@@TapTwoCounterspell to be fair she was about to pop the fuck off and the table shut her down with removal. Rhystic and doubling acute triggers who are all also mana dorks? Easily the biggest threat at the time
The thing I love most about this channel is the continuity, not just in players, but in jokes, like the stare Blake gave the camera about the "only" command tower in his deck.
The council of four is such a sneaky card. It appears non threatening but feeds a control plan with chump blockers and card draw and no one feels the need to point removal at it.
The thing I like about consistant playgroups is that playing a silence, and a counter like covert did actually had context behind it in an “inside joke” kind of way! It just shows that this playgroup plays for fun, which is what magic the gathering is all about. Makes me miss my playgroup! Good game :)
37:15 Never... didn't... have it! Revenge never looked so good. Also, "oh, YOU draw a card!?" "Yeah... suck it..." - just some extra salt in the wound. Well done, CGB!
It wasn't nearly the same. CGB telegrpahed it horribly and forced priority to be passed to him. Clearly it was going to be answered before priority was passed to him as mana was being tapped but well... The sweat Lord made it about him as always.
10:18 Just for CGB: Comprehensive rules 103.2 After the decks have been shuffled, the players determine which one of them *will choose* who takes the first turn. Although unusual, if you win the dice roll, you can decide the player who goes first; it doesn't have to be you (It could be Shae, for example ;-) )
Beautiful game played by beautiful people. Love the interactions that occurs when you guys play. You guys just present the perfect playing environment.
This is probably not gonna win me comment of the game but I wanna say it anyway: It would be really nice to see a "non-control" round of the Worst Possible Commander Show. While I do enjoy a good control deck, I would also like to see everyone be able to play their deck for once without a thousand counterspells, pact of negations, force of negations and how they're called. I know they're good cards, but often I come to those videos thinking "Oh, I would LOVE to see this deck in action" and then the respective player eats like.. 3 of CGB's and Blake's counterspells and then the deck is basically non-existent for the rest of the game. So, yeah. Maybe something to consider for the Worst Possible Crew. I don't even know if many people think that way or if it's just me, but I wanted to put it out there. :) Anyway - GG CGB, a great game as always.
True card of the game was displacer kitten, holy moley, what a combo card - I had no idea it could target/protect itself. That was a fun win - love to see the “you win the game” cards go off and actually do a thing.
lol CGB really held a grudge over that Force of Negation. Ben drew half his deck and literally got silenced and shut out of the game and then lost again with everyone else to the Second Sun. It burns!
CGB, your win was as creative as a Muxus deck, as unique as a mono white player in Mythic and as magnificent as drawing 8 lands in a row. Good job! (also, attacking with creatures is better than drawing cards!)
CGB, I remember the days when EDH for you was this outside force that was for some reason affecting your beloved standard sets. I'm always so happy to see you enjoying yourself with this awesome playgroup in a totally different format. You guys have given me plenty of ideas to build around and cards that I wanna try. P. S. One of my friends came to Indy and I asked to get a Yorion or some UW card signed because you enlightened me to the joys of UW control! Good game 👍🏾
Was like OHHH God ben is gonna untap with 43 cards.... Well this is gonna be game over. Then CGB jumps in with a silence. Jesus Christ that was ruthless, and I love it!
I haven't even finished watching this episode yet, but good God, Blake's Powerline t-shirt is amazing and I must have one. Really made him..... Stand out... in the worst possible into.
I did a promo game of commander for the Commander Legends set and used Council of Four as my commander. It's such a fun card that can come from behind after playing all sides.
Stayed till the end even through commercial for more support easily the best Commander group I ever seen and you all are AWESOME and can't wait to see what you do next BUT please never forget everyone you're cool 😎🤟🏽❤️
Mana Drain, Force of Negation, into Silence, into Remand?! Bruh.. the interaction master himself.. I loved how your best plays remained in other players turns.
EDHRECCast was just talking about The Council of Four, I wanted to see how it plays. Pretty cool deck, definitely thinking of trying it out. I've been wanting to cast Peer into the abyss. Crazy card!
CGB has now alley-ooped the "dunk on Blake" role to Ben. And Ben is making no mistake... oh and CGB is beautiful and the only individual who can turn the Beaver Shuffle into such an inspiring undertaking
CGB you handsome devil, you... Great game. Silence was a well timed answer to Ben's shenanigans. I think you guys should get a bucket/garbage can or something for Blake to throw his cards into. Would make a great meme.
"Silence, watch how the sun is beautiful. Soon there will be two! - whispers CGB as Blake finishes Ben" xD Loved the new intro (that used to be the outro but now is better) and good job overall. oh and CGB, you are beautiful (for the chance at the 50 bucks xD)
Always keep good, healthy meme-competitivness balance :) PS: Did you notice it's like Shea's T-shirt knew it's Approach of the second sun for the win? :D
CGB is clearly the ultimate *pushes glasses up nose* AKSHUALLY annoying archetype to play against at the table. Casting a ton of permission magic the entire game and constantly "apologizing" for it and then making people pass priority to him, rules lawyering in a very serious way. And they all have to smile and have fun bc it's his channel. What a sweat Lord.
The Council of Four is Blue just for CGB because its effects, otherwise, are pure White. On a related note: I know in your Alchemy Baldur's Gate commentary video you lamented that Arena Tasha isn't the same as CL2 Tasha but I've had a ton of fun playing a Dimir Control deck with her grabbing the opponent's creatures from their library. Definitely a different deck from the paper version but huge tons of fun.
CGB! It's me! Longtime fan, I drafted The Council of Four at the local LGS and won the event, I've been brewing it ever since, expecting how powerful it could be! Love the videos, as always, love seeing the playgroup have fun. I'm also currently brewing a Daxos the Returned deck, would appreciate any experience you have? Haha get it??
Cool win CGB. I was watching this while working on my new Hinata deck. I'm having trouble deciding on cards that rock with Hinata or just good cards in general. I'm afraid of having too many cards that are straight up bad without my commander on the field. I guess play testing will help haha. I mention this because i know Hinata is one of your favorite commanders too. Love the content my guy.
I play lots of commander games. I'm the monster who never pays for rhystic study, and to date since 2005, I've never lost to the player with rhystic study in play.
Best CGB card was: "OK Blake, u don't target my mana things with ur lux cannon". That midnight clock popping won the game. BTW, have a doubt about mystic remora. It says... whenever target player plays blah blah... so don't u have to target a single player?
The 'oracle' text clarifies that Mystic Remora works 'Whenever an opponent casts a noncreature spell' - one of the many old cards that's been updated to fit modern rules and/or wording. (And one of the pitfalls of commander - lots of cards no longer quite work with 'reading the card explains the card'...)
CGB finally found the tribal-deck which fits exceptionally reasonable for him: Draw-Tribal. The Silence before the second sun approaches is wonderful. Always remember that, even in real life if there is one.
Cgb must be trying to take nicol bolas’s job as arch nemesis villain… winning with approach of the second sun AGAIN! (Approach of the 4th sun??) The man - neigh, salt-god- controls time and space itself, controlling the firmament to place even the suns where his whim desires.
hi CGB and friends, is there any way the volume balance could be better for these videos. some people's voice are too soft, then the others are too loud
103.2 After the decks have been shuffled, the players determine which one of them will choose who takes the first turn. CGB could have picked Shae as the starting player after he won the dice roll.
Is not trying to win the 50 but I knew CGB was going to win to be honest was rooting for him plus been waiting for that commander since CGB kinda did a shadow drop of his commander during his mtg arena game and I love his shirt it pretty cool it remeind me when I seen my first UFO 😎🤟🏽❤️
New rule. Every game that covert wins with blue he has to play the next game without blue.
He is gunna cast his silence on you next
@@phoenixblaze5491 Good thing I don't need to speak to cast! I have a metamagic feat for that ;p
Covert No blue. I like it.
@@kenimrie4977 spoiler comment lol
No kidding.
Shea: I'll be playing *insert commander that has G in mana cost*
Me: ah yes, countdown to Craterhoof has begun
Every time Shea says "pass the turn" without playing a card I cry a little bit
She's generally non existent in almost every game
@@TapTwoCounterspell to be fair she was about to pop the fuck off and the table shut her down with removal. Rhystic and doubling acute triggers who are all also mana dorks? Easily the biggest threat at the time
The look on CGB’s face when he silenced Ben, shows the rotten heart that a blue mage must have, you made me proud Sensei!
“You will love it until you hate it” perfectly summarizes CGB’s approach to torturing opponents
The thing I love most about this channel is the continuity, not just in players, but in jokes, like the stare Blake gave the camera about the "only" command tower in his deck.
Finally finished catching up on the entire series :) what a good episode to end on! Love your work CGB, Blake, Shea and Ben

I read Stephen’s line in his voice haha

Displacer Kitten is such a cool card. There's so many combos it can create and a great value engine for flexibility.
CGB, your win was as creative as a Muxus deck, as unique as a mono white player in Mythic and as magnificent as drawing 8 lands in a row. Good job! (also, attacking with creatures is better than drawing cards!)
Never seen a man get slapped so hard and still be smiling at the end of it. My sincerest condolences for you at this time.
CGB, I remember the days when EDH for you was this outside force that was for some reason affecting your beloved standard sets.
I'm always so happy to see you enjoying yourself with this awesome playgroup in a totally different format. You guys have given me plenty of ideas to build around and cards that I wanna try.
P. S. One of my friends came to Indy and I asked to get a Yorion or some UW card signed because you enlightened me to the joys of UW control! Good game 👍🏾
cgb i'm surprised you still have friends after that classic UW display. These 3 are defo something special.
Was like OHHH God ben is gonna untap with 43 cards.... Well this is gonna be game over. Then CGB jumps in with a silence. Jesus Christ that was ruthless, and I love it!
22:45 the Lux Cannon was already exiled from Resculpt at 19:50. Not that it would've changed the outcome of the game that much, though
I haven't even finished watching this episode yet, but good God, Blake's Powerline t-shirt is amazing and I must have one. Really made him..... Stand out... in the worst possible into.
Just made a Twins deck myself, so very exited to see how this game goes!
CGB needs a t-shirt that says “never didn’t have it”
Never have I seen a value engine go this uncontested. Delicious White-Blue control, and that Silence was perfect!

Ben peered into the abyss but silenced for his visions. Quite the 'I have no mouth, and I must scream' experience
EDHRECCast was just talking about The Council of Four, I wanted to see how it plays. Pretty cool deck, definitely thinking of trying it out.
I've been wanting to cast Peer into the abyss. Crazy card!
Great game! CGB with the mana screw at the beginning but always showing why he is The One in Best of One.
CGB has now alley-ooped the "dunk on Blake" role to Ben. And Ben is making no mistake... oh and CGB is beautiful and the only individual who can turn the Beaver Shuffle into such an inspiring undertaking
Everyone knows what CGB's favorite three words are: Draw a card. But a very close second is: Draw three cards!
CGB you handsome devil, you... Great game. Silence was a well timed answer to Ben's shenanigans. I think you guys should get a bucket/garbage can or something for Blake to throw his cards into. Would make a great meme.
That Kitten/Jewel combo is definitely giving me the same energy as CGBs engine combos from Brawl!
CGB: Silence!
Blake: I kill you!
Revenge is a sweet dish best served cold.
It was really great meeting you at Indy! I’ll never forget that massacre worm play! 😭 ❤️
"Silence, watch how the sun is beautiful. Soon there will be two! - whispers CGB as Blake finishes Ben" xD
Loved the new intro (that used to be the outro but now is better) and good job overall.
oh and CGB, you are beautiful (for the chance at the 50 bucks xD)
Big brain plays all around. I’m curious what Ben was about to pop off with. And definitely curious about Shea’s hand too! Congratulations CGB
CGB recognizing Ben and his devious plan and ALWAYS being prepared with the perfect answer….. SILENCE!!
Sadstone Caverns shall forever haunt you CGB
CGB proves that revenge is a dish best served not cold, but in silence.
Always keep good, healthy meme-competitivness balance :)
PS: Did you notice it's like Shea's T-shirt knew it's Approach of the second sun for the win? :D
SILENCE!!! The Sound of SILENCE. SILENCE is golden. And... The SILENCE was broken. GG CGB!

Every week they call it the “Worst Possible Commander Show” but I swear…it just keeps getting better…
CGB silencing Ben after him peering into the abyss was one of the funniest things I’ve watched in a commander game in awhile 😂
I haven't watched the video, butt going off Commander's Woooooo looks interesting.....................................................................
That was a glorious amount of card draw
I feel like the compleating of CGB has begun... He was an absolute "Nah, you not gonna do it"-Machine in this match..
The Council of Four is Blue just for CGB because its effects, otherwise, are pure White.
On a related note: I know in your Alchemy Baldur's Gate commentary video you lamented that Arena Tasha isn't the same as CL2 Tasha but I've had a ton of fun playing a Dimir Control deck with her grabbing the opponent's creatures from their library. Definitely a different deck from the paper version but huge tons of fun.
Well that was a masterful control win and no doubt - an azorius build to an absolute T. That deck should be named 'never didn't have it'.
CGB: leave a comment because I told you to
Me: BECAUSE YOU TOLD ME TOOOO!!!!
CGB! It's me! Longtime fan, I drafted The Council of Four at the local LGS and won the event, I've been brewing it ever since, expecting how powerful it could be! Love the videos, as always, love seeing the playgroup have fun. I'm also currently brewing a Daxos the Returned deck, would appreciate any experience you have? Haha get it??
You and me, but mostly me are gunna change the world forever! Love Book of Mormon.
That cat flicker is crazy. I wish I had it to build a deck with
CGB getting vengeance for Ben's Pact was the highlight of this video
My card of the game would be the Aven Mindcensor. That was a hilarious play preventing the bauble from searching.
“So you will love it until you hate it”
That counter war though!
Covert Go JUSTICE!
Ben's face when CGB is explaining his deck xD
Cool win CGB. I was watching this while working on my new Hinata deck. I'm having trouble deciding on cards that rock with Hinata or just good cards in general. I'm afraid of having too many cards that are straight up bad without my commander on the field. I guess play testing will help haha. I mention this because i know Hinata is one of your favorite commanders too. Love the content my guy.
Counterspells, Ramp, Draw into Approach. Inventive.
Ben took a moment of silence to reflect on his sins and CGB got his sweet revenge.
I play lots of commander games. I'm the monster who never pays for rhystic study, and to date since 2005, I've never lost to the player with rhystic study in play.
Flicker for the win. Classic CGB
The real ending would have been a Minds Desire with that crazy storm count at then end, but Sun is also quite neat
Lots of cool stuff happened in this one, but that vengeful 'Remand' made me cackle.
CGB winning with lots of blink effects? The Sky Noodle would be proud of the kitten. Purr-rion!
This channel does not condone sexual harassment in any form.
Except complimenting CGB's glorious 0/8 booty.
Only in the world of MTG can CGB use a kitten to beat the world!
My favorite moment was when CGB got his revenge on Ben by making sure he died 😂
Best CGB card was: "OK Blake, u don't target my mana things with ur lux cannon". That midnight clock popping won the game.
BTW, have a doubt about mystic remora. It says... whenever target player plays blah blah... so don't u have to target a single player?

@@danpearman270 I have the "old" remoras 🤣
The second sun has arrived! Praise Nicol Bolas our god and saviour! And take a moment of silence for Ben who did not even witness his approach.
CGB finally found the tribal-deck which fits exceptionally reasonable for him: Draw-Tribal. The Silence before the second sun approaches is wonderful. Always remember that, even in real life if there is one.
For anyone building Council of Four, I highly recommend Psychosis Crawler
Are we just going to gloss over the Powerline shirt, incredible
First time in history a grave titan has been mana-drained!
“tutor for the tutor for the win”
Always amazes me that Blake, Ben and Shea never play much removal in their decks.
Wait does cgb have 2 arcane signets?
Cgb must be trying to take nicol bolas’s job as arch nemesis villain… winning with approach of the second sun AGAIN! (Approach of the 4th sun??) The man - neigh, salt-god- controls time and space itself, controlling the firmament to place even the suns where his whim desires.
hi CGB and friends, is there any way the volume balance could be better for these videos. some people's voice are too soft, then the others are too loud
TIL that Gemstone Caverns is the most painful possible start of game "land-go" play. 😭
Kind Ben is having his origin story 😂
103.2 After the decks have been shuffled, the players determine which one of them will choose who takes the first turn. CGB could have picked Shae as the starting player after he won the dice roll.
I wish I had a friend who looks at me like Ben looks at CGB. Haha
Can we get a game with no counter spells?
How did CGB have his commander out on turn 2?
Shea playing scute while Blake had a kill on site before she had 6 lands hurt me lol.
Justice is best served a month cold
Serious comment: you guys are all so entertaining playing. I know Blake has a YT, and I’ve subscribed, but does Ben or Shea have ones as well?
not yet but we are starting a CovertGoCrew channel officially for the Worst Possible content. Stay tuned for the official announcement and sub/share!
No comments on the win, or the awesome winner, I came here just to say cuddos to whoever put "Urborg" in the title of the video
Is not trying to win the 50 but I knew CGB was going to win to be honest was rooting for him plus been waiting for that commander since CGB kinda did a shadow drop of his commander during his mtg arena game and I love his shirt it pretty cool it remeind me when I seen my first UFO 😎🤟🏽❤️
Ah, azorius value town. No sweeter taste to wake up to
Why is it even a question. CGB playing Azorius! He already won!
Never got to watch live before, my money is on CGB right away because of kitten and jewel nonsense I’ve seen in eternal formats
And it was beautiful
Yay! Best Commander Show!
