I used to think Rosewater was crazy but now I can clearly see he's nuts
phoenixmar1
Nuts for squirrels too.
So acorns!
Nuts! Nuts! I love nuts! Walnuts and almonds but not peanuts! Peanuts make me crazy!
Truly, huge props to Serge for so calmly judging one of the wildest imaginable, yet still fully legitimate, scenarios in a game of Magic AND in which one of the players was Mark Rosewater.
Judge video: things are gonna get a little weird
Wedge: I cast shahrizard
LaBass666 Shahrmander, Shahrmeleon, Shahrizard!
@@EricChoiniere "Things are gonna get weird."
Wedge: "*bitch you don't even know*"
"I don't know, figure it out."
-Official rules judge
Watching Mark play Magic reminds you that in spite of the competitions and Standards and metas, Magic is supposed to be FUN! It's weirdly inspiring to see him enjoy a game he's been sculpting and adding to for the last 20 years

lol, I was gonna do this, but thanks
Lol, I did this without realising someone else had
Wedge vs Cameron was the match that had... some cool stuff happening that I don't want to spoil.
"This is so Hearthstone" in reference to chaos. perfect.
Wedge Vs Cameron was the highlight of this whole thing. Let’s be honest. So much crazy and whacky things happened.
I love the judge video........poor Serge and Nelson.
The only thing funnier than that was the Wedge v. Cameron match
Half kitten, half kitten...the best possible combo I can think of
Legitaly one of the most painful combos, especially if you have multiple of them.
Its moon moon
I love the fact that the Dragon token for Sword of D&D is actually the 5th edition monster manual artwork. Nice touch Wizards
Well for Ancient Gold Dragon, but ya
Please do not let this comment section distract you from the fact that in 2017, Mark Rosewater threw Slaying Mantis off LoadingReadyLive, and plummeted 3 ft through the play table.
That Cam vs Wedge and Mark game was amazing to watch. As someone who's a big fan of Cam's playstyle, I was was hoping he would win, but then again, Wedge and Mark deserved to win...
1 of them came out broken after that.
I love how cam First picked very cryptic comand
-QuakeDawgPlays - So fitting! Lol
I would expect nothing less.
This is why Cam is my first pick.
4:40:17
Maria: How big is that Beav...?
-awkward attempt to withhold laughter.
5:06:48 “My work here is done!” Serge is so pleased with himself.
I really wish Cam had named his deck "The Indifference Engine or whatever", for the Jazzpunk reference. I guess he hasn't played it all the way yet, so he probably doesn't know.
Finally on TH-cam! Yes so much hype!
8 HOURS of epicness!
Andrew Wilkie EIGHT HOURS OF MADNESS!
So happy to see my boy Wedge and The Amaturing having the time of their life over there!
This looks like a lot of planning and hard work paying off. Great job pulling this off!
I watched all but the Wedge v Cam match on Twitch, as I just couldn't wait to see this amazing draft. The stream did not disappoint! Keep up the amazing work, guys!
I just realized: a life-count app for un-Magic would not only have to be able to handle fractions and infinity, but also it would have to be able to go into sub-games.
Surprisingly that wouldn't necessarily be that hard to code...
It also needs to handle multiples of π
@@jfb- Really looking forward to being on -e^(πi) life and dying to a Gut Shot.
now i want to see an "unset block" draft
ThatMessyAsianDude soo $50 per seat nice
The old ones weren't made for drafting, but it still could be fun.
Chaos Draft with all 3 unsets included with some jank
Wow, this ppr was a lot of fun! So many epic moments: Shahrazad @5:02:19, Sub-game Ninja @7:58:10
Mark Rosewater, Wedge and MtA are great guests, banned cards being played, multiple sub-games, legal outside assistance, what a hilarious set Unstable is. Thanks LRR for several hours of great content and a lot of laughs!
Edit: timestamps.
50 minute game one. :D
Mark seems like such a awesome person

I speak for everyone that visits this page when I say, "I love you. Please birth my children."
Saiburi Ellard you are amazing thanks
Kory Stuemke thanks for speaking for us all
Thanks so much for making this. It's a great reminder of how fun this format is, even four years later.
Already watched on Twitch but I'm rewatching it here because it's awesome.
The next un set should have a card that starts a subgame in which you get a benefit if you loose, conceding counts as winning
Best part is 2:31:35 where Maria tries to cover up her Entirely Normal Armchair 😂
Wow that was a long video!! Enjoyed every minute too, good job!
Graham’s “It’s a little gnome” comment was both wonderful and shiver inducing at the same time. Oh memory of Watch and Plays past. How you vex me so!
Nice. I'm glad to see you guys didn't have any more issues trying to upload this.
"I'm gonna be so mad if he rolls doubles."
_roll_
*_"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"_*
"THE TAPE MEASURE PLEASE!"
Alright. I don't think this needs to be said, but Mark Rosewater is a delightful human being
"Person outside the game"? Why not Beej?
I have watched this so many times but I am still losing it at “BRAINS-hop-hop, BRAINS-hop-hop” 😂
Adam totally should have slipped Mark the Earl of Squirrel and kept the Slaying Mantis. It's just a terrible flavor fail to have the man in the literal squirrel suit playing the wrestling card instead of his beloved squirrels.
That whole scene was painful to watch. What has Mark ever done to you to deserve this, Adam?
MaRo in his Squirrel Suit was perfect!!
Amazing guys. Super entertaining. Thanks a lot really enjoyed it
Mark so obviously loves his own product! Very happy to see that the set is so fun. Def picking up a booster box :)

Lol thx dude
Rewatching this for like the third time in total and it's still one of the best PPR's you ever had.
Obviously the highlight moment is a 2v1 shaharazad, but this whole PPR was amazing. I've never played an UN-set before, but it seems like I really should get that fixed :P
Amazing work by Paul to get overlay and the life totals adjusted to the sub-game!
Love the content
Well i plannned to bulid a cube for this set but being high-schooler means no money but hey i can see lrr crew play it so even better
Thanks to this series I want to learn how to play this gamev
This video inspired my new love for un sets
Yessss! Thank you so much for this! Love you guys!
Please don’t say yass. Please?
Oh whoops you said yes... sorry about that ma’am.
I love that Shaharazad is effectively an Un-card despite being black-bordered.
Love how you presented the draft!
Round one was one of the best Magic rounds that I've EVER seen
Omg Mark is wearing a squirrel suit. My jaw dropped when I realised it was him. I thought it was Adam because Adam, but wow it was Mark. That is amazing.
MARK BROUGHT GLASSES!!!!
1:43:30
I'm just gonna remove my original comment and leave this time stamp.
Also who else wants to see Mark Rosewater's collection of animal costumes?
The girls from The Amateuring are awesome, now I gotta check their channel. Their games were hilarious.
Oh my glob, I love your dress, Kathleen!
Loving this content!
Kathleen's Joy over the success of her scheme is incredible to behold XD
Totally sold it too, I had no idea until it happened.
When my friends and I drafted UNstable we used four packs per person cause we only had six people and some had to leave early so we only were able to draft and play one game. It was still super fun. I ended up drafting up an Abzan Die Roll, first picking Hydra Doodle. I had a mini Squirrel Sub theme cause I got Earl of Squirrel. I also got to play with Over My Dead Bodies.
Kathleen with that setup!
just 52 sec on video and i already lost my shit. god tier episode
Meghan's deck was fierce! And she played it impeccably!
hydradoodle is just neverwinter hydra but with reach instead of ward 4
8:05:38 Graham says "Forest" then plays a mountain.
Serge and Nelson really got their work cut out for them in this PRR(?). Cam and Wedge's game is sheer insanity.
I hope one day to love something the way Mark Rosewater loves playing this set lol
let the subgames begin!!
5:02:21 Wedge vs Cameron is the best magic game i've evere seen
I'm excited that this Unstable tournament gave us an actual resolve of the most un-set-like card that started in a normal set!
This is my favorite judge video.
Amazing. Just Amazing all the way through.
I am SO glad Graham said "Bulbous Bouffant" ...because that's exactly what I was thinking!
was out of magic when this came out. cant fucking wait to draft unfinity
Does anyone know the program they use to scan their cards on the table?
2:41:47 MaRo putting glasses on here shouldn't actually do anything. Blurry says "This creature can be blocked only if defending player was wearing glasses AS IT WAS CAST." By the time he put on the glasses, Maria had already cast Blurry Beeble and put it on the stack.
Kwnowing about the council of Marks was mindblowing LOL
4:17:06 Wedge untapping and drawing like he has some sort of beginning phase.
Humming bird putting in work! Nectarpotence!
I LOVE SQUIRRELS!!!...yes.
I had to take a moment for that one.
So excited!!!
I am definitely gonna use "Scaramanga" as the secret word next time. "Saruman" just doesn't have the same kick.
I used used hazmat suit to give it that gets left hanging hast by holding the card In my hand. It was awesome.
Maria's "HE'S HEEEEERE" AT 4:24:52 is so good
I NEED that squirrel costume.
I really like "brave little toaster" when I was little. Perhaps that's how I ended up like this...
Shellephant is a 1/4.
Alex Smith no, it’s a 3/3
It's a 1-3/3-4
I’m kinda sad mark didn’t bring a crap ton of lands for them to use
Can't wait to draft this set on my Birthday, in around a months time. Any tips would be appreciated.
06:08:00 wedge should have force of willed the bounce spell with spike
Mark is crazy in the most wonderful way
Gotta love a well haunched squirrel
Anyone else realize how perfect that costume fits mark rosewater
I know, he is so squirrelly, it's great :D
There is a mistake in the title and on minature, there is pre...RErelease
7:13:00 MARO WITH THE FIRST TRY DOUBLES
Clearly the "Magic Word" should be "moist" because if tapping creatures doesn't win the game then repeatedly whispering "moist" would tilt some people enough to force them to concede.
Rewatching some of these randomly, love the PPRs, and I see at 1:04:08 a joke about Really Epic Punch...
WOTC: Perpetually eh? Mhmmmmmm
Serge: "*sigh.....* May I?"
With I.T.G.L.H get the person's attention lick your hand and then ask for the high five. Worked every time for me.
So the lack of clause on Really Epic Punch proves that the Arena-exclusive perpetual power/toughness changes aren't IMPOSSIBLE in paper, just not convenient-ish
Giving a kitten a sword definitely makes it more adorable. I refer to the Shrek movies.
He really played that Jitte wrong. Correct play first turn was equip to spike, attack, equip to the cat, block, remove 3 counters to kill 2 creatures, give cat +2/+2, hold 1 counter for next turn.
60 page faq that addresses some of the cards, lmao !
What if side quest is used with Sharhazard?
What if you send someone on a sidequest, then your OPPONENT shaharazrds
2:30:19 Wouldn't Maria end up in the graveyard as soon as state-based actions are checked?
