Crim's French family telling him it was better speaking with you before you started trying to learn French is one of the most French things I've heard.
Oops, I realized in g2 I accidentally assumed my forest was tapped so I untapped it when it was actually exiled 🤣 damn green decks playing so many lands had me confused Also, thank you based MIKU 🙏
I have a Miku, the Renowned deck, and everyone hates how good it is. Any time I play it, it quickly becomes Archenemy without the buffs. Thank you based Miku!
Crim kept saying that Tomer was one bad day away from being a chaos player but he never said that he was one bad day away from being a mono green player
I know Crim face rolled everyone game one, but is game 2 not a perfect example of the Richard strategy of laying low while the dinosaurs get decimated by a meteor?
I think the editing style that you all have landed on is top tier. The quick shots of each card that is played is super helpful. The editor's notes for the complex stuff/things that went wrong. I think this is my favorite channel to watch because it provides just enough information for me to have a grasp over what is happening without dragging the game along too needlessly. I thought I would hate the transition from Magic Online, but I've been quite pleased at the change thus far.
I love how well rounded and logical Crim's philosophy is when it comes to commander game play and how toxic his actual game play is, playing the most oppressive cards and getting the biggest kick out of it each and every time.
Richard keeps complaining about Magic in 2024 being OP and too strong but most of the cards that allowed for the degenerate gameplay and ramping were very old cards that are more than 10-15 years old. Azusa, Lost but Seeking is a 20 year old card. Burgeoning is a 27 year old card. Ravnica Bounce Lands are 20 years old. Original Ulamog and Kozelik are 15 years old. Tempt with Discovery is 11 years old. Eye of Ugin is 16 years old.
Can I take a moment to advocate for Tamiyo, Collector of Tales? With all of the Eldrazi packing Annihilator triggers floating around right now, it is incredibly tilting to people when they find out those triggers simply don't work with her on the field. It also prevents Windfalls, which I found oddly useful.
@@jonasl9068 I was playing Go-Shintai where this came up, recently. I had Tamiyo, Leyline of Sanctity, Sterling Grove, and Privileged Position (pretty standard stuff). The new Ulamog hit the field from from the Ulalek player. Ability fizzled. They attacked and the Annihilator trigger failed because of Tamiyo. They died because of Sanctum of Stone Fangs and 40 Shrines that kept appearing out of nowhere. A niche case? Sure. But when you're playing in a meta full of these types of decks. It doesn't hurt to play things to prevent the "unfun" mechanics from working.
I'm going to predict either a combo win with Necrobloom with something like an Altar or Cultivator Colossus or Phil dumps his deck on the field unprotected and gets blown out first. Edit: I was wrong. Thank you based Miku.
Another game with must-answer threats that survive board wipes. I wonder if there are cards in white and blue that could, for 1 or 2 mana, remove those threats quickly and efficiently. This is the second time in 3 weeks that this has happened.
@@intoarainstorm I mean the second game was decided by Richard's voltron commander so if anything its the opposite and if Phil had StP or PoE he would have won. Also if anything the first game was lost becuase Richard had seemingly no way to get through a single reach creature from Crim otherwise I'm pretty sure he would have won that game as well since everyone ignored him both games because "oh no poor izzet player with only 3 lands on turn 5" lmao.
I thought Crim's snap accepting of the offer was not just him leaning into teaching the gang a lesson about green ramp but also a bit of jab at Seth for targeting him with removal partly based on the prior game. Or maybe a way to distract attention onto Phil.
After finally seeing this infamous game I get why Seth was complaining about Ukamog the Defiler on Twitter lmao. Crim absolutely did defile him with it
If I understand the problem correctly single target spells in commander basically have opponent draws 2 cards and untaps 2-4 lands if you factor in that each opponent got value for free and tempo for free. If removal spells were formatted like this in other formats, no one would play them either.
@@shrouded8797 You are not wrong, but it's a similar problem to Rhystic Study, except instead of a gameplay dilemma it's a deck building one. If everyone is being responsible and running spot removal there will always be incentive to 'cheat' and cut them, knowing you will have a mutual threat with your two other opponents in situations where spot removal is necessary. Like Tomer dislikes about Rhystic Study, this forces either the rest of the table to fall behind as they do the 'correct thing', or follow suit and we get the meta we currently have of these extremely swingtastic games.
The ol’ “omg they don’t play removal” meme is pretty suspect to pull out when there were this many board wipes flying around. Richard’s sequence near the end of game 2, for example.
@@covfefe5842spot removal is so cool though, just look at the commander game with crim, prof, Charlie and voxy. crim used his removal as a bargaining chip by offering not to remove X but not getting attacked in return. you can get so much more value out of a cheap removal spell, I just think that's very commander likr. while with wraths by the time you can play them, the other guy might have 5 more lands than everyone else on the board and there is no bargaining.
As an Izzet spell slinger player, the red rituals are auto include. Jeska's Will, Mana Geyser, Rousing refrain as well as "mana neutral" cards like Frantic Search, Snap, Turnabout with Birgi or Stormkiln can produce tons of mana.
Richard's love of Dowsing Dagger has long had me waiting for when he'd discover Snap and friends. Snapping and untapping your land that taps for 3 is uh. Really really strong.
@@Kestral287 Imagine untapping his bounce lands or his Lost Vale? And with all of the powercrept "Goblin Electromancers", they just become better. Izzet Artifact does not have mana issues either because of there's just tons of new "copy artifact" cards. Three Steps Ahead and Quantum Misalignment are my new favourite blue cards released this year mainly for copying mana producers. 2 Stormkilns is usually GG on turn 4/5
@@zweis Yes, you're absolutely correct! I have a Simic big creatures and an Izzet spellslinger. Land and Artifact ramps are very visible. Since other players can't see your rituals and the cost reducers are inconspicuous, other players leave you alone because they can't see your available mana. From my experience, people are only cautious of Birgi, Stormkiln, and Urabrask.
"I hate magic in 2024" Richard says as he gets wrecked by Eldrazi from 2009 that have been ramped out by Stronghold all-star Burgeoning and OG Kamigawa staple Azusa. It's definitely the 2024 cards that are the problem
I havent watched a commander xlash in a while and i sit down and the dirst video in my playlist is CRIM ON GREEN??? I legit did the cartoon eye rub thing and looked again lol
hearing Richard call Crims' 1000$ deck a "casual power level 7"-deck really shows the salt about green ramp There were no deck restrictions so where are the fast mana rocks like Sol-Ring or Mana Crypt? Also, another week of everyone complaining about how if you play a lot of green ramp cards, you get a lot of lands on the battlefield but nobody plays mass land destruction
I know I am late to this posting as I'm still playing catchup on Commander Clash. However at the time 55:40 Seth/SaffronOlive says something that I cannot understand completely yet, but I hear "This sounds a lot like my deck" and I think it would be an interesting Clash episode for them to play an old decklist that one of the other ones made and they guess part way through who is playing the deck that they made, I know its a 1/3 chance of guessing right but also they play so many decks it might bamboozle a few.
Great episode as always. Really like it that you guys play with a webcam instead of MTGO these days. I had an idea for another clash: Play commander as if it were 2012. Would be great to see you guys pilot older decks.
I actually wonder if Nikya of the Old Ways is secretly the best Eldrazi Commander out there, purely because of the ungodly mana advantage, and because compared to colourless I'd argue Gruul has better creatures than it has non-creatures that you'll be losing access to, and you can still run any fast mana you feel the need to since you can play it before Nikya is out, or to help get Nikya back out. Unfortunately I already have a Gruul Eldrazi list, so I think it's incredibly unlikely I'd build an additional (I did build 2 Dimir decks, but they play quite differently, and I'm working on a 2nd Esper cEDH list, again the two play very differently).
Never been the biggest Crim fan but I've done a 180°. My gf loves Miku and has shown me it and it's actually fun and enjoyable. Love the subculture and love mono green.
Eldrazi have always just been code for big green timmy creatures and I've hated it ever since day 1 of prerelease rise of the eldrazi. It's so annoying, it's always been this way. And then the other titans came along and suddenly they were green timmy creatures AND reanimator targets.
Richard is not the most coherent when talking Commander but the decks he made are often surprising, Dowsing Device, Dowsing Dagger+Copy Land, and Sunken Palace..great choices, combining (in a lucky way) perfectly
On this week of "Punt or Bluff?" the gloves are off (again?). Will this episode be taken down by Piapro or will Seth finally answer Vincent's question about Azlask? Tune-in to find out!
I do think that, at the power level they're playing, you probably do have to be playing a combo/storm style deck if you're not playing green. That or artifacts and ramp just as hard.
At this point I really don't know what to do except banning green entirely. :D In all my non-green decks, I ponder adding another colour, bcs it is just better with green, even with the additional colour. Then you play just the same 10-15 green staples in any deck and hate it. But not playing green also hurts at this point. I'm with crim. Green is a problem.
No deck restrictions and Crim brings Mono Green Ramp? This is definitely the harbinger of something

Richard keeps complaining about Magic in 2024 being OP and too strong but most of the cards that allowed for the degenerate gameplay and ramping were very old cards that are more than 10-15 years old.
Azusa, Lost but Seeking is a 20 year old card.
Burgeoning is a 27 year old card.
Ravnica Bounce Lands are 20 years old.
Original Ulamog and Kozelik are 15 years old.
Tempt with Discovery is 11 years old.
Eye of Ugin is 16 years old.
God I’m so old
Part of his complaint is that people used to play weaker decks in general, so those old "OP" cards didn't see as much play as today
Also those old cards didn't enable strategies that were as backbreaking as their contemporary counterparts.
Can I take a moment to advocate for Tamiyo, Collector of Tales? With all of the Eldrazi packing Annihilator triggers floating around right now, it is incredibly tilting to people when they find out those triggers simply don't work with her on the field.

Such a shame that no such card exists, maybe in the future such technology will exist.
I can't think of anything less than 3 mana at instant speed, Wizards should really consider designing a card like that.

At this point I really don't know what to do except banning green entirely. :D
In all my non-green decks, I ponder adding another colour, bcs it is just better with green, even with the additional colour.
Then you play just the same 10-15 green staples in any deck and hate it.
But not playing green also hurts at this point.
