There's quite frankly nothing more panic inducing then watching an opponent windmill slam a trading post in limited. It's the power of C O M M E R C E.
I just sleepily looked at the draft players and the thought of "so when are you guys going to hire a ben b, ben r and ben g? then make them all play star against each other?" just passed into my head.
To answer a question asked during the last game... There are 4 types of genie based around elements, Djinn (air), Efreet (fire), Marid (water) and Jann (earth).
Not gonna lie, I like watching masters drafts to see splashy rares and crazy power level in individual cards, and this draft set has delivered more on that expectation than any masters set I've ever seen. Some of these packs are just ludicrous.
Thank you. I stopped playing magic last year (living in a country that depends of the dollar makes imposible to play), but watching you is always a blast.
Yaaay Ben (U)!! Elesh Norn is legitimately my favorite card too! It was the first mythic I ever opened when I started playing magic during New Phyrexia and her design is so haunting and beautiful. So amazing~
Elbow touching is worse than shaking hands, you cough into your elbow. Saluting is a great option, a Wakanda salute is also good, a Spock "live long and prosper", or even a basic bow is fine, they all avoid physical contact.
1:56:45 "Sorry, I'm in the tank." Is the kind of thing a person obsessed with military memorabilia would say to their concerned family. I could see a crapshot with two people playing Magic one of them looks down at their cards the camera follow then they look up and the other person is in a cardboard tank wearing a helmet and grease paint. Ever time they look down it gets worse. Plants, war sound effects, and so on. "I scoop. Game 2." The player in the tank is back to normal, but then puts a fish bowl/tank on the table and dons a snorkel.
I ended up getting a Mana Crypt pack 1 pick 4 because nobody else realized it was worth anything, also I almost had a three card combo using Yavimaya Elder, Crystal Shard, and Eternal Witness.
You should probably not pair opposite sides of the table together as you are more likely to get mirror matches colour-wise as that's how a draft should play out. Just so there is more variation in colours.
I missed this on Friday because I was also drafting Mystery Booster. I P1P1'd Hedron Crab and went 2-1 with 5 game wins by mill and 2 game losses. I feel like Kathleen needs to know this is a possibility. :)
Sure wish I could own some Mystery Boosters. I wanted to do a Mystery + Unstable draft with my friends but every store in my town was sold out before I left work Friday. :(
I am looking forward to drafting this, but thanks to Corona I'm not sure if I will get a chance to in the next month or two. I don't play Arena or MTGO, so no MtG for a while. Currently leveling alts in WoW, because you can't catch Corona in Azeroth, though my Vulpera Warlock did catch swine flu somehow.
Very fun games ! The players did a good job commenting plays. Not like some of the Canadian HL - where it is like magic magic magic magic and then i dragons and then .. ohh i scoop...
Turns out that while most people can achieve a six-pack of abs if they exercise, four-, eight-, and even ten-packs are not unheard of. It's a matter of genetics though. You can't grow more by exercising. Although, I'm sure some card would let you cast Grow Beef or something...
"Oh shit, a Chancellor of the Annex, he better take it!" * Takes the 2 mana life gainer instead * Sometimes you guys draft really weird and frustratingly, lol. Drives me crazy.

Thank you
The real mvp.
The existence of a Ben W and a Ben U implies the existence of Ben B, Ben R and Ben G. Show us the secret Bens, LRR.
João Paulo Hengstler
Ben Colorless
@@superduper853 Phyrexian Ben?
How about the mandatory Ben lands cycle.
.......wait
Will there be Benlander where the Bens fight for the right to be the one and only Ben?
João Paulo Hengstler do we get a gold ben and a colorless ben?
Ben B = Ben-Ben, Akki Hermit
First Name, Last Name, Race, and Occupation?
"Vampire, Champion, Vampire, Champion"
"Adam has been dead for seven years" - Graham Stark

ComradeCommunism yeah card is real good
I just sleepily looked at the draft players and the thought of "so when are you guys going to hire a ben b, ben r and ben g? then make them all play star against each other?" just passed into my head.
There has been another Ben on streams, but it's Ben Soileau, and I don't know if he plays Magic.
Add Ben E who can only play Eldrazi
I was able to draft teferi’s puzzle box and chasm skulker. I felt like a bad person
Powerful magic!!!

Thanks to the card reader for the first time I realized debtors knell targets any yard.
“When are they gonna come out with secret lair: colossal dreadmaw?” -Ben Wheeler
I am so happy Wheeler is now a part of LRR
Not gonna lie, I like watching masters drafts to see splashy rares and crazy power level in individual cards, and this draft set has delivered more on that expectation than any masters set I've ever seen. Some of these packs are just ludicrous.
I just love how engaged I am by this content.
Thank you. I stopped playing magic last year (living in a country that depends of the dollar makes imposible to play), but watching you is always a blast.
FRANTIC SERGE! It looks like Serge LMAO
Graham missed his Soul Warden trigger off the eternalized Adorned Pouncer at 39:58
Ben: passes Teferi's Ubercharge
also Ben: - I'l get that Rootporn Defence to goozle Grahm!
Video set!
Food prepared!!
Engagement... engaged!!!
Yaaay Ben (U)!! Elesh Norn is legitimately my favorite card too! It was the first mythic I ever opened when I started playing magic during New Phyrexia and her design is so haunting and beautiful. So amazing~
The Nornites (white mana Phyrexians) are all creepy af and awesome.
Commander players get all wet when they see this set.
I mean Prof and Vince basically called it Commanders Masters
I need to get a phantasmal bear so I can play it and say "Bear is the mind killer"
Never enough of this content! More wheeler more cam more Adam and graham! Nelly and Ben talk about perfect ten!
Thank you for the shoutout Adam!
Cameron Missed like a milllion triggers
7:25 a wild Beej appears...

Wait, how did they not put Foil on the foil sheet? Gross oversight if you ask me.
You guys should totally do Pauper Commander! Its an interesting format that doesn't come up much.
😄"I'll take Woodborn Behemoth!"
😑"Mmmm-hmmm."

That's just a crapshot right there. I can really see Cameron being in the tank but I'd also welcome a wildcard.
You need to make a button that says "drood the ozafrince"
I'll pay the extra that Card Kingdom costs over TCGPlayer if I can get an "I Drood the Oziferance" [sic] button.
Adam has been so quite during the draft part, strange to not even notice he was there
why am I watching this at 2am
a mystery
Oh boy what a good video to engage too
I ended up getting a Mana Crypt pack 1 pick 4 because nobody else realized it was worth anything, also I almost had a three card combo using Yavimaya Elder, Crystal Shard, and Eternal Witness.
I went 3-0 and won 5 of my games with approach of the second son in this set the set is awesome.
Set thrusters to engage!
re: shoeless Prof - there have been remarks made in Dies To Removal about socks, although of course you can usually see socks w/o having no shoes.
You should probably not pair opposite sides of the table together as you are more likely to get mirror matches colour-wise as that's how a draft should play out. Just so there is more variation in colours.
23:05. Whoop whoop
Oh hey, some engaging content, neat
I did 4 mysty boosty drafts yesterday
Sadly was not able to go to the draft due to sickness, draft well and good luck!
Mana tithe is a good card, kinda
The boosters with the moosters.
Can I just say... Ben W drafting Blue and Ben U drafting White? this is far too inconsistent
Ben Ben Adam Cam Nelson... Graham you have all the boyz this is the best FNPF. (I live so TH-cam is my lrr plattform)
I drafted Five-Color good stuff with this set at my LGS and went undefeated 4-0,8-0

This is twice this month I've thought an official product name in a LRRMTG video title was a made-up format.
Wait is Serendib Efreet a pun on serendipity??
Ben didn’t tap any red for his slave of bolas, just sayin’
I wish they still had the test cards those where cool

What’s this? Content I can engage with! Incredible!
Heroes of Dominaria is a great four player game.
Arena of the Planeswalkers could have been great if Hasbro had been more engaged with it.
got to do boros reckoner + star of extinction for the win. that was fun
So majestic
Very fun games ! The players did a good job commenting plays. Not like some of the Canadian HL - where it is like magic magic magic magic and then i dragons and then .. ohh i scoop...
Can I get a podcast that is just Ben and Nelson converting cards into pop culture references?
So... Cameron had a decce first pick.... 🤯
Is that a new tattoo, Ben?
Cam is a brave man for not having a case on his phone.
Turns out that while most people can achieve a six-pack of abs if they exercise, four-, eight-, and even ten-packs are not unheard of. It's a matter of genetics though. You can't grow more by exercising. Although, I'm sure some card would let you cast Grow Beef or something...
50:16 Graham should of only taken 2, as tauren mauler was killed before combat
"Oh shit, a Chancellor of the Annex, he better take it!"
* Takes the 2 mana life gainer instead *
Sometimes you guys draft really weird and frustratingly, lol. Drives me crazy.
I AM ENGAGEMENT
Thank you for commenting
System comment
The mtg heroclicks game is bad, really bad
FRANTIC SERGE! It looks like Serge LMAO
