    One additional thing I will add on the Commander Format Panel that changes things from the old way and protects members: the people on the panel are being paid by WotC. So any harassment directed at those people is now harassment against people under the employ/contract/whatever the deal is of Wizards.
    That legally changes things quite a bit.

    If you're curious, at 5:56 Cam is referencing "Spider Man's Tangled Web", Issue #5 titled "Flowers for Rhino" (2001). It's pretty wild. Rhino gets a brain operation that makes him super smart and he rewrites Hamlet.

    8:34 Cam is referring to the Pronghorn, which is not actually a Gazelle but does fill the same ecological niche (extremely fast grazing animal that runs away from cheetahs, yes there used to be an American Cheetah). They’re both ruminants, but Pronghorns are on the Giraffe/Okapi side of the group, while Gazelles are on the Cattle/Sheep/Deer/Goat side

    So I was playing the mono-red leyline deck in standard before it got banned, and I had a lot of fun flinging Cacophony Scamps at people using the Burn Together half of Callous Sell-Sword. A great little detail about that interaction is that unlike Fling, Burn Together doesn't require you to sacrifice the creature as a cost to cast it, so it triggers all your prowess-type effects before it actually resolves, boosting your damage. I called the deck Fling feat. Nivix Cyclops.

      Pringles would have been an incredible name. I liked when it was called Lunchbox because players used to carry their Gauntlet in old 80s/90s lunchboxes. Apparently trying to bring the coolest lunchbox was a thing in the meta 😂

    So happy with the direction of magic, I started with it nearly from the beginning and I have been part of such beautiful communities and seeing such a diverse and incredible new community of local players join is amazing. Before my cancer forced me to leave Seattle I had taught the game at the local cafe to over a 100+ new players. So many of which still play. Always love and laughter in your lives and please take care my friends :)

  • @MikiaoD

    From my recollection; the Pauper Rules Panel was put in place in response to the community push back on Chatterstorm. Chatterstorm was printed in MH2 in June 2021 and a LOT of Pauper players assumed it was going to be banned on release as pretty much all of the Storm wincons are. And it wasn't. And then a Ban announcement happened and it still wasn't banned. I remember reading about an MTGO event that normally drew dozens of players that only had like 9; most of whom were playing 60 basic lands in protest of the format getting so warped by this storm card. Chatterstorm was finally banned in September 2021.
    In his article about the Pauper Panel, Gavin did state that the reason Chatterstorm (and some of the cheaper Initiative cards) took so long to ban was because it takes "a lot of discussion, format knowledge, and analysis" to ban a card, something that Wizards did not have for the Pauper format. This panel was WotC's attempt to correct that and to give some official eyes on the format as a whole.

    It's so ironic that Time Spiral-Alara was a low point, because that was my first peak time getting into and playing a bunch of Magic. It was pretty crazy how many of the cards I had from that era were super expensive when I came back to the game around 2017.

      I mean... it's not like they couldn't have predicted this was likely to occur. You record an episode before a big event and then release it after said event is over...it's just not going to feel as relevant. In fact, I'd say the release cadence of TTC in general just opens them up to this kind of thing happening somewhat regularly, because there's too much of a gap between when they record and release episodes.

      @inajar7947 หลายเดือนก่อน

      ​@@jacobkristos1214 I don't think it's about being terminally online, or being cryptic. It's just that there's so much news that got dropped in one day, after this episode was recorded, that it's not the kind of thing someone would dive into In depth in a casual comment. It's also affecting all of magic, so it's reasonable to assume that anyone who plays would know about it relatively quickly.
      To give you a quick rundown:
      - All pack UB products from 2025 forward will be Standard (and therefor everything else) legal. This does not include UB secret lair or ub Commander decks, which will retain their original legality of "Eternal only."
      - WotC is bringing back MSRP. While the MSRP is marginally higher than it was when they discontinued it 6 years ago, by and large, the MSRP is lower than what many places charged for product without it.
      - The overall number of set releases per year is being slowed down.
      - The details of the wotc Commander panel has been announced and is overall pretty optimistic.
      - Lorwyn pushed back to 2025
      - first image from the new space set next year, featuring spaceships and Tezzeret
      - a handful of cards from the death race set, along with its name, were shown
      - A few more details about return to Tarkir were shown

    I get that with a draft its better funneled like this to make sure there are people playing it. But man i love playing Momir so much on arena when they let us. I donno if i am alone in this but i would actually, give WOTC a fair amount of money(maybe like 5 bucks? 10 bucks?) for the ability to just play momir on arena.

    Turn 3 or 4 Storm? What's the highest, magical christmas land you could possibly storm off for on turn 4 or 5 after you swing in? Like realistically. An early cast of her does not sound as backbreaking as it looks, oh no grapeshot for 5, maybe?

    • @tzarl
      @tzarl หลายเดือนก่อน

      It's not too difficult in those colors to storm for cEDH, you have some compact win cons that don't require a lot of storming to make a strong play into an instant win, and in casual decks there is a lot of ability for cheap/free rituals/card draw to potentially do some powerful spellslinging the turn after you cast her. I can envision lists that turbos out wins somewhat consistently on turn 4 and uses her as a finisher both inside and out of cedh, though I imagine it will be a feast or famine kind of commander that ends up being a "you got removal? if not, I win" card.

  • @pneuma08
    @pneuma08 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Yeah so playing against Leyline in BO1 is miserable because you essentially need to have one-mana instant speed removal spells (two-mana might be okay if you win the coin flip) or you have a 20% chance of dying on turn 2, and even if you do there's Turn Inside Out or Felonious Rage which will can generate multiple 2/2s in its wake - plus killing their Heartfire Heroes or Cacophony Scamps may still result in a large amount of damage your way. Blockers are often not enough because both Monstrous Rage and Might of the Meek give trample reliably.
    The deck is incredibly consistent because of the multiple pieces of redundancy (outside of Leyline which the deck doesn't really need, it just kicks it into overdrive) and runs off of so little mana that cutting mana slots which would be nonsense in paper will still result in a playable hand a lot of the time, partially due to the hand-smoothing algorithms.
    The game devolves into frantically trying to survive to turn 3 or 4, assuming the opponent missed the 20% of the time they can just kill you on turn 2.

    Alchemy diverged a bit more from standard when they increase the time before rotation; it stayed at 2 years when standard moved to three.
    This also saw a precipitous drop in the Alchemy participation rates, because now that almost every Standard deck was illegal in Alchemy, its numbers were no longer being artificially inflated by Arena constantly defaulting to Alchemy, because you could no longer accidentally queue for the wrong format.
