Graham hecked up, he didn't read the 2R creature with an absolute wall of text. Whenever a player casts a spell you may pay 1, if you do search your library for an artifact and put it into play. His "Eldrazi" notably being an artifact!

I like "Remover of Obstacles". 17:55 That's a very apt name for a creature that can stop all creatures from blocking! And looks like it could combo well with all of the creatures from this 'set' with strong abilities that trigger upon dealing combat damage to a player!
I think they undervalued the red instant "you may search your library." It doesn't make you shuffle so you can just see what cards you're going to draw.
i keep seeing that phrase thrown around, "new world order". what does it refer to in MTG? I'm still kinda new to the game, so i am not familiar with a lot of terms
@@ChronoBolt It's a term Mark Rosewater (longtime lead designer for Magic) created to describe how they handle complexity of cards at the various rarities starting several years ago. Here's the full article if you're interested - magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/making-magic/new-world-order-2011-12-02 A cliff notes version: With games that continuously add new components, like Magic, there's the temptation to make your new stuff more complicated to make it more interesting to your enfranchised players. Eventually, though, your cards become incomprehensible to a brand new player, and if no new players want to get involved because it's too hard to learn how to play, the game dies. So they introduced "New World Order", where they want to keep all the really complex stuff at rare and mythic rare, while the commons are easier to understand. That way, when a new player opens a booster, they can basically understand what's going on with the majority of cards in the booster, and hopefully only see up to one really complicated rare that makes them wonder what to do with it. The impetus for this was the Time Spiral block, where they made absurdly complicated cards at all rarities that referenced Magic's past and possible futures. Enfranchised players loved the set, but sales were bad because newer or more casual players had no clue what was going on.
@@HessianHunter This sounds like it makes it so that the only interesting cards happen to be the ones that are on average more expensive and harder to get. This is kind of upsetting. The game is already expensive enough to play most formats with a deck that's actually fun and interesting.
@@Ivy_Panda Fair concern - It's possible for commons and uncommons to be either too complex or not complex enough, and both are bad. But look at the commons from Time Spiral - they're pretty clearly over the line for expecting a new player to understand what's happening. On the other hand, Ixalan was way too simple in a lot of people's opinion, mine included. Since Dominaria I think they've hit a good balance, personally. The Ravnica sets were full of interesting build-around uncommons, some of which have been relevant to Standard, like Cavalcade of Calamity and Dovin's Acuity.
"Oh yeah, did you hear about this new trap card" "no, what does it do?" "for 2 black and 3 generic you get to choose a creature on the battlefield" "and then what?" "..."
I agree with the people in chat who say they want to see this again. Maybe not immediately, give it room to breathe, but I would love to see you come back and draft this again, with more experience with the cube and a better understanding of how the cards work.
Could also take a few more packs worth of generated cards, remove the same number of packs, and you'd have a gradually shifting combination of knowledge and understanding these strange new cards.
In the new RoboRosewater development server, we actually got into contact with Graham about a second cube. He accepted, and we are bit by bit assembling the abomination. Stay tuned!
I got 40 mins into this video (halfway through second pack) and had to stop because I needed to lie down. I already had a bit of a headache, and laughing as hard as I was was NOT helping. Morgan, you are a saint and a scholar, and you have brought something truly beautiful into this world. Godspeed.
This is one of my favorite things ever, I would love for somehow this to be done again. Use all the packs, fix some other Robo Rosewater cards to "actual card" status, etc. I was laughing so much during this.
In case anyone is actually interested in drafting this, Urza's Dream Engine is a set of roborosewater cards with neural net generated artwork. There's even a downloadable pdf of the cards already seperated into draftable packs.
this is one of those streams where you can't have it on in the background, otherwise it's just Graham and Ben laughing. I will come back to this when I can really pay attention.
Gargoyle Hooters might be the most meta card ever. The flavor text points out the creature type "Human Corallrafk". If you look closely, it says LRR AFK.
@@Firelaw This is who i used for the printer btw. $72 for a full cube worth of cards. Basically the same quality as playing cards, added benefit is they cant be confused with actual mtg cards especially if you do a custom back. www.makeplayingcards.com/design/custom-blank-card.html
Coming back here to watch this over again. Hopefully one day we can see another Robo Rosewater cube. I would also like to point out the new “Blue Green Fractal” tokens when the first Robo Rosewater tokens mentioned in this video are “Blue Green Shapes”
Over a year later and still one of my all time favorite streams. Please bring this back, could do a COVID world friendly sealed tournament with RRW cube.
Before watching the actual game play: I saw this on Mail Time, and even if it totally sucks and you decide you should never play this again, just the fact that this could happen at least once makes me insanely happy.
He could have also just used the enchantment to kill all of cameron's creatures before they lose summoning sickness, making it essentially a one sided repeatable board wipe.
My favorite card here has to be Enigmatic Artifacthate, I don't know why, but it made me laugh so very hard when I realized how good a name it was for the card.
I loved the first match lol cameron was like I make a myr every time some1 casts something! And then alex was like . . . You made this? . . . I made this. Lol.
This is so silly and I love it. Usually in Magic streams the laughs come from the players making jokes about the cards, having the laughs come from the cards themselves really cranks up the entertainment factor
I can't get over the one card that makes a 1/1 flying plant goblin creature token. I'm just imagining a little bean friend with stubby limbs and a sprout propeller on their head. So cute.
Thanks! I was super curious since they didn't end up showing that token on stream. I feel like the goblin you went with would still be pretty cute if it weren't for their wicked snarl.
My favourite part of this video was in between round 2 match 2 and 3, when the sentences where like "Yeah, you should have jump blocked the homarid with minecrafter". Oh I love LLR and their intresting ideas.
I absolutely want to see you guys play this again in the future. There were even the other packs that weren't opened, so there are still surprises in there.
This is amazing, mad props to the gent/gal that put in the effort to make them. Also the art for all of these is as bonkers as all of the cards were. This was super fun to watch, and I'm only like 15 minutes in.
These cards are pretty awesome. "Exile target creature, then return a creature from your graveyard to your hand." Yeah, I can see that coming out in a real set, powerful but not game-breaking. But then it has STORM
"Aw someone forgot to close the gate again!" Someone, White Soul: "No I didn't!" "Excuse me I was talking about Someone, Reality Ancestor?" Some of these are more machine made poetry than cards, like Tap: Add Green to your mana pool. X. Tap: Add Green or Green to your mana pool. and Ancient Bloom: Create a 1/1 Saproling creature token for each card in your hand then draw that many cards instead.
Watching Alex block with goblins and then not sac them to his scarecrow for 2 +1/+1 counters, and not sac the zombie that was targeted for exile was driving me crazy. Then he traded it when he could've sacked another couple tokens to keep his best card alive. He seriously underutilized his best card.
1:05:39 Not sure if they corrected this later "Does this card [ability: "Creatures can attack"] get around Defender?" Iirc, comprehensive rules state that if two contradicting rules are in effect (a "can" and a "can't" rule), then the rule that disallows something (the "can't" rule) is the one in effect. Defender states the creature can't attack, that white creature states that creatures can attack. The result is still that the defender can't attack.
Maybe if there's enough interest I could try to make a second set, but I don't think there would be enough cards to have another full 360 with no repeats.
2:00 Just shout for Judge; and like a skeletal wraith wearing a judge shirt, drifts over to you, mouth open, silently screeching Points to the misplayed card, and then drifts back away
Don't know if anyone's mentioned it yet, but the art on Dash of the Ancients is that of the second Craven Idol record - The Shackles of Mammon, some nice black/thrash metal :)
Going back to this, I'm realizing something. Graham said that one of the tokens produced by this set was a blue/green Shape creature. Strixhaven has given us now blue/green Fractal creature tokens. Roborosewater is early design test for future sets confirmed?
"I Drood the Ozeference."
"I Abwatch."
This is Magic the way Glorblebloof intended.

So I am allowed to look at the order of my library, right? I can't change it, but I see exactly what I will draw
"What would the judges even say?"
*Smash cut to Serge, screaming angrily in several languages wearing a torn judge's shirt*
Weendigo172 lol
“Exile two cards”
It doesn't say what zone or who controls it. Just choose two cards and exile them. Doesn't say target, so shroud and protection won't help.
The blue green Shape token was really just the result of a Quandrix student's experiments with time travel
Nah, just drunken student shenanigans

Definitely a unique and not totally useless effect, but doesn't seem like it'd be worth a card and 5 mana just to know what order your cards are in.

Thank you! It was a lot of work and it was so much fun to see it come into fruition.
I love the cat that gives birds haste.
Please please PLEASE make a sequel for this with new Robo Rosewater cards, this was amazing
Maybe if there's enough interest I could try to make a second set, but I don't think there would be enough cards to have another full 360 with no repeats.
this was entertaining as hell, I would love for a second one.
I’m surprised Nelson didn’t get why card that shuffles your library into your graveyard is so funny 😂 it’s like a card that say loose the game

Just shout for Judge; and like a skeletal wraith wearing a judge shirt, drifts over to you, mouth open, silently screeching
Points to the misplayed card, and then drifts back away
Graham, in 2019: "A blue green Shape token"
Me, in 2021, post Strixhaven: "Sweet gods of math, how did they know?!'
Which part of that is true (havent played since aether revolt)
@@solidStalemate Fractal tokens showed up in Strixhaven (blue green tokens that enter with X +1/+1 counters), but they're also a type of shape.
This was beautiful, please play more with these cards!
My enjoyment this whole draft is watching Adam in the draft. Like whatever boys let me comb myself and watch you boys struggle on picks PRICELESS
56:20 Clearly, Ten-Caller's Leficuon was designed so a player could say "In response, I cast One with Nothing! I win!"
Don't know if anyone's mentioned it yet, but the art on Dash of the Ancients is that of the second Craven Idol record - The Shackles of Mammon, some nice black/thrash metal :)
Going back to this, I'm realizing something. Graham said that one of the tokens produced by this set was a blue/green Shape creature. Strixhaven has given us now blue/green Fractal creature tokens. Roborosewater is early design test for future sets confirmed?
