[@jacksonstein8866]

One of the things i consistently love about Shuffle Up and Play is that prof will bring together 4 giant nerds (him included) that are such DIFFERENT brands of nerdy and it brings so much to all of these episodes! Nerd unity bbs

[@TolarianCommunityCollege]

This is one of my favorite comments, because it really is what I am aiming for. :)

[@plushtheotter]

the diversity is really amazing to see. there's like, always one person who makes it their goal to be the most attractive person on the episode and they pretty much always succeed

This was my favorite episode I’ve watched so far!

[@brandoncreek5709]

It's literally the magic school bus

[@Stalzer2002]

Immediately killing Prof after he called a guild meeting was Joey's way of saying "This meeting could have been an e-mail."

[@shinykitsunelive]

the only gruul response to a guild summit

[@arridueldes9843]

@@shinykitsunelive Exactly my thought, it was the most in character response possible.

[@VBFilms]

Joey could have waited for Profs turn and see what he does and respond at instant speed and kill prof on the stack in response to anything sketchy. Would've been much safer option to do that instant speed. I see so much sorcery speed stuff being done on Shuffle Up & Play that can and should be done at instant speed.

[@arkb0t379]

Joey: "I'm playing a bit of a different deck than my usual Golgari fare!" Joey: Life from the Loam

12:08 “Coke Dragon” is absolutely a Rakdos card

I'm pretty sure more than one person had that as a nickname in college.

Great, we get the fantasy knockoff Cocaine Dragon.

[@starchaser6024]

25:15 Critiquing people’s decks for being “off Flavor” is now going to be my favourite way to troll the table 😇

[@huckthatdish]

Always remember to call a flavor judge when an opponent commits a flavor violation

[@sundalius]

following it with being a jace truther was the cherry on top

[@Crypt4l]

Isn't there a ancient friday night magic with a infinite discussion, that Ulamog doesn't belong into a vampires deck?

Petition to make Flavor Judge a legal card

[@troytaylor8225]

I don’t get it. All my cards taste like cardboard?

[@tdip16]

OK, I'm SO grateful Joey sung 'This is the rhythm of the wild' like that cause I've done it for so long and needed someone to confirm I wasn't a complete nutcase, thinking it every time I saw the card.

[@Shydoshi17]

Fun fact: If you don't sing the Rhythm of the Wild as you cast it, it doesn't resolve.

[@PirateMaster45]

Now I need to sing it that way whenever I play that card!

[@mr.mammuthusafricanavus8299]

LOL Your not the only one :P

[@origaminosferatu3357]

Our pod have specific songs for a whole host of cards. Yes we've been playing too long.

[@xujpg]

me too!!!

[@comlitbeta7532]

It's a good thing sensible people at wotc were able to explain to the higher-ups that the professor post critical content because he loves the game and will support it. It gave use great content

[@Viperiish]

So, this group is gonna be a regular occurrence, right? Absolutely DED from laughing this whole episode!!! Would love to play at that table!

[@CAPTAINCHAOS_]

As a Red player, seeing a game with all 4 guilds with red in them is very very satisfying.

[@pennsimmons]

This episode has a special energy

[@vipergtsrgt1]

Special is putting it lightly.

[@pBlackcoat]

Prof didn't know he was going to gay brunch

[@chefpaddie3771]

Two things, 1: Evan's outfit was slick and very Rakdos. 2: This was one of the most hilarious groups so far. Great episode.

[@koenvandepoll927]

This has been one of my favorite episodes so far! Big compliments to the editor! All the little bits extra information and jokes were amazing. I cannot imagine how fun it must have been to think up all the fake usernames for the "comment section". Also props to all the players! And to Wizards for using this form of advertisement for the upcoming remastered set. Would not mind seeing that more often in the future.

[@Teedo_]

Can't forget the masochism!

[@hatchtheroostar6032]

Izzet player: calls for a guild meeting Gruul player: "NO. DIE." *throws a fistful of boulders* If that aint flavor, I dont know what is.

[@peterbrown7690]

I am loving the energy of this table. A mix of chaos and silliness My kinda people

[@rafaelvotu]

The chaos comes from the fact every single one of them is playing red.

[@7Stormwalker]

31:07 the timing on the 7-up was perfect

[@ElDocBruh]

So I expected chaos gremlin energy from Amy, but I didn't expect it from every single guest!

[@MortonFMurphy]

Prof is not at all like my father despite his undeniable Dad energy, but he reminded me of my old man several times in this particular video. My Dad passed last year and frankly disliked MtG but came around eventually. I'm playing again for the first time in years and it makes me feel like a kid again. Love you dudes.

[@hugmonger]

I just got to say, Dark Pact's outfit is so damn good for Rakdos. Like the outfit, the laugh, and the mad chaotic energy of this episode... I dont know who actually survives this match, but the Rakdos Guild won this match up front.

[@Shydoshi17]

Massive style points for sure, their fit is fantastic! I do wish that Joey and Amy had dressed to match their guilds like Prof and Dark Pact.

[@hugmonger]

@@Shydoshi17 I mean t shirt and jeans fits Gruul imo

[@pascalsimioli6777]

No it does not, lol. Gruul is much more leather jacket, tank tops and ripped jeans at the very least

[@starmanda88]

If Amy is invited I click every time. She is far and away my favorite MTG creator. Just boundless positivity and good vibes. Everyone was great during this episode though!

[@ShabbahCore]

I don't know but to me it seemed more like the opposite...: she wasn't fat and she was right there!

[@Punintentionally]

Angels are Bird Women was said with so much conviction and I love her. 😂😂

[@hodlsage8968]

I am 10 minutes in and had to pause the video at least 3 times to legit laugh out loud... I am not sure I can continue. The vibe is off the charts... It is like 4 people from different parts of town just found out they are now best friends !!!

[@christianhatke477]

This group was so unexpectedly amazing. It was like Prof was an overwhelmed babysitter just trying to make it through the game with his sanity intact.

[@santiagoluaces8479]

Joey's arms will never fail to hypnotize me...

[@Etruth14]

Can we just appreciate that Prof and DP wore outfits that match their color schemes for decks ❤ Very nice 😎

[@KnicKnac]

The energy of this video was so wild. Gotta love it

[@SteakOSaurier]

14:21 that Joey SMIRK when Prof says it like "drawer" is such a throwback to earlier episodes of shuffle up and play and i'm all here for it!

[@Thaelkor]

Shoutout to the editors for having a great sense of humor.

[@Agaures]

I'm less than 20 minutes in, and I love everyone in this episode. You all are an absolute Riot.

[@danielhenderson4795]

Realizing that these 4 personalities are all playing the Red guilds makes this much greater than I could have dreamed. Not even 10 minutes in! lol

[@mjr8888]

38:06 i love the Oooooooh from Prof. because Amy had to remind him about the minotaur and the mistake he made

[@DarthHao]

One somewhat subtle shot of Amy at 18:15 untapping that land with murderous intent is hilarious and relatable!

[@arridueldes9843]

Ok between the Soda Dragon jokes, the sheer on flavor of some of the players antics, and the Gruulgari deck... this episode was amazing, such delightful chaotic, slightly thirsty energy

[@LordDrieg]

Props to the editor at 14:02. I laughed to tears! That's was brilliant! 😂

[@IanWeaver]

Dear god I love Dark Pact Cosplay. Not sure why but their reactions and humor are absolutely perfect and I love them so much.

Just for the record, I have been loving the banter from the beginning but the 7-Up was what got my thumbs up.

Just in case you didn’t die to Joey’s lands he brought the guns 💪 for backup. Love the content prof, always have the best guests on with you.

[@lakupo]

I thought episodes with Arin were something else, but this crew has a truly special energy. Props to the editors for punching up the chaos! ...also I just realized that everyone dressed in both colors of their deck, except for Joey. It's okay, Joey, we still love you! *mimes holding a phone to his ear and mouths "call me"*

[@LOVES-A1911]

I just recently discovered this channel while considering getting back into Magic with the commander format after a four year break, it's a joy to see commander being played in such a fun and friendly way. Since I haven't bought any cards in the last four years I'll be doing a lot of RTFC, I hope that the opponents I face will understand.

[@ZydrateZaro]

This is the best episode.

[@hylian9098]

Thinking about getting back into MTG so I've recently started watching all these and loving every minute of them. This has been my favorite so far. This would be what i would show someone who was thinking about getting into MTG to have them play. Absolutely hilarious and so much fun to watch.

[@dr00ness]

such a fun group of guests this week! and if you look really closely, you can see they're actually playing a game of magic: the gathering

[@SeekerXBlue]

There's so much chaos in one room and it's spectacular to behold

[@TheBoss-vg2hw]

I can't wait to see this video! However, I wanted to suggest something for you guys to try ^^ with all the different versions of certain cards(Nilissa, Omnath, etc), what if you guys did a round of commander with only using different versions of one commander? For example, one person could have Omnath, Locus of all, another having Omnath, Locus of Creation, Omnath, Locus of Rag, Omnath Locus of Roil. Then everyone has to make a deck focused around those characters but they can't have any of those other commanders within their deck. This idea may have a few holes in it- but I wanted to suggest it still! Have a great evening and keep up the amazing work!

[@jackgebhardt2932]

The Omnath one sounds really funny.

[@eventuelleon748]

but do you have a 95 card deck or just a normal 99 with 5 Commanders? I like this idea

[@TheBoss-vg2hw]

I was thinking about how it can work, there’s a few ways you could do it. Each person could have each versions of those commanders then lower the amount of cards in their deck by how many commanders they have, I’d say they need at least 2-3 versions of that commander just so no one just puts a single version of the creature in. You can also do the same thing where each player still has 99 cards and that amount of commanders. You can also do it where each person has one version of that creature, like I said before, someone can have Omnath, Locus of Rage, another Locus of Roil, another Locus of Creation, another Locus of all. Then no one else in the game can add those creatures to their deck so everyone has their commanders a bit unique but also have slightly similar cards, relying on strategy and deck creation. Lastly, you could do a sortve commander bank. Where you put all of the versions of the commanders in the middle and everyone can use any cards that are in the within the color combination of the commander with the highest amount(example, Omnath, Locus of all would allow everyone to use all colors that he has) then everyone is in a sortve brawl to get the commander version they want, first person to pay for the commander keeps it till it dies then it goes back to the commander bank but costs 2 more to cost. Max amount of commanders that each person can have is 1-2, make it even so everyone can get one commander version. If anyone else has any questions then I can try to explain better if needed

[@TheBoss-vg2hw]

@@eventuelleon748I just sent something that has all the versions I came up with, hope it helps!

[@brainlessdoor4697]

I was able to refrain from laughing at Amy until the Baja Blast joke, then she got me.

[@Awesomesausages]

Very surprised the one-Mana cycling lands are not included in the Borborygmos deck. They make Loaming lands a lot faster, since you'll be rolling in Lands in play anyways :) Gamble, a.k.a. Red Entomb, also quite strong as just a second copy of Loam. Loved seeing Tummyrumbles taking it home, doubly so after a wonderfully chaotic and fun episode. (big, big Assault Loam enjoyer so I had to check out the list for inspiration :P Sprouting Vines and Nissa's Pilgrimage are sweet)

[@isaacclarke9490]

Joey will always be my favorite 😌

That voice sends shivers down my spine. It's sooo good.

[@anrikurisuto4432]

I'm really looking forward to this one, 3 guests from some of my favorite episodes! My all time favorite is the one with Joey and Tomer (still disappointed that the soundeffects have not been updated for all episodes to Tomer noises), closely followed by the one with 'I'm not talking like a dinosaur, right?!' 'No, dad...' with DPC, Spice and Crim, as well as Amy and her stealing spree. I also liked the crabs episode, though. I rewatch those episodes almost weekly, sometimes even daily.
