    Great ep, just want to mention that George could not play his commander and then flip it to the prismatic bridge, you choose which side when you cast it. Which also means he accidentally cheated by triggering his Ephara. Also, Ben could have (statistically speaking) proliferated Joe's slumber counters on his commander to prevent it from ever becoming a creature

Once you get to know people and everyone is comfortable with each other EDH is a blast. MTG is a blast and you don't have to pay a fortune to have a good time.

    Upkeep before draw. Bush should've done bridge trigger before drawing for turn. it's small, but especially when you've got a flier that can let you scry 2 it matters a whole lot which happens first.
    also you choose which side to cast Esika on but someone already mentioned that.
    Great series regardless, probably my favorite use of AI presidents, the misplays make it all the more realistic.

    Proliferate requires you to select a number of permanents. Since ben didn't select arixmethes the first time, it technically wouldn't have gotten another slumber counter
