I am a total newb. Trying to learn MTG. I found this helpful. It was a good general how to play video as well. Thanks for sharing.

[@triplemangothreat]

I’m glad to hear it! Thanks for watching!

[@fizzknight]

Great Vid. Never played commander before. Just bought 2 sets for me and my daughter to play. I haven't played in years and never played commander. Learned how to play with this vid + learned some of the new keyword abilities that weren't around back when I played. Thanks!

[@jacobduhthrowbak3226]

By far the most helpful video I have seen, thank you! Trying to get back into MTG after 20+ years, imagine my surprise learning about commander haha! Thanks again!

[@triplemangothreat]

Glad to hear it!

[@JohnMonkee]

[@triplemangothreat]

Glad I could help!

[@daltontornemalm9455]

[@triplemangothreat]

No problem

[@lewys9204]

I got one questions about commander - so how far back can we I clue cards from. If I got cards from 2010 can they play in 2023..

[@triplemangothreat]

You would have to check the EDH Ban List just in case.

[@MasonB88]

Thanks 🫡

[@triplemangothreat]

Welcome 🤗

[@ilyabrookwell780]

Can you play commander with only 2 players?

[@triplemangothreat]

Yes! Games can typically be played with 2-4 people. Sometimes 5+ people.

[@NeoChromer]

Super nice vid for us noobs

[@triplemangothreat]

Everyone starts somewhere. Glad I can help.

[@squashmeee]

What is upkeep?

[@triplemangothreat]

It’s a phase

[@builder_man4477]

Do you need sleeves or are those optional?

[@triplemangothreat]

Sleeves are optional, but highly recommended.

[@builder_man4477]

@@triplemangothreat I just sleeved my deck and now it keeps falling over but more importantly it wont fit in my deck box anymore, what do I do now, get a new deck box?

[@KingofKlubs]

wait, why do you need sleeves and a deck box to play? Arent they purely aesthetic?

[@triplemangothreat]

They are not needed, but help retain the condition of your cards. It does help with shuffling as well.

[@joedelarios1]

Very thorough 0 great for newbs

[@timothyalger8681]

You don't have to have sleeves or deck box those are optional same with dice

[@triplemangothreat]

They are optional, but still recommended.

[@BigTex65]

I would say a deck box and sleeves are pretty necessary.

[@thomasthemtman]

5:00 ... I thought the player who starts the game DOES NOT draw a card ?!?!!?!

[@triplemangothreat]

It depends. If the game is a 1v1, the starting player does not draw. If it is a 3 or 4 player game, the starting player draws.
