They will come after us for anything now...we need to get off the media and get our butts in the streets or "Pinkertons" are going to rule the world. So how about instead of warning people about the "Pinkertons" we go and take care of em ourselves? 😉😉😉
I also want to mention a nice include for this deck, Oath of Mages can essentially be a 2 mana phyrexian arena with potential upside but probably more of a downside (gain multiple cards per turn versus take 3 dmg per turn.)
My guess is that the damage from Rakdos Charm is dealt as the spell resolves, all at once. Each creature is doing 1 damage, but they are all doing it simultaneously as part of the resolution of the spell.
Just wanna say, Mitch, that you've really made me appreciate a good budget deck. My current Tazri deck is insanely budget friendly, and it makes it way more fun. 🎉
I have a different approach: lots of pingers and burn + several Fling-like effects that care about power. Low mana curve and haste effects are extremely important for this to work. You want this deck to be explosive.
@@lostingreenbay It's literally a Prosper enabler on a flample body with a bonus of getting stronger when opponents lose life. The only reason to run this over Prosper is if you're an Ob Nixilis fan or if you want to.
I don't know how this card interacts with Mana Barbs because Ob Nixilis says "one or more opponents EACH lose 1 life". Does that mean that with multiple opponents it doesn't trigger because only one opponent loses the life?
@@whaleofdarkness Ob Nixilis will trigger whenever one or more opponent's lose exactly one life. The restriction is just that if a single source damages multiple opponents only only one trigger happens
@@whaleofdarkness You literally just typed out "ONE or more opponents" it will trigger off any ping to any one player, as well as sweeper pings, the way it is worded is just to cover all instances
Personally I'd be cautious about over-using trigger effects with this commander as you might impulse-draw way more cards than you would like, and then have your commander removed before you can benefit from a robust turn around the table
@@nbblerxc I meant more of not benefiting from a large commander with the +1/+1 counters and having too many cards exiled for you to play on your turn... the impulse draw is not a MAY ability after all
Well. Enchatmets what triple or double damage from your source is kinda nombo, cause it shut things like bombarding and tremors. Also, no Manabarbs? The absolute golden pig of this deck?
My first game trying out Ob I got him to a 43/42 before the homie had some removal. Since then I've added kediss emberclaw familiar. Can't wait to give Ob another few games
@@eagleflies9515 he awesome, though I took it apart to build a Judith Carnage Connoisseur deck. I played probably 12 games with Ob Nix and yeah he will probably get put back together because he is very fun
@@e6staffsargeify do you happen to have a list for ob anywhere still? :) I'd consider running judith in the 99 but my playgroup might actually murder me for putting her at the helm
@@eagleflies9515 no I do not, I've never really thought of uploading my deck lists. The best thing I did when my Ob was still together was 1/1 unblockable creatures. Opponents hate having to use removal on little guys but they're almost forced to if Ob is in play because then your value train starts.
Thoughts on pain reflection? It does dmg at the end step. Meaning if you do one dmg it deals another 1 dmg, however it doesn’t do just 1 dmg sense it’s technically adds up?
Is exiling your deck like drawing cards in the sense that if you can't draw a card you lose? If so, that is the only thing keeping this commander from going infinite with cards like All Will Be One.
Nope, exiling is different than drawing. So you could theoretically exile your entire deck, but wouldn’t lose the game until you were forced to actual draw a card. So in most cases, you should be able to drain the entire table before you are forced to draw. Unless an opponent has an instant or activated ability that would force you to draw while your deck is exiled
I think Wizards is trying to push All Will Be One, ie trying to make it a chase card. That's probably why they keep printing one card combos with it. I think they know exactly what they're doing 😂
Am i the only one that is reminded of ghyrson starn, with the whole 1 damage tribal being pushed I really want a Grixis deck for 1 damage pings XD Still prefer my Starn deck I think I like shooting stuff
It says 1 life EACH, that means that each opponent would have to lose exactly 1 life for that ability to trigger. From my research it is the only card like it.
Goblin Bombardment reminds me that Sling-gang Lieutenant exists in black. Another for the same effect that comes with two goblin tokens. Oh, hey guys, I just realized Urza's Armor has a use suddenly.
Beserkers onslaught isn't that usefull in this deck, in regards to the commander by the time your speeding up the pings to get him to 11 you'll probably be getting him to 21 too. Then Gratuitous violence is terrible in this deck you want it to be hitting for 1, and now your hitting for 2 getting none of the benefits your commander needs, terrible card in this deck, it's counter productive, same issue with City on Fire obviously. Not sure why you're not realizing this while thinking of suggestions for this commander, it's not just a be carefull situation, it's a simply take a different card that approaches it in a way that does work, or does a different equally benefiicial effect
Careful the Pinkertons don't come after you for this video.

Facts
Gratuitous Violence is a HUGE TRAP with THIS COMMANDER, your opponents will NEVER lose EXACTLY 1 life anymore, please don't do that.
Are you planning to build a full budget deck for this commander? Would love to see a sub $50 deck outside of the commander.
I also want to mention a nice include for this deck, Oath of Mages can essentially be a 2 mana phyrexian arena with potential upside but probably more of a downside (gain multiple cards per turn versus take 3 dmg per turn.)
actually. it probably wouldn't be that bad, since they can't keep targeting you. since the taget needs to have more life than the active player
My guess is that the damage from Rakdos Charm is dealt as the spell resolves, all at once. Each creature is doing 1 damage, but they are all doing it simultaneously as part of the resolution of the spell.
I would have guessed the opposite but thats is just a guess
Careful they might send the Pinkertons 😂🤣
For sure an include in my Prosper deck. Reckless fireweaver pings for 1 each time I sac a treasure, so ob will just provide more value.
Just a slight note, reckless fire weaver does damage when an artifact enters the battlefield
Just wanna say, Mitch, that you've really made me appreciate a good budget deck. My current Tazri deck is insanely budget friendly, and it makes it way more fun. 🎉
So where are we at with the rakdos charm interaction?? My understanding of the way the card reads tells me that Mitch is right.
I have a different approach: lots of pingers and burn + several Fling-like effects that care about power.
Low mana curve and haste effects are extremely important for this to work. You want this deck to be explosive.
I feel like this goes into the 99 of Prosper.
Yeah no reason to run him as commander over prosper.
@@lostingreenbay It's literally a Prosper enabler on a flample body with a bonus of getting stronger when opponents lose life.
The only reason to run this over Prosper is if you're an Ob Nixilis fan or if you want to.
@@lostingreenbaydisagree they play completely different as commanders
Prosper with Reckless fireweaver would go off?🤔
I'm actually thinking of the opposite, Proper is fun but this looks more interesting and fun to build around.
Mana Barbs would be great in this deck!
Hold up some pinkie-something-or-other is at the door...
I don't know how this card interacts with Mana Barbs because Ob Nixilis says "one or more opponents EACH lose 1 life". Does that mean that with multiple opponents it doesn't trigger because only one opponent loses the life?

Looking at Pestilence and Pyrohemia
Pestilence and Pyrohemia, deals one damage to every creature and player for one black or red respectively.
All the double and triple damage effects work AGAINST this commander 😅
Personally I'd be cautious about over-using trigger effects with this commander as you might impulse-draw way more cards than you would like, and then have your commander removed before you can benefit from a robust turn around the table
You can still play the cards if ob is dead, same with prosper.
@@nbblerxc I meant more of not benefiting from a large commander with the +1/+1 counters and having too many cards exiled for you to play on your turn... the impulse draw is not a MAY ability after all
Did you forget mana barbs? That would be exactly 1 life for each land your opponent tap right?
Well. Enchatmets what triple or double damage from your source is kinda nombo, cause it shut things like bombarding and tremors. Also, no Manabarbs? The absolute golden pig of this deck?
a few other *banger* cards you didn't mention: Manabarbs/Burning Earth, Kyren Negotiations, Pestilence
I'm not happy Capenna was like a week ago and there's already a new ob cheatilus.

Triggers are not optional, if you are pinging individually you might exile your whole deck.
That'd suck against a mill deck indeed 4:20
No pestilence / pyrohemia mention?
I would rather put Ob in the 99 of Prosper tome bound
Last Laugh enchantment could just win you the game in the right situations. Like a massacre girl situation.

I don't think Rakdos Charm works like that. Even if the sources are the creatures, the life is lost all at once.

Blood reckoning and hissing miasma are essentially two more copies of revenge of ravens, for consistency sakes.
The Brokers finally arrested Ob Nixilis for Halo tax evasion
Super interesting commander like kelermorph but card advantage instead.

I like shooting stuff
I wonder if Killing Wave machine gun triggers if you make X=1 ?
It says 1 life EACH, that means that each opponent would have to lose exactly 1 life for that ability to trigger. From my research it is the only card like it.
It specifies one or more so it triggers off single pings
Ob will be one lol.
indeed haha!
@@TheCommandersQuarters Definitely building him and will use these cards. Thanks for the help!
What about Phyroemia and Pestilence? This is an amazing superpowerful and fun Commander
How does the enchantment last laugh work with Ob
Ok so according to mtg salvation rakdos charm does have seperate sources of damage
We finally broke Pyroclasm.
Kinda a counter to pain lands
Goblin Bombardment reminds me that Sling-gang Lieutenant exists in black. Another for the same effect that comes with two goblin tokens.
Oh, hey guys, I just realized Urza's Armor has a use suddenly.
Got a feeling Arena is going to nerf the new Ob and/or All will be One
Very cool commander
Nekusar players getting ready to pop off and see if they can win before burning through their whole decks
Rakdos Charm sadly doesn't work
Passionate Archaeologist would be decent tech here.
When its says "play that card" is that the same as saying cast for free?
No, it would always say "without paying it's mana cost" if it were free. When "play" is used, that will cover lands as well as spells.
Don’t forget Gix.
Wait is this another creature that infinite combos with all will be one
Do you raise your budget limit with inflation?
A plink plink or death by a thousand cuts deck, just petty lol.
I guess ill just be pointing my niv triggers elsewhere lol
I realy want more cards about forcing players to tutor, so i can use ob nix unshackled
As if prosper needed more love lol
