** IMPORTANT NOTES: 1. November 12 will have episode 22 round 3 of POST MALONE v PROF is happening and it's a nice long episode like most of you love. 2. Episode 21 that you are watching now was filmed in April way back before the Ban of Hullbreacher. We film lots of games not all games get to youtube. But this one was edited and had some fun moments we wanted to share before it got too old. We hope you can enjoy it. 3. This game was filmed before we started to film Rule 0, but at the table. We did bring multiple decks and the table agreed on all the decks in play, the rule 0 convo was play your fastest meanest decks! 4. The rest of the year will only have new episodes with Rule 0 included, since we now only film with Rule 0. 5. Plus this episode has Shirtless Cassius those are tats, that's not a shirt. What other channel will give you that?

[@767447674476744]

Was about to say TF about hullbreacher but understandable

[@drew941]

That at least explains why Lynch played a top tier cedh list. Surprised no one else had something cedh or close to it if you guys clarified fastest and meanest list.

[@michaeldlynch]

@@drew941 I even let them pick my deck too. I wish our Rule 0 was filmed. So ya’ll could see how it went.

[@loganhoppe7234]

I mean at least it's an example of a bad rule 0 conversation. Saying general things like "fastest" and "meanest" are obviously going to mean different things to each player. Also calling it cEDH is kind of what furthers the mentality that cEDH is bad when you showcase it kind of stomping other decks. If all people were on the same power level as Lynch which is the intention of cEDH, the game would have made more sense. I really just hope people don't watch this and think cEDH goes this way.

[@dumbdom4videos436]

@@michaeldlynch I think your amazing opening hand had a huge impact. The other players didn't have the right cards to stop that explosive turn and you balled out of control from there. Great stuff and stoked for prof and post soon, they have an amazing chemistry its hilarious

[@robertbauerle5592]

Lynch reminds me of this guy that my playgroup has at our LGS. He has a ton of old and expensive cards, and all of his decks are super good, but he never knows how to fully optimally play his turns so we let him get away with it lol.

[@JohnDoe-vc5qb]

I met a dude yesterday with a 6-7ish deck with a random timetwister in it. He bought it before I was even born lmao that was a funny age check to him when I told him that.

[@tylerrogers9773]

Literally. That’s how I felt watching him not make more thrulls with skull clamp out

[@Asianladylover4l]

He forgot about the proliferate trigger too

[@JUM-cw3ff]

What a toxic jealous mindset. I heard once "I'm attacking you because you have Arabia's night cards in your collection" or "I don't want to play with people having Gaeas Craddle" yet they play optimized decks too they just don't have those old rare cards and pretend the table can't do anything about it. You are saying you are being indulgent with that guy in your LGS or Lynch, while also saying "I'm jealous he has cards I couldn't get/afford but it's okay we let him get away with it because he sucks anyways." Like he had to have your permission smh lol. Like a lot of players say they are not sore losers yet they can't stand anything going on their opponent's board, only as long as they can win.

[@Asianladylover4l]

@@JUM-cw3ff when people play commander together they want the decks to be mostly balanced against each other. Usually it's not lynch with the spice but in this game is like he's playing a cedh deck with his Thoracle win vs super friends and such. Seems like this game lynch wanted to win and they didn't have a rule 0 discussion about what they are each playing.

[@edinnuir7518]

This goes somewhat toward Lynch being subconsciously targetted by people during later IHYD games xD

[@brucanthwood]

Lol you're right

[@leeleslieart]

"Why wouldn't she?!? She hasn't had a turn yet!!!" omg dying.

[@vincentaponte5726]

Talk about a card that should be banned or have never been printed. My playgroup and I don't allow alternate wincons like. It encourages people to play solitaire and never interact with opponents. I wouldn't even feel good about myself "winning" that way.

[@Andsio]

So i do a lot of cool stuff with my deck that are basically useless since my win con is a 2 card combo that i tutor and doesn't have anything in common with my deck beside the colours... Yeah super lame way, i wish it was banned officially or at least from content creator material

Lynch’s turn 1 cost more than any of my commander decks.

[@eduardoroman6036]

Only his manacript cost's more than my decks

[@Krunschy]

It cost more than all of my decks combined. If you take condition and version into account, it might even be more than all decks of my playgroup combined.

[@zackkelley2940]

Current market value of Lynch's turn 1 play- $1800 USD, give or take a couple hundred depending on condition and exactly which printing of Underground Sea that was. And, yes, that's a Masterpiece Series Mana Crypt >

[@ROMANTIKILLER2]

@@zackkelley2940 that Underground Sea has black borders, so it cannot be Revised or even Unlimited; it didn't look like it has square angles either, meaning that it cannot be a Collector or International Edition either.

@@Layjus123 Tbh I like cedh because of the level of interaction almost every step of the way. That being said i can see what you mean. However, the more I've watched cedh and started dabbling into it I think as much as the ending combos can be similar the fun is actually the journey to get to the win more than anything else but I totally get your point I guess each to their own! :)

[@LiberatorGalore]

I can’t agree, I still love “The command zone “. How far that channel came. However I do like watching “I hate your deck” cause they try to play CEDH rather than “casual” or “for fun”.

[@IceMetalPunk]

I prefer Command Zone's Game Knights, because between the production value and the intercut interviews/commentary, it's easier for me to follow 50 minutes into a game when my attention is waning. But obviously, I still love IHYD or I wouldn't be here watching it :D

[@SASORI55555]

I would say this and play to win are the best. I can watch game knights but the lower power level on top of the several cuts to several minutes long commercials AND KZbin ads regularly is really annoying as well as the cringe worthy interview dialogues they do. It looks pretty but that’s about it imo.
