Badass story what happened to Magic Writing?
I love these types of videos. Some of your finest work!
Same, thoroughly enjoyed this one.
Wow you should do more magic history. I loved it
and this is why i will always believe a mtg animation need to be from this lore and not from the gatewatch
Brink of Madness.
The art shows an aged Academy Researcher, alluding to the fast time bubble that Kerrick was stuck inside of. The hint is the outfit.
*sees more than 20 minutes of lore*
Oh this is gonna be a juicy story, I can already tell. :3
Let's all reminisce about the good 'ole days when WotC could write a story...
Thanks, Purp!
Should cover the brothers war start to finish!
I had no idea that sleeper agents were eunuchs. Great video Mike.
Are you still a eunuch if you never had equipment to begin with?
Genuinely curious.
This man is a eunuch. This man is a eunuch. This man is dead.
But haven't Kerrick and Jhoira, like, done the thing?
@@GoodRogue xantcha and ratepe also apparently do the thing in the book planeswalker (i think it's that one) but it's also explicitly discussed several times that she's only a she because she feels that way, and there is no concept of gender for phyrexians otherwise? it's not clear how their physical relationship takes place lol
Wow, I love mtg lore, amazing video. Greetings from Costa Rica
super cool and interesting! The old storylines are soooo much more interesting than the latest ones. thanks for the vid!
Juicy vid my dude. Its content like this that brings me back to your channel again and again.
With seiben gone, someone throwing some good lore videos out there will fill a need. And by the way, i like that you're becoming more and more professional in production and in brand as the magic historian. Keep up the great work!
Wait what? What happened to seiben?
Sleeper agent is one of my favourite art. I even have a pianting of it. When I first saw it as a kid in 2000 it gave me this unsettling feeling and had nightmares for some time :)
"Brink of Madness" was the actual art for "Stroke of Genius". The art looked off topic for "Stroke of Genius", but they liked the art and made it into a new card.
Awesome job on this video as well as straight forward easy to understand presentation! As we all know, MTG is not only the best cardboard rectangle game ever made, but also has a very deep awesome story to make us love the game even more. ALL THE FLAVOR!!
Reading into the old lore of MTG is such a delightful journey. Learning about Urza, Mishra, Dominaria, Mirrodin, Alara, the Elder Dragons, the original Ravnica, and the first trip to Innistrad is amazing and each has such depth and character development...and now we have The Gatewatch...damn it Wizards what the hell happened to your writing and lore development. Seems like they just gave up.
While I 100% agree‚ Urza and co's lore has some stunning WTF moments throughout the whole story *cough* powerstones *cough*.
Honestly‚ the entire saga could use a facelift and I'd cream myself for a return to the Brother's War‚ Ice Age and Weatherlight.
@@papanurgle8393 I also love how they wrote Urza as more of an antihero than an actual hero. The dude made some fairly messed up choices and many innocents had to suffer the consequences of his actions. It made him far more "human" and relatable as a character. Not sure where they can take the Weatherlight story from here though. Maybe a seige on New Phyrexia (but without the Gatewatch, haha)? Throne of Eldraine is giving me some hope that Wizards is putting the Gatewatch on the backburner. I do wish they would come out with another in-depth book series. A WELL-WRITTEN ONE, lol. But, I may be asking too much there.
I've been waiting for this card!
Duuuude. That story is awesome! There’s so much about mtg lore I don’t know.
That jhoira card seems like a fun commander. Cast her early, then spam a bunch of high cost spells a few turns later.
This is by far the best time in magic. Really makes you wonder where we went off the path
The armor depicted on the card Blind Seer makes me think that Brink of Madness is depicting not Kerrick, but a wizard ("the Fools") finally witnessing what he has done within the time bubble.
Awesome video thank you! Your knowledge of Magic’s lore is downright amazing and greatly appreciated.
I can see K son going ham in mono black edh. All you need is aetherflux reservoir and any black draw engine plus Swiftfoot Boots to swing for lethal, or blood artist, or Bolas's citadel, not forgetting aetherflux Reservoir is it's own win con. So many evil play lines the card enables... Great video btw Purp
And guess what, you were right!!! 😂
"Idea, fellow Phyrexians. What if Sleepers but we made them not eunuchs. And hot."
"The Ineffable doth decree: promote this abomination!"
Wait... Did Teferi lowkey learn time manipulation magic to possibly age himself up to seem more attractive to Jhoira? This is definitely my head canon now! LOL.
when you notice the fly buzzing your head and keep talking anyways xDD love you man
He’s pretty cool. I can see him being played with dark rituals etc and life gain n drains.
So, I calculated it, and it a minute equals to a year, that makes it 525'600 years for 1 years, which means 5'256'000 years for 10 years. That's literally over 5 millions years!
So yeah, that fits for "unlimited time."
Dude thanks for making these lore videos. I can tell you put a lot of love into em and it's a ton to learn more about this great game.
really enjoy the lore videos, unequivocally yes please more! MORE !!! who wrote the original urza saga? I wish they came back for a set
They should redo the entire Urza storyline with a few custom sets.
Brother's war is beyond badass‚ and too often left in the dust.
Not to mention that it would bring the old lore to a new generation of players.
Make more of the old characters finally getting cards. Good stuff.
I feel like in story K'rrik would consider himself the son of Yawgmoth because of how much he did on his own. He may have felt he was the closest to Yawgmoth being able to create and manage his own mini world. Wild.
Such good story in the old days
I would love to see Vilis, Broker of Blood lore.
There is virtually no lore about him at this time my man
This video is a great example of how good the Magic story used to be. Much darker, much more complex, and much, much more complicated. The story aspect in MtG today pales in comparison to the story of the past in terms of overall quality, and that is a really sad thing. Great video. Looking forward to more.
K'rrik is my current favorite commander.
Wow, I thought I knew all the lore of this time period, but I just never really pieced the total significance of Kerrick together.
Man you did a really good job on this video, it was so very informative. Loved it!
I had only put the two together as soon as you mentioned sleeper agent. As always, I'm loving the reminder of the lore!
The whole Tolarian Academy arc was one of my favourite stories in MTG, and Kerrick was always my favourite part of it. Even named many RPG characters after him in those days. Equally surprised and excited to see him finally get the spotlight.
I never expected a card based on him but it was an excellent choice
And how it was released fits in perfectly, the phyrexian mana in a subset, throwing a new mechanic on an old character, so much depth. With all the crap that goes on on the internet between WotC and the customer base, cards like this are what keep an old school player like me buying new cards
Dude I love this lore
I've got K'rrik as my mono black phyrexian themed commander 😈😈
Looks like Brock Lesnar got the Legion of Doom costume.
And the Universal Title.
What an amazing story. Maybe I should read these
Slipping this bad boy into my mono black edh deck
Please cover yawgmoth's story!
Either the blind eternities and the mortals can't travel through it was after the Thran or the book made an oopsie. Because there is a planeswalker that Yawgmoth meets and she takes him through the blind eternities which is where he finds Phyrexia originally. Also is it ever discussed who actually made Phyrexia? It was an artificial plane made by some planeswalker who was massively powerful even back then.
The lore was less consistent then I guess. Also it was befoere the mending, so planeswalkers had all kinds of wacky powers.
It's implies that the dragon they found dead in the core was the creator
Walkers use to be able to do a bunch of crazy shit‚ including planeshifting others into the eternities and crafting pocket dimensions almost on a whim (though even then Walkers abilities were incredibly inconsistent).
@@papanurgle8393 True enough but wasn't didn't the mending and such happen after the battle between Phyrexia and Dominaria? So shouldn't Urza have had the same crazy powers as past Planeswalkers?
Very well done. I really like these lore videos. Keep it up.
This is the stuff! Another awesome example of an amazing lore history.
Krrik one of my favorites
Yeah! One of my favourite old school mtg characters.
Thanks
once again a very interesting and entertaining lore video. great one seriously
Nice to see this story again. It's been a long time.
Love this video man gonna share it to my following on IG. Just wanted to let you know that I know your gonna be cutting back on MTG due to the direction the company is going and all, but you make really great content and I always look forward to listening while at work. Maybe you could just only cover the lore and the parts of magic you like. I myself have been trying to get away from focusing on everything because there has been so much negative lately but there's also been so much good too. You gotta do what ever makes you happy though. Just hope to keep seeing great content thanks man.
K'rrik edh deck is amazing and competitive which im building a doomsday K'rrik deck and its awesome
i love mtg lore, it's such an interesting multiverse.
love your videos!
Great story. I didn't know that Jhoira had a Frankenstein's Monster that she was nursing.
Thank you for this AWESOME video. K'rrik is a beast.

Cool
K'rrik is the sound that my leg made when i slipped on ice when i was younger :DDdd.... ;_;
I believe that is ith. Like maze of ith, on brink of madness. I know it’s after the ice age.
Waiting for that Gix card
Love it Mike. Great job!
I love story time with Purps
Awesome video!
Please make more vids like this! These are great!
awesome thank you for this!
Good job, love this kind of videos.
Great video!
Never disappointed. Great video.
Question - what you've just summarized - is this a part of any book? I am interested in reading about K'rrik, Yawgmoth and New Phyrexia but you also had me curious about creation and purpose of Karn. What books should I read for that?
The Thran and Brother's War. Both are audiobooked on youtube.
Love the lore vid as always.
Loved this video! Do more lore please!
More Lore I Implore! Thanks!
I'd like to see more lore vids like this :)
Purp creates like the wind
Love the Lore it brings the story an cards to life
Mike this video was a 10!
You now have a new subscriber
Man that's OP.
Dude I love your videos
Hey, thanks brother
This should be great
Nice background info 🙂👍🏻
Love this
Awesome video
Glad you enjoyed it.
always good
great vid on this boss
Keep up the good work!
Check my twitter bro if you want to see you getting put in the tome of champions
Up the K’rrik without a paddle.
nice vid
He would combo well with griselbrand
Would love some eventide loweryn lore
new intros great! the old one is fun but the new one oozes professionalism 😅
When you spend 300 million years preparing to take over the world and end up getting yeeted by school guards
hahahahahah, nicely put
I think it's still pronounced "kerrick" as the apostrophe would denote a pause, being k-sound rrick. I always envisioned that he told Jhoira his name, and she heard "ke-rrick" with the softest e possible, and made it kerrick.
Ok, so if Kerrick doesn't have a mother, who's flesh was used to create him? I need to know these things.
More lore, more lore, more lore! Hearing about how stupid of a company Wizards of the Coast is is all fine and nice and informative and frustrating, but hearing about and learning about the deeper stories behind Magic is what makes the game have even more meaning to me. Thank you, Professor Purple.
that was cool
