This story was probably the hardest to follow since there are so many moving pieces. Or maybe I'm just exhausted after binge-watching this lore series. Very entertaining stuff, looking forward to the next one.
Please keep this series alive. I like it. Even though I don't understand everything you say in the video due to the fact that I'm not native speaker I found that you are charming . Your personal charisma is what makes this special.
I'm not surprised at how Ertai is as a character, looking from the flavor text of his second version was all I needed to know. Keep the lore videos coming and great job, Wedge and crew!
Really glad I found your channel so I don't have to read all of this lore myself. I've recently gotten back into playing Magic: the Gathering and I find the lore to be intriguing, albeit dense. I'll be eagerly awaiting the next installment.
Please keep this series going Wedge! I am so glad someone will talk about the lore instead of just the decks and such to build. You're the greatest! xD
Been playing magic for less than a year and these videos have boosted my interest and knowledge of characters and events. Thanks so much this has made Magic that much more fun.
Loving this series. My favorite part is how you add in the cards that go along with the story. So amazing of a set up. I hope you are still making videos. I'm going thru everything from the start.
Yay! Keep this coming Wedge. The Rath portion of the lore is one of my favorite parts, SLIVERS FOR DAYS YO. But it does make me miss all the Weatherlight folks. Squee was just the nabob-iest. :'(
To be honest I can find story summary everywhere online. But I prefer listening to you despite the fact I don't understand everything you said. Keep the good work
This channel is effin awesome. I had been searching for weeks to find good lore videos before I found TMS. Your videos help me get through long and boring work days. Thanks.
I really love what you do man. These stories are great. In future movies you make about storylines it wouldn't hurt to throw in reminders of the names are. Quick reminders like that could help listeners follow the story a little easier. Also it is always interesting to know what stories line up with what block of cards.
I can't wait to hear more of this story since this is where I started playing and what drew me in the most in the beginning, is the story. Now I am having trouble trying to find these books at a good price. So keep this up wedge thanks!
The more I look back at the Weatherlight crew, the more it feels like R&D's D&D campaign. I've read that the original legendary creatures from Legends were the creators' D&D characters.
You're doing such a great job of these. I just recently got back into MTG and this an awesome summary of the story that I can listen to while I work. Thank you!
Awesome series! Any chance you'll do All of the MTG novels? The older Ice Age books are Really hard to find and they're wicked expensive if you do. I'd love to know how that wraps up.
Wedge! You have been doing an AMAZING JOB with all these videos! Honestly I Literally only truly believe your spoiler updates! Keep making the great videos and thanks for sharing with the big ole MTG Family :)
I really can't wait to hear these as they come out. Then go back and watch them in one continuous playlist. I'm not a great player but I really enjoy the lore of magic as opposed to the other card games I.E. Yu-gi-oh or Vanguard.
FINALLY. Thank you. Every day I check my subscriptions to see if a new lore video was out. Are these going to be happening more frequently now like every other week or is It a monthly thing? Regardless you gave me a present when I woke up this morning.
I have never read a single book about magic but i am loving the way you tell the story with the cards and pictures in the background, it makes it easier for me to understand and keep what you're saying. ps. started playing after born of the gods came out
He'll yea. I remember this set from when I was 12 and first started playing. I even had some of these legends including starke. And he was so badass. Love this series. Keep going pls
How I wish this becomes a TV series! At least start with Weatherlight, Tempest, Stronghold & Exodus! Whoa.... Game of Thrones vibes! (Great job Mana Source! )
I played maybe a decade ago in college at the insistence of a friend. He gave maybe 200~ish cards and we had a good time. I am just now getting back into it with my son since he likes this type of stuff, and was wondering if you could link places to buy the original books that all this is in. Great series. Thanks for posting it. :)
Lore is probably the series I look forward to seeing the most out of any others, although Khans spoilers might surpass this by a bit cause ya knows its Khans.
Excellent summary! My imagination immediately leads me to believe this type of thing takes multiple revisions and sessions of recording. In my mind, this means you record this over many days. If that's true, does that mean you leave that same shirt out for as many days as is needed to record? Or do you actually get this all done in one sitting!
this was great, but god im gonna like need to rewatch the video 2 or 3 more times to fully understand the story and how its going so fast, so many things happening!
For those who don't get why Wedge did the "mind blown" thing when Vuel becomes Volrath, I'll explain. For a long time, Volrath was Magic's "bad guy" and a series mascot. Even if you didn't read the books, Volrath was everywhere. Despite not being anywhere near as relevant as Yawgmoth, Volrath was the more iconic at the time. It's kind of how Bolas is these days. On a bit of a tangent, Lim Duul was also the "villain mascot" of magic during ice age even though leshrac was the actual big bad.
Come on wedge buddy I'm jonesing for more historical tours in lore with the host with the most (kick ass shirts ever). We (ERRRRR I) need this like edh pimps need those foils and foreign life sustaining cards to fuel their decks lol or rather like fat kids need cake (i mean seriously my lore blood sugar deathly low here Wedge buddy throw me that which makes my lore blood sugar better!!!) Cheers my friend and I'm hoping you're feeling better from that sickness that tried to keep you down and out last week. TheManaSource
Loving this series Wedge, I do suggest one thing, probably because it is one of my pet peeves, but whoever is editing these videos needs to work on their green screen techniques. There is a considerable amount of screen burn showing on Wedge, which is kind of distracting. Awesome series nonetheless!
This story was probably the hardest to follow since there are so many moving pieces. Or maybe I'm just exhausted after binge-watching this lore series. Very entertaining stuff, looking forward to the next one.
Please keep this series alive. I like it. Even though I don't understand everything you say in the video due to the fact that I'm not native speaker I found that you are charming . Your personal charisma is what makes this special.
The lore is what had me hooked on Magic so many years ago! Thank you, Wedge and the rest of TMS, for these videos. Keep it up!
I'm not surprised at how Ertai is as a character, looking from the flavor text of his second version was all I needed to know. Keep the lore videos coming and great job, Wedge and crew!
Really glad I found your channel so I don't have to read all of this lore myself. I've recently gotten back into playing Magic: the Gathering and I find the lore to be intriguing, albeit dense. I'll be eagerly awaiting the next installment.

I'm so glad to see another one of these up! These are probably my favorite videos that you do.
More Lore for the win!!! Also, this whole story is awesome. I also, love how the Planar Chaos set changed the story.
Dude...oh man...it's so deep! lol
Yay! Keep this coming Wedge. The Rath portion of the lore is one of my favorite parts, SLIVERS FOR DAYS YO. But it does make me miss all the Weatherlight folks. Squee was just the nabob-iest. :'(
/applause haha
The Rath Cycle is great, but I can't wait for the Invasion Cycle. That was one of my favorite trilogies of books.
I'm loving re-learning about the lore of the game I played my way through middle and high school with! :D
To be honest I can find story summary everywhere online. But I prefer listening to you despite the fact I don't understand everything you said. Keep the good work
The block with Tempest in it was where I started Magic.
I'm excited to hear about their stories!
This channel is effin awesome. I had been searching for weeks to find good lore videos before I found TMS. Your videos help me get through long and boring work days. Thanks.
I'm so glad you're doing this series! I've been playing for 10 years and I really didn't know about any of this lol.
I'm eagerly await the rest!
I really love what you do man. These stories are great. In future movies you make about storylines it wouldn't hurt to throw in reminders of the names are.

You can find the books for a decent price on Amazon or Half.com
By far my favorite series of videos.
I just want to note how happy I am to be part of the Magic community! Keep it up everyone.
Finally a new episode thanks ManaSource
The more I look back at the Weatherlight crew, the more it feels like R&D's D&D campaign. I've read that the original legendary creatures from Legends were the creators' D&D characters.
yaaaaaay i was losing hope on this series for a little while there! cant wait for more!!!
watching this again and loving it!!!! we need more, Wedge!!!!
You're doing such a great job of these. I just recently got back into MTG and this an awesome summary of the story that I can listen to while I work. Thank you!
Thank you for watching! :)
"It was probably a lousy spell in the first place" - Ertai. Best counterspell ever imo!!
Dude! Thanks! I love these videos, almost couldn't wait for this one...
Awesome series! Any chance you'll do All of the MTG novels? The older Ice Age books are Really hard to find and they're wicked expensive if you do. I'd love to know how that wraps up.
Keep doing it and I'll keep watching it
Wedge! You have been doing an AMAZING JOB with all these videos! Honestly I Literally only truly believe your spoiler updates! Keep making the great videos and thanks for sharing with the big ole MTG Family :)
I really can't wait to hear these as they come out. Then go back and watch them in one continuous playlist. I'm not a great player but I really enjoy the lore of magic as opposed to the other card games I.E. Yu-gi-oh or Vanguard.
We're going to try and bring them out more frequently for this very reason. We like the idea of people marathoning them :)
I just recently started playing mtg and I am realllllly enjoying this series when I get to the pro tour I'll be sure to thank you
FINALLY. Thank you. Every day I check my subscriptions to see if a new lore video was out. Are these going to be happening more frequently now like every other week or is It a monthly thing? Regardless you gave me a present when I woke up this morning.
Yes! July was a crazy time. They'll be out more consistently :)
TheManaSource Yay you make me happy dude.
Really like these lore vids !! keep them coming as i missed these only playing for a year so far...
I love this series, hope it continues! :D
You do a great job as always!
So I truly understood about 5% of what you said, but was 100% entertained by it. Thanks Wedge & Crew!
I'll try to be less confusing next time xD
I love everything your doing .I'm new to magic and I'm eating it all up .thanks
FINALLY! I've been waiting for this seemingly like forever!
Also, Eretei the worse person ever? And he's blue...coincidence? I think not!

If that's true, does that mean you leave that same shirt out for as many days as is needed to record?
Or do you actually get this all done in one sitting!
We shoot it all at once, but getting there is what takes time xD
Keep them coming I love them

Garrett Grimmett Kamigawa lore is pretty awesome. the lead character is like a super ninja
Yeah it was the best lore in my opinion
yes! love these videos best series!
this was great, but god im gonna like need to rewatch the video 2 or 3 more times to fully understand the story and how its going so fast, so many things happening!
The story has a TON of stuff going on. Cutting it down to what we did was difficult. xD
TheManaSource and you did a great job at it! thanks for the videos.
more lore always please
Can't wait for the next lore video 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Great story so far :)
For those who don't get why Wedge did the "mind blown" thing when Vuel becomes Volrath, I'll explain.

Near infinite knowledge? Only one thing to do: Trivia.
I am going to love hearing the story of the best tribal creatures in da game next timeXD
My fix is finally here. Thank you.
yaaaaaaaaaaaaay! more lore! i'm learndink!
This was great!!
Love this book. ❤️
what do i think you want to know, well here it is.
1. More lore if you can
2. did i mention more lore
3.great series
4. more lore
that is all.
Come on wedge buddy I'm jonesing for more historical tours in lore with the host with the most (kick ass shirts ever). We (ERRRRR I) need this like edh pimps need those foils and foreign life sustaining cards to fuel their decks lol or rather like fat kids need cake (i mean seriously my lore blood sugar deathly low here Wedge buddy throw me that which makes my lore blood sugar better!!!)
Cheers my friend and I'm hoping you're feeling better from that sickness that tried to keep you down and out last week.
TheManaSource
these are sweet. keep it up
yay!!!! if you make another one in a week(maybe a month is more reasonable but i can dream!!) you will make me very happy =]
im pretty new to the channel but this is a great series!
Thanks!
I listen to these at work. Not getting them to me fast enough haha
But but... Rofellos was so nice and happy-go-lucky! I mean... look at him.... WHO COULD DO SUCH A THING!? *pouts*
:'( I know man!
Great series :) moar lore please!
Also maybe start newer novels too?
Like shards of alara or zendikar!
Awesome
It's fun to learn about all the old lore (I started magic when Theros came out)but it's really depressing like a MTG version of the Deathly Hallows.
There really is SOOO much death.
yea more lore is great keep it up dood
Loving this series Wedge, I do suggest one thing, probably because it is one of my pet peeves, but whoever is editing these videos needs to work on their green screen techniques. There is a considerable amount of screen burn showing on Wedge, which is kind of distracting. Awesome series nonetheless!
When will you do sliver lore?
