Radha vs Meren vs Omnath vs Meren EDH / CMDR game play for Magic: The Gathering

[@arcynical8053]

I'm loving this soap opera about the intro sequence haha

[@MTGMuddstah]

Same, haha!

[@mtgsus]

So true, everytime I’m wondering what kind of intro we get 😅

[@TheMNZGrandeRio]

He should just change it every video and do whatever he feels like. :v

[@AffinityForCommander]

"Commander tested, goblin approved!" I'm loving these into sequences!

[@TheBlackdragon936]

Affinity For Commander much better that the creepy intro before.

[@MTGMuddstah]

*For those interested, the guest from today's intro was PJ from Commander Replay ( **kzbin.info/door/rudMyVbtvyVyadYddhousAvideos?disable_polymer=1** )*

[@nerothejokeemperor9563]

It doesn't seem to work

[@retropulpo]

I really thing that changing the opening sequence audio every two weeks is the way to go. Each one has been funnier than the last one.

[@DarkEinherjar]

MY BODY WASN'T READY FOR THAT INTRO

[@Fernando-fh2um]

The Westvale Abbey has a black identity!

[@MTGMuddstah]

Quite right! I only caught it while scripting the video. Thankfully it didn't break the game haha. I told Stephan about it and he's since changed it.

[@Fernando-fh2um]

Still it's a good tech card in a Lord Windgrace deck with Omnath

[@elementoy1360]

I saw that too!! I only noticed because I was told I couldn't run it in my omnath deck. R.I.P. the dream

[@jthrone7768]

I’m a simple man, I hear PJ, I like the video.

[@CommanderReplay]

I approve of this logic. So does the goblin.

[@L3TL]

jesus that intro

[@m.r.r.2636]

I can properly appreciate that intro

[@AGuy-s5v]

I think "Goblin tested, bystander approved" would make for a more flavorful intro. I'll leave what's subtle about it to you.

[@jysonberrington3131]

Just a few minor nitpicks, Omnaths trigger only does 3 damage, not 5. At one point Stephans Meran was not on the field but you still gave him an experience counter, none of this mattered in the end though.

[@demonicgrub1025]

I think you missed the where ancients tread. Whenever a big creature entered under his control the enchantment pings for 5.

[@owenwells7692]

no there was a very early trigger of it at just over the five minute mark, someone down thread a bit pointed it out, where they said it dealt five instead of three. Where Ancients Tread didnt come in until the genesis wave went off.

[@ModelHX]

You found it. You found the best intro.

[@Jaketheknight1]

YES! Omnath is one of my favorite commanders. Glad to see he's returned, and in one hell of a game. Side note, I don't think Westvale Abbey can go in non-black decks due to color identity of the demon.

[@nolife874]

I played alot of omnath locus or rage and this was everything I loved about the deck. My play groups meta game shifted so I had to move to a faster deck but omnath will always have a place in my heart

[@dakotaschmitt4943]

I was one of the people that complained about the first intro, but all of the hilarity that has spawned from it has been well worth it.

[@geekmp3]

A Genesis Wave for 10 and there's no blue players... yeah that game went FAST.

[@_somerandomguyontheinternet_]

0:00 OMG KEEP THAT INTRO!!!

[@cpudraner]

I think a changing intro is just your gimmick now MTG Mudstah

[@MTGMuddstah]

Mebbe

[@darkareos]

The love of my life! Omnath! This deck was the first that i build from nothing, put so much time and money in it, ( i mean like no predeck or something) and i love what it can do! My favorite combo with it : With Omnath on board. add Amulet of Vigor + Perilous forays = "Infinitish" Elemental and death trigger, add Valakut and its a mass destruction!

[@Thomeyis]

Kevin dumped more cash onto the table in his first turn than most of my decks are worth

[@NMS127]

That looked like a fun game, for three players anyway. Muddstah, you can't keep hands with no action like that when playing a more aggressive deck (or at all, really, unless your commander is very powerful by itself). Kevin had a potentially faster opening: T1: Wooded Foothills, crack, Mana Vault. T2: Skyshroud Claim. Then if he's drawn an untapped land, Crucible of Worlds. Otherwise, Myriad Landscape. T3: Now if he's drawn an untapped land or played Crucible, Nissa, Vital Force. Otherwise Crucible, replay Foothills. T4: Omnath or Tireless Tracker + crack Myriad Landscape or Tracker + Crucible + replay Foothills If he's lucky he ends up a turn or two ahead. (If not, he just gets some extra clues.) Maybe then he gets targeted more by the Meren players, but they went after him before each other anyway.

[@Mekmassimochannel]

OMG the new intro is SO GOOOOOD!

[@kennythereaver1]

Love the intro. 10/10 would listen to again.

[@RedruM060]

I love the video!! Thanks again for awesome gameplay! Out of curiosity, which of the new commander decks are you most excited for?

[@MTGMuddstah]

Lord Windgrace seems really neat.

[@esteele98]

Just when I thought the intro couldn’t get any better, it just did

[@asdfasdfasdf6295]

Absolutely love the videos, I was just looking for Omnath gameplay and looky there, newest video shows up!

[@unimaginative_artist]

Good ol’ Meren my first love and first Commander deck 😍😍

[@timpolson7072]

I like to imagine the goblin has a talking voice like Commander Replays, but has a squeaky laugh like the other intros.

[@chinaman8888]

Love that new intro, wonderfully corny and energetic (in the same vein as Slim Jim or Macho Man ads). Please don't change it, people can get used to this one and stop complaining.

[@superwill1238]

Now that goblin has a RADICAL voice, man!

[@jakecolvin3595]

You gotta get Jolt to do your next intro soundbite!

[@paulgoodridge2269]

No it's gablan tested Commander approved

[@canibehelped]

Best intro yet!

[@HowBoutWHYWolf]

[@Erebus_the_trustworthy]

That intro literally scared me lol. I miss the goblin laugh.

[@shawnsloss]

I like that introduction

[@jacoblemire2478]

THAT INTRO!!!! THATS THE ONE!!!!

[@cpudraner]

The old intro sounds like my response to the new one lol 10/10 Are you just changing it ever so often now? I think that would be a swell idea!

[@MTGMuddstah]

Mebbe

[@mrsilverbutton7786]

What have you thought about the Grand Warlord? I love everything about her but the past few games I've seen on your channel feel a bit lackluster. Just me or better results off camera?

[@MTGMuddstah]

She's still very much a work in progress, so I'll reserve my opinion on her for a few more games. Combat-centric decks are not really my forte, so it's been an interesting experiment outside of my comfort zone.

[@mrsilverbutton7786]

MTG Muddstah I look forward to further iterations! She looks like my kind of elf general and you've definitely been the key player in showcasing the build. Great content every week!

[@christophert.9237]

Is that Command Replay in the intro? lol

[@MTGMuddstah]

It is!

[@christophert.9237]

Another under viewed MTG channel. By far my favorite channels to watch are yours, jolt539 and commander replay.

[@Egovinco98]

@@christophert.9237 have to agree. watched a ton of all 3 already and i only started binging commander on KZbin mid july.

[@christophert.9237]

No man you sound fine!!! Your intros are fantastic.

[@tonyontilt3522]

Great intro! Big fan of Commander replay. Btw, what's with the footed wood hill?

[@89kicked]

Westvale Abby is coloc restricted as black because of the back of the card, just like Archangel Avacyn is Red/White

[@MTGMuddstah]

Yep, quite right. I only caught it during the scripting, so I couldn't say anything =( I've since let Stephan know he can't run it in the list.

[@christophert.9237]

[@MTGMuddstah]

I like this.

[@bradensteinberger549]

Best intro so far.

[@ianflannery4291]

I LOVE THAT INTRO!!!!

[@p1k4nurxp13sr]

Should David have kept the Sidisi from Puppeteer Clique, as the persist version is a new instance of the card? Also, isn't Clique exiling them on next upkeep?

[@MTGMuddstah]

Clique's steal from graveyard isn't impacted by the persist. The ability exiles at the end of turn no matter what.

[@thisisarecording]

BEST INTRO SO FAR

[@r.a.w.780]

That was some nice aggressive gameplay. And yes most Meren decks are pretty much the same. I try to steer mine different like given Meren some equipment and attacking with her straight on 😁

[@coltinyancey3671]

Westveil has a black color identity. It cannot be in omnath

[@tovolia]

This.

[@MTGMuddstah]

Yea, I only caught it after writing out the narration for this video. I told Stephan afterwards.

[@pbrown7501]

I feel like you often get mana screwed or mana flooded. Have you considered playing a commander that increases your card velocity, for example Varina?

[@whiterabbit2786]

Did Kevin miss his clue tokens at 9:45-9:50? Seems like there should have been 2 clues added.

[@alfascorpi]

I love my Meren deck. So much fun to play!

[@willemboele2079]

Omg best intro yet

[@serkankoldere]

You forgot to add the link to David's meren deck in the description

[@MTGMuddstah]

I didn't forget. He hasn't posted it yet.

[@christopherrue1773]

Elemental pun was F+..I secretly laughed.

[@DerrickJolicoeur]

The Intro is getting better! It needs some extra audio, beyond just voice, but I like it so far. The only 'problem' with it, is that what/where-ever you do your voice over for the episode should be upgraded a bit to have comparable audio quality with the intro.

[@addambarcelos]

omnath is really tense to fight without exile or bounce. great game

[@jordiehunter38]

Love the videos! Have any friends that ever run a Yisan deck? Would love to see one run in one of your videos!

[@JuanHernandez-ff3nm]

Hey Peoples of MtgMuddstah. Westvale abbey is a black card. When it comes to transform cards, both sides need to pass the color check for the commander of that deck. So Omnomnom couldn't play it.

[@MTGMuddstah]

Quite right! I only caught it while scripting the video. Thankfully it didn't break the game haha. I told Stephan about it and he's since changed it.

[@ryanburks937]

I could taste the salt radiating from this game.

[@ultiplayer1]

T1 - Kevin should have played Myriad Landscape. T2 - Kevin should have played Wooded Foothills, sacced it to get Taiga, cast Mana Vault with Myriad Landscape, then cast Skyshroud Claim, searching for Stomping Ground and Cinder Glade. T3 - Kevin should have cast Crucible of Worlds, and replayed the Wooded Foothills from his graveyard.

[@MTGMuddstah]

I suppose he could have. It wasn't his deck though, so he might not have been thinking of all the best lines of play.

[@K3rm1tFr0g]

I think PJ made the video about roughly 50% more amazing

[@HenandezTech]

gosh it's so satisfying watching Evil David lose!!!

[@Shin.Shinshi]

That intro's pretty gooood

[@Hard19Fox]

Can you link David‘s Meren Deck please. I want to compare both Meren Decks.

[@MCRWV-bk1wf]

hey, do you have Kevins decklist somewhere? edit: nevermind, found it in the description! :)

[@NICOTHATKID]

Think you missed the draw two off of skull clamp at 8:48

[@swolegolisopod7340]

When a Commander dies, you can let it die and go to the graveyard, or you can use a replacement effect to move it to the command zone. If you decide to move it to the cz, then it doesn't count as dying. This means it won't trigger anything like skullclamp, blood artist, grave pact, etc.

[@joshrobinson2409]

I only have one 6 drop in my meren deck and its massacre wurm I got the awsome alternate art version of it I also noticed a stinkweed imp I only have golgari thug life from the loam and golgari grave troll for dredge the only thing about dredge that annoys me is that its a really random mechanic as in you dont really have control on what hits the yard

[@MrManukenchin]

I would like to built a good meren deck, I need some staples cards for that deck is very fun to play

[@pklemon7856]

That intro was unexpected

[@CodenameJD]

Looked like Omnath's Elemental dying trigger only went off once, on himself, and he dealt 5 damage - that trigger only does 3, though.

[@mattky6361]

Does reverberate work on the genesis wave so you can target yourself? As I understood it, you can only change the target if the spell itself targets. So, while you can copy it, Kevin would just get two triggers. I'm not sure if that is correct, but that is how I understood it.

[@DarkEinherjar]

No, the controller of the copy is the one who gets its effects. If a spell from someone else says "you gain 20 life", for example, and you copy it, YOU, as the controller of the copy, will gain 20 life.

[@MTGMuddstah]

My understanding is that the wording on Genesis Wave is "You" so the copy that I create is for my library.

[@DarkEinherjar]

Yes, the "you" always refers to the controller of the spell, and you control the copy created by Reverberate.
