We've Waited So Long To Play These Decks | Commander Clash S15 E23

[@edwardgribbins7175]

Edward here… that’s my Council deck 😂 was an absolute blast to watch this, rough not seeing initiative cards the first 60% of the game lol Hope you had fun piloting it

[@thatonedudejake]

Your deck looked very cool!

[@greystrangr]

I enjoyed watching it so much that I am now building it

[@VRanger100]

Gotta give Crim credit. He could've gone Green-White fogs, but he committed to the Mono-Green Questing Beast strat. That's character growth for ya even if it's for the memes.

[@kingfuzzy2]

As a person with two 4 colour frog tribal decks I wouldn't mind it being frogs instead

[@JelloBrand]

​@@kingfuzzy2okay that sounds sweet

[@Jlizard27]

@@kingfuzzy2 what color is excluded? Red? I'm actually very interested in making a frog deck! I was gonna use Tatsunari, Toad Rider as my commander for flavor, but idk if that would just get dunked on. Also oof I know toads, frogs, different, I honestly just saw the card and thought it was so cool, and decided I'd love to build a frog... or frog and toad... deck.

[@kingfuzzy2]

@@Jlizard27 there's only one red non changeling frog morgue toad so I went with witch maw nephilim colours and the commanders are ishai and reyhan because for some strange reason 70% of the 40+ frogs care about 1/1 counters. Tatsunari came out 2 years after I built both frog decks but he definitely would have been a strong contender.

[@light-chemistry]

It’s too perfect that even when Crim is playing mono green he’s still ultimately playing some variation of “how badly can I troll the table?”

[@Crunchatize_Me_Senpai]

And also getting stuck on lands 😂

[@atle853]

Ok who told Crim that trolls are green...

[@hanschristopherson8056]

Crim fulfilling his secret dream of being a mono green player

[@damnjekyll]

Richard: *audibly laughs out loud at Compost* Richard 2 sec later: So we should get rid of that Compost yea??

[@Ragwar]

That's his strategy and mind control game, he says that about everything on the board

[@whaleofdarkness]

Will there be a video with Seth playing Shandalar? He seemed to have so much fun with it on the card market video!

[@MTGGoldfish]

Yes

[@MTGGoldfish]

(There isn't a video yet, but I'm going to make one).

[@whaleofdarkness]

@@MTGGoldfish Great! Really looking forward to it!

[@ODIRGO]

@@MTGGoldfish this comment was more exciting that this week's commander clash

[@AgonalRhythm]

Everyone being astounded about the Gruul graveyard deck has compeltely forgotten how supported graveyards and recursion are in red and green individually.

[@ChinmanPlayCOD]

So glad to see Spike Feeders Selesnya mage Crim sticking to his brand!

[@Jlizard27]

This is the third Rhythm of the Night reference I've heard on this channel, and I've loved every one of them.

[@kingfuzzy2]

It's the rhythm of the night oh yeaaaaaaaah 🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶

[@Shimatzu95]

So crim is playing fogs so he can leave up mana even in mono green, got it.

[@samuelsumuel9683]

When it comes down to it, ever deck Richard makes is, in fact, Birds.

[@acetraker1988]

Richard's question of the Day: "What is the game that takes the most hours to do everything." Star Ocean Till the End of - Time Battle Challenges. You are looking at multiple playthroughts and 1000s of hours to complete. Disgaea D2 is technically an infinite game that has no end...unsure if recent versions of the game are also infinite.

[@benreeve6094]

Loved Connor’s idea for Gallia! Any chance you can post the primer you mentioned, Tomer?

[@MTGGoldfishCommander]

Yes here: www.moxfield.com/decks/_20p0MI51Uia6FP0-tMj9Q

[@STS-qi1qy]

Waiting until a quarter of the way into a game to decide to read how your deck is supposed to function is certainly *a* choice.

[@MTGGoldfishCommander]

Not exactly. I read the part on how to combo and it didn't mention a key card.

[@VagrantKing]

Phil I love Lhurgoyf decks. I just took apart Old Stickfingers to turn it into Indominus Rex Alpha (the new Sultai Jurassic Park dino). I run Umori as companion so no matter what I mill it’s always creatures, so the Lhurgoyfs are always gigantic, and can do silly stuff like play Mimeoplasm copying my commander from the yard buffed by a giant Goyf to draw a ton of cards (or maybe my whole deck).

[@linkai78]

Kind of shocked Phil isn’t playing Embodiment of Agonies in this deck. It gets huge in any multicolour self-mill deck. A seriously underrated card imho.

[@SpecialKail]

Don't let Tomer lie to you. The #FogMeta™ is real. He's literally on tape admitting it to the Card Market guys

[@MTGGoldfishCommander]

That was a deepfake, the Fog Meta isn't real, it can't hurt you

[@SpecialKail]

@@MTGGoldfishCommander this is the second time Tomer has told me something is a deep fake.🤣🤣🤣

[@_claymore]

@@MTGGoldfishCommander of course it cannot hurt you, that's why you cast the fog in the first place!

[@Tristyn_Waterman]

So excited whenever I see Sidisi, she is my all time favorite commander

[@SmokeADig]

Ditto! 🙌

[@everyonesfavorite8238]

Phil’s face in the thumbnail is hilarious.

[@Abzanafenza]

So sad to see Tomer's habit of trying to auto-yield to everything end in despair

[@VinegarAndSaltedFries]

Great game. Fun to watch. Seeing Phil was a nice surprise.

[@henrye3935]

A Commander Two-Headed Giant episode would actually be really fun to watch.

[@luckyduck4084]

Cardmarket actually just did one with tomer and phil

[@Alkhemia8]

They did one a good while ago but mtgo does not support it technically so it was kind of jank

[@stronggreenflame]

Phill: I would have killed you next turn. Richard: the assignment was understood

[@ForgetfulPaladin]

Crim playing Questing Beast is so funny

[@atomskpk997]

"time for another hour" possibly the most true statement Phil has ever said

[@mattdillon8958]

Seth is too busy playing shandalar to be here

[@BrunoCasagrandaNeves]

Crim with the most meta-meta gaming deck ever, such a pleasure to see!

[@FakeDonut]

YES, Tomer, my boy, Gallia is one of my favorite legends since i started, she just oozes joy, the artwork just makes happy

[@tristonshelley96]

phil called that extra hour at the farewell

[@tristonshelley96]

and richard still didnt live just casually added another hour lol

[@WikiED]

Crim was my hero this episode. It also fits his regular gameplay of just draw-go. So funny.

[@lucascoutinho8167]

I saw Richard had a gargoyle in hand and tought it was Stonecloaker and he would win on upkeep because Phil didn't play Shigeki (him drawing trough Great Henge would make Richard draw trough his commander). Sad it was Cloister Gargoyle instead.

[@greystrangr]

NGL I wanna play the Questing Beast deck now

[@moobang]

I see lab maniac and alter of dementia in a goyf deck and it makes too much sense

[@74jtoon]

Tomer putting on a clinic on why you should click the spell you want to cast THEN select your mana, instead of the other way around and accidentally casting some rando card.

[@Sinistra359]

Let's goooo! Clash on!

[@AgonalRhythm]

Phil @1:07:33 😂

[@biggymiggy6408]

I love that tomer came from the hate comment episode where they said he combos too much and misplays and then he misplayed his combo lol. No hate tho

[@greg6538]

As soon as Tomer Gabmle'd I knew he'd discard the Signet lol

[@escapeoke1730]

This week Crim's deck is the kind of cheeky and fun trolling shenanigans I can get behind. A lot of times his trolling shenanigans are cruel and tragic....evil shenanigans.

[@mightyone3737]

A part of me loves seeing Mesmiric Orb, I get to see so many cards from people's decks!

[@mightyone3737]

Not sure if Phil is aware, but foils of 7th Ed are all Black Border iirc, but they're also $$$.

[@BrewersKitchen]

@@mightyone3737 Oh I am very aware 🤩 The 7th edition Compost would be a banger

[@AgonalRhythm]

I feel like Richard missed something by not going into the Tomb of Annihilation instead after the Tomb of the Mad Mage. He's more likely to win via the draining and it takes fewer steps to complete. Trying to figure out how get into the Undercity was a distraction imo

[@hardkenya2820]

council of four really bugs me out, it's 0/8 cause they are 4 0/2 in the same cards, have two effects divided in two parts cause everyone in the council is doing it's part and yet IT COST 5?!?!?!

[@hobez64]

Yeah honestly making it WWUU prolly would've been fair, then the two card draw members get a blue pip, and the 2 knight ones get a white pip

[@alexandrelima2766]

I dunno about fogs but glacial chasm and constant mists are busted and it's strictly correct to always run them in any deck that has a land subtheme

[@damens-xn9pu]

Watching this and seeing everyone manascrewed in the beginning of the game i remember a podcast about Sam Black and his take on how many lands you should run... and everybody was like... nah

[@priorityholder]

Richard this game: Solar, Farewell, auf Wiedersehen, Goodbye!

[@alaraplatt8104]

39:18 ¿esos son reebok o son nike?

31 minutes in, Richard asks “how long is this going to go?”

What did Tomer say at 43:17?

Crim playing mono-green fog is hilarious

[@sirusburningham4521]

What patreon tier do I need to get Crim to say "Clash-On!" everytime?

[@McDodgerMan]

Excited to see Gallia! I’ve taken a few games with a spellslinger angle on her, I wana see this one roll!

[@GamersKollektiv]

Recently got into watching Commander Clash stuff and the almighty algorithm finally recommended me one that's Magic Online. I'm so glad yall switched to doing paper stuff instead of using this. 😰

[@kimberly81612]

Watched every minute for the mono grn win. And it was so worth it... troll god.

[@austinwoodward8829]

1:07:37 Phil "TIme for another hour" looks at time left on the video..that's accurate Phil buckle up.

[@DHGcrimson]

crim going mono. and its green. Where did u find this Crim look-a-like at? how much did u have to pay him?

[@mandielyn0416]

Tomer says “Phil only has one card in hand” and it is Shigeki with a loaded graveyard.

[@atle853]

Tomer: I am smooth brained. Also Tomer: I cant play magic without holding a literal book's worth of cards to read each turn.

I have a Pako and Haldan deck that is all about playing the dog and swinging. My defense from being hit back is having multiple fogs

[@josephpayton7522]

@@josephpayton7522 So the thing is... you start cloning solar with preston by blinking the solar. You get 2 new ones each time with norn out.

[@regail7143]

@@josephpayton7522 Preston says whenever a creature enters the battlefield under your control, if you didn't cast it, create a token thats a copy of it, but its a 0/1 illusion. So, when you flicker/blink radiant solar with preston out, you will get an illusion copy of solar. If you have norn or panharmonicon, you will get two.

On this week of "Punt or Bluff?" Crim is playing mono-green, nothing makes sense anymore. Will Phil's sultai value-pile work again or will Richard bring everyone to the bargaining table only to throw them into the dungeons anyway? Tune-in to find out!

[@necroinsanity2639]

I see Tomer, turn one bluff that he had a basic land with a snarl

[@matthugenberg8869]

Realistically, because that dungeon deck sees so many cards and can infinitely go through the dungeon, there should probably have been a nexus of fate in there to stop you from decking yourself.

If you think about in a more positive way, discarding the card the you searched up with Gamble. A lot like the red Entomb.
