Most of the time, Mana Tithe is a bad card that won't do what you need it to do but that one time in 100, you are an instant, immediate legend, a story of PURE evil. (that's the best play I have ever seen, so brutal)

[@jacobtrahan1993]

Elder dragon Hijinks feels like I’m going to a friends house to sit and watch them play commander and I love that

[@Punintentionally]

Olivia’s Mana Tithe play reminds me of the time I did that with my Pod. My mono red deck counted each opponents Commanders with Red Elemental Blast, Pyroblast and Tibalt’s Trickery. I was punished for my sins but it was worth it.

[@matthugenberg8869]

Hey, so that isn't how mirage mirror works. It says until end of turn, not the beginning of the next endstep. So turning your mirror into a dragon on the end step before your turn will make it a dragon only on that end step, and when your turn rolls around, it's a mirror again. Not like it matters too much this game, you made it a dragon that made you 16 mana, but like, so you know in the future

[@Herobizkit597]

"Romper bomper, stomper boo. Tell me, tell, tell me do. Magic Mirror, please tell me today - did all my friends have fun at play?" Pure Canadiana at its purest. 🍁

[@user-kh3th5eh2g]

I'm not sure but I believe Chase couldn't have used that "slow" treasure token as they have to tap and sac and if it was a creature it had summoning sickness, I believe ultimately it wouldn't have stopped her progression however

[@MM-lv7iy]

More importantly, it locked down her time sieve! As a creature it didn’t have haste, so she wouldn’t have been able to activate it! Unless she activated it In response to Magda’s ability, and they just did a cheat step I didn’t notice…

[@obicortes8199]

Oh no, I hope Olivia finds her Ivy deck. I was really looking forward to seeing it and comparing it to my own.

[@mitchstanek7809]

Chris published a fantastic video on how he went about making his deck. I invite anyone reading this to check it out on the commander mechanic channel.

[@PubStompMTG]

Very good episode! Im a simple person. If I see someone playing Bruticlad, I watch!

[@draco4569]

More like "Brutal-clad". That commander is disgusting when played right. I'm working on a Brudiclad commander deck myself, and the synergies I've been seeing have been insane! One of my favorite cards in the deck is Mycosynth Golem. My version of the deck is heavy on artifacts and artifact creatures, so making multiple copies of Mycosynth Golem (since affinity stacks) is a great way to allow me to combo off like crazy if combined with some card draw. Encroaching Mycosynth makes this combo even better!

[@kibernick]

Such a fun game and lovely guests (the “I like pain” and the reactions cracked me up 😂). Imma steal ideas from both those Blue/Red(/Black) decks to make a “Let’s Rock” deck with Toggo and Silas

[@brandonrip6445]

While I really wanted to see Brudiclad do the thing, Seeing Chase go off in such glorious fashion more than makes up for it.

[@theCityBear]

Loved how much fun you had during this game!

[@chiefsymeris]

"Oh you're dead? Hell yeah!" I FELT that lmao! Murderous Chase is awesome

[@Demotros]

33:33 Is this a legal play? I was of the understanding that if you activate any abilities during the clean up that a new clean up step begins, and wouldn’t allow the mirage mirror to pass through as a copy of a creature until the next turn. 514.3/a

[@alzini89]

I believe it was illegal. To work the way he intended, Mirage Mirror would have to read "Until the beginning of the next end step" not until end of turn. But really it didn't matter much since he got 16 treasures, he could have easily afforded to pay 2 on his turn. But also Chase should have waited for Olivia's end step to sac the treasures to go fetch the dragon.

[@harleywilliams1821]

came here to say exacty this

[@Dark-Pikachu1]

@@alzini89 it kinda did the dragon doesn’t have haste?

[@Wyrm7774]

@@Dark-Pikachu1 mirage mirror wouldn't have haste but it wouldn't have summoning sickness either. Since mirage mirror was already in play for a whole turn, it does not matter if it becomes a creature. If he had just played mirage mirror and turned it into a creature it would have summoning sickness though

[@DraygaFlight]

Hijinks were had! You know its good when everyones laughing, even the person who got got!

[@pauloduarte5346]

There is nothing better then after a great night of playing commander, then a great episode of EDH! Thanks for the laughs, the great content, and topping off my MTG filled night!

[@fajenthygia5760]

that vaporwave playmat is frigging amazing

[@ericap1098]

Love it when a new episode drops! This was such a delightful episode as well. Love the banter. Awesome decks all around, but Chase's takes the cake for me.

[@CommanderMechanic]

Hey I know that guy

[@owencoffey5013]

Thank you so much for this amazing game, the mana tithe really had me laughing!

[@vawn520]

that acronym for nft's is great! Man what a game, Chase figuring out how to kill everyone with those extra turns is impressive I know I would get lost trying to figure that stuff out. Great game though fun as always

[@cheezyatease5223]

The Mana Tithe got me. That was really good. It reminds me of one of my games where I went to play a mid-game Sol Ring, and my friend didn’t want me to have the mana so he counterspelled it, but I’m petty enough that I responded to the counterspell with Pact of Negation 😂

[@ronmarshall1566]

Evil giggles and Wise Guys got to love it 🤘💚

[@angelowilliams5239]

Olivia talking about Romper Room and I realize I'm old now 🤣🤣🤣

[@wnightshade]

I goota watch more Chase - she is a delight. Thanks for another awesome game!

[@ericap1098]

*they

[@jokerES2]

@@ericap1098 Yep. The EDH Hijinks team really ought to do pronouns on here, especially if guests might not go by what they present as.

[@ericap1098]

But everyone does refer to Chase as they throughout the video.

[@wnightshade]

Thank you for the correction - I missed that!

[@PalaCannito]

I love Mana Tithe, especially when it's the antithesis to an Izzet spell of any kind. Izzet deserves it. Great game! Ton of fun to watch.

[@marc0s158]

So cool to see Chris! i hope he has a chance to come on again! :)

[@buddadragonmtg4848]

Always love seeing a new video with you amazing ladies. Chase that deck is pretty slick and mean love it lol.

[@tyleroliver1819]

The perfect cast of EDH all star Mana Tithe

[@GrinningFeline]

I am legally changing my name to Christawful.

[@green_dragon_knight]

Chase’s deck was awesome! So many heavy hitters, and getting a Nat 20 on the dragon was incredible 😅

[@kairoakiyama2480]

This is the exact reason I run mana tithe in my commander deck, 99% of the time it's dead, but when it's not, it's the best counterspell in the game or at least it feels like it lol

[@jolynvilla6934]

Chase's deck was so fun!

[@bodhibrandsma3450]

YAAAAASSSSSS NEW EPISODE!!

[@christopherscheller1404]

This was a nice game. Lots of combat, which I love.

[@AJStringham]

Damn that treasure deck, although I was surprised they unearthed Magda and such. With 23 treasures, unearth Marionette Master so you have 20 remaining and put the counters on it. Now you have 80 life to drain in increments of 4 and then spend 3 to unearth Mayhem Devil and that would have been game. Even so, great game everyone!

[@redartifice]

Chase's deck is sweet! I have a breeches/ Malcolm deck that mines crypto (treasures) and mints nfts (exiles unique cards off decks) but half the fun of piloting it is that it turns into an hour long dunking on techbros

[@joshbraymiller1570]

once time sieve hit the table, it almost became bullying at that point 😂. just present that you’re taking 5 extra turns and get on with it.

[@stratuvarious8547]

Chase doesn't need to understand references, they just need to be quiet, cute and eventually murder all their opponents.

[@alucarddelta6576]

I had a friend deflecting swat a bojuka bog once that was a fun time xD

[@joshshin6819]

As a Dina Soulsteeper main decker. I was glad to see someone else play her. I love the rare turn 5 win I pull out going infinite.

[@drsherifff]

It's my Commander Mechanic!

[@johanbostrom4825]

My wife plays Dina so it is fun to see how others pilot her.

[@rapier1986]

Great show ladies... Just so that people are aware for future mirage mirror doesn't lose its copy ability at the end step it loses it at the end of turn; so copying something at the beginning of an end step doesn't keep the copy for the following turn

[@christopherscheller1404]

I like the guests’ decks a lot in this episode. I’m trying to build Ashnod the Uncaring, and they’re both using cards I’m considering. And Ancient Copper Dragon is one of my favorite cards in my collection

[@TheRadaR581]

You literally assembled a doomsday device! IMO those are some of the best wins!

[@tapoutologist]

Omg I’m just saying, I’m turn 2 into this game and I have to say they all hit rule 38 and 39 of being an adult… Rule -38 as an adult you can eat what you want when you want Rule -39 You can eat in the shower or the bathtub….

[@tapoutologist]

Not lying, I had potato soup in the shower one day after work because I was so hungry… and Ramen noodles in the bathtub…. Being an adult is amazing! We can spend a fortune on magic cards or painted on cardboard LOL 😂

[@richardpaley]

That mana tithe was great, Chase's deck was interesting

[@gsimscovers]

I’ve only cast mana tithe once, it stopped a thoracle win and his library was entirely gone. Like they say in Anchorman, 60% of the time, it works every time

[@GeorgeAdolio]

Yeah the Moo Wizards 🐮🐄🧙‍♂️🧙🏽‍♂️

[@mikedicesare7460]

Who saw that coming? Everyone! Death by Dirtle!

[@Kaisingsens]

can't control my bad habit: mirrorpool enters tapped >.< anyways: great episode as always :)

[@salsalas116]

I thought you needed to tap and sacrifice a treasure token as part of the cost to gain the mana. I don't think you can sacrifice the treasure tokens if they are already tapped for some other reason, ... ie. improvise

[@EDHijinks]

Chase was tapping them with the dragon's ability to draw cards. Magda then sacs the tapped ones for her ability. No mana being made!

[@danielspahn2593]

If she was sacrificing them to the Magda she should have been searching for dragons or artifacts. She was using them to play spells from her hand

[@void91g]

First trigger missed from Olivia, white spells gained life twice so missed commander trigger from arelias fury 😁 epic Boros spells getting double command triggers is way I built mine haha

[@matteobagni1235]

I will be that person (because it happened several times). Mirage mirror is not a trigger, whatever happens the effect is reset every end turn. Unless I missed something?

[@matthugenberg8869]

You are correct. I just made the same comment since yours is so buried and I didn't see it.

[@MTGWolfGirl]

I have clicked the button. And the things, the things they ding their dreaded ding.

[@AnkhInfinitus]

I like hearing about therapy sessions in such a casual way. That really needs to be normalized. You reminded me to do the thumbs up with that.

[@isaiahwelch8066]

Second comment: Also to answer Commander Mechanic, all of the 0-cost Pacts -- Slaughter Pact, Summoner's Pact, etc. -- all have the clause, "At the beginning of your next upkeep, pay [MANA COST]. If you don't, you lose the game." I've actually lost to being unable to pay for Summoner's Pact, the green one, before.

[@mopardude109]

never get rid of collection and if so send what you dont want my way 😂 lol

[@lightfut]

"that card can't stop me because I can't/won't read"

[@romuloramospereira7882]

Chirs's turn 3: Mirrorpool shoulda ETB Tapped

[@MrLupis26]

Firesong and Sunspeaker are truly Bro-vines lol.

[@troylambert1601]

No one expects the Mana Tithe.

[@sxychtulhu2425]

ooh that man tithe is gonna haunt him xD

[@isaiahwelch8066]

Just so Commander Mechanic is aware (and anyone else, for that matter), Immortal Coil is a card that says "If you have no cards in your graveyard, you lose the game." Which is the win-con currently in my Marneus Calgar Esper deck right now.

[@rwmj_7569]

Just started the video, but here's hoping Olivia has Arcane Bombardment in that deck.

[@Ryadic]

Olivia: *Mana Tithe* Chris: You just ruined my whole career. Olivia: *cackles loudly* Seriously that laugh.

[@1ntegrator]

Great video 😊 At some point in some video someone has to stop Chase, they won every game I watched in which they participated 😂

[@jehhhGames]

Chase is my favorite guest XD

[@frandynamo2143]

Awesome vid as always! The closest thing I can think of to your question about "if an opponent doesn't cast a spell on their next turn they lose the game" could be.. Casting one of the "pact" spells like intervention pact, pact of negation so on and then casting sudden substitution exchanging control of your pact spell to someone else. If they don't have the mana or perhaps aren't able to produce the correct colours for the upkeep trigger that can be a hella nasty way to get someone lol Pretty sure its a deck out there. Anywho did you decide if your gonna keep Dina? And that unearth deck was BONKERS. GGs

[@ahoxk7410]

Mirage mirror says until end of turn, not until end of next turn. Doesnt it still end at cleanup even if you do it during end of turn?

[@theaeskey2502]

Chris’ deck is by far my favorite. But chase is by far my favorite player. They’re so casual and chill. 😊

[@GreenLikeGrass]

Fyi the best magic spoon flavour is cinnamon roll

[@amazingronaldo9656]

Romper bomper stomper boo

[@segagenesisMTG91]

I have my own Dina Soul Steeper deck, and I understand Alias' wanting to shelf that deck because it's a bit of a slow and grindy deck, but I implore you, give Dina another go if you like annoying your playgroup with ping damage. My playgroup barely tolerates Dina when I have a great life value engine set up for her to abuse😂

[@theArcosa]

You can't sacrifice a Treasure token that's been animated by Cyberdrive Awakener on the same turn it enters the battlefield, because it has summoning sickness and the sacrifice ability requires {T}. It wouldn't have mattered, since she could have just sacrificed it in response to the trigger, before it's animated.

[@marc0s158]

im not actually sure about that. since it is an artifact first, and is later transformed into a creature, I believe it retains the ability to tap as summoning sickness only applies to permanents that enter the battlefield as creatures. would need someone more versed than me to confirm tho

[@theArcosa]

@@marc0s158 If you ever let it turn into a creature, it cannot tap for mana that turn because all permanents have summoning sickness, only it isn’t meaningful unless they’re creatures. For example, if you use Hive of the Eye Tyrant’s activated ability to turn it into a creature, it cannot be used for mana on the turn it enters the battlefield. The idea that “summoning sickness only applies to permanents that enter the battlefield as creatures” is incorrect. Otherwise, there would be no point for a lot of the abilities that animate stuff (e.g. Nissa Who Shakes the World, Destiny Spinner, etc.) to give the target haste.

[@AquaHeartVGCGaming]

No this is not correct. Its an artifact first. Even if entering then becoming a creature ots an artifact first. Also as stated it can be sacced before becoming a creature

[@theArcosa]

@@AquaHeartVGCGaming This is literally what I said. However, in the video, she let Cyberdrive Awakener's ability resolve before sacrificing the Treasure.

[@fl1735]

Actually, every permanent gets summoning sickness. But only creatures are affected by it. So anything that becomes a creature on the turn it entered still can't tap or attack.
