[@VerrouSuo]

this is not a link to the star city games draft open finals, prof. i am sorely disappointed.

[@Marcosomos]

Profesor, is the one that wins two times the one that takes the victory at the end, try to explain it that way and more people would see the logic on your gamemode.

[@highpol1ce]

@@VerrouSuo My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined

Have you guys done one on the brothers war yet?

[@benyoung8985]

These cedric and patrick episodes are my favorite episodes of this series. Love your content in general, but these are hilarious.

[@adampotgieter8703]

This video is one of the most psychologically taxing exercises in malice and slander I've ever beheld. Bravo

[@jamesyoung3731]

It was like this with Arin too. All the guest players seem permanently pissed off

[@ojizzle20]

You may be joking but, to me this is such a sign of their friendship and chemistry. These games were so good.

[@martincoppa6417]

They're all monsters, this is exactly the way my friends and I harass one another, only, we are 'slightly' less cordial 😆

In this episode: Prof feels the power of a Modern tier 1 deck surge through his veins

[@TolarianCommunityCollege]

You're telling me this is what it feels like not to play merfolk? The power...the power...

[@thirdcoast6513]

40:04 are they talking about modern horizons 2? Im lookin to pick up some fetch lands

[@OnlyTheCloud]

@@thirdcoast6513 I dunno if it's purely the luck of the draw but I literally cracked two foil Scalding Tarns from the last Modern Horizons 2 set box I opened up. If you're just looking for fetches it might be more ergonomic to buy them as singles but you can definitely find some that set if you want to just open packs.

[@TheBizzerker]

@@TolarianCommunityCollege At least Murktide sounds a little but like Merfolk.

Easily the greatest magic commentary duo ever, so glad to see P-sully and C-philly back at it

[@JaySay]

They're one of my favorite personalities within the magic community. Such cool, knowledgable, fun guys!

[@thedude5able]

This is how you know Patrick and Cedric are true friends: when you can just casually throw shade at the other person and they're just like, "Yeah, OK"

[@deomalachite]

This whole episode is a masterclass in trolling. I have learned so much, primarily the importance of updating ones life total after resolving a Polluted Delta.

[@cassandrasibley228]

The dynamic duo needs to return. Their banter is always top tier

[@showdownz]

Yeah they were great, and the prof really jumped on board at times as well. They all killed it. I'm still laughing.

[@thedukeofdoom]

By far one of the most - if not the most - entertaining and fun episode so far (imho).

[@TolarianCommunityCollege]

That makes me so happy to hear! Thank you!

[@tazaf]

It was an absolute blast from start to finish. Loved it from the first seconds. The dynamic between those guys was very entertaining. 👏

[@r4v4g3r]

@@TolarianCommunityCollege Yeah, us magic boomers love these guys, thanks for having them on!

[@WilderGunn]

I could watch these two play Magic all day. Just brilliant 😂💚

[@jakehr3]

37:09 "But it's not signed, so it's a bit..." "Well, he died." Never change Patrick

[@JaySay]

I reaaaaaally enjoy the matter of fact way of speaking when going about a normal game of magic they have. It's a perfect mix of extremely professional, and sarcastic banter that every magic player can follow. Would love for them to be another staple Shuffle Up & Play group. Like once every couple of months they come around and shoot the breeze with Prof (and maybe others.)

[@fenderslasher]

35:58 Setup. Patrick explains how to manipulate a novice player and provides an example. 36:48 Very funny. 46:00 Payoff. Professor has the opportunity to surveil and leaves a card on top of his deck that he likes. Patrick, knowing that its a card he wants to keep, convinces the prof to surveil the card anyways with a boast so ridiculous that the prof falls for it and rids himself of a Flusterstorm. And it cost him nothing. Genius.

[@nigelhigdon1651]

The exchanges between Cedric and Patrick REALLY bring me back. The pausing in upkeep to ask how many cards in hand is legendary.

[@jlcdavenport6268]

All Shuffle Up and Play have been great watches, but this one is definitely one of the very best. The chemistry and banter between Patrick and Cedric was absolutely hillarious, and the Professor an equally great job of bouncing them off each other, and acting as a go-between. Great stuff all around.

[@GGun1t]

Arguably the greatest commentary duo in pro MTG history. I miss them in action so much!

[@TheRyanUnser]

I could watch the Cedric vs Patrick matchups all day, keep em coming

[@nathanielreichley4640]

"Well, he died." I bet he laughed at that from beyond the grave too hahaha

[@stbd2773]

The rapport/banter between this trio is unrivaled

[@ExtraVictory]

This "trio" lmfao. Excuse yourself. There is no trio, only the duo of legend. Two of these guys have an insanely long history of working together. Traveling together, living together and making content together. One guy is a friendly.guy with a large platform who invites them on to show off their goated dynamic

I hope these shuffle up and plays are doing well for you! I really like them! I mean I like all your stuff but I hav'nt played magic myself in a few years because I've seen the direction that the company has been going and I'm just not into that. But it's nice to see fun people play fun games without all the drama! Keep up the awesome work Prof!

[@yggdrasilraphael4815]

I’m not a Modern player, and I’ve only known Cedric and Patrick from the previous episodes (because I’m French 😅 🇫🇷), but they are probably my favorite guests I’ve ever seen on a Magic KZbin channel... Your trio works so well with such energy and humor, I love it. Thanks to the three of you for lightening up my day ☀️

[@charlesstudioso1623]

Patrick and Cedric are pure gold. Thank you Prof for bringing us this episode and thank you Cedric and Patrick for coming on Prof's excellent game play show.

[@ThisIsUprising]

Such an iconic duo, had to watch the episode twice! Anything with Cedric and P Sully will always get my attention. Great episode!!

Patrick's face at 38:55 when the Prof bolts him. How he kept that reaction inside I will never know

When Cedric said "I tried to get one over on him" I died 🤣🤣💀💀

Patrick verbalizing every single step and phase of the turn just to get on Cedric’s nerves is hilarious 😂 I’m surprised he didn’t toss in a random “what color is your mongrel?” for no reason

Whenever I see PSulli play burn, I remember that gutsy stellar play he made against Ross Merriam during a legacy tourney

[@AmbianceXBL]

The chemistry between Patrick and Cedric is what makes them my absolute favorite commentators for MTG of all time, the hilarious back and forth banter and sarcasm is wonderful! I loved seeing them play each other, so much fun

[@Darkogazza]

Saw Cedric at a recent magic event in Salt Lake, that guy is truly a legend and a pillar of the game. Glad to see he's still around.

[@SchwettyBawls]

I've watched these guys on streams for a LONG time and have even played against them both a few times. I always fracking love the sarcasm laced commentary between them. The banter here very clearly shows these 2 have known each other a very, veeeery long time. The Prof hopping in on the banter train was cute too. Easily in my top 3 favorite episodes of SU&P.

[@LanaSavage]

What a stupendous episode! I know the trope is "Prof loses a lot", but seeing him win was so enjoyable. Patrick and Cedric were phenomenal guests! Well done all around!

[@derekwarren9265]

These are actually the only 2 modern decks I physically own, so I am quite familiar with them. Super cool episode with some hilarious personalities piloting some super cool decks!!

I'm a simple man. I see PSulli and Cedric making content together, I watch it

[@DutchPenquin]

This was stellar. Cedric and Patrick have such a fun rapport.

[@retrowaffles5442]

So ironic that, in all his harping about the 1 life point from polluted delta, Patrick was never correctly referring to the effect. The polluted delta doesn't deal damage, it required Cedric to pay life! Totally different Patrick!

I had a big smile on my face for the entire video. Best commentary duo any Magic tournament has ever had

[@johnmraz4332]

This is very quickly becoming one of my favorite series of yours prof :D Patrick Sullivan was my hero in Burn as I started dipping my toes into Legacy. Sullivan vs Merriam is one of the all time great moments in competitive magic history

"There's my guy!" Yeah I recognize this Cedric from all the Resleevable stories too hahaha love it

[@kylelees2064]

When Cedric says "Resolves." to P.Sullivan playing sunbaked canyon, that got me good. This was great to watch.

[@aerheart]

So cool that you were able to get the guys from the Greg Hatch Mono-Blue Martyr video!

[@eulefranz944]

Omg I love those two!!! I rewatched their other shuffle up and play surely over 5 times Their demeanor and interactions are superb!! LOVE IT!!!!

[@grantluberda7097]

Far and away my favorite episode of shuffle up and play. This kind of close teasing and joking is the perfect embodiment of the "Gathering" part of the game I've missed.

[@snoopy3323]

I was going through really rough time, and was coping by watching SCG tournaments (mostly Legacy). Patrick Sullivan and Cedric Phillips together releases so much feel good chemicals for me. Love seeing these guys together and actually playing Magic together, instead of just commenting (though I'd watch them commenting too)

[@RendaAdams]

These were some of the longest modern red vs red games I've ever seen... I loved them

Oh man, I'm so looking forward to Gavin being on the show. I'm glad his Good Morning Magic is back as well, because, I just missed positive emotions around the game. So much has happened in the last six months, and I'm glad the happiest man in MTG has reappeared on The Tube.
