😂😂 The poses they do each week always crack me up in the intros. This time Ben just edited to stretch off the screen. Top comedy from this crew 😆
BIG Ben
They copy the poses of their commanders
Cgb being dominant dominus makes sense - that's why he likes to have a lot of subs
Haven't watched further than 5:40 yet, but... if you double the damage of Heartless Hidetsugu's ability, doesn't it only kill players with an even life total? Since it rounds down, it will leave someone with an odd life total on 1 health, no? Example: you're at 21 health, Hidetsugu deals 10, doubled to 20... which leaves you at 1.
fetches in mono blue are great for mystic sanctuary: in response to a spell with a remora/rhystic trigger on the stack you can fetch for sanctuary and put a counter spell back on top then draw it and counter the spell, feels amazing
what a time to be alive ... waited 3 hours for this
Cmooon, that force of vigor HAD to kill Divine Visitation, how did Ben miss that?
8 dmg for each creature that dies on blakes board was very worrying. Althought, he should had got rid of divine since he could have enough dmg to kill blake and cgb. But then again, cgb would have gone all in on ben if he destroyed his both toys. It was hard choice.
Disagreed. Not knowing about Adelaine in hand (or what will it do, but this is besides the point), cutting CGB from half the mana and cutting both incidental damage and lifegain from Blake was not incorrect.
If Ben targetted CGB with both, CGB already had enough to kill him. The goal was for CGB to kill Blake (cause CGB had to this turn) and hope that CGB has only enough to kill Blake and deploy defenses (over which Ben would trample through). If CGB kills Blake and it gets to Ben turn, Ben wins
The end result was different, but that doesn't mean play was incorrect. It's more likely that mana and +1/+1 from Caged Sun will be relevant that turn than the tokens being bigger (knowing about Nissa in Bens hand)
LOL Ben has the absolute BEST opening Graphic pictures.. Just Hilarious! And each one is either better or funnier then the last.. Go Ben! Also was this the fastest WPCS? Daymn.. insane.. Congrats CGB. Also kind of disappointed to not see what the Blue Dominus could have done with it's Double Proliferate triggers. :D
Caught the preview of the deck when CGB had Amazonian review it, and it did not disappoint. I only regret how quickly this game ended. Brutal end, gg's!
YES! Am loving these last themed games!
Bauble is definitely wholesome.
That was definitely an explosive ending
I could be wrong here - but the 4/4 Angels are created by a replacement effect from divine visitation and NOT by the attack trigger ability of Adeline - therefore they should not be entering tapped an attacking. Prove me wrong?
614.1a Effects that use the word “instead” are replacement effects. Most replacement effects use the word “instead” to indicate what events will be replaced with other events.
So the continuous effect from Divine Visitation effectively changes Adeline's triggered ability to read "Whenever you attack, for each opponent, create a 4/4 white Angel creature token with flying and vigilance that’s tapped and attacking that player or a planeswalker they control."
Yes thats true, BUT the double tokens attacking was an error. They are double indeed but only the normal batch will enter tapped and attacking.
Yeah I use fetches in mono white for targets with Brought Back, Sevinne’s Reclamation and Sun Titan.
That opening tripped me up. Did a double take on what video I'd actually clicked on 😂
So at the end, when the 2 angels per person enter, isn't the one entering as a double just entering without the "tapped and attacking" clause?
I think you’re right
It is a replacement effect, so the angel will come in tapped attacking, that is not wrong
Ben not removing divine visitation was pretty troll tbh
Would the Mondrak-doubled Angel tokens come in tapped and attacking though? Obviously the copied tokens have flying and vigilance but I’m not so sure that the “tapped and attacking” property would be copied.
No you are right, they were supposed to enter the field not attacking.
@@jerryloiselle8507 It's a replacement effect same as Divine visitation. Adeline says "for each opponent create 1(one) 1/1 token that is tapped and attacking". Divine visitation replaces 1/1 with 4/4 angels with flying and vigilance and Mondrak replaces 1 token with 2*1 tokens. In the end Adeline's trigger looks like this: "For each opponent create 2(two) 4/4 angels with flying and vigilance that are tapped and attacking". Cheers!
My Solphim deck got completely reduced to ashes because an "all sacrifice permanents" partner black green deck in a two head game, I suffered more than my opponents of collateral damage
CGB coming in hot with the win-more strategy. Love it.
The feeling when you wanted to see the blue one rip 😭
Wow! That was a quick one. Such a game 😂
One day, Blake saw a poor, emaciated child sitting on the curb. The boy asked him for some food, so Blake spit in his face and punched him in the mouth. “Play fetchlands in your mono-colored decks and maybe you could eat, nerd,” Blake said.
That boy grew up to be Richard Garfield.
I'm fine with fetches in monocolor, it thins things and increases the likelihood of drawing nonland cards, although it's arguably negligible in a 100 card deck. But, every fetch gives a 1% increase in the likelihood your next draw is a nonland card, so it's not nothing.
I agree with Blake, Ben needs to get his basic land situation figured out. Also, fetches in every deck, all the time XD
The guy in the grey shirt looks like if Adam Devine and Ike Barinholtz had a child
For fetches, it’s more that it’s a good way to get the Eldraine lands that have some side effect. That’s the reason where i’d see 1 or 2 in it, for example for the blue land
THANKSNOSPOILERS There was no doubt in my mind that the Dominant Dominus that won, would win, and it did NOSPOILERSTHANKS
Well CGB, when will we have the multiverse episode where you do a five player commander game against yourself with CGW, CGB (black), CGR, and CGG? I guess you could have the crew and your wife cosplay as you if you don't want an episode of goldfishing haha
If you have bolosis citadel you want to Crack a fetch to shuffle the top
"All the White's over here!"
Goreclaw aka cocaine bear ftw!
Yeah, I run fetches. Mono utility nonbasics I want to fetch, but mostly for the slight thinning effect. I'd usually rather have it than not, though if I REALLY want to draw a ton of lands, maybe I leave them out. The 1 life is such a tiny cost it's more than worth it.
“It does have trample, btw”
I would expect nothing less from coke-bear
Kinda of a rock and a hard place there for ben/shea. I think this pod deserves a rematch at some point.
You use fetchlands in mono black aristocrats for trimming, I use fetchlands in mono black aristocrats for lifeloss synergy. We are not the same
LOL this comment is gold
@@BlakeMTG No YOU are gold Blake. Never let anyone tell you any different. (And always believe in your soul)
Player removal is the best removal
Last weekend, I gave everyone 1000 bananas and decked out.
It was a 5 player commander game.
The last 2 players claimed the world.
Unless I use graveyard synergy, landfall, or brainstorm effects, I don't run fetchlands in monocolored deck. At this point there are math papers explaining why deck thinning has so little relevance that it isn't even worth the life point loss (and we know of how little worth 1 life is).
I personally don’t run off color fetches outside of dedicated lands decks. That’s probably because I have too many decks and find fetching tedious
CGB in Jim Carrey voice “tell me who is the dominant dominus” 😂
Blake brining the MAXIMUM sweat with the mono colored deck fetchlands.
Prepare for trouble, and make it double!
I dont use fetchlands in my mono color decks......I play snow-covered basics and a extraplanar lens, caged sun, fist of gaunlet......the normal basic fetches(evolving wilds, fabled passage, terramorphic expanse, myraid landscape)
Overall, CGB did a cool 120 damage on the final swing and gained 120 life. Gotta love token decks... Not as evil as Jetmir but Mondrak is one of the best mono white commanders of the past couple years. I would say it's right next to Adeline in play ability.
Hey CGB… replacement effects don’t stack with other replacement effects. So making a bunch of Mondrak’s with HOTH doesn’t make it where you get to double things a bunch of times.
Sorry, but that's just wrong. The game checks after each replacement effect applies to determine the set of choices for the next iteration until there are no more replacement effects to apply.
Fetch lands in mono make sense in landfall decks
I actually started not playing fetch lands.... I have gotten sick of constant shuffling my deck. In fact all my ramp decks dont get played because of that reason.
15 5/5 creatures with double strike and lifelink, 150 lifegain. Jeebus.
Caged Sun was already gone though, so they were 4/4's. 15 * 8 = 120 life.
Fetch lands in mono color decks are amazing especially if you play delve cards
Isn't Crypt Ghast technically not allowed in a mono black deck, since it has the B/W hybrid pip?
It is allowed. The hybrid mana symbol is inside the reminder text brackets which can be functionally ignored for the purpose of colour identity.
Bauble in mono white is wholesome
So, because I haven't seen any math done yet...
8 vigilant 4/4 angels
1 4/4 Mondrak
6 tapped 4/4 angels made from Adeline
15 × 4 = 60
With double strike 120 damage
And after the 4 from Shea's mana barbs
CGB ended with 132 life.
Supposed to make only 3 angels tapped and attacking from adeline and 3 non attacking
Oh man, no one identifying the caged sun plus divine visitation as a big problem really expedited this ep lol
This definitely was awesome to see, especially after the whooping from mondrak at Phillycon
Oh whoa this is a quick one! See you next week!
Fetches in monoblue are good because of brainstorm and similar effects
OMG that ben intro pose BIG BEN
Just in case anyone wanted to know, plural of dominus is domini
Wouldn't the adeline make 3 tapped and attacking and than make 3 that would come in untapped. You're not copying the attack trigger your just making extra tokens. Correct me if I'm wrong
The tokens are copied with whatever conditions the originals are, so all are attacking.
Geez, that got out of hand quickly! Congratz on an impressive win. Divine visitation is a fun card
Why are people obsessed with matching lands? I love the MTG lands, so I always make an effort to put as many different gorgeous lands in my decks :O (and thematically don’t these represent the different lands that you draw your mana from?)
So fun to watch cub is a beast at magic but I like seeing the strategies of his friends
i use fetch lands in my Cosima, God of the Voyage commander deck
Is cryptgast playable even tho it has the option of a white pip in its exort ability? Its not in full mono black colors
Nvm had to look it up
There will never be a time I don't call Rankle the Master of Prankle.
Me starting the video, this is short
me ending the video that was fast
side note
i encourage everyone to listen to the outro at 2X speed
What is the life total app being used here?
how does he go from doing 4 damage when stuff dies to 8 in the same turn, everyone questions it and the they continue but im pretty sure its supposed to only be 4 lol
I like fetches in mono colored decks that run landfall cards.
I don't believe fetches are needed in casual, even in 3+ color decks, unless you're doing landfall. There are now enough good lands that you can build a really good mana base without fetching.
having the ability to fetch a triome is busted you most def need them
@@JuniorOrtiz738 Nah, if you built your mana base correctly, getting a triome isn't needed. I have built everywhere from mono-5C mana bases without fetch lands and don't get color screwed.
I've got a bunch of decks , among them are like 4 dif 5color decks and I don't run any of the fetch lands (I do throw in from time to time typical evolving wilds type lands), cause casual games and they really aren't needed if you're playing casual.
I very rarely if ever have Mana issues, hell for the fun of it I got the Jared Cartholion pre con and I'm using it's Mana base from the pre con and put in all 10 lieges and running it as a colors matter type deck for casual play and only once was I locked off casting a liege out of idk a dozen or so playthroughs.
Fetches are great but agreed they for sure are not needed , anyone who thinks they need fetches are probably lackluster at deck building and figuring out their Mana curve/pips and such tbh.
Blake Would be very mad with my lands none of them match
Next up, there’s Wayfarers Bauble…..
I deck thin with a huge land search green spell and doesn’t have x in it
Blake does spit in the face of poor people
I literally do 1 land of each art. It's commander. All your cards should be different! :D
Why would you not destroy the divine visitation with that force of vigor????? Way to hand mondrak the win. Bad decision.
Because the cage sun pumps the angels enough to kill him and the bastion literally just shown how much of a threat it was.
Where are the salutations?
Popping off!
shortest commander game ever! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I like the sound quality but the microphones look really silly
Def should have hit divine Visitation with force of Vigor. That won him the game, or actually just handed him the game. Oof
Without knowing Adeline was in hand it was the correct play, she’s won me several games from out of nowhere doubling her tokens she puts out and turning them into 4/4 flyers was gross
No Tekhuthal??? no need to fight for the real dominant blue dominus!
I've never seen so many commercials.
Definitely opposed to a blueless episode. Make Shae play some more blue if the rest of you aren't!
The blue dominus is pretty shit as a commander. Mono blue proliferate isn't really a thing. You could probably make it work, but the white dominus is definitely the best one.
But first, of course there is Wholesome Bauble
Careful, they're putting fetty in the cocaine 💀 stay safe in the streets everyone.
Crypt Ghast in a mono Black deck?
Yep, doubles the swamps to be able to tap for two mana. With regards to the Extort, even though it says "Tap W/B to extort" since the w/b symbol is in the REMINDER text (parentheses) it can be in a mono black or mono white deck just fine. (Of course, Crypt Ghast has a black pip in his CMC so he can only be in a deck containing black) :)
Can't wait
30 minutes is a little short whish y'all did another game with same commanders
Absolutely play fetches in mono colored decks
big ups
I have a hard crush on Shea 💀💙
I liked it, but then quickly redacted. Only to keep the like number at a proper total.
Mondrak a expensive card now 🐖🐕🐓
Tekuthal slander 😔
Nooooooo!! Im super late
Algo, hello!
Fetches in monocolor decks all day
and that's why people play blue ^__^
Thinning the deck (if that's the only purpose of what you're doing) is mathematically not a thing for 99-card decks. If you can use the graveyard or want to shuffle or something, sure, but you have not actually altered any statistics of your deck in any meaningful way. So please, mono-color decks, don't use fetch lands if they have no purpose other than "thinning the deck." You can do the math and see how virtually nonexistent the stats change.
Focus on the gameplay not your face
No blue commander im out. The fact CGB did that to make people stay made me click off the video.
