Be sure to wish Princess a happy birthday, everybody! 🎉

By the way, Alias, I have a non-Magic comment: Let Olivia know that in northern California, there is a county called Yolo County. I only made this comment after Olivia said something about doing something for the yolos. 😅

I love that Brian was either going to make an absolutely horrible deck Olivia would hate, or a deck that she would love, and she does love it and plays it every chance she gets, its actually so cute

[@losthermit6005]

Olivia is the queen of gaslighting! I don't know how many games I've watched now where she'll say 'I'm not doing anything over here' 'Why counter me? Why do that? It's not that big of a deal' 'She has more life! Attack her, not me!' ... Never trust Olivia! Attack her! Her vengeance is a small price to pay to avoid her popping off because of her dastardly deception. Fun game.

[@caseyfurey1348]

Battered Golem with Bootleggers Stash and Academy Manufactor could be even nuttier right? Tap land > make 3 artifacts > float 3 mana from the golem between 3 untap triggers, crack the treasure. Each land is worth 4 mana

[@aluviansprinter]

Yep, that works. It could get even nuttier because she had a Mirage Mirror that could become of copy of Academy Manufactor meaning she gets 3x Treasures, Clues, and Food per land, for 9-12 mana per tap.

[@kerbymerrick5735]

yes so she could have played her ulamog the turn she exiled it

[@Bammab127]

For that turn it's the same either mirror to golem or mirror to manufactor, but later turns golem cuz more artifacts enter than lands

[@remembertobreathe66]

Meaghan's deck is one of the best, most entertaining lists* I've encountered in a long time! Subtly pushing her product while playing with it is just the marketing genius cherry on top. *The price tag scared me until I saw which Sol Ring was selected.

Yay Infinitokens! I've seen them in use on these kind of channels for a while.

[@vawn520]

I don't know if I've seen Eilidh laugh so hard early on in the show but this was another great one! Really awesome guests and wishing Princess the best happiest of birthdays 😃

[@lightfut]

[@Samuel-nj4yy]

what is more terrifying how much Oliva went off this game how she played it, or that she could have used smugglers to make so many more treasures than she did that all could be tapped for a green. (and the food and clue's also because of academy golem)

[@GrizzneyGames]

That would be bonkers, but unfortunately, Meria only taps nontoken artifacts. 😢

Clearly this was a clinic on the classic piece of literature "The Art of Hangry and War." Peace was never an option.

Yeah, I built a Meria deck as soon as it was initially spoiled, to try to pull off all the same durdly shenanigans Olivia showcased expertly. Seeing my build run very close to Brian’s makes me feel good too lol. I’m just not running any beefy Eldrazi cuz I don’t own any (yet).

Shoutouts to Sarinth Steelseeker, the sheer utility of that card absolutely fueled Olivia's engine insanely well. One of my favorite cards from BRO and should be in any artifact deck that has green in it. Very fun episode, loved all the decks all around, and everyone cracking up every five minutes was a blast.

Olivia: I dont know why he thought I would like this *5 seconds later* Olivia: Im a monster... Definitely the problem LOL One of my favorites by far Thank you

[@RPGFanboy14]

I think Olivia could have cast that Ulamog. Cause Battered Golem doesn't specify Non-token artifacts. So if she tapped her lands to produce a treasure the other artifact creature says that she makes Treasure, Clue, and food instead, causing 3 untap triggers. She had 2 lands available so that would make 6 mana off the Battered golem alone, then tap the rest for green mana. Unless of course theres something I'm missing. Either way fun game! Love Meaghans deck which is the perfect ad for infinitokens. XD Happy birthday Princess.

[@jw5087]

Came to the comments to nerd out about this😉 Meria doesn't allow artifact tokens to be tapped for mana, but 6 mana from Battered Golem, cost reduction from Jhoira's familiar, tapping Mirage Mirror and Smuggler's Copter and sacrificing both treasures for mana makes one Ulamog. Took me a minute to figure out though. Doubt I could have done that live on camera.

[@RPGFanboy14]

@@jw5087 huh! Good to know, that's my bad then for not knowing the commanders ability. But yeah on camera when trying to keep a decent pace for a video I can't imagine noticing that either.

[@AlexBalhatchet]

That Melira deck is bananas 😂 For most of the game Olivia had put together a 3 card combo that meant her forests had “T: Add G” and “T: Create 3 Mox Emeralds” and she was activating the first ability because she knew she already was too powerful 🤯 ❤️💚 Happy birthday for a week or two ago Princess! 🥳

[@JohnDoe-vm1rr]

Meria's hability works only for non-token artifact or i miss something on your idea ? As a fresh Meria player, please tell me :)

For anyone wanting to build and play any of these decks there is a slight edit. Olivia has Drossforge Bridge in her deck list but it should be Slagwoods Bridge.

[@goberthicks]

Hehe I scanned the list into moxfield with my phone and didn't notice - then played it one time and asked Brian if he wanted me to get in trouble for having the wrong kind of land!!

[@DarthDavyJones1]

Did Meaghan draw the Ferngully Ice-T Lizard on her token?

[@dbotsis]

Why did Olivia sacrifice the treasure tokens for colorless mana? Didn't her artifacts have a tap for green ability?

[@dbotsis]

I found the answer to my own question...her commander taps nontoken artifacts for green. Missed that! Something about reading a card explains the card...what a crazy deck!

[@mcCoy0te]

Only non token artifacts

[@ingolf82]

10:30 that escalated quickly! I'm with Olivia on this... Old Gnawbone and bootlegger's stash make no sense, they should not have been green. Green treasure makers are blasphemous, but you run it in this deck because it's good. 52:15 what can you do? play vandalblast overloaded! if you do that, you blow up everything you don't control, including all of Olivia's lands. that would teach her not to play mycosynth lattice ever again ;) + it would win you the game because all their things are gone, there is no way they survive your army of kavu and all that for long.

[@TheCoyote808]

AliasV embodying the song HIT ME WITH YOUR BEST SHOT. Love this episode! Am I allowed to say that for every episode? If not I will do it anyway!

[@Blackadam36]

[@shaneinnes4681]

Olivia the Professor wants to know if you built that deck yourself?

[@bashlindsay7618]

You know what would be perfect in this situation?...... A Vandalblast. That would take care of the problem. BUt this is cool anyway with what Olivia is doing

[@GrizzneyGames]

That's what I thought! An overloaded vandalblast once everything was an artifact would have been stronger than a rift. 😅

[@josiahtoole4376]

Smuggler’s Copter is a vehicle, so it needs to be crewed to become a creature, right?

[@zackwilcox3183]

Just going to chime in with the rest and say i also have a Meria deck , Meria Myrs , just showcase Meria because she sorta looks like that era of Billie Eilish , so the deck's concept was her throwing a concert for the Myr. Myr Reservoir is the Stadium she's performing at , it's all really a stretch but it seemed like silly fun. That being said the deck doesn't really do much but play solitaire for awhile until I have Nylea and like Myr Galvanizer and some clone to pop off.

[@patrickaquilina4374]

Meaghan I love all your plants!!! ❤❤❤

[@cruelzancore1475]

When ulamog was exiled I'm pretty sure you could have casted that Olivia. Tapping both lands to make a treasure makes a treasure clue and food which are artifact which the battered golem would see enter and untap and u could tap him for green 6 times. Plus those 6 tokens u could tap for another 6 floating a total of 12 mana meaning using 11 to cast ulamog. This is an awesome deck and I want to play it

[@AreWangsholm]

I agree that it definitely looks like she could cast it, but not by tapping the tokens with Meria, she specifies non-token. Regardless, she did have several artifacts untapped in addition to the two treasures she would have had. So more than enough to cast Ulamog!

[@Tremulantone]

Olivia had Unwinding Clock, Mycosynth Lattice, and Blinkmoth Urn. When she was untapping her artifacts on each upkeep if she wasn't tapping the urn for a mana before their mains they should have been making colorless mana for each permanent on their board.

[@Tremulantone]

Didn't hear or see her do it the first times but she did announce it on Eilidh's turn, could have just been an editing thing.

[@jw5087]

Great episode as always!💙 What kind of deckbuilding revenge will Olivia unleash upon Brian?

[@thadrin]

Something in Blue-White control maybe.

[@isaiahwelch8066]

No need to. Olivia gets her revenge by playing her Lilliana deck and celebrating the diversity of Swamps. 😅

[@allisonchristie2754]

I'm kind of sad that nobody realized that Eilidh shouldn't have been able to ding Princess once she played first Sigarda since it gave Princess hexproof. Really wanted to see the look on her face :(

[@OmegaMTG]

Eilidh, look up Feldon's Cane so you have at least one cheap way to put your yard back in your library. :)

[@isaiahwelch8066]

With Feldon's Cane, you can only recur your 'yard once. Elixir of Immortality shuffles itself into the library, so you can basically do infinite life loss with Queza. You also need a way to cast Elixir at flash speed, so you can activate Elixir when you go to deck yourself. Way I did that was with Mind Over Matter, Liberator, Urza's Battlethopter, and either Thran Dynamo or Gilded Lotus. You could also do it with Mana Vault or Grim Monolith. All you need is 3 mana from a mana rock.

[@Halrian-Christopher]

Good Game, loved it. More please!

[@Blackadam36]

10:31 oh my god lmao

[@Bammab127]

Tap mirror and boots for 2 for mirror to copy battered, tap lands to make 2 each treasure and food and clue. That's 6 triggers for golems so respond by tapping as available that's 6. Tap new tokens for 6 more and that's 12 for eldrazi
