[@m.rosebarlow7699]

Thank you SO much for making the text in the title cards bigger. This is so much easier to read. You rock!

[@skipbayless4156]

I came to say the same thing. Spike on Wayne.

[@MrTiddles69]

Agreed! Still prefer the old layout but it’s ok!

[@MrGrovak]

Elliot, that was a sick play, whether or not you missed on board interaction, it was a cool play. Great game overall to everyone.

[@TheGrifcannon22]

Alex not believing in giraffe mouths is my new favorite thing. Also, Elliot, I was rooting for you. That was the exact kind of line I would have gone for and failed just the same.

[@l0s_muertos541]

I was not expecting a Big Poppa Pump TNA refference in my CEDH video.

[@brendansample6187]

I watched this after watching a video on a wrestling channel that mentioned the Steiner Math promo. I have never believed I live in a simulation more than now

[@TheHayeShawn]

I legit just had to pause and send to a friend like OMG STEINER MATH REFERENCE

[@WhiteWizard42]

Fun fact: when you copy a spell that can have a variable number of targets, you retain the number of targets (and distribution, if appropriate). so the copy of Turn the Earth could only shuffle in one card.

[@kstandish42]

Alex out of nowhere with the BIG POPPA PUMP copypasta 😂😂😂

[@Shards_of_the_Goddess]

One of my new favorites to name with consult nowaydays is "You are already dead"

[@SylveonSimp]

never heard that one before...

[@EviIPaladin]

Reminds me of using Crossout Designator in Yu-Gi-Oh calling "EvilTwin GGEZ".

[@thomasbondra6108]

Absolutely caught the steiner math reference

[@MarcusJMitchell]

Super Trooper references in any form are always welcome, you should include more, right meow!!

[@heykak]

I have watched all of the "new studio" cEDH videos... I am now rewatching cEDH videos while waiting for new videos... 6 months ago I didnt know what cEDH was

[@raahlunleashed7108]

I have to drive 25 miles for GameGenic products but that's ok. The store is very nice to stop by. My LGS in my town is a great place to play EDH

[@Doug464]

I don't appreciate the nightmare fuel Alex has given me with his talk about giraffes 😂 but that was a good game and even as a non-cedh player it's nice to get a reminder about building a backup plan into your decks in case your main strategy gets blown out so cheers for that

[@chrisbedrin3618]

My current choice for what I name with Consultation is "You Are Already Dead" which seems appropriate.

[@Toomanynames2remembr]

Love Elliot's energy at the end of this episode. Another great game all around.

[@thadrin]

Alex is clearly in the thrall of Big Gazelle with the giraffe slander.

[@jameslamb7197]

The banter in this game was top-tier 😂

[@ericap1098]

Great game! Your humour always brightens my day. My favourite card to name with Consultation is Unblinking Bleb.

[@aeorling]

Alex always has the best shirts!

[@54m0h7]

Awesome seeing Grolnok. I made a deck with him last year and it was pretty fun. It's better when you can Hermit Druid your deck and get the croak counters on everything tho. haha :P

[@TimmytheSorcerer]

Nice energy guys, always enjoy watching the episodes.

[@ariginsburg6228]

I was really hoping you'd go all in with steiner math

[@nickh5302]

The numbers don't lie, and they spell disaster for you at sacrifice

[@alexmcgregor8658]

All I'm saying is you look at me, and look at Samoa Joe and you can see that statement is not true

[@evanprimeau3810]

Here's what I'm not understanding: if Thassa's Oracle was in the deck, and there was an LED in hand already, why not just cast Grolnok with the LED mana on main phase, so that Elliot has every permanent in his deck exiled with Croak Counters, including the Thassa's? Then, no one can mill it in response by targeting the Cephalid Illusionist. Yes, Jan still could've Goblin Bombardmented the Grolnok, but Eliot didn't see that board interaction in the first place to know that, so why go with a strictly worse and riskier line? Even if Jan shot down the Grolnok in response to the Hermit Druid's activation, Eliot would've THEN realized that neither line was a winning line on that turn in the first place, and could've saved his Turn the Earth to attempt to shuffle the Thassa's Oracle back on top in the upkeep of the next turn after attacking/blocking with the Cephalid Illusionist to get it off the field! The whole point of the Grolnok Deck is to activate Hermit Druid with Grolnok on the Field, seems very silly to just ignore a card that would say "Draw most of my deck" in favor of instantly losing the game to the current visible boardstate....

[@lihailaowai1381]

Love my friday morning (in my timezone) Spike Feeders!

[@SamErvin]

What do you mean, giraffes don't have mouths??? 🤣

[@TheSpikeFeeders]

I'm just saying I've never looked close enough to see a giraffe's mouth. - Alex

[@TheSpiritombsableye]

Its tongue just comes out of its throat.

[@aaronstrunk4136]

"I swear to God that i will p!$%*l wip the next guy to say shenanigans...." love the super troopers reference and your content. keep up the great work.

[@jaketri3]

Elliot had a great play and took a gamble on not keeping resilience with his commander

[@oscarperezcame]

Awesome match, as usual!!

[@j.bone.79]

Best part is in the last 20 seconds. I was cracking up

[@hanfjord]

Jerry is an agent of chaos in a good way. Is that what Chaotic Good is?

[@jerry32123]

If I had to put myself on the alignment chart that is exactly where I'd put me

[@literNL]

Elliot, why not flashback the Turn the Earth before draw? You had enough for flashback + Archaic tax, hoping to draw Thoracle, cast it and activate hermit?

[@TSGypside]

I enjoy Grolnok. I run it as a Persistent Petitioners deck to mill myself for value then mill the world.

[@willmilne9210]

8:31 AND THEN YOU ADD KURT ANGLE TO THE MIX

[@SylveonSimp]

Insane line by Eliot!

[@kevinwestermann1001]

Best card to name with Demonic Consultation obviously is Demonic Consultation. P:

[@AgroSquerril]

Good Stuff

[@ajaydassani9931]

I respect ppl who go for insane lines

[@CookiesFTA]

That Super Troopers reference was 👌

[@B1gLupu]

What the hell happened at 16 minutes? How did he expect to do the Soul Caldron combo through a Goblin Bombartment?

[@LadybugDregs]

I feel for you, Elliot. I was playing my Grolnok deck, had Laboratory Maniac on and Canoptek Spyder on the battlefield. I cast Leveler, and one opponent destroyed my Spyder so I couldn’t win on the spot. The next player top decked a Path to Exile and got rid of Lab Man on my upkeep. 😢

[@liamw.1313]

Honestly the grolnok line was pretty sick actually.

[@Michael-s9b1q]

You guys rock! Good game.

[@molicc]

Turn the earth flashback (1G) to get Thoracle back and pay for Archaic (2) not an option?

[@SamuraiSwayn]

Such a fan of the Scott Steiner reference! Lol

[@richardpennertz8180]

The "shop" link in the description is currently broken. It appears to be a website problem since the link from the front page does the same thing.

[@TheSpikeFeeders]

Our shop is currently running a preorder sale to our Patrons, it will reopen to the public later this week when our new dice shipment arrives!

[@hellproof2379]

instead of upkeep hermit activation.. couldnt he just play the frog first.. activate druid.. then play the whole graveyard?

[@shilohartisan]

Eliot you should run Krosan Reclamation as a backup Turn the Earth.

[@daneleong8056]

Thanks!

[@matthewcapaldi]

I always name Godo, Bandit Warlord when I Consult (Zur/Esper deck)

[@falandfriends4760]

There are 2 kinds of people in the world. Futurama enjoyers and people who are wrong.

[@philippvonhulsen8681]

my favoriite card to name with consul is : You are already dead.

[@amarauk9687]

@Elliot isn't there a blue instant with flashback that also shuffles stuff into the library?

[@kevinwestermann1001]

There are three cards. Memory's Journey, Krosan Reclamation and Turn the Earth.

[@GrundysGames]

It's official....Giraffe's don't have mouths!!!

[@crookedknows2889]

My body will never adjust to the new Gamegenic song.

[@hellNo116]

great game to demonstrate why stax are weird in cedh. stax are the reason that jan lost the game and alex won. but in no way helped jerry in this game. once again thank you for the game

[@jakeheathcock9735]

The only time I won with thoracle I named Farwell for the flavor 😂

[@GuyrillaBraun]

STEINER MATH

[@bennos5380]

Really Fun Game!

[@elekkarnai]

Your shop link just props a password entry field

[@TheSpikeFeeders]

Yep we are doing a quick preorder for our patrons. It'll be open to the public in a couple days!

[@Porlakh]

Eliot, love you!, YOU!

[@nesronesro]

27:47 thassa has 3 thoughness

[@thedevilcomes2011]

Sick Episode, really interesting interactions on this one, poor Elliot though, #PayThe2

[@charlesgarr7651]

I was trying to look at your store and it said I needed a password.

[@TheSpikeFeeders]

Yep we are doing a quick presale for our patrons and our oversized dice restock will be available to the public in a few days!

[@ajaydassani9931]

Why did Elliott die?

[@TheSpikeFeeders]

Attempting to draw a card from an empty library loses you the game.

[@justinnicol2158]

went to buy a hat but it asks for a password...

[@TheSpikeFeeders]

Yep we are doing a quick preorder for our patrons. It will be open to the public in a couple days!

[@djfranics4544]

Jan had the win im so confused

[@woopertrainer]

Password to get into the shop?

[@TheSpikeFeeders]

Preorders will open tomorrow with the password released to our Patrons. The full shop update will occur when we have the dice on hand!

[@Sajanis1]

Big misplay!! Thassas oracle doesn't die to cratermaker. Totally destroyed the integrity of this game.

[@iamunnami]

I hate cedh, Just combos no real game
