That puppet is so cute

I miss mana burn

God i miss mana burn

The stupidest rule ever

The amount of psychic damage i just took.... Well done sir lol

We love a convoluted damage setup. Also, Wotc should totally bring back mana burn, for like a month for the bit. And would love to see your history on Transforming permanents!

Subbed and liked for the puppet....and the info

Sadly your wrong. Sol Ring is in very deck so because everyone has it it’s not an unfair balance to the game. If Mana Crypt was reprinted to high heaven and bundled with every pre con then it wouldn’t have been banned.

Commander deck = your commander, a sol ring, and 98 other cards. I fucking hate Sol Ring. I hate it.

I hate to be that guy, but not every precon gas sol ring. Painbow (Helmed by Jared Carthalion) does not.

Sol ring actually was on the reserved list for an extended period of time from 1996-2002 to be exact.

I think it probably has to do with price. The banned cards were pretty expensive, while Sol Ring has always had a pretty stable supply and is therefor very reasonably attainable for the average player. On a separate note, while I don’t fully agree with the bannings, I do get why they did it; The cards were too strong to be in such little supply (which is to say, so expensive). I would’ve personally preferred they’d just printed more cards and made them more accessible in a tournament legal way (so, not proxying) but alas, Hasbro saw money and probably never would’ve done that to begin with. I feel like these bannings should be a wake-up call to people that pieces of cardboard from a game will never be a solid, reliable investment but as long as there’s money to be made I don’t see anyone stopping tbh.

Listen, I get it, but the difference between sol ring and mana crypt is basically just 1.5 life each turn. I don't understand banning ramp in a multiplayer format where games last well into an hour, while most other formats, a 15 minute match is considered long. All it does is accelerate the game. And you need a balance between your ramp, draw, and synergy. Ideally, your commander synergizes with ramp or draw, or both. But banning cards that basically just allow players to play janky decks, is forcing the meta if you want to be viable at your table. Ban broken cards, not ramp. I will concede that dockside was a good ban. It was abusable. Less so with mana crypt and jeweled lotus

It's also in almost every precon to ever exist, so there would be a grand total of 2-3 that you could grab without it and not be playing a banned deck, therefore causing the company to lose one of its highest profit margins........... or maybe it's just a mascot 🤷‍♂️

Stupid. Every argument for the other cards being banned applies to Sol ring. If 1 card is so good it has to go into every deck then it needs to go.

It will be there because it always has, is an argument you can use for any card. I don’t care if it makes every commander precon illegal out of the box. Out of principle, if mana crypt is banned then sol ring should also be banned.

So its the mascot...but mana crypt was expensive and chased for several years and printed...now they just scammed us

Command tower, sol ring, arcane signet. The tent poles of every commander deck

Not as powerful as moxin? It is equal if not sometimes better. The reason why people always downplay it is simply they are used to it casting lower powered cards. If people played with moxin in mid to low powered decks it would have the same effect on a game.

I feel like countering sol ring should be an illegal move just for morale reasons

And I never feel bad for the mill player

That’s a ridiculous goof loop. 😂

Lemurs yeah

How do you give a boost that big and not add trample? I’ll just keep playing Garuuk’s Uprising than.

I wish this video was the exact same thing but with jeweled lotus ... And mana crypt.

Graveyard hate shuts it down completely with cards like rest in peace

True, there have been a surplus of graveyard decks. However, Leyline is and has very rarely been the answer I these decks. It just doesn’t do what you need a graveyard hate card to do, and with the excess of 1 mana cards that much more efficiently handle graveyards, Leyline of the void just doesn’t have a spot in the sideboard anymore, especially when you consider the flexibility of things like Nihil spellbomb or soul-guide lantern and the requirement to run 3-4 Leyline of the void to fill the role that 2-3 relic of progenitus or similar fills

Mad props to the art team for keeping the Lemure art and running with it. Many decades of fun because of it. 😂😂

Does it work with evoke? Isn’t evoke just an alt cost?

I really want that card now just b/c of the flavor text

Fun fact, lemurs are actually NAMED FOR lemures, as their faces resemble skulls and Lemures are spirits of the dead in Roman mythology.

I think this would be fun for convoke because you’re not technically paying Manna. You’re just tapping creatures to pay the cost.

What a fun video! Thank you for an entertaining story my good man 👊🏽

I love that card, the new aminatou precon is so fun and powerfull

I love how all the lémures reference each other after hyalopterous lemure, genuinely the funniest thing I’ve seen

I have no clue what is going on but the acting sells it!!!

Love the video. I’m glad you talked about altanak in Living End. I think you might be sleeping a bit on ghost vacuum. It hitting atraxa from goryo or what not then getting to play it yourself later for its etb is so crazy.

Dredge is still one of my favorite deck archetypes

My ninja deck is eating good with this new set. Even if it is only one card.😊

I remember when Amulet Titan became meta. I jsed to run Amulet of Vigor in all my Commander decks cause it was cheap and allowed me to have budget manabases. Then the card shot up to like $30 overnight and i was finally able to afford good manabases.

So glad to hear that eldritch moon is the best, one of my fave sets lolol

And this is why rule 0 exists. If your pod is fine with it you can still have them

I’m happy they got banned

Ruh roh

Bro fuck this cringe content, card still selling at around 45, WOTC has nothing to do with that, just get over it.

Let's face facts No one saying sol ring coon or reacting this way has ever touched a tool in their life 😂

If I had a nickel for every time a 1UG creature broke multiple formats instantly 3 years ago, I'd have 2 nickels. Which is 2 more than should have happened. Doing it now, I have 3. If it really is a coincidental mistake it's one of the most hilariously stupid design mistake coincidences in history.

I mean at least you can play Uro in Commander, playing him as a Commander is kinda janky but he can be played somewhere unlike Nadu.
