“Mono blue wizards can go off next turn, lets swing at the least impactful goblin deck”

[@SpyrotheDragon97]

After watching it, it looks like he swung cuz he knew he had the answer to the milled deck, so I think it’s ok

[@personsomeone2760]

But still the other goblin deck was at a stronger place and the first goblin deck had a creature to kill the problem of the blue player but instead let's feild wipe and allow the blue deck to have the strongerest position

[@lordtrollage2819]

@Meg Fanton ur right, nobody gives a shit

[@Threadoflength]

It's worth noting that Midnight Clock shuffles both the hand and graveyard into the library before drawing 7. It didn't matter this time, but could be key in future games.

[@MTGMuddstah]

Good catch! Thank you

[@MrMintyfreshsmell]

My favorite vids are ones with lower level commander's. They always have the most interesting decks

[@fredcrinson2715]

This!

[@RealClassixX]

Then you might want to check out the KZbin channel "Quest for the Janklord", if you haven't already. They make videos with very high production value and beautiful, beautiful jank.

[@plain6677]

Yes but Azami is pretty spicy with crypt and mox diamond though!

[@eliakimrodrigues]

Azami draw-a-card-for-free is a low level commander - ok then

[@AceofSpades201]

As an Azami player, this game actually hurt my soul. How does someone draw so many cards yet do so little? How do you not win the game with a card that combos with your commander? I'm simply in awe.

[@jamallynch1218]

Same

[@gizel4376]

he had patron wizard and never used it, when he had plenty of good opportunity, he instead wasted good counterspell from his hand, which would have gave him the win after playing mind over matter

[@DarkEinherjar]

I think this is the first time I see someone resolving a Mind Over Matter engine and not winning...

[@kingfuzzy2]

I've given a player literal instructions on how to win via mind over matter they rifted instead and died to a 1/1 haste card instead 🤨

[@mr.cuddles1805]

Patron wizard could have countered nearly every single significant spell in the first half of the game

[@bedwarssweat6205]

So true. And could've protected his combo

[@rexone9564]

@@bedwarssweat6205 I saw that too and thought it was weird.

[@WiiTara]

It could have but remember it would have also drawn a lot of aggro if he did. I think he sometimes forgot, because there were some spells I personally would have definitly countered, but countering like everything is only a good idea if you are in a position where you cant be stopped anymore.

[@bedwarssweat6205]

@@WiiTara yep. I think it is often the smart move to let powerful stuff slide in order to not draw hate. Especially when you draw extra cards when you do. However this may have been in excess

[@julianhugen8760]

I think that Chris doesn't know what Patron Wizard does. That's the only reason explanation.

[@tylerlockhart4069]

Love that you’re showing a lot of games with Kadena’s, one of my favorite commanders! My first deck!

[@stevenlorenzo6540]

That Bitterblossom is my favorite art in all of Magic. Something about all the shades of purple...

Two lands was super rough to witness but you held your own. I did love the Kadena deck. Shall have to snoop through the list and steal some ideas.

[@mickaelslavich4123]

Azami Wizard tribal was my first ever EDH deck, and boy did seeing Chris' game triggered me. He needs to playtest it waaaaay more.

[@_jordaank_4970]

Also fun watching you play a game with Krenko!

[@gdiridium5525]

strange to see Chris play patron Wizard early and never use it to Force Spike things when he otherwise could've. Perhaps he was trying to avoid becoming Archenemy early on?

[@MTGMuddstah]

I believe so, yes.

[@thengine7]

He just forgot about it. He could have stopped villainous wealth with just one tap.

[@Daz1One]

@@thengine7 He used Boseju to cast Villanous Wealth, so it can't be countered.

[@DarkEinherjar]

I am mentally screaming at Patron Wizard not being used at all until the very end of the game...

[@dancook6114]

tell me about it. He tapped it when andrew played krenkos command but then the spell still went off and he untapped it again after re watching the video honestly there weren't many times when chris could've used the patron wizard effectively. the vast majority of spells that were cast their owners still had enough mana up that even tapping his whole board wouldn't have been enough

[@HugSeal42]

@@dancook6114 The spell didn't go off. No goblins were added, and he untapped it because he entered his untap step.

[@dancook6114]

@@HugSeal42 huh he didnt actually mention it in the voice-over but yeah you're right. wierd

[@arc486]

From France, thanks again Mister Goblin for every single game !

[@drewishgaminginc.3942]

Just built my first krenko deck.... absolutely pumped

[@dantebeleren]

Chris clearly needs more play time with his deck. So many misplays or general lack of plays.

[@couver2997]

"plus he's in blue" now that is the type of threat assessment I love to see!

[@MrMintyfreshsmell]

Mark just walked into the room and won. I love it.

[@jamesrobertpermenter3631]

Krenko games are what I live for. Group hug commander (Seizan) and Goblin decks are games I will always watch

[@brandondrake4609]

Happy that the wort deck won, I have a big mana version instead of goblin tribal so it was cool to see a different version of it

[@Styckcl]

Nice. I love seeing two commanders that i own on the same game. Go Goblin Gang!!!

[@AndrewLawton16]

I'm still in opening hands so I don't know if it's impactful, but HELL YEAH WAR CADENCE. What a great card. I never see anyone else play it though

[@allnet20]

Derrick is my spirit animal. I love me kadena and the sen playmat!

[@fredouellet3160]

I recently builded Kadena (I played casual non edh with morphs for a while and when kadena came out, it just was asking me to build a edh deck) It's one of my favorite decks to play. Stop telling everyone to play it, I like to play different decks ;)

[@xandervs5675]

Now I kinda want to build that wizard deck. I already have one but, that one seems more fun.

[@sintwelve]

Do it man. Make Kadena. I love her too. I just have trouble picking the right wincon with her but this seems to be a general sultai problem.

[@breadguytv]

WORT THE RAID MOTHER YESS DUDE

[@LAmanafull6246]

At 7:37, the clock shuffles his graveyard and his hand to his library, then draw :) Not much in the graveyard thought... So shouldn't have any influence.

[@jackthomas5607]

The Azami deck is surprising. I haven't seen one draw their entire deck and not win that turn. Several wizard abilities were underutilized, but adding one Eldrazi shuffle titan would have solved all of his problems. I run a mono blue Sphinx deck that used that very same combo with Mind over Matter and Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx. I can cycle through my whole deck and drop every sphinx in the deck on the field and pitch the titan to shuffle the yard back and start over with nothing but counters and support.

[@Mtglilypads]

4:13 forgot to mention that Chris countered you goblin spell

[@hectormorales4090]

Such a cool game guys.

[@amethystwyvern]

unless im mistaken, mudstahh had two open mana when chris flusterstormed, couldn't he have used his patron wizard twice to counter the spell and saved his mana for his combo?

[@williamcarswell3012]

Flusterstorm automatically makes you pay 3 mana because it copies itself on the stack if im not mistaken

[@arandomday3530]

Wort is one of my favorite commanders, she’s such a unique flavor of spellslinger

[@NyxTheScary]

Krenko deck started out SUPER strong, if you got Krenko out early the tokens would of been insane

[@DarkEinherjar]

Midnight Clock shuffles the graveyard into the library too...

[@harrisoneuler8187]

Correct me if I’m wrong. But did the mono blue player have a card that turns his wizards into counterspells and allow him to discard cards to untap his wizards to then continue countering spell or just I don’t know draw your deck and win the game. However instead of doing this decided to pass the turn. Bro this hurts to watch.

[@ThaMobstarr]

Hey here at 5:59 I didn‘t understand why Mark’s Wort had to go back to the command zone. Could you explain it to me? :)

[@afspeellijstnaruto]

For some reason my Kadena deck ALWAYS performs well. And that on a low budget (20 euros wordt of upgrades). i think it's cuz most things on board are no big threats at first glimpse. It also kind of plays like a control deck and I rly have to time my morphs and manage mana really well. I think it is one of my more difficult decks to pilot.

[@TCG9777]

holy shit its Wort!

[@raverpartyelectro]

U guys didnt put the azami deck list on the description

[@VampiricTyrant]

Don't let your dreams be dreams! Build Kadena. Do it!

[@aarong2606]

Feel like we see mana screw out of that krenko deck a lot...maybe look into some mdfc's or just add a few more lands if it is a bit greedy

[@Isellcarsmfer2466]

What is the song playing in the background?

[@puffin-onehandedgamer1164]

ufff... Muxus is a really expensive card for a goblin. I wonder if he would be more powerful as a commander than Krenko free spells are always nice.

[@robertbolea4341]

Doesn't mind over matter cost six and not eight?

[@rexone9564]

Azami is so fun. I have a kaza, roil shaper deck and azami is the best card in it.

[@rioscardot]

What's that mighty patron wizard doing there? 7:50 Is he ever gonna use it?

[@aarong2606]

Why did Chris just pass after the mind over matter? Everyone was tapped put and he had the ability to draw his deck and make mana equal to the number of cards in his hand basically. Like draw 70 and then discard to make mana to cast oracle or lab man etc. Strange for sure

[@FYLKINGJOKER]

Hope he releases the azami deck list

[@yoshiman9521]

9:15 i think mark could have tried to go infinite off of the brightstone ritual with reiterate

[@thetogtube2]

KADENA is a super fun deck :)

[@Rookie_Leader]

I might be mistaken but morph abilities do not go on the stack and cannot be responded to. Tell me if it snt the case

[@MTGMuddstah]

You can't respond to a creature being morphed, but you can respond to their ability going on the stack from when they do morph iirc. I might be wrong though.

[@xgxwills2857]

I have a Kadena deck and she is amazing. I built her for $100 and that is honestly all you really need for her to be quite threatening. Just make sure to have other effects that draw you cards (guardian project and beast whisperer are great in the deck) as you don't want the deck to solely hinge on Kadena for it to work.

[@piquelle2774]

Kadena is a really powerful and poorly understood deck to build. I hope though in the future more support is printed because all kadena decks are basically the same.

[@RomanNumerDos]

@@piquelle2774 I mean, tbf, there's only certain ways to build morph/manifest decks. I love my Kadena deck as well. She wins by swinging wide or the infinite card draw engine with Lab Man.

No - It was countered by the Patron Wizard - notice it beeing tapped..

[@kickinwang1817]

Chris countered it with patron wizard, but Andrew did not include that in the narration.

[@CaptTelnet]

11:00 I have an Azami deck and this was absolutely agonizing to watch. Is he not running a lab man effect? He clearly knows what mind over matter does, I saw him use it's untap effect for mana later in the game. "Discard a card: You may tap OR UNTAP target ARTIFACT, creature, OR LAND." He had all the mana he needed to win that turn, just dig for lab man/Jace/Thassa's oracle and discard to untap for counter spells as needed with mind over matter, not to mention patron wizard in play as well. Maybe he was intentionally not winning with lab man because he was on camera? I just find it hard to believe a dude who is running mana drain, mind over matter, mox diamond, time spiral, etc. isn't running a lab man effect. Plus he also singleton rifted something when he had enough cards to untap mana crypt with mind over matter to overload it. Really strange play pattern, was he going easy on them?

[@LivePhive5]

I thought mono blue was going to win but I guess deals reign over all

[@musicproytgameplayymusica3696]

Azami why I liked deck wizard mono blue

The only proper way to dispose of a Wort player is to throw vegetables in their mouth

Does Chris not know what Patron Wizard does?

[@fredouellet3160]

I don't know why he put it in the deck if it's not for using it! I hate the card especially in multiplayer. If you're the player to the right, you're screwed. Better taking it out completly ;)

An all-Goblin EDH Game 🤔

[@christofferskaderis7045]

I need that azami list

[@CaptTelnet]

I'd look on tapped-out and EDH rec. His deck is probably very similar to ones you'll find there. Most are just minor variations on what could be considered the "standard" Azami deck. Some people go more wizard heavy, while others prefer more spells. For reference, this is my list tappedout.net/mtg-decks/nerds-1/ . Hope that helps.

[@nomadthewolf8169]

Derek could of won the game. Morphing thousand winds on his main phase was such a bad plan. He should of waited till Andrew took out Chris. Cuz Andrew's board would of been tapped, and there no doubt Mark was gonna swing to Andrew with a few creatures. That would of left Derek with all the power~

Azami and krenko at the table. Must...hyper focus....kadena... 😂🤷‍♂️

[@davidarbour2683]

you need to uprdage your krenko decklist doesnt have pyroblast on it so its just that card Or miss more ? and a jeweled lotus ? the new wheel effect should help more to replenish your hand... muxus grandee is a beast in krenko deck now. with the trigger i won so many games. that match was fun to watch but a LOT of mistakes about azami players. seriously at some point my eyes was bleeding...
