[@danteishere7792]

Couldn’t write up how flavorful the use of that last card Stephen drew was

[@kandjar]

Couple of suggestions for the end of episode point summary: 1- Get a Mic for Director Dan 2- It'd be great to have a quick point by point summary (like: Justin got 1 point from first blood, etc...) as opposed to just the final score board.

[@cinco_de_la_tarde]

my favorite play by far was the cycled decree of pain into dusk//dawn. Complete uno reverse card moment

[@MWorl91]

What a blowout

[@markbrierley6367]

Can we go back to the previous overlay? I miss seeing commander damage. Also I'd like to actually see the cards they play. I still don't know how John blew up the Sphere of Annihilation.

[@shinsua_]

It took a little bit of digging, but the card he very quietly cast was Return to Nature (Midnight Hunt art) (Also agreed on the layout)

[@MunchKING]

I liked seeing the Commander Damage as well.

[@onisama9311]

"You know the risks.." and so do I~ Couldn't help myself with Justin telling Steven whats up.

[@meaches2117]

Some country Dragons! i lost it laughin! you guys are awesome :) ....Bag of tricks tricked everybody! im weak!

[@timlanigironu]

I like how they clarified the dumb dungeon ruling AFTER Stephen got to use it illegally with the earthquake. The venture into that room happened when Nadaar attacked, so before damage and before Gnawbones trigger gave him enough treasures to cast it for X=3.

[@johnlaurencepatulan9822]

Justin's karma is the fact that he submitted a man lands deck for randomonium last episode. #teamgreen

[@kandjar]

Didn't think about that: Submtting a man land decks to be land screwed the following ep... I guess it is Karma lol

[@mathijsvanderburg]

Hi I may be wrong but, at 1:03:23 Jhonath starts an action killing creatures and miss counted the total wrong. He missed out on 2 triggers (1.The dead Carnifex and 2. and counting only one of the two snake tokens missing one of the tokens), making Stephens life total 10 and 1:11:18. (Making a precombat Hooded blightfang or an activated of the bow leathal at 1:18:26.) Great game thow. Keep up the the good work.

[@RobotButlerJ]

Lmao!! The director's laugh at the end is the best!

[@OGTahoe3]

At 46:46 Green should have ventured into the dungeon 3 times

[@DEV-Plays]

Radiant solar is an actual master of dungeoneering.

[@cclynchfilm]

Can’t decide what I liked more, Justin having to make that Arbiter play or Jon threatening to blow it up. Lol

[@gmpd4191]

That play cycling decree of pain was so awesome. No way anyone could’ve guessed that’s what he had.

[@cthree2982]

I think pity for Stephen was a real factor in the win. He acted like he wasn't having fun all game and then sneaks it out. I think Jon and Justin should team up on the first episode of next season and put Stephen in last to send a message.

[@121000003cm]

We didn't need to make eye contact, look we're on the same page today

[@brandandixon3943]

John misplayed by not playing the hooded blightfang before attacking. He would of drain Steven for 2 with his attacking deathtouch creatures.

[@samsimmons1100]

He also missed a Hapatra trigger when his Carnifax Demon ETB’ed. This would have ultimately resulted in two more snakes dying when earthquake wiped the board with Poison Tip Archer out. Stephen wouldn’t have had the life required to equip that equipment (his last two lands were an island and city of brass).

[@megaman161]

Once more, into the... Susan Surrandom. Arena of the Arbirtary. The Randomonium. The Colosseum of Randomness. And of course, the Randharmonicon.

[@wolex3124]

Mirandom Cosgrove

[@davida.yorkson3397]

Would it be feasible to have a 4 week long project where each week each player rolls for a colour, then builds a deck with that colour, then the next week they roll for a different colour, and so on until the 4th week where everybody has a 4 coloured deck?

[@TyranitarStudios]

This sounds very fun

[@YaoBao1]

This would be a SWEET idea for a "theme"! :D (quotes because usually for them, themes only last for one episode outside of randomonium)

[@mathmagician5990]

Bogardan Hellkite is an 8 drop dragon that was in the dragon-themed DnD commander deck

[@dustyfox6511]

Jeremy was using banding incorrectly for a few attacks this game. Which honestly is fair if you didn't play MtG when it was part of the game. A banding creature can band with a nonbanding creature but you can only have 1 nonbanding creature in the stack each time.

[@TheReal_birbwizard]

Banding needs to be banned. It's just annoying to figure out. Have to use a diagram each time to figure it out.

[@brendan8114]

at 47:00 stephen should have 3 venture triggers, not just nadaar, the angel sees any non-toekn creature entering his field as the creature that stopped etbs was gone

[@Jerexify]

Man, Stephen is NEVER going to NOT submit a stinker deck again. The one time he tried to play nice, and everyone crapped all over it. lol

[@jeffrau2349]

Yeah "playing nice" submitting a Chulane stax deck. Interesting rationale there.

[@Jerexify]

@@jeffrau2349 Well, nice as in not an obviously bad deck. Like, he didn't resubmit the chair deck again. Lol. Not nice as in fun to play against...

[@corrosivecabal]

0:00 Justin and Jonathan in unison "Well, I'm not changing!"

[@mattisuber222]

Great episode, very funny throughout. In classic stephen fashion, salty about his randomly chosen deck right up to the point of him winning with it, lol. Tough break for Jeremy for the deck he got, and tough for Justin for the way it played out. See y'all next week!

[@GHSTKamiKaze]

33:17 idk if they catch it or if it matters but Jon should have paid 2 for the Bojuka Bog trigger because of the Strict Proctor

[@Kyle_Outrage420]

Hell yea my hapatra deck. Here comes the relentless contagion

[@mjjdj88]

“I think that’s from Pokemon” in response to Jeremy’s Spirit Bomb explanation 😂😂😂

[@josephdowler9344]

Love the content guys. Thank you

[@rei336]

Cycled decree of pain was my favorite play of the game. Wow

[@jamesmedina4407]

Lovin that Banding deck.

[@Bammab127]

Stephen forgot a few ventures with radiant solar

[@DatPaulGuy]

I thin Director Dan should make a deck for the Colliseum of Randomness that only gets put in on the very last spin where there wouldn't be one normally

[@Ricardo-zo1ti]

Can you attack on a band with one banding creature and 2 other creatures? I thought you could only have one extra

[@wintersmonologue]

Same. I thought it was Creature with Banding may choose 1 other target attacking creature without banding to "band".

[@Bl4eberry]

"Any number of attacking creatures with banding can join together with up to one attacking creature without banding" yeah only one creature in the band can be without banding

[@SS4Legolas]

Sadly that earthquake was illegal. The venture needs to be played at exile. So he would not have had the mana for earthquake from combat damage from gnawbone.

[@AgonalRhythm]

That's bc Jon reached over onto his board and gave him the treasures right away

[@kingfuzzy2]

How generous

[@AustinMerfeld]

I was told there would be a link for the T-Shirts, but I don't see it in the description.

[@samsimmons1100]

I think Jonathan missed a Hapatra trigger when Carnifax Demon entered the battlefield. 121.6. Some spells and abilities refer to counters being put on an object. This refers to putting counters on that object while it’s on the battlefield and also to an object that’s given counters as it enters the battlefield

[@samsimmons1100]

I think it might have mattered, too. He would have had one more snake on the ETB, and then gained an additional snake when he activated Carnifax Demon’s ability. That would have resulted in two more snakes dying when the earthquake/poison tip archer interaction occurred. Instead of Stephen being at 3 life on the last turn, he would have only been at 1. He couldn’t use city of brass or pay the two life to equip without dying.

[@AgonalRhythm]

Jon breaking the two-headed giant backfired yet again... 😔

[@samuelgardner2653]

Also, technically Stephan wouldn't have been able to Earthquake, because he used treasure he got from Gnawbone's combat damage based ability, and the Mad Mage cards came off of the Paladin's attack trigger. Perrroooo like... *shrug emoji*

[@paulhodges7398]

This. The whole game pivoted on a play that couldn't happen, sadly.

[@justchillin5031]

Well Steven was living his best life at the end there lol

[@jacobmoncher6193]

47:10 - Just checked Scryfall and there is an 8 mana dragon in the AFR commander precon - Bogardan Hellkite 6RR sooooooo…………

[@sandman423]

That was a spicy Ending.

[@tylortube]

y'all didn't play with banding right.

[@Kyle_Outrage420]

Seems like jon really enjoyed this deck

[@swakage13x]

Also this is the third time Steven has won using a five color Dragon commander deck

[@kingfuzzy2]

Happy to see my favorite tribe do so well ( :

[@mathmagician5990]

I don't want to subscribe or hit the bell because Commander VS is the only thing I watch on this YT channel.

[@Alejandrodemontana]

Classic John, killing everyone and losing. Awesome.

[@tikazombie37]

I remember learning how to play mtg with my uncle's old cards, and I learned the hard way how banding works I'll end up making that banding deck just to annoy people at the gamestore

[@JudgmentDragon25]

All the games I seen currently, John and Steven are always the last two remaining, and everytime John is so close to winning, but Steven claims victory. So close, yet so far John lol. XD

[@skykur]

Nice deck building, jeremy

[@zackerypolz9292]

Waiting for the day Stephen brings back chair tribal for coliseum of randomness.

[@kingfuzzy2]

I like the sound of that

[@megaman161]

Or Ladies Looking Left tribal.

[@nobodycris]

Went ever Stave Green wins is a good day !!!

[@papaflowers5726]

Jeremy's face at 55:57 that guy wants to win

[@TyranitarStudios]

#teamParnell, maan that mana screw was terrible, the beginning started very promising getting chulane and all ): C*vid Kyle cracked me up xD and watching stephen playing that dungeons deck immaculately was great!

[@megaman161]

Justin: _Gets Chulain_ Fails to draw any lands whatsoever Justin: ಠ_ಠ

[@Kajemby]

Is it me or does Jon and Justin look like a wrestling tag team?

[@kingfuzzy2]

Not just you

[@americanmaniac8836]

Can someone tell me what card jon played to stop the sphere of annihilation please?

[@matthewraadmae6195]

Jon needed to pay 2 for the bog.

[@barnstorming4535]

the vrondiss precon comes with 1 8 drop dragon

[@leet9548]

As it is said, "being at one life is fine as long as your opponent is at zero"

[@megaman161]

The only Life that matters is the last one.

[@Bammab127]

Wouldn't bojuka bog do nothing because of the proctor?

[@Seriouscqc1]

You guys should do a secret commander episode. It’s like secret Santa where the person after can choose or steal a deck

[@kingfuzzy2]

I'd love that

[@jabiluss]

1:27:44 Justin only gives 15 pings and I don't know why I counted lol

[@scifoncra6376]

man, Green being all moppy again? god damn, dude.

[@dominusanimus5726]

These decks are freaking hilarious 🤣

[@thomhitzelberger7876]

I am not understanding why did Stephen put the Bag of Tricks in graveyard?

[@quithe]

I have a banding deck that works most of the time but first strike only works if they all have it and the same for all abilities like flying, trample, and double strike. So the other Odric is better.

[@lordvel_1412]

Incorrect, the only time you "loose" the key word is if you band with evasion keyword like flying and not all of them have flying as you can block the non flier. The way the first attack from Jeremy worked is correct you would get to assign the 1 first strike damage from the 2 powered band

[@GrandDungeonDad]

Best part: like I was a homeless person living on the street and i told you I needed help and you gave me a cardboard box to sleep in” “Well Steven did you have a box before?” “No” “Well sounds like I was benevolent then.”

[@Triforcer]

Tiamant has a nice winning streak on commander vs right now

[@BaconSweats]

Is it possible to have someone there that actually keeps the board state correct? Stephen didn't have the mana to cast the earthquake which completely changes the outcome of the game.

[@lracseroom8286]

Stephen Green: Dominant Heel Champion is better than anything in pro wrestling right now.

[@tomcadden8054]

Thats it confirmed, the D&D set is the best commander set in the game!

[@blueeyedenvy9715]

43 mins in, fantastic deck building skills lol

[@DarkPikachuYTV]

47:04 actually Nicol Bolas cost 8 mana

[@k9commander]

Nicol Bolas is not in the Forgotten Realms. There is only one 8 cost dragon printed in AFR/AFC and it was a reprint that Jeremy left out of the deck.

[@DarkPikachuYTV]

@@k9commander but was really talking about what Steven said that there were no 8 mana dragons at all

[@k9commander]

@@DarkPikachuYTV In his deck/Forgotten Realms. Context clues are important. He knows there are 8 mana dragons. There are 12 of them in MtG. None of them come from the Forgotten Realms, which is where every creature in his deck is from.

[@ckeiji]

Epic game! GG gents

[@johanandersson8252]

Don’t break the ”Bandwagon🎢”

[@swakage13x]

Just because the deck box is a specific color doesn't mean the deck that's inside the Box should be that person's deck because let's say I spun and got a Redbox but inside the deck was actually one of the Decks that Steven put in kind of like how we all used to do it with the numbers because that was true random this is just like oh you have a 25% chance of pulling your own deck knowing that it'll be in the specific color

[@andrewe7381]

Four volumes for the mics was such a distraction. Johnathan just couldn't be heard without the other three blowing out the eardrums

[@Olympian05]

Ok I'm making a prediction, one Green doesn't win because he has gotten eaten on this random and John is going to win. 8:15

[@Olympian05]

I was close...

[@Thatpaterboy]

Was it just me or did the video quality seem a bit off this episode?

Jeremy lied there's 2 8 cmc creatures since he said he was including the commander set cards as well Bogardan Hellkite and Ashen Rider

[@atk9989]

Lying and being wrong are to different things. He may not have specifically searched for 8cmc creatures so he just didn't see those two. Or just over looked the dragons cmc. Lying means he knew for sure there were and said there weren't, being wrong means he forgot or didn't know there was.
