I love that we're getting cards that are just real people now with Cleopatra and Da Vinci. If Wizards digging deeper and deeper into the annuls of history maybe we'll hit the gold mine and see a showdown between Genghis Khan and Krenko, Mob Boss.
I knew it was coming and it still got me
We are already going to have Aragorn vs Iron Man, so why not?
If they do an age of empires collab the historial figures will go off
Cleo and Da Vinci aren't real people. They are from Assassin's Creed and they are owned by ubisoft.
@@82LaPlumewell they are real people... just these versions are based off of the assassin's creed counterparts
Randomly hearing Frodo having synergy with an Assassins Creed character cracked me up a little lol
Something a friend pointed out when we were talking about Alexios, is that assigning excess trample damage to the player is optional. So if you're playing Alexios, and your opponents all decide they don't want to help you rack up commander damage, they can choose not to deal that trample damage when he's chump blocked
Could u do a short showing all precons, that accidentally had infinite combos in it?
I can’t think of too many off the top of my head, what did you have in mind?
The new energy Precon has one
With lighting runner and the commander
@@NitpickingNerds i thought of the prossh one and the mh3 energy deck, are there more?
I was playing a Precon league and accidentally went infinite
I've never complained about 'never ending preview season'. This one feels insane to me that MH3 dropped like a week ago. I'm still looking for MH3 commander content and now a whole new set?
Its more that since MH3 was so hyped, no one really talked about Assassin's Creed too much.
And now bloomburrow “leaks” too! Thanks WOTC for not letting us enjoy the moment.
Ill play Cleopatra 1,000,000 times before i cheese the table with Jodah
Nice call on the reality chip for the agents! Pretty nifty being able to peek at the top before activating the agent's self mill
Amazing vid !
The best part of universes beyond is seeing all the mtg channels say how they never played or watched whatever the theme is 😂 Just joking but it’s amusing. I’d think a few would be into wider gamer culture like how Pleasant Kenobi plays Warhammer.
The thing I found cool is the way this set actually enables older assassins matter commanders.
Used to just be a mashup of whatever assassins and changelings you could find but now it seems all of them have a bunch of New synergistic assassins for their 99
Damn, that Moxfield ad caught me off guard 😂 good move
I'm unsure whether or not to put Cleopatra in my skullbriar deck. Skully is usually my only legendary creature. However, there are a couple of ways to sac skully to draw cards.
I like the 'you wont be able to guess where because youre a liar'. They sometimes say. Its like a short-hand version of what they normally say. Kinda cuts out the middle-man so-to-speak. Catches me off guard sometimes and gives me a good laugh.
Do those populate effects really work for Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad? The tokens exile at the end of combat, so unless you've got the Master, Multiplied in play, they're gone before you can do anything at sorcery speed. That just leaves interaction between instants and Song of the Worldsoul. Feels like too janky a combo to really plan for.
There are some sick effects you didn't mention, though:
- Desmond Miles is the other Assasin (along with Roshan) with sky-high synergy in this deck, giving you tons of surveil to get the right cards in your graveyard.
- On assassins, ETB removal is really great. The new Ruthless Lawbringer from OTJ can just sacrifice one of the other tokens to give you removal that hits any nonland permanent. Pretty great.
- Setting aside all the awesome assassin options, Irregular Cohort is a changeling that's a banger for free token generation every combat once you get him exiled with a memory counter.
- Ashes of the Fallen is another Maskwood Nexus/Roshan/Conspiracy, only it's the best one because it's just a 2 mana artifact and easy to get out early. Once you do that, there are a ton of disgusting options. Two notable ones are Port Razer (basically an infinite combat machine once he's exiled with a memory counter) and the new Ulamog the Defiler (since it stays in exile, the Ulamog token always comes in with 10 +1/+1 counters and does Annihilator 10 to some poor opponent).
I've been brewing and refining this one since it was announced, and I can't wait to give it a go.
Unfortunately with Ulamog you would not get the annihilator as it is an attack trigger and the copy enters tapped and attacking
@@henrytorr5810 oh good call. I already dropped Godo from the deck for that reason. I guess I'll include Ragavan...
The new Gitrog mount in the 99 of Cleopatra can be really strong!
I ordered my MH3 singles on release day and some of them aren't expected to arrive until AFTER AC comes out. This release schedule is insane, slooooooooow down!
That said, fortunately there is only like 9 cards I want from the set. Kassandra, Spear of Leo, Bereau Headmaster, Brotherhood Regalia, Crystal Skull, Shay Cormac, Haythem Kenway and reprints Reconnaissance and Black Market Connections.
The two best commanders in my opinion are -
Leonardo da Vinci for casual commander. He offers the ability to create Thopters with amazingly splashy effects like a Thopter with Portal to Phyrexia's effect. The deck needs a Training Grounds for sure & an Encroaching Mycosynth would be fun and allow you to clone your enchantments.
Shao Jun for Cedh. She is a three drop creature that allows you to win two ways in an Izzet deck. You can do a Dramatic Reversal combo with two extra artifacts and burn the table out or you can set up a Dockside Extortionist + Cloudstone Curio combo and do the same. Her ability to stay in the command zone until you get the rest of the line in play, then cast her and win.. no haste needed, is really useful.
Mycosynth with DaVinci is one if my favorite synergies, my favorite combo with it is using discarding Karn, the Great Creator then using his -2 to take the original Karn out of exile and into your back to your hand
It would also be funny for the Triad to have that desert that you can pay 3 to become a 10/10 since triad is a 10 cost, i might be misremembering but I'm pretty sure it fits the colorless identity
As the resident Slicer player in my group I'm super excited about Alexios. I'll definitely grab a copy of him and have him ready to go as an alternate commander in that deck. I still think Slicer is considerably stronger, but Alexios looks awesome and I can't wait to try him out.
Both are cool, I like that this isn't just the exact same card and there's some differences
@@NitpickingNerds yeah totally! And I really don't think I need to change my Slicer deck at all to have him be effective in it. I'm sure if I made him the main commander I'd make some changes, but he'll function great with the deck exactly as it is, and that's really cool
@@NitpickingNerds It is worth noting that the Trample isn't as meaningful as it seems at first glance. People can still collude to chump block in many cases. The controller of Alexios (your opponent most of the time) can choose how to assign the excess trample damage when something blocks it. So if two players really wanted to, they could chump Alexios with a 1/1 and ask the controller to assign all of the excess damage to the 1/1 still. And since this commander is Slicer-lite, people will definitely collude to do so (just like they often do with Slicer to divide up the commander damage).
As much I would like to put double down in my Ezio deck that I'm building. I realized a lot of the assassin are legendary so I think it's best to make the deck sort of a historical sub theme
Can you include The secret lair commanders from assassin Creed also?
da vinki?
Leonardo is definitely going into the 99 of my Optimus Prime thopter typal
finally i can make an only assassins deck
Can someone tell me how Beezy's Karador current list even wins? It's like all the oldschool combos have been ripped out and I see all the new cards but I don't even see any combos it's like the plan is to beat down with staxx creatures or something I don't know?
Rishkar is Not advised while playing on MTG arena. You will go to respond to an interruption and the auto tapper will tap your attacker who was about to swing for game even though you have untapped artifacts which could have provided you the mana causing you to lose the game.
This is unlike Relic of Legends or Springleaf Drum which will always prompt you before tapping a creature for mana.
39:40 "No, not gods. We simply came.....before." -Minerva
Alexios is slicer with a normal creature type and artwork, so better slicer.
Beezy saying he didnt know there were Gods in AssCreed. 😅. Its always funny when people figure out how unhinged that series is.
They cooking with the AC set
I would love to go against an Alexios Deck if I use my Eriette of the Charmed Apple deck lmao. I would just buff up the Alexios and he would just kill the other players for me.
Would marchesca be good for enzio with them death touch assassian?
Ramses, Assassin Lord is gonna pop off once this releases
He's got some new toys for sure
I kinda want to build an alexios deck but instead of really caring about it just not doing anything with it and forcing my opponents to deal with this big threat while I spend all my time doing other agree stuff
Woot!
Assassin’s Creed Hype!
Where’s Edward
Edward not being here is criminal
This
You missed Commander's Plate !!
I love the hypocrisy of printed unlimited knights Templar while banning Crusade!
Here in under a minute
Early club
Are we getting a commander list for MH3!
alexios seems very fun if your pod is chill
He will definitely encourage some table talk
There is a number 5 in your assassin's sign...lol
24:32
Trample isn’t very good for Alexios - the attacking player can decide to assign all the damage to the blocking creature and not have any trample over.
It’s terrible, and menace would be stronger unless you are playing with players that don’t know the rules
Wotc making real people magic cards brings the potential for an Al Capone Card to light as well.... Hmmm.....
this set looks so dull
