[@pokeyclawz8727]

If an opponent takes control of a permanent thats already on the battlefield and then dies, it goes back to its original controller, so sun titan would stay in play. If the opponent got the sun titan from their opponent’s library or hand and was never under the control of its owner, then it would be exiled

[@user-vs7uz4ro8e]

I believe since it's been given away, the Sun Titan would end up exiled. At least this is how we do it when I play Zedruu.

[@pokeyclawz8727]

Ethan i dont remember the situation. Who owned sun titan, who controlled sun titan, and who died?

[@user-vs7uz4ro8e]

@@pokeyclawz8727 The Sun Titan was donated by the Zedruu player to another player. What I think happens is if the Sun Titan is stolen through a temporary means (i.e. stolen via Confiscate) then the card returns to the original owners control as the stealing card (in this case the Confiscate) leaves the battlefield. On the other hand, if the permanent is permanently stolen/given away, either through Zedruu, Role Reversal, that red chaos card (can't remember what it's called), etc. then the card gets exiled as the player who controls it leaves play.

[@pokeyclawz8727]

Ethan ah, gotcha. No it doesnt work like that, it all counts as a controlling effect even if it has “permanently” changed control with effects like those. If its stolen from the battlefield, it goes back to the owner. If its stolen from the library, graveyard, or hand etc it goes to exile. There are multiple rules about it, i dont remember their numbers though

[@user-vs7uz4ro8e]

@@pokeyclawz8727Thanks! I'll go through the rules about ownership and see if I can find it and inform my playgroup that I actually DO get my permanents back, thank you very much.

The new overlay is excellent. Very crisp, clean, and unobtrusive.

[@ms.sysbit5511]

Did you miss the 12 life Tomer took from Grismold? He was at 45 and you added 12 Grismold damage below but he remained at 45 total life. Btw the new overlay is very nice. Very clean and maximizes board states while tracking individual damages/infect/experience counters (assuming the latter ones) etc without interfering.

[@MTGMuddstah]

Ah darn! I must have. Sorry about that.

[@DarkEinherjar]

About the new layout: The blue needs a brighter shade, because the current one is a bit too dark with that black background. The font size for the commander/infect damage should also be bigger. Other than that, it's very good.

[@e-tier_hippo]

The new overlay is real good! You can see all the info very easily and the names of commanders is more useful than cropped pics of them. I'm curious for the next video with another new overlay to compare.

[@BlockyTG]

Love the new layout! My favorite part about it is seeing the name of the commander rather than the image, it's much clearer to me who is playing which commander this way.

[@D_A_D_]

I like how at 10:50 when he played the Sun Titan it was so blindingly bright you couldn't even tell what it was. On flavor.

[@mikemoyer8162]

[@ElusiveOtter]

Who is the Greek god in the thumbnail corner? Is this spoiled artwork from the new Theros set? 🤔

[@stevenbuck4090]

Nice video. As a long time viewer, I did prefer the visibility of the last layout. If If I forgot which commanders belonged to which player, the artwork helped me out. Also the commander damage being nice and big was also helpful. I know most people are saying it is good, but I do hope you can somehow work in these two aspects I've mentioned above. ❤

[@MTGMuddstah]

I'll see what I can do!

[@Foofoothegoon]

You were correct about the ownership of Sun Titan when CJ left the game. You always get back the permanents you own if they were originally under your own control. If an opponent actually has that permanent you own _enter the battlefield_ under their control (like with a _Bribery_ or _Marchesa, the Black Rose_ or _Xantcha, Sleeper Agent_ ), then that permanent is exiled instead when that opponent leaves the game. Edit - This question just came up on tappedout, here if it helps. tappedout.net/mtg-questions/soulherder-in-multiplayer/

Thanks for having me on! Here's my current Zedruu list: www.mtggoldfish.com/deck/1804395#paper Pyromancer's Swath is the meanest card in there. I agree about the "mean" cards, I think most of them are pretty mediocre and can even backfire, so I've never cared for Rust Golem / Jinxed Choker / etc. Swath is backbreaking though and worth the risk, though it can be quite mean! The rest of my donate targets are pretty benign, mostly used as fodder for my switcheroos. I'm happy with how it worked out this game!

[@bencaswell1956]

New layout is great. I personally found that the old one was sometimes hard to read depending on the art in the background. This one should resolve that and is future proof. Great job!

[@armoric]

The new overlay is pretty clean; it could use a bit of work on the colour choice, for the contrasts, but unless you put some kind of filter behind it you're going to be limited by the playmats anyway. By the way, what does that Emrakul one say? I couldn't make out the second picture. I'm also surprised that no more people went after Zedruu once the combo pieces had been dealt with. It's always the kind of deck that's hard to finish off so not keeping them in check early can make you miss the opportunity by one or two turns later on.

[@Matteo_the_Plague_Doctor]

Goddamn that was a fun game to watch. I have a Zedruu deck so I'm definitely looking out for that deck when I see it on your channel. That was a relatively grindy match, but a fun one to spectate nonetheless. I don't entirely like the new overlay. Its too bland. If you could do a hybrid where the text is clearer, but we still get to see some of the artwork from the commanders in there, I think it'd look cooler. Legibility is important, so if you could make the numbers and text bigger, that'd help. Not everyone watches on a PC.

[@altromonte15]

lim-dul's vault is an extremely underrated card imo, you can dig your entire library if you need. It's a 2 mana tutor but it costs a bit of life, depending on how lucky you are. And you get to scry 5.

[@darylchiu9030]

Oh. Looking forward to it then.

[@DarkEinherjar]

Here we go again... time for some rules clarification: 800.4a. When a player leaves the game, all objects (see rule 109) owned by that player leave the game, any effects which give that player control of any objects or players end, and all spells and abilities controlled by that player on the stack cease to exist. Then, if there are any objects still controlled by that player, those objects are exiled. This is not a state-based action. It happens as soon as the player leaves the game. If the player who left the game had priority at the time he or she left, priority passes to the next player in turn order who’s still in the game. It doesn't matter if it's a temporary effect like Act of Treason or Silumgar, an aura effect like Mind Control or a permanent effect like Zedruu or Blatant Thievery. The rule says ANY effects, so they ALL end, regardless of duration, conditions or who created the effect in the first place, and the object in question returns to the previous controller or the default one. If CJ had cast the Sun Titan or put it on the battlefield under his control to begin with (because of Hostage Taker or Bribery, for example), then yes, it would've been exiled, because he would be the default controller. Always remember this concept of the default controller (the player who cast the permanent or put it on the battlefield in the first place). It will help you figure out whether the permanent is exiled or returns to another player's control.

At ~07:00 did Zedruu get card and life for the token he gave away? If so I am pretty sure he should not, as he does not 'own' that token. As permanents you own are cards you start with in your deck

[@MTGGoldfishCommander]

I owned the token because I created it, not Grismold. From Grismold rulings: "2019-08-23: Each Plant token is owned by the player who created it. You don’t own them all."

[@simelot4522]

NOW, that's a sweet overlay.... 💥

[@2long2cat]

Really liking this overlay, just not a big fan of the font. I think allcaps would look a tat better.

[@DarkEinherjar]

Yes, the Sun Titan should've returned to Tomer, as he's the default controller.

[@krobzik]

Puca's Mischief is not a temporary effect, so as by rule 800.4a, Sun Titan should be exiled once its new controller leaves the game.

[@DarkEinherjar]

It doesn't matter if the effect is temporary or permanent. The rule says "ANY effects which give that player control of any objects or players end". It doesn't matter if it's temporary or not, or who is responsible for it. Sun Titan would only be exiled if CJ himself had cast it or put it on the battlefield under his control to begin with.

[@Taylors_Ghost]

800.4a When a player leaves the game, all objects (see rule 109) owned by that player leave the game and any effects which give that player control of any objects or players end. Then, if that player controlled any objects on the stack not represented by cards, those objects cease to exist. Then, if there are any objects still controlled by that player, those objects are exiled. Since pukas mischief isn't an ongoing conditional effect that gave him control of Sun Titan, it does not end when he leaves the game, and is exiled. They use bribery as an example in the rules. I might be missing something, but I'm pretty sure that Sun Titan should have been exiled.

[@DarkEinherjar]

Bribery puts the card on the battlefield under your control to begin with. That makes YOU the default controller, which is why the creature is exiled when you lose.

[@halophilicnc6473]

If a permanent is on the battlefield and then you gain control of it there is always a controlling effect that ends when you leave the game. If the card was on the stack, in the opponent's graveyard or library then there isn't. It's just a card you control but don't own. Exiled when you leave the game.

[@jackpabich763]

No Goblin Noise?

[@YetAnotherScrub]

The question of what happens to the donated Sun Titan (via Zedruu) when the player it was donated to loses is interesting. The ruling on this states: When a player leaves the game, all objects (see rule 109) owned by that player leave the game, any effects which give that player control of any objects or players end, and all spells and abilities controlled by that player on the stack cease to exist. Then, if there are any objects still controlled by that player, those objects are exiled. This is not a state-based action. It happens as soon as the player leaves the game...cont. Hence if the losing player has gained control of a card using Mind Control, when Mind Control is removed from the game, control of the stolen card will be returned. If the player used a reanimation effect to play a creature from an opponent's graveyard, that card will not be returned since there was no control change effect, and will instead be exiled (* for question below). I had thought that since Zedruu's effect doesn't have any associated permanent holding the card there in the way that Mind Control does, it would not be returned, and would thereby be exiled. As it turns out though, you were correct. The returning of permanents does not only include static abilities like Mind Control, but actually extends to any cards that have changed control. Although the control of Sun Titan is not bound to any other card on the battlefield, it does remember that it's control was changed, and that will revert when the player controlling it loses the game.

[@YetAnotherScrub]

What I am curious is the * situation. If a player uses Reanimate on an opponent's Fiend Hunter, exiling an opponent's creature with the ETB, and then that player loses, Fiend Hunter would be exiled. I suspect the opponent's creature is not returned, since Fiend Hunter's return ability needs to use the stack, and although the losing player doesn't own Fiend Hunter, the ability on the stack would be owned by them since they controlled the card as it left, and a player who has lost cannot put anything on the stack. What I really don't know is if another player has a card that says 'When a creature leaves the battlefield, gain 1 life' (I couldn't think of an example card that would trigger when an opponent's creature was exiled, so this is a hypothetical example), would they see the Fiend Hunter leave the battlefield (exiled by game mechanics) and trigger to gain 1 life?
