Hey everyone! You may have noticed some changes on this new Close Quarters episode. I am always working hard to improve this series and I would love your feedback on it! Thanks in advance!
Hey Mitch! This was super clear and concise, maybe just cut when people take time to think and don't inform us. I personally don't think it's necessary. Maybe some more chat about plays and what they mean for the context of the game. Otherwise this is awesome dude! You've improved this series so much and it's really appreciated!!
Lmao knew that was going to be commented as soon as I saw it 😂 I always try for at least 3 basics of the colors even in a 5 color deck but sometimes I'll take 1 out. But damn only had 2 basic plains in a 2 color deck??
Joe and Mitch(!) accidentally forgot to include me. Anyway, my lowest TCGPlayer market price is currently $2.08 for my Fifth Dawn printing. PS: There is a Timeless Witness token!
I love that you guys do not only explain the game mechanics with those pop-up post-it, but you also explain things like "j'accuse" at 25:45 with pop references. That's both hilarious and kind.
Eddie either is the superior deck builder, gets really lucky with his draws or has higher powered decks every time but I feel like he wins the majority of the games at least the ones on camera
Eddie vs mitch is a 1000 bucks deck centered around a well known powerful commander vs a 100 bucks deck centered around a lesser known less strong theme. It’s of course super likely eddie will win almost every game between the two of them. Just the remark in the game about an ashnod’s altar and Mitch kind of saying it’s out of budget. That’s the difference between the two people and their decks. Mitch builds a synergy while eddie would build a combo.
@@leviram4089 Edh ranked #8 commander is more obscure than one ranked #256? And before Neon Dynasty Sisay was the go to shrines commander. Give the guy some credit, he builds good decks.
I really appreciate Close Quarters, and enjoy watching it! I always relearn card interactions. EDH is my fave format right now, and this show is my favorite for EDH coverage. You rock!
Here is a card Joe can put in hes Yarok deck, "Faerie Artisans." So you get 2x tokens from them and if the creature the opponent played has a ETB trigger you get 4x triggers XD
Hot damn! It's always so good to see the Boys from QFTJL and it's always so good to see a new Close Quarters, so getting them both together is super-special-awesome!
I always enjoy these episodes, so keep them coming :D I think this video was a lesson for all... The more you let someone (coughEddiecough) search for lands, the greater their chances of drawing good cards instead of lands. And as Eddie showed in this game, that hand full of lands might get exchanged for things you wish they didn't have.
1:01:17 I myself was more of a Moby and Zoe fan in SSX Tricky. I feel the same way about the music. So good and the DJ in 3 was awesome. I was sad to see Eddie relegated to basically a skin in 3. For my money SSX Tricky and SSX 3 where the high points of the whole series.
Hey Mitch, so good to see new content! Some feedback I believe you would really benefit from: Said with love: those sticky notes are absolutely horrible. The new design is SO cool though, it's quite calming and a good flow! Having the arrow-change over is sooo much better than the black screen and text from before. If you want to keep the text of 'what goes on that rarely ever is interesting', maybe find something that fits the theme of the background/piggy bank, rather than the sticky notes? Also, I think the two player-screens should be without their right-side border, so it just attaches to the board-screens border. That way it doesn't seem disconnected between the 4 players, and the room comes more together. Hoping for a lot more episodes soon! Live long and blame Eddie
"J'accuse...!" was an open letter published on 13 January 1898 in the newspaper L'Aurore by the influential writer Émile Zola. In the letter, Zola addressed President of France Félix Faure and accused the government of anti-Semitism and the unlawful jailing of Alfred Dreyfus, a French Army General Staff officer who was sentenced to lifelong penal servitude for espionage.
I wish my Esper could ramp like Boros just did. I run around _twenty_ ramp sources (more or less, depending on your definition), at least fifteen of which cost 2 or less, and I'm _still_ lucky to open any at all without having to mulligan multiple times.
Was a fun game, but Eddie hade the win guaranteed if he enlightened tutored during Joe's end step instead of the valikut awakening, he ended up getting lucky though so it didn't mater. #blameeddie
Look, John ISN'T playing a Changeling tribal deck. He's playing a Lord tribal deck. And an Angel tribal deck. And a Human tribal deck. And a Zombie tribal deck. And an-
I'd say there was definitely a power gap between decks played here but eh that's just what happens sometimes when you have a powerful deck and all you get is the ramp. Three decks with blue and not one single counterspell is hilarious. Also me: searches to find a game where Eddie had a bad game wanting some vindication for his good luck...fail to find lol
Shout out to the six other film nerds who laughed out loud at the Back to the Future joke. ✊ Edit: I really dig the changes. You got it all. Facecams, turn counters, life counters, card preview, and even the little notes explaining the edits and making jokes and such. Nice touch. fairly minimal glare on cards. The only improvement I could see made it the lighting, which is fairly well done but pretty flat. I understand the reasoning with what I assume is a green/digi green/blue screen but you can shape it around the players. Then with a little more fiddling, probably get rid of even the least glare on the clearest card, no matter the sleeves. You don't have to live like this. Holla at your MN local neighborhood Best Boy Electric/Gaffer.

I second what Odhran said.
Just thankful for more great episodes. Your gameplay videos are second to none!
i really like this new overlay!
Layout and sound are great!
It doesn't matter what kind of color combination Eddie plays, in his heart, he's always playing Simic
Eddie has taught us a valuable lesson about a certain minimum of basic lands...that miss on the search was glorious.
Lmao knew that was going to be commented as soon as I saw it 😂 I always try for at least 3 basics of the colors even in a 5 color deck but sometimes I'll take 1 out. But damn only had 2 basic plains in a 2 color deck??
@@gr1nder07 3, he just had that third in his hand already.

YAY! I love the Janklord team, I am waiting to see them all seated playing at their dungeon soon.
I love these post-it notes they are a great addition! Keep up the good work and keep the content coming!
loving the "Pop Up Video" effects!
The dog failing to find a land was a little ruff
But he does have Vigilance. In other words, he protecc, he attac, but most important, he no fetch Plains bacc.
I love the video format with the notes popping up
This format is much easier to follow along
Your hard work definitely shone through wonderful work!
Fun deck idea could be Firesong and sunspeaker dragons approach
Hail to the Janklord! But also it is so weird to see you guys with fetch lands, those can't be under 79 cents!
I love that you guys do not only explain the game mechanics with those pop-up post-it, but you also explain things like "j'accuse" at 25:45 with pop references. That's both hilarious and kind.
Always a good day when I see a new episode of Close Quarters :)

It's so common in pods to have one person be a recurring archenemy, and the dynamic with Eddie is so fun to watch every time he manages to pull ahead.
Because he is good at deck building and doesn't restrict himself to budget.

Eddie making boros feel like simic. Great game fellas!
the first 7 minutes of this game has to be hands down the most prolific amount of ramping I've ever seen in a pod xD that was nutty
Damn I just love paper Magic so much!!! Always so much fun to watch, another great video guys!!!

I'm in love with the Zelda Ancient Tomb
This was a great episode! Quest for the janklord are some of my favorite people in the mtg space
Eddie showing his hand to us, I nearly spit my coffee laughing
Ed, Edd, & Eddy, SSX Tricky, and Legend of Zelda? Cultured gentlemen, the lot of you.
Eddie didnt need the wheel he could have just enlightened tutor to put reservoir on the top
Looks like a great pod. Good luck gentlemen!
"Send us your comments from the future to help us!"
Eddie plays Ignite the Future so on theme lol
Great stuff. I like having the explanation/joke about the cut on the post it note
Omg I love this layout so clean. Good job guys!
Fingers crossed Eddy gets to use a star of extension board wipe. Dying to see that play with F&S.
Couple it with Repercussion for an out of nowhere win against a packed board :)
Happy to see janklords on here.
Hey! Looks like a fun game!
Edit: Heyyy, wait a minute why are the QFTJL people playing non budget? Did they finally escape the demon?
Eddie having 501 life is one of the reasons I love Mill decks
Or just plain old commander damage
@@DarkEinherjar I'm not a fan of infinite combos but they do provide a way around life gain decks
The Quest for the Janklord guys are always hilarious!
Love the style of this video! Keep up the good work and gameplay ;)
Can I ask why he has Loyal Warhound in the deck but it is missing in the Decklist from eddie down in the description?
Our boys from Quest For The Janklord doing what they do best!!😎 GO JOHN AND JOE!!!🥳🥳🥳🥳🥰🥰
They really are so fun to watch
@@starmanda88 they’re the best!🥰
That opening song is a bop !!!!
How do you have 3 plains in a boros deck where all the ramp cards are for plains
I love these gameplay episodes, just wish you would put them out more frequently.
1:01:17 I myself was more of a Moby and Zoe fan in SSX Tricky. I feel the same way about the music. So good and the DJ in 3 was awesome. I was sad to see Eddie relegated to basically a skin in 3. For my money SSX Tricky and SSX 3 where the high points of the whole series.
Great video, super enjoyable and hilarious! Love your channel
I like the pop up video pop ups.
YESSSSS Firesong and Sunspeaker is one of my favorite commander. Go Taurens!
SWEET!!! WATCHING NOW!!!!!
The new format is smooth! Almost as smooth as the Twins signing Correa 🙂
Yay, more closequarters! I love this series.
The best commander gameplay there is!!
Yo! More Janklord matchups please!
Eddie was also my favorite character in SSX Tricky! Its tricky !
@33:30 - There is a token for Timeless Witness. I got one in a pack.
I'm a simple man, I see Close Quarters episode, I click
That Back to the Future joke was amazing, lol
the new layout looks fantastic nice job!
Quick point, 3 creatures + 4 players should be 35 life, minus the 5 life Eddie should have been at 70
Eddie's voice goes smoother every day

I also have a blue sleeved Yarok deck, although more focused on lands.

Hi Turx. Are you the Turx? Based on your comment, I assume so
I wish my Esper could ramp like Boros just did. I run around _twenty_ ramp sources (more or less, depending on your definition), at least fifteen of which cost 2 or less, and I'm _still_ lucky to open any at all without having to mulligan multiple times.

I'm so glad I wasn't the only person who noticed this
He could have used enlightened tutor during his upkeep, so no real reason not to use valakut awakening
Fun game! What's the life tracker app that you guys use?
Moxtopper!
When Eddie played molten disaster he did 20 in total to players and 15 to creatures for a total of 35, so he should have gained 30 not 25
Didn't he do 5 to himself
@@yayforjoe yes, but he gains back the five he deals to himself so that just becomes net five less
I really want to know what app they are using to track life!
Moxtopper!
IOS ONLY?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I like the camera setup!
Look, John ISN'T playing a Changeling tribal deck. He's playing a Lord tribal deck. And an Angel tribal deck. And a Human tribal deck. And a Zombie tribal deck. And an-
Amazing game. Love you channel.
What life counter are you using?
maybe it was already answered but is that Zelda ancient tomb available somewhere? It looks so good.
There is in fact a token for Timeless Witness

Three decks with blue and not one single counterspell is hilarious. Also me: searches to find a game where Eddie had a bad game wanting some vindication for his good luck...fail to find lol
Good thing Eddie learned his lesson from failing to find and played all basics in his Kahmal/Sakasheema deck.
Note to Eddie: cast Spectral Shift on your doggie and he can fetch you mountains

Yayyyy joe is using yaroooooook hell yeah
What is the app you used for life? Great content by the way.
Thank you! Moxtopper!
44:35 "I'm playing with peasants" had me laughing.
Hey Eddie is playing Boros! The literal polar opposite of Simic
Mitch and 5C Decks, like bread and more bread
50:40 Eddie finally found a plains. Lol
Anyway we can get our hands on such an ancient tombe? It is so pretty :)
@The Commander's Quarters. Mitch, why did you not search for Blackblade Reforged first, so you could search for almost anything after that???
Love your games! :D Could you please link the app you're using to track life and damage?
"And I guess Eddie is here too."
Poor Eddie 😂
Mitch keeps forgetting to add his life from creatures entering
Does anyone knows what life tracking app they are using? I like the way they long press to track commander damage!
Look out! Eddy's got a fist full of mountains!
He gained the right amount of life because the damage is divided between the 2 targets.
Was that playmat being used my Mitch a Kickstarter? That looks awesome!
Jon’s deck: “oops all changelings”
EDDIE why did you not use the enlightened tutor to aetherflux reservoir when you casted commune with lava?
Am I wrong in saying the shatterskull smashing shouldn't have dealt damage due to the hexproof from the heroic intervention?
hoping for more of these , increase frequency pretty please :)
What's that life tracker app? I like how it tracks commander damage
More of dis please.
Drain Eddie!
What is the name of the life counter app? Looks amazing
