Hey, I feel bad for asking, but might you help me out? My OKX wallet holds both USDT TRX20 and the recovery phrase [ clean party soccer advance audit clean evil finish tonight involve whip action ] How do I send it to OKX or OKX?
Hey! New viewer here. Started following your channel a few weeks ago and your podcasts have been a wonderful way to pass time while I've been recovering from an injury. Thank you so much for all the insightful observations, all the hot takes and hours upon hours of free entertainment! Merry Christmas!
Hi, sorry for the inconvenience, but I need your help. I’ve got USDT TRX20 stored in my OKX wallet with the recovery phrase (clean party soccer advance audit clean evil finish tonight involve whip action). How do I send it to OKX or OKX?
Tomer’s “two for one” approach is absolutely key to seeing the value in these Swat effects. In commander it’s so pivotal to get the most out of your card slots and having a protection plus a removal spell (albeit conditional) is graaaavy.
Untimely malfunction is soooooo good... nothing better than redirecting a path from your threats to something important on its casters board... get the jars ready for the salt that follows
I know it's a reserve list card but Richard forgot Lotus Vale as part of the catch up ramp package which actually proves his point more making it even more consistent. In Mono White I've actually gone super all in on the catch-up ramp package also running Ghost Quarter, Wasteland, Strip Mine, Urza's Saga, Scavenger Grounds, Buried Ruin, and Command Beacon. You can probably cut some of those if you want more coloured sources but it becomes really consistent with that many ways to go down a land.
Arid archway is good because you can spend the mana before you tap it. I play it in my standard mono black discard where I have alot of 1 drops but lacking in the 2 to 3 drop spells and want to ramp into my 4 and 5 drop spells better and I definitely count it as a land draw by putting a land back in my hand
@@japplek the best win rate in an insanely specific meta that has nothing to do with high powered play because they have to play and build for content, not power.
My favorite thing about 2024 is that Ach, Hans! Run!, Tomer's Luxurious Hair, The Official Fish of Eastern Massachusetts, and West Coast Batdz-Maru continue to regale us with such wondrous wit and witticisms. Great year, lads!
I do agree with him that the card is very good, but it definitely is not an auto-include in every deck like he plays it. In particular, I like them in decks where you can play lands from graveyards. Being able to use channel lands or cycle lands, play them from the yard and then bounce them back to hand is incredibly powerful and grindy. He just windmill slams these into everything though, which I do agree with Tomer is just a tempo loss.
@@alexkulis7295I also think he's right when it comes to slamming it into Mono White with the catch-up ramp package and possibly two colour decks with White in them but I'm a bit more iffy on that. In Mono White you not only have the space for running Lotus Vale, Lotus Field, Guildess Commons, and Arid Archway you can also run colourless lands that put you down a land whenever you want or naturally put you down a land like Strip Mine, Wasteland, Ghost Quarter, Urza's Saga, Command Beacon, Buried Ruins and Scavenger Grounds while still having enough basic plains to be fine.
Dont forget with the new redirects they also can target/copy abilities not just spells which can really mess people up. Just last week i redirected aether flux and returned the favor a extra turn spell giving me two while they got non!
Ocelot Pride is like a 1 mana Doubling Season for creatures on a stick. Once you have the City's Blessing it doesn't just double it's own tokens, it doubles ALL of the tokens you produce on a turn. If it doesn't work out your investment was only 1 mana. That's why this card is going for so much.
You better at least spend 5 minutes talking about how insane the manabase has become this year. MDFC's, Surveils, Non-basic support, a bunch of dope utility lands. Never, not ever, has a new year of cards changed the commander manabase so much.
People always talk about red redirect effects as only usefull vs targeted removal but they are actually much more flexible than that, you just kinda have to be tricky. For instance i once changed the target of an opponents reanimate spell to a some random shit that wasn't relevant. Also lets you engage in counterspell wars. Lots of things have targets.
I completely would’ve missed it if it hadn’t been the top seller on cardmarket for a few weeks straight lmao, I’d rather have it over Abrade 9/10 times
@Azeria yeah protecting your commander with a redirect is probably more important that killing a creature toughness 3 or less. I think I'll find room for both though
So happy for my favorite commander Kambal, Proditeering Mayor to finally get the recognition it deserves! It got no hype during spoiler season but Kambal is a low key powerhouse that makes a lot of "bad" cards absolutely cracked (e.g., Tombstone Stairwell)
Not that it needed more reasons to be good, but Warren Soultrader is also a great goblin tribal card with all the tokens and a second Skirk Prospector.
Also just to pitch my own goblin deck, goblin fans should try Gut True Soul Zealot and Haunted One. Since rakdos Goblins can do impact tremors in multiple ways and aristocrat strategies, so you can do a lot with it.
Return the favor and untimely malfunction are both in my mono-red "counterspell" package, people rarely expect the interaction out of red so it's a lot easier to catch people lacking
Ive been playing bounce lands alot more than i had in recent years. Mostly in mono and 2 colored decks to return MDFCs i cant quit get there in most 3 color decks.
Why does Richard never run scorched ruins or lotus vale? Feels exactly the same as lotus field but just significantly stronger with his copy land package and his untap land package.
Scrawling Crawler and Psychosis Crawler killed the entire table in my Jin-Gitaxias Progress Tyrant. Having two of both just wiped life totals in no time flat. It worked incredibly well.
My three favorite cards this year have been Arch druids charm( every green deck). I love Trouble in pairs and put into anything with White . And the land that I've put in every single one of my decks this year has been Fountain Port. It's never let me down.
I’m running Three Tree City in my Baylen and Hare Apparent deck and regularly hit 20+ mana on it. The deck is definitely in that niche that Tree City needs though.
Tomer on Shifting Woodland: "It could be a tap land if you don't have a forest! Booooo!" Tomer on Arena of Glory: "Wooooo! Love this card! I'd cut a mountain for it!"
I said it can enter tapped in response to "there's no downside, it enters untapped" because the people saying that notoriously run like 1-3 basics in their decks.
@tomerabramovici32 That's fair 😆 I just thought it was funny you didn't have the same critique for a land in the same cycle. I'm also biased because I think you're sleeping hard on Shifting Woodland.
People sleep on sword of wealth and power way too much, it gives 'fair' hexproof, it ramps(!), but best of all, it is a duplication for spells in generic(!!): double in reanimator, double tutors and all the lovely discard spells, double tooth and nail in green, double buff spells in mono-white, etc. It has so much potential considering it is a triggered ability, so for example, strionic can copy it, and with a way to untap strionic... Happy Holidays!
Over and above the desert bounce land (it's cool and I do want a bounce land or two in most decks), I've been running a lot more of the Conduit Pylon type lands this year. ETB untapped surveil or Scry 1, tap for colorless or filter for a color. Running 2-3 of those in a mana base to smooth out draws and deck flow.
Untimely Malfunction is my COTY, every mode is great at 2 mana and I think it goes in every single red deck ever. 2 mana is also the cheapest cost for a redirect too (not counting casting Deflecting Swat for free), so the extra modes are just gravy
I have so far had great to insane success with Three Tree City in following commander decks: - Ovika, Enigma Goliath - just goated Battle Hymn on a stick on a demand that just sticks on board after any wipe, S+++ Class. - Niko, Light of Hope - waaaay clunkier but if I am able to hold off playing it and naming any creature type that's Angels, which are the main wincons, it's amazing. I also have flicker spells so I can reset it if I want so it gets nuttier then but that wasn't needed much. - Ghired, Mirror of the Wilds - This is a Hare Apparent deck, which plays a little too close to Ovika, Enigma Goliath so the Three Tree City is as insane here as it is there, but I am planning to either make this one have a combat based wincon or just be a Ghired.dec not a GhiredAndBunnies.dec and move the bunnies elsewhere. Three Tree City is just utter insanity in a decks it was made for.
I play field of ruin & demolition's field in every deck mostly for cabal coffers/ field of the dead etc. but if I have nothing to do with my mana one turn and there is a bounceland on the battlefield... That's why I don't run them in my decks as I know my friends would do the same.
26:28 It's not really the cheapest haste enabler land. Hall of the Bandit Lord cost no additional mana not even next turn. It only cost life every time 😅
Bouncing a mdfc is card draw, I can see most deck playing 3/4 and next year we'll probably get more good ones. I don't like any sort of tap land but this value can't be overlooked
Shout out to the sadly reserved list but not too expensive lotus vale, not hexproof like lotus field but comes in untapped so you aren't down a mana and still has the same effect as field in terms of catch up ramp
Random thoughts Richard with majority of his includes being mono white weenie support. Forever flavorful. I can’t get on board with the bouncelands There are so many good cards this year.
I think richard is crazy in a lot of topics, but i think he's right about bounce lands. Apart from the case in which people want to sabotage themselves because you get even more screwed by wastelanding a bounceland, it's just very good at the cost of tempo, and in casual edh tempo just almost doens't matter. Even in the worst case with discarding to hand size, wouldn't you loot for a land on turn 2 if you didn't have a land drop for next turn? It's like milling with a surveil land to try and draw a land next turn, except it's guaranteed to be a land. The upside is consistence on land drop, all the other synergies are a plus is how richard thinks, and i think that in casual multiplayer that's mostly correct
40:13 tell me this: is there really a big difference between discard to hand size and surveil 1? In some of my decks, I love a turn 2 discard to hand size.
You missed karoo. Karoo is a mono W and boros staple to get critical mass of bounce lands to keep up with the table cause white needs to cut every corner to keep up cause white is the worst ramp color. Its only catchup.
Hi, a question, I'm torn between jump scare and mothman. I know they have different playsstyles, but which one would you recommend taking considering the starting deck and the competitiveness while investing relatively little? Thank you
I've had Shifting Woodland in my mono green deck for a while, I never have had the opportunity to use it so it's kinda meh... it's the steep activation price... the best ones for me are the one mana cost ones, the red one, the black one Spymaster's Vault (bonkers sometimes), and even Archway of Innovation.
Of course, Richard has talked about Open The Way in about every podcast since it came out and he doesn't even mention it as one of his top or favorite cards of the year.
I often finish listening to episodes of this podcast wondering whether Richard has ever actually played commander. Today I find myself wondering whether he's ever played magic.
Mpcfill is excellent in my experience. I recently ordered 241 cards for 2 new decks + some new cards for my old decks and it cost $115 total. So long as the cards are sleeved your opponents will rarely know the difference (the backs of non-MDFCs make it very clear that they're proxies)
not so fun fact: we got this year to over 2k new cards. together with last year its little over 4k. thats close the same amount we got in 6 years with 2007 to 2012. so basically we are close to tripple the amount of new cards... thats alot. if you ever wonder why it feels like its too much, here you have some numbers to throw at people. also cards have more words and alternative art.
could yall make a mtgGoldfish magic ASMR video? Where yall just say thinks about magic for like hours? Basically what this is but i need more ASMR vibe
Best commander podcast, content, personalities, etc. in the multiverse. Thanks guys.
Thanks!
Tomer did you get robbed? They only left you one commander deck.
At least it was tribal tribal
😂
He sold his collection. Nothing is more budget than proxies 🤷♂️
Had to sell it all to afford a spare key for his partner.
Shelf died to farewell
Oh no, the Grinch has robbed Tomer's shelves.

Don’t forget to bounce your exerted arena of glory with your bounce lands to do it again next turn
Thank you so much for the incredible year of content!!
Thanks for watching!
Untimely malfunction is soooooo good... nothing better than redirecting a path from your threats to something important on its casters board... get the jars ready for the salt that follows
IMO, before watching the video:
1. Surveil lands
2. MDFCs
3. Trouble in Pairs
Nailed it
TIP needs a reprint with non-stolen artwork. Bit of a travesty that one of the best cards of the year looks terrible and is ill-gotten.
Surveil lands are so overrated
@@peewee0224if you think that you either havent played with them yet or you dont use fetch lands. Otherwise you wouldnt say that
@ I’ve done both they are fine. Good in 2 color decks fine in 3 and mid in 4. It’s 1 mana for surveil isn’t that good
I feel like Richard explaining catch up ramp to Crim is like when Man Ray is explaining the wallet to Patrick but he still doesnt get it.
We going to ignore the fact that Richard Farewell’d tomer’s shelves?
He couldn't Untimely Malfunction it
I know it's a reserve list card but Richard forgot Lotus Vale as part of the catch up ramp package which actually proves his point more making it even more consistent.

You can probably cut some of those if you want more coloured sources but it becomes really consistent with that many ways to go down a land.
Normally Richard has some unhinged take, but today I agree with him. As a bouncy boi, I love Arid Archway.
I think the fact they got so many more good MDFC's really upped the power of these bounce lands.
Richard gets so much shit from people who somehow keep ignoring the fact that he has the best win rate.
Arid archway is good because you can spend the mana before you tap it. I play it in my standard mono black discard where I have alot of 1 drops but lacking in the 2 to 3 drop spells and want to ramp into my 4 and 5 drop spells better and I definitely count it as a land draw by putting a land back in my hand
@@japplek THATS WHAT I KEEP SAYING!!! Like literally I don't think he has missed once on a take.
@@japplek the best win rate in an insanely specific meta that has nothing to do with high powered play because they have to play and build for content, not power.
Arid archway elevated an entire green ramp package to the top. Every spell that tutors a desert to field in green is peak
merry christmas eve
Merry Christmas eve!
It was the year of Richard hot takes. Was glad to see Tomer back on clash
I actually appreciate this so much, I’ve been out of the EDH scene for about two years and stuff like this is super helpful for keeping up.
My favorite thing about 2024 is that Ach, Hans! Run!, Tomer's Luxurious Hair, The Official Fish of Eastern Massachusetts, and West Coast Batdz-Maru continue to regale us with such wondrous wit and witticisms. Great year, lads!
Leave it to Richard to brand "card of the year" a card that's basically a slightly better Guild Commons.
I do agree with him that the card is very good, but it definitely is not an auto-include in every deck like he plays it. In particular, I like them in decks where you can play lands from graveyards.

New player here. Great analysis by Richard about bounce land and Arid Archway. Made me think about auto-including colorless bounce lands.
10:42 i played a game with my kambal against a clone deck and we ended up accidentally making infinite kambals. it was hilarious.
Not that it needed more reasons to be good, but Warren Soultrader is also a great goblin tribal card with all the tokens and a second Skirk Prospector.

Sevinne's Reclamation is also a solid ramp spell in white when you play fetches or any good amount of sac lands... I play it in every white deck

Flare of Fortitude is a must-include for white. It’s been so good every time I’ve drawn it. I have so many stories of how it saved me.
Thanks for the content ❤
Huge believer in the Sand Scout packages in nongreen decks. Dual land desert, scavenger grounds, and arid archway

Three Tree City is just utter insanity in a decks it was made for.
I’m on team Richard. Lots of mdfc, and as many bounce lands as I can. Want to ‘draw a card’ pick up a spell land!
For me, it's insane hearing Crim saying bouncelands are not a "big deal" when he plays 8 MDFC lands per deck.
Surprised there was no Bloodthirsty Conquerer on the list, but the rest is spot on.
I can't believe trouble in pairs was printed this year. Crazy.
3:42
Sethnis absolutely correct. These lands are singlehandedly the best cards of the last year a s there isn't any other obvious choice.
I play field of ruin & demolition's field in every deck mostly for cabal coffers/ field of the dead etc. but if I have nothing to do with my mana one turn and there is a bounceland on the battlefield...
That's why I don't run them in my decks as I know my friends would do the same.
Personally I would have ulamog up there too even if it’s killed as soon as it’s cast it gets rid of half of a player’s library
Tomer, you can turn Shifting Woodland into a copy of Phage and avoid her etb trigger, attack, and k.o. someone. 🤣
26:28 It's not really the cheapest haste enabler land. Hall of the Bandit Lord cost no additional mana not even next turn. It only cost life every time 😅
Warren soul trader is the most slept on card of 2024
Bouncing a mdfc is card draw, I can see most deck playing 3/4 and next year we'll probably get more good ones. I don't like any sort of tap land but this value can't be overlooked
Shout out to the sadly reserved list but not too expensive lotus vale, not hexproof like lotus field but comes in untapped so you aren't down a mana and still has the same effect as field in terms of catch up ramp
oh man :D the salt with that Shifting Woodlands was unnecessary :D
Random thoughts
Richard with majority of his includes being mono white weenie support. Forever flavorful.
I can’t get on board with the bouncelands
There are so many good cards this year.
Seth still fighting for Three-Tree City like that Japanese soldier who kept fighting WW2 years after it was over.
Is this a best cards podcast or a modern horizons 3 reflective?
Fair to say that set had good magic cards in it
Too many cards? Well at least next year i can just ignore half of the sets (universe beyond).
I think richard is crazy in a lot of topics, but i think he's right about bounce lands. Apart from the case in which people want to sabotage themselves because you get even more screwed by wastelanding a bounceland, it's just very good at the cost of tempo, and in casual edh tempo just almost doens't matter.

The upside is consistence on land drop, all the other synergies are a plus is how richard thinks, and i think that in casual multiplayer that's mostly correct
They need to print scry lands with basic types to compete with surveil lands
Having Crim read Nadu is great
40:13 tell me this: is there really a big difference between discard to hand size and surveil 1? In some of my decks, I love a turn 2 discard to hand size.
Arena of Glory has really put in a lot of work.
Commie Commander here,
Pretty good list. Spread you guys didn't talk about what the best commander is for 2024.
Crim is so right on Scrawler. It plays better than you think.
I'm surprised Tomer the cheerleader of Enchantress is hmmming at an enchantment creature that copies all your other enchantment creatures.
You missed karoo. Karoo is a mono W and boros staple to get critical mass of bounce lands to keep up with the table cause white needs to cut every corner to keep up cause white is the worst ramp color. Its only catchup.

Pick your Poison is a pretty insane card.
I often finish listening to episodes of this podcast wondering whether Richard has ever actually played commander. Today I find myself wondering whether he's ever played magic.
“Nantuckoo” is absolutely how that card is pronounced
Ocelot kind of a card I would drawn if I was Rhys.
Delney is absolutely nuts. Card goes off by accident.
My Hare Apparent deck agrees 👍
Surprised Seth isn't as enamored with Disorienting Choice. Wipe out up to three targets or put lands of your choice into play.
Here to vouch for scrawling crawler
How did fear of missing out not make this list? lol and none of the overlords?
Everyone’s talking about Tomer’s robbed bookshelf, but why does Seth have a guitar hanging backwards on his wall?
Sad news for Seth, Nykthos was not printed in the last decade
My comment of the week is, What was the actual card of the year?! 😅
Are we getting new pictures of richard for the thumbnails in 2025? LOL
RIP: Dockside, Crypt, and Jeweled Lotus.
What's the best proxy site?
Mpcfill is excellent in my experience. I recently ordered 241 cards for 2 new decks + some new cards for my old decks and it cost $115 total. So long as the cards are sleeved your opponents will rarely know the difference (the backs of non-MDFCs make it very clear that they're proxies)
Petition for Richard to get a new thumbnail face
Am I crazy or is arena of glory just a slightly different hall of the bandit lord?
not so fun fact: we got this year to over 2k new cards. together with last year its little over 4k. thats close the same amount we got in 6 years with 2007 to 2012.
so basically we are close to tripple the amount of new cards... thats alot.
if you ever wonder why it feels like its too much, here you have some numbers to throw at people. also cards have more words and alternative art.
