Amazing guests this episode! Can't be more grateful for them showing up

[@SenorCoupon]

If y'all don't start selling food tokens featuring Ian, you're passing up on a gold mine

[@BlackStorm18]

Would it be possible to have a link to the documents discussed in the video?

I'm 20 minutes in and I don't understand the point of this episode. Is it just "Rules are good"?

[@supachigga]

This is the first mind sculpture video I've watched. What is the policy on allowing proxies at all these cEDH sanctioned tournaments? Especially at WPN stores?

[@captshetz]

Sanctioned tournaments, by definition, do not allow proxies.

[@Dgoold2]

The largest majority of cEDH events aren’t “sanctioned” by WOTC, so proxies are allowed

[@darth-umbrex]

This is largely the problem with sanctioned cEDH as proxies are basically needed unless we finally see the end of the reserve list.

[@CokaShimoda]

I would have liked to hear more discussion around the new rule change document for tournament EDH.

[@pokedadsam9041]

I’m just so confused over transphobia in magic. I care far more about my opponent presenting their deck for a cut than their presentation of gender, race, or lifestyle choices outside of the game.

[@jonathonfoster3942]

What are the advantages /incentives for a cEDH tournament to be "sanctioned"? From what I understand commander is a format regulated outside of Wizards purview. I know there have been unofficial documents written to address this multi-player format. Can the current Commander Rules Commitee simply adopt these existing documents as canon?

[@MageSkeleton]

To answer the question you started the podcast off with, it's the reason why Codie won in that tournament. No one knew how to deal with it and potentially those who did the Codie player had the means to protect their play. There's a reason why a deck is considered "meta" and there are decks like Pako Haldan where they're "anti meta" but most of these types of decks are known. When someone manages to brainstorm a deck build that actually works even if gimmicky, players don't know what it's capable of and typically lose to such a deck. 17:00 the fifteen minute rule is really dumb, especially at my LGS where the majority of people who show up just want to play casual commander but their only option is to enter the commander tournament where there are prizes for top three and because there are so many of them they have managed to chase out us players who show up to play specifically in the tournament with our Competitive decks. Now for a competitive deck, fifteen minutes is not bad. But these fools come with their casual decks and they tend to run the game out to a draw. They also tend to "gang up" on the one competitive player who ends up in their pod (which happens way too often) and you can't prove bad sportsmanship as each play was plausible deniability.

I feel called out! 😂 I've only played 2 games of cedh, on mtgo. I actually won both games surpringly. But I fall under the category of someone who doesn't play cedh. Although I wish I could. Too many reasons to list at the moment. But you guys make good content! Casual feeling through the podcasts, but I also get the sweat vibe! I love it! Keep on keepin on

[@jonaswilliams9755]

I absolutely loved this episode! Love seeing Seth and Max here. Can confirm, Seth is the sexiest judge in Magic.

[@nickprado3849]

Seth has done a lot for us in the Krark discord. Very valued member of the community!

[@MrInvisibleJ]

Gonna be honest, got a bit distracted by the sheer variance in backgrounds for everyone

[@floridaman6982]

I barley even look at the screen for these haha

[@wesjaguar]

Listening is done with ears, not eyes.

[@Teknomahge]

Thanks for this episode, great choice of topic

[@GageTheMage2003]

What are the links to these resources for tournament rulesets?

[@CokaShimoda]
