      @grennysohail 2 года назад +22

      Just seeing the three examples, it makes complete sense to see those get vetoed from the wheel
      Those decks specifically while tuned to play fair with the other decks, were still just really powerful to play.
      To a point that I think in French Commander communities, Edgar Markov (vampire lord, token spammer) banned him for unfair interaction.

      It’s an old anecdote from Cam, overhearing a player at YJ angrily telling a powerful magic story from Modern, about how his opponent cast Bloodbraid Elf and cascaded into Liliana of the Veil. Back in a time when Jund was very prominent in the meta.

  • @mattperkinson9604
    @mattperkinson9604 2 года назад +12

    For future reference, Cam and Ben’s commanders would have remained in the graveyard during the resolution of Danse Macabre, making them legal choices to bring back to Kathleen’s battlefield. Only once the current spell finishes resolving do you choose to move your commander to the command zone. Just wanted to say something because I know it’s a confusing interaction for a lot of people! Love the EDSC and the wheel of precons!

    • @magnetronman298
      @magnetronman298 2 года назад +1

      Also worth noting that had Kathleen chosen a commander to return to the battlefield, the commander's controller would be allowed to return it to the command zone still

    • @mattperkinson9604
      @mattperkinson9604 2 года назад +6

      Actually, no! You can choose to send your commander to the command zone when it changes zones going anywhere other than the battlefield. And since the game doesn’t remember that it’s the same entity that was sent to the graveyard, you can absolutely steal someone’s commander with cards like danse macabre and necromantic selection, with no opportunity for them to put it in the command zone if they let it die.

    Just because Nelson mentioned “Creature or player” here - There’s actually only *a single* card that says “creature or player” for damage now - Firesong and Sunspeaker, from the set when they changed the rule. I’m relatively certain F&S was an oversight too.

  • @WilyWiley1
    @WilyWiley1 2 года назад +9

    End results aside, you can really see how Wizards got better at making precons as the years went by. Nelson's and Kathleen's decks had lots of synergy throughout the 99 and with their commander. Cam's deck was just Naya BIG with a Naya counter commander. And Ben's was half a Esper lifegain & half a Esper artifact deck just jammed together.
    Still super fun to watch though!

    I love the wheel, the wheel is going to put in so much work for this series and it's amazing.
    Also amazing is how half the pod got 2 decks from the same wave of product (Oloro and Marath).
    Also also amazing to see how precons have evolved over the years, even from just looking at Ezuri to Prosper

    • @emilysmith2965
      @emilysmith2965 Год назад +1

      I have both those precons (which have since been reassembled to some degree) and… yeah. I completely forgot about Scytheclaw being a card Ezuri had. It’s a fine card, but its effect doesn’t synergize with counters at all. Got cut immediately.
      Meanwhile, Prosper can win games at your LGS right out of the box. The cards play together well. Cascade, rebound, suspend, and plenty of other oddball ways to cast cards out of exile. Love him.

    Very awesome to see so many older decks here. It’s always interesting to see how precons have evolved over time.
    Also, it’s impressive that you (Kathleen) landed the most popular Rakdos commander (at least on EDHREC), and proved your skill at using him.
    EDIT: I don’t know if you guys accept challenges,but I have one for you (or anyone). I would *love* to see a deck that not only includes both Prosper and Faldorn, but summons both at least once. I like their synergy, but I’m not great at building decks from scratch.
