    Honestly the whole production this time around with the sponsor reels, rule zero convo, and overall editing felt more professional and way cleaner. Big ups to you.
    I also enjoyed seeing how fun and laid back things were at the table. That to me is what EDH is all about. Fun first. Cheers to you Lynch and this channel.

      Not saying these are the best five to get, but they tend to either make me win or lose due to the ramp I get, as well as the insane damage with Atarka on the field :)

    Fun fact:
    When you have an untap trigger like mesmeric orb, since no one gets priority during the untap step, the trigger doesn't go on the stack until the beginning of the upkeep which means that Olivia's Mirri's Guile lets her rearrange cards before she mills (though since she's milling more than she looks at, that would be pointless)

    What an awesome episode. Olivia was a riot end to end, all these guests need to be frequent! Season 2 is gonna be amazing!! Big year for IHYD I see it!
    Also cool note, command zone did a “decks I built and hated” episode and someone talked about an Omnath enchantress deck with that same goal of decking himself and he did not like it at all. Olivia clearly had a blast and enjoys the deck! Just a cool clear observation of how people enjoy different things

    Wall of text incoming, but I have to gush.
    This might be one of my favorite episodes. It might even be my #1 favorite. I know that the lower power/more casual/less oppressive decks my go against the theme of IHYD, but I thought it was a nice change of pace, and is honestly more representative of the kind of EDH that I enjoy.
    All the guests were great. I loved how unique Rachel's deck was and how Brian Kibler was playing big dumb dragons. Phenax was my first commander deck, as I too love mill.
    TL;DR, Excellent content. Keep it up!

    I stopped watching last season because it felt like the games were always one-sided, but if this is the kind of energy Lynch is bringing this season, I'm here all the way. Rachel was my favorite reoccurring guest from last season too so I'd love to see more of her.
