Sevinne vs Stitcher Geralf vs Savra vs Sylvia | Korvath EDH / CMDR game

Early Void Winnower: yikes Whiffing on see the unwritten: YIKES

[@c4_murloc782]

Lol "Sometimes a cephalid gets weird about his gloves"

[@theJules08]

That’s an interesting looking Sol Ring at 4:26

[@dannyzep92]

That combo finish was wild and I didn't know that you could do that

[@nyancat9456]

Yeah, its weird to think of equipment as targeting the creature you put it on. But its also why you can't equip stuff to creatures with lightning greaves or other sources of shroud

[@dannyzep92]

@@nyancat9456 and now that I'm thinking about it I remember seeing an old janky combo from some deck as a kid that did this for infinite life gain Edit: it's weird that it can do this and it's not even intuitive

[@Omnicrom]

A Cephalid Breakfast combo! Wow that takes me back.

[@maggotentertainment74]

Funny how it's often the player that's left alone due to minimal interaction that steals the game in the end

[@hafusan]

funny yet also a little upsetting!

[@Keos027]

Generally a good strategy tbh. If you don't attract the attention, people won't focus on you, even sometimes forget about you. I often play big scary commanders/tribes, Maelstrom wanderer, Lathliss, The Ur Dragon, so people know what to expect and I,m often the first people use their resources on and then someone else wins because people already used their resources. I should be that player more. But I like big beefy creatures.

[@alexchen2519]

That's generally how I play my Azami control deck. I usually don't develop my board at all beyond mana rocks and Azami,and people ignore me until I have 10 open blue, a grip of countermagic, and the counterbalance lock. ...Unfortunately it only works once.

[@TheSPARTANusm]

Yep. I play Urza, (a thopter/copy creature build mind you ) and I get targeted just because of who I’m using, which is understandable. But it does get lame when you’re targeted for what you COULD do rather than what you ARE doing. It was a nice win from behind.

[@danielriggins1381]

At 4:25 Ben plays a Sol Ring but the visual is Thran Dynamo. Another great vid!

[@crovax1375]

It would be neat if spotting that was part of a treasure hunt of some kind

[@PhazonOmega]

Misha tutored for those gloves, and red flags began going off in my head. That combination was amazing!

[@renato1580]

Misha casted a mystic retrieval for 3 at 2:59

[@travislannoye8244]

Nick automatically wins for having those gorgeous Islands

[@Atavistic07]

Eric made some strange decisions with when he moved his Sword of the Animist, not doing it before combat in one instance when he clearly could and then doing so before blowing it and the creature up with the Austere Command. It didn't strictly matter, but it was strange to watch. Also very interesting to learn that you can re-equip an equipment to the creature it's already equipped to over and over again. I'm curious to see what other applications that could have.

[@C00kiesAplenty]

The re-equip thing is usually used for combos with stuff that says "whenever it becomes the target of a spell or ability".

[@Thermobeatz2]

Daru Spiritualist does a similar thing where is gets +0/2 when it becomes the target of a spell or ability. Put shuko on it and sac it to Ayli, Eternal Pilgrim for infinite life.

[@C00kiesAplenty]

@@Thermobeatz2 Task Force and Angelic Protector also.

[@guisseppimelon8224]

I think that’s the weirdest win I’ve ever seen

[@MarvelOfRain]

I mean... I did not know that you can equip something on the same card but that is because most people play either Nomads en-Kor for easy tutoring (both cards are creatures so Protean Hulk can get them) or Greaves since they are generally more useful, but other than that Cephalid Breakfast is one of the oldest combos there is. It gets played a lot in cEDH. I was hoping to at least see some interesting finish involving the commander. Here is an article from 8 years ago about this kind of combo: magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/feature/cephalid-breakfast-2011-03-30 Even back then it was a blast from the past.

[@alexchen2519]

That's a pretty stock line of win in cEDH decks. The Cephalid is very common in breakfast hulk and is combo'd with the Nomads to deck themselves. I knew what was coming when the Shuko showed up and was very surprised that nobody picked up on that except Nick.

[@DummyUrD]

Sorry but the Geralf deck killing Gisa should be an instant game loss.

[@ctheos69]

That was such a weird combo, I loved it. I also really liked seeing the Sylvia + Khorvarth deck in action!

[@AffinityForCommander]

I didn't know that you could re-equip equipment to the creature that it's already equipped to! The more you know! 😄

[@BTGamenight]

As a huge fan of equips myself...this is a HUGE shock for me as well!!

[@pokeyclawz8727]

What on earth is shuko in misha’s deck for Edit: Oh. Oh. I see.

[@thelocustgod9098]

Also I’m seriously impressed with that combo for Sevinne. My Sevinne deck is more centered around copying spells, winning with infinite mana into an X burn spell, but this might change my mind and my deck a bit.

[@kingstonchartier4738]

These decks are incredibly unique and awesome. Always refreshing to see decks like these!

[@MattMooresEyebrows]

Everything looks so crisp this game! Excellent work

[@HugoPCarvalho]

Always happy to see more Savra :D

[@daedalin2281]

Whoa, Cephalid Breakfast. Haven't seen that in ages.

[@captainnermy5608]

I’ve been wanting to build Sevinne but wasn’t sure what to use as a wincon. Thanks Misha for the inspiration!

[@ss-tl1ic]

Misha went unchecked THE ENTIRE GAME! As soon as I noticed I knew it was a wrap

[@adamrawn2063]

"Ben plays Mikaeus, a combo piece he insists he doesn't abuse"

[@fredforshort]

I did NOT expect Sévinne labman. Wow. Kind of impressed. I built mine more like a control-then-copy-6-banefires spellslinger nonsense deck.

[@naser3000x]

so why was sevinne the commander? his effect only worked like once

[@thelunchlady8276]

Hell yea! Ron Spencer "Squirrels vs. Wolf" mat. I got the same one. See you got some class at the table! Edit: Nice win, Misha!

[@PaulGaither]

Cephalid Sage is part of an old Extended combo and deck titled "Cephalid Breakfast."

[@fiddlestyxify]

These are cool commanders to see in action.

[@mugiwaralee9592]

Wow that win was hilarious. I love the way you described it too. "A cephalid gets weird about his gloves." This is a mad lab combo I actually didn't hate.

[@michaelyamat541]

New to this channel but love what you guys are doing 👌🏼

[@myinternetmovie]

Cool game - yes please get the list from Misha !

[@hxcnoel]

I guess only old men like me know about Cephalid Breakfast. Shuko in a blue deck sends shivers down my spine

[@seasnek7024]

Again love seeing eldrazi themed decks in edh. Thanks Nick

[@ronniewells5231]

Definitely didn't know about that equipment ruling. That is useful information so glad I watched this game. Pretty awesome win con.

[@MTGMuddstah]

I know, right? Misha was super patient with us since like the whole table didn't think she could. Big thanks to her for showing us the error of our ways!

[@crovax1375]

Cephelid Illusionist has been a sleeper in my collection for about a decade. He's certainly a sweet little card!

[@angeltoink]

^I second the Sylvia|Khorvat list. Thank you and more games

[@alphonse2234]

3:00 - Mystic retrieval cost four from hand unless I am missing something.

[@MTGMuddstah]

You're right! I think it was an oversight due to nervousness. Misha could have cast it the following turn either way.

[@alphonse2234]

Very true. Didn’t make any difference in the game. Just something that I noticed.

[@Aeonsmagicks]

Keeps ramping with a sol ring...*shows thran dynamo* was confused for a second since the void winnower is out.

[@ML7WL]

Kinda triggering how the table ignored one player that almost played alone and won.

[@apock2474]

Good on you Misha! Definitely abusing the fact that the precon for Jeskai just will not perish, going combo is the best way to go. For real though. People would switch to Elsha, but with Sevinne, Pristine Angel, pristine sky wise, ghostly prison, and 2 fog effects, with a built in way to loop one of them, my first game ended because I figured I had no way to win and we wanted to start another game. Opponent was on an arbitrary life total. Not infinite, but we stopped counting after the combo of Rhys, Trostani, seedborn muse, and a board of tokens got him over 600.

[@Quroe_]

Wow! That Shuko play is amazing!

[@StephenDakota]

Hahahahaha she told everyone "hold my brew"

[@ElucidYT]

I've always wanted to build a Sylvia x Korvath deck but they're Boros and I could never make them work well. I'm only mid way into the episode while commenting but I'm pretty impressed and happy to see Eric's deck. Takes a lot from me to give respect to someone named Eric (bad experience with ex best friend)

[@ElucidYT]

Why did she include Shuko in her deck? Cool art but I'm kinda lost. Maybe a pet card of hers? If anyone has an answer, I'm all ears. Edit: ***INCOMING SPOILERS*** (hadn't finished the episode before commenting the earlier comment) Oh wow that was actually a really really cool combo. Did not expect that, especially from Sevinne. That has to be the only time I've ever been okay watching someone win with Lab Maniac.

[@09Dragonite]

Well, shit. I did not see that play coming at all, and I was pleasantly surprised by Misha's win at the end there. Nice game!

[@pokefantrent2065]

At about 8:10 savra never died that requires going to the grave

[@categorygrp]

Muddstah why you lie to us

[@ivepesusic8792]

when you see shuko in edh that could mean only 2 things.... 1. that player is playing sram so its another way to draw more cards 2. he is going to combo off

[@RudahReis]

I would like to know Misha's decklist

[@ChromeCrown]

+1000

[@Foofoothegoon]

4:34 - That Vandal has an even CMC and shouldn't have been able to block. Minor thing though, really.

[@Apkooi1]

What a savory selection of sweet spellslingers to stomp through this game

[@jsobchak]

Really love this layout!

[@Cyberium]

Darn, I was hoping to see a Sylvia deck list.

[@DasJarHead]

Still don’t see Misha’s deck in the description. ☹️

[@Zekparsh]

Yay finally some Sevinne.

[@pvoss07]

hmmm think it's worth running a cephalid illusionist in a Kenrith deck as well?

[@executor45]

Always love your videos mtgmuddstah! BTW, never stop calling it The sword of the Anime. :)

[@missingone9185]

Where the fuck did that combo on Misha's side fucking come from?!?! That was amazingly sneaky, I love it!

[@Vervos]

2:25 had to rewind to see that he must have used the 2 new islands to cast that sky diamond

[@addambarcelos]

didn't know about that equip rule, pretty interesting

[@viniciustalita9383]

Can you please add a link to the decklist? Your videos are the best, keep up the good work!

[@kingfuzzy2]

The sevinne and boros decks wer really unique and cool

[@ivorymantis1026]

Here comes Misha out of literally nowhere.

[@thelocustgod9098]

Death triggers from Savra around 8:27 wouldn’t happen if he put Savra in the command zone, correct?

[@MTGMuddstah]

Savra only cares that something is sacrificed, not that it dies.

[@thelocustgod9098]

MTG Muddstah Ah okay that makes sense. Thanks.

[@slugmtg1937]

What a weird combo, definitely something I have never seen before. It came out of nowhere, and I'd say it's a successful game if everyone learned something new!

[@Alino-]

Yeah, was nice too cause by that point the game was looking like one that may've ended up being VERY grindy.

[@stackingdamage7340]

2:57 Misha plays Mystic Retrieval from hand for three? After screwing up with Prairie Stream? Shameful.... Nice Cephalid Breakfast though. Good on for Ben bringing Savra to the table, always rooting for her.

[@rachelspendlove4042]

Shameful is a weird word to use, but I thought that was weird too

[@FriendlyNewt]

Come to Toronto and play at A & C, I have a sweet Medomai deck I'd love to have on the show! Also I do finger puppets (ok not really).

[@kisame877]

4:34 he blocked with an even cmc creature with winnower out

[@whatsinadeadname]

What I learned was that equipment doesn't have a means to unequip besides removal from the field and paying for a new target. Like the copy rule, the effect only does what it says, nothing more.

[@Ray_XII]

This is the rule on equipments: 702.6a Equip is an activated ability of Equipment cards. “Equip [cost]” means “[Cost]: Attach this permanent to target creature you control. Activate this ability only any time you could cast a sorcery.” There's no "the target creature cannot be the same one equipped" or "it has to be another creature". The equipment never becomes unattached, but it does the effect of the equip ability, then activating effects like "when this creature becomes target of a spell or ability". You were half right, it does not unequip per se.

[@eldritchbearproductions415]

Where can I get some of those islands nick is using those are nice

[@stevoyah]

that was an out of the blue combo. BUT totally legit.

[@marceloquejinho]

Well It was actually very blue... LabMan... You know........

[@marceloquejinho]

@Varler good point!!

[@XchucksteakX]

I tried commander for the first time about a week ago at my shop, and i enjoyed it but there were a couple people that had/used some pretty (what seems to me at least) competitive decks that walked away with the game basically. Am i forced to also build a deck like that that costs a great deal of money? Or is it still possible to make a deck under a budget. I don't expect to destroy everyone but i don't want to feel completely over run every game. ty in advance for any replies :D

[@jlbrooks74]

You can make some very strong decks on a budget. Check out Commander's Quarters on KZbin for some great tips and deck techs for cheap

[@Seltaeb_]

Look in to a channel called "commanders quarters" he builds relatively high power decks for under $50, shipping included. I personally am using an upgraded version of his gitrog build and love it. Also worth noting, you can almost always build a really high power deck for under $150, most often under $100. I'm not sure what your budget is, but food for thought.

[@Seltaeb_]

Also, welcome to the world of EDH!

[@ronniewells5231]

With some creative deckbuilding you can make some pretty powerful decks. Not everything needs to be a $1000+ deck.

[@DeltaFiend]

You can easily make a focused deck under a budget, I happen to be the budget player at my LGS and while I don't win too often I get to go off in some spectacular ways a lot of the time. If you want some ideas or guidance for making decks on a budget I recommend looking up Commander's Quarters. They have a ton of content for those on a tighter budget. (I do hope its alright to plug another channel in here...)

[@VzDeath]

Why didn't Ben sac mikaeus to the high market?

[@stevenguitink5947]

Ben's Sol Ring looked a lot like a Thran Dynamo XD

[@Ceracio]

Shuko. Hmmm, that's a strange card to tutor, it must be part of some weird combo I don't know. Well the other guys at the table don't seem worried, so maybe it's just a "weird flex, but ok" moment. *10 minutes later* What the hell just happened? Is this cEDH? Where am I? What's going on? EDIT : Also that Sylvia/Khorvath deck was a joy to watch!

That was a surprise win

[@altromonte15]

You said the self-equipping thing wouldn't work with lightning greaves, why is that? Wouldn't it work the same way?

Typicaly the game i would be "ok, this combo works, we saw it, never do it again, thk" I'm happy nobody in my playgroup use the "maniac win". It's so uninteresting and "i don't care what you gonna do, i'm playing alone". But we like weird wins. Last month, i won with commander damages with my gonti deck against a mono-white angel. 11 attack phases. Epic win. Will stay in our memories ^^
