Real Life Magic: The Gathering Duel! Special Effects！!

[@VRanger100]

Classic Burn player; just keep casting spells until they finally ran out of counter magic. Lucky for Chandra that Tamiyo didn’t have Flusterstorm considering all the other free counter magic she had.

[@64standardtrickyness]

Also if all they have are counterspells can't you wait for their next turn before you cast your instants?

[@sagejackson6886]

I was expecting flusterstorm lol

[@whatsgood123]

Lol classic blue player being smug

[@ODDnanref]

Or stifle. Nothing counters storm more than just stuffing their copying trigger.

[@451Duke]

- Lightning bolt! Force - - Really?

[@Flugzeugdreger]

Amazing. Not only did you make me wish this was a series but you also perfectly capture why playing against blue is so incredibly frustrating.

[@elementaleighteight]

Blue ?? Or the meta

[@Flugzeugdreger]

@@elementaleighteight Wait, there's a difference? xD (I actually have no idea what I'm talking about, just a filthy casual mostly into MTG for the lore. Feel free to roast me)

[@elementaleighteight]

@@Flugzeugdreger test of talents should be banned and every counter spellalong with a cost increase should have text that limits it just as removal does. Ie..exile target mono colored permanent..converted mana cost 3 or less..unless it's controller pays 1 etc..an all encompassing "counter" is too powerful considering it is not limited by exception.indestructible and hexproof are way way way way way way way more prevalent than can't be countered and are less effective at stopping any spell/strategy ..countering ANY mana cost spell without specifically including a particular set of cards meant to be the counter to a specific playstyle creates a boring and drawn out game and meta where the very strategy and usefulness and or uniqueness of any particular strategy other than to counter a counter with a counter and hope you can get to extra turns first in order to beat down your opponent with 1/1s.. Might as well be called " no you dinnit" as an additional cost to play this spell forego all strategy and playstyle . counter any spell regardless of its difficulty to cast, mana cost, life requirement, graveyard size or any other requirements. Then go through the entirety of your opponents deck regardless of where any card is and exile all copies of that spell..even if Its an integral part of a combo winning strategy.after this is done relegate yourself to no strategy, plan, or course of game action other than to wait and do it again. Overpowered unwanted and generally game breaking.not to mention extremely boring and out of place.

[@Flugzeugdreger]

@@elementaleighteight oh boy... You really needed that out of your system, didn't you?

[@elementaleighteight]

@@Flugzeugdreger very much so yes lol

[@Atrimpas]

I love how you orchestrated and used magic cards to create an atmosphere of playing a magic duel in real life plus it helps having awesome special effects 😀

[@bradensorensen966]

Tamiyo has all these counterspells and she just lets that Seething Song resolve?! What?!

[@tarvoc746]

Typical blue overconfidence: "I draw so many cards each turn, it essentially doesn't matter if I spend one counterspell or five."

[@bradensorensen966]

@@tarvoc746 She isn’t drawing any cards off of what is just counterspells. She two for one’d herself for a LIGHTNING BOLT!

[@caladbolg777]

Right because you counter the spell they get with the mana. Who cares if they have extra mana sitting around? Where I do fault this video is that a burn deck is running Grapeshot to begin with.

[@jinzo637]

Hahaha right!!!!.

[@raydelmartinez2905]

Tamiyo: If all you wanted was a scroll why didn't you just ask. Chandra: Oh, never thought about it 🤔

[@hanburgundy4317]

Please make more of these MTG duels - I never knew I needed this in my life lol And hell yeah for Chandra - she's one of if not my favorite Planeswalkers; I have two different versions of her in my Red/White Soldier deck.

[@weedragonauts4729]

i run a deck with like 8 versions of her.

[@hanburgundy4317]

@@weedragonauts4729 Mine has a couple Chandras and a few Ajanis lol It's a weird mix of zoo/minion, direct damage, and game removal.

As someone who is studying enviorment art and special effects also a huge card game and magic fan. This was extremely well done. Special effects were AAA Quality.

[@Thelaretus]

This is actually quite good.

[@disafear3674]

As a long time Magic player, this was phenomenal to see. Good work!

[@1088lol]

I don't play magic but I'm just in love with your animations and the actresses/actors are always superb too 💗

[@JustABrokenToy]

anyone else hoping for a Flusterstorm or Summary Dismissal at the end there? to be fair, I'm a blue player... Also Amazing LP keeps putting out incredible content and expanding to more card games, I'm all about it!

[@azoriusherald]

I was rooting for flusterstorm but I think we’re in the minority. A lot of people don’t like counterspells.

[@jinzo637]

I was wondering why she let seething song resolve like that if she didn't have the counters for her incoming spells. Then again I dont think she counted on a burn spell that has storm.

[@TSDT]

This was indeed amazing. Love the detail and how expressive the actors were. Also the anime-style eyecatch was just 👌

[@noahwolff5455]

My heart demands a full length feature film or a 1-3 season series. It doesn't even have to tie into the actual lore that was fukin awesome

[@PulseTriangle]

MTG as a VR game like this would be so fucking great. Hell any tcg

[@spliffi869]

Wow, that would be amazing indeed! I never considered that thought. Actually it could be a perfect game for VR, because the main downside for VR games is, that people will get sick if there's too much turning around and movement forced. But in a Magic duel the players basically just face each other, no need for running around. Imagine all the cool backdrops located in different planes, how sick summoned creatures would look and how it would feel to actually cast a spell with your own hands, thanks to the help of visual effects. Holy moly... I hope I get to witness that generation of VR card games still. That sounds so much fun, especially for casual magic formats / players, who just want to enjoy an epic fantasy card game and not turn MTG into "netdeck + math for the win", as most competitive players treat it.

[@stevendrake3155]

WotC this needs to be a thing. Like now!

[@christianboustani8284]

These mad lads went and made Chandra real Life is now worth living

[@isaiahwelch8066]

This makes me want to see someone act out the origin story of Kamahl, Pit Fighter, where in the arena, you had to draw mana from the possessions in your satchel. That would be an interesting video.

[@travishipp4972]

Holy shit I love this and Chandra is my fav Planeswalker.

[@davidhowell1415]

That’s the most impressive thing I’ll probably see this week. Truly amazing, excellent work!

By this video anyone that don't play mtg will think that mtg is all about casting burn spells and countering them but the visualisation is good enough by the way)

[@jordanbernardin]

I have never watched a video on here that i found so absolutley a-fuckin-mazing that i not only saved it but HAD to immediately watch it again.

[@artemi7]

Wait, they were playing with _ante?!_

Looks that way. I wonder what Mythic Chandra ended up getting.

oh my gosh wow! This is great. As a huge fan of mtg this is so cool!

[@boundless2166]

This is so cool nice work on animating MTG

[@yotodine]

Too bad the artists dont know the lore because then they would know that cards have NOTHING to do with battles inside the world of MtG. WE use cards, NOT them.

@@Goddamidon12 If i'm not correct they shifted over to animated. They had the brothers who did the avengers movies, but it fell flat. From what i've read they now have the people who did the castlevania anime for netflix working on the project.

[@pketr5]

I heard that a manga thats based on mtg is good.

[@quintonhoffert6526]

@@pketr5 I read that manga. It was ok; not particularly great as far as manga go but it was cool to see a MTG story in manga form. The art was also pretty dope, the story just wasn't incredible.

[@hoppeltrottel7484]

Hell hath no fury...

[@clagen86]

I wish Magic could be played more often as a spell slinging contest but it more commonly plays out like a Pokemon battle with various monsters being summoned and attacking the other player to death. That wasn't really represented here but pretty cool regardless.

[@tiozuradasexatas6754]

[@Shadowreaper5]

This is exactly how frustrating it is to face a counterspell deck.

[@j0j3qu99]

Animation and video quality are great! But you should also have made sure that the game is played correctly ;) "Red Elemental Blast" (which seemed to be played before "Blue Elemental Blast") can't be played without a target. The classic blue beam vs red beam is cool of course, but that is not how those cards work.

[@alextfish]

I think the idea is that REB is targeting an Island. That's illegal too of course because Islands are colourless not blue, but it's a common misconception.

My girl Chandra! Dang this was awesome!

this seemed more like 2 plainswalkers going at it rather than a magic match, 0 creatures casted....

Per the game lore, you _are_ a planeswalker when playing Magic - and not everyone uses creatures.

[@GreenFenril]

My only gripe is that it's very out of character for Tamiyo to simply whack that fire elemental.

[@matterhorn731]

The effects are awesome and the actors do great! And I loved how you represented tapping into lands for mana and drawing a hand of cards! That said, I have some critiques on the story. The _only_ offensive move Tamiyo made the entire video was squelching the poor little fire elemental (which seems like it was _maybe_ endangering buildings?). This makes Chandra's ultimate Grapeshot victory feel... kind of unearned. She was never in any danger, just frustrated by Tamiyo's defensive countermagic. Also, on that topic, Tamiyo's choices on what and when to counter are a bit sketchy. It kind of seems like she's just acting out how new players picture blue control ("they just counter everything I play and don't do anything!"), rather than saving her counters for the big plays while advancing her own gameplan. (Though of course Grapeshot would need a really specific counter, like Flusterstorm or Whirlwind Denial or Stifle for the storm trigger.) Still, I can understand why you'd focus on instants and sorceries, since creatures would be way more difficult to animate and draw the focus away from Tamiyo and Chandra. That _does_ make it harder to depict Tamiyo having a win-con... maybe some sort of Mill enchantment would've worked? Anyways just some thoughts. Still loved it!

[@kanelinden9400]

Pretty sure chandra should have called aa judge. Casting both forces without discarding a blue card. Also chandra is the true 1 head burn player casting her bolts on her main phases

Then again, Chandra did cast red elemental blast when there were only lands in play, and apparently used 7 mana to play an 8 mana combo... Lol
