Starting with S! Sethron vs Sephara vs Satoru vs Aesi EDH / CMDR game play

[@WiiTara]

Getting tempted by tempt with discovery while the player playing it will draw three cards, get 3 life and a 4/4 beast PER LAND seems like a terrible idea Oo

[@Googleflax]

Especially considering they each just got lands that don't help them (Raph got the Eldraine land that puts a +1/+1 counter on a creature and Matt just got a dual land) PLUS they didn't even use the mana on their next turn, so it's not like they took the offer because they were 1 mana off from winning or something.

[@phgtxxx5028]

Definitely was a bad move

[@categorygrp]

Yeah, sometimes the players on this channel are dumb as rocks.

[@ConstanceMists]

I used to play Aesi landfall but i took that deck apart so quick after only a few games it was so disgusting. Landfall=draw 1 is busted as fuck smh

[@calebbrown1068]

@@ConstanceMists landfall in general lmao, snoozer of an archetype

[@scaevola]

There was so little interaction this game until the very end, so it’s surprising New Shane lost with that massive engine going

[@smalldiabetes]

Dude literally drew 20+ cards that turn,made an uncountable amount of mana, and still couldn’t get rid of a flier.

[@Kazz1187]

Checks out haha

[@puthyx]

I don't play a lot of EDH, but I do watch a lot. It was very obviously early on the blue/green player was going off and was way ahead of everyone, why didn't everyone attack him? Is it "mean" to jump on the guy that is obviously going off? The second he set up that draw 20 card turn I don't know why people were doing split attacks.

[@julian2883]

@@puthyx not against simic (blue/green). An unchecked simic board can very quickly get out of control

[@SShurricane96]

Anytime I see a simic landfall deck I’m pretty much focusing everything on taking them out as fast as possible before they simic landfall

[@rrrrjjjj3201]

I get jumped all the time with my aesi deck. Pretty hard to lay low with 15 lands and 20 cards in hand

[@zerowolf0006]

Minotaurs we’re my favorite tribe when I got into Magic during the Theros Block and when they made Sethron from Jumpstart I immediately made the Minotaur Tribal Commander deck I always wanted to make

[@faerie7dragon]

Happy Ending.

[@kasualh]

100% here for the mono-white flyers deck winning at table with higher power level decks including Simic landfall doing usual busted Simic landfall stuff. Bravo, Raph 👏🏽

[@gibbysg8143]

Why was everyone swinging into the Minotaur deck when the simic deck is sitting over there drawing and putting a million lands in play??? 🤔

[@Threadoflength]

Could of been political reasons that we are not privy to.

[@quinoacowboy]

I was surprised too. seemed really short-sighted, considering the *gestures at the massive simic board state*. my only guess is that he had all of those minotaur buffing creatures in his hand that he could replay but surely he didn't have enough mana to play them all and deal lethal damage.

[@Codence_B]

My Sethron deck can kill a table out of nowhere. If he had better attacks, he could've killed everyone the turn he cast Deathbellow Warcry.

[@Sgt_Bacon189]

This is something that bothers me so much about this channel, one player with minor threats getting absolutely smashed while there is an obvious threat at the table. There are plenty of other games, where one player just absolutely smashed everyone because everyone was busy attacking a seemingly "strong" player.

[@scottricks1676]

Thought the same thing 😂

[@DarkSwan01]

4 flying creatures and 1 white mana is the alternate cost for Sephara. I know it is a minor thing but just mentioning it.

[@d-manz3752]

Always fun to see sethron, my first MTG deck that I played was my friends minotaur deck

[@shaswass]

Maaaaaaan New shayne learned to Kill a dude that have Commander damage above his head this day

[@Onattamato]

The last Simic commanders that I've been intrigued by, and have yet to build, are Lonis and Slogurk. I feel like Gogurt could be an interesting version of lands, where you want them going in and out of the graveyard more than landfall.

[@Vektor480]

I built my slogurk as hyper selfmill, with the intention of protecting Slogurk and winning with commander damage. He gets counters whenever lands go to the graveyard from anywhere, so milling lands makes it grow really quickly. Together with his built-in trample and ability to dodge removal while recovering lands makes it a rather solid deck. It's one of my favorite decks right now

[@kanvaros4451]

I was rooting for our big beefy bovine bois ! You’ll gettem next time Dom ! He could deal a ton of damage in 1 turn

[@marius_burger]

I haven't seen a Satoru run consistently or well for the most of it. Gonna def pull mine apart and just build Jodah

[@C0medySeniorz]

I thought tempt with discovery alone was something you should never take the land. but when they get even more benefit from it? can we stop being temped?

[@nigelng325]

I think once again the card advantage ability of satoru is forgotten. Once per turn when you use ninjutsu you get to look at the top 3 cards keeping 1 and placing the rest at the bottom of your library. Merfiend leoge trigger was forgotten as well, as it untaps all creatures you control at the beginning of each upkeep, kinda like seedborne muse.

[@matthewbates5918]

Yea this was my first time playing the deck

[@justinisorange]

Hey, I know mtg rules are super complicated, but due to a new ruling aesi does not, in fact, start with s any longer

[@blackmountain1983]

Minotaur tokens should have been created from Deathbellow Warcry.

[@carmagero2]

Never clicked on a video this fast

[@OmegaMTG]

Good game. We all miss triggers. I've been running an Aesi deck of one kind or another since it came out and I still miss triggers every once in a while.

[@Cookiemunster779]

Why did Dom get hardcore targeted by the others?

[@TH3L3M0N]

Ralph played very well. I was very surprised Aesi couldn't close out the game

[@Threadoflength]

A lot of simic players are so focused on doing their value that they forget to win the game

[@jacobkristos1214]

Slight misplay on the Tempt With Discovery, but the lands don't come in tapped, I don't know if that would have changed the ultimate outcome of the game, but it makes getting tempted even less worthwhile for the opponents, normally.

[@ivernedit]

Picked up a mako playmat after seeing dom use it so many times

[@AidanWR]

It's always interesting seeing other people's decks. I also made a Sephara deck on a 50 dollar budget, but it's more focused on going wide with angels than killing with commander damage. Although, it has since been upgraded a few times whenever I pull a good flying creature to put in the deck

[@TLG1255]

I built a Lonis deck that’s super fun!!! Agreed about most semic commanders though

[@bradesmuyrad]

Pretty cool there is a commander for Sethron Olive now.

[@outbreakprime6246]

I love Sethron! Wishing my Moo Boi good luck!

[@alexstoltz1520]

I run a pure sea creature tribal deck around Aesi and it just ramps and drops ridiculous, fat serpents, krakens, and leviathans. Simic can be a lot of fun if you don’t try to min-max!

[@I3usT3r]

How can dom play black cards when his commander is only red

[@gaddywalls378]

This was so cool man

[@FlashyLily]

that tempt was def a bad idea for the others that just gave aesi a lot more gas

[@The_Davester]

well clearly it worked out in their favor lol

[@afspeellijstnaruto]

Hahaha i gave up on my Sephara deck LONG TIME ago. It used little flyers with some angels as the 2nd theme. But my god that ramp was awefull. I turned it into a Selesnya deck (angel tribal) with Karametra at the helm of it. At least every angel came with a land and made the 2nd angel easier to cast :p.

[@rrrrjjjj3201]

Was aesi not on the battlefield when he casted splendid reclamation? Hate to think someone would miss out on drawing 11 cards

[@johnjohnson-wg7jv]

Yeah, Lonis is the only Simic commander I'm going to build. She seems like a lot of fun.

[@jinshootingstar]

Threat assessment in this table was... bad, to say the least.

[@jacquesleroux3542]

What is New Shane's playmat name? It looks dope!

[@darrylgreen6132]

It's hard to convince my friends not to be tempted with discovery when yall do stuff like this.... they the get lands too every time

But lands!

[@frontkeep]

Not that would change the results i guess but Raph could not swing the pegasus alone in that last attack… cos it cant attack or block alone

He didn't, he also swung with the rat token provided by Tribute to Horobi.

[@drizzt12341]

Aww man, Simic is so much fun if you can find the right Commander for it. I’ve been running Ezuri, Claw of Progress Good Stuff and the amount of options you have and value you get is incredible. Even if you aren’t playing extra lands :D

[@gbasso666]

I have Sephara. She can be really good against other creature decks, due to infinite blocking potential and boardwipe abuse.

@@SamuraiDomurai Oh, thank you so much !

[@Insharai]

I always like the idea of simic xD definitely my favorite color identity, but tatyova/aesi is a good way to get hated out of a table lol... I had a tatyova deck that was quite literally designed to do nothing, and to set up to eventually win through helix pinnacle, but no one believes you when you say your deck does nothing with them xD (The deckbuilding idea was to make a garden of eden of sorts; I just liked the flavor of building on that).

[@matttownsend8406]

My simic deck that I wanna play but havnt yet is kodama and Sakashima and it uses moonfolk to pick the lands back up for an activated ability, it essentially does nothing until kodama combos infinite landfall triggers with the moonfolk or a bounce land with token makers. I don’t have a single play an extra land card as it’s all on kodama. Sakashima is there for redundancy as well as copying fun things opponents have. The difference imo is that the moonfolk abilities add a lot of interaction that some of the simic decks I can think of just don’t have, so shouldn’t feel too solitaire like.

[@cactuarnoob100]

Wait Aesi doesn’t start with S….
