Want to see a real, competitive deck with Tibalt? bit.ly/488D5uf (plus a couple of decks with Thalia/Lurrus)

[@Abdojtj]

suggestion for a future video, as a sort of variation on staple or stinker. make non magic players guess if cards are real or fake, showing them magic cards with wierd rules text on them, and fake cards with the same.

[@pervertesacker7131]

@@Abdojtj I like the idea, but I'd rather see it in a format with maybe younger magic players or magic players that do not have encyclopaedic knowledge. The reason is that I do think if you show weird/fake magic cards to non-magic-players it would be a coin flip each and every time whether they guess it right. With Staple/Stinker they can at least somehow try to evaluate if a card is good based on their limited understanding of the game + hints that the team give them. There's no way one could try to make sense of weird cards enough to tell them apart from fake ones.

[@Abdojtj]

​@@pervertesacker7131 that sounds awesome too

[@tomaszchmura9246]

I'm honestly surprised that no one tried Tibalt with Madness. Perhaps I'm too new to MtG, but it would seem like the obvious direction to me.

[@Abdojtj]

@@tomaszchmura9246 lots of people did. randomly discarding is bad, really bad, so bad that the only playable card with the effect is literally a 1 mana tutor for anything.

[@SkylarPastor]

it's so funny that without the context of previous Planeswalkers, Tibalt just so obviously seems terrible 🤣

[@Falterfire]

To be fair, part of the reason Tibalt was so highly valued was an overcorrection from how often actually good planeswalkers seemed obviously terrible based on just the card text. For example Elspeth, Knight Errant looks incredibly underwhelming but was a Modern staple for several years. At the time Tibalt came out, you could pretty safely guess based on just the card type Planeswalker that a card would probably at least be relevant to Standard even if it didn't end up in the absolute best decks in the format.

[@SkylarPastor]

@Falterfire so like... without the context of previous Planeswalkers? :p

[@Falterfire]

@@SkylarPastor My point is that without context, I think *most* Planeswalkers 'obviously seem terrible'.

I feel like tibalt would be a staple if it just looted with its +1 the random part is rough

[@JohnFromAccounting]

A nice piece of trivia on Lurrus is that it was one of the few cards to get BANNED in vintage. As it turns out, having an extra card in your hand that you can cast with Black Lotus, and then immediately use to recast Black Lotus, was too strong. Lurrus was so broken that it made Black Lotus, the best card ever, even stronger.

[@SyntheticNuclear]

It was banned because you only needed one. Limiting it to one per deck would do nothing

[@neldar1075]

I like the statement that when Wizards released companions, before their nerf, Lurrus was a card of about the same power level as P9.

[@veryblocky]

It isn’t, it’s not even restricted in vintage. EDIT: I’ve just looked it up, it was unbanned after the change to cost 3 to add it to hand

[@SyntheticNuclear]

@@veryblocky it used to be banned

[@seandun7083]

​@@veryblockyit was banned, then they changed the companion mechanic. Previously you could cast then directly from your sideboard. Now you first need to pay 3 to move them to your hand. Literally doubling the cost did a lot to dampen how utterly broken it was, though it's still good enough to get banned in Modern *and* Legacy.

[@jamesaditya5254]

As someone who's rather new to Magic, the idea of Planeswalker is a very flavorful concept. Loyalty is so aptly named, losing some when they take damage because you (the player) choose not to block for them and if they reach 0 Loyalty from taking damage they basically go "peace out, jackass. I'm done with this". Effects that accumulates loyalty for them are like their signature cantrips so you're letting them do their thing, and ultimates are exactly that, an exertion of their mana that will more than likely render them unable to continue fighting but provides a boon for an ally Planeswalker. I think the only slight flavor fail is they are represented as counters in game, so effects that interact with counters like proliferate or doubling season will also affect loyalty counters and the only reason it does is "game mechanics" with not much flavor behind it. But that's just a minor nitpick to what would have been a 10/10 design

[@Futuristic271]

I think it's not too bad of a flavor fail because I see proliferating as increasing the potency of boons or banes on things on the field, so proliferating a +1/+1 counter is further increasing the effectiveness of the buff, so proliferating an allied Planeswalker could be seen as boosting their strength as well. Not totally on theme with the name of the counter but buffing your friend will make them more willing and able to fight for you

[@rheawelsh4142]

The actual flavoring of card types with magic and how they play into different fantasies is one of my favorite bits of the game, sagas and classes also do a really good job at this

[@friesen_m]

[@dramajoe]

I know it bogs down needing to explain formats and all that but I really feel like it does a disservice to describing the power of Lurrus to not mention that it's the only card to ever get a power level ban in Vintage. "So in MTG there's a format called Vintage where the only banned cards are joke cards, ante cards, racist cards, and cards which literally do not work. Black Lotus isn't banned. Lurrus is the only card in history to get banned in that format for being too powerful."

[@DaviRenania]

Racist cards? Huh? How does that work?

[@Demonic0Jester]

how about a format for just the racist cards that'd be a good time

Guess he forgot about it, but either way, he's a champ for a reason (and he might be picking up another YCS win this week after getting one around this time last year in the same city no less).

Well you can proliferate to increase it's power, then you just need to protect it. But having to build the deck around making it work means it's probably a bad card. Unless it instantly wins (which this doesn't really.) At least fervor will most definitely have at least some payoff, Tibalt is just more of a cost to 'maybe' use it's ultimate.

[@Divreon]

Floodgates are known as Stax in MtG

[@kylegonewild]

You were spot-on with Tibalt. He needs to stay around a long time to get real use out of his stronger abilities and the random discard is too steep a cost for such a fragile permanent. It *might* have been playable (and even that might be a stretch) in aggro decks or graveyard decks if you got to choose the discarded card but alas, he is complete ass. Even the next worst 2 mana Planeswalker is lightyears more playable than 2-mana Tibalt and it has a restriction of not being castable for the first three turns of the game lol.

[@DuskoftheTwilight]

My thoughts on each card as presented, as someone who has played a number of card games but never really got into Magic Furvor - reads OK, but my impression of Red is that it already has plenty of creatures that have haste or otherwise do things on play, and if you're doing a multicolor deck, you're paying 3 mana to set up for a combo, which doesn't sound amazing. - Stinker Arboreal Grazer - this is ramp and ramp is good, the question is how does this compare to other ramp cards? I know Magic has one drops that can tap for mana, so how does this compare to them? Unlike those, you need to have 3 lands in hand to make use of this turn one (a forest to tap to play it, a second land to get from the effect, and a third land to play at the start of your next turn or else what was the point?). Under that condition, this is better than those because you get the extra mana every turn going forward, even if this creature is removed, and it can also be used to attack or block or such since it doesn't need to tap itself. Needing to have 3 lands in hand feels a bit dicey but i think Magic players are used to needing to draw lands, so I don't think it's actually that much of an ask - Staple. Thalia - Taxing most cards can cause a lot of problems for your opponent (and for you but presumably you're deckbuilding to account for this), and its a little hard to remove since you need to block with at least a 1/3 or cast a removal spell that will get cost increased. The obvious counter to this is a creature that can hit it for one on play, or any effect already on board that can ping it for one damage, but I'm not sure how common those are. I'm a bit torn on this overall but i think what it comes down to is that if this card was a staple, I'm not sure it would be healthy for the game overall and would get complained about a lot, so - Stinker Lurrus - oh i think I've heard of this one, isnt this the one that got the Companion keyword changed? Oh wait, they're talking about it with the updated text, I think originally you just got to play it for 3 from out of the game right? I think i heard that change killed the mechanic so - Stinker Tibalt - the +1 filters and maybe stages something in the graveyard but the first two effects dont seem amazing and i doubt this ever survived to do the -6, especially if there are creatures on the board to be stolen - Stinker

[@betabrett0223]

should add a fan submitted card into staple or stinker as an extra variable

[@teadeity363]

You should display cards in front of the two Staple/Stinker winners and have them build a deck by picking a card out of the selections, which are Staples and Stinkers and then have them play

[@eq2lornick]

Dude knows his stuff. It's nice that game theory spans across genres. It's also kind of hilarious that a Yugioh player can evaluate MTG cards better than a lot of MTG players. Tibalt was one word away from being a good card. "Random" makes the card infinitely worse. I honestly don't think he'd be all that busted if you took the random aspect away either. I think they played it too safe with him.

[@galaxyboy7060]

The missing context for why Lurrus was broken was that the floor was often that you looked at the top of someone's library and drew an extra card for free every single turn because of Mishra's Bauble, and if you were doing anything other than that it was absolutely obscene But I love that Joshua has zero context for how planeswalkers actually play out and Tibalt on its face *still* seems awful even then

[@BruderSeth]

I tried to reason with myself that Fervor might not be too bad in casual commander.. Which means it's an absolute stinker :'-)

[@AgusSkywalker]

In my Krenko deck I have 4 cards that give permanent haste to all my creatures. All of them are better than Fervor. They all cost 3 mana as well but do something else: - Goblin Chieftain is a goblin creature that gives all the other goblins +1/+1. - Goblin Warchief is a goblin creature that reduces the cost of every other goblin by 1. - Tuktuk Rubblefort is a 0/3 wall creature with reach, meaning I can also use it to block, even flyers. - Rising of the Day is power-crept Fervor. It's exactly the same but also gives my 5 legendary creatures (including my commander) +1/+0 (it's also an uncommon against Fervor that's rare). So given that Fervor is so easily outclassed in a format where it would be somewhat useful, I deduced that it had no chance of being good in a 1v1 format.

Tbh Tibalt biggest issue is that he dies to lightning bolt...(and that the discard is at random). If he either was starting on 3 or you could pick what you discard he would be at least all right. Granted I dont remember If lightning bolt and him were legal at the same time, but one of the check for planeswalkers is, can you survive lightning bolt? If they cant they need to have very good ability since they are better to be treated as one ability only Unles you are Ajani, Nacatl Pariah then you bring so much value that you can die to LB and its fine.

So here's the thing about Lurrus: it's *the only card* to ever be banned in Vintage for being too powerful. Most obscenely powerful cards get banned in other formats but merely restricted in Vintage to being 1-per-deck. But that doesn't help with Lurrus, because the companion mechanic means you're only keeping one copy in your sideboard anyway! Lurrus has since been unbanned in Vintage, however -- and to give you an idea of Vintage's power level, Thalia isn't restricted, while cards like black lotus, ancestral recall, and time walk are all restricted (and can all be re-cast with Lurrus -- in fact, Lurrus recasting Time Walk is a two card infinite turns combo.)

[@MindstabThrull]

I played with Tibalt in Standard. He really wants a deck where his "disadvantage" is less painful than elsewhere - you can't just usefully throw it into any deck. Back then I played Boros Reanimator - excuse me, Boros Resurrector - and probably about 2/3 of my deck didn't mind ending up in the graveyard. My deck originally had two copies and really wanted a third. But yes, in general, it's a Bad Card.
