[@paulfrie3261]

To be fair, Josh kills half of himself a lot due to fetch land and tomb. And the 2/1 unblockable went a couple times his way. Josh plays risky a lot which is fun to watch (like how he self milled himself A LOT; which jimmy won by finishing by milling the last of the library)

Yup. Could have killed him and left back blockers for the rest. Surprised he didn't make that decision, although he had to think ahead to how many buffs he'd be getting with his Felidar Retreat. Edit: Right, he didn't even need to "leave back" blockers, because Felidar Retreat grants vigilance.

"i'm not gonna count the damage" says josh, when he probably could've killed D with an alpha strike, and then only taken the unblockable 2 the next turn.

[@jasman1000000]

yeah, he had 37 damage on board, he would've dealt lethal.

[@nicholas8739]

Yeah, it was a little weird, but was probably just to showcase all the decks. It definitely would have been tight still, imho. The power and value that Jimmy was generating was getting to the point of being able to zone in on Josh pretty strongly.

[@gavinli1368]

Definitely true. Cause if you don't have creature removal, player removal works too. But as was said, it's nice to show off all the decks and prevent a feels bad moment knocking someone down almost from full starting life.

[@obesedoggo6930]

[@thechubbletelescope]

[@ff7hero]

I feel like D would have had a better chance if he'd made an alliance with Josh after his 'alliance' either made no effort to take Josh out or attacked him instead of Josh. Given how things ended, it didn't matter this time, but it might be worth talking about. On a positive note, I loved that Mage Slayer animation!

[@dcw8284]

I'm with you his "party" chipped in a bit but really relied on him to take Josh out. If he had made an actual alliance with Josh right in Josh's moment of need I think he could have won.

D's party: Did 2 dmg to josh and destroyed sword of feast and famine.... and did 7 dmg to D. And played greater good. Yeah i would have contracted josh to take out at least the player who hit me just from spite and given him no dmg till last 2.

To be honest, and not to be an as*hole, I thought she was making weak play and bad decisions a lot. Maybe not as an experienced player as the other 3. Also, her deck was really weak.. Party mechanic is baddd

[@cronchable]

I actually thought that wasn't the worst idea. If she'd done it in combat, Josh could have used Akiri's ability in response to make her indestructible. Using it in upkeep means he doesn't really get to do that because it would tap her and deny him the ability to attack.

[@cronchable]

@@Hellspeller You're assuming quite a lot here, pal. One game is really not big enough of a sample size to judge the strength of a deck or its pilot. And even if it was, she didn't do many plays that were objectively misplays? Just because you preface a sentence with "not to be an asshole" doesn't make it less harsh.

I love how "only one may stand' was just a one-off comment by Jimmy in an early episode but it's now a tradition

Jimmy and Josh in the podcast: How common is it to have more than 3 creatures with different types under your control? Commanders with attack trigger are so hard to trigger Game knights episodes:

[@CUATROMORCE]

EXACTLY WHAT I THOUGHT!

[@ComfyDents]

Yes, but there was not even one sweeper. Those change the development of a game.

[@scottstephens18]

Gandalf der Graue True , they barely play board wipes or grave hate anymore. Makes commanders with tougher stipulations easier to trigger.

[@Gab8riel]

It's true though

[@CUATROMORCE]

@@scottstephens18 i don't think they do it on purpose. I've definitely seen the board wiped regularly over the course of the last EPs

[@mattnivison8566]

This was one of the most intense awesome games I’ve seen in a LONG time!! Great episode!

[@mightyone3737]

So, that was pretty cold blooded at 11 minutes, when Josh just takes a dump on the entire deck idea of an opponent. Just cold, man.

[@supernoodles908]

The final rounds were pretty cold blooded :')

I dont think anyone thought party was good, it did pretty well considering

Pretty sure she didn't even think Party was going to be any good...

[@exprime8872]

I think it was intended as criticism of the party mechanic, not her specifically.

[@TheKamenZero]

21:55 Uhh... did Josh just use a Mountian to produce white mana? I don't recall him having any kind of mana fixing on the board... ((PLZ no bully if I'm wrong, thank you.))

[@krisdaschwab912]

Yup, I saw the same.

[@Otto-Silva]

I was going to comment about that.

[@CUATROMORCE]

Well, at least they're gonna have something to talk about at the roundtable :D

[@HeirophantCarneus]

Wow, he said he "taps 2" conveniently leaving out what mana was being produced. Sneaky!

Hats off to Josh for not just crushing his opponents when he clearly could have.

[@reactivatedyt9788]

Yeah he could have full swing at D and took his flying problem out really quick. Content though! 😂

[@aktonkulous821]

Josh: Boros is the worst color pairing in EDH. (flashbacks to Firesong and Sunspeaker game) Super explosive first few turns this game. Josh is clearly lying to us all in an attempt to keep the most powerful color pairing all to himself!!!!

[@jacobjensen7704]

And yet he still doesn't play the color very well.

[@SkyreeXScalabar]

Wow Carol such a backstabber, Josh wasn't dead yet and she turned on her teammates

[@SatieGnossienne]

She was just momentarily persuaded by the Rogues in her party...

[@EKKO_godz]

Bjørn yah but like after backstabbing she was still hoping D would kill josh. If I was D and it wasn’t being recorded, I woulda let Josh live and win

[@SkyreeXScalabar]

@@EKKO_godz I felt like that was a perfect chance for Josh to politic his way back but he just gave up by pinging himself

Yeah, it was really a bad move from Carol.

[@commentsfromthefuture3421]

You guys need to make a sword made out of the card “Dub”

[@Rensonius]

I love the lay out more in this one then the previous ones. It makes it easier to read the cards and follow the flow for me.

[@Toasty25000]

First time watching a Game Knights episode, all these animations are absolutely bonkers!! Love it

[@smithervitts7569]

Jimmy: "This is good! We have two brand new players at the table, but they all know what the real threat is. And it's not me for once!" Literally Everyone Else: "For once," Jimmy? Sure man. Let's just team up against Josh 😂

[@angeloromaz]

21:55 Did Josh cast "Sram, Senior Edificer" with one colorless and one red mana? lol Good Game Knights btw uwu

[@leonmadrigal560]

Let’s see that in round table I don’t see anything that creates the white mana the way he played it. Well unless it’s an editing issue no chromatic this time. Because he says pay 2 instead of using colors.

[@DreadedEnding]

Leon Madrigal he literally tapped the shock land

[@seanrackley4582]

At least he grabbed the correct land with the fetch unlike Craig

[@leonmadrigal560]

Jake Poundtown yeah but he tapped that at the time he cast the mindstone and he said I tap two for mind stone

[@orgazmo686971]

Yes...technically - but he tapped 2 white sources for the mindstone. Chances are he did it right the 1st time, then they did a 2nd take and that time he tapped the wrong things and that's what we see. He very much had the capability to get the Mind Stone and Sram out though.

I can understand not paying it if the player had an overall bad game and letting them draw out of pity, but unless you need every last mana you have and the Rhystic Owner is tapped out, there is no reason for you to not pay it, it's 1 mana.
