+Bryan Chilcote all of her appearances on the Jimmy Pardo podcast Never Not Funny are incredibly funny and charming and proof that she has always had the chops. :)
+Dadirucso Yeah, tbh I was a liiiitle bit disappointed Day9 didn't 'interact' as much as he usually does and focused more on the game instead, with that awesome a guest.
+Geek & Sundry What a delightful episode! You really did get absolutely crushed, Sean! I'm a long time magic player, but that doesn't stop me from enjoying your show. I like your guests, and these brutal games are super entertaining! Keep up the good work, one day Abzan will get there!
+Geek & Sundry I love Ms. Varney! I listen to her podcast, and loved her in Korra and TAH.. she's fantastic! However, I would rather see her as the Captain Marvel this world needs ;)
There's been some cool guests this season, but I'd really like to see people who are more into Magic and didn't just start playing recently. Don't have to be competitive players or anything, just people who've been playing it on and off for years like most of us.
+Rebazar It was so much more fun to watch Sean and LSV play with the clash packs then it is these new players. Just watching people gloat over mediocre plays and mediocre creatures is just not fun.
+Smeagol the Vile well if you say that they should gloat only at good cards then there aren't any outside of Siege Rhino/Collected company and windswept heath in that clash pack. Also Janet played pretty good. They realy realy realy need established deck somehow because those duel decks or clash packs never have enough removal or board wipes to stabilize the board when you fall behind. It creates very snowbally games like have been happening in the last few episodes.
+Derek Barnett I hope you are joking. The basic cards in blue are very terrible in standard these days. Only the Dissolve/silumgar scorn/dig through time/treasure cruise and the likes are good. Those cards would never be played on this show. They don't play good custom deck. They play sealed products. Blue is the worse color in limited imo. Name me one creature that is good in blue. Outside of Pearl Lake, Silumgar's and Ojutai's and maybe Icefall Regents, none are played. Sean would get crushed by an average creature deck unless he had unreasonable amount of good counterspells ... which they don't use.
Humstuck wow. Chill bro, I don't have a PhD in MtG. Sean regularly hates on blue and I enjoy playing blue. It's as simple as that. This isn't some tournament advice forum, it's a TH-cam comment.
+FenrisWolfUy you are correct she did forget too draw she had 4 cards in her hand when her turn started and than she had two by the end but it appears she never drew her card for that turn
9:04 "The Offer & The Rejection" 9:10 "The Realization". I have rewatched this episode multiple times, and never get tired of the back-and-forth. Best guest/host interaction that I personally can remember. Truth.
I'm not familiar with her work, but I can safely say that Janet is one of the best guests they've ever had on Spellslingers. She's adorable, hilarious, enthusiastic, AND she crushed Sean with the best two-colour combination in Magic. Well done, Ms. Varney. Welcome to the Selesnya Conclave!
+Patrick Marlett maybe he didn't realise. With the cameras, the multiple possible cuts and theatrical they are doing, they can easily miss it. Imo its alright.
+Humstuck I hear ya. He's usually pretty attentive though - noting mistakes or potential plays of his opponent, especially newer players... (Didn't miss his Lifelink, haha). The fact of the matter is, Korra still won. I mean, Janet.
+Sekan13 Wil said on Tumblr they are both looking forward to it, but the timing hasn't been right (Wil's schedule to hectic when spellslingers had openings).
I think this might be my favorite episode, great banter and i appreciate bringing beginer players on, it helps for players who dont know to much about magic to learn with them. My wife really connected with Janet and anything that might get her interested in adding Magic to our game nights is fine by me.
+wobbly sauce Yeah, and it used it on a white against a green deck. I would prefer to wait in that situation, Green White decks usually sounds like they are gonna wait to drop a bomb.
+CrowMercury i think he makes critical errors for noobs to exploit on purpose. If you watch a lot of his videos for spell slingers he doesn't go hard core on them.
I think this just became my new favourite episode. Sean & Janet just sparkle together, their chemistry is fantastic and they looked like they were genuinely having so much fun filming this. Can't wait to see the gag reel!
god damn it. i love her so much. normaly i am no fanboy at all. but hell, korra was such a great show. and after it ended i realized that miss varney is actually a realy cool person herselfe.
21:46-22:04 that transition from slightly hopeful to just sarcastic is just hilarious. Especially after he lays down the Longshot Squad. The way he brings out that creature followed by his explanation, you can almost taste the sarcasm as it oozes out of his voice lol.
I just started magic because of this show and I have to say, I would really enjoy playing with people like her. I get that this can be a strategy-heavy game and there will be people who just want to concentrate on the game on itself...but I rather just banter and add some life into my matches.
Harvey Hale I actually have the most fun with people who try and play the most interesting interactions. Yeah it's cool that she digs the flavor text but that would get old after a while because at the end of the day it's still a shitty card.
I have those two clash decks myself. which is why I knew she would win. I have played like 10 duels so far with them and every time the green white one won. still loved the ep! Great guest.
That was awesome, but I wish Sean had done the thing where he starts looking at the rest of his deck to see when he would have drawn his next Ultimate Price or other game saving removal. I loved the time he did that and it was the very next card.
1. I think that is the first time I've seen the cards go so well for the challenger.....entertaining game. 2. I think I love that girl, her personality seems amazing!
Her episode and Alison Haislip's have been my favorite so far!! Please bring them back sometime(along with Esper Roberson and Allie Brosh!! All-Stars Season?).
I think this has been the most entertaining spellslingers hands down. I am sorry to see Sean smashed so badly in it but the banter was amazing! So many laughs to be had!
Okay let's have a short PSA for anyone about to post in the comment section. Are you about to point out an incorrect interaction for the video? STOP AND THINK Go back to that point in the video, read the relevant rule text TWICE. If you are still sure that a mistake was made, then you may comment. Irresponsible comments cause distress to literally tens of autistic magic players every video as they are compelled to correct you. Remember. STOP. THINK. READ.
I guess this show isn't returning? Someone from the show stated that it would be returning early 2016. well seeing as 4 Magic expansions have passed with no new episodes it seems IMO this show has seen it's end.

Sean is like the tutorial boss of a video game.
When the game is not dark souls of course
hopefully there is a new season!
Despite being a huge fan of Legend of Korra, I had no idea Janet is hilarious.
She's pretty darn funny. I've seen her on a few other shows. She's always pretty darn funny.
+Bryan Chilcote Besides her acting roles, Janet Varney is first and foremost an improv comedian, so she's using that skill set to great effect.
+Bryan Chilcote all of her appearances on the Jimmy Pardo podcast Never Not Funny are incredibly funny and charming and proof that she has always had the chops. :)
+Bryan Chilcote she has a great podcast too called the J V club
Yes, the JV Club is lovely!
"They are designed to be played against each other, and to be a fairly balanced match up, so..." - Sean, famous last words
Janet is probably one of my favourite guests so far. Hilarious person
+Dadirucso She really is, she was a hoot on Co-optitude as well
+Dadirucso Seconded. I smiled the entire time.
+Dadirucso Yeah, tbh I was a liiiitle bit disappointed Day9 didn't 'interact' as much as he usually does and focused more on the game instead, with that awesome a guest.
+Dadirucso you are just attracted to here
+charlie otero Sure she's attractive, but she's also very charming and incredibly funny.
Sean Plott is beginning to understand what it's like to be Wil Wheaton.
Dragonivon what do you mean? Does Will Weston have to deal with annoying lucky people all the time? I haven't seen enough tabletop to know lol.
No Wil Wheaton is legendary in his bad luck
Janet Varney is the Elf Princess this world needs!
+Geek & Sundry I loved Legend of Korra!!!!
+Geek & Sundry What a delightful episode! You really did get absolutely crushed, Sean!
I'm a long time magic player, but that doesn't stop me from enjoying your show. I like your guests, and these brutal games are super entertaining! Keep up the good work, one day Abzan will get there!
+Geek & Sundry Lol, omg she is amazing! laughs for days, thanks
+Geek & Sundry I love Ms. Varney! I listen to her podcast, and loved her in Korra and TAH.. she's fantastic! However, I would rather see her as the Captain Marvel this world needs ;)
+Geek & Sundry Janet looks like ZeldaXD...
I absolutely love her energy! I can totally believe she's the voice behind kora
Janet's the best kind of shit talker. Good humored but ruthless. Love it.
There's been some cool guests this season, but I'd really like to see people who are more into Magic and didn't just start playing recently. Don't have to be competitive players or anything, just people who've been playing it on and off for years like most of us.
+Rebazar It was so much more fun to watch Sean and LSV play with the clash packs then it is these new players. Just watching people gloat over mediocre plays and mediocre creatures is just not fun.
+Rebazar I enjoy the comedians playing magic and playing weird and funny cards in EDH, like Warp World and Scrambleverse.
Red Chaos!
Kizer5Red Except they arent playing crazy edh cards they are playing sub par standard decks...
+Smeagol the Vile well if you say that they should gloat only at good cards then there aren't any outside of Siege Rhino/Collected company and windswept heath in that clash pack. Also Janet played pretty good. They realy realy realy need established deck somehow because those duel decks or clash packs never have enough removal or board wipes to stabilize the board when you fall behind. It creates very snowbally games like have been happening in the last few episodes.
+Humstuck well that's one of the problems of limiting it to standard. Id rather them play kitchen table casual decks if the decks played better
SHE IS A MASTER OF ALL ELEMENTS
Islands
Forests
Mountains
Plains
Only the Planeswalker can master all four basic lands.
@@TobyBW what about swamp
"Trying to be as sweet about it as I can... while I crush you." Sounds a lot like Korra actually.
Come to the blue side, Sean. Give in to your hatred.
+Chase “Crash” Doman he has to willingly turn. Otherwise it's a hollow victory. lol
+Chase “Crash” Doman Full agreement. Mill is fucking evil.
+Chase “Crash” Doman... on you end step...
+Derek Barnett I hope you are joking. The basic cards in blue are very terrible in standard these days. Only the Dissolve/silumgar scorn/dig through time/treasure cruise and the likes are good. Those cards would never be played on this show. They don't play good custom deck. They play sealed products. Blue is the worse color in limited imo. Name me one creature that is good in blue.

If Sean would play against Wil Wheaton, would they both lose?
I mean Wheaton is only truly hopeless when it comes to dice games, so he might actually beat Sean
@@GodBear97 No dice so Will would probably win
This is good question.
Someone give her elf ears! Would fit hella nice with that hairstyle :D
Just pointing out 2 missed lifelink instances from the war oracle
+Khalid Mubarak Also, I think that Janet forgot to draw before playing the giant at 10:56
+FenrisWolfUy you are correct she did forget too draw she had 4 cards in her hand when her turn started and than she had two by the end but it appears she never drew her card for that turn
+Khalid Mubarak and the ainok when it blocked the giant
Thank youuuuu
+waikikitiger actually, shrouding mist didn't prevent it. It would only do so if the giant was renound, which unfortunately it wasn't
She's Korra's voice actress? That's pretty awesome.
She's pretty damn cute too.
In a step mom type of way
9:04 "The Offer & The Rejection" 9:10 "The Realization". I have rewatched this episode multiple times, and never get tired of the back-and-forth. Best guest/host interaction that I personally can remember. Truth.
"My favorite pie is the whole pie."
~ Sean Plott 2015
I'm not familiar with her work, but I can safely say that Janet is one of the best guests they've ever had on Spellslingers. She's adorable, hilarious, enthusiastic, AND she crushed Sean with the best two-colour combination in Magic. Well done, Ms. Varney. Welcome to the Selesnya Conclave!
She should have 23 life at the end of the match, not 16. That War Oracle has Lifelink.
+MrDivinecomedy Kinda messed up Sean didn't say anything... He had to have known.
+Patrick Marlett maybe he didn't realise. With the cameras, the multiple possible cuts and theatrical they are doing, they can easily miss it. Imo its alright.
+Humstuck I hear ya. He's usually pretty attentive though - noting mistakes or potential plays of his opponent, especially newer players... (Didn't miss his Lifelink, haha). The fact of the matter is, Korra still won. I mean, Janet.
+Patrick Marlett I think taking 19 damage to the face distracted him
Glad to know I'm not the only one who was bothered by that little discrepancy.
Good job, editing.
You did well.
She was beautifully sadistic this whole time and I loved it. Loved Legend of Korra, too.
I love Janet's energy when she said "Thank you for helping me crush you."
Holy crap, Korra playing Magic. Thats pretty intense
Janet is an absolute treasure.
she has the loveliest smile and even better laugh. Janet made this episode fantastic
I wonder if she ever bought him that whole pie.
I see the wheton curse is stretching to sean now... You might want to fight will (in a magic duel) to break the curse.
+Sekan13 That would be such a good episode
+Sekan13 Wil said on Tumblr they are both looking forward to it, but the timing hasn't been right (Wil's schedule to hectic when spellslingers had openings).
+Sekan13 In before it ends in a draw.
"Exorcism in progress" :P
Defintely the best episode this season, loved Janet. Smiled throughout the whole episode
Was there any doubt that the Avatar would lose? Also I could not stop picturing Korra whenever Janet talked lol
23:06 Janet's troll-face is best troll-face. XD
Okay, at 8:36, the "Pick me!" bits. Did anyone else have flashbacks to Might and Magic 6/7?
+aetherspoon OH GOD YES I HAD
+aetherspoon I am the one you want. Pick me! You want to pick me. Choose me. I will serve.
joesamsally Oh, come on! Pick me! Please?
+aetherspoon Wooow, solid reference.
+aetherspoon Hell yeah... IIRC, had one during the season preview as well.
Invite Boogie2988 to play!!! He talks about this show all the time and wants to be on!
+Rye Cribby Tree Make it another two headed. Reynad & Boogie vs Day9 and Trump
+Dustin Breakey You mean one good player vs none?
+MC Malzahar isn't that always the case?
YES! Invite Boogie2988!!
Best idea!!!! He has always wanted to be on!!
I think this might be my favorite episode, great banter and i appreciate bringing beginer players on, it helps for players who dont know to much about magic to learn with them. My wife really connected with Janet and anything that might get her interested in adding Magic to our game nights is fine by me.
Outland Colossus = The green Abyss. If you don't have the murder spell, that card is tough to deal with.
But as he said.. he did have one.
+wobbly sauce Yeah, and it used it on a white against a green deck. I would prefer to wait in that situation, Green White decks usually sounds like they are gonna wait to drop a bomb.
+CrowMercury i think he makes critical errors for noobs to exploit on purpose. If you watch a lot of his videos for spell slingers he doesn't go hard core on them.
Well, i don't know for sure, all I can say is that his hate for Blue is real and he's helpful and enjoyable. Which is all qualities I can respect.
+CrowMercury I truly love blue I can just taste the opponent's annoyance and it is delicious.
I think this just became my new favourite episode. Sean & Janet just sparkle together, their chemistry is fantastic and they looked like they were genuinely having so much fun filming this. Can't wait to see the gag reel!
"Did I SAY you can touch my Cards?!" lol
The way Janet gives life and character to the cards is awesome. I bet it'd be really fun to play Dungeons and Dragons with her.
MLPCloudCuckoolander her voice is majestic
god damn it. i love her so much. normaly i am no fanboy at all. but hell, korra was such a great show. and after it ended i realized that miss varney is actually a realy cool person herselfe.
I wish they would invite people from time to time that can actually play the game
+Daniel Wamser LSV played last season, he is on the hall of fame for magic
+The Mexinerd Thats exactly the kind of guests i wanna see again. I bet someone like Brian Kibbler would have a lot of fun being on the show.
+Daniel Wamser But Sean is so nice!
+Daniel Warmser Kibbler was asked to be on during season 2, but he said that his schedule made it so had to say no
+Daniel Wamser Most people that are very good at MtG are also weird losers with hygiene issues.
I'm just here for the Korra vs. Day9 fanart.
21:46-22:04 that transition from slightly hopeful to just sarcastic is just hilarious. Especially after he lays down the Longshot Squad. The way he brings out that creature followed by his explanation, you can almost taste the sarcasm as it oozes out of his voice lol.
19:46 is easily the most romantic thing I have ever heard a girl say.
Cringe.
well, that escalated quickly
Janet, you were an awesome guest! Super fun and funny as hell!
So funny to hear Korra reading out Magic cards.
omg all the memory from legend of korra come back all at once so nice to hear her again :D
"Clammy and mysterious" might just be the absolute best description of Sean Plott that I have ever heard.
Shawn, up until this point, I have failed to realize your hands are abundantly riveting!
Brian Kibler should be on the show Kappa
+LordMatsu Why the Kappa? He'd be the perfect candidate for this show... Certainly much better than the last handful of guests they've had.
xSTYG15x
The Kappa cause Sean would get crushed even harder... which he probably doesn't want.
+LordMatsu it was fun to watch him play lsv, so kibler could be good too
Bring ins Mrs Kibler as well.
Sean is actually a DAMN GOOD host. The best I've EVER seen on any youtube or TV show. Why have I not stumbled upon this series before...
Gods....
Janet's shit-talk had me insta-crushing so hard.
So funny.
I just started magic because of this show and I have to say, I would really enjoy playing with people like her. I get that this can be a strategy-heavy game and there will be people who just want to concentrate on the game on itself...but I rather just banter and add some life into my matches.
+Harvey Hale Not everyone plays just for the sole purpose of winning... I like that she actually digs the flavor text.
Fuster
Yup! and those are the kinds of people that are most fun to play with.
Harvey Hale I actually have the most fun with people who try and play the most interesting interactions. Yeah it's cool that she digs the flavor text but that would get old after a while because at the end of the day it's still a shitty card.
Awww you can hear the Korra when she gets aggressive!
I have those two clash decks myself. which is why I knew she would win. I have played like 10 duels so far with them and every time the green white one won. still loved the ep! Great guest.
Janet is the cutest and I love her. Her podcast is my fav.
You need to bring this show back
Poor Bolin... I mean Sean.
Janet Varney was SUPER AWESOME in season 1 of You're The Worst last summer. I am hoping she is back for season 2.
1:40 She made a reference, but I can't put my finger on it.
I'm totally into the JV Club lately and was so excited to see Janet on Spellslingers!
Surprised they didn't give her something with Blue to go with her Korra role.
That was awesome, but I wish Sean had done the thing where he starts looking at the rest of his deck to see when he would have drawn his next Ultimate Price or other game saving removal. I loved the time he did that and it was the very next card.
After Janet played the Colossus all I wanted was for it to get renowned...
1. I think that is the first time I've seen the cards go so well for the challenger.....entertaining game.
2. I think I love that girl, her personality seems amazing!
It would be so awesome if they did 2 out of 3.
I feel you Shaun, Abzan just hits the spot for me as well! Also your new nickname shall for ever be Longshot Shaun!
Sean's been hanging around Wil lately?
Love spell slingers. Am I the only one who would love to see more bonus episodes? Maybe deck techs and things like that?
I just can't shake the feeling that Korra is playing every other turn.
The Impish Dullahan But is she playing easy mode (Bolin) or hard mode (Asami)
the editing magic looks extra awesome in this episode!
Janet is awesome!
Great episode, really excited to see Janet in You're The Worst tonight, love that show.
This is what happens when you fight the Avatar!
Woo Janet, I love her and Cole's riffs (Jaws 3, Footloose and Dirty Dancing especially), it is awesome to see that she's giving magic a chance!
Janet has the best trash talk.
Her episode and Alison Haislip's have been my favorite so far!! Please bring them back sometime(along with Esper Roberson and Allie Brosh!! All-Stars Season?).
TCC-Professor needs to be on this show...
Great job on this one post-production team! Yeeaaah!
She's the voice of Korra?! :O
"You might as well make your board match yourself."
"My beautiful, lush forest."
Uhhh..... Okey den, Janet has a lush forest apparently...
when is the next season of spellslingers
+ThEViper StrikS We will start filming early next year ^_^
+Geek & Sundry Will you be using the zendikar block? If so i hope Sean plays against ingest eldrazi considering he hates blue control.
+Geek & Sundry Yay! I've just gotten back into Magic and love watching the series!!
+Geek & Sundry that's what I wanted to hear! :D
+Geek & Sundry so is spellslingers season 4 cancelled or something?
I think this has been the most entertaining spellslingers hands down. I am sorry to see Sean smashed so badly in it but the banter was amazing! So many laughs to be had!
Sean's misplay really screwed him didn't it?
Best guest of the show so far. This has been my favourite episode.
Okay let's have a short PSA for anyone about to post in the comment section.
Are you about to point out an incorrect interaction for the video?
STOP AND THINK
Go back to that point in the video, read the relevant rule text TWICE. If you are still sure that a mistake was made, then you may comment. Irresponsible comments cause distress to literally tens of autistic magic players every video as they are compelled to correct you.
Remember. STOP. THINK. READ.
+Captain Carthage I could click to read more, or I could just write STFU and move on with my day
Well ok Aggressive Arnold but that is a bit dense of you. I certainly wouldn't ever replay to a comment I have never read.
+Captain Carthage sean did totally tap an enchantment though
+theawesomeleprechaun JUDGE!!!!! Can I get a Judge over here!?
:P
+Captain Carthage There are dozens of us. DOZENS!
She's delightful. Still no idea how to play this game, but she was fun.
N-n-n-nineteen damage to the face
19:45 I'm gonna buy you like, a whole pie after this.
This is gold.
So is this show dead cause I really love it and would hate for it to end
haha, omg this was great. I cant wait till the bloopers come out.
Also have much faith in Korrasami
im in love... Janet is freaking amazing! that face, so much joy!
I guess this show isn't returning? Someone from the show stated that it would be returning early 2016. well seeing as 4 Magic expansions have passed with no new episodes it seems IMO this show has seen it's end.
They invited Korra to play magic with Sean... my happy is full happy right now
Did Sean forget about all the lifelink he was supposed to have? Or did I miss something?
Im about to cry, i love this so much. Im just now finding it
14:12 HAHAHA NICE PIT STAINS!!!! :D
Ooh, good episode. Nice to see decks made to be played against eachother. Also, Janet was a nice guest.
I've learned a lot about Sean over the years, but i never imagined him liking hole pies.
When is there going to be another Spellslingers? D:
