It sounds impressive, but it's really not. A plane is two dimensions of space (with length and width, lacking depth). To 'fathom' something is to measure its depth. You can't measure the depth of something that has no depth. Therefore, *any* plane is a plane you cannot fathom. So really, he's just saying "I understand the bookcase on some planes." =)
@@MetaKaios I need the "UM, ACKCHUALLEY" meme for your reply. Though really, you've selected the definitions to suit your purpose.

Honestly a deck with cards all that expensive would probably be equally as bad, a lot of great cards are not that expensive, you'd have a bunch of like, random cool stuff like tutors, mana drains, etc... and nothing else lol, it would be funny.
Honestly I loved the Station Agent/various movies tangent partway in. I feel like moments like that are why I like Shuffle Up and Play so much. Other MTG gameplay shows would have probably cut all of that since it had nothing to do with the game
I was so left in stitches by this moment that I had to pause to breathe, I'm so glad they left it in. It reminds me of the banter of my play group immensely and I would love to see this table more often
This episode is fantastic! Between the "crappy" decks and the "You haven't seen X" bit, it felt just like a game of commander at home around the kitchen table with friends. Also the editing is top notch!
I love the *insert name of MTG character* method of censoring Prof's cusswords. Also appreciate the detail of using "Elesh Norn" to censor "mother..."😂
22:47 not far off!! Smörgås is swedish for a sandwich, usually pretty loaded with nice toppings and cold cuts. Bord is table. So it's like a table filled with delicious sandwiches.
As a swedish man, I aprove of this message.... and Smörgås consists of the two word "Smör" which is "Butter", and "gås" which "goose". So it would be "Buttergoose".
@@dannil9878 When you churn butter, in the beginning of the process, you get these clumps that float to the top. And then they kind of float around, and look like geese according to old swedes. So, "smörgås" actually means "small piece of butter". You'd usually eat such a "smörgås" upon a piece of bread, and eventually "smörgås med bröd" was just shortened to "smörgås" for brevity. We do enjoy brevity here in Sweden.
I don't know! Why the sand in "sandwich"? (Yeah, it was named after som lord and to be honest I don't know why it is known as Smörgås and that has plagued me all my swedish life)
The reason shuffle up and play is so much better that the rest of mtg shows is that they actually include the conversations rather than just rushing through the game. Really makes it feel like a game between friends
we need to see ALL of these guests again!! I love Arin and re-watch the episodes he is in very frequently, and Taalia and Spencer were immaculate guests!! Both skilled at Magic, both very funny and charismatic. sufficient to say i hope to see them all, if not as a group together, individually back on the channel many many more times!!!!!!
Another video where you get to see the editor's personality. I love it. The friggin coraline reference and the fact that there was no animation so he just explain that in subtitle text like its adult swim or something.
I just started following yall. I love magic. Introduced my kids to the game. Just really got back into it really big. Keep playing. Love the jackets Prof.
WAIT *slams into comments 9 days later* THERE WAS A "The Station Agent" reference? I unironically LOVE that movie! This might be the best Shuffle Up and Play episode ever
This is genuinely one of the funniest MTG games I’ve ever gotten to watch. It matches the feeling of a casual LGS pod perfectly!! The way you all bounce off of each other and play into each others jokes is amazing
The preview for this video in the endcard of another video made me watch The Station Agent. I ment to when it came out and forgot about it before i got to it. Excellent movie. Would highly recommend.
10:55 did she get to put the counter on the card (Llanowar Visionary)? As the "Long list of Ents" says "next creature of that type". This was the first cast of that type...
SPENCER!!! ❤❤❤❤❤ One of my favorite parts of listening back through Harmontown, was noticing how many mtg references he put into the D&D. I hadn't been playing for years during the initial run, but picked it back up around the time it was ending. I have been weirdly curious to seeing Spencer playing Magic.
When he said to Spencer that, among certain circles, he is the most known, he was talking about me. I spent SO MANY hours with Harmontown, Harmonquest, and That Happens
The thing is, Suspicious Bookcase isn't really a bookcase. It's a door disguised as a wall with a bookcase. So it's just as much a wall as Crashing Drawbridge, if not more so.
I was very surprised to see Spencer as someone who isnt familiar with Harmonquest. I saw the preview and was like, "Is that [REDACTED]'s brother from [REDACTED]? What an odd get from the Proff."
The professor is the perfect blend of charisma and cringe and it's why I can't stop watching. Hell, I even elected to watch this whole episode instead of LOKI. Does it mean the professor has more charisma than Tom Hiddleson, or is it just me who's f*ked up ? Anyways, it soothes my soul.

I love how Arin plays magic exactly how he plays everything else
Just bumbling through everything going "wouldn't it be funny if"
Oh my God, this bit...beautiful comment.
He shoulda played with the Unfinity cards. Him putting stickers on everything would have made Prof mad, that'd be pretty funny
@@TheSeptethonestly, I'd love an Un-set episode of Shup where each player focuses on a different set in their deck
The patented “Arin Hanson Path of Most Resistance”
I'd love to see a game with Arin and Spice8Rack at the same time just so they can have matching breakdowns :P
Didn't realize how much I wanted that until I read your comment.
If it was an Un- only Commander, that would be a hilarious battle between them.
Spice, Arin, And Rhystic would be my fave line up.
This is probably the best representation of a usual commander night I've seen recorded.
Somehow Arin Hanson's $50 commander deck has better synergy than all my commander decks combined
Editor put in some serious work this episode and im loving it.
seriously had me crackin!
If you're feeling warm in your loins I'm sorry to tell you that isn't comradery, that's crabs.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 I fing LOVE YOU VOXY

The fact that the prof thinks arin can sit still is hilarious

This is how magic should always be played. A lot of laughter and noone taking themselves too seriously. It's so hard to find that kind of group.
😂 Sweaty players are in every space, but when you can just enjoy the game it's great.
😂 Shame Prof gets mobbed everytime at his own table.
Spencer Crittenden!?! Amazing get! I haven't seen him since HarmonQuest
God I miss that series so much
Me too! Spencer was my favorite part of Harmon quest.
If you saw commander at home he was on that with Olivia and kibler
He does a podcast now. It’s pretty good. He also did a pod on game mastering rpgs that was amazing. Cannot recommend Master Manual highly enough.

"Is Tarmogoyf in here?" Makes me want to see the opposite of this episode, where every card has to be $50 or more
4 player legacy lol
Buddy I KNOW It makes no sense, since Future Sight was Just a couple of years ago, (..right?) But the goyf Is now a 10$ card

Drinking game: take a shot everytime Arin slams his hand of cards on the table
Are you trying to kill people?
I tried this and now im dead thx
I don't want to die, so no thank you.
Arin is just Spencer from iCarly IRL, both physically and mentally lol
Nah man, if arin is anyone from that show, he's carly
@@_underscore_9271He’s all of them
Prof's outfit is so FIRE. Dang.
You know I got hella cool threads.
13:11 mfw Arin forgets what his commander does on the very first trigger
I don't think I've seen the previous "best Arin Hanson episode", but I'm pretty sure this is the new best.
The spamming of Your Go by prof in the cutscene was amazing.
Having Spencer and Arin on the same episode is genius. They work off each other so smoothly and hilariously
Prof and Arin have a "tenured prof hazing new assistant prof" energy
This is the best commander content I’ve found. It feels the least “put on” and genuinely feels like just some friends playing magic
Arin is always really fun. Taalia and Spencer were a real treat! Great episode and honestly these cheap decks are WAY more fun than the crazy ones.
I’ve always wanted to see a Yargle deck because I thought they were just a silly lil guy.
This video has made me so happy
I LOVE seeing Arin in non-Gamegrumps related things. Idk, it's just very fun. Always glad to see him on here!
"coughing schemer" was fking comedy gold. LOL
Arin coughing during an imitation/bit... Totally intentional
38:20 I think that bookcase/bookshelf dispute reset the timeline, so it's pretty logical for Talia to forget she attacked Arin for 22...
Idk why, but the: "What? Do you live in a glen?!" Killed me.
Honestly one of the funnier episodes yet, I want to see them all together again.
The reason shuffle up and play is so much better that the rest of mtg shows is that they actually include the conversations rather than just rushing through the game. Really makes it feel like a game between friends
*effing* SPENCER CRITTENDEN?!? LET'S GOOOOOO
Thank you to the editors for the fantastic animations. Wizards, animate Ognis you cowards!
I really enjoy anytime Arin is on the show, he brings such an energy to tables that I can’t get enough of
I feel the opposite, I find him so annoying. He's like a 9-yr-old who's constantly trying to make everyone laugh.

remember when arin killed the rec sage with a stolen commander????
see, now people are talking about it
I still remember where I was the day I saw that happen. It's a story I will be passing down to my children and my childrens' children.
It's because he's not very good at magic 😅

I just started following yall. I love magic. Introduced my kids to the game. Just really got back into it really big. Keep playing. Love the jackets Prof.
I'd love to see all four of you play again, that was genuinely a great game to watch.
I dig how Prof is dressed like the instructor of a Chinese restaurant.
"I'm sorry for killing you so fast!" This truly is a Commander moment.
so glad I decided to binge shuffle up & play again, almost forgot about the politics of bookcase vs bookshelf
SPENCER CRITTENDEN?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! What an incredible guest. I'd love to see a series where he DMs for the Prof and friends

Looooved that part
Super fun episode! Very glad to see Taalia on the show.
Thank you!
This is the most unhinged Shuffle Up & Play and I sort of love it. ahaha
Taalia killing two people in one turn was pretty funny
gotta be one of the best episodes loved it !
Prof, if it's any consolation, that suit is top-tier, and Yargle and Multani is as strong as you described. Taalia proved your point!
When he said to Spencer that, among certain circles, he is the most known, he was talking about me. I spent SO MANY hours with Harmontown, Harmonquest, and That Happens
To actually witness Taalia secure two commander pop shots, and a sac commander ping. ALL LETHAL. Amazing game, editing, people, and commentary.
The thing is, Suspicious Bookcase isn't really a bookcase. It's a door disguised as a wall with a bookcase. So it's just as much a wall as Crashing Drawbridge, if not more so.
