I have A LOT to say about this story. but im going to save it for a post mortem. For now, let just have fun and go over the COMPLETE story of Streets of New Capenna. Please like, share, and subscribe to support us
Pain when you misread Giada's name to Gaida :(
Thanks so much for this one!
But urabask and Elspeth... They aren't likely to see eye to eye.... We're gearing up for another monumentous event...
It’s an interesting story tho, sounds almost like redemption for Tezz, but I don’t believe it. Also, how’s a machine like Norn not going to notice his and Ura’s treachery? I’m sure it’ll blow up in their face somehow.
@@makennymaxime9328 Sounds more like Tezzeret seeing the writing of becoming obsolete on the wall and taking the quickest exit to save his own skin (whatever is left of it).
Haha, Urabrask is an introvert.
He was all good with work from Hotplace but then Elish Norn was all “yeah, I’m gonna need you to return to work at the porcelain office…that’d be great” and he was all “ No”
Man I love what you did with the diner at the beginning and end. You clearly worked hard to get this done in a timely fashion. Great work.
yesss my two favorite lore channels!!! I have "compleated" all your lore videos so far and same for the hub. you guys are my go to for all lore videos and my mega magic news...I know not the fantasy geographic but still I point all who look for good lore or news content to you both :)
Thanks as always buddy. Appreciate it :)
I hope both your channels keep up the great videos. Yall are my go to channels for lore.
"The Plane? It's bigger than this one city"
You know you *say* that...but so did Kaladesh. And Amonkhet. And Arcavios. And Fiora. And Mercadia.
At least Ravnica is honest about all of the interesting stuff happening in cities. XD
There is a Chandra origin story that takes place on Kaladesh in the countryside and in small villages.
In the Arcavios stories, some students have to go out into the swamp to do tasks. Liliana goes out into the wilderness to visit a dragon. Lucca goes to a small village full of rednecks that hate magic users. Liliana gets banished by a spell during a battle and lands so far out in the wilderness that it takes days to walk back to the college.
One of the Mercadia stories takes place in a small village of druid sort of people opposed to the cityfolk.
To be fair in both this case and Amonkhet, they established why the hell no one cares about what goes on outside the city, save the very scary shit that wants kill you, there’s not much out there.
All I want from this set is a Racoon folk legendary character!
And a new Urabrask, of course...
Highly doubt a Raccoon creature type will show up, given that the Tanuki from Neon Dynasty were typed as "Dog"
Contrary to popular belief, tanuki are dogs (nicknamed racoon dogs) not actual raccoons.
So this is where Rocket came from
Does anyone else feel in their bones that Xander has Marlon Brando's Godfather voice?
Yeah I didn’t realize how old Xander was. Seeing some of his art. It would work
I'm so glad Urabrask is back, he was one of my favorite praetors
I love it! I’m glad that they didn’t go the lazy route like they did with Theros beyond death. Elspeth in my opinion is an Awesome Character, and a perfect replacement for Gideon on the Gate Watch. Now this whole impending confrontation between her and Norn just gives me shivers of excitement! I can’t wait to see what happens next! And her new sword I cannot wait to see what that’s going to be like as an Artifact Equipment!
P.S they should’ve done actual dialogue of when Elspeth confronts Urabrask. Because unless she recognized him as the praetor who dislikes Norn, I imagine that she would have needed some talking to before being onboard with the whole alliance with him.
Gideon " I must protect everyone"
Elspeth " don't make me destroy all creatures with 3 or more power "
@@joebobby8371 lmao!!! Good one! Maybe that’s what they needed when Bolas was trying to kill everything! She’s 2-0 against Gods! That’s if yur not counting the Demi-god’s
Hey don't snag my boy Gideon, they did him dirty
I love reading the official story on the MTG website, but there's something about the way you tell them that makes it so much more enjoyable than just reading them myself. Keep up the great work!
This is an awesome telling of the capenna story. Now I don't have to read any more! Thanks guys
Bless be those who give perfection to the weak mortals
Bless be those who lay upon the alter to be compleated
Bless be our home of Phyrexia
It is time to finish what was started by our Majesty, time to bring the weak fool Urabrask to pay for standing in the way of perfection
Soon all will be One
All hail our Majesty
Elesh Norn
SO EXCITED!!!! This year is the best year of my Magic life
GREAT video love the jazz music in between. Tezzeret has added a HUGE twist to everything if he is betraying Elesh Norn it must be for his own purpose if this is just part of the Phyrexian plan then someone is about to be compleated and a traitor will be made the example of.
Glory to phyrexia
I really love the phyrexians, I like the phyrexian saga thing they got going on rn.
Elspeth looks amazing in that new art!
She really does. Rocking that roaring 20s look
I think eventually when the battle for new phyrexia happens, tezzeret will reveal himself to be the triple agent... deliberately infiltrating the Praetor's and the guild pack to unknowingly free his true master as a sleeper agent, nicol Bolas amist all the complaetion and chaos. With the planar Bridge merged with tezzeret I believe he'll ultimately be the gateway to nicol Bolas's return
I honestly expected Gaida to be a planeswalker, either already sparked due to the experimentations with her powers or igniting during the battle with ObNixilis.
Listening to this while Dominaria Spoilers are happening, it hits so differently and hurts so much
This is keeping me on the pooper alot longer than needed. Thanks for the story
As all true TH-camrs stride for. Thank you
@@AetherHub seriously top shelf content as always. Congrats on all the good stuff in non TH-cam life lately.
Thanks for all your hard work!! I love your content and I know how much time and effort you put in to your videos. They are amazing! You are my favorite TH-camr (by far!!!)
I AM OVER HYPED!!! FINALLY, Elspeth’s Home is revealed! I cannot wait to see the Cards in this Set!! My Favorite character is being givin her follow up story. I hope she shoves her Bright blade up Norns non-existent metallic/Plasma Donkey!
Great lore vid as always, love the idea of putting a night errant in a noir detective story. I hope the next big planespanning adventure could revolve around planswalkers finding a way to explore the blind eternities.
Whoa I didnt even know New Capena had released story already! You have opened my eyes!
The story closed quite a few gaps. But as you said, more open ends were made. But overall, I'm personally happy with the story.
Just thought Elspeth would end up being an angel.
There is still a chance she is one :)
Another great recap! Always love your videos. Whenever I feel like leaving the MtG vorthose community, your insight and information brings me back.
the amount of effort and passion I get from your videos is truly inspiring keep it going :)
Awesome as always, mate. Thank you
By how its presented, the New Capenna story is not bad but its horribly rushed. I'll wait for your follow up video.
I often hear the comment that the story could have been better, if it was split into more parts, across multiple sets and I agree. One set is sadly often not enough and I would have loved to learn more about the Families and their bosses. What I feel would have been an interesting way to tell the story would have been a reverse Khans and Fate Reforged approach. Split the story into two but start with the ancient conflict. Show us the battle against the phyrexians, the struggle that lead to the team up of Angels and Demons and the eventual betrayl by the demons. Make two Versions of each Boss, as I think all of them were alive during the ancinet conflict and show us how the families changed.
I miss blocks too
Great video Seiben, these videos are always your best work!
Thank you 🙏
awesome story telling ,you got me hooked since from the start of the video, splendid work, keep it up ,good sir :D 👌
I love how you incorporate the art with the audio
Some thoughts about this set...
It seems that Urabrask shall lead a rebellion in New Phyrexia, mostly supported by Tezzy. He'll be the key to stop Elesh Norn.
I do have the feeling that Giada's sacrifice is a foreshadowing of what to expect with Elspeth. Maybe she's also a daughter of angels, and thus her death, her blood, would purify the glistening oil wherever it expanded.
I missed your lore videos so as soon as I saw it pop up at the dawn I jumped on it
I really dig this story. And the way you tell the story gives it energy.
I look forward to your Lore videos every set!
Perfect use of classic art. Bravo good sir.
I been waiting for your synopsis. Thank you
We are only a few hours out of the last chapters release. I was ON IT for you guys. Hope you enjoy it :)
I think this set is a great tie in thank you for the great you're a great storyteller.
This was a great breakdown. Thanks 😊
Wait so Elspeth and Vivian never go back to Urabrask? They just run off to Dominaria?
I have the same doubt!
I love the story walk thru! But you kept calling Maestros - Mephistos haha
New Capenna would be an unorthodox place for Vivien to place roots, but with the angels freed that now becomes a possibility and the planet could really use an influx of green.
It was slightly better than I thought. Could have been more refined, for sure, but for once they're gearing the general lore in an interesting direction.
OK this intro is everything I needed
I got this bundle for NC yesterday. Bunch of neat creatures and effects. Would go well with some other decks I have in mind.
Love all your videos!
Now this is what I've been waiting for :3
I didn’t read it myself, but the synopsis was great!
I realy love your lore video's never stop
It was like a JJ Abrams story that answers questions by raising two more questions in its place until there isn’t enough time to answer all the questions so they just abandon them altogether.
so dope, great job
Fantastic story telling!
I had a stroke every time you called Giada gaida lol
Well done. Thanks
Good stuff as usual.
Very well put together and well read. I felt like I was listening to a noir
Thanks for the kind words and I’m glad you enjoyed it!
I love how the Phyrexians are lurking everywhere in every corner even among 6 demons they still are more dangerous
Great video
Plot twist Gaida is the reincarnation of Serra 😉.
That would be HYPE
I was hoping New Capenna would be like a remnant of Serra's realm that was corrupted sent hurtling through the multiverse or something. Alas
@@AetherHub I actually thought they were going to pull off an "Espeth is an Angel" right there. It would have worked so damn well. What a missed opportunity this was.
Julia Henriques I think they did, since Elspeth can also here the singing and also glowed like Gaida.
@@remen8021 ^ yep there's still a chance she too is an Angel :D
Love the intro bro
I enjoyed the easter egg of edward hoppers iconic painting "nighthawks" which also was used as part of the album cover... "open all nite" also by.. you guessed it.. the nighthawks😎
Are you a fan of the 1942 painting or the band? I met mark wenner and the guys awhile ago after a show locally and had him test out a custom harmonica a friend made and he loved it.. thanks for the great video as a whole.. i dont get to play much anymore because of my work doing food delivery fulltime but when ive got a 45 min commute home at night.. man this is perfect to listen to😎😁
Aether hub is my #1 spot for all lore MTG. Love what you do , keep up the amazing content.
Love the effort!
Thanks that means a lot. It’s validating to know people see it and appreciate it
Great story and delivery!
Why thank you. That means a lot friend
Looking forward to your next lores! Always here for these
but where is ashiok? they went to seek out the phyrexians in their goal to create the ultimate horror. i REALLY hope ashiok isn't compleated and actually lives to also see eldrazi and combine their properties into a scifi/fantasy horror that travels the unknown voids to consume all.
Hopefully coming soon in an expansion
Awesome video
Thank you 😊
Elspeth will always be my favorite plainswalker. She never turns evil.😊
Theros didn't accept her... She literally became a God there because of people's devotion to her.
I believe I speak for all of us when I say that we need more in-character intros and conclusions 🤣
If the mood fits. I’ll do it 🥰
We wanted a fedora wearing Urabrask, instead we got Urabrask as Batman xD
awesome content
Thank you 🙏
So Halo is definitely cocaine right?
Thank you for the compilation of the Beginning of the Phyrexian Revolution! All will be *None*!
(None! We are Independent! - The Rallying Cry of the Quiet Furnace)
This is the best channel for mtg lore. Second best is spice 8
I'm kinda mad they barely introduce these mob bosses and then immediately kill them off. It's so unsatisfying, and if we had gotten to know them better it could have been a better story.
Why does ob nixilis always gets his ass kicked 🙄
What! Already?! Need to check this.
I was diligent for a week, and worked my tail off today just so you guys had it early. Enjoy :)
Imagine when Phyrexians invade Capenna unites and fights using biplanes and zeppelins in the city spires
Kudos.
Anyone else get the feeling that Giada's family is actually the Brokers? I did not see any mention of the Brokers in this video, yet they are the faction most heavily associated with angels (in Streets of New Capenna). Soul of Emancipation destroys up to three target nonland permanents and its controller creates a 3/3 angel for each one destroyed this way. It reminds me of the part of the story when Giada busted the statues freeing the angels. Almost like she was freeing some of the Brokers. I think the Brokers minimal lore involved them being lawyers that were a little bit forceful, so essentially like vigilantes to some degree? And Elspeth who was the main protagonist of this story: her new card's -3 ability has to do with shield counters: the trademark ability of the Brokers and her ultimate creates an assload of angels. Coincidence? I think not! I always liked the Brokers because I like fliers and shield counters which is pretty much what the faction is most heavily centered around, so I do hope that there is more lore for them than just being aggressive lawyers with a bird that throws turncoats off of buildings. Albeit it would probably be like Patchy the Pirate making them walk the plank if one of the turncoats was a flier, I don't really imagine any of the angels would turn against the Brokers though assuming that Giada's family actually are the Brokers.
One complaint I have with the story, no Ob Nixilis perspective focused chapter. Something to fill in his side of this story and why target a specific mob faction for control.
This set confuses me.
Why are the angels all gone in the story, but there are tons of them on the cards?
Why was Elspeth so irresponsible that she had no weapon? Wasn't the Shadow Spear a great weapon? Couldn't she have bought a weapon or looted one from bad guys she beat up? If she had to, she could have planeswalked to Bant or Theros or someplace to pick up a weapon.
I'm all for trying to make a new plane unique and it's good to see the original shards as the wedges have had more than enough sets for now, but between the story and setting it all feels... off. Like this feels less like a plane from MTG and more like fanfic for an MTG plane. It feels like someone took Alara and threw out the idea "Hey! What if the shards... were run by mobsters?" Why not gangs of thieves, or different fleets of ships that all had different roles with their crews? I know that MTG is kinda having a problem with going back to already visited planes (Return to Return to Return to...) and it's getting harder to establish new and interesting ideas that have not been done yet, but this one just feels like it was outta left field for me.
Thank you sir for the reading. Made that last hour of work go by super quick!
Is this a reading or a summary?
Thanks for the video!
A summary for sure
@@AetherHub
A very good one.
I just imagine Ajani Goldmane bursting into incoherent sobs of joy that his best friend is alive and well
With what we know now...he surely burst into something, just not joy
Tbh I kinda just want a simple low stakes story for a change without established characters and without planeswalkers
Just a planes enhabitants dealing with the troubles of their own plane
Xander: We live in a (balanced) society
Nice coverage but the way you tortured Giada's name hurt so bad. One of the most beautiful names, too. It's "Jaa-dah", like with Giada De Laurentiis.
And Capenna.
And repeatedly called "Maestros" the "Mephistos"
He talked a bunch of times about his speech troubles, he struggles with certain pronunciations / sounds. He's a lot better now than he was years ago. He used to add subtitles so people would understand him.
Though the Mephisto mistake is an unforgivable sin. ;)
Loll
Dude I didn’t even know I made that mistake. Mephistos?? What was I thinking? 😅 all my rounds of editing I didn’t catch that…. I knew I probably messed up Gaida… and THOUGHT I got New Capenna right. There’s always room to grow I suppose 🙃
Elspeth the weapon collector
12:30 did you say pact?! Hmmmm I wonder if we will get any new ones?
I would love to see wedge color pacts. But looks like we got seals and commands instead.
@@AetherHub commands or charms? Because I love 3 color commands
What exactly is a Font?
Planeswalkers taking odd jobs like drug courier (Elspeth) or hired assassin (Kaya) kind of bothers me.
Seems like they’re a bit over qualified haha
@@AetherHub Elspeth… literally just escaped death and the underworld… to become a Grubhub driver for Halo. Seemed to get over Daxos pretty quickly and then dipped out on Ajani too. This writer didn’t do her justice…. If only there were TONS of source material for her.
@@MTG_Ronin By the same token, at this point she's so far removed from the ordinary experience of even planeswalkers... I doubt she would care about cleaning toilets if she thought it would advance whatever crusade she happens to be in. And diving headfirst into work and obsessing with her world is hardly "getting over Daxos". There's still plenty of room to develop her, even if we shouldn't get our hopes so high.
By now Magic is a game we're teaching our kids. It's getting to a point in which characters have been around for so long and gone through so much that they would need to be written by people with extensive adult life experience to have their inner complexities explored rather than just speculated about. Wizards has to choose between telling a story to us (more expensive, lower return on investment) or to another demographic (cheaper, higher return on investment), and they're clearly choosing teenagers and young adults here.
There's a HUGE problem with Elspeth's childhood story: Phyrexians didn't exist when she was young!!!
All phyrexians throughout the multiverse shutdown when Yawgmoth died. The only exception was Xantcha's heart inside Karn, which centuries later infected Mirrodin and gave birth to New Phyrexia.
Elspeth was born long after Yawgmoth's death, but decades before New Phyrexia. So... Why does she claim Phyrexians destroyed her home world? Is she much older than she appears? She'd have to be 1000 years old... Or is she lying? Or crazy? Or is she a victim of a bad author? It's a mysteriously mysterious mystery!
*Spooky Twilight Zone music*
Yeah I figured it must've been Yawgmoth's bunch on New Capenna if it happened so long ago. By all logic New Capenna just should not be her home or she is far older than we suspect...
The corruption of a plane only needs the Glistening Oil, there's no need of Yawgmoth. That's how we got new Phyrexia in Mirrodin. So the same can be true with the origin plane of Elspeth.
@@pelusoft I suppose that could be the retcon they're going for. But the old Phyrexians were all extensions of Yawgmoth. When he died, they all fell lifeless throughout the multiverse, the old oil became inert.
The Glistening Oil that gave birth to New Phyrexia was unique, it appeared when Karn created the plane of Argentum. Karn was built with the Phyrexian heart of Xantcha, and its Phyrexian programming contaminated Argentum's core at its creation, turning it into Mirrodin then into New Phyrexia. That's how the Glistening Oil was made, with the corrupted creation of a plane.
New Phyrexia was supposed to be the return of Phyrexians after Yawgmoth's death, so I'm a bit pissed with Elspeth loll. Her backstory implies that original Phyrexians did not all die after Yawgmoth. Or if we go with your idea, and the old oil could grow new Phyrexians anywhere, the multiverse should be teeming with them now.
@@askani21 I see your point. So we have to asume that the new Glistening Oil that turned Mirrodin into new Phyrexia is the the same that made Elspeth's plane fall. Then, somehow we'll need to tie Karn to Elspeth's plane. That way, we'll have an interesting conflict between them. As she risked her life for him already.
@@pelusoft Maybe Elspeth is actually an Elesh Norn Sleeper Agent from the future... and she was send back in time to infect her own plane!!!
*Mysterious music intensifies*
The Adversary vs. Xander part made me upset... You kept saying Advisor instead of Adversary and Mephisto instead of Maestro :(
Thanks for letting me know. I fudged up. I caught myself saying advisor many times and corrected it each time… but clearly I missed some. Same with Mephisto. I want to apologize for my lazy editing. I’m so sorry
Stoked for New-Cap City to hit MtGA
this was great.
I don't believe Urabrask and Tesseret, hopefully they won't desert Phyrexia. all will be one
Xander's card does not reflect his character in the story at all. In the story, he's more reclusive and secretive, while his card is aggressive and power driven. Just feels like there is a lot of information that is either not shared or relayed between writers and production. I know that first and foremost it's a card game, but still feels like a very lazy design for the character who could have been more interesting in both aspects.
I dunno, I would have thought hand discard, mill and sacrifice as mechanics that seem more manipulative and mind trickery rather than brute force.
I'd honestly buy a wine bottle of Halo if wizards made a replica of the stuff, my limit is 25.00$.
Same. I know they make liquor with sparkles and swirling cosmic designs to them. I know it’s possible!
Some content creators are getting press kits with Halo in it. Zbexx showed hers off.
@@danielbretado7660 the real question is: can it be ingested.
This music is super familiar. Does it happen to be from Unhanded the mobile card game
Sadly I’m not sure. I got it from a royalty free music site. So possibly.
@@AetherHub its in the vivien meets ubrask section but I just recognized it
Snazzy Urabrask, lov it.
Only missing a fedora.
@@AetherHub He left it on New Phyrexia.
I hope this is t a one off. They could have done this over a couple of sets
With stories like these, why on earth would netflix not use elsoeths story
