QUEST FOR THE JANKLORD Episode 4 | Jank EDH Commander Gameplay

In which the dudes take a field trip. For the faint of heart, gameplay begins at 12:31.
Guest Starring Dan Young, the Booster Demon: / @boosterdemon7122
Four dudes, out of cash and addicted to cardboard crack, struck a deal with a demon for unlimited booster packs…
…those booster packs just happened to be Fallen Empires.
Now the dudes are stuck on a nightmare plane, forced to play commander by the demon’s janky rules FOR ALL ETERNITY. And you get to watch!
Behold the torture of ultra-budget EDH as the dudes vie for the victor’s prize: the title of JANKLORD and one month in the real world.
Will they find a way to escape? Or play jank forevermore?

THANKS FOR WATCHING. xoxo

[@topthog]

The wheel has a heart on it because you should support your LGS!

[@williamsexton1389]

I always thought it was for home is where your heart is

[@CyberMetalOverlord]

Or that your LGS is the heart of your gaming community

[@LarsMarkson]

I once found an Elesh Norn in that exact bulk bin. I told the guy at the checkout but he said it was their mistake and I got it for .20 The source rules.

[@JohnSmith-ox3gy]

Lars Markson At my lgs we have "sealed" event where you get one thousand grams of cardboard for 5 euros. Every time I have found cards for my binder above 5 euros.

[@Collisto2435]

My LGS has several bulk folders for different coloured cards that players tend to rake through. The owner said that everything in it had the same set price, so your reward for digging through it and finding expensive cards was basically to get them at bulk card cost.

[@DoomGuyDestructotron]

The "no deal" wink was amazing! Great game as always. My compliments to the Demon!

[@ryanrobinson2357]

I'd thought since I found these guys a week ago that they looked weirdly familiar, and then during this episode I noticed that their LGS is Source Comics and Games, which is also my LGS. Good to see people from my neck of the woods making something this awesome. Nice job guys, this series is hilarious! Keep it up!

[@SchneeWaltz]

I also thought it looked exactly like the source, i went there so much in college. They are hilarious, i love the 90s gameshow format

[@casualjag7818]

Normally I hate interruptions to game play, but the artist spotlight was done so well I have 0 complaints. Well done demon. P.S. Sorry bout the nephew :/

[@MSherk26]

This has quickly become my favorite channel for commander content. So well edited and playing jank keeps the games interesting. You guys have a great group dynamic and I look forward to more content!

[@retropulpo]

Thropy mage cannot search for vector asp, it only searches for cmc 3

[@JANKLORD]

Tim is spending some time strapped to Ashnod's Altar for that one.

[@lilacpilot3437]

Yep, it's bothering me a lot.

[@isaoblack987]

@Sebastian Baumruker the rack is cmc 1. cursed rack is cmc 4.

[@Nemonowoa739]

can we just take a moment to appreciate how wholesome joe and the intro is? we must protect him

[@BeanieGuy2112]

I stumbled on this channel on a whim, and I'm currently binging it. The plot is amazing, and the gameplay isn't stale because of the jank. Land>Sol Ring gets boring. You guys are bar none my favorite mtg gameplay channel now. The Demon has pleased his audience with the pain of these mortals.

[@mx.woofers]

The wink to show "no deal" was just....so evil and hilarious!

[@tristan9125]

I never realized how underappreciated this series is. Great video, keep making sweet stuff

[@MillerSKT1]

How have i never heard of this show before? This is incredible.

[@goodguyshuckle9270]

its obvious that the heart is meant to represent giving love to your magic community by buying locally for this playmode duh

[@Scrumbumbler]

These intricate subplots really put me in a good weird mood Pared with great editing and engaging people make this a great series! In the end the off-kilter edge its pretty rad

[@nuggetstheunicorn1592]

You guys are easily by favorite EDH gameplay channel. The chemistry between you guys is infectious and nothing feels forced and scripted like in game knights (barring the opening bits which are clearly scripted but enjoyable nonetheless). I don't understand why y'all don't have more of a following and I'll be sure to tell whom it may concern about the fantastic work you guys are doing!

[@Rendack]

I have been checking every day for the next episode since I discovered the channel weeks ago. What an excellent way to start the day, and the work week!

[@calebanderson6193]

“Cough” “cough” Ahem : rules infringement of the 4th decree 19:30 trophy mate tutors for an artifact with cmc 3 not 1. P.S great video looking forward to the next one

[@brendaneichler5244]

I just found your channel. Great stuff. The heart means LGS because a good LGS is the heart and soul of a healthy magic community.

[@JANKLORD]

Love this.

[@TheAyxman]

That intro was great. Keep up the good work!

[@ThatStarkKid]

I hope you guys make it big. As an outsider seeing this quality of content, I would have sworn you guys have been doing this for a long time. Glad to have found your channel!

[@brettmcknight4677]

The mana ramp that Joe pulls off between 24:30 and 24:20 is out of control. He doubled his mana.

[@tmain1320]

I legit cackled when they went back to the tape and old dude winked at the camera😂😂

[@ericnguyen1848]

I’ve been waiting for this episode for so long and it’s finally here. You guys do great work. Also, that game store is massive.

[@chocopuppet3295]

The quality of the videos you guys put out is consistently remarkable. New subscriber and evangelist.

[@pendularnuncius2618]

This is insane! One of the coolest mtg series I've seen

[@philgil59]

that wink from john lmao "No Deal"

[@GG-dt5hh]

Never have I clicked a notification faster. I love what you guys are doing here.

[@JANKLORD]

Whoa. You are a saint...or perhaps a demon.

[@clockwork1994]

YAYYYYY!!! MAKES MY DAY woke up to a new episode of my favorite magic show, you guys rock

[@GG-dt5hh]

QUEST FOR THE JANKLORD Less Demon, more Devil. Red>Black

[@PitFighterPlus]

This...is absolutely perfect. I got this in my recommendations, YOU FREAKING NEED MORE PEOPLE SEEING THIS. THIS IS AWESOME. YOU ARE BEING LINKED EVERYWHERE ON MY DISCORD NOW. DO NOT MIND MY USE OF ALL CAPS, I JUST NEED TO IMPRESS UPON YOU HOW MUCH I LIKE THIS. (Sorry if that hurts your eyes. :P)

[@JANKLORD]

You...are absolutely perfect. WE CHERISH YOUR ENTHUSIASM.

[@orimsamitehealer1579]

Just discovered you guys through MTGMuddstah. I love it! It's like you guys have your own, personal, demonic GLaDOS. After binge-watching all 4 episodes, I admit that I am now looking forward to you guys more than Game Knights. Keep up the amazing work!

[@jeffrhall9219]

I must have watched this 20 times and not until today did I notice Tim's tear upon seeing the LGS. (Or was it upon seeing sunlight for the first time in a million games?)

[@karnblack]

That was an awesome episode. There are so many things that are great about this show. I love it. Keep it up!

[@thaxrechers6760]

Demons, building commander decks for less than 20 bucks, playing ridiculous jank, AND having a local game store!!! You guys are living the dream.

[@technoordeath]

At 39:50 Tim didnt pay the 1 black cost to make his mairsil have infect, so it would have been regular commander damage, right?

[@AshtonTheMelon]

Hell yeah. I love the creativity here guys. I really use to like Game Knights but I disliked the direction they went. I love what you dudes are doing and am hyped for each episode.

[@JANKLORD]

The Demon is glad to hear you enjoy watching the dudes suffer, Ashton!

[@jo_ken]

This seems really good for edh groups to do. You could get some super competitive commander, but you’d have to run a super budget deck.

[@ducktapeape5843]

I love this content I don't know how I stumbled upon you guys but you got me back into magic, thanks fellas keep up the jank work

[@Sean-yf6tj]

I was recommended to watch this channel from a friend loving it already. You guys are doing a fantastic job and looking forward to more videos!

[@JANKLORD]

The curse spreads!

[@NotetoSelf9292]

Yeah this is my favorite mtg channel now

[@HammerHavoc1]

I love this show, it's mystery science theater 3000 for magic and I can't stop watching

[@loganwoerner9134]

This was great! I love what you guys are doing, and I hope you get the viewership you deserve. Here's to 100k!

[@ThreatLevel9]

These are REALLY well made. Sweet video!!

[@dinopiggy2749]

Oh Powerful Demon I would like to see if any of the four can defeat you in archenemy commander If one manage to defeat you They can choose a commander they want

[@meatshild16]

Love the artist spotlight! That was awasome!

[@Togaoki]

Okay, the maniacal laugh of the shopkeep gace this an instant like from me. I've been enjoying the gameplay these last couple nights while at work, please keep up the good work.

[@ratneck2947]

Great song, great episode! haha really enjoy it every single time!

[@jo_ken]

Started gather all my current legendary creatures, and I already have commons and uncommons sorted into boxes so maybe I can do something like this with my local group.

[@colourbloo]

I can't believe this show is a thing, I love it

[@CR-kr9cs]

This is great background noise for brewing. high quality and fallen empires are phrases that don’t belong together in a sentence.

[@PeyTons-O-fun]

I subscribed to this channel bc of the recommendation from mitch on the commander's quarters, and I didn't know you guys are from the TC until you went into the source. I was like wait...I used to play mtg in a store with the same name 2 decades ago when I was in High School. I had to look up the credits in the video, so many kickass people are from MN.

[@ctheos69]

Joe singing Enya in the shower really made this episode for me

[@DingleBerryLord]

This series is on my notifications now. I absolutely love it!

[@dhammer5842]

The gremlins will cause some form of technical difficulty in every episode.

[@JANKLORD]

They're the worst.

[@RedMage95]

Fantastic episode, keep up the good work!

[@tatersgames]

Dude I love that you guys are in roseville I used to play at the source

[@halfpintrr]

I need to support y’all on Patreon. Holy shit, a Commander show with a story arc!

[@jaypeterson4881]

I love this channel! It has a MST3K feel to it. Being from MN, it was awesome seeing The Source in a video!

[@ThePhantomTomo]

Why did Joe want to go back to the nightmare plane so much? I remember he forgot something before he was teleported away last time but wasn't it left unanswered what it was?

[@JANKLORD]

He just loves playing commander more than life itself.

[@MegaGullas]

@@JANKLORD same

[@outbreakprime6246]

In case no one noticed, I loved the 8rack reference at the end. Great vid guys

[@clarkneola7347]

I've alwayd wanted to visit an LGS as big as that! We dont have much here in my third world province. :/

[@howieherbst6619]

Just so we are clear, Horseshoe crab gives his commander- U: untap Horseshoe crab...

[@Jakey-J-man]

i love the source i live right by it. also great stuff as usual.

[@metalthrashingnerdpodcast9864]

I love this so much. I need more of it in my life

[@Habeev07]

Catchiest theme song ive ever heard. So bangin!! This should have been a show on CABLE!!

[@majinshinsa]

This is why you never give the green mage a land...

[@JANKLORD]

They shoulda known!

[@DuelingCharisma]

He cares for the Janklord as he would his own child... what a standup guy! Also at 1:41 it looks like his boy’s getting into some nasty business xD

[@lukestange]

Ahaha I'm loving this series more and more

[@generalwarfare8874]

Love the video guys! You got yourself a new subscriber!

[@RaunienTheFirst]

"Two goblins" "Meow" "What?"

[@dinopiggy2749]

Cant wait for episode 5

[@JANKLORD]

Soon.

[@dinopiggy2749]

@@JANKLORD Thank you great Demon May the Jank be awesome for you of course

[@ectomorphosis]

This show is great. Does a Timmy like me proud. Can't wait for the next one.

[@Smilkma]

I've been waiting for a new video I'm so happy to see this

[@YourCrazyOverlord]

Holy crap, The Source is HUGE! I've never been to an LGS that bloody enormous. It's like a warehouse!

[@WhitlaPhobia]

This series has a great concept

[@bryanjortiz-serrano5775]

First episode and gotta say, that’s a dope intro

[@Habeev07]

Ah man... If only I started playing in 2000 when I was given a stack of like 60 cards by a friend that turned out to be random 6th edition, invasion, and prophecy cards. I was too young to understand the cards or appreciate them but now I get it... BEST GAME EVER!

[@Lukegamer]

lol Love the Keyforge joke

[@kolgrimur8795]

Very entertaining and isn't 3 hours long. Thanks!

[@iTheDuck]

Holy shit, John's reaction at 8:22 had me in fucking tears

[@rafabib]

I have to say I am thoroughly in love with Joe and I get chills whenever he says "woof"

[@sufferlogan]

Fun fact at 43:47 he should have targeted the guardian because the wording on ghostly flicker says "under your control" not its owners control.

[@chaoticrevenge7950]

Holycrap that lgs is huge

[@Axelman1234]

Tymaret was my first jank deck for EDH. I have such fond memories of losing with him :). I hope to see the same this episode.

[@jinxcurse6113]

I wish I had your guy’s lgs the one where I live is pretty small unfortunely :(

[@MrJankTv]

I like that everyone uses my name in the weirdest and strangest ways!

[@JANKLORD]

It’s a great name.

[@b.t.2796]

Thank for many happy film. Benny Wong

[@markbehiter523]

Trophy Mage into Vector Asp?????? Loved the Artist spotlight!

[@gparry12]

Keep it up guys

[@rafaellumrodas350]

Second time watching is even better!!!

[@krissnyman2526]

I absolutely love this, id sell my soul in a heart beat just to play.

[@Kaanfight]

Damn, that opening tho

[@kasparthenotsofriendlygoast]

trophy mage gets cads w/ CMC 3 not 3 or less

[@JANKLORD]

Upon reviewing Tim's mistake, the Demon cast Trophy Mage to fetch Ashnod's Altar. Tim has been strapped to it for the last week. He won't make that mistake again...

[@DuelingCharisma]

At 16:00 You could’ve used Manalith to float one to pay for Disciple, sacrificing it and gaining you 1 life while also preventing combat damage being dealt to your life.

[@anamariafiorito7065]

I guess Tim is never meant to leave. I can already foresee some backstabbing due to resentment.

[@diegogiurgola982]

That's the shit I'am talking about! I discovered your channel today, instasubscribed!

[@chriscox6230]

Trophy mage can't tutor for vector asp. It only searches for a 3 cmc artifact.

[@harz632]

Missplay yeah, but I don't think on purpose, afterall trinket and trophy mage are pretty similar.

[@darigazz666]

How did Trophy Mage get vector asp? Trophy mage says cmc 3, not 3 or less...

[@jackle978]

Janklords should have a fan meet up at the source and people could do games of commander

[@Suavek69]

Sac'ing that regenerate creature was really not needed - Marsil can exile card from hand so you could have that one Black mana up Btw when commander goes to command zone it does not trigger any death triggers so ragethrower should have dealt 2dmg less

[@emmanuelmadail]

Can someone correct me here if I’m wrong: Wouldn’t tymaret not trigger the Rage Thrower ability when it died since the player opted to put him in the command zone instead? I thought putting the commander in the command zone was a replacement ability, therefore it never hits the graveyard.

[@jinxcurse6113]

Emmanuel Madail you’re not wrong

[@connormcgee3709]

Love the content. The jank pleases me. I hate to be this guy but Dan would have taken Mairsil with portent of betrayal. The "counter" exile effect would have resolved bringing it back to the battlefield prior to portent's effect resolving. The target would still be on the battlefield at time of trigger. It would have worked if the exile effect lasted until end of turn. At least in my understanding of the stack. Please berate me if I'm wrong.

[@7eduDenOtahT7]

Marsil became a different entity from Portent's target when it came back.

[@connormcgee3709]

John Wiltgen It doesn’t remember it prior identity. Would it be a target first? Then since it was exiled as a target it technically has to become a new target as it enters again?
