Thank God his glorious haircut is still the same. It's been the same for his entire mtg career.

Reid "The Duke" Duke

[@nicholasd.5017]

I feel like the commentators are overrating how good knight is in the deck. Yes, it’s good, but this isn’t legacy. He’s not gonna wasteland you 4 times. It’s just going to be a big creature that will a coup,e horizon canopies and a gavony township, but reid won’t be incredibly behind. It’s good, but not that good.

[@mikekenny1698]

Devoted Company is such a cool deck, like sure it's a combo deck but can also function just as a decent midrange deck with scooze and knight

[@Andrew-sx7wq]

This announcer knows some good things, but needs to calm down a bit and maybe realize that his lines aren't always correct.

[@timw9745]

@@qumaden Yeah wtf, just count the types... Is he really giving us advise on how to count?

[@marx_avenger6137]

"Reid Duke is the poster child for playing fair decks in any format"...so in Vintage he is known for Storm and in Legacy he was known for elves (fair is kinda stretch there).

[@Miracle-lg7fr]

5:53 BG decks look to punish your opponents mana ? Sometimes I feel like commentators just say things just so their isn't silence...I'd prefer silence if this is the alternative

[@matthewradabaugh1635]

This is true though, they used ghost quarter and field of ruin to hinder one's ability to cast spells. It helps them beat the opponent top decks by cutting them off from some colors or utility lands. IN addition

[@ryanroberts5422]

Game three decided on that Knight of Reliquary NOT getting the fetch land.

[@巨型刺蝟]

That's huge, I guess he didn't fetch to slightly increase the odds of drawing a land?

[@MuxusLordofthehorde]

That’s what separates the pros from amateurs.

[@shannon5286]

I was expecting Reid to make Zirui go through the combo in game 1. In Baltimore, he made Decandio go through all the steps.

[@zeyro666]

“Anover one” “Free knights of the reliquary” “Oh he has a fourf one? Fourf knight here” “Tarmogoyf is a four five. We have free original types and free of four basic types” “Especially wiv tarmogoyf” “Unlikely the combo will go frough but I don’t fink Reed will tap so I’m going to value frough to dig frough my deck no way to push it frough” Forget Horazon’s Journal, we’ve got Horazon’s Canopy up in here. Why the actual fuck did you have Eduardo commentate when he cannot speak English? What is this madness? Would you ask a quadriplegic to drive your car?

[@benrehbeck7431]

Reid might make me switch teams...

[@jamesworleyiii2797]

I've only played Commander, so I'm curious about the names of the decks they are playing (black green midrange and devoted company). These are names that the players themselves gave it, or are they generic names based on exactly what is in the deck?

[@ragingtempestus6566]

Generic names that describe what's in the deck and what it does

[@ciderman13576]

Yeav ots all generic. Colors + whatever the deck does or whatever the key card(s) are in the deck

[@OldSchoolGM94]

Game 1 was so good until the end. I love Modern midrange duels. Goyfs and Collected Companies and Liliana is hot.

[@dervakommtvonhinten517]

what happened on 55:47??? is he putting a card from his sideboard in his deck, in front of the eyes of all? wtf???

[@mehmehxxx]

Looks like he was told by the judge to put it in there. Maybe he had 59 cards after side board... I thought that would be cause for dq but I’m no judge so...

[@WebPocket]

At 11:00, Zhou tapped a summoning sick noble hierarch for mana? Did I miss something?

[@dracorabbid]

He was using the Convoke from Chord of Calling which doesnt care about summoning sickness rather than tapping the noble for mana.

[@cbnvhs08]

that announcer needs to go.

[@benyura]

At 4:16 does he sac the fetch land with knight of the reliquary? That is a fetch land, isn't it? Isn't that a misplay, it's not a plains/forest, and why wouldn't he fetch and then trigger the knight to get 2 land cards in the graveyard?

@etru6 Thank you, that makes a lot more sense and I don't know why I didn't consider that it was just attacking.

[@Andrew-sx7wq]

This is quite literally the only deviation from the statement and Vintage is a weird, unfair format. Feels a bit contrarian to assert this.

[@benrehbeck7431]

Reid has also stated that his version of storm isn't even that good relatively, he just plays it cuz it's the most fun version

@@tbaggins5349 not saying its not powerfull, im saying its a bad deck if u dont have that combo. Its a bunch of underwhelming creatures and thats about it. It has no plan B to win if the opponet stops the combo,

[@trumpetperson11]

@@Dragracingduleist who knew? A combo deck is bad without the combo. /s I think the company deck has a much better fall back plan than most other modern combo decks. What is gifts storm going to do if you don't ever draw gifts or grapeshot? What is ad naus going to do without the namesake card?

[@tylerwiggins662]

the games were good however Reid's opponent made a rather bad decision side boarding in those remorseful clerics. I think there are quite a few people that make mistakes like this one and side board in something along those lines against Jund not realizing that it really doesn't do anything and ins't worth the card slot against Jund or BGx or etc. Cards like this, as well as rest in peace, just are not effective in this match up and focus on the wrong strategy. the kind of mindset you want going into a match up like this one is basically "how can I grind my opponent out longer than they can grind me out". This is what he accomplished with cards like sigarda. Amazing clock, very hard to kill for BG midranged, and has a passive ability that is useful.

[@SoMainstream]

couple the inability to pronounce cards, and no clue what's going on in the game i can't stand listening to Eduardo. He reminds me so much of rashad miller.....

[@Angle1Of2Darkness]

Complain Or Gain I've watched them all, Jeff isn't half the player Reid is. Reid has been been on the top 5 magic players for years now and mid-range is his thing. Ill trust the most successful mid-range player in the world over a amature pro.

[@deadeyeridge]

I'm a simple man. I hear an announcer say "Firtteen" and "I fink", and I click dislike.

The "Th" sound is unique to only English, so if English is the commentator's second language, makes sense that he struggles to pronounce words correctly.
