I Hate Your Deck #28 Najeela v Ur Dragon v Toxrill || Commander Gameplay MTG

[@alanpep]

This is probably my favorite group this show has ever had. Im so glad we got a second episode of them and hope you have them on many more times in the future.

[@IHateYourDeck]

Good thing we have more of the MK coming up in future episodes!

[@denniswijker7162]

fully agree, so far this has been my favourite group. They all just OOZE having fun. Hell they seem to have more fun playing, no matter the circumstances, than any pod I've ever been a part of!

[@mindustrial]

Rachel makes every episode 10 times better

[@paulwatts765]

I feel like this group has a great dynamic and some of the most pleasant attitudes. Attitude makes so much difference in MTG content!!

[@theandyizzyshow]

Rachel and Olivia are amazing guests to have on. Any show they’ve been on Ive thoroughly enjoyed that game. I’d love to sit at that table laughing like that. Last year was tough for me so it would be nice to distract myself with some magic with friends.

[@joshuajohnson2532]

Lynch is the kind of magic player I want to be. Even when he things aren't working for him, he's clearly having fun playing!

[@bryandegroat857]

I'm the same way, I usually lose but have a blast anyways

[@SGTN00BIAN]

Same, as being a Tergrid/Toxrill Player myself I go into a game expecting to get clapped and have fun getting clapped.

Waiting on the double attack trigger commander. Thinking of going exalted with equipment and auras that double power on attack.

[@stevelew8843]

Agreed Joshua!

[@shadowpsyke]

IHYD really has become the gold standard for how a person should act when playing with others. Someone has to win, and sometimes you get screwed, but that doesn't have to stop you from having fun hanging out with friends. Lynch's positivity despite having basically a non-game is something I respect so much. For a name that implies getting salty, the players on this show never seem to let someone else's deck get under their skin either. There's nothing that will kill your love for a game faster than popping off and seeing everyone else get upset. On a side not, more Kibler dragon content makes me swoon.

[@S1L3NTDr460n]

Guests this season have been awesome. Hope to see the professor this season too! Hint hint 🤣

[@shatterhand01]

I just love the new vibe this season. This is actually people being friends and having fun together. I also like that while the commanders are powerful, the whole power level seems to be toned down a bit so we actually get to see every deck do something. Keep up the great work!

[@markschneider8698]

Between the Command Zone, The Professor and I Hate Your Deck I started playing magic again after a 20 year hiatus. I’m sad I sold my cards from when I was a kid. I started during unlimited’s run when I was in middle school.

[@kingfuzzy2]

Yep a friend of mine returned after the same length of hiatus I'm so happy for you discovering new things about mageecs it's going to be a blast.

[@Hailme75]

I returned after a 20 year hiatus too, lost most my cards in a flood during my downtime. 3 years ago, a coworker gave me a commander deck he built for me and I’m hooked again.

[@DarkPikachuYTV]

[@Shady_minivan]

I have to also suggest watching Mitch at The Commander's Quarters. He does tons of fun budget builds and other great content

[@steveolie985]

SAME HERE BUDDY< UGH

[@LRSSkySoldier]

If Brian took Olivias Najeela with Dragonlord Silumgar instead of Bloom Tender, I'm assuming he could have won on the spot with infinite attack triggers due to the Old Gnawbone creating tons of treasure tokens each combat paired with Goldspan Dragon.

[@avatarofpapermagic]

So Hyped, absolutely amazing guests. Can't love these 4 people anymore than I do, just great friends loving playing paper magic together 🤙

[@styfen]

Seems like Lynch is happiest when he's the Arch Enemy. Which of course you are as soon as you reveal that Toxril is in the command zone.

[@dominik1993sagner]

In our playgroup somehow the Toxrill player made the other people think that my Simic Merfolks were the real threat ... 3 End Steps later they understood my warnings...

[@gielvanarkel4867]

Apart from the many, slightly salted giggles in between, this was a nice math exercise for Brian. 😆 The sass and the laughs around the table made this fun.

[@awkwardlycharming]

I can hear flicking the entire episode and it is fantastic, so nostalgic from his grind days haha. This group is fantastic.

[@kingfuzzy2]

It's fitting as kibler is the first to make it popular in competitive play.

[@MrPuzzoncello]

35:55 "All I do is attack with dragons and the numbers are big" A quote to put into a frame on the wall

[@TheFoxlover93]

Glad I'm not the only one looking at that. I was like "uh...what you drawing from boyo!"

[@denniswijker7162]

Wait there's people who don't like Olivia? She's been my absolute favourite mtg player since I first saw her at a LRR thing (it was the one where she had besties hats for her and Adam). If there is one person who's giggles make me cry with laughter it is definitely Olivia :P

[@mysticcatmunchr360]

I feel like she sometimes complains to much but I don't not like her lol. She's the best and hoenslty the humor and style is kinda similar to my own so I ain't got room to talk lol. If she or anyone at IHYD sees this I love you all don't hate me please

Love the chemistry between all of you. Always great content. Also glad to see Kibler in his element and away from hearthstone.

[@herra16]

Awesome episode Im halfway through and loving it. Great chemistry on the table. The way BK looked at Olivia while flicking his cards pretty much sums up the whole game. There is a great flow and the game doesnt seem drawn out.

[@jakebswenka]

The best part wasnt about dragons running over everyone or any puns....it was Brian not remembering that his Ur-Dragon lowers the cost of dragons in the Command Zone. he kept tapping for the full cost without realizing the "cost 1 less" that he had from turn 1

[@AricHaldan0782]

What do you mean ? He cast Dromoka for 6, Ojutai for 4 and Gnawbone for 6 mana. He didn't mention the discount, but he used it multiple times.

That Dragon's Approach deck was so close to popping off. I was really looking forward to seeing that but alas, flooding out at the crucial moment will getcha.

[@GravePacked]

I don't think Brian could've cast the temur ascendency when he did based on the mana he had out, but sweet game regardless.

[@dnthymamai]

@20:13 THANK YOU RACHEL! EVERYONE ELSE says "negative counters" but when they see a +1/+1 , they say "plus one / plus one counter" . If we say "plus one / plus one" then it's only logical (and easier to the tongue) to also say "minus one / minus one". Why does everyone say "negative one / negative one ... " ?? I haven't seen any of them saying "positive one / positive one" ! Here it is: Plus =/= Minus Positive =/= Negative They can learn it in primary school. Thx so much Rachel !! :-D

[@Oopsall]

I use minus one minus one. It makes sense

Glad you noticed the timer. Trying to communicate to ya’ll.

[@RedCometNurse]

Angry, sweary Olivia is hilarious. I have also uttered the words "I have already played a land because I am *dumb*" before with my Dragon's Approach deck as well. I am pretty sure the deck concept gave me brain damage.

[@oldbones7726]

Thank you for a great hour of escapism. It was really nice to see Rachel, Olivia and Brian return for a rematch. The personal interaction makes for a truly entertaining video, not to mention the game play holds our attention. Yes, Brian's math lessons were appreciated all of us have had difficulties with advanced math at various times. It was nice to discover Lynch has some difficulty with the colors and math, it shows us that we are all human. Seeing Brian's dragon deck punish everyone was an experience after the last match. Great play, great video, and I can't wait for the next one.

[@Cssfallout]

Yo Lynch, I love your work and the show man. Yawgmoth's proliferate ability requires you to discard a card at 31:19 the other ability where you pay life and sacrifice a creature draws a card.

As someone who built Toxrill after pulling the Pre-release foil version of him, Lynch's experience with the deck is accurate. You absolutely need protection ready and usable when you put Toxrill out.

[@Dhips.]

Someone in my pod plays it. It gets targeted hard.

[@TimStamper89]

It's 100% Kill on site and effectively an archenemey game at that point Played a Chao and he was a bit salty we went for him but afterwards he acknowledged he understood why we did. He had ways of getting it back and protecting it etc and we spent 7 or 8 turns just trying to remove him. Quality card though

@@murphyspell7125 Agreed, some cards just have that effect, whether it's justified that game or not. It bugs the hell out of me during commander games when people just start assuming threat over 1 card that's on the table, irrespective of the players board state at that time. That being said, magic is hard and so is doing proper threat assessment in a game, stuff can go HAM in an instant and mistakes will be made.
