MERRY GRIX-MAS! Legacy Grixis Control Collab with 5-0 Trophy Machine JamesKisau! Jace, TMS MTG

[@albertarvadottosen3512]

To explain the corpse counter a bit, I believe it’s just meant as a reminder for paper magic that this should be exiled when it dies. Without the counter it’s much easier to forget, especially on complicated boards.

[@AaronRotenberg]

Then in LCI they introduced finality counters, which are the same thing except they actually have the rules text written into the counter now.

[@Red_Mag3]

Appreciate Finality counters being introduced, as you can Hex Parasite them off if needed and actually remove the exile effect.

[@jochenkirn9468]

​@redmage910 Or move them to other creatures. I will have to try that sometime in edh. Maybe to my opponent's creatures. I'm not sure if it is possible, but that would be an achievement to unlock.

[@Red_Mag3]

I'd be really into a "bad counters matter" edh strat.

[@AidinVaziri31]

Bosh: Introduce yourself James: I'm excited to play Grixis Control! ... lmao never change

[@JamesKisau]

Thanks Brian! This was a blast 🖤💙❤

[@BoshNRoll]

Thanks for coming on!

[@dimensionalineage]

And you utilize words such as "confluence" in regular discourse. I like it.

[@JamesKisau]

I think I just had Wretched Confluence on the brain that day@@dimensionalineage

[@jaredschroeder7555]

I love when you have guests on. Youre able to entertain alone, much less talking nerdy mtg stuff with another mtg expert, so its always a treat. It has the same vibe as some eternal glory episodes but with game play:)

[@sagestetson3489]

Last time I paired into James online I decided to play around bolt by not casting thoughtseize and then got my tendrils trigger stifled. Now my local group loves to give me a hard time for now playing around stifle bird

[@philippsemlinger2220]

This is your peak content for me, since you're talking the lines out with another expert! I always love your Control content and once I've finished my Bachelor I'll finally buy into Legacy and send you some sweet Control donations :)

[@RagingPoo]

42:10 If the Tendrils was in their hand, they couldn't Beseech for a ritual because Gaea's Will was active, so the Tendrils would end up exiled.

[@Avivasaur]

I’m not in the patreon (broke college student life) But i also wanna echo how cool it is to have guests on. Cause you know the format super well, but you don’t get to grind reps with a deck, and hearing people who have that knowledge is super insightful and fun! Thank you!

[@Amphidsf]

I'm sure it's already been said, but comments are good for the algorithm. The corpse counter is just there as a memory aid. A lot of cards with persistent effects use something similar, the one which comes to mind is that Black legend from m19, Isareth the Awakener, which upon reread also uses a corpse counter.

[@MaeseEidos]

James was a lovely guest and you're a machine as always. Loved this one.

[@Borkybaby]

I’m here for the “maaaaaana” hahaha. Love me some Bosh n roll. Love our goofy magic community. How we all pronounce things differently. Except for you that play your lands up front haha. You all are savages 😘 merry Christmas everybody.

[@Jaesnek]

Merry Christmas! I couldn't word it over the weekend, but thank you for supporting the trans lifeline. They've saved more than one of my friends in the queer community. It felt really nice to hear the words you said.

[@midnalight6419]

This really is christmas. 2.5 hours, baleful strix, and a trophy. All is well in the world.

[@jochenkirn9468]

Merry Christmas, Brian!

[@BoshNRoll]

Thank you! 🙏🏻

[@TheSamzidat]

A Teddy Grixis video on the Bosh n roll channel? It’s a true Christmas miracle 😎😎😎

[@FreeGibbsEnergy]

Bosh Bolts you when you're Dazing He'll Grief Reanimate...

[@ragingtempestus6566]

Don’t matter if you’ve been bad or good, Just don’t tap out for goodness sake…. Ohhhh

[@dalemackenzie4320]

The corpse counter is only to help remind you which creatures will be exiled if they would leave the battlefield. If you somehow remove a corpse counter from a creature that was put onto the battlefield this way, the replacement effect that will exile it continues to apply. Similarly, moving the corpse counter onto another creature has no effect on that creature; the replacement effect will continue to apply to the original creature.

[@watchinghh]

TIL Corpse Counters are from Alpha Corpse counters first appeared on Scavenging Ghoul in Alpha as an unnamed counter which was later errated to be a corpse counter. At the end of each turn, the Ghoul would gain a corpse counter for each creature that died that turn. It could then exchange a corpse counter to regenerate itself.

[@ZeroDividesByYOU]

Hello! Merry Christmas!

[@msammon]

I took out Stifle Bird for hidetsugu consumes all, but after seeing the buyback with k-command I think I'm putting it back in! My only hesitation is not having things like blood moon or ruination to fight against lands-style strategies, but maybe you don't need them...

[@salutoris]

Kisau and Bosh on the same vid? That's quite the Christmas gift!

[@The-Nomad1]

You know it's a good deck when you start cackling like a villain in the middle of the game

[@Dracomandriuthus]

Brian just be like "USea Ponder= doomsday", cohost goes "IDK what this is" on the thoughtseize vs doomsday and Brian immediately goes "doomsday"

[@TribeWars1]

Oh nooo, Bosh punts and we get an extra game as a result. Devastating!

[@gileswebinger8147]

Honorary 5-0 is the best kind of 5-0!

[@FreeGibbsEnergy]

Ohhh, Bosh yeet the snow land A Coatl's too damn slow... You need force of will You play shark standstill And your paired with sneak and show

[@Weregoatee]

It's wild to me you're still under 50k subs. Merry grix-mas :D

[@lykesorad]

james is awesome, so psyched to see him on!

[@TurtleBazooka]

5 - 0 with Idiot Bird LET'S GOOOOOOO

[@Vennomite]

Yeah. Look out of screen is common for n64 games. Goldeneye speedruns are done looking at the floor.

[@andreapoggi4621]

Now I want to start playing legacy for real and I’ll play a Grixis control back to basics deck

[@tinyprince]

How does Nimble Obstructionist compare to Tishana's Tidebinder? Is being a nigh uncounterable cantrip more worthwhile than the body and permanent effect?

[@leftysheppey]

Sweet, I didn't think you'd be uploading today. Gives me something to do today 😂

[@edde2429]

I'm really intrigued what the stroke of midnight is for and if it ever gets boarded out. Cool stuff!

[@sleepingbeluga4000]

Merry Christmas!!

[@derekcline950]

Wait a second... this isn't A Charlie Brown Christmas...

[@Hyonam]

this upload is the real xmas present

[@johnkater5276]

Grixis Controlmas! Truly a holiday miracle!

[@grnman86]

I’d love to see a legacy shell run stalactite stalker. I love the card so much.

[@outfoxies]

I gotta admit, this is not the kind of list I was expecting to see but you can't argue with results

[@skirk248]

Merry Christmas to all

[@firedrake110]

We're only in the deck tech, but I've already noticed that everything in the deck dies to a bowmaster ping...

[@Pharmalade]

Merry Christmas!

[@Vuurgeest]

Your guest is either being cut by the anti downtime software or their mic is freaking out. It's not annoying enough to stop this from being awesome content, but very noticable. At any rate keep up the good work!

[@music00soba]

christmas pack get merry if youre boshing

[@L1ttleWarrior13]

Merry Christmas y'all!!!!

[@MortenMoellMusic]

Merry Corpse Counter Christmas 🎉😂

[@whatwas44]

Love this list.

[@nate1004]

I’m interested in the choice of nimble obstructionist versus Tishana’s Tidebinder.

[@music00soba]

going to assume its because it blocks delver while tidebinder doesnt

[@music00soba]

plus the additional upside of kcommand bouncing it after pitching it

[@JamesKisau]

I haven't had the chance to really try Tidebinder yet though in theory I like how difficult it is to interact with Obstructionist

[@nate1004]

All good points. I didn’t say the choice was wrong, just interesting.

[@JamesKisau]

@@nate1004 of course! The great thing about this deck is the near limitless options for the brewer. As long as you keep Kolaghan’s Command that is 😎

[@lucamasseroni7]

But why not the ring?

[@richardwylde5431]

🔥🔥🔥

[@MehrGills]

I haven't gotten to watch the video yet, considering I have family activities today, but I do want to appreciate the title fakeout saying "trophy" and "5-0" for the clicks. It's not misleading or anything, just worded to include important keywords

[@LucksackGames]

You can control me! Happy Holidays fam.

[@TeddyKeezer]

Good stuff!!!!

[@turgid4391]

Oh yea dude
