I'm actually extremely glad to hear this. Understanding the game is extremely important to making decisions, and if there's one thing I know, you understand this game. I'm curious to know more about the input they're getting from players, so while not quite a question, I look forward to future content on the nature of your work.
Real question: will you be getting to put forth opinions on cards in production? Or only cards that currently exist to determine a role in commander? Rather than ask about WHAT will be banned, is wizards planning to move forward with the 4 tier system as is or are there any developments to the format that have been determined since it was first proposed? Obviously no pressure to answer if you can't but if you can inform us about anything it would be good to get an idea of the format post tier system
Taking the time to animate the shadow of the jaw as you're talking is exactly the kind of unnecessary attention to detail I love from a content creator.
Really happy you are on the panel. I really admire your knowledge of the game, and you seem like a decent and reasonable person. I think we are in good hands
Brilliant to see you specifically, let alone an Aussie on the panel! You are absolutely going to smash it! Do us all proud! (Also Aussie deck mentioned!) - Rubee 💚
100% had you guys in mind when I mentioned the Aussie deck 😂 Appreciate all the support 🙏 looking forward to continue working closely with you all and the wonderfully, inclusive community you've built. 100%, your voices need to be heard 😊
Great to hear you're on there, I was very excited to hear Olivia is back and now I'm even more so! Honestly I'd like WotC to stop making cards for commander (outside of commander products like decks and commander masters). Commander is a format where every card can find a place, and even ones that do not fit well (perhaps because they are too powerful) can be dealt with by focusing on the social aspects of the format (and yes, the rare ban occasionally). Rule 0 exists, power brackets are coming, and pods develop their own tastes and sometimes even rules. All that to say: WotC should just make magic cards, not commander cards, modern cards, or whatever other format becomes popular. Wish you luck mate!
Was pleasantly surprised when I read your name on that list. I had to read it again just to be sure. Been learning a lot from you and your rules clarification. Good luck on this new gig!
Honestly, I was extremely happy to see you on the list. Thanks for the extra details video. I think you will bring a lot to the table with your being a part of this! ❤
Really cool to see an Australian content creator on the panel! I've struggled to find Australian Commander content creators before, so it's cool to find you from this :D
You should check out @CozyMagicClub, @getCommanded and @casualcompliance excellent Commander content creators here in AUS. There's also @TaunaMTG who is fast becoming the biggest MTG channel in AUS (close to overtaking me!)
Still early days and that hasn't been confirmed at all yet. It's a questions that I'll be feeding back to the team, but I can't imagine we'll hear an answer on this side of the year.
An important and mentionable point to me would be, that the membership to the CFP is on only for a year from the start and that the number of members will likely go down afterwards.
Thank you for being open about this, im going back to watch a bunch of your old videos to see how i relate to your opinions about the game, but since you say you're a lot like me with power level, im not to afraid of it.
My Commander journey has been one of growth for sure. I used to only play miserable mono blue decks (about 15 years ago 😂) and only care about winning, but my Commander palette has come a long long way since then. I don't have too many Commander videos on the channel right now (outside of rules related things), but next year I'm looking to post more content about formats in general.
I have a very strong connection/bond with 90s/00s video games. (SNES is my favourite console), so you'll often hear a lot of video game influence in my sound design 😀
Congrats! I hope they really utilize you guys, and don't just use you as scapegoats. I haven't trusted WotC since Magic 30th, but I hope it gets better and I know there's people in the middle who really care about the format and want to advocate for the community as a whole
i have two questions. one for the channel and one rule one - would a mini series of keywords that like to pop up every now & again and maybe giving some neat things that can be done with/for them be a good thing? for example: i didn't know that if something was a "artifakt creature" it would make two check marks for the delirium count - is there a chance that you could suggest making impluse draws consistent to each other? for example: i consider putting "reckless impulse" into a deck but my brain fries every time trying to understand when the cards can't leave the no no zone anymore and i don't know how i could explain it to ma friend group, as most of the time i'm the first that does less conventionnel stuff
i agree with everything you stand for! i hope we can also share the opinion that the "bracket system" is dumb and completely arbitrary and there was always a system already in place being the rarity of what the card is and if WotC disagrees with where a cards rarity lines up they can reprint it at that rarity and clarify "Card X is X rarity." For example, while Lightning Bolt is legal in pauper, for the system's purposes it's treated as though it is rare as it was printed at rare in Strixhaven.
I hope Dockside gets unbanned. I played the card in most cases without any Combos for years. Since my playgroups play more Mid Power, Dockside was never a problem. A friend here in Germany was also pretty surprised like me. Mana Crypt, Sol Ring and Jeweled Lotus are the reason for much more None-Games. I still don't mind them, but what does a Dockside do in an early Game or at Midpower table? Not much. A Dockside early Game creates between 3 or 5 Treasures. Still very good. The named Reason, that Ward Commanders made these cards even worse is so weird. Cards like Woja and Miirym are the problem. What about people who play less powerful and older Commanders? I am still upset because of the banned cards.
Congratulations, if this is what you want! You make great videos so I am glad you are being recognized. Moving forward ban lists will be ignored and RULE ZERO will reign supreme. Top down arbitration is over.
Yes, the original Commander Rules Committee has been absorbed by WotC after the last bannings caused Death Threats to be sent to members of the RC. With this new panel, all former RC members were offered a spot.
People upset about the disparaging agreement. Has never worked a job before. I can't work somewhere, crap. Talk your boss, and expect good things to happen
Honestly, I don't trust Wotc at all. Their track record has not been the greatest looking back at what they have been doing to DnD. I can see them doing something similar to Mtg.
@@attackoncardboard I see them doing a subscription service that will evaluate the tier level of your deck. The current banlist is understandable, but the tier list idea will be convoluted and hard to understand.
Congrats about being part of the commander panel. While i am happy for you, i am also am sad that some of the person listed i dont want to be part of the panel generally some of the previous RC members. Excluding olivia others i really dont want them. But it is what it is. Sad also that some of the person i wanted to be included werent there. Oh well i really hope they would listen to you guys and you would listen to us equally because knowing hasbro they will milk us out until dry as dessert..
I am going to be honest, I do not like such panels. I don't want to imagine what happens if a member of the panel does somethin controversial. They will also always cause controvery with every change. Some people will say the panel has too little power, others say it has too much or that it should be abolished entirely. Like, I genuinely hope you are prepared for this because you and the other members of this panel will be blamed for every decision by people who don't like that decision, regardless of your actual influence over it.
I've previously worked in Retail/Customer Service, I'm well aware you can't please everyone 😂 The panel could make the best decision for the game, and there will always be a group of people who will be unhappy about it.
@@attackoncardboard Yeah, I mean I genuinely hope it works out. But my favourite multiplayer video game also has an "official community ambassadors that hold no real power"-thing and it has never worked well there.
@attackoncardboard they may be concerned about the NDC can you confirm if you had to sign one and how that may/maynot effect your ability to comment on certain things? I know you mentioned it in the video but perhaps they need more info?
If you have any more questions, you can either comment here or message me on X and I'll do my best to answer them.
I'm actually extremely glad to hear this. Understanding the game is extremely important to making decisions, and if there's one thing I know, you understand this game.
I'm curious to know more about the input they're getting from players, so while not quite a question, I look forward to future content on the nature of your work.
Does the contract live in perpetuity?
Will wotc send the pinkerton's if y'all get death threats?
will you be sending polls to youtube community to gather feedback from us?
Real question: will you be getting to put forth opinions on cards in production? Or only cards that currently exist to determine a role in commander? Rather than ask about WHAT will be banned, is wizards planning to move forward with the 4 tier system as is or are there any developments to the format that have been determined since it was first proposed?
Obviously no pressure to answer if you can't but if you can inform us about anything it would be good to get an idea of the format post tier system
What's the state of judge training in 2024?
Are there resources available for people who would like to do so?

Wow so those eyes just blink themselves do they!!!@LazarusIsBackBaby
Honestly, this sounds like the best outcome for everyone. Can't wait to see your future imput/output on this. Long live Commander.
Congratulations and good luck! I have faith y’all will do a good job!
Much appreciated 🙏 big fan of your work!
Pays to know the rules 🎉, congrats on getting into the panel the real work starts now!
Really happy you are on the panel. I really admire your knowledge of the game, and you seem like a decent and reasonable person. I think we are in good hands

im pretty jaded with how wizards of the coast handles anything
BUT, they picked a decent panel. kudos to wizards in getting something right
holy shit dude!!! congrats thats so cool!!
This video is invaluable info. Thank you.
I’d like to thank you for coming out honestly as an enemy of the commander community ^_^
Looking forward to the tiers - hopefully A LOT of the cards are unbanned
i have two questions. one for the channel and one rule one
- would a mini series of keywords that like to pop up every now & again and maybe giving some neat things that can be done with/for them be a good thing? for example: i didn't know that if something was a "artifakt creature" it would make two check marks for the delirium count

Now all you need to do is take my boy Rofellos off the ban list 😢. I want to finally have a cEDH viable monogreen commander.

This is encouraging and encouraging making me feel less negative and concerned but I remain skeptical of WoTC.
What does this mean for the Commander Advisory Group? Is it officially dissolved?
Yes, the original Commander Rules Committee has been absorbed by WotC after the last bannings caused Death Threats to be sent to members of the RC.
With this new panel, all former RC members were offered a spot.

Cool.

Could really use some antitrust legislation to bust up ol' Hasbro right now
The only correct take
When you say "I can see them doing something similar to MTG", what can you see them doing?
@@attackoncardboard I see them doing a subscription service that will evaluate the tier level of your deck. The current banlist is understandable, but the tier list idea will be convoluted and hard to understand.

PRINT MORE MYRIAD 🗣️
Unban everything just bracket 5 some stuff or something. I'd love to play power or Sylvan library in commander
Lol I meant Library of Alexandria
Ban my favourite card? I'd like to see you try banning "Basic Island" 😂😂😂

What criteria would you have for being on the panel?

Just me I am not going to abide by anything WotC puts out regarding EDH.
You won't abide but the market value of your cards will. Another great reason to proxy cards.
@@Freddisred yup
Commander is a casual format, that always was allowed.
Y'all will be just as useful as the CAG was
I look forward to coming back to this comment 🙂
This is the worst thing that has ever happen to the commander format. With Hasbro in control just look at what their doing with DnD ,
How is it the worst thing? We haven't even done anything yet 😂
The only people this is good for, is WOTC. You're one less person that can call out their BS now.

ban all counter spells. they are a broken format limiting mechanic that exists only to prevent people from playing magic at virtually no cost.

Its commander dont care my least favorite format.
you shouldnt be no one on that list should be on it. if people dont play at lgses their opinion of the format is garbage
Thanks for letting us know. I'm unsubbing from all these channels since they can't be trusted to share unbiased views about the game and WotC.
