Yasharn vs Obuun vs Linvala, Shield of Sea Gate vs The Mimeoplasm EDH / CMDR game play

Real talk, does doubling season double the number of shame counters on Rhystic Study?

As someone who took part in this game, seeing how MUDDSTAH magically turned what was nearly a 3 hour game into 29 minutes of content amazes me.

wow, that Obuun deck was a "random card in Naya color" tribal very fun game!

This is what a Commander game should be. Tables turning constantly and a lot of stupid yet good interactions taking place.

Couldn't max use Linvala here to give all his creatures indestructible?

[@imandylookout1278]

@@Highlydangerous13 Nope! Yasharn was out, which prevents players from sacrificing creatures to activate abilities.

Yasharn Spellshaper/Discard for value tribal is a SICK deck!

[@SuperPacMan1143]

This is why land destruction is a viable strategy, if ramp decks exist there should be a counter to them.

[@judsonbates1359]

Mtgmuddstah I love how that channel constantly features obscure but amazing Commanders! Seriously. So much other content is featuring only high powered decks which is just not what I want my EDH experience to be. I love how you mix it up and feature such a cool variety of styles and decks. I have found a couple new Commanders from your videos.

[@TheBalogna7]

This was quite enjoyable to watch. I used to play a Jolrael deck so seeing her do her thing to ruin folks mana-bases is just great. Also, this game showcased the exact reason why Rout is such an underrated board wipe..

[@AffinityForCommander]

Fair play to Max for holding out so long against such a difficult situation! 😁

[@wasf8569]

We have some spicy commanders today!

[@Redfoxe]

This has more lands than a Farmers convention!! Also, thanks for the videos Andrew. Favorite EDH channel .

[@Arcdemon44]

The turn of infinite mana, Oblivion sower and one other creature would allow you to exile your opponents entire libraries off cloudstone.

I enjoyed this game. Got to see a lot of cards I haven't played with in awhile. Better yet I applaud Nick for being rude with Jolrael

[@BobbyBev95]

That Yasharn deck was so awesome. Would love to see a list

[@kvistegaard]

Always nice with some Memeoplasm plays, hopefully that starting hand won't bite him back! *edit This was a drawn out battle lol, went in a complete different direction than expected at 10 min in. Not every day you see a Commander game with this many turns :P And that Warp World lol... this truly was a game of surprises! Will have to finish watching later :D

[@MTGMuddstah]

It was LONG lol. This took me three days to put together.

Three days!? That's impressive! Thanks for your sacrifices in getting us this great content 😁 I watch religiously as I can only play once every week or so with my friends

[@rteishe]

That game was nuts, lol. So many wipes, so many reset buttons, so much chaos. The kinda of game that was fun to watch edited & narrated on KZbin, but was probably a brutal slog to actually play in, haha

[@typoholic]

Those were some genuine, 100% jank cards being played by Andrew. Big props.

[@picklesignatz1]

Great Game easily one of my favorites on the channel. Everyones decks performed wonderfully and pretty much everyone had a turn at being the main threat at one point or another. These are the kind of games I like to see.

[@SilHbs]

Insane how that Yasharn deck is resilient. Always having answers to anything

[@gideoncurry4921]

That was an insane number of board wipe style effects

[@Optimator7]

I never thought I'd see a good Linvala deck. So cool!

[@DAsrada]

oh some nice Commanders. I built Mimeoplasm once, and I have an Obuun currently. interesting indeed. Two Lands decks, Ooze tribal, and Party.

What a fun game, animating the lands was genius, loved how you didn't win with the dinosaur, he is always gg in my pod, instead you made it fun. Wp

[@NarffetWerlz]

This was a rollercoaster of a game

[@connorl0204]

I have a jolrael decks and the main goal is to just ramp out like crazy, and either animate my opponents lands in response to a boardwipe or alpha strike the table with a swarm of 3/3 lands. My spiciest play ever with that deck was to cast rude awakening, holding priority to activate nev disk, then activate jolrael to animate someone else’s lands to be destroyed then punch them with all of mine.

[@P4CCHU]

Daaaaaamn, this game was SPICY! I loved it!

[@DarkEinherjar]

Ouch... that Jolrael + board wipe tech was brutal!

[@Karonar]

10:00 Either he Path's the cobra before you sacrifice lands, or it's too late. Sacrificing lands isnt a cost of scapeshift. You choose how many and which you sac on resolution.

[@anthonysanchez7333]

Can you link the obuun deck list? The zacama really surprised me. 😯

[@isa660]

WTF is this. I've never seen a game where both Warp World AND The Great Aurora resolved! That was insane. Nice job editing those two cards with putting all of the permanents on the screen, that must have been a nightmare.

[@gustavomartinsdesouza5548]

Nice, those two games. No wait...

[@InsomniaticVampire]

Great game. Check me but i think @5:28 Max should have created 8 kor warriors which would have drawn him an additional 6 cards from the Great Aurora. This might have been early enough to swing the game.

[@MTGMuddstah]

He did. I think we missed it though since he does block enough cat tokens later to represent 8 warriors.

[@Schiedog]

Longest game ever.... too many board wipes. Luckily Muddstah could always claw his way back. I haven't played a game that long in ages, good times.

[@Rogue_07]

Would the Squad Commander not have made 8 tokens? It makes 1 for each creature in your party on ETB, which should then be doubled by the Primal Vigor (about 5:30 minutes in the video) Edit: later on it looks like Max did make the right number of Warriors, since he blocked all the cats. Sweet!

[@danriemer9724]

An interesting line came up around the 21:00 mark. I think it was questionable for Max to swing lethal at Nick and Martin. Max had Nick’s Yasharn, which was about the only thing threatening to Andrew. The lethal attack forced action from Nick or Martin, but even if the attack was successful it would have only put Andrew at 19 commander damage and then removed Yasharn from the game since Nick would be dead. I think limiting the attack to just Yasharn at Andrew, or possibly just not taking Yasharn with Willbender and continuing to let Nick do the work could have worked out better. Max could have delayed stealing Yarsharn so Nick could have put Andrew to 19 commander damage, then Max could have stolen Yasharn in Martin’s turn and put lethal commander on Andrew before he got another turn. What are your thoughts?

[@frankschirmer9464]

I see him tap out during the combat dialog, is that for the Goldmane or to activate him? If it is the latter, it should be lethal all around.

[@danriemer9724]

Ah that would make sense. I went back and watched again it looks like you’re right. It wasn’t mentioned in the dialog, but he did tap the lands for it.

while some applaud the land wipe savagery i'll say what others are thinking. mass land destruction sucks ass. even more when it's on one player at a time. even worse still when you resort to that shit strategy and still end up losing. making a long game 2X longer by removing lands with no win on board (not even a commandign position in this case) is just stupid as hell and annoying to endure.

Are you referring to my land wipes or Nick's?

[@P4CCHU]

@@MTGMuddstah Probably Nick's. However, I don't think it was bad. Both times he did it ON the player which was in a commanding position, giving himself a chance to take the lead.

[@jlbrooks74]

@@P4CCHU perhaps. But if the only goal is to take the lead position (which didn't really happen) that's what board wipes are for (creatures, artifacts, enchantments, etc.). Resource wipes are a hard setback that take a ridiculous number of turns to crawl back from. It's just my opinion but if you can't find a way to win other than getting rid of opponent's basic resources (aka lands) then you're strength as a player is probably lacking.

[@P4CCHU]

@jeffrey brooks Why would your strength as a player be lacking? You're making the most efficient thing, destroying their resources in order to don't allow them to comeback. Land wipes are salty? Heck yeah. But you can't deny me that is the most efficient destruction you can do
