My Murders at Karlov Manor Predictions

[@venetianjack1348]

I can only speak as a casual viewer: - I like this video format, even though I did find your channel due to my love of lore. - Have you thought of longer form lore videos? - As for this style, I say keep it up as I do like hearing your thoughts and theories of a coming storyline and would enjoy seeing these types of videos before you delve into the released lore!

[@AetherHub]

Thanks for your input! I do some much longer stuff from time to time, but most of my videos are roughly 15-20 minutes in length

[@polyommata]

also!! i really like this format for you talking about your ideas! the info was good and engaging and it would be really fun to have more of these between story releases. i think your lighting coule be improved and some more time in your script writing would do wonders to reaply solidify this as a strong part of your channel! lots of love! ❤❤❤

[@AetherHub]

Great and very helpful criticisms, thank you! I'm not a very visually tech savvy guy, but I'm already working to improve my lighting!

[@pelusoft]

I like this format for talks regarding especulation, theories and opinion. For lore videos i think having an script is best.

[@AetherHub]

100% these will just me talking about MY thoughts / speculations in a free form style. I'll still script out actual informative lore videos :)

[@cwill1090]

I could see them using each guild to interact with clues differently, using that to define the differences of the guilds for this set.

[@TheSushiandme]

Can't wait to get Scobby Doo, Nancy Drew, the Hardy Boys, and Sherlock Holmes secret lair :)

[@TheyCallMeDio]

Among Us secret lair

[@Avvy89]

Were already getting a Scooby Doo shout out in one of the preview cards, Meddling Youths

[@crawdaddy1234]

It’s been years since I heard anyone reference the Hardy Boys.

[@polyommata]

i def think theres going to be some Dimir shapeshifting plot twist, but i also am curious whether Dimir and Rakdos presence whill be red herrings and Oko might end up having kind of plot twist since his feathers are showing up

[@b2e297]

I think the guild im most interested in seeing an update on is the golgari. They’re already somewhat marginalized in ravnican society and after being largely converted and led by vraska during MOM I’m intrigued to see where they stand socially this set

[@Case2_0]

If there isn’t a legendary detective who has a gigantic mustache, I’m going to be very disappointed. Hercule Poirot needs a good reference. They already failed by not having a Bonnie and Clyde partners with set of cards back in Capenna

[@AetherHub]

Huge miss you’re right. We need a true detective.

[@Phe0nix1986]

Great to actually see you :)

[@AjaniGoldmaneFFXIV]

I really like your content, in podcast form. I dont mind a style like this because it gives me something to listen to while im doing something else so i dont mind!

[@TheSushiandme]

Those posters on the walls are amazing. i want Gideon and Nissa.

[@AetherHub]

Thank you. I love them

[@MagusFlorren]

I support your decision to record yourself talking and sharing thoughts like this! Handsome guy! 😌🎉

[@AetherHub]

Why, thank you so much 😊

[@richardwilliams8008]

I just ordered the Black Lotus Coin as a X-mas gift to myself, thanks for the reminder!

[@AetherHub]

Thanks for using my code! 😃

[@lenski8306]

Ho my lore ! Who is that handsome guy ? My guess about the culprit will be Aurelia. As a red/wite, basically a paladin, she looks like the kind of character who is just waiting for an excuse to destroy the rakdos cult. Launching an assassination (according to one of the story card) against herself to have an excuse to look legitimate at attacking is the kind of thing we could expect from Red. We should not forget that while white i seen as the "good" color, white can become tyrannical. Potentially with the help of the selesnayan character. It's convenient from him to remind everybody that the Dimir guild is still here and well, Black - Red like Rakdos on a color pie level sound like the natural ennemy of a Red- white - green alliance. (On my opinion, House Dimir or Rakdos look too obvious as suspects in a detective like story) About the cards, i hope Amalia Aguirre will have something like "when you reveal a land exploring, create a clue token" representing her mapping the multiverse or something like this. And for Kellan after having him be Boros and then Selesnaya, in think he will be Azorius and in the next set will be Orzhov or full white.

[@juanantoniojimenez927]

Yeah I don't know. I think if someone from the Dimir guild would have killed somebody than even the act itself would have been a mystery. I mean not even a corpse would have been easily found (They can still be involved somehow). And Etrata seems to be helping the detectives, too. Saving their life multiple times. For Rakdos the act missed to much "style". I guess we need to wait and see who was killed and how the killing was done first. Gruul does have motives, too. The set isn't a guild set. I believe they already said that only 7 cards would have the special ravnica city guild frame. Only 6 Guild leaders +1 non-guild leader. We already know that Aurelia and Rakdos will have a card. We saw artwork for Vannifar, too. The non-guild leader with the ravnica city frame will most likely be Niv. Ral Zarek is still a planeswalker and Izzet Guildmaster as far as we know. With the "only 1 Planeswalker per set" guideline he would be automatically out because of Kaya. That leads to 3 other guilds without a guildmaster: I think Gruul and Golgari are the guilds that won't have any guild leader... Leaving one Guild which could be Dimir or Selesnya. I could see both guild leaders missing a card because they just don't make a appearance in the story. For now I think that Lazav should make a appearance just because of the mystery setting. We know that Lavinia took over the Azorius guild. To make it short the guild leader that will have representation as a card (in my opinion) will most likely be: Orzhov, Simic, Boros, Rakdos, Azorius and Dimir.

[@matthewwasser5621]

I do like this style of video. If you want, you can do more of them. The need to have a planswalker guide for this and every premier set. The lore and the world building are my favorite part of MTG. To be honest, it's the only part of MTG I like. I never got into deck building or never thought about strategy when looking at cards. What if Niv Mizzit was completed. Would he still be the living guild packet? What would happen with the living guild packed?

[@manachamber]

I liked this style of video, especially since you kept it fairly lore focused

[@AetherHub]

I may ramble about other things. But I always go back to lore lol

[@c.r.bledsoe9322]

I wouldn't be surprised if we find out tezzeret is trying to keep the guilds distracted with these murders while he goes after what he really wants

[@JordanMullen-sx6em]

Siben looks like a Pixar dad

[@AetherHub]

Never had that compliment (or insult?) before. I like (or hate?) it lmfao

[@JordanMullen-sx6em]

@@AetherHub it's a compliment lol

[@steveisbish]

This style is great

[@AetherHub]

I appreciate that :)

[@steveisbish]

@@AetherHub Ive been watching your content for years. This, Behind the curtain/almost vlog style is a great addition to your portfolio of videos. I love the difference from your normal lore videos.

[@purpleslushie]

Orzhov fan myself. I will certainly miss the guild playstyles but am excited to get more ravnica lore.

[@xternalpunk]

Nice change up! Good to add a face to a voice.

[@AetherHub]

It was fun to just rip with my thoughts!

[@infinitedaryl2267]

Can’t wait for a new Vannifar card. She’s my favourite character (other than Rakdos) but her current card is super unfun as a commander. Hopefully this one will be original and fun. I think the simic allegiance between Vannifar and Zegana is one of many red herrings that’ll be in the other plot. They’re up to something but Phyrexian oil is not something Zegana would accept. They’re probably plotting to get their hands on another guild’s property needed to rebuild the simic and will use the chaos to make their move. I think several mysteries and side plots will be unveiled as red herrings in search for the murders - including one for each of the main characters like Krenko etc. My prediction is one murder is actually not connected to the others and that murderer will get away with it and it’ll be revealed to the reader at the end of the story. That’ll probably be related to the dimir or Oko. My prediction is the main murderer is someone within the detective agency themselves.

[@samandonly2483]

I like this alternative format :)

[@zinnbelt1418]

I like it!

[@AetherHub]

Awesome thanks for the feedback!

[@zeorox4490]

If they really conclude that the murder Was done by the murder guild I Fear for mtgs creative future

[@AetherHub]

I doubt it. But yea, I share that same fear

[@DListHero]

What happen to the Golgari?

[@gabrielaganon3160]

With everyone discussing whodunnit, I think we should also talk about who's actually getting murdered (or at least getting targeted). Because of how the Izzet league handled the Phyrexian invasion - this is likely why Ral is avoiding the party - the murderer is prob targeting Tomik out of spite. I also think that Teysa might be a likely target with how much she influences Ravnica.

[@alusteratrocious5936]

You know who else has blue feathers? Azor.

[@jakebrentlinger1602]

I liked this, but would prefer the cards referenced to be larger on the screen to view

[@mega2009man]

I'm not happy Kaya of all characters kept her spark. After she's caused such an upset in balance, she needs a huge nerf. For a "ghost assassin" she doesn't kill a lot of ghosts. Sure didn't stop her from besting praetors that veterans couldn't, planeswalkers with greater experience, or a freaking god. Probably should've named her Mary Sue 🙄😒 Where's our new Vampire cartographer, by the way?

[@TheyCallMeDio]

Pls tell me Amalia didn't die. Kellan just brought her there

[@aftergood]

i know you said you think Lazav is the murder.. but i cant help but think otherwise. Lazav has acted on behalf of ravnica twice now.. he fought against bolas before the invasion and he was apart of the defense against the invasion wasnt he? they positioned him to be Ravnica first and at any cost (like batman) so he might be seen as the murder, but i wouldnt be surprised if it was a red herring.

[@adoo765]

How could you?!

[@obadijahparks]

I'm hoping for Sherlock Holmes cards with this set. Even just secret lair. NOT THE ENOLA VERSIONS.

[@marcelphillip1239]

Fuck all this, i am waiting for Bloomborrow...

[@AetherHub]

No lie. I’m excited for that plane too

[@mack-h-2019]

Hi there! You’re handsome!!!

[@AetherHub]

Why thank you ☺️

[@obadijahparks]

You, and stritctlybettermtg, combined look like Seth Rogan.

[@obadijahparks]

I still think the butler did it.

[@KingGruesome74]

Gratz :)

Coin is cool. Not $300 cool.
