Hot take: if Meathook Massacre 2 didn’t have the “Meathook Massacre” name it wouldn’t be anywhere near as hyped as it is

[@caljam82]

If you’re talking about the etb, over the coarse of a game I think it can be just as if not more scary. It is true that it can’t go into as many decks

[@burnsboy101]

Scalding hot, your on the sun mate

[@Shimatzu95]

I dont think thats even a hottake. I hate it on principle since it reminds me a bit of tegrid but powerwise? If you use it as removal you probably dont run enough already for it to be useful.

[@johnnamkeh1290]

You mean you understand the reason movie execs only want to make sequels rather than original stories? You're just part of the joke now :p

[@devinmarvin3920]

Also. I hate the name. It should have been called "The Meathook Extermination" or something else like that. Meathook massacre 2 is a lame name.

[@erichunt1974]

Decently excited for Duskmourne. It looks like there are cards that can slot their selves into a decent chunk of my decks! Marvin, Murderous Mimic is a must add to my Krenko, Mob Boss deck! I've been meaning to add some upgrades for a short bit.

[@Ghost-Toast819]

Meathook masacre II is best with something like blasphemous act. Play it for 4 and then board wipe for a major turn around

[@paulszki]

Doomsday Excruciator -> Mesmeric Orb comes to mind play Orb and Excruciator . If your opponents have no response, everyone will be left with 6 cards in library -> start their turn, untap step, where they're likely going to untap 6 or more permanents, have an empty library and then fail to draw a card in the draw step -> game over.

[@Chucklepuffs]

Well mesmeric orb triggers on upkeep when you untap so wouldn’t they mill, then draw and lose?

[@Chucklepuffs]

That’s actually kinda nasty, a buddy of mine loves mill and I can see this happening lmao but I see you said following draw step, duh, my bad 😂

[@paulszki]

@@Chucklepuffs Yeah, that's what I meant, I was just really bad at explaining it properly. They untap 6+ permanents i their untap step, then go to upkeep, then drawstep: fail to draw a card -> lose.

[@Chucklepuffs]

@@paulszki got it! Love that! Good idea

[@zanderfus2723]

No response? That sounds totally interactible

[@oxybe]

Occulus is an incredible card and great reanimation fodder since everytime you manifest, one goes to the feild and the other stocks up your graveyard. Sneak it in early for consistent bodies on and off the feild.

[@chrispydesign585]

17:08 Pretty sure because of layers that Opalescence will not allow you to infinitely sacrifice Enduring Vitality (or any of the Enduring Enchantments). There are two effects that are attempting to modify the types of the card, so the latest in time stamp would apply.

[@riotxcore6108]

THIS! I came to post this exact thing!

[@ZeIose]

This is correct.

[@0jutai]

A card I’ve not seen talked about much is Nowhere to run. Nice cost at only 2 cmc to give a creature -3/-3. Flash gives it nice versatility, and on top of that it turns off Ward and Hexproof! (Not shroud though) For a 2 mana investment I really like the utility you get out of it.

[@biostem]

Arabella and Dollmaker's Shop are going straight in Anim Pakal. Slam dunk.

[@gabrielkopp9248]

I’ve been considering Anim Pakal for a while, but haven’t quite gotten to the point where I’m interested enough to build it…want to pitch me on it and/or share a decklist? 😃

[@biostem]

​@@gabrielkopp9248 She's a blast. I mean, she is at base a go-wide tokens deck, so if you already have one or two of those (playing with Impact Tremors effects), she might be redundant, but among token decks, I really like that she brings artifact synergy into the mix, and that she's intensely aggressive. She gets out of hand very quickly, and in my experience, fills a rare slot as true aggro in commander. With a budget build you can start to threaten wins very early. That doesn't mean that she's overpowered - you'll catch a lot of removal, but the pressure she can bring is awesome. She kind of feels like a Krenko or Markov to me, but I like the way she functions and her artifact interactions much, much more. It's probably suboptimal, but I also run Soul Sisters and lifegain synergies because I like them. I don't have my list online anywhere, but I'll probably put it up on Moxfield soon. There are lots of great builds there though.

[@fr3ddiefir3ball49]

I've got anim pakal in my zinnia. And Arabella on the way.... oooooh boy lol

[@Durtaz]

Feels like everyone I know is talking about House MD. I don’t know why it’s having this resurgence, but I won’t complain. I’m a fan!

[@g1stylempdesign929]

My wife started doing Factor Meals and I will say every dinner item was on point! The Parmesan Chicken, the pork chop all taste super gourmet. Seriously, if you paid for a dinner out these dishes that were just microwaved to temp taste better. Good stuff

[@joshuacostigan4119]

A fun side note on Tyvar is the ability will compound. So being a 3/3, two activations at 10 mana total will give you a minimum of +9/+9 for a team

[@SergeiMosin]

Arabella was basically custom built to be a commander with Delney in the 99. Toss in a Roaming Throne, Ojer Taq, and a token engine and you've got a filthy, filthy deck

[@skinyapples76]

Split up seems so good in goad decks wow

[@Beckola44]

Split Up will work so well with two different white cards that I have. Arabella is insane and so is enduring Vitality. The lands in this set are almost like Duel Lands. Some of these cards are cheap. I will wait awhile for some of these cards to drop in price. Thank you for the video Mia and Beezy.

[@bijanae]

not the moxfield jumpscare 💀

[@NitpickingNerds]

GOT EM

[@SergeiMosin]

I kinda want Abhorrent Occulus to be in black instead of blue. I'm not... overly thrilled with the exile 6 effect with the card as presented. It's... good enough in very specific situations, but it needs a recursion engine bolted on and if you can build at least a semi blue aristocrat... it would absolutely shine in that deck

[@simplyyunak3189]

The common dual lands will be a staple in pauper, since they are the only dual lands in pauper that can enter untapped

[@Shimatzu95]

I somehow missed that 😅, well in pauper edh they go.

[@mq8858]

I'm a big fan of that doll, she looks like a crazy strong aggro that will actually work in commander

[@Great.AnotherChristian]

"Taunt from the Rampart" to goad everyone into "Split Up" on your next turn!?! Yes please!

[@obadijahparks]

I don't know what your kickback is, but 50.25 through your link should help. I had to come all the way back through KZbin for you guys..... btw card kingdom is pretty good for older foils, but newer stuff can be really expensive. Good to see more options.

[@stormscrappegaming3923]

At least for my gix deck I would want to draw a ton, discard cards with gix, then cast doomsday excrutiator, then use something like cranial archive to shuffle my graveyard into my library

[@RunninOnYT]

I am really surprised that Walk-in closet // Forgotten Cellar wasn't on this. It seems so good.

[@SilverBlack831]

I'm realizing, long commander games are usually so because of board wipes. I've stopped playing them for that reason. But maybe cards like split up are cool because you can slow down someone going wide, or even big, without restarting the whole boardstate

[@Dskinny23]

I've been waiting for this since you teased it in the precon video. Best factor ad simply for cat lines in the ad lol

[@NitpickingNerds]

Amber is so helpful sometimes

[@alaricfyffe2732]

split up seems like a card that wouldn't be all that great by itself but if you pair it with funeral room in a lifelink deck it could wind up being destructive you could board wipe all your creatures in a pinch late game to finish off an enemy

[@CharlesW3113]

I wanted to point out the meathook massacre II in the Aminatou precon deck will come down as X=2 for only the 4 pips! Seems like a great synergy.

[@christinrobbins837]

What about Marvin? Combos with a ham sandwich. So many brewing options.

[@paullloyd9331]

This set is so cool. Great list!

[@NitpickingNerds]

There's a LOT of new stuff to try out

Meathook massacre II: electric boogaloo

[@0jutai]

[@JustinNovack]

Mothman might want Abhorrent Oculus, but it already has enough win cons. And Doomsday Excruciator will still be "splashed" like Invoke Despair was, don't you worry.

[@brett5569]

Love the dance Gavin dance shirt! Quick unrelated magic question for Mia. Favorite DGD album and favorite DGD singer? Mine is mothership and Tillian

[@NitpickingNerds]

My favorite is Instant Gratification and tbh I'm so excited for the Andrew era since he's killing it live!

[@brett5569]

@@NitpickingNerds great choice! We own the night is still one of my favorites. I definitely am curious to see the Andrew era.

[@bpchongo-.-]

Meathook 2 seems good in the new squirrel deck if you run the convoke tutor dragon (can’t remember the name lol) it gives the spell exiled with it convoke so maybe board wipe with all your tokens out

[@Pariahmary]

Scarecrow support has been long overdue. Kinda wished we had gotten more, but the legendary ones are nice.

[@diegoperezsommariva2509]

Arabella, Abandoned Doll is a dream come true in my Pia Nalaar, Consul of Revival burn deck.

[@yesimchar]

[@hioeo]

Verge lands are NOT better than the surveil lands. Surveil lands are fetchable, apply for Domain, allow you to look at the top card of your library, set up a reanimation target or a flashback card while getting it out of the way for something potentially better, they don't hurt you on ETB, and can come in on an opponents turn allowing you to use it on your next turn. Surveil lands are my favorite duals WOTC has ever printed. The Verge lands are extremely good, they always tap for mana, don't ever come in tapped, and gives you access to a missing colour if you are flooded on one. They're good, they don't do as much (for a player such as myself) to be called "better".

[@Blacklodge_Willy]

Oculus fits perfectly into Sefris of the hidden Ways!

[@guyyoung4388]

Into the pit is going in right next to bolas citadel

[@rickbezoski682]

Into the Pit will work just like Experimental Frenzy.... awesomely

[@NitpickingNerds]

Boooo lol

[@danielhavens8819]

"man Krosan verge is so cool but the cycle is incomplete, I sure wish they'd print more Verge lands!" (monkey's paw curls) jk these lands are very nice and I'm glad we have them now. still wish they'd finish the Krosan verge cycle tho :/ also I'm interested to see if they'll not only print the enemy version of these lands but also the "counterclockwise" version, i.e. taps for green always but also red if you control a forest/mountain.

[@Shimatzu95]

Same here with krosan verge. Don't think it would be that powerful even but they probably just want fetchlands to stay expensive.

[@pretty_fly_for_a_jeskai]

I am absolutely in love with Jolly Balloon Man.

[@Shimatzu95]

I literally wanted a boros etb commander forever now. Closest before was probably duke uldor from dnd and a partnerpair with livio or a background with abdal adrian.

[@Zoekende]

Did you see Prof's latest build your own precon deck? He has it as the Commander for that build.

Waltz of Rage seems good in a Prosper deck

[@stfinalwrath]

If you just reanimate Doomsday Excruciator then you get a cheap 6/6 that draws you an extra card every turn.

[@dangeroussecondaccount893]

True, there’s like always better reanimating targets though

[@stfinalwrath]

@@dangeroussecondaccount893 Oh for sure lol. I'm not necessarily saying it's a great target, just that it's an option that is probably on average better than losing all but 6 cards from your library. My reanimator targets are things like crypt ghast, razaketh, kothophed, Vilis, etc. Usually some big impact demon or some kind of busted ramp or synergy piece.

[@dangeroussecondaccount893]

@@stfinalwrath ooh okay yeah that’s valid

[@hanschristopherson8056]

New meathook is great with plaguecrafter effects

[@paulszki]

Also a lot of people are missing that you can just play it for 4 and forgo the xx. (Though it's been mentioned in the video.) I'd rather just play this turn 3/4 and follow up with a plaguecrafter, like you said. The said part is of course that you can repeat it unless you can get rid of the finality counter. There's ONE commander who does it: Fain, the Broker. He's got "tap: Remove a counter from a creature you control: Create a Treasure token." That will let you get at least one extra trigger in.

Into the pit will be amazing for Strefan. Easy to sac blood tokens
