@@ipsyop With Richard, I am not always sure. He is so good in flying (pun intended) below the radar and then popping off and winning. I wonder if he sometimes makes the sub-optimal choice just to manipulate the table.

[@ipsyop]

@@koenvandepoll927 nah, if Crim breathes in any game Richard hard targets him, like look at recently when when he completely threw the game with the mole god just running rampant. there's a lot of things Richard does and says that are tbh extremely frustrating, and imo he only fly's under the radar because he's just not ever really that much of a threat/consistently just makes bad plays.

didn't they messed up the cascade triggers from the Hydra? They resolve the 1st spell but the 4th should be cast first...

[@EldenaDoubleca5t]

the contrast between Princess and Chase flirting with each other the whole game, Prof bullying Crim, and Crim being salty but winning anyway really captures the social dynamics at an average commander table

[@inkliizii]

Prof: "I don't have any forests, so..." Also Prof: *sitting right next to a Yavimaya*

[@TheUrDragon25]

He means he doesn't have any cards named Forest. Extraplanar lense cares about the name of the card. He meant he had no cards named Forest to tap for double mana.

[@CaptVooDooGaming]

1:38:23 so worth seeing Crim IMMEDIATELY start sweating the BIGGEST bullets and then the sigh of relief. Lmfao

[@ALTR_no_EGO]

On one hand, I'm proud of Crim, for confronting his greatest enemy, Green. Him and Prof have so much, "look what you made me do" energy, it's hilarious. Princess and Chase were being delightful, in a completely different pod. 😂😂

[@AlienValkyrie]

1:26:00 JUDGE! The copies created by Storm are not cast; they are created directly on the stack. (The easy way to remember this is that if they were cast, they'd trigger their own Storm ability.) Also, later, at 1:38:01 - Crim does have a maximum hand size 2 from Recycle, since it entered later and hand-size-modifying effects apply in timestamp order.

[@justinkopy3354]

Is Crim resolving the multiple cascade triggers correctly throughout the video? I was under the impression that the first card you cascade into would be the last you resolve when you have multiples.

[@therealax6]

@@justinkopy3354 All four cascade triggers go on the stack. Then the topmost trigger resolves, which lets you cast a spell, which itself goes on top of the stack (on top of the three cascade triggers still there). So the first spell resolves before the other three cascade triggers do.

[@allamericannonamerican7658]

He misspoke then resolved the storm correctly, only drawing one card from up the beanstalk tho.

[@AlienValkyrie]

@@justinkopy3354 No yeah; the cascades do happen one at a time like that. Each cascade trigger finds the next card off the top and lets you cast it; when you do it gets put on top of the stack, above the other cascade triggers, so it resolves before the next cascade trigger finds the next card.

[@skylercleeves6276]

judge! at 1:16:48 when princess takes 1 damage from the creeping bloodsucker it should be 0 because Gisela halves damage rounded down

[@jimmydoescardtricks5057]

I love Crims reaction to Yu Yu Hakusho and how it’s the same reaction that Prof has to the Trix rabbit not being recognized 😂

[@psymar]

I loved what I saw of Yu Yu Hakusho but I haven't seen much past the first season or two, so I didn't recognize half the characters. Frankly I wouldn't have recognized Pu if I hadn't seen Botan

[@CAPTAINCHAOS_]

The best teachers are those that help guide their students to learn things for themselves! The Prof guiding Crim down the path of green is just a teacher doing what’s right! Not Prof’s fault that Crim fell asleep in class. Again.

[@JKXYGolden]

Princess Weekes! So excited to watch, I've hoping she'd feature on another episode of Shuffle Up and Play ever since watching her "guest lecture" on vampires on the Tolarian campus....

[@sageboutelle8826]

The fact that prof gave crim a syllabus is amazing

[@dhalden93]

Princess weekes, comment "prof have you never run a gov't before?" was amazing.

[@joancotilla]

I loved the interactions this game, Chase in particular was so funny. Also not that it really mattered, but as both the Second Doctor and Recycle modify hand size, they apply on the order they were cast, making the final hand size two.

[@squirtlekitty5613]

Ahh I know clover alters! We sell her stuff at my LGs too! Gorgeous work!!

[@fredt1983]

Always love Crim, but always surprised that the 2nd nicest guy in MTG hasn't shown up. Much like the prof, _Seth otherwise known as Saffron Olive_ is heartwarming.

[@wesleykaopio3480]

I so agree seeing Seth on an episode of Shuffle up and Play would literally make my year

[@gonzluisd]

Please no.

[@jacobp8306]

Whoa.... He hasn't been on?

[@TimmytheSorcerer]

18:52 Caltrops, never knew this card existed, love it. A reference to the epic 2/1 wall in the Legends expansion Wall of Caltrops.

[@bleachisback]

Presumably it's a reference to the actual real-life thing called "caltrops"

[@Silphanis]

That card goes hard in Sydri, Galvanic Genius. With WUB open you can always threaten killing all attackers, it's a nice stalling tool

[@a7wingedsheep]

Hold on a sec, at 1:16:46 as a result of controlling gisela, the 1 damage that would normally hurt the gisela player gets half of it prevented (rounded up), hence the whole 1 damage gets prevented.

[@charlesxaqairy709]

Yeah, all the prevented damage was done incorrectly. But it didn't matter in the end.

[@Wiedadafuq]

True, noticed it aswell

[@psymar]

maybe the card would be clearer if it said half of that damage (rounded up) gets prevented, rather than putting rounded up at the end

[@archibaldtuttle9019]

Incredibly entertaining game. I've never been more excited to see Crim pop off and Prof's deck get there so well. 14 minutes in the beginning of no gameplay and I still loved every minute

[@Davidmcnasty]

Crim looks so manic at the end, almost feels like that it's always sunny conspiracy meme.

[@lucyarisato6850]

I was just thinking ‘man, I should go watch the most recent episode of SU&P while I wait for the new one’. Thanks Prof!

[@lucyarisato6850]

[@nerd_entangled]

1:00:02 They revived the x-men show with x-men 97 very recently and it's really good! Even kept the same voice actors and animation style. That intro theme is also amazing.

[@tonehunter8755]

I've watched every episode of Shuffle Up & Play, this is by far my favourite episode. Perfect pod, bravo to all.

I loved the Spice shout-out. I was thinking it when the Monarchy was broken

[@TheTrueFool]

Crim manically performing that indeterminate combo at the end of the video was amazing!

[@WaltherRJ]

This was by far the episode that made me laugh the most so far, what a game! I think that prof was really thoughtful in building that deck for Crim! And I would love to see that primer, too, or better a deck tech on that mono green storm!

[@kolmorka]

[@levrapport2033]

Haven't even gotten to the actual gameplay, and I have to say that the intro was wonderfully unhinged!

[@norsebeast5984]

What I (truly) love about SU&P, is that I can watch the first 15 minutes, without a single card played, and still have a wonderful time listening to the banter! Keeo them coming Prof. You have my favorite series!

[@gerdfast3466]

I know, minor detail, but Giselas effect was played wrong: she prevents halfe the damage dealt to you and your permanents rounded up. So any 1dmg ping just dissipates to nothingness, and eg the indoraptor damage at around 1:20:55 would only be 1, since whats prevented is 3/2 rounded up = 2

[@highlanderbran6086]

Thank god someone knows

[@darkusdudemedia]

20:10 “well I don’t have any forests” - prof while his lands are also forests thanks to a card purple jacket lady played

[@darkusdudemedia]

If it wrong on how that card works it’s because I don’t know the vast amount of MTG very well I’ve only ever played Commander with Niv-mizzet Curiosity so

Princess' gisela had a couple misplays. Gisela prevents half the damage rounded up, so she takes the lesser damage. She would have taken nothing from the creeping bloodsucker and 1 from the enrage trigger.

[@alastairhutton6156]

I'll sub if you do 💪🏻

[@ljlk8583]

Remember, Gisela prevents half the damage, rounded up. So when an odd amount of damage would be dealt, the damage prevented is rounded up. When 1 damage would be done, 1 is prevented and therefore 0 damage is dealt. When 3 damage would be dealt, 1 damage is done instead, etc.

[@Tornven2003]

To say I love this episode is an understatement. You are the Mr Miyagi of reading the card explains the card Prof.

[@homebrewed]

Next episode looks like a banger and this one was sooooo unhinged, love it!

[@Hemlocker]

Small note: Gisela prevents half of the damage dealt to you, rounded up. So if Gisela's controller would take 3, they instead take 1. And 1 damage becomes 0. It's the damage prevented that gets rounded up, not the damage dealt.
