And even freaking Edgar Markov, my first love?! I need to see you play more of these!

    I recently built a Xyris Deck. If your opponents don’t kill your commander right away every time, you can really pop off. Wicked fun deck to pilot. One of my recent favorite commanders by far.

    might have some suggestions to more conditions since you guys have those "one colour, two colour, artifact etc" games :
    - price limitation / budget only
    - banned cards included
    - Commander 201x product but upgraded with x budget
    would love to see more fun stuff you guys do with the conditions
    keep up the content!!

  • @bryanjortiz-serrano5775
    @bryanjortiz-serrano5775 4 года назад +2

    The way I define casual commander is that it’s more degenerate than cedh but not as consistent. Infinite combos are allowed but it’s not an instant win condition like fish consultation. As long as it’s not super optimized with mana rocks and tier 1 competitive, I find it okay. I play Yarok and have drake bounce infinite mana and with things that make me draw my deck or kill everyone out I win the game. I also have xyris and win with wheels and Purphoros. Another deck that I have is tatyova with retreat to coralhelm and some bounce lands and walking atlas/ Sakura-Tribe Scout. Also, Kalamax with infinite copy spells making him big and one shooting everyone with burn spells like chandra’s ignition.
    For me, casual is more the way you get there vs the way you get there with cedh. So the only rule I would change is the infinite/combo and more flexible with the rocks

  • @gdiridium5525
    @gdiridium5525 4 года назад +3

    One thing I enjoy about watching you guys play more casually is that even though you don't have the super high power decks, you still have the good playstyle and threat assessment - one of the things I dislike about playing lower power commander is that the threat assessment is much poorer, and there's a lot more spite-playing, which ruins the game imo

    Worth noting, it would cost you two mana each time to skullclamp one of your snakes, the equip ability targets and Kira affects you as well as your opponents, so Kira would counter the first equip trigger for each snake.

    Does Skullclamp have to be double equipped to the snakes because Kira, Great Glass Spinner counters the first equip? Not sure how much it would have impacted the outcome of the game (likely none) but I was curious if that was the case.

    On the turn you played Twilight Prophet, you should have played captivating vampire. First it would pump your vamps so you could swing for more damage and you could steal your opponent's commander so he couldn't make so many snakes. I think when played right, the vampire deck would have won that game.
