I love that you upload this kind of contend. But i feel like you aren't paying attention to the game and miss a lot of stuff. The benefit of commentators actually is that they explain stuff to you. For example, i didn't get the Misdirection interaction at the beginning. Can anyone reconstruct what happened? Anyway thanx for uploading PREEEEEMODERN!

[@CloudgoatRanger]

In the moment I had assumed that it was to redirect a counterspell to target Misdirection. Watching this now, it looks like it was in response to a Stifle, which I don't think would have any other legal targets for Misdirection to choose from. Unless I'm misunderstanding something the Misdirection wouldn't be an effective counter to the Stifle in this scenario

@@CloudgoatRanger Thank you. I assumed the same. Maybe they misplayed it. Idk. Love your channel. So many different Premodern matchups! Keep it up

[@christopherlapp4553]

He could have waited a turn to Gush then drop Stasis to go to turns in game 3

I really enjoy watching für "Delver" deck of the format, Stiflenought. Guess I habe to built it myself. Again thanks for the content of the best format.
