Crim's band on Conan: th-cam.com/video/xSfK8a6vww0/w-d-xo.html Sounds great! Can see him best when lights come on at the end. Confirmation it's him in the members section: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finish_Ticket
Crim I think I saw you on tour!! saw Finish Ticket open for twenty one pilots in 2015 in Tulsa, OK, I remember enjoying it quite a lot! had no idea haha
My idea for a return to Ikoria was that the landscape itself mutates, changing to Alara Shards instead of Tarkir Wedges. Revisit the Plane with an entirely color shifted perspective on it's original theme
I think wizards has the philosophy to fixate colorparings with planes. Unless i forget something this would be a first for them. That said with the phyrexian invasion recently and now the omenpaths ingluencr i can see it making sense from a story perspective.
Yea, WotC is a bit fixated on planes being static in their mana/colour afiiliation. However, when they did Lorwyn the whole plane shifted in appearance in Shadowmoor.
Seth, your biggest flaw is you actively look for ways to lose while winning. You will have the game locked for example, with solidarity, unlife, and everything has shroud. But then you sacrifice the shroud enchantment and lose.
I’m not even convinced that Murders is really guild-less Ravnica. Didn’ feel Lost Caverns felt that differen from surface Ixalan. So much of the surfac stuffs were brought into the Caverns too
@@jackpabich763 Fair enuf, we haf new mechanics. But, I still don’t think it feels v differen. The Commander pre-con decks whic could’ve been a great place to showcase these new mechanics, only featured 1 Descend card, 4 Discover & 4 Explore. So wat were they? 4 out of 4 Tribal decks, of the same types s Ixalan 1.0!
The new ixalan was exploring and developing the plane more thoroughly, it wasnt a niche story backdrop like this new ravnica seems to be. Theres clearly still some guild flavour but its way more of a departure from what ravnica traditionally has been than caverns from og ixalan. I agree with Rich in that the set seems to be a bait and switch, you hear ravnica and get excited and then find out its really clue with ravnica flavouring
Real talk, Seth: as an academic (the OTHER MtG-playing English professor, in fact), I think you'd do really well in a PsyD program. You have the brains and the personality to be a clinician. Also, Crim: have you checked out Creeper yet? Serious Misfits/MCR vibes.
@@CraigM-xe6ok I agree. I'm a psychologist that plays magic and although I have a bit of bias on that most of the people I know and hang out with are also psychologists there is a definitive interest in games and board games in general and magic in specific. Just by meeting some psychologist at random at a work thing we often start talking about magic.
Sweatiest is def Tomer, while he tries to roughly follow his themes he still often breaks them to "have a win con" while others tend to run even dysfunctional decks just for the theme.
Richard, at the risk of being pedantic, it's because there's more knowledge over time than there was in ancient (scholars') times. Science used to encompass nearly everything, but we as humanity learned more and more so it's impossible for any one person to master all. Academia had to specialize. I'm with you 100% by the way, just learn forever. I work with a lot of researchers and unfortunately, it's "publish or die" as they say. Great ep! good to learn a bit about my fave commander crew! take care you guys!
Crim *acts* the sweatiest but it's largely part of the trolling. Tomer seems to get the most actually upset at things and poor plays. Not sure I'd actually go all the way to 'sweaty' but compared to the rest.
I think the best set we could have right now to take advantage of the planar bridge is a strixhaven vs Tolarian academy with academy having the other 5 schools that weren't at strixhaven
27:30 I 100% agree with his take on pizza delivery. You get to see so much of your town, there's no risk of going stir crazy from always being in the same place, and you always get to watch the sunset. That said, there needs to be a creepy tax because it's terrifying at night. Even in a safe area, it just feels scary.
You know its funny you mention the numbers attached to names. For a long time my Username was just RPGFanboy. I have no idea when the 14 got attached to it. It had to be a youtube thing that changed. The first time I noticed it was when I got featured in the "Meanest comments" EDHPodcast when Seth read out my name lol
Tomer is definitely the sweaty player hes always playing either artifact decks, combo decks, extra turns decks, or tribal decks that have like, 3 creatures from that tribe because he had to fit in all his broken stuff to support the archetype
Fish mail question for Richard: How did you meet the current cast Crim/Seth/Tomer/ Phil and why did you decide to bring them onboard? Thank you, loving the content!
the more Richard talks about his life/past the more I realize his life is very similar 😆His commentary on software engineers so real. Is the whole fish crew going to be a magic-con chicago?
[SIDE NOTE]: Yeah those numbers you sometimes see in comments is something(dumb) TH-cam did about a year ago. YT basicly said "Y'all are gettin' crowded in here. So, EVERYONE re-submit for your screenname. _If you do not sumbit, a new screenname will be randomly assigned to you._ So I was a little lazy....😅
I remember what put MTGGoldfish on the map for me was when WotC either asked you to stop or cut off the info you guys were using to do matchup analysis(based mostly on MTGO IIRC). They claimed it helped the meta to be solved too quickly. The first article I remember reading was SO's on Standard being too expensive in the fall of 2015....been a fan ever since!
My husband and I have a commander cube where two and one colour commanders have partner up to 3 colours and it’s SO much fun!! But no i would like that to not be the case always 😄
Seth having amazing tastes in music genres? That tracks. Even some country is amazing. I play guitar myself haha started at 11. I always wanted to be another SRV, then i got older and saw it was easier to play 3 chords and scream! 😂😅🎉
Intentionally playing bad decks is still Spike behavior. It's just that it's trying to prove skill by being able to win with subpar decks rather than just winning as much as possible
To answer Crim's question: the Domino's franchise in northeast North Carolina starts at $7.25/hr (which is minimum wage) while in the store, but drops to, like, $6.50-ish while taking deliveries. And they get about $0.60/mile to cover gas. So nah, ain't really changed in 2024. 😂
Also, if you look at the standard metagame page on MTGGoldfish, of the top 5 decks, only 1 is an automatic deck(the poison deck). The rest are either ramp or mid range, neither of which are auto decks at all. What he might mean are decks that have a ton of cards that if unanswered, run away with the game within 1-2 turns. That I agree should not be the case.
Talking about the autopilot decks, as a player who was out of the game for over 20 years and just recently got back into it, those have made it very easy for me to still have an enjoyable experience in the higher range pods that they have at my local shop. I want to get better to so I don't have to lean on that style as much. But the complexity of the cards is just so high. I feel like it's going to take me years to be at the level of some of the other players.
The numbers in the names are part of an auto-generated tag by youtube to distinguish between people with the same name (or something like this). I did not add the numbers but every time I comment somewhere there is this string of numbers, as there probably is after I hit post on this comment.
A random idea I have for a different color identity rule is you can run off color cards that include some part of your color identity. I have no idea how it would actually work but it seems interesting.
The off-kilter approach to a known plane is another example of how 3 set blocks make for a better experience overall. The concept of slivers overrunning Ikoria seems really cool but it sucks as 1 set. In a 3 set block you can see the progression from "Ikoria big monsters" to "Ikoria something isn't quite right, what are these pointy snakes?" To "Ikoria, holy fuck slivers everywhere" and it would be compelling
nah if you ever watch seth play he literally waits every turn for the control/midrange player to tap out because they MIGHT have the counter or the removal for his play. (they never tap out letting them play a new land every turn play their cantrips and draw more cards until they have enough mana to drop their bombs/win cons while holding up mana for the answer they now definitely have drawing all those cards)
@@JonReid01 depends on the aggro deck. but typically he doesnt play a lot of aggro. he wants to play the new flashy combos or the big bombs that do really cool things. when he does play aggro obviously he will avoid over committing to the board in front of a sweeper but especially vs decks that have like wanderer he has left points of damage on the table afraid they'll flash in wanderer which has allowed opponents time to stabilize. but the more against the odds a deck is the more he'll say F it or depending what the league record is. if he's already 0-2 0-3 theres more f it we're trying to do a cool thing no risk no reward
They've done it before with certain sets. Zendikar with allies? That's just zendikar rising, and we all loved that set, right? Strixhaven was also a beloved, right? It was a separate event about school for wizards and witches. Return to ravnica block was a tournament to see who could reach the end first. Its been done. Good? Not really. Lol
I think its best to talk about Emo in terms of "waves" with each successive generation having its own style/culture associated with it and almost exclusively disregarding the others.
43:53 I love how the comment first complains about the lack of interactions in Amalia and discover, then goes on to complain about not being able to run decks without interactions lol.
Ikoria is easy. Pokemon. In the aftermath of phyrexia stuff, bonders become stronger or certain strong bonders arise or even travellers from other planes, maybe not even human. They travel around fighting, or take over areas and it's warfare between the strongest bonders and all their monsters and human allies/minions, etc etc. Mechanics around buffing certain monster types and forming teams, I dunno.
Im the same way as Richard. I can't play the top decks. In Ravnica I played Aristocrats. In Theros it was Red Devotion (I even beat Todd Anderson on Mono black dev on camera with it).
Part of the beauty of magic is self expression and creation. For a lot of people (myself included), playing popular decks takes away from the experience. I would rather chase something fringe and make it work.
if you're asking me for a link, it was like 20 years ago :D whenever theros standard was around. There was a starcity article about my deck that Michael Martin wrote, and you can find my decklists in the tournament results on the starcity site. But I do remember how it went down. Game 3, I was playing red dev splash white. I sided in Assemble the Legion and got it after he got a rat and demon down. Thanks to those soldier tokens I was finally able to stabilize and turn the corner for the win. The guys taking the results at the table actually let me keep the slip with Todd's signature. Definitely the highlight of my career. I was shaking so bad, Todd was 4th in the world at the time. @@josephpayton7522
In regards to the color question I would go the opposite from richard, to this day i think fetchlands should have color identity, landfall is annoying enough as it is even without off color fetches. Edit: what would you even do with all the free spells?
The number thing is because TH-cam ate a bunch of user names and turned them into your name with numbers. My name is one of those, and I hate it and have no idea how to change it.
Question to Seth: where the heck do you live? Are you really in that kind of village hidden between mountains that no one finds without actively searching for it?
said it once ill say it again i want a mecha godzilla omnath so we have a colorless omnath and do a monster universe tie in with the banger zilla movies weve been getting
I am HAPPILY playing on mtgo. On my first modern league ever I went 2-3 with rhinos and then went 3-2. MTGO plays infinitely better than arena and I think I'm hooked.
In response to the mech bot fights on kaladesh, I would love to see that specific idea but centered more around underground illegal bot fights, big hero 6, or real steel style.
I really hate seeing people only talk about power gaming when talking about color identity stuff cuz what the color pie does is unite and restrict themes
Going back to Tarkir could be cool but they kinda ruined everything cool about the plane by undoing khans and bringing back the dragons, now its just the generic dragon plane and the khans all suck (RIP the Zurgoat... bro is getting mogged by ragavan). We need a fate re-reforged set to fix this.
Yeah it's ok when it happens from time to time but it is seriously noticable that it takes a few seconds to get his attention and listen properly. Happens a lot and for some time..
It's tough to be upset with him because he does add a lot to the conversation. A lot of trolling too though. I just feel bad saying anything about attention spans.
i don't think the most competitive person necessarily has to go to a lot of tournaments or compete a bunch. i think it's just naturally being averse to losing and going farther than the others to win more
Being averse to losing by default makes the person in the example non-competitive. Losing is part of competition so one needs to accept it to be competitive. Maybe you meant the mentality of playing to win vs playing not to lose but that was not clear in your comment.

Yea, WotC is a bit fixated on planes being static in their mana/colour afiiliation. However, when they did Lorwyn the whole plane shifted in appearance in Shadowmoor.

In response to the mech bot fights on kaladesh, I would love to see that specific idea but centered more around underground illegal bot fights, big hero 6, or real steel style.
I dont understand why haveing decks that put themselves together is a bad thing? Like its called haveing a theme.
We need more hot takes from Richard.

Seth's biggest flaw as a magic player is insanely obvious to anyone who has watched a fair number of videos. Scoops way too soon.

I really hate seeing people only talk about power gaming when talking about color identity stuff cuz what the color pie does is unite and restrict themes
Going back to Tarkir could be cool but they kinda ruined everything cool about the plane by undoing khans and bringing back the dragons, now its just the generic dragon plane and the khans all suck (RIP the Zurgoat... bro is getting mogged by ragavan). We need a fate re-reforged set to fix this.
Y’all really gotta tell Crim to stop just scrolling the internet while you record the podcast lol
Why? It's not like he adds anything when he pays attention.
Yeah it's ok when it happens from time to time but it is seriously noticable that it takes a few seconds to get his attention and listen properly. Happens a lot and for some time..
I can't speak for him but he has a lot of traits I have as someone with adhd. And as you might expect it can be hard to docus
It's tough to be upset with him because he does add a lot to the conversation. A lot of trolling too though. I just feel bad saying anything about attention spans.

i don't think the most competitive person necessarily has to go to a lot of tournaments or compete a bunch. i think it's just naturally being averse to losing and going farther than the others to win more
Being averse to losing by default makes the person in the example non-competitive. Losing is part of competition so one needs to accept it to be competitive. Maybe you meant the mentality of playing to win vs playing not to lose but that was not clear in your comment.
