[@RafaFredaReis]

It’s time to admit: we love watching Tyler play.

[@Funder1Nk]

Tyler is definitely the most skilled member.

[@marcoguzman2037]

Okay Tyler’s alt acct… we do tho.

[@GeorgBauer]

You should make Jesper a honorary ptw member and get him in more often! He fits perfectly into your vibes!

[@DaniMarko]

Jesper is an incredibly entertaining player, in every show I’ve seen him, also, a sick CEDH player. Oh he also draws ok I guess 🤷‍♂️

[@mandielyn0416]

More Jesper

[@MTGMuddstah]

As per usual, Jesper's boardstate looks like a train wreck. He's lucky he's so handsome.

[@kieranheaton4951]

What's with both ways tapped lands? Full tilt.

[@kstandish42]

Dylan with the altered Thassa be like: OOPS. Haha that had me dying. Tyler's version of Jeska/Dargo was super grindy and made me very interested in building it. Having Dragon Rage's Channeler opening hand is what made that game for him for sure!

[@a_level_70_elite_raccoon]

Tyler is probably my favorite. A master at making Cameron have the answers while he's sitting there with all of the interaction, RIGHT AFTER Dylan in the turn order, just like "nah, I'm passing." Jesper's energy is also so great. He's so much fun.

[@danielgordon8719]

This one was great - so many “almost wins” along the way. Would love to see the other games with Jesper!

[@ModAnonMTG]

Wow, what a game, really liked the way Tyler played their interaction so conservatively here

[@Serouzo]

Tyler over here playing monored control apparently

[@benjamincarter6095]

Play to Win feels like a more appropriate fit for Jesper than the Command Zone.

[@gdiridium5525]

haven't seen him on TCZ but if his decks are anything like what i've seen on muddstah he definitely likes to play more cedh even when his decks don't reflect it as much

[@kauwgomboom]

Might also be the fact that there's no swearing or any type of slightly edgy banter on the Command Zone.

[@curiouschao1]

I’ve been playing for almost a year and I remember hearing immediately that Jesper was a fan favorite and everytime I see him involved in content, it makes complete sense!

[@antonio2708]

Tyler is a master deck builder, and that's why I love this channel, all of you are good at creating decks from outside of cEDH's staples cards.

[@LucasCotrim19]

Great game! A lot of back and forth and win attempts, Tyler's list is probably the most interactive mono red deck I've ever seen lol

[@ercolacri3500]

I always loving seeing Jesper in videos. But then he taps his lands…

[@MrBunksauce]

Lands tap to the left on the other side of the world. It has to do with the Coriolis effect or something like that.

[@merandahill5274]

When Jesper mentioned forgetting to un-tap and that just being too bad, it blew my mind. We use to play that way to. Now a days when I mention that to people they look at me like I’m crazy or stupid.

[@gypsieking3280]

Yea, we played that way with draw too, like if you were too excited to play your hand and forgot to draw... You were fucked.

[@aldenkaiser248]

I love Jesper! So glad you could have him for a game :)

[@SamuelKacerik]

All right, this is now the funniest EDH video I have ever seen. I had really good laugh. The vibes are real. This is my favorite cEDH channel for a while now.

[@ingolf82]

I really love this mono red list. I thought the deck was a glass cannon which only had the purpose of going infinite with Dargo, Jeska and the altar, but I was proven wrong, this is very resilient for a mono red deck.

[@JustforKikX]

"I'm out 3-4 days a week shooting birds". Poor choice of words there Jesper. 😋 Also, never thought I'd see Codie in cEDH..... Also Cam, your triome was ラウグリンのトライオーム (Raugrin triome)

[@MstrKipper]

Mons also likes running Codie a lot, basically he's only a weird turbo Ad Naus deck

[@kstandish42]

@@MstrKipper codie is like a lower to the ground version of Maelstrom Wanderer or Yidris in that the cascade is designed to always hit a value piece but in the case with Codie it's combined with Ad Naus for extreme speed and reliability.

[@MstrKipper]

@@kstandish42 So what you're telling me is he's turbo Ad Naus? : P

[@kstandish42]

@@MstrKipper it's super duper turbo ad naus book flavor :D

[@blakemcconnell6213]

This is my favorite group to watch on KZbin.

[@LemorasCards]

I love this so much. One of the more interesting games gameplay wise seeing all the decks try to grind each other, and the social interaction between everyone was great too. Jesper seems like such a cool dude

[@DROSTAR123]

this is the first video i've watched of you guys and i am impressed. i ain't much for cedh but you guys are entertaining whilst you chat and have fun with each other. deffos gonna be watching more of your guy's content keep up the great work

[@johnmarcellino5034]

This game was so much fun to watch! This is straight up the best cedh content on KZbin

[@FrancisJamal]

seriously guys, definately one of your best videos yet :D

[@brettcaldwell3318]

Love the Triome bit. "This one isn't even in a language that would give me a clue what it's called."

[@griffincollins4845]

Gotta respect the 2 card Gamble. This was a great game, so much back and forth! Nobody felt like they were just sitting there doing nothing.

[@DrFrogman]

Love it my dudes! Some of the Best cedh content out there! Thank you very mutch ❤️

[@Kallistosprom]

That was awesome, I laughed so much with Tyler throwing around the mono red control

[@michaloravec6431]

Nice game. Looking forward to more Jesper games.

[@TCG9777]

to this day I wonder if Jesper has Dylan's TO alter in the works

[@BooksOfTheFallen]

Great stuff as usual! Love your group's energy, keep up the amazing work!

[@lilchappy223]

This was a fantastic game! And would love to see more games with Jesper!

[@leonard-gq5eh]

5:04 "Ignorable Hierarch" Good one!

[@redonthehead2756]

Dudes. I love your channel. Love the content. I love when I see collabs on channels. It's fun to see the interaction with other people and their brews.

[@CalamitousCactus]

Great vid. Jesper is my favorite artist so it’s great watching you guys play with him

[@dantebeleren]

Aw yisss... dat sweet sweet cEDH gameplay. So hyped, just ordered my first "deck" and excited to fart around with lists

[@tserrofz9]

This was a fantastic video. Good job guys. I loved Jesper with you guys

[@BrodyTwice]

"my cursing vocabulary is entirely based on 90's hip-hop and Clint Eastwood movies" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@cinosaurus]

What a great game! My fav channel and thanks so much for the shoutout lol

[@PlaytoWinMTG]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

[@MomirViggwilv]

Tyler bluffing Cam into thinking that his only response to Ishai was kiki to copy a flying blocker, only to have a clutch pryoblast in his hand the whole time, was an absolutely brilliant play.

[@pantherhaste4554]

Super cool that you're playing with the artist of Thassa's Oracle!

[@RageofVaddix]

Sick game! Thanks for sharing it! Can't wait for more! :D

[@ghost64626]

Great game! All the back and forth was incredible lol

[@gypsieking3280]

Jesper is my favorite guest player on any and every channel

[@simonpark6889]

I had to rewind because I was certain Dylan was targetting Cam with that Preator's Grasp taking breach,. I was wrong,.. But why didn't you!? Sorry for being a year behind on your videos btw,. I am watching them all now because I didn't know that your content were this fun to watch until now! This is awesome even a year later. =)

[@jaredrowan7191]

Thought I was in the Ringerverse for a minute! Fun game y'all.

[@storeblaa]

Back to plan B had me rollin laughter

[@tbuckland13]

This game was so awesome. Love the content as always, Jeska/Dargo was so sweet! Just signed up for the Discord so hope to get to chat with y'all soon!

[@JeremyRice82]

I love your videos, and I think this is my new favorite

[@ThePossibilityStorm]

Spicy game! Tyler's list put in some work. Who knew, mono red control?

[@deantoms2432]

We have someone who plays a version of jeska dargo in our play group, that deck is a house it's actually insanely good, love it.

[@TODR34M]

Another great game. It seems Jesper has a great attitude and personality.

[@bobbyjoe3677]

great game cant wait to see the others!

[@ianross9475]

The 50/50 Gamble... You love to see it. 🤣

[@SuenteusPi]

really fitting that the Thassa's Oracle artist plays cEDH

[@chronics23]

Wow mono red was doing pretty solid!

[@alphalegion8446]

That game was so rad!

[@bluenimbus86]

Jesper is one of my favorite artists. :D

[@Magidex]

I really love the Jeska + Ishai combo

[@matthewmartin9983]

So I just built a Codie Deck (primarily just a high power not CEDH player) and I built it around maze’s end. It’s just 45 lands and the rest ramp and land finding spells minus like 4 non land permanents like amulet of vigor

[@014TheValentino]

Never imagine monored get a great interaction, btw nice JeskaI-shai

[@kurtzimmerman9272]

Every time I see cam play islah jeska l just wanna build it looks so fun

[@benjaminking3677]

Just wanted to say I appreciate the WUBRG dice as a visual.

[@thehermitdruid]

Cam is my guy 🦅🦅🦅

[@marcgoldstein7698]

Man, he was Hilarious this episode! So many great jokes!!!! Sorry cam no untap LOL!

[@paulmcclain642]

Lots of comments about Tyler’s awesome mono red list and I’ll add that red seemed to dominate this game in general as well you love to see it

[@ulavala3798]

this was a fantastic video.

[@hunterstrong3318]

In honestly always impressed by cams jeska ishai jeskai deck

[@andrewshapiro4942]

How is Tyler’s wheel of fate “supposed” to be played?

[@titak7755]

I've seen your Codie deck on Maxfield being edited recently. I was wondering if you were mad enough to go for it. Kinda sad we didnt get to see it do a bit more. That mono red interaction though.

[@FecklessSpoon]

Hell of a game!

[@Thinker_of_things]

This mono red deck slaps 😍🔥

[@oddball_covers]

A grind fest with turbo decks. I dig it

[@frankdetank9126]

Well, well, well... you folks snuck this one in on me. Can I ask you you a favor? Can you make a "best enchantress deck in cEDH" video? Thanks!

[@Guyu]

Jesper should make an Instagram about cakes and call it "Ejsing The Cake"

[@onemanashort2195]

Man I really want to see one of you pilot prosper tome bound

[@Highwang]

Kinda wild to be seeing more Attack-y decks with BIG NUMBER JESKA setups. Is this a new meta paradigm shift or just personal preference?

[@swolegolisopod7340]

I think it's kind of fed by cEDH not really having a lot of creatures in the typical game, though from experience the dargo beats plan is more about cutting people's nauses in half rather than killing outright since random 1/1s on the ground are more common than flying for ishai

[@bigscrub1875]

Great game!!

[@Turn2Ugin]

Is the name JDarg a call out to JDog from Hollywood Undead? If so that's badass 😎

[@landgogaming3390]

How do you feel about codie as a deck? I tested it for a couple of months but I always go back to blue farm. I know you guys joked about it being glass cannon but it honestly does feel that way. I think a lot of codies success comes by being a new deck that a lot of people aren't familiar with so they keep their usual proactive hands against it, but you just can't do that as codie will out speed you the vast majority of the time, once people wise up and keep hands with interaction I don't think it'll have the winrate people are currently experiencing with it. When you got stopped you just fumbled around in the dark, blue farm just has so much card draw and power in the command zone while being just as powerful

[@StormEcho]

How were you expecting to cast Underworld Breach with Codie on the field? Does your winning line involve saccing the codex pre-combo? It seems gratuitously difficult to win with due to that little "no casting permanents" line!

[@StrategyWasTaken]

He was trying to prevent the other player from casting it. My experience with codie has been storming off and winning with comet storm stuff

[@orsettomorbido]

Tbh, this was a great game!

[@KenBaumann]

Good game, y'all!

[@ShadowWasntHere8433]

God I love the Ishai list. My MurderBirb count is 29 now

[@robertmitchell3030]

Epic game!

[@Bionitech]

ngl I wanan see a cEDH level Osgir again if it was played before if, I still wanna see it lol

[@ryanaymar9124]

Is there a plan to have more Play to Win sleeves made? they were sold out by the time I clicked on the link after work :/

[@PlaytoWinMTG]

Yes!

[@thormadsen3173]

Play to win coming to Denmark confirmed

[@richardtarbell946]

Wish codie snagged the win but excited to see him featured!

[@addicted2SODA1]

Edit: I’m wrong and dumb. Pretty sure Urza’s saga trigger for the sac goes off in your draw step. So you can’t float mana to cast anything

[@infernosupreme3429]

Every saga triggers beginning of main 1. That includes urzas saga

[@addicted2SODA1]

@@infernosupreme3429 you’re correct. I am wrong.

[@natebrewster9708]

Awesome game. Any idea when your sleeves will be back in stock?

[@onemanashort2195]

Is Sidisi brood tyrant still viable in cedh?

[@Magidex]

I feel like Tormod's Crypt should start seeing more inclusion. Or, I dunno, I just wanna see someone Crop Rotation for Bojuka Bog in response to Breach, you know?

[@ay0and0jay]

I love you guys

[@eathonhowell7414]

Does codie work as a polymorph deck?

"A fuck shit expensive camera"

[@vaporeon344]

Wait hold on, sorry at 14:36 shouldn’t ishai cost 8 because jeska and ishai both died once? Sorry just a little confused.

[@PlaytoWinMTG]

Nope. Commander tax applies to each commander separately

[@vaporeon344]

@@PlaytoWinMTG I thought partners shares commander tax. Do they not share the tax?

They do not

Just wondering how old these kids are that host this channel? Not saying there is anything wrong with their hosting this channel, I am just curious. I must admit this option did not exist when I was their age. It does seem like it would be such hard work though.

[@PlaytoWinMTG]

I am 30. I am also Dylan. Cam is maybe 27

[@timtauber5557]

@@PlaytoWinMTG ok cool thanks, I am very old, I started playing during Alpha, and have played since, I play only Cedh now, but I played type 1 and type 1.5 as well as type II back in the day. My favorite standard block to play in was the Urza block. I am very glad you guys are not whiners on your channel while playing, even when people play sub optimally on occasion. That has been my single biggest complaint against magic since the early days. Poor sportsmanship, this made Cedh the optimal format for me. Everyone knows it’s a “no holds barred” play to win format, therefore if they constantly get Butt hurt you can suggest they go play tiddly winks or something. I enjoy the mental contest as well as the feeling of solving the board state puzzle and coming out on top. No other format has the insane amount of “moving pieces” involved that Cedh brings to the table. Your card knowledge counts for a lot in Cedh. Well good luck guys, keep cranking out solid gameplay content.

[@uphillwalrus5164]

I wish Dargo was just slightly stronger so he would be played in cedh more. He's probably my favorite partner commander

[@mrpaulum8987]

I guess this means Dylan is going to Denmark soon.
