When it comes to the spirit deck I just call it airfolk
You should do an episode where you play two headed giant the most underrated format
@@davidhowell1415 That would be fun to watch. I miss THG
Loved the game play. Sorry you didnt realize george did a massive misplay by not sacking his endurance in the second game. You might of been able to hobble out a win but who knows.
Glad to see the boys are continuing my storied tradition of not reading a single word on the cards and proceeding headlong to the misplay step. Bravo chaps.
Why would anyone read a card? That's NOT how you play magic
@@charliereeb That's why textless cards are the best
We've all played these games. It's pretty funny to watch.
I hate to thumbs up this comment because it runs the perfect 666 likes
Reading? Pfft, next thing you'll tell me is that I have to learn the rules.
This episode felt like someone bringing out a Stradivarius violin and playing Smoke on the Water with it.
If that analogy doesn't deserve a thumbs up I don't know what does.
That’s a great comment omfg 🤣
As a Legacy guy, it was like watching someone in an F1 car drive through a neighborhood at the speed limit.
@@Glass_Ninja that sounds both frustrating and entertaining at the same time
@@myneighborsnorlax3780 I've never seen a Reanimator deck look slower than Maverick. But that was absolutely what it felt like in the games. Legacy truly is wild and great!
After seeing Arin skip every tutorial in every video game ever and then proceed to struggle, it does not surprise me in the slightest that he has no idea what any of the cards do. Gotta love that consistency through different hobbies hahaha.
That or he's nervous to play on camera.
It's about what I expected him to do, based on how well his chess videos with Danny have gone for exsample.
We who have ADHD call this ADHD.
Some people prefer to learn through trial and error.
He's maximizing the entertainment value of the game rather than merely trying to win, honestly
"reading the card explains the card" - doesn't shuffle zenith into his library haha
I never said I read it
@@GermanGaryOak True 😂 thanks for replying :) i really enjoy it when you're part of the videos
@@samael1307 Really appreciate the comment!
I was going to comment this also
How many of you are actually George?
"I almost won with a merfolk deck"
-Prof's TOP student
🤣
"Reading the card explains the card" says George, as he puts his Green Sun's Zenith into the graveyard...
And that kids, is why you do as I say not as a I do :D
He didn't even shuffle it once, let alone twice!
I too visited the comment section to make a sarcastic comment about this.
No one said these people were smart lol 😂
LOL I came here to comment this.
Arin: “I have a stick and he has a battleaxe”
Also Arin: *has 3 mangled anti-tank rifles in the trash can next to him*
Arin netdecking these multi-thousand-dollar Legacy decks and having mismatched Swords to Plowshares is so unutterably funny to me.
This is so charactertistically Arin that it's not even funny.
Maybe the point is to keep them distinguishable? Probably not...
He certainly has fun showing off, just not in actual play.
They are not proxies? Dang
@@crouchinglibcrab9527 why proxy when his whole MO is to flex
The number of misplays and quotes in this are hilarious and I'm less than 1/3 of the way in. Love getting to see Arin play Magic
"The only implication is that I'm good at shuffling!"
- The Shufflemaster
@@1tinydinosaur510 "And I'm not, by the way"
-Also the Shufflemaster
Not knowing his own decks is the most Arin thing Arin could do. 🤣
Not knowing his own multi-thousand dollar decks he suggested they play with, so that he could show them off, is the most Arin thing Arin could do.
@@CJ-ek6qc did you just make up a scenario to be mad about? Literally in the video they said they asked Arin what decks he had and if he wants he can bring them. It was never Arin’s suggestion to play with the decks.
That evoke in game 2 was just savage. Felt bad for the Prof there. RIP his dreams of an undead Griselbrand.
He was so proud in thinking he'll do better than Arin only to die faster 🤣
Prof had a reanimate in hand and s black msna open. He totally missed that
Can't believe Prof just told a man he brainstormed wrong. Just savage.
I learned from LRR that everyone Brainstorms wrong. EVERYONE
The most powerful Sorcery in all of Magic.
@@Flickstro This hurts me on a spiritual level.
...but still not as much as "brainstorm locked", the creator of that phrase knew not what he wrought
that turn 1 griselbrand getting swords to plowshared without Arin activating the draw 7 ability on the stack hurts so much.
Yes. This 1,000 times this
I'm guessing this dude doesnt play magic
i stopped the video immediately to search for this comment.
@@jonlamoreaux2228 I stopped the video immediately because it didn't feel worthwhile to watch someone play a $$$ deck like it's a core set intro deck
Greek Tragedy brings catharsis
Geek Tragedy brings high blood pressure
I'm so happy to see Arin here doing what he does best.
Ignoring text.
It's good to see his consistency 😂
why Griselbrand is good:
You can draw cards very efficiently, paying life.
What Arin chose to use it for:
___.
Look, when i read Griselbrand all it says is "pay 1 pife: exil from graveyard"
I love this series because it's an hour of watching the Professor wrangling cats, just insane energy from the guests. Absolutely top-tier entertainment.
Professor: “There’s no Merfolk in Pioneer”
Ixalan: “am I a joke to you?”
There’s no *playable* merfolk in pioneer.
Yes.
@@stridernfs1 I’d make a joke about how there’s no playable merfolk anywhere
As someone who top 8ed a PTQ with Pioneer Merfolk I agree
Damn this series is ramping up to be the best mtg play series on youtube! Vintage with Arin Hansen is awesome! Can’t wait to see how he misinterprets the rules of the game if every other episode’s trend continues.
sir this is legacy not vintage
Ngl I kinda want a reaction video of EgoRaptor reading Chains of Mephistopheles
Totally agree... This has become my fav play series on YT.
"Is that why tendrils is in your deck, to gain a little bit of life?"
"Yeah!"
Tendrils is in the deck to win the game. You use gristle brand to draw a bunch of cards, then play children of korlis to gain all of the life back. Then you draw your whole deck, reanimating back the children to keep gaining life. Then cast tendrils for game with storm of 10 or higher.
I think Georg knows that Storm is a combo tool and was just mocking Arin.
That definitely makes sense. I was wondering why prof ditched the children of korlis when having a little patience could put you in a favorable position after griselbrand.
Arin reminds me of me every time I try to get back into Magic after an extended layoff from playing the game.
Seeing Arin stumble through every single interaction despite owning both decks seems entirely on brand XD fantastic work
Love this video! Reminds me of watching my friends play at the LGS after I finish a round early.
36:28 That "I did" was such an underrated joke, my lord that was good!😂
"Reading the card explains the card."
"I wish I could read it."
"Oh no."
Best exchange in the whole video
Timestamp?
@@mrod1075 16:50
Loved this, this is literally the best tutorial on how to play reanimator wrong on every turn. My first time I jammed a griselbrand into an on-board karakas. I don't play reanimator anymore haha
Okay, turn one evoke grief, don't take the swords, make griseldaddy, don't draw cards. Holy mackerel.
@@JonaxII I don't think he wanted to win since he took the worse card he had and just said no 7 free cards
@@JonaxII I just want to say I love your name. 12/10, my all-time favorite show.
Maverick wasn't in the X-Men, but he's been an antagonist to them from time to time!
Was hoping someone would point this out. And, he was more of an ally until his recent full heel turn.
I'm still not completely convinced that Arin knows what Magic is
I have been STOKED for another episode of shuffle up and play, the guests have been fantastic and the banter is 10/10
This gives me confidence that I can one day make it to play at the TCC ha ha.
"Cos yours are weighted" - immediately rolls a 12. Perfectly setting me up for this episode. Love it!
"reading the card, explains the card" he says while resolving an green suns zenit and putting it into the graveyard xD
"I play a Thalia..."
PLEASANT KENOBI HAS ENTERED THE CHAT
**PK WOULD LIKE TO KNOW YOUR LOCATION**
@@PleasantKenobi ONLY IF YOU PAY THE ONE. DID YOU PAY THE ONE?
"Guardian of Thraben! She's a baaaaad motherf-"
"Shut yo' mouth!"
"I'm just talkin bout Thalia!"
Watching this was like watching someone using a bow as a bludgeoning weapon. Great content.
Now we just need Arin and Dan on to talk about the history of Magic with Dan and starting out so soon in Magic with Arin.
I have never heard Dan mention Magic before, but I could totally imagine him having played way back on and off.
@@LinkEX Dan is actually the one who introduced Arin to Magic!! 😊 Arin's first ever game was one of their 10-Minute Power Hour episodes.
@@jonathanrobinson8926 Heh, nice! Thanks for the hint, I might catch up on that episode.
@@LinkEX For sure! Here is the link. th-cam.com/video/zzpc3AtC3No/w-d-xo.html
Technically, Arin says he learned to play the night before, but he also says this is his first real game, so I think that qualifies as close enough. 😅
Arin, Prof and George have great synergy. Thoroughly enjoyed this video, thank you to everyone for taking part!
prof was like "I've got a great hand, you're going down this time" and I'm looking at the video timer seeing there's ten minute left. Yeah, doesn't look like we're going to game three.
Grisselbrand decks can one turn kill in that time so it actually would be possible to win 2 games in that time but this grisselbrand deck looks really weird based on the video and I haven't read the list yet
Premature eblackulation is a problem we must all face at one point or another.
This was my favorite shuffle up and play. It really makes me feel like I could, without having any online Cred, or Internet fame, could be a good person for the show. This one was for the every person out there that dreams of gaming with the prof one day.
"Shuffle Scrubs" would be a great spinoff for Game Grumps where they play card games.
It's content like this that makes me happy I'm a patron. Keep up the great work Prof. This series has been awesome to watch.
This is by far my favorite series on TH-cam and I look forward to these videos constantly. Ideally (and selfishly) I would love to see a higher frequency of this type of content
Right now putting an episode out every other week is kind of the maximum we can do. The episodes take an extreme amount of time to edit, etc.
@@TolarianCommunityCollege The effort is seen and appreciated. Truly, everyone does a great job between the editing, the cast, the fun game modes to the tik tok clips that come from these! Everyone’s work is appreciated and I can’t wait for the next episode!
I feel like a ton of people are just missing the point of shuffle up and play. It’s ok when people aren’t amazing players…plus this is FREE CONTENT so just laugh along and relax.
THANK YOU
@@TolarianCommunityCollege my absolute pleasure prof. Keep up the great work. I enjoyed this episode immensely!
@@TolarianCommunityCollege and THANK YOU for putting out such an amazing series. I look forward to every episode, they've all been a joy
While this is "free content", time is a resource. It's finite. I'd much rather see more discussion videos like Dies to Removal than this but ultimately though, the professor should do whatever makes him happy.
@@outlandishmtg4415 just don't watch the video then
Hey I'm prof, I'm not a prof, and we're the game profs!
"Why didn't you keep a two lander?" That line really made my day! 😂
I could watch this series every day
Please do! ;p
I'd like to see a video of Prof demonstrating how to cheat a roll with a spindown, without it being absurdly obvious.
Lightning makes magnet rocks that are then turned into spindowns.
There's no real method to it. The issue is the spindowns are weighted weird and thus if the side opposite the 20, 19 etc is heavier you'll roll extremely high and vice versa. In a regular d20 even if one side is favored you'll still roll a 2 or an 8 as those are right next to the 20.
@@Featherwick 2 issues with that argument.
a) From what I can tell, any test I've seen of this theory demonstrates that there is no statistially significant difference between normal D20 and Spindowns. If you have any source that actually runs experiments in any fashion and demonstrates differently, please direct me to it.
b) This only comes up when rolling for going first, realistically, so if there is a standard weighting error within spindown dice, it actually doesn't matter because both people are rolling one so it affects them equally. And I highly doubt any theoretical increase in the likelihood of rolling ties on certain numbers brings it anywhere near the 1/36 tie of both people rolling 7s on 2d6, along with the other tie situations.
So, given that any statistical oddities are irrelevant, should they even exist, the only problem left is cheating.
It is in fact easier to roll in such a way to increase the likelihood of a high number, but it's also extremely obvious when observed, and not even particularly effective.
In conclusion, it is more efficient to roll spindown dice than 2d6 as it reduces the likelihood of ties and therefor the number of rerolls.
@@2ndPerk The main concern is that spindowns have significantly more faces with double-sided numbers on one side of the dice than the other, when on a standard die both sides will have a fairly equal number of each. (not exactly, ofc, since 10 is opposite 11) Since most D20s have indents cast into the dice for easier inking, this can result in more material being removed from the higher numbered side, meaning the lower numbered side will be heavier and settle more quickly. This is a similar reason to why clear dice are standard for most competitive play, as cheap opaque dice can often have air bubbles or poorly compressed material comps that result in one side being weighted, despite the dice not actually being modified in any way.
Of course, in most dice the amount of material offset by number indents is almost inconsequential, to the point where higher numbers might pop up a *fraction* of a percent more. In practice, if you want to use a rolldown, and don't want people to think you're cheating with it for whatever reason, just get a small dice tower to throw it in when rolling. Because yeah, statistically, each face has an equal chance of landing, number placement on the dice is irrelevant.
@@2ndPerk If the 2 spindowns (or d20s) were perfectly weight such that the result is completely randomized, there would be a 1/20 chance of a tie.
Edit: Nevermind. Took the 1/36 at face value. The chance of tieing with 2d6 is 11.3%, which is higher than 5% with spindown/d20
This episode was like watching that kid who had to give a class speech but did absolutely noting to prepare for it.
This could have been the game where either Prof or Arin finally wins a game of Magic on screen.
Don't worry, Arin, you're not just bad at Magic, you're bad at video games too.
This makes my "oof" the "BIG OOF".
Finally someone speakin' truth instead of a$$ kissing-Play Hard=Die Free. 😁
@@horaciohernandez2850 Big *Ouphe
The Shuffle Master himself! GO VIDEO GAME BOY, GO!
George had no business being this funny, that dude rocks. Great video!
THIS IS THE CROSSOVER I HAVE BEEN WAITING MY LIFE FOR. ❤❤❤❤❤
This video was hilarious 😂
George had me cracking up the episode. I wish this series could be turned into a weakly thing because this is now my favorite series in combination with the cardmarket feature match.
10/10 keep up the good content!
For some reason this is one of the best videos about magic I have seen in my life. So enjoyable and I usually don't watch playing videos because I get bored.
This is absolutely my favorite episode so far. So unhinged. I laughed so hard
This is one of the channels that just evolved into the right direction. Absolutely awesome prof. My second favourite is "Play to win" although I do not play CEDH. :)
I have not laughed so much at magic content in a looong time. great stuff lads
No matter how fed I am with Magic in general I always find your videos to be entertaining. That is a sign of really high entertainment value :).
Hell Prof, you really don't miss. This series brings me so so so much joy.
I'd love to get PK and Crimz doing a Legayc D&T mirror in the future. It's a really interactive game with so many little plays that net advantage and is, basically by definition, a 50/50 matchup.
So is Prof the Judge? Because I’m getting Shang Tsung vibes from him. Like Arin is Earthrealm’s champion, and we’re one missed trigger away from an invasion.
Underrated comment lmao
This is my favorite TH-cam series at the moment. The guests and banter are great and the production is very clean.
It's amazing how fresh and fun this show is every time again. Allways amazing and different Energy, it holds my attention so effortlessly
Arin: “Turn 1 Griselbrand.”
Audience: 😍
Arin: “Pass.”
Audience: 🤔
Arin: “Swords resolves, Griselbrand is exiled.”
Audience: 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
wh... why didn't he draw 7 in response to the swords!!!
My world's are colliding. Never thought I'd see a Grump on this channel!
Great video. There was something about the game and the feel of the video that brought me back to the olden days of tabletop Magic
This episode was great, but also the next episode is going to be very cool as well.
Dan 🤝 the Professor
Having to deal with Arin, saying he knows what he is doing, but he really doesn’t
I gotta admit when I saw a play series as one of the stretch goals i wasnt that excited, but man so far all these have been consistently great, keep it up guys
Been following Arin for years, and love a lot that he does. Glad to see that five minutes in to the vid and he's already sassing everyone else!
Such a grumpy dude, he fits the bill everywhere he goes.
Awesome decks, Arin! (...and google...)
I'm imagining Arin frantically googling "gud legacy decks" like a few days before he was supposed to come in to record this.
Watching Arin Hanson play trading card games is like brushing your teeth with a razor blade.
Arin is an absolute delight, all of the guests for this series have been fantastic
12:00 "reading the card explains the card!" Proceeds to place Green Sun's Zenith into the graveyard lol
George May be my fav guest ever. Great episode.
Yay legacy content! Too rare these days. 😍👍
Check out the Bosh n Roll channel for the best Legacy content
The banter feels so natural, it reminds me of when my friend first taught me how to play
This was incredibly funny, and I've been binging, and shuffle up and play is currently my favorite live play magic content on TH-cam
Seeing Arin on here was an insta click for me, hope to see more of him. I wonder what deck he normally plays.
Love to see Arin on again. It was a very fun episode!
I don't know how you do it - but each new episode of this show is even funnier than the last. Love it!
Thank you!
I’ve been waiting for this one Professor. Gracias amigo!!
"Don't give him advice we're supposed to beat him" 😂😂😂
I looove that Arin is part of this great Community! I love Game Grumps, I love Shuffle Masters, I love Egoraptor back in the day, I love Dies to Removal, I love TCC, I love Magic the Gathering!!
Just wanted to say I adore this new series. Best gameplay series on TH-cam.. Please keep em coming and thanks TCC
with the incredible variety of guests on SU&P i found my self consistantently surprised by the incredible banter between the prof and every single person in the mtg fandom
This was like watching a dream.
The trio of Arin, George, and the Professor is honestly nonstop fun. Good shit, dudes.
Great content again! I'm looking forward to the Commander episode with Rhystic Studies and moar Pauper!!
24:16 "did i leave the oven on?" thanks for the content prof, love your commentaries
Can we get Post Malone and Arin both as guests together? I think the universe may implode when those timelines converge.
One way or another, it will lead to Post bringing Arin further into occult stuff.
oh my gosh Arin was so funny to watch! the dumb fumbling makes me feel so much better at playing magic XD
This episode was great. Such funny banter!
Great video, thank you prof+team! awesome that you guys always sit there with your socks on the chair!! :)
Arin Hanson and TCC finally playing MTG together is the crossover I've been waiting for all my life. It's the perfect intersection of my favorite things!
At least he activated Grisslebrand the second time.
Yeah not shit lol. Would of been GG if he actually used the first Grisdaddy
Yeah the first one was hard to watch, yikes...
First time watching Shuffle Up and Play and it was great! That preview of next episode with Hill saying "There's always a pump with Brian Kib" killed me, so great.
Arin, I think you did great man! I was very entertained and unironically learned a bit about legacy reanimator watching you pilot the deck.
I think we've all played a game or two against a player like George. Arin took it like a champ.
A player... that knows how their cards work??? lol 😂
