On theme then!

@@goochtheotaku good luck! if not, the new Kykar from Foundations is a decent bird.

@@joshsykes3670 thank you! Means a lot to get some positive feedback.

Second?

@@sothen3308 you have won a fantastic prize for your vigilance. Allow 6-8 business weeks for arrival.

@@ryanfuller7308 same. Sadly this box was missing all of them!

@@armyofkittens7107 😂 so true

@@masktail thanks, that was my intuition, but glad you clarified for me and any who watch!

Thanks!

@@carlwilliams1340 🔅🦴🔒👎 Is that accurate?

Also, as of 10am, congrats on winning the collector boostie. Send your deets to rule0podcast@gmail.com

@@Mavryck_Tha_Myghty hey, thank you! Nadu was replaced and the birds were sad. I actually replaced with a Mana Vault I had, as Derevi can untap it easily. Probably not the best replacement, so I'll keep an eye for some interesting bird-themed stuff.

@@Rule0Podcast - Ooo, mana vault. Now there’s an idea! I can very much appreciate a tribal-like deck tech. Very cool. I hope you make an updated version if you replace a good percentage of the cards. Cheers, and thanks for the response. 🦉

@@Boomerang556 I’m sorry but “what did you expect” is quite clear that they should’ve known what they were getting into, which, as JLK, knew about the death threats means that was a part of the calculus of that statement. Problem is that he didn’t do the math and rather made that statement in anger, not out of logic or thought.

@@jasonwhisnant5457 Well several creators including prof have said they have received death threats for less. They honestly should have expected a potentially violent response. That might be a hot take but any sane person would think the way this was done was poorly planned and pointing that out is not the same as condoning or supporting the violent behavior. He and Jimmy both said they could have told them that would happen. It really shouldn’t have been a surprise. Receiving death threats isn’t a get out a criticism free card and criticizing them isn’t victim blaming. Obviously death threats are bad and shouldn’t happen. It’s just obvious!

​@@Boomerang556 it's a lot simpler if you look at this like a math equation. Player X makes death threat to CRC member. CRC member is the victim. Player X is 100% at fault for making a death threat. JLK, in the heat of the moment, stated that CRC member shoulders some of the blame; they should have expected a death threat AND made a different decision based on this. That argument took blame OFF of Player X and shared it with the CRC member. That's victim-blaming. The victim is now "responsible" for the death threat. This is the same exact equation that plays out when a victim of rape is told "well, you shouldn't have dressed like that. What did you expect?" It takes accountability away from the perpetrator. That's not what you want, I hope, but know that there's a mountain of people victim-blaming the CRC, saying "well, you shouldn't have worn that dress."

@@jasonwhisnant5457 thank you so much for comment and for doing the work! My imposter syndrome part is pretty loud, but I'm getting to the point with enough practice where I feel confident enough to teach or share.

@@armyofkittens7107 thank you for the kind words; hoping to bring more of this type of content (with better sound) particularly when hot button issues arise

@@joshsykes3670 it and Cheap Ass are the best of the Ass cards IMO.

@@carlwilliams1340 an absolutely glaring exception that I didn't bring them up, so I'm glad you did! I've watched many an LRR pre-release but not so many sketches of theirs, which is probably why they slipped my mind.

@@Blissful_Bash thank you so much! Always happy to hear advice or thoughts. I have a manic energy that I occasionally tap into just to keep box openings funny for me.

@@Rule0Podcast I would say for your box break videos here on TH-cam just try to get that camera zoomed in a little more to really bring out the cards :) and maybe a light stand, maybe you have one I just can’t tell in the video. Overall, amazing energy! Not many of us have it but you definitely do! My wife joins in on my videos from time to time so it’s exciting to see your significant other having just much fun as you!

@@Blissful_Bash all good suggestions! We were using a high tech plywood box with no light, but I bet we could get something cost effective. Just to be clear, Charla is a friend. We're both happily married to other folks who maybe balance out the weirdness we enjoy letting out at the D&D table or in improv box opening.

@@GamersHauntAVL even if few watch it, it was definitely more fun than any I've done. And having fun does transfer to a good experience for audiences, right?????

💯 I knew there was some 80s box art that has a toilet front and center!

I have my D&D Cube List - cubecobra.com/cube/overview/kek1 I'll ask Taylor to see if he has a commander cube up.

@@joshsykes3670 of anyone's looking for a chimney sweep or street urchin, I've got them covered.

@@carlwilliams1340 so long as one is on the stack, it's oozin' time

@@joshsykes3670 nooooooooooo

@@sothen3308 of course! Gotta teach the youth about ol' Ruhan/Sheldon

@@Garudahell thanks for the comment! Matt (owner of the deck) prowls these comments some times. Maybe he can update on how he's been doing with it

@@Razdasoldier fair concern. Just to let you know where that title comes from- it's the rankings on EDHrec. Alania is LOW in rankings in terms of Bloomburrow legends. Flubs with 1557 decks made, for example, but Alania with 223. It's not a knock - I still love the deck!

Yeah, literally not been able to get my hands on any cards yet since bundle, booster box AND precons have been sold out at my usual store I order from.

Well 2 months later, I think we can now definitely say she is underplayed.

@@BrotherMax6 Two more months later and you're still right. I'm currently overhauling my Bria Riptide Rogue deck to make Alania my commander because I decided I wanted less prowess and more spellslinging in my otter commander experience. Not to mention, the fact that you make an opponent draw a card has some fun opportunities for politics at the table

@@mistfortune4675 not officially ... HOWEVER, the rules committee released a big statement today saying that they're working on a big project to go through all un-cards and label ones that are "okay" for play. I don't know if they'll officially sanction, but they're at least revamping their stance on them, so you may be able to play crow storm with their consent soon enough. As of now, maybe try and rule zero it explaining that it's a worse storm card than most.

​@Rule0Podcast crow storm should be legal. They were scared of storm crow when it was printed.

@@jasonandrews1770 though I'm sure it's not great for the algorithm, I love covering underplayed commanders. There are so many fun gems hiding under the obvious ones and precons.

@@Rule0Podcast yeah idk why people are skipping over it. Getting to copy 3 spells a turn? Pretty good
