Shock Collar Commander 2 | Box Brawl Invasion Commander

[@Chewy-Pudding]

3:59 The current Head Designer for Magic, Mark Rosewater (Who obviously worked on bloomburrow), was in fact on the design team for Invasion 24 years ago.

I’ve never played magic the gathering before but I’ve watched all these videos multiple times

[@Roguchii]

You're the KZbin hero

[@MonDBlancBranford]

Magic has a pc game called MTG Arena and its a very fun way to learn about the game and enjoy it without owning any cards 👍

[@gj4312]

You should consider it it's great. You can get very cheap good decks. The commander's quarters is a youtuber that does a lot of fun budget decks. I recently made a version of his old stickfingers deck. Seen that you have a witcher profile picture. I made it because old stickfingers is basically a leshen

[@kdawg8147]

​@@MonDBlancBranfordIt's also free to play too!

[@DwreckJ]

I can’t imagine👀 I’ve been playing for years and even I struggle to keep up w what’s happening sometimes

[@kehllanstevenson7653]

32:10 Drew should have been shocked, as he didnt do the giant trigger

[@barrelrollio]

Missed it multiple times. Shock em extra next time!

[@kehllanstevenson7653]

@@barrelrollio Agreed!

[@Vulcren]

He missed this trigger at least 3 times

[@dovakiin_beast6177]

This trigger was only ever resolved after blockers, which should have been a shock every single time it was declared as an attacker

[@bcw1nc865]

34:00 forgetting about first strike is PAINFUL

[@MaineMax]

Had me sitting there looking at the rules again thinking I was crazy for him not blocking

[@12jacobmar]

I felt bad for Matt this game 🥲

[@Phelddagrif1998]

I was screaming at my phone! Matt really needs help going through the basic rules again. He should not be playing Commander if he doesn’t know what simple abilities do. He needs arena in his life.

[@conker1847]

It's so weird, b/c nobody "broke" any rules but Charlie and Drew said his commander would die which is incorrect so I feel like that deserves a shock . Problem was they were playing so fast b/c they probably instituted the time limit to make sure the game didn't take forever that they missed it.

[@GothamKnight-hsw4vx526430]

They all gaslit his ass and got away with it unpunished too

[@SuperTheNobody]

19:50 hate weaver actually dies here under current rules, regenerate replaces the next instance of being destroyed which happens after all the damage both ways has already happened

[@iamFulky]

Thought so.

[@kirillsniff9133]

was about to comment the same thing 👍

[@char4336]

came to the comments to say this glad some one said it. regenerate is my fav keyword

[@sweetlou00002]

Exactly I came here to say the same thing it just removes the damage on your creature and removes your creature form combat, but unless it died from first strike then it still dealt the damage to the other creature before it would of died, and been removed from combat

[@MrMartinSchou]

Even back in the day, that would be the case. The only time I can think of where it might not kill the Hate Weaver, was if Hate Weaver had first strike, because then you had to regenerate the creature to survive the damage, and that would remove it from combat.

[@Suddosa]

Shock collar and turn timer might be too much. Nobody noticed that loafing giant doesn't become immune to damage, it prevents the damage it itself would deal. I just really liked the first shock collar episode and was excited when I saw part 2 was out, but this episode/video lacked the attention to the rules imo.

Agreed, it should be more about playing right than playing very fast. Turn timers could still be ok if it was 2-3 minutes per main phase, but it would be better without it for well thought out plays to be made (without misplays or it leads to shocks). More recent sets might need even more time per main phase, as magic cards have become more and more wordy. Seeing the loafing giant trigger becoming a "after damage" trigger multiple times instead of an attack/block trigger is unfortunate.

[@pajander]

Yeah, in the first one the shocks made them play a lot better, here it made them play worse. Both can be fun of course, but probably better when not combined. Even the judge didn't really have enough time to follow the game closely enough in this one.

[@onefightone]

wow it turns out loafing giant is super strong in a meta where you can just choose to ignore its downside lol

[@Blackburn6969]

Matt has now officially become my favourite player on the channel

[@Zonyxe]

He even licks his nose sometimes. Not sure why that's good, but it sure is something. (20:44)

[@escobarisanoctopus]

33:55 - MATT YOUR COMMANDER HAS FIRST STRIKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@derickwheatley3941]

36:25 Matt was betrayed THIS episode. Falsely telling him his commander would die to the block the turn before was filthy.

[@GothamKnight-hsw4vx526430]

For real, what a load a shit. No one was shocked for that and judge didn't catch it either its so plain to see

[@kingjinendra6521]

Matts commander Tsabo wins at 33:25 against charlie's kavu because of first strike ;/

[@KingArthurFleck]

Great spoiler, thanks

[@LaserfaceJones]

​@@KingArthurFleckWhy are you in the comments and mad about spoilers, it's even got a timestamp halfway through the video

[@samjohnson9212]

I really love the box brawls. I hope you guys get through every set. This channel got me into MTG and I love it

[@epsleon]

At 34:02 isn't that a shock for everyone? They all say Matt's commander would die in the trade if it blocked the land guy, but his commander has first strike and (unless I missed something) Charlie's dog doesn't.

[@GothamKnight-hsw4vx526430]

Yea they should've been shocked and corrected that was some serious bullshit

[@dailup]

Invasion was the first expansion i played when I started Magic back in my school days, ah memories.

[@MyGyarados]

I didn't recognize the box, then they started ripping packs, and a flood of nostalgia hit as I recognized so many of the cards and the set symbol. So awesome.

[@frivolousmayo7222]

16:06 is probably my favorite skill check moment yet lmao

[@Toramizu7]

Looking forward to the next video where you shock Ryan like 15 consecutive bolts for misplaying Urborg Phantasm this whole time.

[@wynterstone5872]

I'm glad the shock collars came back, but that judge missed A LOT of triggers. So maybe in the future someone with more experience and understanding of the rules could judge? Cool video :)

[@spenyn7]

Bro the freaking box brawl intro gets me so damn hyped every time

[@DenizenWolf]

24:20 Matt doesn't tap his Phyrexian Battleflies when he attacks Ryan with it. Easy shock missed.

[@devilturtl3]

Was kinda expecting a 9/11 joke at 0:56

[@MrAppleberry62]

Drew missed a loafing giant trigger at 32:02, 37:38, and 40:09 should be zapped thrice. Drew remembered once between these and Zach remembered once at the end. At 43:13, Ryan’s urborg phantom still dies to Drew’s land. The damage wasn’t “combat” damage.

[@cesardanielgatuno969]

Magic rules scare me not gonna lie chief.

[@krippledkitten6334]

The phantom did die I believe he just activated the ability for memes

Invasion was my first magic set...damn I feel old. 6:06 6:38 Armadillo Cloak and Harrow are still one of my all time favourites. 27:36 That was scary 😂

[@WhizzerdSupreme]

This is so nostalgic. The first cards I ever got were from Invasion. Obliterate has a special place in my heart

[@Kommunist_Kittens]

Charlie has single handedly plunged me into a new obsession, MTG grabs hold strong and doesn't let go...

[@justinas1237]

I love shock collar commander, keep up the content

[@chubmouse]

I'm still too noob to recognise what actual triggers they all missed, but for a shock-collar game, it felt like they were being way too co-operative (and lenient) with calling out each other's stuff they'd get their skin toasted for otherwise. A fun game anyhow!

[@epicthief]

Yaaaaa whooooo!!!! Here we goooo! What a shocking conclusion, can't believe how this ended

[@indomobilegaming3636]

Finally. Shock collars series is my favorite content from you guys! Haha

[@n21james1]

Love watching them play old school cards! Great win by drew!!

[@commonfolk4864]

about question on 4:00 - yes, there is one man who worked on Bloomburrow and Invasion - Mark Rosewater himself

[@seasonallyferal1439]

God, I'm old. I played beta but hadn't until I watched you guys. Now i can't stop MTG arena.

0:56 It's so old it was back in the day when Magic was still played by tennagers

[@Mister_Myr]

my college has a whole magic club! also my lgs has high schoolers and even a middle schooler that shows up to commander night

[@KarpetBurn]

Im 19, me and my friends just discovered it thanks to Charles. Very fun game!

[@TwilightWolf2508]

A touch of feedback for next time you guys do Shock Commander: have the turn timer on-screen so we know how much time they have.

[@BunnyWhole]

32:25 missed combat trigger on the red guy, should have been a shock

[@MisterMidir]

19:45 A creature that regenerates still assigns combat damage (unless Charlie had first strike), so Charlie's creature should have died.

[@holzinatorius]

Wonderful Commander game! Invasion block was so much fun back in the days.

[@treggumbrianna2315]

It’s crazy to think this set is older than me, also the commander Matt had I recognize from the Magic the Gathering Invasion novels which was super cool to me.

[@6slade]

I think it's the goose bumps theme in the first couple seconds every time

[@Berney42]

The judge should be shocked. Regenerate removes it from combat, yes, but as a replacement effect when it would be destroyed. Since it was going to be destroyed by combat damage, it still deals combat damage.

[@dabo77777]

Glad to see the shock collars come back, correct play is best play

[@HafusAndLegacy]

Yay legions and onslaught was when I first got into competitive magic :D

[@orcwordlaugh1360]

1:00 New York had two extra buildings...

[@really.really.]

48:14 I'm pretty sure legions has no multicolor, then like 3 legendaries, one of which is Paige and you lose if you cast her from the command zone. So partner rares? So excited

[@really.really.]

OMG the set only has creatures also!!

[@omnivision616]

Invasion was a damn good set. Was a teenager when it came out.

[@SprangMcCrang]

Invasion came out before 9/11… and Charlie brain went to 3 Doors Down.

[@tychan1985]

I started playing Magic in this set. Mr. Stark, I don't feel so good. Also, fun fact: Expert set was how they designated the blocks that existed outside of the core set which was white bordered. Expert sets had keywork mechanics that did not appear in core sets like 6th or 7th edition. Invasion was the birth of the Kicker mechanic, from which so many other MTG mechanics draw inspiration.

[@hahahafunniness]

My favorite part of these is watching Drew get salty playing a game.

[@jonathanklein3211]

actually when Charlie attacked Matt with the 5/1 with haste Matt could've blacked with his commander because his commander has first strike so the ground unit would've died and his commander would've taken no damage because the 5/1 would die from first strike damage.

[@frojomojo2312]

I love watching these guys video's on magic it's just so purely entertaining and fun

[@baals_bestie8074]

43:00 I believe Ryan prevented combat damage that wasn't combat damage, he should have lost that creature

[@lacasa6322]

i agree

[@FalloutKlingon]

i'm not sure if you're trolling but if you check again he did lose the creature, he was continuing the meme of prevent combat damage

[@akshatsinghal5293]

He did lose that creature. The no combat damage thing was in response just for the bit. No practical purpose

[@baals_bestie8074]

I thought the resolution was he washed damage that wasn't there my bad if I'm wrong

[@themadgamer4571]

I thought it was cool to see Ryan playing this round. By the end of the video though, I'm thinking the show will be most enjoyable with Ryan as the dedicated judge shocker.

[@wolfbob]

wait so at 33:44 charlie is sending two attackers one of them being his legendary commander, what does "protection from legends" do on matt's side of the board? is matt able to be the target of legendary creatures and spells?

[@SuperTheNobody]

a permanent or player with protection from [property] cannot be D.amaged E.nchanted/E.quipped B.locked T.argeted by anything with the property none of which matter in this particular case since charlies commander is doing none of those things to matts commander, hope this helps

[@chris4439]

Matt's commander had first strike, it could have made the block on the Kavu

[@hellglaser3450]

Invasion was my first prerelease :)

[@Rocknoob49]

For future Reference, when Matt played that Backlash, it may have been a better idea to wait until Ryan's turn. Before he moves to combat, tap down the dragon and boink Ryan

[@filmfanaticryan156]

19:50 - give the Judge a zap.

39:59 wouldnt regenerate be a mana ability?

[@SuperTheNobody]

in mtg the term mana ability refers to abilities that produce mana (and don't target and are not loyalty abilities) the most common example for a mana ability is tapping a land for mana hope this answers your question
