Theres some sort of reverse psychology happening because the fact that they are okay with him making fun of them makes me want to buy raycons! Or raybands or whatever
Daniel Amade oh, definitely - Izzet storm is funny, but blue usually serves as the enabler for combos, instead of the key piece, (unless it’s some extra turn or stasis shenanigan, which plays into the “f your board state” thing). It’s why I almost never play mono-blue-too bland.
Funny way to spell Jund or... just anything with Green. Combos don't really care about boardstate regardless about what color they are coming from unless the boardstate involves stom stax elements. Rule of Law will shut down most combo decks bar none. Except maybe Yissan.
L C with blue, it’s more about turning disadvantage on its head. When you combo off in all of these other colors, you probably already had the in-game time and space to do so. Blue (especially Sultai and Temur) just assembles some nonsense in an upkeep, untaps, casts Expropriate, and everyone dies. That’s not to say other colors can’t do that-Blue just excels at creating space for itself very quickly, and very often; that’s how it enables these combos in the first place.The reason I mention the other guy’s board state is it implies that he/she is being perceived as the biggest threat, and Blue is just like, “nice value engine you’ve got there. It would be a shame if I won in the space of one draw step.”
According to my number crunching, git prob, ponder, preordain and brainstorm are all must run, after that, force of will, mana drain, chain of vapor, dispel and swan song and cyclonic are the best interactions available, followed by delay, counterspell, winds of rebuke/into the roil and reality shift. Rhystic and remora are game winning and obviously gilded drake is insane, other good cards with very high ceilings are copy artifact, steal enchantment and spellseeker. Blue, the color of fun :3
Aw yes, the "that guy" colour, that made me play stuff like Grand Abolisher, DL Dromoka, Dosan and the like in every single deck. PD: How is Narset hard to interact with? Do you not play any creatures to attack her directly? Has it become trendy to be a Combat Step Hipster?
Combat is a generally underused aspect of Commander outside of very specific decks or infinite token strategies, which leaves Planeswalkers as one the permanent types with the fewest avenues of removal.
@@ForeverLaxx That's weird, because not that long ago Planeswalkers were considered powered down in EDH because of how hard it was to keep them alive for 1 or 2 rounds around the table. I suppose Planeswalkers get better the closer a table gets to being a cEDH meta.
@@ForeverLaxx Chipping down people might be irrelevant in the usual win out of nowhere Combomander gameplay, but my hatebears will not hesitate to swing at any hostile Planeswalker in the field, specially while under Shalai coverage. Thalia, Aven Mindcensor, Hushbringer all do a good enough job.
I once ran a Gwafa Hazid list (#GwaffleHaus) that ran a Mystical Tutor. I had it altered to depict the rapper Mystikal and every time I cast it, I'd say "DANGER!" to the delight of no one but myself.
Just want to preface this by saying I enjoyed the video. Narset doesn't stop Dig Through Time, though I enjoyed the line "bury your opponenets attempts to dig through time." Dig puts the cards into their hand, it doesn't draw them. Edit: spelling
In all my years of viewing the legend of prof from Tolarian Community College, he never seems to dip in quality or in humor. Good job, excellent channel.

I followed you link, but still had to pay the $79.99 price. This of course is no fault of your own: but would you let Raycon know about? I'm pretty annoyed by it honestly. Great video! Commander and blue go together very nicely. My Izzet deck is actually the scourge of the group because of how much my blue cards keep players from playing the game.
March 2021 Oh gildred drake only $100?? That's not so bad lemme order one on tcgplayer right now. *Goes on tcgplayer. $370 for a lightly played Gilded Drake!???? 🤬🤬
Why does everyone leave colorless outside these lists? :( I play mono-colorless decks and it is frustrating how much less content I get from these reviews :)
Because that top 8 would just be mana rocks^^. If you want a top 8, have three: 1. Mana Crypt 2. Sol Ring 3. Mana Vault If you're running a colorless deck: 4. Metalworker 5. Grim Monolith 6. Mystic Forge 7. All is Dust 8. Basalt Monolith If you're running a colored deck: 4. Mox Diamond 5. Arcane Signet 6. Chrome Mox 7. Other Signets 8. The Talisman Cycle If you're a filthy casual: 4.

Emrakul, the Promised End Honorable mentions: Nevinyrral's Disk, Expedition Map, Sword of Feast and Famine, Vedalken Orrery (I see way too many people praising this card for no fucking reason, that's why it's here. If you can't exploit it, don't play it.)
Well done sir. The only card anyone could reasonably debate would be propaganda. It's tough though when considering only top 8. Thanks for the video though, I forgot all about thassa somehow, nice reminder.
Good video, but you may have made a mistake looking at prices. Only the promo versions of Azcanta are $20. The normal one is $5. The "cheaper alternative", Thassa, actually costs more. :)
Mono blue decks in a nutshell: I'm blue, da ba dee da ba daa Da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa Da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa, da ba dee da ba daa
Yes the reason the card is $100 is because it's on the reserve list. There are no cards that are not on the reserve list over $100. People blame the reserve list for much larger issues with reprints in general. If the reserve list was gone tomorrow underground seas are still gonna cost hundreds of dollars. Furthermore, there's nothing stopping wizards from just printing an underground sea variant that deals one damage to you when it ETBs. They have done this with other reserve list cards like fork // reverberate.
Narset's -2 has won me games. Using that when I have Approach of the Second Sun in my deck gets the job done. I am surprised Expropriate or Omniscience didn't make the list, but I also don't disagree with the list at all. I run 6/8 in my Elsha of the Infinite deck.

Gitaxian Probe. Straight up reduces your deck to 98 cards, adds stormcount, adds graveyard fodder, checks for counterspells, costs basically nothing. Best blue cantrip hands down, though all of these are also fantastic. Fierce Guardianship will be another contender once C20 is released.
@@TolarianCommunityCollege But it' sooo good and on a budget. The only deck type that comes to my mind not running it is a non-instant-speed focused deck but in blue i love interaction in my opponent's turns.
Thanks for going for generic blue cards that's much more helpful than some guy rambling on about some op card that is only op when you have cards that want to be in the graveyard so helpful
I keep trying to tell my group to "pay the 1" but most of them are only interested in dumping their hands as fast as possible and would rather play 3 spells (giving the guy 3 cards) than play 2 spells (and give the guy 0 cards). It's a pain.
I have a pet blue card I'd like to show the class! It's called Submerge. Submerge is an Instant that costs 4U and reads: "If an opponent controls a Forest and you control an Island, you may cast this spell without paying its mana cost. Put target creature on top of its owner's library." If you're playing this spell you're in blue and definitely control an Island. And how many games with 4-5 players have you played in where no one is playing green? Very few, I'm willing to bet. Notice the lands don't even have to be basic! Shocks, duals, tangos, bicycle, and tricycle lands all count. And the owner of the creature you're targeting doesn't even have to be the player who controls a Forest! In my honest opinion I think this card is either extremely overlooked or not many people know about it. It's definitely a hidden gem.
I'm always surprised to see how nobody mentions forbid when it comes to counterspells. With all the lands and ramp you get in commander decks, the buyback cost is easy to pay, and you'll end up getting four+ counters with just one card. Not to mention it has great synergy with any deck using a discard tech.
"Slam that down your pipe and smoke it"
I'm dying over here

To be fair I took his advice. :) Thank you Professor!

“Slam that down your pipe and smoke it” - Prof 2020
Narset doesn't stop a dig through time, dig is putting cards into hand, not drawing them.
I think he meant treasure cruise, he was talking about them at the same time.
I would literally watch a compilation of all profs adds. They are hilarious.
look for Mista GG, his ads (and vids obviously) and amazing too, those are the only ones I don't skip ajjaja
I built a Roon of the Hidden Realms deck like 4 years ago and thought Gilded Drake at like $10-15 was waaay too much. 🙃
Bro... when the professor said "fam"...
I felt that.

Me: "I hate blue"
Also Me:"Plays a mono blue commander deck"

@@NathanJackLouttit Precisely my current situation.
I only play Emry for the artifacts...
I built Jhoira, Weatherlight Captain just to remind my play group why I dont play blue.

The most entertaining promotion I've ever seen! Whatsup Fam?!?
"If you have a large disposable income...or an inkjet printer" best line in the review
That ad will almost certainly connect with the youth.

"that let's you do what I just said the card does"
I'm almost crying lol
"I'm not spending a 100$ on a single card"

I spent more than that on a single card before but it was worth to have a actual unlimited timetwister and not a collectors edition for my Nesukar EDH

My family is so disappointed tho...
Scalding tarn is only like 70$ now.

@@flaccidreflex5563 yes

the lack of Expropriate is disappointing, I bet the Professor is the kind of person that votes Time :p
Now that series is over time to mash all of the lists together into 1 deck and see if i win
Narset, Parter of Veils does not stop Dig Through Time as Dig "adds" cards to the hand rather than "draw".

Gonna be honest, whatever color combo I play, it always ends up (essentially) mono blue.
Stupid question. Did they ever print Narset in English with that art? Or is that some fancy techno-wizardry editing?
I’m pretty sure dig and cruise are legal in pioneer still. Also, Narset doesn’t stop your opponent’s dig through time.
