydra creature token with reach and a 3/3 green and white Phyrexian Hydra creature token with lifelink." do i here wormcoil engines coming back into play with this new hydra?

I’ve actually finally hopped on the bandwagon with buying singles. I can’t justify spending the money on boxes with the rate that WotC is pushing content plus the price jacking they’ve been doing.

So as someone who only plays commander would you say it’s not worth going to the local prerelease since I have no real needs for the packs off and I could just preorder the singles?

I feel like this set might actually be worth getting a box or 2. There seems to be a LOT of commander playable cards in here. All the teamups/battles/praetors etc. Singles will still be better but I feel like there isn’t that much unplayable bulk here. Could just be me but this set feels like it was designed more for commander rather than standard.

Man, I could listen to the prof talk about star trek for hours, even though I'd probably disagree with a couple of his opinions (DS9>TNG) I was kinda bothered when the goo face said that Vadic was expendable, since the whole deal about the founders and changelings is how much they care about their species and their survival. But the latest episodes seemed to hint that, while Vadic and her crew are Changelings, goo face is not, so now I'm super excited to find out who the real antagonist/s might be. Although I wish we had more of Vadic and she had a better ending, she was superb in my opinion as a villain.

8:08 The separate concepts of Wrenn and then also The Realmbreaker when spoken of together in the third person are. Wrenn and the Realmbreaker, the concept as a single Magic the Gathering card however is. Wrenn and the Realmbreaker conceptualized as mono-green, when a very key element of the plot involving their intersection and interaction is very much about fire, is a flavor fail.
