35:31 it seems like a lot of people are misunderstanding zinnia. Anthems and +1/+1 counters don't affect her buff. She only cares what creatures base power are.
Just bc this is the third time I have seen this I am compelled here. Two Combat Celebrants is not infinite combats. Kiki Jiki or Helm making a new one each combat will do it but just cloning it once will not bc of the first sentence.
Me screaming “please read Combat Celebrant” at my screen. Not to mention that exerting them both in the same attack will not give you the result you want
I really do like the new "Gift" mechanic. Struggling between wanting the group hug or enchantments precon. Two peeps in our pod got the squirrels. Great game as usual.

Ms. Bumbleflower puts a counter on "target creature. It gains flying until end of turn." So they aren't different creatures you give counters and flying to. I'm not loving the group hug deck; it seems to be all over the place (card draw and +1 counters, I guess), without real synergy. instead of a Baird, stewart of Argive, they could have put in a Nils, discipline enforcer. The more counters a creature has, the harder it is to attack you; and you can give counters with each spell you cast. Also, what's up with the Jolly Gerbils? "Whenever you gift something, draw a card," and there are a grand total of, what, four gift cards in the deck? It's like an archmage emeritus with 4 instants and sorceries in your deck; or a beast whisperer with 4 creatures. Such an odd choice. (And the main set gives you a whopping 4 or 5 more options within these colors.)
@@oldmanstrolseeyt2121 "Gift a card" is a specific mechanic with specific rules text. So are "gift a fish", "gift an octopus", and "gift a turn". Ms. Bumbleflower forces target player to draw a card, but it does not "gift a card" and therefore does not trigger a card with the text "whenever you gift a card"
@@oldmanstrolseeyt2121 Sadly she doesn't "gift" cards. It would have been awesome if they'd worded her ability so that it did, but that would have made it tricky to "force" you to have an opponent draw a card rather than have it be an optional trigger, which would lean more toward politics rather than group hug. Only way to do this I can think of is giving her both "Spells you cast have 'Gift a card.'" and "Whenever you cast a spell, if a Gift is promised, put a +1/+1 counter... If this is the second time you have done so this turn, draw a card. Otherwise, return that spell to its owner's hand." Or possibly by defining "giving a gift" as broad enough to include Ms Bumbleflower's wording, but that would make Jolly Gerbils absolutely broken and work with everything from Kwain to Forced Fruition EDIT: Even that wording for Ms B wouldn't work as you could cast Ornithopter or any other free spell and return it to your hand for an arbitrary Storm count
I'm hoping we get more Gift cards as it seems like an excellent variation of kicker and could fit into any set much like Ward. Hopefully they get wilder with Ward costs and experiment with Gifts too. Like, I'd love a "Gift a card from their graveyard", "Gift 2 +1/+1 counters", or "Gift 1 mana of any color"
You are not using the gift an extra turn card correctly. Lol you want to use it when there's three players left, you gift someone like the grul player an extra turn essentially giving him two turns to deal damage to the other player's board before you enter the game again. Helping you deal with your problem
Really sorry to hear that some bad language has slipped through, we are usually VERY careful to make sure this doesn't happen. If you have some time stamps that would be helpful?

As a Christian, it’s just all the times the lords name is taken in vain. While a lot of people may not care nowadays, there’s still plenty of us who do. Thank you

Yes. 30 minutes of my life I'll never get back until my buddies finally understood lol

Great game chaps, that gruul deck looks like a bit of me 👌
Animals, puns and trashy, group hug fuelled violence 😂 cracking episode !

i think it takes a certain kind of person to pilot group hug efficiently
"can we count to 16?" is hilarious
What a game 👏🏼
35:37 Bird Bard gets +X+0 for each creature with a base power 1. Emphasis on BASE. So buffing his 1/1’s does not lower his commander's power
Matt's board state by the end was insane!!
Christian: That was your last turn Wally *sinister tones*
also Christian: I'm playing group hug....I'm just helping people draw cards.
LOL
He'd have done the same to me! Hahahaha
42:01 - It's like Squidward and a cat had a baby
Was there also a rose room treasurer trigger that could have happened with the jacked rabbit?
This has been my most anticipated set. Bet you can't guess why that might be hahaha.
Why is there only one Matt in the gameplay video? Thumbnail was deceiving!!😂 Love the content lads!! Keep it up!

The commander, Ms. Bumbleflower, gifts cards when just playing any spell. Comboing with the commander is still probably worth running the Girbil🤷♂️
