Commander Gameplay: POST MALONE v Crim v PurplePuffin v Blackneto | MTG Commander Gameplay ep 14

[@jasonballantyne3021]

Hey friends! Joe and I are so grateful for your continued support. Heads up, one of the cameras was still overheating. But about 10min into the episode, the room finally cooled off and the video is super smooth after that. Again, not your internet, just REALLY warm room causing technical chaos. Appreciate you all!

At some point your going to have to take that camera behind the shed.

~34:00 for anyone curious you can in fact exert a creature after its been exerted that turn, and the exert effect will stack for the same next untap step making the second exert effectively free

Mistakes were made. Note to self, Post will "notice" after the fact and get everyone to be okay with it. That's some mastermind game play there.

[@tripline0072]

This is for Post, I don't know if it has been addressed yet but banding allows you to assign combat damage dealt to your banded creatures how you see fit instead of your opponent doing so. I hope this helps.

[@jlyxxy8]

Very fun game to watch! Crim and Posty are some of my favorite magic players! But things got a little hairy towards the end. When Joe sacrificed the creatures to the Phyrexian Alter, Posty should have gotten them due to It That Betrays. In addition, the saprolings blocking the It That Betrays were supposed to all be 3/3s (due to Tendershoot and having the City's Blessing), so they shouldn't have all died, so Posty may have lived a bit longer. Still a really fun game to watch though!

[@jameelkurabi]

Weird. Don't see It That Betrays on his moxfield. Wonder if he swapped it out for something else.

[@xBakesale]

Pretty sure you can exert a creature as many times as you want in a turn as long as you find a way to untap it. Great video though, thanks for the content.

[@rok8204]

yep, but not in the case of combat celebrant which states: if combat celebrant hasn't been exerted this turn

@28:40 yup. Been wondering who was gonna notice for about 20 minutes LOL

Post Malone is coming to Pittsburgh. Wish I could play magic with him. When the sacrifice card is played Dina should have been sacrificed because it states each player.

@@TabletopJocks just as a btw for next time It that Betrays can only take non-token permanents (so food tokens are the best thing to sac to the annihilator trigger) Also when you sacrifice those creatures to phyrexian Altar It that Betrays would have taken them since Teferi's Protection doesn't protect your graveyard and it that Betrays' effect doesn't target anyways :)

High friends, love the content. Just wanted to let you all know that you can exert a creature twice in one turn. This came up around 33:15.

[@kevinchamp9722]

701.39b: A permanent can be exerted even if it's not tapped or has already been exerted in a turn. If you exert a permanent more than once before your next untap step, each effect causing it not to untap expires during the same untap step.

[@Rated314]

BANDING: Basically, banding is stack blocking. Any number of creatures with banding and up to 1 creature w/o banding can team block an attacking creature. During damage dealing, instead of the attacker assigning how damage is distributed, the defending player determines how to distribute the damage. Example Attacking player declares attack with a 7/7 Blocking player declares block with seven 1/2 creatures w/banding Without banding... the attacking player could assign damage to kill three defending 1/2 creatures. With banding... the blocking player could assign 1 point of damage to each blocker... meaning none die.

[@jasonballantyne3021]

So it’s blocking with a smirk. Nice!
