I wanted to thank everyone for their kind words about my decks, and especially thank you to Richard and Seth for showcasing them! It really made my week and was very appreciated.

[@ThomasJohnsen2]

I have watched this episode multiple times. Your decks are excellent!! That time when Seth says: "...cause I can make a rock." (1:36:05) and Richard just bursts into a heartwarming laugh is such a great moment. Thank you.

[@BrewersKitchen]

What's this? A comment to remind you all to smash that like button?! Sounds like a great idea if you ask me!

[@Belena711]

I heard your voice when I read this. Lol

[@VinegarAndSaltedFries]

[@VRanger100]

The dedication to the theme for the Russian Roulette deck is amazing. It's such a fun idea for a good laugh at a random table.

[@TheShitassdick]

There was almost TOO many flop cards. It must have been 1/6 of the whole deck, instead of 1/6 of the non-lands like I thought

[@BacchusGames]

@@TheShitassdick oddly enough, it's neither. there are 12 flop card, which is not the 16 you need for 16th of the deck, nor is it the 10 you need for 1/6th of nonlands.

[@DonovanPresents]

YES! THE DONOVAN BANE! 😂 Always love to hear that!

[@ashadeofnight]

The Bahnhammer

[@drunklog1crecords144]

Joshua G. shall now be referred to as “The Great Architect”

[@VinegarAndSaltedFries]

That Yennett deck is freaking amazing. Great pick Seth…and great week. This whole episode should be a Clash a moment.

[@xEddyTheGr8x]

I mean... I might just have to build Seth's deck & play Russian Roulette every now and again. That just seems hilarious!

[@Karmic_Guide]

Since there is perpetual confusion around the card, Sphinx of the Second Sun inserts the 'beginning phase' between mainphase 2 and endstep. Thus you can only cast instants/permanents with flash (unless otherwise stated) during those times you could normally do so, and there is no other Mainphase in which to cast your permanents/sorceries. Move through combat (Beginning of) Mainphase 2 (Sphinx Triggers) - Untap Step - Upkeep - Draw Step End Step

[@Ironucookuru]

I really don't understand how they don't understand how that card works. I have seen them play it before and they seemed to have figured it out then.

[@anix712]

Yeah, it's actually pretty simple if you RTFC. It *triggers* at the beginning of the post-combat main, but the effect takes place "*After* this phase."

[@artekfrost]

its worded badly, as written it works, but is clunky, if it said after your second main phase, there is another starting phase, it would save text and avoid this confusion

[@Beelzebubster]

Goldfish crew really the GOAT! This is backed by facts, check the receipts people!

[@adamfiliatreault3393]

3/4 are definitely the GOAT

[@adamfiliatreault3393]

Loved the decks that Richard, Seth, and Phil chose this week! Such cool, fun decks. Then there was the degenerate planeswalker combo/destroy all other permanents deck, which shouldn't have surprised me :P

[@tike481]

That was just great lol! Thank you Seth for the commitment to the rule and yes: Exodia indeed obliterate! I don't mind those types of cards as long as you can actually end the game in doing so. Its when you just do it randomly to where now everyone just suffers is just unpleasant and kinda boring as I would like to see decks do what their are supposed to do. It just happened to be this time Crim's deck did what it was supposed to do!

[@Savaniel]

The end of season stats had better count this one as a win for Joshua G!

[@mfitkin]

*points at brain* Can’t blow up my permanents off I don’t have any 😂

[@thirdwavefinance8154]

I love the opening sequence to these

[@atom1496]

These decks are so cool. Should def have another submitted deck week each season.

[@charmandenator5686]

Alternative name for Russian Roulette Spin it to Yennett!

[@JoshRudis]

On this week of "Punt or Bluff?" it's decks by committee! Will Richard throw rocks at everyone or will Seth just randomly flip the win from his library? Tune in to find out!

[@rennysama9752]

I can see a good out in swinging in to steal the monarchy and then just swordsing the big boi that makes hexproof

[@GreenRayJC]

1:46:30 I'm not sure, but I think you can't equip the tokens because they don't have a mana value at all. Their mana value isn't 0.

[@jamescooley5241]

Pog for Joshua G

[@exsnypre]

Crim's deck would be so much more fun with Wheel of Sun and moon to allow Jace Architect of Thought combo wins with Doubling Season.

[@rosavanopheusden5211]

the win this week goes to joshua g lmao

[@schimaera7]

Loved every minute of it. Where do I submit a suggestion if I have something spicey and janky straight out of value town for seth or phil? ^^

[@Constant_Threat]

Donovan Bane = lol. Is that some kind of James Bond Villain or something?

[@TMidander]

Does this episode count as a guest appearance credit by Joshua G. on Commander Clash? :)

[@echoscorpiongaming1841]

Dockside treasure snatching tech... crafty cutpurse.

[@JoeMama-oh8rb]

good to know im not the only one who plays sisay superfriends with all the obliterate spells. 😅

[@PALIGames]

I didn't know you guys were doing Deck list submissions. well dang

[@PeyTons-O-fun]

the new intro is sick

[@Frostgiantbutsmall]

50:17 Get a load of this correct opinion!

[@PUfelix85]

It isn't a MODO bug. The treasure tokens "don't have a mana value, so therefore there is no equip cost". Not "the treasure tokens having 0 mana value and therefore an equip cost of 0".

[@artekfrost]

currently, there isnt a ruling reflecting this, as it hasnt been addressed with the change to mana value over CMC, previously it worked

[@JLPAG1]

I might be wrong, but feel like the keyword landfall is specific to Zendikar

[@lostblank6082]

Could the treasure equipment bugged because they have no mana value as opposed to a mana value of zero? The bug may have been a not a number bug for MODO.

[@kingfuzzy2]

Hope to see some spicy jank ( :

[@dead_yhency]

these decks are sweet

[@benjiboy1337]

I dunno what creatures are in Seth's deck, but there may have been an argument to use Morality Shift after getting the 56 treasures, and then reanimating a load of fatties with Scarab God. With enough ETB interaction, Seth could have parlayed that into a win.

[@Crazymachin3gun]

When is mtgRemy joining goldfish?

[@adriendelplace8755]

Oh yes Phil. If only search for Azcanta had surveil on it.. I want to play disinformation campaign so badly. The sad things is that even some cards printed after surveil was keyworded don't have surveil on them either.. I mean come on Wizards

[@thevp_ssb.]

Let's go Toggo Akiri!

[@highdark4]

*whisper* Clash On

[@DarthSironos]

The russian roulette deck sounds cool in theory. Actually playing it is just ruining the game. 29:00 is a good examle. The concept would work better practically with 1/6 of the cards harming you or helping the enemy without just losing you the game. Yes, losing the game is more flovorful for russian roulette. If everyone was playing the deck... then it would be cool. 34:00 Obliterate in a planeswalker deck. Now there is an obvious, old school, tried and true scumbag move.

[@samelol8149]

Wow crim exodia'd the board

[@Mr_Skellington]

BOOOO THIS MAN

[@jackiemorey6911]

They don't add set mechanics to cards outside the sets they appear in. The exception to this is high complexity sets like commander legends Toggo should absolutely have landfall, Azcanta should not have surveil

[@RyuPlaneswalker]

They are really bad about announcing Viewer Submitted Weeks, I've been checking the description for the past 4 months every week to make sure I didn't miss the announcement and still missed it :(

[@MTGGoldfishCommander]

Sorry about that. We had a pinned comment in the last video and a post in the community tab that stayed up until the submission deadline (last week Wednesday).

[@RyuPlaneswalker]

@@MTGGoldfishCommander It is okay, I was looking at the description, I thought it would be there.

[@CatTechSupport]

There is nothing wrong with mass destruction, Obliterate shows just how important lands actually are. People relying on artifact mana to function or ramp out to get ahead is reason enough to run obliterate if you yourself run more than 38 lands and simple land recursion. You want to show people just how weak a deck really is just start destroying the lands because if a deck cannot recover for land destruction by drawing lands then you failed at having a proper amount of lands.

[@Giecolizard]

It's getting old watching Seth kiss Crim's ass and just team up every video

[@buffmimic2634]

I feel like a lot of shit cards exist for the decks that just love to give them to other people to make it THEIR problem

[@ODIRGO]

So, Phill basically used the same deck I submited that no one chose for the last viewer submitted video, I guess I won't receive any credit for the deck then... Well it doesn't matter, I'm glad to at least look at the deck in action this time.

[@anazron805811]

Really disappointing that the really cool and fun game 1 was ended in such a lame way. It's wild when something comes up that makes me not want to watch the rest of the vid, it's usually crim...

[@jugglingfreak369]

Not a fan of that Planeswalker deck

[@TabbyLikeAKat]

34:20 Yes Crim this is why people don't like watching you in this playgroup. Anyway, that's where I stop watching.

[@TheEchoAlchemist]

I personally like watching him. It's like that griefer/troll friend that every group has. Also, I like that we got multiple games out of it. I highly recommend catching the end of game 2, it's a much more epic ending/teamup. (also he didn't make the deck sooooo)

[@VRanger100]

Joshua G. and the big brain to have Seth and Richard team up this week using his decks.

[@ankhi3585]

" Joshua G. and the big brain" would make for a nice band name.

[@Ricardo-zo1ti]

Skyswallower merging both decks made by the same person is beautiful

[@kingfuzzy2]

I play it in my narsett group hug deck it's such a fun card : D

[@amarauk9687]

If a Boros equipments *no equipments* deck with a goblin that literally creates rocks to fling around isn't the pinnacle of MtG deckbuilding I don't know what else will ever be

[@petrseghman4283]

1:39:00 KZbin is actually mad that infinite mana and Morality shift in Seths hand + Scabby G on the field might be crazy!

[@rodrigoleon1313]

so I built the sisay deck and I gotta say I haven't updated the mtggoldfish version in about 2 years the deck is slightly different now, (btw crim it has a world tree so you good)

[@saintcyan2505]

Seth could have used Morality shift to fill his graveyard for Scarab God, but I think this way is better.

[@petrsevcik5044]

I wonder if there was a way for Seth to win this way.

[@stuartsmith7139]

Man, a morality shift with all those tokens would of been pretty exciting

[@matthewnodwell4847]

I was screaming at the screen lol. with a scarab god out too.

[@mordamen]

@@matthewnodwell4847 Yup! While I enjoyed the game overall, that little bit was always sitting on the back of my mind. Really wish Seth would have seen that line

[@dustintucker1501]

This was one of the most fun episodes in a long time, because even more than usual, everyone wanted to see everyone's deck do its thing, and everyone chose really sweet decks. There's never a bad episode of commander clash, but this one was still on another level.

[@nikomcpherson8394]

Except Phil. No one wanted to see Phil do his thing.

[@natejablonski]

Are we sure that's not Tomer playing the Superfriends deck? The puns are rocky, but I appreciate the sediment.

[@thatepicwizardguy]

"Hi I'm Saffron Olive prolly better known as Seth" There we go. Now it makes more sense to me. ZERO complaints about the Obliterate play. That was fucking awesome lol sweet way to win

[@peterklein3354]

Donovan Bane, hahhaaha, love it. And cheers to the deck-builder of that russian-roulette-deck, love that too.

[@emilypearl3510]

Richard is talking a lot of talk for someone who took the challenge to build reaper king with no changlings then added a bunch of changlings

[@ADVBCAT]

As a connoisseur of fine MLD, that was a great Obliterate, Crim. Go watch Tomer's Mono White Spellslinger video if you want to see me Jokulhaups him ;)

[@americanmaniac8836]

This was such a fun episode. Great deck submissions! EDH at its absolute finest

[@NickPein]

New Year's came, and Joshua G. went ahead to 3022

[@NotoriouslyADD]

By our powers combined, this is Richards' boardstate!

[@McArRuIzO]

Lol. The lone Skyswallower at the end. The cheese truly stands alone.

[@nathanjohnson5088]

The Russian roulette deck was so fun! Y'all should settle on a universal list that you like and then all four play it!

[@VonBearsTube]

1:38:29 I was really hoping for Phil to Noxious Revival Seth's Time Wipe back on top of his deck with the Yennett trigger just to troll him.

[@BrewersKitchen]

Oh wow yeah, that would have been a good one xD

[@discobiscuits4251]

damn sounds like joshua G should get a job at MTG Goldfish , two decks out of all the submissions is pretty nuts

[@froggystrap1232]

Russian Roulette was so goood !!!!

[@damnjekyll]

Commander Sphere is definitely better than a Darksteel Ingot 😅 At a certain point you just dont need a single mana thts only benefit is it cant be destroyed 😂😂

[@bernabes8424]

Are Crim and Phil getting canceled/fired for changing viewer submitted decks? Also shoutout to Joshua G!

[@jesusmunoz6372]

The smash intro is so good.

[@matthewh3475]

the trigger for the sphinx goes off at the post-combat main phase but the actual beginning comes into place “after this phase” referring to the beginning of the endstep

[@DarkusMagus]

Definitely one of the most fun episodes of commander clash. All the decks were neat but the roulette deck was hilarious.

[@Crunchatize_Me_Senpai]

Holy crap, Phil sort of predicted the surveil errata at ~31:30

[@sanjurojelze7431]

Phil and Crim are my favorite characters on the Clashing show.

[@blueeyedenvy9715]

Currently screaming at Seth to use morality shift! About 20mins to go, hope he gets the message lol

[@PalPlays]

Ich-Tekik, Salvage Splicer/Toggo, Goblin Weaponsmith is a neat foundation for Golem Tribal. Get on it Richard!

[@Spidey_Swings]

I would like to be Joshua G's friend please

[@mileskelley8662]

I cried with joy when I saw Exodia!

[@Kryptnyt]

Ah, yes, Yennet, the "Hey look, it's Ulamog!" sphinx.

[@jamescooley5241]

Can't wait for the quartet next week boys!

[@salamanteri_]

Seth could've Morality Shifted on the crazy Scarab God turn and get every creature in his deck into his graveyard.

[@anthonylewis6656]

From the Crim obliterate to the Seth and Richard team up A+ content although I do wonder if there was a way to Scarab God kill with the black spell in Seth's hand

[@josephhawkins7974]

Crim obliterating the board was excellent!!!

[@chrisanderson5048]

1:45:51, can Richard not equip because of grieves? Are those attached to his angel?

[@Ih8appls]

Exactly. No MODO bug

[@nuclearkumquat]

It looked like the greaves were on Yevette still.

[@lokidragon8725]

I wonder if you could build an everyone plays Russian roulette deck with some of the weird exchange permanents at random cards without going too heavy into chaos themes. Like a esper or grixis Zedruu style deck? Hmm Now I want to do some brewing...

[@OGTahoe3]

Chandra acolyte of flame also works in the combo. I use it in historic

[@soludsnak]

I have no idea what the purpose of casting Ebon Drake is beyond fealty to the Russian Roulette theme. He could have just left the mana open and kept the 15ish life lost.

[@isaacmjelmaspro]

This week's episode was just fantastic

[@ankhi3585]

Just realized that Teysa lost quite a bit as a superfriends card with the damage redirection change. Before that you'd have to attack the player, lose a creature and give the opponent a chumper to damage their planeswalker.

[@Skywarp2099]

Coalition Relic is from Future Sight, btw.

[@liuyang2928]

i see now. that is amazing

[@SrPacoTaco]

You thought the 5-0 split was big brain questionable decision making? Well the gang sure has a new one for you! Loved this episode

[@andrewsparkes6275]

Re: Sphinx of the Second Sun - "At the beginning of your postcombat main phase [this trigger goes on the stack and resolves to give you this effect:], there is an additional beginning phase AFTER this [postcombat main] phase." i.e. You get the additional beginning phase after your postcombat main phase, between the postcombat main phase and the end step. It's basically a Wilderness Reclamation that draws you a card and re-triggers your "at the beginning of your upkeep" abilities. ...Also Teferi doesn't shut down Codie, as Codie doesn't cast the 'cascaded' spell as part of resolution of the delayed trigger that happens when you cast the spell that sets it off: You are free to cast it at any point that turn, so can cast it at sorcery speed whenever you want.

[@aurorafinem]

SETH you could have morality shifted to put your library in your graveyard and make even more scarab god tokens for all the broken stuff
