(I hope Lynch sees this) I don't usually comment on videos but I just wanted to say that this truthfully was one of my favourite episodes of IHYD so far. I had wondered why all the intros had changed, then heard about the recent parting of Joe from the channel from reddit. Honestly the whole production this time around with the sponsor reels, rule zero convo, and overall editing felt more professional and way cleaner. Big ups to you. I also enjoyed seeing how fun and laid back things were at the table. That to me is what EDH is all about. Fun first. Cheers to you Lynch and this channel. Keep it up!

I fully agree. Plus, it's always a blast to see Olivia. And Brian Kibler was really a gem. His experience and memories of the early days of Magic are incredible.

@@ninja_gamer0843 My primary one (due to budget and preferences, I guess) is Morophon, Klauth, Old Gnawbone. Atarka World-Render, and Goldspan/Karthus Tyrant of Jund (last two depend on the situation of the game, might also go for Dragonlord Dromoka if I feel I need a bit more control). Not saying these are the best five to get, but they tend to either make me win or lose due to the ramp I get, as well as the insane damage with Atarka on the field :) If you can come up with a better combo I would love to hear it, to upgrade my own deck =)

Fun fact: When you have an untap trigger like mesmeric orb, since no one gets priority during the untap step, the trigger doesn't go on the stack until the beginning of the upkeep which means that Olivia's Mirri's Guile lets her rearrange cards before she mills (though since she's milling more than she looks at, that would be pointless)

An amazing start to season two! Got the mtg power couple Kibler and Olivia as guest, and just overall feels so much better. Always great seeing Rachel at the table, and Lynch seems so much happier! Hoping to see IHYD thrive more than ever going forward!

Yes we will!

Brian struggling to not fidget with his hand is my favourite thing

The best episode yet, my favourite guests and without none of the negativity or personal agenda. I stopped watching this series about 6 months ago to be honest, im glad it popped up in my recommendations. Liked and resubscribed

[@IHateYourDeck]

Glad to have you back!

I love it anytime there’s pro-players in EDH. You can really see how differently they think about it but at the same time that they’re still human especially when it’s time for salt. Btw this is all in jest

Probably my favorite episode yet. Great guests, greater banter. Bring them all back, the dragons need some revenge.

I absolutely love this channel! No matter who’s at the table I feel like I’m chilling at my LGS with friends. Thank you for this content in these trying times.

Your welcome!

This is amazing: two of my favorite people of the community in a gameplay video. Just love Olivia and Rachel sooooo much.

I keep reading Olivia's shirt and it looks like it says "HAIL SATA" and I'm like "yes, praise the dark Lord of data transfer, obsolete though He be"

the chemistry with olivia and lynch is fire!

[@SwamPassMagic]

Absolutely loved this episode! Great energy, great people. Love how there's more talks of rule 0. 2022 starting off right!!! 🙌🙌🙌

[@kenimrie4977]

I recommend going back to 30:00 and muting for a few seconds. Great episode! MTG has so many fantastic personalities!

[@Charkiie]

This has to be one of my favourite games on IHYD so far. The new intro is clean, this really captured what I love about EDH. Proper wholesome magic! Looking forward to the future of this channel!

I really enjoy the vibe on IHYD. People dressed casually, not heavily edited, and a good amount of swearing. I'd say the kinds of commander games you might play with your friends but I don't have friends. So I like to imagine these catch that vibe well.
