Always a good ep when ayli is on. Really wish that 19 card epic would have gone off to see how crazy it could have been. Really hoping even more eps with her in the future :-)
I agree, except that I'm happy it was countered. Dumb not to counter it... but do we know whether she could have kept some manna back for a counterspell to protect her play?
I left the channel for a reason and it’s definitely great to see the channel doing much better! Great episode to come back to. Refreshing to see much more friendlier games!
My favorite part of Riku is the weird math you have to do with it. “Is it worth it to play riku and copy a spell?” Ayli had spent 19 for the x of her Experiment. She could have spent 7 of that to play and activate Riku. Then she would have had 2 experiments with x=12.
Oh don’t get me wrong. I’m 1000% monday morning quarterbacking here. I would also worry about time if I played on camera. I worry about wasting time whenever I play at an lgs and I think about better plays on the car ride after as it is.
I really appreciate the introduction of your decks (commanders) and strategies at the beginning. Very cool and gives me some kind of a different feeling, when the matchup starts. Sometimes I play the same commander, but with a different strategy, so you gave me to another viewpoint, on what I can change in my deck.
I just built a mono blue deck called "Mills, Thrills, and Planeswalkers. It's several Jace's and 26 counters. It was built to just piss people off and make them upset. I'm only about a year back into playing MTG, definitely gonna hop in that Patreon and Discord!
Always really fun to watch a game from this channel. I honestly don't even know how I'd gauge my decks' power levels if I ever played with IHYD. My friends and I have never really had that kind of discussion or anything, we just kinda played and upgraded to match if we weren't up to snuff. XD I miss when I could do that.
So this is basically a pod directly out of my tool box. Neheb was my very first deck that I built, and Riku was the first deck I built. Awesome. It is hard to root for any one particular, such good decks.
@@IHateYourDeck Rapid Hybridization was also played after priority passed @ 25:25. He did not respond to anticipation, the spell failed to yield results and then he decided to play the Rapid Hybridization. You won :)
@@IHateYourDeck no because Lynch still had priority on the cast and after Lynch passed priority that is when Steven chose to counter. doesn't matter if someone says pass if they don't even have the priority anyway.
"i was dead as soon as you countered my spell" me everytime i get controlled in a magic game. anyway, i would have loved to see the epic experiment for x19
I agree. She probably could have gotten away with leaving some mana open for potential interaction. Even if she didn't have any, she could at least threated it.
It was a huge miss play. If you can see blue mana up, and you commit to something that strongly, do yourself a favor and back it up with your own interaction. No one in their right mind would’ve let that resolve if they could stop it
To be fair. Sometimes it's hard to play against blue if you don't have your protections up. You're stuck between not playing at all or try and taking out their counter spells
I am going to die on this hill but Talrand is so underestimated as a commander option! The deck can be built fairly cheap and it builds itself. Cantrips, redirect spells, counterspells, copy spells and mana rocks and boom, you're golden. Create some Drakes early in the game and then build up for late game when everybodys life is lower. I've gotten 23 Drakes on the field once which is lethal (unless your opponent is playing lifegain 🙄)
Lynch : Play your strongest deck... Steven: *plays Talrand* Nice to see some Talrand rep! That's wassup Steven! I am interested in the build you went with. I am currently reconstructing my Talrand, and I hadn't tried running Archmage Emeritus in that deck. Seems solid! I have been running a Polymorph combo version (Lab Man/Enter the Inf) of Talrand, but I am considering dropping that aspect and going pure drakes. It was good to see your take while I reconsider my strategy.
Hey! Sorry for such a long wait, hope you see this. I have a polymorph package in mine too just in case the drakes can’t cut it. That way it’s not only just playing spells. I also have a few big beaters in there. Not running labman in mine though. Got stuff like the new Jin-gitaxias, hull breaker horror.. stuff like that. Thanks for watching!
My fav deck is Riku (colors) Insanity, the point of the deck is to put everything on everyone's hand on the board, and everyone gets a copy of everything. Let the chaos ensue 😈
Lynch, you're a solid dude & you're content is excellent! But hey, where's your TooL T-shirt 👕?! I too will be ordering some Uncle Sky's! I just hope it doesn't put me on my porcelain crown for hours on end!
I'm amazed by this table just continuing to to have fun over their wins being stopped. I'd bet my LGS would just pee their pants and be mad for the rest of the game.
Great to see the positivity building man! Everyone seems to be hitting high notes these days. To Ayli remember, turnabout is artifacts too!! It was worth the chance going big there.
I would have cast reku then copied the epic experiment for two of 11 for a total of 22 cards instead of 19 still works cause even omniscience is just 9 mana
With epic Experiment x=19 she had 21 mana, couldnt she just cast her commander cast epic Experiment for 12 and copy ist with riku? Would resolve in 2 copys of epic for x=12 right?
The fact that Ayli made so many threats about interaction with all that mana open and no one was putting pressure on her was kinda infuriating. Make her use it.
There are many fun Preconstructed Decks that I would recommend. Like Lathril then just buy some new upgrades like Cratorhoof. It’s a fun deck easy to slowly upgrade and still have fun.
@@bgeda everyone starting with the active player would get a chance to get priority again after anything resolves. not just after the cast of anticipation
You can't, but most players will let you because, as you said, there's no opportunity for interaction anyway, so it's not like you gain any information by doing that. And everyone mistaps sometimes.
Wawww, he chose to change the target of the bounce to aggravated assault & didn't get a take back counter, but a takes back counter was given because he miscounted the cmc of a card early game????? I don't get it.
Epic experiment for 19 was just too greedy. Even if it was true that no combination of spells in her deck would have won her the game, no one would have bought that statement. With 21 mana, she could just have casted riku first, epic experiment for 10, then copied it with riku, at least one copy would have resolved or at least that would have drawn 2 counterspells out.

Is skylar the official co-host yet? Bring the spice!!!!
I second this! Dude is a character!
I hope so
Heck yeah!!!!! Hot sauce forever. Skylar definitely should be the co-host
Yes he rocks!
Skylar is pretty awesome!
The hot sauce shots make the take-backsies counters so much spicier :D
1000 Scoville
Love seeing Skylar more he’s a good fun dude
Agree.
I love seeing games with Ayli and Skylar, they are both so cool and have great personalities and their differing power levels are always fun to watch
14:12 was definitely the slickest counterspell cast I've ever seen!
Seeing high power control is so crazy to watch. 4 people all countering and instanting. So funky.
Always a good ep when ayli is on. Really wish that 19 card epic would have gone off to see how crazy it could have been. Really hoping even more eps with her in the future :-)
I agree, except that I'm happy it was countered. Dumb not to counter it... but do we know whether she could have kept some manna back for a counterspell to protect her play?
@@jjakjjak5231 sadly. I prolly shoulda kept it for that reason but I used it on skylar. But he did less than expected
This is my favorite content on TH-cam!! Thank you for everyone involved for making this happen!
I left the channel for a reason and it’s definitely great to see the channel doing much better! Great episode to come back to. Refreshing to see much more friendlier games!
Why did you leave? =/
@@felipeattux9616 That's what I wanna know lmao
This game was an absolute war of interaction, awesome game!
My favorite part of Riku is the weird math you have to do with it. “Is it worth it to play riku and copy a spell?” Ayli had spent 19 for the x of her Experiment. She could have spent 7 of that to play and activate Riku. Then she would have had 2 experiments with x=12.
Haven't experienced that yet with the two riku decks I've encountered pingers and pirates.
and it would have been harder to deal with.
She would’ve been able to resolve one of those as well instead of wasting an entire turn for nothing.
I prolly koulda but. I figured it be mor flashy. Plus sometime I feel pressured by the time it take me to calculate all the math. On camera. Oh well.
Oh don’t get me wrong. I’m 1000% monday morning quarterbacking here. I would also worry about time if I played on camera. I worry about wasting time whenever I play at an lgs and I think about better plays on the car ride after as it is.
Ayli’s 19 cards would’ve been cool to see
Fun police said no
I just don't get why she didn't cast her commander and copy it to look at 11 cards twice
I might be wrong on the mana it could be ten twice but still more then 19 and not a wasted turn after
I really appreciate the introduction of your decks (commanders) and strategies at the beginning. Very cool and gives me some kind of a different feeling, when the matchup starts.

You get better with practice. Do the pregame. Afterwards so the post game talk. Get better at communicating. It always helps. All the best.
Lynch, love your videos 🖤
Keep it up man
You always make my day
Hope you are doing great and wish you all the best!!
If Epic Epxeriment resolved the results could have been Epic!
So this is basically a pod directly out of my tool box. Neheb was my very first deck that I built, and Riku was the first deck I built. Awesome. It is hard to root for any one particular, such good decks.
Best commander channel out there. Love what you guys are doing, never stop!!!
Hey Arnold shirt? Ayli is already my favorite. Leeettts goooo.
I like the laser cigar cutter thing.
Both cuts your cigar AND lights it!
Steven said pass on the cast of Neheb at 16:58, but when Lynch said he will pass Steven decided to mana drain...
Yeah we missed that. We should have made him take a hot sauce shot fir a take backsies counter. Casual gaming at its best!
I was making a joke implying lynch would just pass without doing anything! I said it dryly though and it just didn’t come out well haha
@@IHateYourDeck Rapid Hybridization was also played after priority passed @ 25:25. He did not respond to anticipation, the spell failed to yield results and then he decided to play the Rapid Hybridization. You won :)

I would love to see a curse deck with Lynde as commander.
Nice round again !
I see Skylar, I Smash Like. Best Commander show. Amazing work Lynch and Co. Thank you guys for such a fun show.
Ayli does a great job and announcing what lands she plays. /s
Finally broke down and bought some Uncle Sky's! Can't wait to try it out
It’s so good!!!
I wanna start calling Bird tokens Joshes specifically if Talrand is on the field or is the commander.
Man legit had that sauce in a holster! Love it!
"i was dead as soon as you countered my spell"
me everytime i get controlled in a magic game. anyway, i would have loved to see the epic experiment for x19
"I'm not wearing a tool shirt" lol love how that's the first thing in the video
This is such a funny matchup - mono red vs storm/spellslinger vs control x2
XD
Ayli went a little too strong at a table with two other blue players. It was a great play though.
I agree. She probably could have gotten away with leaving some mana open for potential interaction. Even if she didn't have any, she could at least threated it.
It was a huge miss play. If you can see blue mana up, and you commit to something that strongly, do yourself a favor and back it up with your own interaction. No one in their right mind would’ve let that resolve if they could stop it

I've gotten 23 Drakes on the field once which is lethal (unless your opponent is playing lifegain 🙄)
Yeah lots of fun builds!
According to EDHrec, Talrand is the third most played mono-U commander after Orvar and Urza, that's definitely not what I'd call underestimated ...
Man, that deck from Ayli was fire, I really wanna see it coming back :) or any other deck, she has top Magic powers 🤩
33:19 - "Maybe your not too dumb after all." lol lol
Lynch : Play your strongest deck...
Steven: *plays Talrand*
Nice to see some Talrand rep! That's wassup Steven! I am interested in the build you went with. I am currently reconstructing my Talrand, and I hadn't tried running Archmage Emeritus in that deck. Seems solid!

"im in pain i need a doctor" XD lmao!

29:55 lmfao Ayli's face when she grills Skylar like "You son of a bitch..." after she mentions the countered Epic Experiment. 😆
Still diggin the energy. Keep the gameplay comin!
Check out Abjure for the Talrand deck. It's a great counter spell in that deck.
I have a talrand deck but it isn't on the same level as the one shown here. Holy crap
The group this episode was awesome!
Wow it was fun having Skylar back! I hope he becomes a regular cast member. Likewise for ayli
Guys, thanks for great show !!!
After watching five straight turns of anxious sandbagging, all I have to say is: "who is the beatdown?"
Lynch, you're a solid dude & you're content is excellent! But hey, where's your TooL T-shirt 👕?!
I too will be ordering some Uncle Sky's! I just hope it doesn't put me on my porcelain crown for hours on end!
I was so hyped for that epic experiment! Too bad it was countered ^^
Hahaha the I'm not wearing a roll shirt intro lmao
Tool!
Sad that Lynch missed that his treasure nabber would steal Skylar's bridge whenever he tapped it. That would be mean but in a fun way
I had a surgery today and am in quite a lot of pain, being able to watch this has really helped me though. Thanks Lynch and gang.
Glad we could help.
Hope you feel better soon Liam
I absolutely love Skylar 😂 he’s hilarious
Co-host Skylar?? Like that would be awesome! Also Cassius popping up too
I'm amazed by this table just continuing to to have fun over their wins being stopped. I'd bet my LGS would just pee their pants and be mad for the rest of the game.
Counterspell in all of its incarnation being my favourite MtG card of all time, I really loved this game.
Kaldheim Commander Deck? think of buying this deck start out with good idea? or bad idea?
i have a budget talrand commander deck thats basically
all counters and spells and no one likes when i play it but i find it alot of fun
Fun as always, keep it up
Ayli, 100% should have held the expansion.
I would get so anxious playing against a monoblue interaction deck
We understand!
We hate your deck but love Lynch
Is it bad that I want to play my Phelddagrif "Wholesome Acceleration" deck in a pod of 3 "oops, all interaction!" decks?
Too much counterspells on this episode. Too much blue!! xD
Great content, Ayli is an AWESOME addition.
Your constant looping background music that never stops whistling is causing my dog to lose is mind
Great to see the positivity building man! Everyone seems to be hitting high notes these days.
To Ayli remember, turnabout is artifacts too!! It was worth the chance going big there.
Creatures, lands, OR artifacts
Was I wrong but at 13.49 ayli counterspell hot sauce man then he untaps and goes to his turn skips lynchs turn completely
Everyone boo Skylar for his insolence in counter ayilis spell
Can he cast that rapid hibridization AFTER he passed priority???
Have you made a video about Athreos god of passage yet?
I would have cast reku then copied the epic experiment for two of 11 for a total of 22 cards instead of 19 still works cause even omniscience is just 9 mana
I gotta see that riku decklist!
With epic Experiment x=19 she had 21 mana, couldnt she just cast her commander cast epic Experiment for 12 and copy ist with riku? Would resolve in 2 copys of epic for x=12 right?
The fact that Ayli made so many threats about interaction with all that mana open and no one was putting pressure on her was kinda infuriating. Make her use it.
Great game
Happy to see Ayli show up for these
Hi I have been watching your show and I'm new to Mtg. If I had a $100 what deck would you recommend?
There are many fun Preconstructed Decks that I would recommend. Like Lathril then just buy some new upgrades like Cratorhoof. It’s a fun deck easy to slowly upgrade and still have fun.
Song at the end is 🔥🤌🏽.
This game was really enjoyable for me but it's probably because I'm a filthy Izzet mage
Please make Skylar the cohost!!!
BRO TALRAND IS AWESOME
Is it me or is Ayli looking at Lynch's hand at 36:50 ?
skylar passes priority on aggravated assault then when steven cant respond skylar decides to cast something?
Yeah we all missed it. He should have taken a hot sauce shot for a take backsies counter.
@@IHateYourDeck all good, im new to magic so i was more curious if there was something i missed that let him do that
He passes priority on aggravated assault, but after the anticipate spell resolve he have to do it again and in that moment he can cast the removal
Steven casts anticipate giving Skylar priority after Lynch passes priority again.
@@bgeda everyone starting with the active player would get a chance to get priority again after anything resolves. not just after the cast of anticipation
This game is the perfect example of why Ayli is my favorite player. Her turns go off.
17:20 passes priority and then says he'll Mana Drain?
A jogada com Epic Experiment foi a melhor! Foi incrível, partida muito divertida!
Is it possible to get Steven's deck list?
Join our Patreon community and Tier 3 and up get access to all our deck lists. Plus you can play in our Patreon exclusive discord with us!!!
I feel like all the interaction didn’t let us see everyone’s deck go off.
It happens to the best of us right?
Interaction is the best part of MtG and EDH
if there to many multicolor decks going on well place hall of gemstone would be nice to make all one color each person turn what color never know
Yay.... blue counter spell deck that creates free creatures from casting those counter spells wins... Blue is so fun /s
I just learned that you can actually take back mana abilities because it doesn’t use the stack
You can't, but most players will let you because, as you said, there's no opportunity for interaction anyway, so it's not like you gain any information by doing that. And everyone mistaps sometimes.
Powerful magic
Foil gives haste. XD
Im new at magic... wtf was going on on ayli's board? She a godess of magic 😮
27:33 well actually am pretty sure land’s don’t have color Identities
Correct.
Wawww, he chose to change the target of the bounce to aggravated assault & didn't get a take back counter, but a takes back counter was given because he miscounted the cmc of a card early game????? I don't get it.
Epic experiment for 19 was just too greedy. Even if it was true that no combination of spells in her deck would have won her the game, no one would have bought that statement. With 21 mana, she could just have casted riku first, epic experiment for 10, then copied it with riku, at least one copy would have resolved or at least that would have drawn 2 counterspells out.
Awesome :D
Hope to see some fun slow Janky decks ( :
