Phil is history's greatest monster for playing his lands like that on camera.

[@chriscullen9743]

To be fair, it's the way we used to play it, (back in the 90s...)

[@Cyberium]

He plays Phyrexian black. :3

[@MrPhilGee]

Chris Cullen thank you - I was a student under the OG 90s guys & learned to play this way. I find it so silly that people get triggered..

[@Cyberium]

@@MrPhilGee They need a Phyrexian mechanic that gradually contaminates people's land, so you can take it and put it at the front. XD

[@MrPhilGee]

Cyberium LOL that was what it felt like just playing around the old timers, one day you just put your lands in front & stopped asking silly questions

[@ragingmollusk2640]

"9 goblins at Phil for playing his lands in front." You're doing God's work there friend!

[@PiIgrim]

I was about to make this comment hahah. Always gold content on this channel.

[@atwistedsky9169]

Lands played in front... and TWO Sol Rings??? That monster!!!

[@Karmic_Guide]

Reading the Stormlight Archive, with a Tien at the table... what a life

[@zabadoo2898]

Spencer Muhlestein that series is so good! Can’t wait for the next one.

[@willemboele2079]

13:43 purphoros wasn't a creature anymore on tien's board, he did not have 5 devotion to red or i miscounted

[@willemboele2079]

oh you said that 3 seconds after, apologies :)

[@Shadowof1ife]

I agree purphoros wasn’t a creature

[@RobMedellin]

Came to say the same, but was sure some one had already said it

[@magnusmagicus1977]

[L1] here: indeed Purphoros was a legal target to steal with the Ray, but the moment it came under his control, it stopped being a creature because his devotion to red was only 3. So he could not have blocked or sac it to Ashnod's Altar. Oh well :)

[@AidanWR]

"Nine Goblins go at Phil for playing his lands in front." I was going to make a comment on how he should be focused for doing that :P

[@oscarchan7196]

On your turn 10, if you hadn't lost Purphoros to that misplay, you would've been able to deal 18 damage to both opponents. Cast Krenko for 6, equip Illusionist's Bracers for 3, and activate Krenko. First activation gets you 3 goblins (6 damage), and the second gets you 6 goblins (12 damage). Then you can kill off either opponent with the hasty goblins.

[@MiagolioMaxwell]

Phil was role-playing a Legendary Horror Minion very well this game. Only a true monster would play their lands in front.

[@jaded2269420]

Emry and k’rrik? You have my attention.

[@V2ULTRAKill]

K'rrik is so much fun

[@smolclips5996]

Tien seems to like throwing other people's cards. That's usually disrespectful where I play

[@bloodwire0]

I know right constantly. Super disrespectful. I would not play with him anymore after this. Or atleast give him a warning

[@flare6255]

Yeah, he seems a bit rough with other's cards. I flinched when he tossed Tan's Emry into his graveyard by reaching across Tan.

[@thedog7494]

he didnt throw it, he lightly tossed it..

[@bloodwire0]

That is still disrespectful. You can clearly see he is tossing them. Even "lightly tossing" them is disrespectful. 10 out of Tien would not play with that guy agian or i would tell him not to touch my board and i will do it.

[@jeromesontag5276]

Mhmm

[@crovax1375]

I suppose that Phil having two Sol Rings makes up for nobody playing a turn one Sol Ring, but try not to let that happen again! ;)

[@aderarch]

I think the first Sol Ring is the one he stole with Praetor's Grasp?

[@DarkEinherjar]

When Tien stole Purphoros, he stopped being a creature because Tien didn't have enough devotion. He could not have blocked with or sacrificed him.

[@DummyUrD]

Yes I was thinking in my mind, oh you want to steal Purphoros? Okay, resolves... Go to blocks Purphoros blocks Chainwhirler ... he can't he is not a creature anymore.

[@MTGMuddstah]

Right. I'm sure in hindsight if we had realized it, he would have grabbed the chainwhirler instead.

[@DummyUrD]

@@MTGMuddstah yes, that would have been optimal, I was just sad that you didnt realize it :D

[@UberHaxorFoxHound]

Tien is very aggressive with other people’s cards like yikes. Rather play with someone who puts lands in front 😂

[@phatbastard0alkaline]

Yeah, that was a bit offputting. Its like a dude that tapping my Serra's Sanctum with his finger multiple times after he stole it with a spell. I def had an extra eye on it.

[@giraffesofluffy8070]

Tien indeed missplayed, purphoros lost the creature status when he took control of it. Had that weird interaction once with my play group, haha.

[@AffinityForCommander]

Emry looks like a very powerful commander! I stuck her straight into my Breya deck! 😁

[@V2ULTRAKill]

Emry shines most as a commander tbh

[@yubeeeep]

emry reduction cost makes her really resilient compared to urza in my oppinion. I also loved tien's steins gate zero mat love that anime series so much.

[@V2ULTRAKill]

Urzas big thing is his immunity to things like winter orb

[@jonasdietrich8109]

El Psy Congroo

[@theliving1037]

K'rrik has a hidden textbox that states if you play this opponents must kill you as fast as possible. It's really weird, but very true.

[@FordSimmons-Est]

This Tien person needs to handle other folks’ cards more respectfully.

[@AstridCeleste96]

Jesus, for real. Would never play with someone like that.

[@Scurvyfro]

[@natespringer9934]

[@Zaros2400]

I have a mighty need for that K'rrik decklist.

[@CullenGandyTenor]

I love the Bach as a background.

[@voxkine9385]

What sort of outright MONSTER plays lands in front?!? Gg wp! Making a Yasova deck for myself atm.

[@sh00vie]

Would love to see that K'rrik list, 2 videos with it now and no decklist :(

[@soulflaya2271]

A loooong time ago I had a yasova dragonclaw deck. One of my opponents had animar as his commander with like 12ish counters? I stole it with an act of treason or something, then cast give/take on it during my second main phase to draw like 15 cards! It was glorious!

[@GaucheEtVeule]

Dat Steins;Gate 0 mat got my attention, along with Yasova

You just shove the standard suspects of mono-Blue artifact infinites honestly. She's redundancy in the Command Zone.

[@The_Hist]

It is.... I play it my self, however it's not cheap. The moxen are a must

[@ujai5271]

Emry got hated out pretty strongly, being killed on sight and coming in tapped for most of the game, but was still able to win. Very strong showing, although I would have liked to see what happens with some mass artifact removal from the red decks.

[@perrydaplat1232]

You should call your Krenko deck Kranky Krenko because it is Agressive

[@Ballpython77]

Go K'rrik. my man!!!! hope he plays well, wins and want to know your thought on him.

[@obed6901]

Why are Phil's lands in front of his creatures?

[@Gauche69]

I mean, WOTC even created a rule that you cant play lands in front... I feel like ppl who do that do so to disrupt people’s thought as we all know that magic players are a little OCD.

[@MrPhilGee]

Antonio Sousa go check 90s footage of MTG

[@Gauche69]

MrPhilGee they also didnt sleeve their moxes and black lotus back then... so... what is your point? :p

[@MrPhilGee]

Antonio Sousa Antonio Sousa For starters your feeling is absolutely wrong. That is the magic I was exposed to as a young kid, everyone was playing with their lands in the front & one day I started doing it as well. There is nothing about an “edge” (if you will) or anything to gain - its a simple custom. I find it silly that ppl get so triggered, especially in a casual setting, because to me its the same reaction ppl have when they see a religious custom they dont like, or when teachers cant stand someone with a hat on inside; how is this person directly harming you ? Wizards made the rule for SANCTIONED & televised/recorded/featured events just incase what you said is indeed in the mindset of a player - to remove that from the playing field & keeping it balanced. In a sanctioned event, I have been asked politely if I can play with my lands behind my creatures by my opponent & I reply “of course” because the person was polite & we are in a sanctioned event. if he is bothered or disturbed & it it may affect his play, he will vocalize it. However in a casual setting if youre triggered , the problem derives from yourself & not the person with the lands in the front. I hope these points make more sense

[@Gauche69]

MrPhilGee That is a very naive / individualistic approach to a game that is played at least as 2 players. It would be like saying “I tap my land by turning them upside down instead of sideways and if you have a problem with it you should go talk to your therapist”. MtG is highly complex and structured, and it has a massive content of rules because of it. The game must operate in a certain form in order for it work well for everyone. The fact that someone has to feel bothered and vocalize it to you in order for you to play by the same rules as everyone else demonstrate that you don’t care about the other players. You are not playing the game with other people, you are playing the game and the other people are there to entertain you. :) Do I trully think that? No, I don’t. But you said my “my feeling are wrong” and gave your reasoning, my point was to give a reasoning as well. In reality, I just think you shouldn’t play the lands on the back because, clearly, most of people don’t. The same way you learned to sleeve your cards and use a playmat, you could learn to play your lands on the back :)

[@MrPhilGee]

Antonio Sousa I do understand what you are saying, but playing lands in the front does not comprimise the structure or integrity of the game, nor does it hinder it. Im not changing rules, or structure at all, I use the exact same rules & structure - I just position my board differently. Your example is very extreme & not at all similar to mine, nor does your comment show that you have read mine properly. I made a point of showing my preference & respect during both casual & sanctioned(competitive, for money, tournament) play; Ive played against many people in tournament, even judges, & only a handful of individuals, maybe less than three times, has someone actually said “can you please play with your lands in theback” in 20 years !! Naive ? I dont think so - naive is believing you can only play blue, & all your decks have to be in ultra pro black sleeves. Being a Magic player is showcasing your preferences or personality with decks, colors, cards & even sleeve colors. Try to understand that & not get caught up in this nerd elitist mentality, thats not how Magic used to be, it should not & never be that , & I am showcasing that it is not that on my watch

[@thaddeuspaulbrillantes2482]

I was expecting a Pyrite Spellbomb on that KCI infinite mana combo, then I remembered about color identity.

[@DarkEinherjar]

Just replace the Spellbomb with Walking Ballista and it'll be okay.

Hey Muddstah! Just wanted to ask if you had a favorite card in the 99, For the sake of a deck I am working on featuring streamers favorite cards all brought together into an abomination of nature. Currently I have krenko or proshh, but those are more commanders than 99, so which is your favorite for the non commander slots?

I love Ashling's Prerogative lol.

[@myrical4147]

Yeeees an emry deck!

[@TCG9777]

love the mats

[@dustinsanity85]

The player who is playing their lands in front dies first, even before the blue player, and prioritized over planeswalkers, 100% of the time. They're actively being annoying to be annoying. There's no benefit to playing with lands in front other than being different for no reason, and it makes it harder to focus on what you have on the battlefield from an opponent's perspective. Lands are the least threatening cards that enter the battlefield, so the nonland cards should be in a prominent position that is visible from a glance. I'm sort of astounded at how many mistakes were made in this match. It was fun to watch. I looked up Yasova on youtube for gameplay purposes and found this. You have yourself a subscriber.

Losing your purphoros like that definitely mattered 😅 he couldnt have blocked using it or sacrifice it because his devotion wasnt high enough… with purphoros, you couldve definitely take a player out and finish off the next one on ur next turn

@@MTGMuddstah His name before transforming was Kerrick, which should probably be pronounced "Keh-rik". "Kee-rik is not so far afield that I would have a problem with it. What really drives me up a wall is "Crik". Even if you ignore the hint given by his name while in disguise, an apostrophe in the middle of name indicates a pause, so you wouldn't combine the K and R sounds into "CR", but instead get "Kh [pause] rik"

Unfortunately for you and your gang, WotC have actually forbidden playing your lands in front in tournament play. Also most game stores will frown upon it, at best, because it's very distracting and takes the attention away from your boardstate, thus giving you an unfair advantage in multiplayer games especially, seeing as each player is having to deal with multiple boards as well as their own.
