KAMIGAWAAAA!!! We have ENGLISH SUBTITLES available for this Japanese-themed episode 😂 hope it helps! What's your favorite card from this set??? Also check out this Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty unboxing we did with Rachta! ->kzbin.info/www/bejne/fnbLeYWufJV3rJI

[@avatarofpapermagic]

Haha I'm an Aussie and I've always understood your English. Considering you no doubt all know another language you do a great job at English 🤙

[@chaddlol1]

Twoshin, he's clearly too powerful to be left alive even for one turn

[@Belena711]

I thought you were saying you added subtitles because this episode would be in another language. Lol. Nope. English with English subtitles. :) Makes me curious how many people have a hard time understanding: You should put out one of those YT polls.

[@QMTG]

Lol yeah I'm very curious too

[@grumpyinbrooklyn6347]

I would love to see Kyodai, Soul of Kamigawa as well as Light-Paws!

[@Blu_Moon_Owl]

As someone who also plays Go-Shintai shrine deck, seeing Sanctum of All getting exiled hurts me too. That’s a big blow

[@QMTG]

It was traumatic

[@mattecatthechannel9236]

Gabriel really got me rollin' in laughter for this episode. The MVP of this game for sure! Love to see him make a return soon~

[@QMTG]

He'll be back. One day

[@avatarofpapermagic]

Where was Gabriel? The Chosen One was clearly the funniest this episode 😂

[@voidprism_studios666]

Gabriel was hilarious as Morpheus. I'm excited to see Hinata and Isshin this match.

[@QMTG]

Lol 😅

[@Reddgameplus]

Legends say Esmond is still on an extra turn to this day. Great episode everyone involved, especially Etali.

[@QMTG]

Yes I am

[@Carrtoondragon]

Both of the Etali's were great.

[@stevenjones4953]

YaQiong was great! Hope we get to see more of her in the future.

[@gaaragresnik4140]

I guess its "more of her" ^^'

[@QMTG]

She might return

[@stevenjones4953]

My bad, I have edited my mystake.

[@benoitbusque3601]

"It is time to forsake flesh and choose fire" is the HARDEST line YaQiong is a great guest hope they return!

[@QMTG]

She will! (sometime in the future)

[@grumpyinbrooklyn6347]

I agree 100%! In fact, there was a wonderful, wholesome energy during this game that I enjoyed very much. She kept up her end pretty well! Excellent game and players!

[@Michevous_Ren]

I hope to see "THE CHOSEN ONE" again on your next games.

[@QMTG]

He will return. One day.

[@DavidJohnson-tv1ey]

"I upgraded the man base a little bit" *3 extra turn sorceries* 😂😂

[@QMTG]

Purely for synergy reasons :)

[@DarthSleepless]

I've only watched 5 mins and Gabriel has me in tears. Keep it up this is some great commander content!

[@QMTG]

Lololol thanks!

[@nickfitzpatrick5878]

Love how much how this show has improved. Please keep up the work.

[@QMTG]

Cool, thanks!

[@KYeung-be4lw]

There's a lot of great EDH KZbin content out there but this is probably my favorite out of all of them

[@QMTG]

Awesome, thanks!

[@dxdraiba7604]

It feels like we are just peeking around the corner at the local game store and watching you guys play a game.....silly little mistakes, banter that isnt forced....and the production value is high enough to be enjoyable to watch....but not so high it feels like watching reality tv...

[@QMTG]

That’s exactly what we’re going for!

[@sleighte]

The evil happiness of Matthew when he exiles that sanctum of all has made my morning! Thank you as always for the great games!

[@QMTG]

It was brutal

[@Skream1185]

You guys are my favorite commander channel. Keep up the great work guys. Shout out to Matthew!

[@QMTG]

Wow, thanks!

[@threscik]

Y'all are so funny together, definitely in for more.

[@QMTG]

More to come!

[@TheStan690]

Gabriel was gold in this episode, he had me rolling 🤣 keep up the good work guys!!!

[@QMTG]

Lololol thanks!

[@Leovold]

Everyone is very communicative with their turns, which is very enjoyable, and I've watched about 15 videos now of Quintessential Commander and I have to say I really enjoyed YaQiong's voice when talking through their turns. Hinata is also an awesome general. 👌

[@QMTG]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@chummer2060]

You all seem like such a great group. So fun to watch you play.

[@QMTG]

We have fun :)

[@ryangoodenow2518]

Gabe's shades are the MVP 😂😂😂😂

[@QMTG]

Lololol you mean the chosen one

[@jasefaceification]

Just had this channel come up in my recommendations and honestly blown away by your production values, editing is fantastic

[@QMTG]

Sweet! That's great, thanks :)

[@mintifur]

This was such a creative take on the shrines, I wonder if they would also benefit from extra combats? This episode was extra entertaining though, thanks Chosen One for staying in character!

[@QMTG]

Lol thanks! Extra combats wouldn’t be as great as extra turns but it would certainly help

[@chaddlol1]

The editing is cracking me up lol. I STAND WITH THE CHOSEN ONE!!

[@QMTG]

AWESOME

[@masalpert]

Loved this video, you all have great chemistry together. Also the Twoshin comment made me laugh so loud I startled the cat. More like this!

[@kennythaha]

Haha awesome suspenseful game with all the random reveal card effects. Also great work balancing the pace, comedy, and explaining stuff.

[@kairucamp]

"the chosen one" was a personality gabriel developed to help him cope with these mtg matches xD

[@kwilson20021]

ive seen a bunch of EDH vids. this is right on par with what i want to see. friends playing edh and laughing while the plays happen. Good channel guys.

[@QMTG]

Awesome! Thanks!

[@MrCrazycarlwinter]

I watch a lot of Magic content and I really have enjoyed yours the most I think. Just a phenomenal dynamic you guys have going. Keep it up!

[@QMTG]

That's awesome! Thanks!!

I have been watching you guys for like a year, you become of my if not my favorite Commander channel. Keep up the nice work!

[@QMTG]

Thanks! Will do!

[@PhilButcher]

I love you all. You all have great personalities and your banter is great and reminds me of me and my friends. One of my fav magic channels, for sure.

[@QMTG]

Love you too! Thanks!

[@befuddledfaun]

Omg I literally just stumbled across you guys, but I loved this video! Great decks and everyone had a cool vibe. Especially THE CHOSEN ONE. I will be back for more

[@QMTG]

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!!!

[@outlandishmtg4415]

As a perfectionist and a podcaster, I wanted to say I know the feeling you must have felt when you went back to review this and the audio changed after the intro. Such a sinking feeling. I just wanted to acknowledge that feeling for you and let you know, it's okay. Thanks for putting content out into the world.

[@QMTG]

Lol it is indeed a sinking feeling. But yeah, still gotta get the content out :)

[@Minervastouch]

That first nashi's hit LUL! Poor esmond unofficial commander gone forever.

[@QMTG]

Forever :(

[@scott_raven]

This was my first GH gameplay vid! Great content!

[@QMTG]

Hey, thanks!

[@Guevon_Pajaro]

You guys are hilarious, the chemistry is great, im sorry I havent been watching. I've known the channel for a long while and dont click. but man, good videos! the editing too has only gotten better :D

[@QMTG]

Hahaha it's not too late. Thanks!!!

[@christopherfields6146]

The games just get better and better! I really enjoy that you bring in other players to go with Esmond , Matthew and the chosen one. Matthews hair is growing so fast wow !!

[@QMTG]

Lololol. thanks!!!

The energy that is produced from that table is overwhelming positive! Always have me laughing through each and every episode. ❤️ #shrinebrightlikeadiamond

[@koppidog]

Just a note, I was not in this episode. The Chosen One was present.

[@QMTG]

Who are you

[@matty4100]

Would definitely choose you 😘

[@Lasor4]

"There is no counterspell. Please continue." Got me off guard for whatever reason loool 😂

[@QMTG]

Hahahahha it was very polite of her

[@AbyssArray]

Just found you all in my recommendation feed, great video! Now I want to build Etal- I mean Nashi

[@QMTG]

Lololol thanks! Do it!

[@ClocksTickin]

Loved getting to see the Shrine deck go off. Most channels that feature shrines either don't play them very well or they just treat them like a meme. Nice to see someone show off their power

[@alexanderdias3310]

21:38, the creatures are not supposed to untap due to icy wind

[@azrael98]

I loved this video, was my first with you all - I hope you all get the following/fanbase you deserve!

[@QMTG]

Awesome, thanks!

[@gaaragresnik4140]

Matt is just mono red camouflaged as black cause Ninjas hide their true characters xD

[@QMTG]

Yes he is

Great editing, great banter, great gameplay, and great cosplay Gabriel! You guys have come a long way :D

[@QMTG]

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@alessandrodellanno948]

The gameplay is so clean! Always good content! Good game,Gabriel is hilarious! And Hinata is so damn scary...but it's a Kirin,i should have expected from playing monster hunter Lul

[@QMTG]

Thanks!

[@wordsocold6198]

This is the first game I’ve watched with u all and I love the humor keep up the good work. Also I realized that at 20:54 Matthews creatures shouldn’t have untapped during that turn due to the icy blast with ferocious

Glad you enjoyed that! Yeah we totally forgot about that hahaha

The effort you put into this is very obvious. 👍🏻

I randomly found you guys through my recommended video! ... Don't mind me as I'm going to binge through all your video's

[@QMTG]

Go for it :)

[@danielkuttel7867]

It's not a joke, the resolution is really better now because your equipment is much better. Sweet. Thank you that you played Go Shintai, its a pretty good idea how you can get more triggers from the shrines. Extra turns are a good way. I played an older deck and I used to play a paradox haze for more Upkeep triggers, but that worked not for all shrines (Screw you WOTC). The new shrines are cool because they are creatures, but sadly you have to pay for the trigger. Go Shintai is truly the king of shrines. Good match, I laughed so much. In my opinion, you played a little bit rough with hinata. You had fear of something that she didn't have on her hand. So in the end every commander is dangerous with the right cards, but you have to draw the cards. So sad that she wasn't able to play farewell. I like this removal so much. Exile is soooo good.

[@QMTG]

Yes it is. Yeah, although i do feel justified after seeing all the shrine removal in the deck 😂

[@danielkuttel7867]

@@QMTG Maybe there is a chance that you post the Shrine Deck on Moxfield? Because Im interested to see your Deck and maybe I want to build it. Most of the Cards I have already, because I had a Shrine deck but with Sisay.

[@QMTG]

Decklists are in the description

[@allhailbolas]

lowkey favorite part of each episode for me are the background jokes on the board :D love this show

[@QMTG]

Sweet :) thanks!

[@xicy133x]

21:00 hey guys, bit of a mistake but icy blast (turn 6) would have prevented attacks from of all his creatures except for unforgiving one. No worries those mistakes happen all the time in mtg.

[@QMTG]

Yeah forgot about that haha

[@Imprint78]

Well there was a missed opportunity to have 5 Isshins. then we have Goshin vs Go-Shintai

[@QMTG]

Lololol next time!

A really great fun episode!!! The Chosen One Made me laugh a lot!!! Go on like this! The best and funniest edh games Channel!

[@unwucht1529]

Just discovered your channel. You provide lovely content. please keep up the good work. Very entertaining to see your gameplay!

[@StaticCat1369]

Paradox Haze + Copy Enchantment - that's what's in my Shrine deck.

[@QMTG]

It's pretty good, but it doesn't work for all the shrines

[@Richuardo]

Great content as always, that shrine deck was fun to see trigger. To answer your question, I really am intrigued by The Reality Chip - looking at and playing cards off the top of the library on a legendary jellyfish?! Sign me up

[@QMTG]

Oooooh yes I love that octopus

You did a good job focusing Hinata that commander seems obnoxious as hell

i know right

Who's Gabriel?

[@brandonwhite6693]

Yea I have been playing alot of Hinata and the sad fact is that Hinata gets targeted right out of the gate, people are scared of it, I had to remake her into a storm deck just so I could actually feel like I could play the game. One key thing with Hinata, Is that you always have to have protection for her, never cast her without a counterspell in hand and mana available!

[@tasteoftacos]

Yes! Hinata is the most feared commander of the set

[@QMTG]

It's so strong

[@BlueGriffin20]

Yep. In all but one games I’ve seen someone play Hinata so far, they were the first one out because they couldn’t get her to stick around.
