Actually I had this video on in the background and stopped what I was doing to comment on this, only to see you already did. Yes, this has to be one of the greatest puns I've heard in a long time, even though all my other sheep are named pun.
Am I confused or does Eilidh having a Blood Crypt in Atraxa not work? Also, yay for Chase standing up to peer pressure! You are an inspiration to all of us!
Let's just pretend it's Temple Garden or something lol. I played these decks as I was handed them because I haven't had time to build my own new ones 🤣
@@EDHijinks It was definitely a Watery Grave since you grabbed it with a Scalding Tarn (since it was a Mountain, which your deck couldn't have, but in REVISIONIST HISTORY version of this episode, it would be an Island instead) and you always tapped it for Black.
3 minutes in and I'm laughing at the discussion of Olivia being tiny and also wanting a montage video of her lifting every other MTG content creator. I love this series so much!
So, Eilidh actually had game with something that is easy to miss. The Thrull Parasite can target anything, so that could have been used to pop the protection bubble on the angel. This would have let Best the Sea God take it at the precombat main phase and let Eilidh swing in for lethal.
@@EDHijinks The Parasite doesn't actually need to do anything, it just needs to target the angel. Kira stops any attempt to interact with its friends even if it wouldn't actually do anything. So when the Parasite goes to target the angel the Kira ability is used to counter it and you're now free to target the angel with anything since the protection bubble Kira makes was popped by the Parasite.
@@Blaze_1013 I think it would be an illegal target for Parasite because it is looking to remove a counter from target permanent, thus if it has no counters on it, Parasite can't target it legally. Countering Kira's trigger would be a way to go by using Disallow or Stifle, but those types of spells are not fun cards.
@@hemjold That actually isn't the case. First ruling on gatherer "The nonland permanent you choose as the target doesn't have to have any counters on it."
I saw Olivia at the summit. She is indeed shorter in person than in the videos. This was a great episode. Glad chase was able to beat peer pressure and win the game!
7 damage, gets doubled by Aurelia to 14. Triggers Saskia which deals 14 which gets doubled by Aurelia to 28. So all together, Olivia takes 42 which is just enough :)
I have said it before and I will say it again. I really enjoy watching these videos. I do wish that the games were in person just because I think it would be really fun to watch.
Blood Crypt in Atraxa, paying for Sisay's casting cost with an Island, Mountain and a Swamp? What sort of hijinks is this?!? Oh, wait, it's right there in the name...
Lol...knowing this channel, there will _ALWAYS_ be hijinks! This is the dread bargain Olivia and AliasV struck with the TH-cam gods. It must be fulfilled, as they say.
this one had my dying hahah "oo bb tell me how my friends dont respect me" "tell me you hate that outfit i wear but you like it on someone else" i died lololol
I've seen this game several times, and I have 2 suggestions for Alias and her deck: 1) Lithoform Engine 2) Strionic Resonator The reason for these suggestions is that by paying 2, you can copy triggered abilities -- which means that you can then deal with Kira by targeting it twice with an exile, then on the next turn, target both the Truth-Seeker and Gisela with exile, since you get two targets, because of two triggers. At that point, the game becomes academic, and I believe Alias wins off of having a 10-power Atraxa, given she can gain life. Another include could be Angel of Destiny, so that once Atraxa gets Alias to 15 or more life above 40, all she has to do is swing with Angel of Destiny, so that way, at her end step, the player swung at with Angel of Destiny loses the game. Other includes could be Winds of Abandon (one of the few non-blue and non-red Overload cards), Dolmen's Gate or Iroas, God of Victory as well.
I get such "Coming to America" vibes off that Sol Ring that Chase and, on a previous episode, Joe used I move that it from now on be referred to as the Soul Ring, and it has to be referred to using thf player's best attempt at a James Brown impression.
Hey! great video! Just a couple of things, waiting for the new and improved Liliana list, also the follow the players section might be wrong for this video.
I am utterly shooketh now knowing Olivia is only 5’3”. Partially because I’m 5’6”. But mostly having seen her stand next to people like Kibler and she doesn’t look particularly short in comparison. My whole understanding of reality is challenged.
i think oliva got lost in the value sauce on the turn she tried to cast contamination cause she forgot to flip lilly cant say i haven't been there before lol
I’d love to see you bring back atraxa enchantress Olivia. I’m working on building a Kydele/Tymna enchantress deck that is sorta a redux of the modern ad naus strategy and I’d love to see how your enchantress deck plays and what cards you have in there.
I have Old Gnawbone in my Faldorn Dreadwolf Herald Deck, Still upgrading the deck though, but Old Gnawbone will be in it. Olivia, Old Gnawbone says Hi 🤣 I'm also in the process of upgrading my Beledros Witherbloom deck. Its the first deck I've ever built and there are a ton of cards I want to put in it. It will be so awesome after I am done upgrading it.
hey! i enjoyed your great chemistry, for that is what edh should be about.. besides, i think i catch tyler durden (wearing his iconic "m.jacksons" red leather jacket) blinking near olivia a second before the 44th minute - what a sign, to build liliana too :) ? cheers guys, from the czech republic with love
you need ways to blink the Saskia after KO'ing a player in one hit. so something like cloudshift or conjurer's closet or something that is fantastic. but since its secret lair tribal or whatever the deck is, I guess you are out of blink spells
@13:30 when Jim takes 2 damage from Tor Wauki due to the Mana Vault, that was lifelink damage from Tor Wauki so wouldn't that cancel out? Take 1 from Vault, Take 2 from Tor Wauki, gain 2 from Tor Wauki,
There's a slight distinction. Tor Wauki's first ability is a replacement effect that acts on Mana Vault's damage trigger to add 1 to it, but the source of the damage is still Mana Vault. I can only gain life off the damage trigger from Tor Wauki when I cast instants and sorceries because the source of that damage is Tor Wauki.
Turn after Michiko came down Eilidh should have attack with the 3 construct, Atraxa and the kraken. Resulting in 14 damage (after halving) if i am correct, then sac the saga's that where going away end step or the 1/1's. Next turn Chase doesn't untap and only has 6 mana available, which i think would not be able to produce enough blockers to stop the same attack from Eilidh the next turn resulting in Eilidh winning the game. Fun pod though.
No they don't. If counters are removed from a Saga, the appropriate chapter abilities will trigger again when the Saga receives lore counters. Removing lore counters won't cause a previous chapter ability to trigger.
Is "Hellbent" being used here (i.e. 41:26) to indicate that the player is out of cards in hand? I'm assuming so, given Olivia's physical gesture to the camera.
i would have just used thrull parasite for Kiora II and III to untap to gain control on Chase's artifacts and lands (chrome lantern and plains since she doesn't have green mana) then attack and sacrifice those permanents to Michiko
I'm a bit disappointed that the land base in that "only secret lair" deck isn't secret lair only. But I understand that it just would be a bit too expensive.
@@johnny_crash Nah some of the basics in there are the bonus cards that were originally included in old SLs I am looking to change them to all full art ones though
How is a rakdos land in an Atraxa deck? Please educate me. Edit: I know why the izzet fetch is allowed, and that same rule would disqualify the rakdos dual land, no?
I gotta say flipping the Lili two turns later because Olivia forgot the trigger is Kind of mean. If you had a discard outlet on the field Jim may not have paid for the companion… Also how do you play blood crypt in atraxa? :-D Loved the Tor Wauki/Obosh deck
"I am practicing my necromancy, I am dead lifting!" is an underrated comment from Olivia. :)))
I missed it in game, but it caught me off guard in the edit. Holy crap, I canned myself.
Why are necromancers so buff? They do so much dead lifting!
I'll let myself out.
It's how we stay in tip top shape
Just make sure to not skip leg days, or you minions will be crawling around
Actually I had this video on in the background and stopped what I was doing to comment on this, only to see you already did.
Yes, this has to be one of the greatest puns I've heard in a long time, even though all my other sheep are named pun.
Seeing Chase and Jim makes me happy they are both great parts of the community.
OMG Olivia! “I’m just practicing my necromancy. I’m deadlifting!”🤣🤣🤣 Something Joey Schultz would say too! So good!😂
38:06 to bookmark the “I’m deadlifting!” comment! 😂
Oliva could cackle with ZERO context and I would still chuckle every time 😂😂🤣
I love Olivia's triggering land base.
Olivia is the definition of tiny but mighty
Am I confused or does Eilidh having a Blood Crypt in Atraxa not work? Also, yay for Chase standing up to peer pressure! You are an inspiration to all of us!
Yeah, but nothing we can do now lol
@@hra6 It is all good. I just kept looking at it all game like "How are you here? What dark deals did Eilidh make for you to be here?!".
Let's just pretend it's Temple Garden or something lol. I played these decks as I was handed them because I haven't had time to build my own new ones 🤣
@@EDHijinks It was definitely a Watery Grave since you grabbed it with a Scalding Tarn (since it was a Mountain, which your deck couldn't have, but in REVISIONIST HISTORY version of this episode, it would be an Island instead) and you always tapped it for Black.
The deck builder is on the same baby sleep deprived creation schedule as the player :p

Welcoming Jim to the "Explorer's Scope is good and cool" brigade w/ open arms
Petition to let Jim run 3 mana draw effects in this deck tho
Woooo! Mana Curves! It’s always awesome seeing local friends playing with my favorite group

How exactly? It's not a counter keeping the creatures safe, it's Kira's ability. 🤔

Came here to see if anyone else caught this
So this is where last week’s Olivia intro was supposed to go lol
I love all 4 of these decks. All unique and they bounced off of eachother in interesting ways.
I love Olivia's swamp land base in this deck! 🤣 I am so going to do that in my mono red Ilharg deck
I was definitely in the camp that thought Olivia was taller 😂
I never noticed before, but there's a lot of strong 'protect your stuff' cards from Secret Lairs.
I really love Jim say "EHHHH" discarding Obosh
I saw Olivia at the summit. She is indeed shorter in person than in the videos. This was a great episode. Glad chase was able to beat peer pressure and win the game!
it's true, my personality outpaced my stature XD
@@goberthicks hey! If that's really you, I was trying to get your autograph but you were on the GO, GO, GO 😆. Maybe at the next event?
@@tommieboi707 it's really me! And deal, I'd be honored to sign something for ya!
7 damage, gets doubled by Aurelia to 14. Triggers Saskia which deals 14 which gets doubled by Aurelia to 28. So all together, Olivia takes 42 which is just enough :)
Eilidh's reaction to Michiko Konda, Truth Seeker hitting the battlefield! Can definitely identify with her pain.
29:24 Deep-seated psychological damage is why I tune in every week.
Man, 29:25 onwards was just a peeling back the layers on my own commander group. I wasn't ready for that....
Love all the content and always get fun deck ideas from Olivia and her shenanigans
“I don’t translate to 5’3” “ is the truest statement in the world. Wouldn’t have been my guess
I love the part where Jimothy says “bullshit” twice in a row, but only the first time gets censored.
Crap. He got me!
I have said it before and I will say it again. I really enjoy watching these videos. I do wish that the games were in person just because I think it would be really fun to watch.
Yes, Olivia is strong. So lots of people are still waiting for that arm wrestling match with Josh Lee Kwai.
Listen so am I, every time I see Josh I ask him when we're gonna do our arm wrestling match
"You did this to yourself" I see we're getting the 'Go-Shintai' deck this week :p
Don't forget to hit the things that make the dings. Olivia vs Jim. The start of a brilliant rivalry. RCNemisis
Cool show with the cutest guests. Jim and Chase are just so hilarious all the time :)
Blood Crypt in Atraxa, paying for Sisay's casting cost with an Island, Mountain and a Swamp? What sort of hijinks is this?!? Oh, wait, it's right there in the name...
Lol...knowing this channel, there will _ALWAYS_ be hijinks! This is the dread bargain Olivia and AliasV struck with the TH-cam gods. It must be fulfilled, as they say.
this one had my dying hahah "oo bb tell me how my friends dont respect me" "tell me you hate that outfit i wear but you like it on someone else" i died lololol
Instead of sacrificing the clown token at the end, could Chase have sacrificed saskia to then bring her back with Mike?
Love these videos, always good energy. Even when Olivia is salty 😋
I've seen this game several times, and I have 2 suggestions for Alias and her deck:
1) Lithoform Engine
2) Strionic Resonator
The reason for these suggestions is that by paying 2, you can copy triggered abilities -- which means that you can then deal with Kira by targeting it twice with an exile, then on the next turn, target both the Truth-Seeker and Gisela with exile, since you get two targets, because of two triggers. At that point, the game becomes academic, and I believe Alias wins off of having a 10-power Atraxa, given she can gain life.

I never gonna stop shouting: MISSMATCHED BASICS IS WHERE IS AT!
YES
WHITE BORDERS FOR THE TILTING lol :)
If I had the skills I'd alter all of my decks to be gold bordered or holiday bordered.
Mono one drop, what a wild concept
Hey! great video! Just a couple of things, waiting for the new and improved Liliana list, also the follow the players section might be wrong for this video.
I was pretty excited to see Chase's secret lair deck.
I would also choose to scheme with Chase, anyone who bends that easily to peer pressure is the best choice.
GOD Chase is SO FUNNY!
I love them
Thank you for helping me discover them
I went through a range of emotions this game.
Atraxa doesn't have red in it. Thought we wouldn't notice, but we did.
*whistles innocently*
I love that ManaCurves made a Secret Lair deck because they're "curvey" LOL
Olivia with that little person strength
I am utterly shooketh now knowing Olivia is only 5’3”. Partially because I’m 5’6”. But mostly having seen her stand next to people like Kibler and she doesn’t look particularly short in comparison. My whole understanding of reality is challenged.

@@IAMYETTI25 which part of this is drawing your disgust?
This was a really fun game. Good work everyone!!!
I have Old Gnawbone in my Faldorn Dreadwolf Herald Deck, Still upgrading the deck though, but Old Gnawbone will be in it.

Where did Jim get those WONDERFUL sleeves? I love them.
I ordered them from UltraPro!
I always think I am
Watching Piper Perabo whenever I see Olivia play
for reals this time lolll!
can't wait to see this one
Wow Chase pwned them, GG great game
Yay! Story time with momma atraxa :D
Pretty boys and girls playing EDH, best way to spend an evening 😍
Dude's soyjack face in the thumbnail was on point.
You know what would be cool, if y’all host some fan games.
We did one episode with two patrons but haven't managed to organize more since the tiny human arrived. We'll do so again in the new year!
What a fun game. Seems a little more card draw would be ok 🙃
Loved this game!
You guys always have so much fun, and are hilarious. Nice win Chase!
I always run full art basics in decks that fetch alot. Makes it a bit quicker.
White border is easiest to find for me.
you need ways to blink the Saskia after KO'ing a player in one hit. so something like cloudshift or conjurer's closet or something that is fantastic. but since its secret lair tribal or whatever the deck is, I guess you are out of blink spells
Feels so weird to see people sponsored by the lgs I visit every weekend
Eilidh's lack of hand drawn creatures on her tokens was the worst part of this game 😢 💔
Great game everyone, did some say combat damage? Could be anyone game , my opponents are going off lol 😆
Glass chicken was kickin' chicken.
I like the video. I comment. I back the Patreon. Our dread bargain fulfilled.
I would have thought Olivia was at least 5’6”
She has Presence.

Tuned in for EDH and banter, got EDH and degradation kink..... well that's how life goes I guess.
Eilith btw if you go to a chapter and remove then a counter you get both chapters :)
More things to get track off yey!!!!
No they don't.
If counters are removed from a Saga, the appropriate chapter abilities will trigger again when the Saga receives lore counters. Removing lore counters won't cause a previous chapter ability to trigger.
You got to draw two cards off the saga at the end!

or did saga IIII with parasite and atraxa twice to get gisela
Thanks for the mana drain, games have to end sometimes? Stop hitting me and hit me harder 😆
another great video!!
I like Jim Fromthespikefeeders. Odd name though.
I mismatched all the swamps In my K'rrik deck while watching this
Olivia just remember, it's Jim's fault chase killed you. It's all because of that scheming symmetry
I use different land arts for my basic lands too!!!!
58:00 saying go mama
Are the decklista posted somewhere, I too am working on counter eating deck and want to see that Atraxa list
Check the description! Decks are always posted there!
I'm a bit disappointed that the land base in that "only secret lair" deck isn't secret lair only. But I understand that it just would be a bit too expensive.
Heya! It is :) All the cards are secret lairs in the deck even the basics
@@ManaCurves ah, cool, I just saw the swamp and thought "whelp, so without land base it seems"
@@johnny_crash Nah some of the basics in there are the bonus cards that were originally included in old SLs

Ive been playing the saga/remove counter strat for a while and have found recently that Zur Eternal is a much better commander for it
😃🖤💚 Great Game y'all!
The mono black deck hands down was doing good, Saskia just ugh troublesome.
Liliana went from 5 to 7 loyalty, I'm sure it was a mistake.
Jim... I love you... but you did this to yourself.
Wait, how did Atraxa get access to Blood Crypt again?
Over-tired deckbuilders 😅
4 really interesting decks
Why is there a Blood Crypt in Atraxa?
Because parents of tiny babies have brain farts in their sleep-deprived states sometimes
Thats a nice watery grave there xD and hows the fam.
