701.31b Monstrous is a designation that has no rules meaning other than to act as a marker that the monstrosity action and other spells and abilities can identify. Only permanents can be or become monstrous. Once a permanent becomes monstrous, it stays monstrous until it leaves the battlefield. Monstrous is neither an ability nor part of the permanent’s copiable values.
A card that has been cast for its escape cost goes to its owners graveyard. You can repeatedly escape the same spell as long as you have the cards to exile, which is why underworld breech is such a strong card in cedh
So when u get the initiative you go to the undercity. But if u already on another dungeon. You just go to the next room on the current dungeon. Because u cant go to two separate dubgeon at the same time. Its also aplied if you were on the undercity, you just go to the next room whenever you "venture to the dungeon"
For future reference, you can only be in one dungeon at a time, so gaining the initiative progresses you through the dungeon you are already in by one room rather than also entering the undercity. Wouldn’t really have affected the outcome in this case, but worth knowing! Also Angel of Finality couldn’t have exiled Eilidh’s graveyard because she had protection from creatures, so she wasn’t a legal target. Now I feel like I have to say I love the show, it really feels just like going to my LGS to hang out and play with whoever is there!
Also with pathlighter out and hitting two players she ventures twice. Then the initiative triggers on her upkeep specifically after gaining the initiative.
@@deadhothead and she forgot the radiant solar trigger when pathlighter enter the battlefield. So basically it was cast of radiant solar, into the last room of the dungeon draw, sefris brings back pathlighter which has enter on ETB because of radiant solar. Attack for two triggers of pathlighter and and then gain the initiative to finish off the dungeon again on the same turn.
I play a Sefris deck, and my god it's so incredibly easy to miss venture triggers. The sequencing of triggers on the stack is honestly maddening, especially when you start completing multiple dungeons a turn while still having Venture into the Dungeon triggers on the stack. Becomes very Solitair-y.
I don't know if it's the banter, the energy, or just everything but I'm really starting to love this channel. Also, Olivia's white girl rap/hiphop is the definition of on point.
Great game and as always I love the camaraderie ☺️ congrats to the winner 👏. As for my guest... I'll say Kyle Hill. Kyle explaining magnets to the professor is a must watch 😂
Love the channel and this episode. As a big Sefris fan, I was thrilled to see you play it, but I think you may have missed an early combo win at 53:50. Once you get radiant solar on the field, you would get extra venture triggers every time a creature hits the field (you missed a few). The combo win would need you to have a sac outlet, but I’m pretty sure you had access to one in your graveyard. If you had your clone come in as a copy of the radiant solar, used the “take the initiative” trigger to keep plugging through the same dungeon, pick up the venture triggers from your attack, and from your mulldrifter, I believe you’d have enough triggers to recur and sac karmic guide and any other creature to loop the dungeon and kill everyone with the life loss room.
Not true. Any player or permanent with protection from some identifier, i.e., "protection from creatures," means that _creatures_ may not target or deal damage to the player or permanent that has protection. Which means that as long as a player has protection from creatures, they cannot be dealt damage from creatures, even if the damage isn't targeted, since protection reduces the damage dealt to 0. Example: Klothys, God of Destiny. Situation: I have protection from creatures; you control Klothys. If Klothys is a creature, I take no damage from his ability. If Klothys is only an enchantment because you don't have devotion, then when Klothys would deal damage, my protection from creatures does not apply, despite the damage never being targeted (i.e., "deal 2 damage to each opponent.")
Great game! Love this channel so much. Also, escape spells don't exile themselves after casting, only the cards in the graveyard as part of the cost, which is why Uro and Underworld Breach are such broken cards. But also, Ashen Rider exiled the escape card I believe, so it was actually correct.
First of all, your channel is great. Love the videos, lots of laughs and silliness, really great guests. Also want to note how cool it is to see MTG youtubers who are parents (or parents-to-be.) I am a parent of two young kids and I definitely spend more time tinkering with decks and watching channels like yours than I do actually playing the game, and it's nice to see that other people doing this thing are making the most of it while in a similar stage of life. Keep the fun alive!
I have both a oona deck that I've had on and off since I started playing commander, with a hand painted full art alter. And I have a captain n'ghathrod theme deck, themed after davy jones from the pirates of the Caribbean.
Great video as always ladies! I'm loving Olivia's slow descent into madness (or burgeoning rap career, you decide). As for theorizing the surprise guest, there's way too many options! Both Alias and Olivia are so prolific in the Magic community. My heart hopes for the Prof, but it wouldn't surprise me if it was Gavin Verhey or Josh Lee Kwai.
My very first magic deck that I learned how to play magic on was mill. It does my Dimir heart happy to see not one but two different styles of mill in a commander game. What about the Professor as your guest on the next show?
Hello friends, reminder, HIT THE THINGS THAT MAKE THE DINGS. Also if you're going to commandfest Indy keep a look out for me, I'm a menace. Great game Y'all
Great game as usual! Cheers from Argentina. Btw, when you target Phantasmal Image with Victimize, while on the stack you have to sacrifice PI due to being the target of a spell. This causes that when Victimize resolves, there is no valid target for sacrificing and thus are not able to revive them 2 creatures;)
I noticed that Alias ventured into 2 different dungeons because she got the initiative but actually that's not possible. Venture into the dungeon actualy says "advance to the next room or start a new dungeon if you're not in a dungeon". The initiative almost has the same wording, only it let's you go into the under city if you are not in a dungeon. Therefor you cannot have 2 active dungeons. Probably it didn't matter, but just a heads up for future games 😉
I just built a full dungeon/initiative/party deck with sefris nd it is surprisingly fun to pilot! Last time I played I copied Radiant Solar with Sakashima the impostor and completed something like 10-15 dungeons of the mad mage in a single turn (went from 46 cards in the library to 9 before managing to stop lol)
Mind Flayer isn't bad. Roil Elemental is bad. I run it in my Aesi deck. Also, absolutely love the amount of mill in this game. It warms my cold blue mill heart.
Not going to lie, I actually pulled Roil Elemental from my Tatyova deck, it just didn't make sense to run it when I could just replace it with the wildly better Flooded Shorelines, which people find much harder to remove (and can go nigh-infinite, if not infinite if I have a cheap enough creature to play, who doesn't want a Simic deck that just combos off?), and if they remove Shorelines, they don't get their mana/resources back, their stuff is still bounced.
Did you see the things??? Do you like the things? We want to do that every week BUT need a little extra support to pay for these! Please consider becoming a patron so we can make nice things! Thank you friends! ☺️
I like the animation effects! Also, I have no idea if it's the correct pronunciation, but I've been pronouncing his name "Nya-throd" and I won't be taking corrections.
It wouldn't change anything to the game, but Muddstah couldn't target Alias with the Angel of Finality, she had protection from creature with Serra's gardian. I was so sure someone would forget that clause and try to target Muddstah but in the end he was the one forgetting the clause.
Awesome game! Is this the first time you have had those fancy animations for the commanders? That was amaze balls. As for the mystery guest.. I'm gonna say.. Tilda Swinton. She has a really good Kaalia of the Vast deck or so I've heard...
Whoever took the damage from N'ghathrod should have milled 10 cards because haunted one bumped it to 5 and mindcrank doubled the n'ghathrod mill trigger
AliasV: 🤔, how do I kill Muddstah? Muddstah: AMA! That's real friendship. Ok, so debut of special guest that isn't Post Malone. Hmm, ok, I'm going to go with Ladee Danger.
We all knew my mom's dementia had reached the endpoint when she started forgetting about Dre. Am I the super secret guest? So secret that not even I know I am going to be on the channel? 😂 In all seriousness, I am guessing the Prof.
I am DEFINITELY encouraging a Kickstarter campaign to fund Valley Girl Rap--Olivia Gobert Hicks pays tribute to all things "Ass Tribal" in the styling of White Girl at Walmart!! 😀👍 Seriously, taking a guess that y'all got Joe Manganiello?!
Oliva dropping heat on street, she like cooking meat on a tilt, she can be a mom to your son and dahs , if they act out they get a time out 🔥 🔥 bars off the top
they should bring back banding for the luls haha! fun fact about Tasha's hideous laughter. the actual ability in Baldur's gate is nothing like the card in MTG at all.

Muddstah has the most calming voice in MTG. Listening to him describe a game is always good!
He’s one of my favorite content creators.

I'm still waiting for Olivia's album to drop!
Fun fact, I knew none of the songs they were singing XD
@@EDHijinks u got to be hip?call me SpongeBob, making Krabby patties I go work ,screaming what he doing (cat daddy, cc cat daddy) old school song
That Richard kane ferguson playmat is hot..

I hope it's Melissa deTora, she's just delightful.

Yes, it does also trigger on upkeep, but you venture when you take the initiative as well

For real. once Radiant Solar gets into play, deck go brrrr.
I don't know if it's the banter, the energy, or just everything but I'm really starting to love this channel. Also, Olivia's white girl rap/hiphop is the definition of on point.
Oona has always been my favorite commander. I was SO happy to see Olivia was playing her!

Short note: when a Player has Protection from creatures je cann‘t be the Target of triggered abilities from creatures like Angel of Finality
Yeah, we spotted that in the edit but it ultimately didn't affect anything thankfully!
Not true. Any player or permanent with protection from some identifier, i.e., "protection from creatures," means that _creatures_ may not target or deal damage to the player or permanent that has protection.
Which means that as long as a player has protection from creatures, they cannot be dealt damage from creatures, even if the damage isn't targeted, since protection reduces the damage dealt to 0.

If Klothys is only an enchantment because you don't have devotion, then when Klothys would deal damage, my protection from creatures does not apply, despite the damage never being targeted (i.e., "deal 2 damage to each opponent.")
It is indeed 2022, that mill you like is going to come back in style.
19:28 broke me too 😂 that was delightful I was not prepared.
Great game! Love this channel so much.
Also, escape spells don't exile themselves after casting, only the cards in the graveyard as part of the cost, which is why Uro and Underworld Breach are such broken cards. But also, Ashen Rider exiled the escape card I believe, so it was actually correct.
@@williamriven I meant exiling the card that is escaping after it hits the graveyard. That's the rule that was in question
So much positive energy and laughter in this episode!
You are doing awesome work!
Oh my goodness! Alter Sleeves Sponsorship! Let’s hope EDHIJINKS makes exclusive alters! 😉 😉
39:08 Olivia say “beef.” 😋
I guess Gavin Verhey as the special guest
Beef sighting!
You ladies have so many fun games on the channel. Lexi and Muddstah are great guests, too.
I love Olivia’s call-back to “every mechanic is kicker”

Love that trostani deck, I did the same thing when I upgraded the Ghired populate precon!
14:37 As a child I asks my father why baby animals were almost universally cute and he responded "it's their defense mechanism." You go, Ali! 😁
I was working in the lab, late one night
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
For my monster from his slab, began to rise
And suddenly to my surprise
Ha HA! First person to notice 😋
I'm going to guess the Shuffle Master himself, Arin Hanson
I had the Trostoni Butt's deck, it was amazing. My playgroup quickly learned how fun Reach of Branches is. 😁
I could Google, but what the heck is that??
I have both a oona deck that I've had on and off since I started playing commander, with a hand painted full art alter. And I have a captain n'ghathrod theme deck, themed after davy jones from the pirates of the Caribbean.
Enjoyed seeing how effective mill can be
That was sefris dream matchup lol. Normally that precon out of the box is held back by not being able to fill its graveyard fast enough.
Lexi is hysterical! 🤣 Gonna have to go find more of her stuff.
Love the animations keep up the good work
As always wonderful. I've love this channel since I first saw the "cause" series. It's only gotten better and better!
Thank you Brandon! Much appreciated!
I didn’t know you played a game with MTGMUDDSTAH! This channel just became my all time favorite.
Great video as always ladies! I'm loving Olivia's slow descent into madness (or burgeoning rap career, you decide).

yay, my favorite weekly commander nonsense!
Production value continues to go up... Ss well as Olivia's chaos energy! Great game as always!
I would like to guess Ladee Danger. I don't think those GK ppl can go on other shows though.
My very first magic deck that I learned how to play magic on was mill. It does my Dimir heart happy to see not one but two different styles of mill in a commander game.
What about the Professor as your guest on the next show?
Fantastic game! Loved seeing my favourite mill cards. Bravo!
Scammer. Uncool.
Hello friends, reminder, HIT THE THINGS THAT MAKE THE DINGS. Also if you're going to commandfest Indy keep a look out for me, I'm a menace. Great game Y'all
Great game as usual! Cheers from Argentina.
Btw, when you target Phantasmal Image with Victimize, while on the stack you have to sacrifice PI due to being the target of a spell. This causes that when Victimize resolves, there is no valid target for sacrificing and thus are not able to revive them 2 creatures;)
But the Sacrifice part of the card doesn't target. Only targeting is the cards in Graveyard so I believe we did it correctly.
I noticed that Alias ventured into 2 different dungeons because she got the initiative but actually that's not possible. Venture into the dungeon actualy says "advance to the next room or start a new dungeon if you're not in a dungeon".

Theros block was my intro to magic! Monstrous is a property of the card, it is not linked to the counters. Also it doesn't use the stack! :D
I don’t play Magic(yet) but this exactly how I envision myself playing Magic!
Oooh a pre-welcome to Magic, friend! You're in for an awesome ride!
The energy in this game is great!
Not paying the one is "forgetting about Dre"
shreikmaw is so cute. i love that axolotal snack boy

How you miss the 'can I kick it?' set up before she kicked that spell?
Just picked up the sefris deck, very exited😁
Olivia will never, at any time, learn any lessons from anything, ever.
Okay but like, where’s Olivia’s valley gurl album? 👏👏
whoop whoop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You both are awesome! I hope you get Rachel Weeks, she's hilarious and always a good guest.
We've had Rachel on a couple times! Go check out her episodes because you're correct, she's hilarious!

omg I wonder if the guest is my childhood neighbor! That would be wild
Muddstah! This was an awesome game!
Yeah when she said magics favorite mechanic I was I thinking she was gonna play a horsemanship card like Sun Quan, Lord of Wu
If you already are in a dungeon when taking the initiative you just go to the next room.
Who knows cloning stuff can be this fun? Mom's or cloning machine 😆...thanks all moms out there
I love gifts my birthday is coming up July 28th
Whoever took the damage from N'ghathrod should have milled 10 cards because haunted one bumped it to 5 and mindcrank doubled the n'ghathrod mill trigger
Thumbs up for the Valley Girl Rapping :)
Angel of Finality shouldn't have been able to hit Alias's graveyard as it says target player and she has protection from creatures, right?
Right! We missed that
I'm gonna go with Sheldon Menery. Oh, or the Prof. That would be Gucci!!!
Do people still use Gucci?
I use gucci regularly!
Special Guest: Gavin??? That would be sweet!
AliasV: 🤔, how do I kill Muddstah?
Muddstah: AMA!
That's real friendship.
Ok, so debut of special guest that isn't Post Malone. Hmm, ok, I'm going to go with Ladee Danger.
Yeah kudos to Muddstah for the suggestion!
Kyle hill is the mysterious special guest
I need this album.
My guesses are Cassius Marsh, Jimmy Wong or JLK
i like the commander card showing
A free-ranged MtgMuddstah/Andrew 🤨
... like a chicken?
The dream is to a good magic card gamer like Olivia 🙏
*guessing* I can’t wait for the guest appearance from Richard Garfield!!
Trostani Compleated *shudder* 😧
Olivia and I have the same commander for mill decks. My rationale: exile > mill
I have no idea who your guest is but you should have Davy from NeoRoyal House of Pricey Cardboard on.
My guess is Jimmy Wong and/or JLK!
Ooh is it the Professor? Or maybe Gavin?
is the guest going to be gavin verhey or mr infect craig from game knights??
Btw u also miss alot of radiant angel trigger each time creature etb "its a lot of trigger" lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Totally did lol. I didn't read the card properly 😂
I'm gonna throw out a wild guess and say it's Ben Brode.
Gaea's Blessing is auto include in any green decks for me at this point. 🤣
I click on the vid and immediately click the like button coz you guys just don't miss 😎🤘❤️
Heck yeah! Thanks Jack!
9:29 Imma guess, bouncing a card back to someone's hand?
Lol awesome to see everyone's favorite generic goblin making some generic goblin noise .
Is it going to be both Ben Brode and Brian Kibler? That game would be spicy in so many ways. :)

did Alias miss radiant solar and midnight pathlighter trigger ?
Half time who's going to win,don't kill the guest , we would love them come back ,
they should bring back banding for the luls haha!
fun fact about Tasha's hideous laughter. the actual ability in Baldur's gate is nothing like the card in MTG at all.
THL is just laugh your ass off right? I think my Minotaur Barbarian got hit with that once.
Oliva choose violently, she made milling a win con in edh .then everyone play the fish,don't that mean we all win
