Quintessential Commander is a Singapore based Magic the Gathering EDH Commander gameplay series where we just want to have fun playing MTG together, joking and laughing around. We aim to produce high-quality, entertaining and fast-paced gameplay videos that will make you LOL.
We're playing with some of the new precons and new legends from March of the Machine (MOM), the latest Magic the Gathering set! It's filled with phyrexians and heroes, and the commanders we're playing today are Gimbal, Gremlin Prodigy, Sidar Jabari of Zhalfir, Yargle and Multani, and Etali, Primal Conqueror.
We've got knights, artifacts, a flickering dinosaur and literally the MOST POWERFUL commander from March of the Machine!

Sees title: "Oh man! I can't wait to see Matt play the new Etali!" Little did I know....

[@QMTG]

Well…he was there

[@MonkeyMannism]

Maaan, such a 'feel bad' moment watching Matt get blown out like that. I hope you guys put him on the next episode playing the same deck. I was really hyped to see him play a twisted version of his signature commander.

[@QMTG]

Yeah I know I wished we recorded a second game tbh

[@MonkeyMannism]

@@QMTG Yeah, I get that. And hey, it's not like the game wasn't still fun to watch. So don't sweat it too much. It would just have been great to see Matt do his thing. Hopefully he'll be back soon. I really enjoy his antics and influence on the show 😁

[@ToliG123]

He got access to green and played 3 ramp spells and that's it lol

[@lansook6605]

Hope to see Matt & Etali for the upcoming games!

[@y2aalkis606]

Matt and Etaliiiii! What a treat

[@QMTG]

Oh dear

[@y2aalkis606]

@@QMTG Welp...

[@QMTG]

Sad

[@TheBlackGears]

😬

[@gypsieking3280]

I am sad for Matthew, but this comment thread is making me smile.

[@nostalgicmoonchild]

This was the first Quintessential MTG video that i ever watched and boy, you guys got me hooked (especially after that 1 hit K.O. on Matt and his Etali deck LMAO😂) The way that you guys give the game a lighthearted and casual vibe makes your videos SOOOO enjoyable to watch; keep up the awesome content good sirs!🫡🔥💪🏻

[@Mr_Grunt]

I have never seen Matthew that excited to explode his veggies and his board

[@ANZLegatos]

I love the new Etali! Can't wait to see it in action! EDIT: :|

[@QMTG]

Nice haha

[@DuhSheet]

The animation quality has improved so much! Great video guys! Also, GG Matt LMAO

[@robertmitchell3030]

Recently new to the channel. Great video! Just one note…when Paul cast Nameless Inversion targeting Syr Konrad Gabriel could have activated Syr Konrad in response (possibly 2 or 3 times based on the lands/colors he had available). If one creature hit the graveyard Paul would have died and Nameless Inversion would fall off of the stack.

[@Alwayz114]

Looking forward to March of the Mattchine: Aftermatt. I hope we get to see Etali that time

[@dab022]

Always a good time when I see a new Quintessential commander video.

[@bashlindsay7618]

I turned my Tinker Time Precon into a Treasure Deck around Rashmi and Ragavan. Its awesome

[@Insaiyangod21]

Cant believe I just now found u guys literally my new favorite channel 😅

[@QMTG]

Aw thanks!

[@skykur]

Yargle and etali in the same vid. It’s a super short one. Checks out 😂

[@MarvelOfRain]

Sidar is actually not a name, but a title like “king” or “general”. There is another EDH commander named Sidar: Sidar Kondo of Jamuraa. Being the Selesnya partner commander from the original run he is quite popular. My point the title should be “… Jabari vs …”Sorry for the nitpicking, but it was really bothering me for whatever reason.

[@QMTG]

Oh! I did not know that. Thanks!

[@AtraxaApologist]

8:32 that was fucking hilarious LOL

[@QMTG]

Hahahha ikr

[@nuggetsml]

Matt did all that research on gruul flicker just to flicker himself out of the game

[@jarlhaenen6503]

I was so happy to see a video with Matt in it again, and then you do this!

[@CodenameFuyuki]

Hey, can you not use the phyrexian complete lands? It is literally impossible to tell them apart in the overhead shots.

[@QMTG]

It’s impossible irl too lol

[@BadCookies1234]

Unpopular Opinion: Matt deserved to die for running Etali in the first place.

[@skykur]

Unpopular, but 100% the right play.

[@CosmicGiggalo]

To be fair to Matthew, he did say at the start he was very sleepy so he probably wasn't in the best get up and go for this episode. He'll be back with this deck no doubt!

[@QMTG]

Exactly

[@mr.mammuthusafricanavus8299]

Yargle and Multani are surprisingly silly for a vanilla 18/6 creature. I put a ''Yargltani'' deck together and in the first game got to about 8 mana (Sol Ring, Arcane Signet) on T5 with Selvala Heart of the Wilds and Shadowheart Dark Justicar out and than it got CRAZY: - Cast Yargltani, got a draw trigger from Selvala - Paid the 1 forest, tapped Selvala for 18 mana - Cast Return of the Wildspeaker drew 18 cards - Cast Undying Evil on Yargltani - Cast Ruthless Technomancer sacrificed Yargltani for 18 Treasures, undying triggers Yargltani comes back as 19/6, triggers Selvala draw a card - Cast Eternal Witness returns Return of the Wildspeaker - Cast Return of the Wildspeaker draw another 18 cards - Cast Essence Harvest drained opponent for 19 life - Cast Supernatural Evil on Ruthless Technomancer 4/4, sacrifices to Shadowheart, draw 4 cards return Ruthless Technomancer sacrifices Yargltani for another 19 Treasures - Proceeded to use the rest of the mana to cast a phat Exsanguinate for 29 and finished the game off LOL My opponents and I were flabbergasted at how it all played out, probably not going to see that happen again anytime soon... The addition of Green to Yargle is HUGE :P

[@koichi3208]

Matt's sleeves are amazing 😂

[@oliverwilson6013]

Don't tone down the upgrade budget! So many channels do 30 - 50 dollar upgrades, not a lot do a decent budget - some of us do infact like to spend our money frivolously on this cardboard crack. Could always do the lower budget option as a primer on deck lists? Best of both worlds 🤠

[@artemoila1]

i was so excited for etali and matt. Sadness went on the stack and resolved very soon...

[@johnlayton5966]

Waited ages for a Matt game... 😮

[@QMTG]

I know right…

[@cathanbreen5294]

Same... that kinda bummed me out lol plus he was playing his corrupted baby Boi 😢

[@brianngo6373]

What app do you use for keeping track of life and commander damage? The companion app one is garbage.

[@loganpowers6081]

I really hope Matt comes back with that deck next time! Seeing him play Etali is always my favorite videos.

[@MrFidorento]

At least we got to see Matt's Takina sleeves

[@amunra792]

Lol I was so excited to see Matt back only to see a swift exit. Just a hello, oh goodbye lol.

[@DerpyLaron]

I practically can hear how the commanders got choose for this. With Matt just shouting "Etaliiiiii" over and over again

[@colink638]

lol finally i havnt seen you guys in like 2 - 3 months it seems like

[@mordecaimorales5055]

Next game, trust me, Matt will play Etali again.

[@woodoowooda_yt1713]

Yoooo ! Nice sleeves Matthew!! Do you mind sharing the link to buy ? :) Great video too!

[@LeBanksy]

This is the crew we are here for

[@chesterfieldthe3rd929]

Matthew quit peeping!!!!😂😂

[@froggystrap1232]

always happy to see Paul :3

[@daynejarrett9816]

My favorite playgroup!

[@lonesamurai2432]

Matt’s back! His waifu, Chandra; my waifu, Nissa. Fitting, since he’s playing Gruul 😂

[@poltergeistskateteam]

Honestly I respect that he got taken out so fast. Sometimes I wonder why other commander channels are so lenient at times they can take people out. It stops the realism of the game for me. Lol

[@QMTG]

Yeah same here. But it still feels somewhat bad

[@maxs1837]

with sidar can't you only discard and draw one per combat? the card reads "Whenever you attack with one or more Knights, if Sidar Jabari of Zhalfir is in the command zone or on the battlefield, draw a card, then discard a card." wouldnt that mean youd just discard and draw one after declaring attackers?

[@liamw.1313]

That’s correct, only one card from Sidar. Did you see Gabriel ever drawing more?

[@phoebesnow7142]

The Awesome Foursome returns!

[@phoebesnow7142]

Well.. Threesome... kinda

[@papaflowers5726]

I've played against that Etali deck a few times before and it is a real menace. You get to 7 mana and win the game. You need to kill that player as soon as possible.

[@tributarioalunos182]

New character unlocked invisible Mathew 😅

[@DuneEcho]

Okay, Paul made the right play for Yargle-tani, but really disappointed that Matt was out so fast after such a long absence. (Poor Matt was sleepy too apparently.) Was totally caught by the mid-video exit title card fake out though! 😆

[@angle1382]

Kinsbaile Cavalier seems super strong with Sidar’s combat damage trigger

[@charleswu830]

Kind of why the price jumped to ~$35

[@starry-dazed]

Unfortunately didn't get to see etali do anything. Maybe next time lol.

[@QMTG]

Maybe..

[@TheDukeOfMTG]

Matt is back! 👏

[@covertgoblue]

Nooooooooooooooooooo I came for Etali!!!

[@QMTG]

Oops..

[@AlexanderGorel]

Guys, your background music is AWESOME !!! And your games are one of the most entertaining and hilarious in the business!!! Always lowing to see you play.

[@QMTG]

Lol thanks!!

[@blaineallen5297]

Wooooo!! My Man Matt is BAAAACK!!! And just like that he is out again!!😢😢😢

[@QMTG]

Yayyyy!!!

[@scarfhat1]

We've all been there matt

[@lisaparker271]

knights is unbelievaly one of the strongest precons since 2017.

[@MrAdi390]

But next time i need MORE Etali gameplay pls 😊

[@MrAdi390]

I know it. In future come a Video who Matt Play The New etali yaehr 😂

[@kairucamp]

I believe matt was taken out first because he would have ran away with the game so I hope we can see more etali

[@Pravinoz]

Matt and Paul switched seats?

[@TheBigPenguu]

Sidar is a beastly deck. Love it.

[@forceofwillhk]

I too got killed by Yargle turn 3 last week...

[@kevinholmes3587]

Gimbal giving the yargle and multani trample is silly

[@QMTG]

Oh lol yes

[@shenryu]

Super excited to see the new etali he's my favorite character from mtg...... poof.

[@QMTG]

Pooooof

[@RafaelGomez-ww7oe]

Why isnt matt in his normal seat!

[@addict139]

why comment 'March of the Mattchine"?

[@QMTG]

Because Matt matters

[@fabiooldani4485]

Need a re-match. Etaliiiii!

[@filiphorvath8932]

Bring Matt and Etali back!

[@drolkida]

Matt and Etali in action haha

[@ZERO-jb8so]

I usually would b mad at a player getting knocked out so fast but as an etali player u have to kill them asap or it gets out of hand fast

[@sarunkunakool2120]

March of the machine

[@RunninOnYT]

Oh no end game thoughts about the decks and the game? Too bad.

[@QMTG]

Yeah sorry, but really few people actually watch that

[@RunninOnYT]

@@QMTG That really is too bad. The insight and aftergame talks are so nice. But I understand!

[@Richuardo]

I was also a fan of those

[@zekeman2615]

“GG Mathew” merch when?

[@mikemartin9345]

It's like we all just witnessed Matt getting exiled frombthe game. Big sad 😢 F for Matt in the chat.

[@charleswu830]

F in chat for Matthew and Etali 😢

[@froggystrap1232]

Etali is a digusting commander, sad Mattew died for his sin

[@SmithLeong]

i came here to watch Etali... LOL

[@wilsongoh2088]

Need more Hulk Smashing ❤

[@andree9412]

Def the right play to knock out Etali, but kinda lame. Was hoping to see Etali pop off :(

[@regail7143]

Lmao, that was probably for the best, your guys decks were fun, but Etali likely would've made finger paint out of you 3

[@QMTG]

Hahahaha I agree lol

[@JiraiyaFrogSannin]

GG Matthew

[@devrev7173]

Yargle and mattani make people quit the game?!?! 😮

[@WolvesRetrobution]

Knights are strong

[@gccstan31]

I stopped watching after Matt died without casting Etali :(

[@QMTG]

:(

[@gaaragresnik4140]

After a long time matt finally is back and then he gets out before doing anything, dont like this .__.

[@rodrigomonitofeliz5041]

F Matthew jajajaja

[@Adrianovaz2007]

Play another game with the same pod or we RIOTTTT

[@fassin666]

Etali coin alt art is so good 🥰

[@Tacti_Kal]

Reminds me of the old school Power Rangers. It's morphing time! Lol

[@fassin666]

omg so true 😮

[@Bryan-T]

As stupid as Etali is, commander damage is even more stupid. If I played paper I wouldn't abide by that rule.

[@Zeromus5555]

Is Paul Trans?

[@DuneEcho]

Why would it matter?

[@skykur]

@@DuneEcho it matters to trans people
