Jon Irenicus vs Miirym, Sentinel Wyrm vs Raggadragga vs Lulu | MTG Commander EDH Gameplay

[@QMTG]

Our Commander Legends episode is finally here ~ what other commanders would you like to see from this set? Also, here's an insight into my life: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nGSXqKKmmtV5fJI

[@WilTron2112]

Hands down one of the best EDH channels. Editing is great, just the right balance of gameplay, animations, and banter IMO. Stay the course and I'm sure the channel will blow up.

[@QMTG]

Thanks! I hope so too

[@TMMoltsen]

Agreed!!! :)

Imagine hoofing it up with only 3 creatures and still having a monster on board. Wish that I could have raggadragga'd some more but alas, I lacked draw sources in construction.

[@migsterman67]

The only Commander I’ve built from CLB, I also went along the route of building in land animation as a finisher, and liege of the tangle…5 10/10 lands with trample with Raggadraggas buff…and castling the liege gave Raggadragga +7/+7 the previous turn! Greetings from the UK 🇬🇧

[@MT-me2sg]

raggadraggas ability triggers on cast, so craterhoof was an illegal target, since it hasnt resolved yet. Still a great match though!

[@RequiesAeternaGaming]

This is one of my favorite edh channels because these guys are clearly not here to make content-they’re friends having fun and sharing it with us. Cool stuff.

[@QMTG]

That’s right :) glad you enjoy!

[@hansolo8080]

I love your table talk and overall energy. Also it's really cool to emphazize on the fact that you want to show what the decks can do rather than win.

[@QMTG]

Thanks!

[@oscarperezcame]

man, I've found the channel a couple of months ago.. funny matches and clunky decks, everything you want from a commander channel hahaha... btw Matt is a treasure hahahaha

[@QMTG]

Thanks!

[@HinduGangsta]

i mean this in the most loving way but one of the best parts of the channel is how normal everyone looks

[@Cephalopopo]

I am watching your videos backwards in time and it is really fun to watch you guys play commander. Really great atmosphere. Love the friendly banter as well. Got to say that HaLuLu joke by Matthew was a banger. You guys are great! Edit: I recognized you sort of had some more editing in these "older" videos compared to some of the newer ones, especially showing the starting hands and like several animations and just general extra stuff. Just wanted to say I think it was really great like this, also the right of unedited scenes which show a bit of your personalities (which is still there in the newer episodes though) - just a tad of extra details but not too much. Really like this old video seeing it now 1 year later!

[@chriscunningham6401]

This is one of two channels where I can actually enjoy watching the EDH/Commander game. Thanks for posting the decklists, I liked the Lulu engine.

[@QMTG]

That's awesome :) you're welcome!

[@kanvaros4451]

This is gonna sound weird but Paul’s voice was so nice to listen to! Like a really good audio book voice

[@QMTG]

That’s his purpose on the show

[@Kingkulas91]

He has great cadence

[@CosmicGiggalo]

I was rooting for Paul the whole time since he was the only one in the pod to attempt a background commander. Very nice!

[@QMTG]

Yes, he can’t Luluse

[@DuneEcho]

Love the decks and banter! @Paul, glad to see you coming out of your shell and your decks are really rocking!

[@QMTG]

Thanks! His decks are fire

[@jasonhart543]

Another wonderful episode. Always a joy to watch you guys! The Hollyphant deck was so surprisingly nimble; really cool to see.

[@QMTG]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks!

[@michaelwallace4760]

At 36:20 the Raggadragga trigger cannot target craterhoof. It is an on cast trigger, so craterhoof is still on the stack when the ability resolves. Fun to watch though, well put together with just the right amount of editing and personality :)

[@QMTG]

Yeah :/ Glad you enjoyed it anyway!

[@trickfoot7221]

Have missed the chaos that Matthew brings to the table, great game, Paul's deck stood out for me, very cool build. Made my day seeing this pop up on my feed. I would love to see a non-hatebear/stax Myrkul deck!

[@QMTG]

Lololol. Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Maverickstyg]

Came from the EDHRecast community spotlight episode today. Almost immediately subscribed

[@QMTG]

Awesome, thanks!

[@Ranhert]

You guys are fantastic. It is a lot of fun watching your games because you can tell you are all friends first. There is no salt, just good-hearted politics and laughter. I have recommended your channel to all of my edh friends because it is truly a joy to watch. Keep up the amazing work. My favorite deck had to be Lulu because I have a 1 year old puppy named Lulu so I am biased. She may not make squirrels but she's happy to chase a few up a tree.

[@QMTG]

Nice thanks so much!

[@ShadowWarlock3]

Easily my favourite EDH channel. Thanks for another fun game!

[@QMTG]

Thank YOU!

[@Trufffles]

Craterhoof Behemoth isnt a valid target at 36:34 I dont think it changed the outcome but worth noting that Raggadragga is an on cast trigger.

[@paulcallaghan2876]

You guys are great. Seriously love the good vibes you have while you play magic. Please don't lose that

[@jodiealva]

hands down my new favorite channel! love everything about these videos, the banter, the pacing, the editing. Chefs kiss to these players

[@QMTG]

Thanks!!

[@Carolyn510]

As always, thanks for posting the decklists. See something new and interesting every episode.

[@QMTG]

You're welcome :)

[@ryanquinn1257]

Loved this game, and y'alls energy! Was checking out some other people's Irenicus decks and stayed for the content!

[@QMTG]

Awesome, thanks!

[@themochaman]

This channel always plays commanders that I actually want to see!

[@QMTG]

That's great!

[@dreddbolt]

New subscriber here. Excellent plays with Paul's Lulu, Loyal Hollyphant//Cloakwood Hermit brew. Having ninjas available in white and green is quite nice, especially dealing with donate strategies. I decided to go with Lulu//Veteran soldier, using vehicles and other flicker effects. For dragons, I'm trying for straight green with Skanos Dragonheart//Acolyte of Bahamut, and I've already found some very old dragons for the 98. For control, I'm working on an Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward//Candlekeep Sage flicker brew involving the cartouches/trials (Amonkhet), Lightform, and Mistform.

[@ConstanceMists]

I love this channel so much you guys are so entertaining! Probably my favorite gameplay channel!

[@QMTG]

Aww thanks!

[@mintifur]

My first episode of Quintessential commander and it's a banger, I love Miirym and this episode shows how powerful she is!

[@merelythepawn]

The elephant's too cute to Luluse. It has flying, kill it.

[@QMTG]

It's a THREAATT

[@Richuardo]

Great video, as always. Definitely inspired to build 1 or 4 of these decks, they all looked super fun

[@QMTG]

Thanks! Yeah they were all fun

[@user-xz9mn9pr1e]

You guys seem like you are having so much fun! Keep up the good work! I wish you so much success 🙌

Another amazing game, I look forward to watching Matthew attack Esmond for the rest of the year

[@QMTG]

But why

[@redbirdriot]

Yay! Glad to come home from FNM and see this did get posted today!

[@KeroTheInvincible]

You guys are always a joy to watch. Hope you don't mind if save all those decklists for later, a lot of the commanders I've been theorycrafting this set. Biggest surprise for me was Lulu. I'll admit I disregarded her before, not quite sure what to make about an LTB +1/+1 untap commander, but Paul's list looks very interesting to play.

[@QMTG]

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed them :)

Best gameplay channel out there!

[@QMTG]

Aw thanks!

[@REDMDavyd]

I'll be honest, I underestimated how much card advantage Dragonborn Champion can bring. Will definitely reconsider it for my own Miirym deck!

[@QMTG]

It’s so gooooood

[@robertt.4176]

I play it in my Ur Dragon deck. It can give a ton of card advantage.

[@QMTG]

[@MistyGiraffe]

Love your work! Love the decks and excitement and genuine enthusiasm. I wonder if it'd be worth putting the decks on your power scale at the beginning of the episode so we know what kind of deck your playing and how it'll apply?

[@QMTG]

Oh yes great suggestion

[@MistyGiraffe]

@@QMTG thanks ☺️ also RIP Esmond everytime he plays with Matt next 🤣

[@moralessanchezoscarelias6412]

You are great deck builders! Also, too cute to luluse! 😂

[@KensanOni]

I have recently discovered Lulu, Loyal Hollyphant, and I am so happy to see someone play it, even if it is in Selesnya instead of Boros.

[@QMTG]

Lulu is great :)

[@vincentaponte5726]

Ahh now I understand the reason for Matt's shade towards Esmond during the more recent episodes. BETRAYAL!! lol.

[@chummer2060]

All the commanders were very interesting. Great game!

[@QMTG]

Thanks!

[@TimmytheSorcerer]

Such a funny game 😂 def sub

[@moocowp4970]

I just started trying to build a Jon Irenicus deck, was disheartening to see not a single gift stuck for more than one turn cycle, people are so ungrateful 😅 Also I have recently moved to SG from Australia, I might watch more of your content going forward, hoping to start playing some EDH in SG soon :)

[@moocowp4970]

My Jon gift deck I have some self-sacrificing gifts, but a bunch of death touch creatures in the early game replaces the pillow-fort effects (no No Mercy or Propaganda for me) or can be given as gifts as soon as Jon comes down theoretically. I figure people won't mind being given them too much since they're just free attackers and I get cards, so yay, win-win! I wasn't willing to put the nightmare in my deck, too worried about people casting spells before I've given it away haha. I also am building a Sefris deck, so I'll check out your precon video now :)

[@estefanalbarran7889]

Luluuuuuuuuu!!!! Damn I loved that deck idea. When I got my Baldur's gate cards I actually picked up Raggadraga cuz I am forever Gruul and he's amazing but Paul made an awesome Lulu deck and it got me hyped. Ps damn that dragon commander..... too broken

[@mangopanda]

Great episode. I would love to see Neera come out.

[@QMTG]

Thanks!

[@TimmytheSorcerer]

Really cool to see a steel golem in play 👌

[@QMTG]

Hahahah indeed. It did not last long though

[@taylorharbin3948]

I was lucky enough to draft Jon Irenicus. I’ve been working hard to build a good commander deck, but it’s tricky. You have to be careful not to give too much away or else you leave yourself open.

[@removed3566]

29:16 He did said "no 7", not "no 7 or more"

[@QMTG]

The 7 stayed hidden in the deck

[@casually_lurking]

I see Jorn, I click Jorn. I love Dimir Santa Clause.

[@Lyes669]

As always, fun to watch but i really hoped you would do a draft like the first commander legends.

[@QMTG]

Thanks! unfortunately its a bit too much work and fewer people seem interested to watch a draft :/ would've been fun though!

[@NeroCM]

Hey, this is like Game Knights before it sold out. That's nice.

[@QMTG]

Lol. Thanks!

FYI there shouldn't be two Sarkhan Unsealing triggers off Miirym clones, it's only on cast.

[@dannyilagan5588]

Did Liang Ying have to discard for being over max hand size at the end? He successfully played Ancient Silver Dragon which means he shouldn’t have a max hand size for the rest of the game, right?

[@QMTG]

You're absolutely right, we completely missed that lol

[@imanujakku]

I wonder if jon irenicus is better off playing a token deck with decayed zombies and giving those away since they arent worth a card and your get a card when they attack. Cloning him with spark double or sakashima would be neat too to give away more tokens and draw more cards.

[@QMTG]

That’s interesting!

[@Azflip151]

Sarkhan the now-broken 😆

[@TheLoudestRager]

When playing Jon irenicus can you give a player more than 1 goaded creature? Like in 2 seperate turns? or can you only give each player 1 to control

[@MitchieDBBC]

If i played with Jon Irenicus, i woukd he the biggest menace to the format. I would use mind control cards and give those cards to a different opponent. Maybe use a boardwipe and a card that lets me take creatures from my opponents graveyards

[@QMTG]

Lol yeah do it

[@Michevous_Ren]

At 25:49, countering the mana drain delayed trigger is a misplay. Mana abilities, even if as a result of this, cannot be targeted.

Kind of a big misplay at 9 minutes. Jon should have given himself to another player, but you kept him. Would have changed the entire game.

[@MilitantM0m]

You did it later at 30:45 which makes the misplay worse! But otherwise a fine episode.

[@QMTG]

It’s “up to one” creature, so it’s not compulsory to give Jon to an opponent
