Okay. Playtest card thread. The Knight of Weeks - Rachel Weeks The Asker of More Mana - Derik from One More Mana The Curve Keeper - Chase (Manacurves) The Keeper of Favorite Cards - Shivam? (GhirapurGears?) The Value Knight - Josh Lee Kwai The Crab Queen - Voxy The Fish Brewer - Seth, possibly known as SaffronOlive The Rhystic Storyteller - Rhystic Studies The Keeper of Dark Pacts - Dark Pact Cosplay. The Disciple of Vess: Thought this was Olivia for a bit, but I think it's Taalia Vess (Cosplayer). The Knight of Land Drops - Jimmy Wong The Crimson Avenger - Crim The Crafter - Olivia Gobert-Hicks, Max Level Jewelcrafter The Spike Cactus - Jim LePage (Could just be all of TSF) The Bear Force Pilot - Graham Stark, LRR The Roaring Toeclaws - Tappy The Water Maro - Mark Rosewater?

The Duke of Midrange - Reid Duke The Rebellious Intelligence - Rebell Son

I mostly agree but I think the fish brewer is Phil because he is brewer's kitchen on MTG Goldfish. Otherwise I think this list is super impressive. :)

I really love these videos going over all the playtest cards I never got to see! I have to make a slight correction though, at 14:24 you said Urza's Hot Dog Stand was Magic's first vehicle land, and while it's the first Food Crew land, The Useless and Beligerent Island from the Unknown Minneapolis event was actually the first vehicle land.

Gavin I've got a question. How come for new sets there are never any standard precons? Instead of focusing on just commander precons why not make standard precons for each set? it feels like its a missed opportunity, I mean could you imagin if they where done for universes beyond? it would be a brilliant way to get more people into standard and into the wider game and include a lot of reply value in the cards. It would also stop people looking just for commander staples when ever a set comes out and ditching the rest of the cards. It would help get people to stick at the game as well because commander is such a hard game to get into for new players. Often needing lots of experience to know how to make best use of the cards. yes this is true for any game, but by the time that happens a new set has come out and makes new player feel like they have missed out or waisted their time/money.
@overoverme6 ай бұрын
Unknown event is always fun, but without CMM packs I heard lots of people around me confused why we were building commander decks, as even with the playtest cards it was kind of awkward building lists. Also, didn't know Planeswalkers could be commanders, we didn't hear and I never saw that sheet during the event. :/
