This is an accurate representation of 4 people who know each other playing commander. Politics that dissolve into light-hearted name calling. Warms the heart!
Damn that Gavin wholesome moment complementing Olivia's deck and then getting joy off her being proud of it. Such a good dude, always love seeing him play.
@@carl6532 whether she looks uncomfortable or not in it she still accepted payment from hasbro/wotc to exploit the community that allowed this game to survive 30 years.
The oldest human is probably Jodah! Jodah was alive during the Ice Age and was there when the Ice Age was ended. This broke the Shard. Urza didn't come back to Dominaria until later (he was unable to return because his Sylex Blast knocked Dominaria out of alignment and created a sort of bubble around several planes, meaning nobody could enter or leave that bubble). Jhoira doesn't come into the story until she joins the Tolarian Academy. Although she *is* very old, Jodah was almost 3,000 years old when Jhoira was born. Jhoira's current age is around 2,250 years (making Jodah over 5,000 years old by now. And still kicking Phyrexian ass!)
My personal favorite is Chandras ignition on wurmcoil engine gain all that life and everything is dead 😅 or as a game ender in my xenagos put grafted exoskeleton on it as well for a quick infect kill lol
Me who just finished my 3rd iteration of his Kresh deck: "Ah finally got it where I wanted and it does the thing I want it to do." Sees Olivias' Kresh deck: "No please Ive already spent enough money on this thing just let me be happy with it!"
Happy birthday ED Hijinks!🎊 🎉 Fav lines from the show in no particular order: “i’m deadlifting!” “look at the cards, react to them, yes, yes” “jodah’s got coupons!” “next board wipe I draw your guys are getting BLASTED!” “is it getting late?” “wriggling skinboys” “ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Miss Plays” “are you covertgoblue or covertgowhite?” Congratulations for year 1! Thank you so much for the content, y’all kick off my weekends by coming out on Thursdays! I have gotten deck ideas from y’all and this energy is what I look for in my playgroups! To many more years! 🥂
The O stone junction (as I'm going to call it) is an excellent study on what options existed and the thinking behind the decisions made. My thought on it would have been for Gavin to put the fate counter on the demon and expect Sheldon to activate O stone's second ability. How that might have affected later game points is something the alternate reality knows. Great game, fun times. Thanks for the game.
Happy one year anniversary!!! You know it's a party when there are two Rakdos decks on the table! I was gonna comment that the master of cruelties, having both first strike and death touch, it would kill the hydra well before it deals any damage, but that dreadbore made it kind of pointless.
Love Gavin's playmat! Representing Coral Sword in Houston, the best LGS hands down! Missing it greatly after moving to Denver (although I still have some good LGSs here)
Fantastic episode. Thank you so very much for your time to make such a wonderful show! I’ve really enjoyed watching the past year and I am excited for what is to come. Some content creators I would love to see on here is Cardboard Command and Esmond from quintessential commander. Keep up the amazing work! ❤❤
Interesting politicking game with fun stack interactions. I am constantly amazed at Olivia’s ability to negotiate out of dying…and her ability to argue for why you should let her kill you. She is the master at saying “Go to hell” and making you think it’s a good idea.
I love this channel, happy birthday Eilidh and Olivia! I think Olivia was on the up and up with the deal, 100%! She would've stuck to her deal. Great game!
Congratulations on 1 Year I didn't think it's been a year yet I have watched every episode since Elder Dragon Hijinks started and I can say this is one of my preferred channels for commander games always so fun and entertaining always different gameplay every episode keep up the amazing work.
Not that it matters in the end but I think Kresh checks the power as they die and since bane of the living also reduces power I think he should get less counters
Some trivia about bane of the living for Gavin: For a very long time that card technically did absolutely nothing when unmorphed when following the rules precisely, since there was no way under the rules for an X in an ability to hook up to an X in another arbitrary ability. No one realized it for the longest time because it makes such intuitive sense.
I just started playing commander, and I bought a deck for Kardur and built it up a bit, after that I looked up kardur on yt to see him in action and came across this video, I know it’s old but I was cheering for Kardur the whole way and I’m very happy that Gavin won because I got to see my new favorite card win and it was cool to see that Sheldon had Kardur in his deck
Happy Belated Birthday, Hijinks! finally watching this episode while frying up some brats in the truck and then making some gravy to go with my pasta while out here on the road!
My brain does odd things. When I saw the "Sheldon-cam" I was waiting for it to move/change. Like getting a drawn-on mustache, or a speech bubble. Or flipping upside down or flipping the direction he's facing.
I wonder if Olivia would play Beanstalk Giant/Fertile Footsteps. It's not the most efficient card for ramp, but it ramps and gives a payoff for a lot of ramp all by itself. It could help when keeping an opening hand of all ramp XD
24:00 pumping Kresh is a may you missed it. See this is why social formats are best when you play em with your friends who (hopefully) aren't gonna ride you about that stuff :P
Yay for 1 year of awesome content! S many great guests and episodes. I know she's probably busy with Command Zone stuff, but Ashlen Rose is always fun. and iirc you had her in like episode 3, but the energy you two have is so fun and goofy and chaotic, Tappy is always a good fit. also a patron episode could be fun!
Thank you all for 1 year of Hijinks! Help us celebrate by cracking 50K subscribers! 🥳
🥳
Sheldon’s got an amazing pokerface.
"Reading the card explains the card. Unless you don't have glasses, then squinting at the card explains the card."
Lost it when Gavin said this 🤣🤣🤣
I feel attacked lol

He's a good egg
You had a better anniversary celebration then magic 30th!
its funny when one of the hosts was a shill for that.
@@jonlamoreaux2228 Look closer at that 30th anniversary vid.

Well, there you go!
Happy birthday!!
About the prisoner's dilemma question.
With as much information Gavin had, I don't blame his decision to kill Kresh
Chandra's Ignition is just the BEST. Great with OG Nicol Bolas too.
That's disgusting...I approve.
My personal favorite is Chandras ignition on wurmcoil engine gain all that life and everything is dead 😅 or as a game ender in my xenagos put grafted exoskeleton on it as well for a quick infect kill lol
"This is a friendly game."
All four players have Black and Red in their decks.
"Not the way YOU'RE playing it!" 😅
Gotta remember that some creatures had -x/-x when dying, so they only give thresh counters by how much their powers exceeds the x.
yeah big misplay there... :/
When Olivia gains 100 life and there’s still more than half the video left…
I would love a planechase Episode with gavin that would be so fun.
Sheldon with that stone-cold poker face all game - way to go!
Me who just finished my 3rd iteration of his Kresh deck: "Ah finally got it where I wanted and it does the thing I want it to do."
Sees Olivias' Kresh deck: "No please Ive already spent enough money on this thing just let me be happy with it!"
Anytime we get to see Wyatt just makes me so happy. Happy birthday team! Congratulations to the crew on a wonderful year of great commander.
"There should be presents Olivia, where are the presents?"
You say that like you two are not a gift that keeps giving Eilidh
😮😮😮😮 That sol ring for my Go-Shintai deck!😮😮😮😮 Happy Birthday EDHijinks! 🎊 Thank you for a year of smiles and hilarity!
🤣 Okay, okay, I'm inspired to build a handful of retro commanders:
Skullbriar
Rafiq
Kresh
Happy 1 year Elder Drago Hijinks, may you all have a bright future ahead.
I always love seeing other people's kardur decks, they can be surprisingly diverse for how narrow his text is
Happy birthday ED Hijinks!🎊 🎉

Entertaining game and Olivia did lawyered her deals well. As for guests, seeing members of mtggoldfish crew would be fun.
I have binged watched all episodes. Best Commander channel. Congrats on one year of hijinks.
Olivia, you need an in-game reminder to not miss Kresh triggers. Really badly.
The O stone junction (as I'm going to call it) is an excellent study on what options existed and the thinking behind the decisions made. My thought on it would have been for Gavin to put the fate counter on the demon and expect Sheldon to activate O stone's second ability. How that might have affected later game points is something the alternate reality knows. Great game, fun times. Thanks for the game.
Sheldon would have popped his Stone with the fate counter on the stack though.
Happy birthday!!! Hope you all enjoy the episode - the game was a blast. 😄
Yo Gavin, where’d you get the playmat?
@@onelastsalute1014 Coral Sword in Houston, the best LGS hands down.
@@onelastsalute1014 From a game shop in Houston called Coral Sword! They're awesome. (Echoing @minetree479 here)
Thank you for joining us, Gavin! Please come back any time!
You had the Bens on from LRR be cool to have Graham and Kathleen on this year
Working on it! 😁
Happy birthday to this bouncing baby toddler ❤
LOVE YOU THANK YOU SO MUCH PRINCESS
happy 1 year anniversary! such a back and fourth game with all that politicking, wild game for sure
Happy birthday EDHijinks! Just so happens to be my birthday today as well, so thanks for the great content!
Happy birthday Jonathan! Hope you've had a rad day!
Happy Birthday! So glad I found this channel! Best of luck to y'all moving forward!
Happy Birthday EDHijinks! I already know this will be a good one, two goad decks at the table means even more host-on-host violence than usual!
Happy one year anniversary!!!
You know it's a party when there are two Rakdos decks on the table!
I was gonna comment that the master of cruelties, having both first strike and death touch, it would kill the hydra well before it deals any damage, but that dreadbore made it kind of pointless.

Such a sweet game!
Happy anniversary, girls!!!
coming back and watching this brings tears to my eyes you will be missed dearly Sheldon
Happy One Year Anniversary to Elder Dragon Highjinks
Happy Birthday! Thanks for all the good times!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Thank you for a year of hijinks and awesome, ridiculous casual commander.
Fantastic episode. Thank you so very much for your time to make such a wonderful show! I’ve really enjoyed watching the past year and I am excited for what is to come.
Some content creators I would love to see on here is Cardboard Command and Esmond from quintessential commander.
Keep up the amazing work! ❤❤
46:00 Gavin, Oliva was right
You know, even if they're mostly dead formats, it would be nice to see some Planechase or Archenemy gameplay! Whether mixed with EDH or not.
I like the Luxuary Card-board cutout Sheldon clone. And congrats Aliasv 🎊💥🌈🎂.
Interesting politicking game with fun stack interactions.
I am constantly amazed at Olivia’s ability to negotiate out of dying…and her ability to argue for why you should let her kill you. She is the master at saying “Go to hell” and making you think it’s a good idea.
I enjoy the combo of kediss and slurrk. Spreading around 1/1 counters and hitting everyone
Happy Birthday ladies! You rock! Can't believe its been a year already. Love your content and this was a great episode as always. GGs
Happy First Birthday
I love this channel, happy birthday Eilidh and Olivia!
I think Olivia was on the up and up with the deal, 100%! She would've stuck to her deal.
Great game!
Happy Birthday EDHijinks!!! Great interaction, politicking and tech displayed in this fun-filled free for all :)
Happy birthday! Thank you so much for this casual ridiculous content ;)
You folk are the best representation of my experience in commander that's on the internet.
Congratulations on 1 Year I didn't think it's been a year yet I have watched every episode since Elder Dragon Hijinks started and I can say this is one of my preferred channels for commander games always so fun and entertaining always different gameplay every episode keep up the amazing work.

I think we missed some power too so it probably evened out in the end 😋

Y'all are oh so great and I appreciate you.
Sheldon & Gavin knew that Liv and Eilidh both enjoy bunching each other
Such a good game! Gavin is the wizard we all strive to be in our head.
Happy Birthday ! Day9+Brian Kibler could be fun:)

Happy Belated Birthday, Hijinks! finally watching this episode while frying up some brats in the truck and then making some gravy to go with my pasta while out here on the road!
you should totally get EDH Deck Building on the show. He plays alot of obscure and interesting commanders and has a great personality!
Hehehehehehehehe
Yay so excited to see this channel ready 1 year! Many more years and subscribers to come 😊😊 You all deserve so much success and support and love 🖤💙🤍
Diddley Squat - Creature 1/1
When this creature enters the battlefield, it enters the battlefield.
I like this creature called "Diddly Squat." 😂😂😂
If it dies... it dies.
Happy Hi-jinks Birthday
CONGRATS on one year! This, more than just about any other show, is the one I am most excited to see hit my feed every week!
Yay Happy bday to Hijinks! Would be fun to see Nitpicking Nerds 😊
One of the best pods, with great people and friends , hope we can get them again had a blast
Such a fun episode. Lots of love around that table all around.
Happy birthday!! Great job y’all . Look forward to another year
Rakdos is party colors 🎉 wooo! I love a good wholesome round of simulated horrible violence. Does a body good.
Love your content! Happy Birthday 🎁 🥳
Speaking of Jirina, Eilidh, please try giving a shot Trynn and Silvar aristocrats human tribal force 😁
34:03 pepperidge farm remembers.... Olivia, you rock
Happy Bday EDHijinx!
this was one of the most tense Elder Dragon Hijinks games youve shown so far
That was a really entertaining game! Awesome decks all around. :)
5:40 Actually EDHijinks with Planechase sounds super fun, and I would love to see it
Gavin playing in what appears to be a supply closest. 🤔
With an opponent on 170+ life in a casual game it's time to team up, assuming no one is combo killing.
9:36 you summoned me? :D
"When Orpheus goes down to the Underworld and gets Bojuka Bog'ed"
Sounds like what happened to him in Hades (the game). :D
HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🎉🎉🎉
🎉Happy Birthday EDHijinks🎉
You missed a bleep of Olivia's F-bomb and I'm SO hear (get it, GET IT?!) for it!
Damn it lol. She snuck one by me! Just pretend she said "truck" ok?
My brain does odd things.
When I saw the "Sheldon-cam" I was waiting for it to move/change. Like getting a drawn-on mustache, or a speech bubble. Or flipping upside down or flipping the direction he's facing.
Rakdos everywhere, perfect for a celebration.
I wonder if Olivia would play Beanstalk Giant/Fertile Footsteps. It's not the most efficient card for ramp, but it ramps and gives a payoff for a lot of ramp all by itself. It could help when keeping an opening hand of all ramp XD
Oh I would love to see y’all play Planechase!
Happy Birthday! Thank you for a full year of Hijinks! It has been absolutely wonderful watching this each week
24:00 pumping Kresh is a may you missed it. See this is why social formats are best when you play em with your friends who (hopefully) aren't gonna ride you about that stuff :P
Here for jirina kudro and karazikar love those commanders
Olivia’s putting her name into the running for Speaker of the House next!
Congrats on the first Bday!
23:37 I'm certain they eventually realise Kresh doesn't get 7 counters because the creatures died for being -2/-2
Heavily considering becoming a Patron for those alters/maybe playmates 😍😍😍
Just saying it’s also my birthday (soon)
Happy birthday! (Soon)
Yay for 1 year of awesome content! S many great guests and episodes.
I know she's probably busy with Command Zone stuff, but Ashlen Rose is always fun. and iirc you had her in like episode 3, but the energy you two have is so fun and goofy and chaotic, Tappy is always a good fit.
also a patron episode could be fun!
Congrats and thanks for the funny content 🤗
Oh and happy b-day ( :
So glad I binge watched some episodes from time to time. Happy birthday Hijinks.
Happy Birthday! Gavin played the imp's mischief at the wrong time, imo
