Kaladesh Preview Card + Mark Rosewater & Gavin Verhey PAX Interviews! | The Command Zone 122

[@commandcast]

D'OH! In typical Command Zone fashion, we mistakenly identify Padeem as a male - she is most certainly not! In fact we encourage you all to read her first appearance in a Magic Story - it's a good one :) magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/magic-story/time-innovation-2016-08-31

[@danielwomer]

Okay, I'm starting to get stoked about this set. Also, the aerial footage of Iceland is simply the most beautiful thing I've seen all month, Josh. Wow. Thanks for going through all that trouble to bring us 3 minutes of true art.

[@joshleekwai8895]

Yeah - the set is looking like something special. And glad you liked the Iceland footage. I'm pretty proud of how it turned out. The place is amazing!

[@vinceinman9666]

Listening to Maro talk about 4-color commanders and design has me super stoked. Only two more months!

[@Greedfires]

not even, we will get spoilers just a bit after Kaladesh

[@bv310]

Maro is always so excited. It's infectious

[@PIZZLEdeTWIZZLE]

I got explained at the airport once that cards looks like cash on the scanner :)

[@King-fo3kj]

I've been told that a deck in a cardboard deckbox looks like a bomb

[@bv310]

Yep, been told it was a big dense box. Scanners make it look like drugs

[@maxpower2480]

I've been told by customs that they knew how valuable my box of draft chaff was... Laughed in their faces and told them they could keep it and asked weather I should explain the game to them...

[@zirezerimar3725]

I just love that they are bringing archenemy back, last week I was teaching the game to a friend and re explaining the rules to another one (that have not played in 12 or more years), and arch enemy was what we played and everyone enjoyed it a lot. And everything got understood, it is a great way to teach new players.

[@mareksison]

Hey! Ther's new sweet Sol Ring art! Maybe you'll include that in your intro? :D

[@dragonballtalk8527]

It's been three years u still alive

[@lic4444]

You guys convinced me to try Card Kingdom a few days ago and I gotta say, it is much better than tcgplayer. My stuff was on my doorstep 3 days after ordering and it was in pristine condition. tcgplayer has never been very reliable, so it's nice to have one place I can order from safely! Thanks for directing me to their site!

[@joshleekwai8895]

We love hearing this. Thanks for letting us know!

[@ValanceJ]

That Iceland footage was amazing. Makes me wish I had a drone everytime I see great footage.

[@joshleekwai8895]

Thanks! Glad you liked it. And yes, you should totally get a drone - it's the best!

[@mannzj648]

Card Kingdom is the best i ordered 10 cards from them two days after i ordered 12 cards from another big time online card shop. The shipment from card kingdom came two days before my other order. super impressed will be my go to online card shop for now on.

[@joshleekwai8895]

Great to hear! Thanks for letting us know.

[@aegir95]

Halló frá Íslandi. I've been following your podcast for a few months about now and I have to say, it's always fun to listen to you, but this is the best episode simply because of the Iceland part, what can I say, I'm bias when it comes to my country. Glad you loved it and yes there is soooo much you are yet to see and I hope it will be as/more joyful for you than your first trip. Kæra kveðja. Ægir

[@joshleekwai8895]

One of my favorite places I've ever visited. Cannot wait to go back!

[@Sloan1990]

Maro ANDGavin ANDJimmy ANDJosh? I'm excited!

[@natanoj16]

Ways I first thought about the 4 colour commanders: 1: a few colours with extra colour in the identity 2: Hybrid mana? 3: Please please a planeswalker for each colour! ^^

[@piegod9000]

Card kingdom kind of feels like a premium service for magic great quality, great shipping; so I love when I can order from them, but I was sad because there prices are a bit high. However I was impatient and ordered my first good aka control edh deck from them

[@GellarFieldEngineer]

That opening

[@TyHatfield]

Really think that blue card Padeem this whole set reminds me of my old days at Magic with the start of antiquities but it's during the time of Arabian nights. It was the start of magic and actually when different things actually happen and what I was going to say that reminds me of the times when I have my markers out and I was a young kid pretty much and I thought I need that black card "Guardian beast" to protect all of my moxes, and artifacts they cannot be destroyed because of that beast so you see what I'm saying there is such a similarity it's amazing

[@swebartender4697]

If jimmy had a Viking name, it would be Jimmy the red. Based on Erik the red (Erik Thorvaldsson), a Norse Viking from the Viking era (900-1200 ad) that founded the first Norse settlement in Greenland.

[@dragonballtalk8527]

I bought six cheap vehicle cards off tcg player for my madd maxx deck .bub

[@plitterusmaximus]

still waiting on that red blue artifact commander, apart from that this set has been awesome. thought about making the boros dward as a cheap fun commander.

[@billwilliams2393]

This is great fun!

[@stratoincendus3869]

I'd guess the magic solution to the four colour problem will be a 2+2 - combining the characteristics of an allied colour pair (e.g. Selesnya) with those of an enemy colour guild (like Izzet), rather than viewing the combinations as allied pairs only.

[@dshumway0724]

Affinity for artifacts can help get value for Pazeem. For flavor, affinity for islands

[@lupoarcana]

liquimetal is nifty for protecting Padeem in a pinch, or planeswalkers and other non-artifact permanents

[@evileyeball]

can't order sealed product from card kingdom as a Canadian

[@dragonballtalk8527]

Magic in da streets

[@xanaxkamikaze]

More roborosewater cards for Desert Bus please.

[@PaulOkon1981]

Looks like I'll have to put Leonin Abunas out to pasture with Padeem coming around.

[@ReformedThe]

Can you play arch enemy one on one? Hearing him talk about it so fast makes it sound like it. Not a bad thing. I'm excited too, but it'd easier if I could play one on one. Cause I don't always have 3 other people to play with. Sadly I play more test deck games myself than with other people. Hahaha. I like testing decks.

[@ReformedThe]

Sucks though when you have decks with counters though.... It's like oooooo I wonder what he's has in his hand. Hahahahahah gotta play dumb.... Still doesn't bother the deck I test against.... Daretti..... OP

[@dudeman3981]

My call is that the 4 color commanders will be focused on what color they aren't.

[@jordanmcneal2088]

I'm calling it, the "4 color" commanders will actually be 10 dual colored commanders that have the ability to share the command zone with one of the other 10 dual colored commanders. Allowing you to have a 4 color deck and removes the design difficulties of the 4 color commanders. You can even then mix and match these commanders with each other from the other decks. Each deck will come with two of the 10 commanders and functional legendary version reprints of the Nephilims.

[@tetrisgoat]

I'm responding to this to remind you, if nothing else. You were close! :) But yeah, it's also something most playgroups have talked about at some point, I think. I, for one, have always wanted to build a Glissa and basically any of the three c15 b/g commanders. I still can't, but still. Works differently from how I imagined my concept of dual commanders, but not too foreign.

[@CodenameJD]

So Padeem + Mycosynth Lattice + Darksteel Forge = win?

[@devangoad]

All of your permanents have indestructible and hexproof? Better watch out for some gross edicts I don't know of, or you've probably won the game

[@CodenameJD]

All you need at that point is to actually hit the win con :P

[@King-fo3kj]

cyclonic rift

[@CodenameJD]

Kyle McHale No solution is flawless (or it shouldn't be), and that card is kind of crazy.

[@ms.sysbit5511]

+CodenameJD descent upon the sinful and white has a kamigawa version too. Others exist too but it's certainly a strong lock

[@flan310]

Rashmi is going straight into my Moimr Vig DeckIts going to be awsome :D

[@DecaDang510]

I think Padeem is missing a color...

[@VVhirl]

Wait for Oviya, I think she is supposed to be the UR Artifact Commander

[@DecaDang510]

Jesse Yarbrough I hope so.

[@sLiZeR02]

According to Maro there is no UR artifact commander :(

[@Kadinata]

I wanna build a Padeem voltron and pile the swords on her. Have her put on the boots and you're pretty much set.

[@BoomBoom54543]

i bet the generals are mono colored generals with shard colored activated abilities!

[@amacuro]

I thought that could be one option, but it's a bit cheap, i don't see how they would be super proud about it. Another option is to have for example Simic/Orzhov (green, blue, white black) and the card has Evolve and Extort as its abilities. It would be cheap as well though... So my bet is that it's none of these things :)

[@docterfantazmo]

The owl was called *Bubo*, the original *Clash of the Titans* was one of my all time faves, the new one was one of the stupidest bloody things I've ever seen... I freaking HATE that film.

[@sirderik]

Lee i liked that you was on Kaladesh panel...just because i feel you are more of a part of magic community them that time will wheaton was with wizard on a stream before return to zendikar...Will i like him, hand have some gripes with him but he has become this token nerd/geek celebrity. ANYWAY! back to the point i like that you was on the panel and i hope that Josh gets to be like on the panel for something like spaghetti, meatball, tuna or whatever.

[@adamfiliatreault3393]

Padeem will immediately replace Leonin Abunas in my Sydri deck

[@maxpower2480]

Err, what did he mean by "those people"?

[@codelicious6590]

That intro! Nailed it!

[@dragonballtalk8527]

What a name butt

[@vinightshade6026]

lol so mean to Christine xD

[@joshleekwai8895]

Nothing but love! Christine is the best!

[@johnmeyer8078]

the foils probably look like some sort of razor blades

[@dragonballtalk8527]

Hi it's 2019 u still around I am

[@AedalinSolaris]

I got lucky and I got my friend to get my full art swamp signed by MaRo

[@joshleekwai8895]

I'm not sure I'd call that getting lucky so much as "being smart"

[@WrightJustice1991]

Padeem is female not male.

[@lightspeedasH]

at a glance looks can be either

[@WrightJustice1991]

lightspeedasH Ye but she's confirmed female from the story.

[@joshleekwai8895]

Yeah this is totally our bad. Apologies.

[@Masaru_kun]

i think kaladesh's weakest point is unfortunately its commander relevance

[@allanmenzies8668]

idk their gearhulk cycle is pretty insane. Plus Boros dwarf tribal, you won't, coward.

[@d00dxKVLT]

Mark Rosewater tries so hard not to even acknowledge the existence of Legacy....

[@oscarthebarbarian9673]

Padeem is a beautiful lady :)

[@xanaxkamikaze]

I love you guys. But I've never liked Phil Collins. A lot of people do though.

[@dragonballtalk8527]

Phil is tolerable.in the air tonight look it up

[@Zolthux]

first
