Kamigawa Planar Championship I Shorikai vs Go-Shinat vs Isshin vs Yuriko - WPCS

[@sethronalter5178]

Love the championship concept, excited to see where this goes.

[@covertgoblue]

Us too!

[@ski9019]

Ive never seen CGB happier than when he's playing the tax man

[@The_Duck_Is_Angry]

19:20. for pain. for sorrow. for laughter. and for joy bordering on madness drunk with power. we play.

[@Crunchatize_Me_Senpai]

Two Tithes and two Studies out at the same time is a chaos I had never even considered the implications of until just now. “Do you pay the one?” “No. Do you draw?” “…no.” …is a wild back and forth lmao

[@nathanielcarter5269]

Kamigawa Neon Dynasty was my first set getting into MTG so this had an additional nostalgic feeling. I really enjoy this type of themed decks! Also Shoutout to the hardworking producers and creatives behind the scenes! The interaction between CGB and Blake with Rhystic Study and Smothering Tithe is ridiculous.

[@killuhcamz]

I love that in the Assassin’s Creed episode, everyone said Brent had a great voice and now he’s reading the sponsors!!

[@HinekoAkahi]

This "Planar Championship" concept is really cool! The planes are so distinct, and I think this will really let that show. Also, RIP to Ben for the worst Ruinous Ultimatum ever, through no fault of his own u_u

[@leafy470]

This was a ridiculously fun video, I loved it!! Excited to see more of these planar championships!!

[@covertgoblue]

More to come!

[@hardfoil]

3:13 I desperately need merch with Ben's expression on it 😆😆

[@sebastianl4135]

This was incredibly fun watching Blake and CGB twinning with the Rhystic Study and Smothering Tithe. Also wtf is that anime artwork Smothering Tithe?! I looked it up and its expensive af!

[@definitelynotadj]

This was a great episode! I love high power commander; it's fun to see you all go (almost) all out and with minimum salt levels. This is a great pod and I cant wait for more episodes!

[@covertgoblue]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@draz4lyfe326]

as a fellow Shorikai player this episode makes me so happy

[@chinaman8888]

30:45, the comedic timing on this is perfect.

[@Sinfamous81]

Am I the only one who loves it when CGB plays any U/W deck?

[@chaosjan5239]

yes😂😂

[@LookNoHands_]

Yes

[@NEALMateo]

I mean CGB wouldn't be CGB if he wasn't playing some type of Blue lol

[@covertgoblue]

I definitely love it

[@adamtobiasz8793]

Yeah because no one likes annoying.

[@ClocksTickin]

This taught me a lot, both in things I didn't realize like how targeted removal is (once again) less effective against another commander but also in confirmation of play patterns I've hypothesized to increase longevity so I can win with my favorite commander, Go - Shintai. Loved the game, thank you!

[@HJOTech]

That was a lot of fun! Not sure how I've missed this commander show popping up on my algo but can't wait for more!

[@Guevon_Pajaro]

Another banger. 😂 And I like you running with the idea the gameknights live championships had started, its really cool

[@ForeverGazette]

Really nice to see Brent partake! Feels like a true circle of friendship in addition to a wild game!

[@ChampionWhatever]

The start of a multiverse championship? Love the idea!

[@GarnettLeary]

Awesome! Didn’t expect Yuriko to bite the dust with such an awesome start.

[@fablerh2476]

Somehow I missed this during my personal youtube summer break. Guess there are some things I have to catch up to (after starting on Planar Championship Round 4 :D) I love it! So much flavor! But thank you for the reminder that every. white. deck. needs Farewell ;)

[@starmanda88]

I just pulled apart my Shorikai precon from all those years ago! I want to rebuild so this is perfect inspiration.

[@jjmacias7070]

I'm so happy to see my favorite commander wins, great episode!

[@adamtobiasz8793]

Poor Blake losing even though he had it all. One of the funniest episodes thanks to rhystic study and tide. I am pretty sure Kibler can beat CGB.

[@Z3R0SAMA]

Shorikai is so much fun i still have mine i think im gonna rebuild it after watching this.

[@Guevon_Pajaro]

Fwiw, i love the power level balance of these decks, theyre perfectly strong imo and fun to watch. The tax man mirror was hilarious. Also, i can appreciate it as a shorikai player myself, having piloted the deck before its durdly but really fun. Ggs everyone

[@juniorprimate569]

You guys are the best! Fun to watch

[@simic_stud9492]

CGB! I'm missing the podcast my friend! Any chance of ArenaCraft coming back soon?

[@starry-dazed]

I like this idea. I'm definitely looking forward to future planes and matches. CGB with shorikai sounds super dangerous.

[@shekki3192]

Very cool game, momentum kept swingin around. It made the game really interesting to watch.

[@acetraker1988]

Ben should be playing Brave The Sands and Heliod, God of the Sun. So the double / triple combats work.

[@MechanizedMinionMTG]

talk about the comeback of the century. Definitely felt like the game was going to be over really quickly but a few big swings turned the tide of this champion battle.

[@CelticWarriorGames]

But what was the raccoon named??

[@ThatHoodlum19]

Awesome series idea. I can't to see what plain the next championship match is played on.

[@kscius]

I love this power level of games, keep more of this comming please...

[@Fleet-Phoenix]

Love this premise! My champion would be Chishiro, the Shattered Blade who I’m sad didn’t make it to the table lol

[@Jarrik73]

I really wanted Ben to win after the Ruinous Ultimatum. If only he had a Bojuka Bog as his land for turn. That would have sealed CGB's vehicle graveyard.

[@shadowmyst9661]

I’m fine with having one or the other between Rhystic Study or Smothering Tithe on my board at a time, but not both. I’m self conscious enough about just having one out, and about how much time I take on my own turns.

[@richardmuncie690]

Maybe I missed it because of all the tithe/rhystic triggers but did cgb ever roll for mana crypt? Not that it would have made a difference.

[@therealax6]

He did, but I think he might've missed one.

[@arjunheart5859]

What's the tanuki's name?

[@alucarddelta6576]

I want a game where everyone has blue, white, black themed decks. Everyone has ryhstic study, smothering tithe, and annoited procession and then everyone cast fractured identity on any of the enchantments

[@oxtim394]

As someone who plays a version of the deck that won....hype!!!!

[@The_spacemonkey]

Two rhystic studies and two smothering tithes on the board at once is a perfect description of my own personal hell...

[@jeffkosko5815]

Another good game, thanks all

[@LukasPlasil]

Was that flying raccon towards CGB cut or am I imagine things? You know, when Blake tossed him. xD

[@LoreCollectibles]

havent watched the full video yet. but ben is the only champion

[@samhorrell96]

16:53 Who knew Yuriko would end up being the hero we truly needed. Hope Shae can take down the double Rhystic Tithes

[@MrRevCytosis]

Imagine if ben coulda exiled cgb's graveyard right after that epic sweep

[@helloeleeoh]

as a dedicated self mill player, bojuka bog is a love/hate card for me, but my god would that have been a slick play

[@AdamNeikirk-bj6ud]

Would you guys consider an Innistrad championship?

[@brendanhammond3059]

I appreciate the listening to the community. No one is above reproach constructive criticism is necessary when necessary sorry to bust your all's balls but needed and necessary were just trying to keep you all on The Way

[@gabe3704]

Just realized that if the aura targeting yuriko was the actual copy then blake might have been able to save himself with go-shintai.

[@su0tin731]

I had a feeling Ruinous Ultimatum was the card that Ben searched with DT. Awesome ^^. Too bad CGB might have also figured that out lol.

[@khengar5517]

CGB saying "i will not draw" is a first time for me :D

[@woopertrainer]

Didn’t they have another channel?

[@pkmntrainerkanto]

In my opinion, CGB was making this game incredibly hard to watch 😂 Always that obnoxious guy at the table. everyone else was a joy to watch!

[@Fettsbounty07]

My Isshins worst possible is T4 infinite combat using Lightning Runner and either another energy generator like Aethergeode Miner or Guide of Souls and attacking token makers like Krenko.

[@jamespartney1648]

That ending was crazy

[@DiamondzFinder_]

but... WHAT IS IT CALLED CGB

[@Mrbones1102]

This was an especially funny episode

[@thomasclements2379]

Shay and the ninjas. Go ninja go ninja go!

[@MrJustintreat]

That commander ninjitsu should increase by two also, crazy design flaw.

[@NEALMateo]

CGB & Blake: "OMG...Rystic Study & Smothering Tithe. Twinsies!" Ben & Shay: "Get us out of this 'Will you pay for...' hellhole!" 😂😂😂

[@faviddenko]

Blake’s shirt is excellent

[@RetroMTG]

My Kamigawa Hero is Shorikai but Yuriko is definitely going to win this

[@dannil9878]

That raccoon is so lovely❤ I need it

[@tavernadoeogan0187]

Each episode i get more convinced that cgb has some valliryan blood in him 😂😂😂

[@meatball1327]

What's Isshin's favorite band? Attack Attack!

[@joshuaanesdyquiangco3577]

no patron of the kitsune?

[@zaegar2046]

Surprise surprise CGB plays white blue control....

[@davidguzmanolalde677]

Lets go isshin, ben almost go with the game

[@Herobizkit597]

TIL Ninjutsu is my favorite MtG mechanic and my hatred of Blue mana is once again vindicated.

[@therealax6]

And yet, ninjutsu is a blue/black keyword!

[@cedgu8418]

Great Game guys

[@evanprimeau3810]

Blake got so lost in the sauce, he drown 😂

[@LookNoHands_]

Dunno why Blake always only made one treasure with the shorinai ability from cbg

[@WestonRouse]

That was a great game, I picked Ben at the start and really thought he had it there 😭

[@GrandDuchessTaco]

The second Rhystic Study and Smothering Tithes are the worst possible Commander things.

[@Crunchatize_Me_Senpai]

I thought the back-and-forth between CGB and Blake was super entertaining. Watching them try to cherry pick when to draw cards off Rhystic and when not to was fun and chaotic. But yeah it’s gotta suck to be the other two players in that situation.

[@anikensanchez5040]

LETS GO SHURIKO!!!!

[@Olympian05]

After The Ultimatum CGB shouldn’t have been drawing off of any but the first spell and when Ben drew a card he shouldn’t be make treasures anymore. The triggered card are enchantments not artifacts

[@Crunchatize_Me_Senpai]

What? The card he played reanimated all artifacts _and enchantments._

[@Ev1lHaX0r]

This is the sort of evil I watch this show for.

[@nollmieramar1646]

I feel annoyed that my playgroups have lied about yuriko saying you have to pay a commander tax... god she's more broken than I thought

[@STS-qi1qy]

Normally root for Shea but really can't get behind Yuriko. So let's go with the underdog Ben. (I suspect CGB/Shorikai will win though)

[@berugecasualgaming]

Crazy game!

[@proface5209]

Hoping for some Alara representation!

[@draz4lyfe326]

this is a great idea

[@burningpapersun1]

Blake's cookie monster was more of a yoda

[@Kazz1187]

I like the shrines

[@Fyriaan]

I'm sorry, but CGB has the superior Sol Ring.

[@patriciopereyra4117]

All the work Shae did without sol ringo and those fugging enchantments... poor Shae😢

[@Crunchatize_Me_Senpai]

She was playing Yuriko, no pity from me on this one lol

[@MrJustintreat]

Retro frame is superior Blake, I agree

[@N3gativeR3FLUX]

Get frogged bro. Bloomburrow is looking even more amusing.

[@JaimeAGB-pt4xl]

This had to be... one of the most disgusting EDH gameplays II've witness with 2 players both of the having those braindead enchantments at the same time.... pure AGONY, those pretty much won the game..., lets just say Very rarely do I root for Yuriko 😅 ... Having said that, I really like the Championship concept, and maybe can be for the planes visited in the current standard or something

[@evflasevfla4147]

Yoriko yoriko

[@brendanhammond3059]

Oh and BLAKE BLAKE BLAKE BLAKE BLAKE BLAKE!!!!!

[@JonathanPetzold-u4r]

Go-Shinat? Did you mean Go-Shintai? I'm not even going to watch the video, just wanted to stop in and ridicule for spelling the title wrong.

[@p_drizzle123]

Go-Shinat

[@cha0sniper]

i'll be honest, I'm kinda sad you didn't just go straight to the CEDH versions. I'm guessing because they'd be too expensive for everyone who isn't CGB, and your sponsors would be uncomfortable with proxies xD

[@pineappleshoe]

Robuts better win Edit: they ruined it with the study and tithe

[@Crunchatize_Me_Senpai]

Ehh the robuts still won though, and they won through taking to the skies and swarming everyone, as robuts would do.

[@brandyourfan9244]

This is why Tithe and Rhystic should be banned. It basically turned into a 2 player game, where Ben and Shay basically got to watch. Love the content though, keep it up.

[@jonathanlanci4154]

The more I watch CGB the more I find him annoying and realize I only come back for his friends. Does power level just mean rhystic study and smothering tithe? I wanted Ben to win so bad

[@harryhopkins2479]

Isshin
