"A rakshasa's true form combines the features of a human and a tiger, with one noteworthy deformity: its palms are where the backs of the hands would be on a human." (5e Monster Manual pg. 257)
I don't know about any other significance for 8 within D&D, but in context of the card Long Rest, most creatures in D&D need 8 hours of rest to gain benefits of a long rest.
Regarding the Anointed Procession and Parallel Lives: Joey was right - one token becomes two becomes 4 etc, so whenever Lua made 8 dragon tokens, she'd also make 8 squirrels. I love token doublers :P
They're all replacement effects, so by the time you create 8 squirrels, you've already applied the Procession and Lives. Another way to look at it is that the order of application doesn't matter. You could say "I make two dragons, so because of Chatterfang that's two dragons and two squirrels, and then that gets doubled twice to 8 dragons and 8 squirrels"
In regard to the cat with the backward hands that is what a Rakshasa's and look like. If you hold your hand out and instead of the all of the joints flexing the way that they normally do they flex the opposite direction. They're a sort of evil cat spirit thing and it just makes them even more otherworldly.
The reasons his hands are backwards is so that when they are in their true form they are easily recognized as most creatures of that type , Rakshasas, can use magic to disguise themselves. Love using them as my BBEG in DnD games !
@Elder Dragon Hijinks: To answer Joey's question, when multiple players have effects that all trigger at the same time, the prevailing rule is APNAP, or "Active Player/Not Active Player." In this case, towards the end of the game, when AliasV had multiple effects to deal with (timestamp: 1:24:40) her effects go on the stack first, then Joey's, then Lua's, then Olivia's. Then, as effects from the stack do, those effects then resolve in LIFO -- Last In First Out -- order. In this case, AliasV would draw the card first from the Curse of Verbosity, before her creature's triggered ability would resolve.
The significance of 8 in the card Long Rest is because in order to get a full long rest, and thus regain all your HP (health), the long rest has to be 8 hours. Not sure about other cards in the set though.
They will stack, because you apply the replacement effects in any order. However you apply them, 1 token becomes 2, which becomes 4. Finally, the event occurs and you get 4 tokens for each 1 that would have been created otherwise
So this episode shows a side of commander that can be challenging - the grind to a win. Games can drag out to the point where you just want anyone to win! Great content as always
In the case of Long Rest, it’s 8 because a long rest, which fully heals you and restores all spent spells and abilities, requires at least 8 hours to complete. For any other D&D cards that reference 8, I would have to have a specific example to know if there’s any significance.
I believe the other cards they were talking about were the invokers in Baldur's Gate, which have an activated ability for 8 mana. Those are referencing a few groups of invoker cards from a few different older sets (legions, battle for Zendikar, rise of the eldrazi) that all have activated abilities for 8 mana.
Fantastic game with excellent gurests! I was a big fan of the Anje precon (it has mutated into an Asmoranomardicadistinaculdicar deck). She can do a lot of DUMB stuff at instant speed with Madness. Everyone's decks did excllent stuff and I am here for it every week.
I have it on good authority from a friend of mine who has dual American/German citizenship that Anje is in fact pronounced An-hey, since Innistrad is very much a German/Dutch inspired setting. As someone who's been playing D&D for ages, Long Rest cares about the number 8 because in 3rd, 3.5, 4th, and 5th edition 8 hours rest is the minimum amount of time necessary for a character to restore all of their daily abilities/memorize their spells and restore their HP. So if you're able to take the time (mana) to rest up, you can reset your life total to it's starting level.
I love the Malevolent Whisper play at 46:24, it's such a vampire move to go "Hey, hey. Pst. Do you really trust your buddy? Seems to me he's being really unfair to you... You should get back at him for it."
just built a version of Joey's deck with similar restrictions(except for the lands restriction) Scion of Halaster with 2 commanders should become this... "The first time you would draw a card each turn, instead look at the top two cards of your library. Put one of them into your graveyard and the other back on top of your library. Then look at the top two cards of your library. Put one of them into your graveyard and the other back on top of your library. Then draw a card."
13:41 The hands are backwards because it is drawn to resemble a Rakshasa, a shape-shifting fiend from the D&D universe. 32:22 Another D&D reference: when you take a Long Rest in D&D it takes at least 8 hours, hence the reference on the card.
I humbly own a version of Joey’s deck but instead Ms. Lua 🌟-dust commanders pilot my version! Thank you very much for the insight from your EDHREC channel Joey!
If you make that assertion, the fact you *spoiler alert* won this game would also be Joey's fault. However, one can easily trace back all *bad* things to Joey.
That was my favourite EDH game I've seen in ages. So much fun, so many cheesy dad jokes from Joey. Just a great lark all up. and Olivia is right, it's all about the fun of it all, not competition. A bloody amusing way to end the game too Alias too.
This episode showed up as I was working on my Tana, the Bloodsower & Ravos, Soultender commander matters deck. What a lovely surprise to see a very similar deck on Joeys board. (I went with Ravos because Tymna scares people. Pretty sure Tymna is the better choice, but having the 5 casting cost commander is nice for Stinging study and such at least) (I *ALSO* went through much the same process of looking at the 5 colour friends forever option before deciding to base the deck around Tana' s rediculous board presence!)
Lua your D&D deck was Awesome!!! I always enjoy games your in this one has to be my favourite though never change Lua we live you the way you are cause you love who you are and you should your fun and perfect 👌
I’m on my phone, so I didn’t notice until just now, but Lua had the CUTEST clue tokens! I definitely SAY “Jinkies!” whenever I get a clue, but I don’t have any adorable clue tokens. 😭
The creature that has the backwards hands, that _looks_ like a kitty, is a rakshasa! The whole deal is, a rakshasa, if it is killed while it is on the Material Plane, goes back to it's home plane in the Nine Hells, and when it becomes fully formed, will seek out vengeance against the one that struck it dead the first time. If, during the second time, someone else kills the rakshasa, then it will seek out the person that killed it the second time. And, there is even a D&D livestream that demonstrated this! Critical Role, during Campaign 1, had half of Vox Machina go after a rakshasa at the behest of The Slayer's Take in Vasselheim. The first time around, Vax'ildan, the Half-Elf Rogue, was who killed it. Later, the rakshasa came back, and took the form of Sean Gilmore, a good friend and one-time lover of Vax. The second time, Pike Trickfoot, the War-Domain cleric of Saran'Rae, used Sacred Flame to kill it. The rakshasa was still forming a third time when Vox Machina went into the Nine Hells, and on other business, decided to end the threat of the rakshasa once and for all, which is the only way to actually kill the rakshasa, and make sure it stays dead (which is accomplished by killing it in its home plane of existence). Trust me: Rakshasas are not "nice kitties." If you refuse a deal they wish to make with you, or if you kill one, they come after you with a vengeance, and until you go to it's lair and kill it, you have no peace.
Some other references to 8 in DnD: A longsword, among other weapons does d8 damage, some classes have d8 for hit pints per level, some spells deal d8s for damage.
With any of the doubling enchantments you can think of it like: [Anointed Procession]*[Parallel Lives]*(normal tokens + Chatterfang tokens) Or 2*2*(2 normal tokens + 2 squirrel tokens)=8 n.tokens + 8 s.tokens If you were supposed to make 2 normal tokens attacking, 2 treasures and 2 clues, with all doubling done, that should be 24 squirrels tokens after your turn was up.
Eilidh is such a blast to have in a playgroup. Watching the game gave me the impression that she tried to let the other players do their thing (for instance she let Joey hit her with Tana) and she constantly reminded other people of the option to attack her and draw a card. So I am happy she won 😊 And the way the game ended was so fun 😂
I'm loving the unique deck builds!! So refreshing to see rather than the same old overpowered commanders. Also curse deck love! I have a go-shintai curse deck, so fun 😄
The CLB Invokers have activated abilities that cost 8 mana to callback to previous cycles of Invokers from Legions and Battle for Zendikar, who also had 8 mana activated abilities. Unlike with long Rest, its not a d&d reference.
You all talk about it in the show today, but I completely agree, it is impossible to tell what lands the innastrad full arts are. It would make the viewing experience of your videos SO much better if you did not use them. They are impossible to tell what they are on mobile.
There have been a bunch of threads on Twitter lately. I know Professor from Tolarian Community College made one and a bunch of people shared their stuff.
Olivia getting salty by minute 6 must be a new record ^^ (although it's a rant pointed at annoying viewers who cry about stuff that doesn't matter, which I really can relate too) It's a lot of fun to watch as always! :)
Also, the draw triggers don't resolve at the same time, so Lua could draw an instant with one of the triggers and then respond to the remaining draw triggers.
The 8 doesn't have relevance to DnD, it has relevance to Legions, from the onslaught block. Every card in that set was a creature, and to get some actual spell effects going they made a cycle of Invokers that paid 8 mana to do... things. ( Gavin made a video about them, and why they came back for Commander Legends II )
Honestly the deal at the end was brilliant. Sometimes using your opponent to take out your enemies for you then finishing the last person off is the best play and clearly in this game it was the case here. Very smart.. So many times I'll build up a powerful board state and everyone else is thinking "need to BW" and I'm like no you don't.. Don't use your wipe and I won't swing at you.. lol I'll attack the others for us.. Sometimes works but not as often as I'd like xD
It was a fun game to watch but the end was decided by a pretty lame uninteresting deal, "hey don't kill me and I'll take out the others to make sure you win instead" is very boring. I imagine she did that only because the game had gone for a very long time and she had other commitments to get to.
Man i feel the all lady commanders. For the longest time all of my commanders were either women, monsters, or they had to be super special. I have only gotten a little better but man dysphoria is real.
As far as I know, the number 8 holds no special significance for D&D, other than one of the usable die having 8 sides. And the long rest, as others have already noted. 8 does have significance in the Chaos Deck from the 40k set, if you ever play/peruse that one.
"A rakshasa's true form combines the features of a human and a tiger, with one noteworthy deformity: its palms are where the backs of the hands would be on a human." (5e Monster Manual pg. 257)
Notably, rakshasa aren't a D&D invention. They're figures in Hinduism, although I'm not sure about the hands. That's likely a D&Dism.
@@AvonofTalamh Yep, the backwards hands thing is an old D&D addition.
@@imbecillicusrex2117 Don't you mean... An old EDITION?
ahahaHAHA!
@@AvonofTalamh Rakshasas in Hinduism are also absolutely nothing like what they are in D&D

I share this sentiment. And I play a lot of commander in my bed. Jussayin
"I'm attracted to men, I don't like them."
As a fellow gay man, I resonate with Joey's statement.
I fully identify with his statement
Well, that completely sums up all my relationships with guys.
I'm attracted and like them. Evidently the minority lol
I have never related more to a statement. Lol
Facts
A “long rest” in D&D is when your group rests/sleeps for at least 8 hours, and gets all their daily spells/abilities refreshed.
tbf, you only need to sleep 6, the other 2 are for light activity@@washada
Congrats to Olivia and Jimothy for becoming part of the RC.
YEAH, BLAME JOEY!
Regarding the Anointed Procession and Parallel Lives: Joey was right - one token becomes two becomes 4 etc, so whenever Lua made 8 dragon tokens, she'd also make 8 squirrels. I love token doublers :P
Wouldn’t those 8 squirrels get multiplied by the doublers too? All the replacement effects see each other, right?
@@GrinningFeline it might? I think you're right because Chatterfang says "create that many".
@@tamirkushilevitz8743 yeah, I’m no judge, so I’m asking around.
@@tamirkushilevitz8743 they are pretty sure it stays 8 squirrels.
They're all replacement effects, so by the time you create 8 squirrels, you've already applied the Procession and Lives.
Another way to look at it is that the order of application doesn't matter. You could say "I make two dragons, so because of Chatterfang that's two dragons and two squirrels, and then that gets doubled twice to 8 dragons and 8 squirrels"

Just like, 4 of my favorite people playing magic. Wish gems like these were at every magic table!
A Long Rest is 8 hours, thus the significance in the card.
Love the artists that were showcased here! Proxies and alters and playmats and everything!
Also "I have printed 6 eggs" lol

Yes! Everything is Joey`s Fault 😁😁😁
That's fair
i dont know if i just misse her saying it but where did olivia get the swamp deckbox?
Yes
The blocker declaration at around 45:00 was kind of painful to see :D
She had a 5/3 block a 3/3 token instead one of the commanders

“👋🏻RAKSHASA!!👋🏻
Isn’t the flavor of Long Rest that a long rest takes 8 hours and when players take a long rest they go back to full hp and regain their abilities?
For the Long Rest card, 8 is significant because you need 8 hours of sleep to complete your long rest and thus recover your health back to full
I have a mighty need to know where those dnd module alter lands came from, too many speakers for me to make it out. Those are flipping gorgeous.
Best episode yet🤟
Shenenninsns, explosive board states and Alias with the “mill’ win.
Also, whirlwind is a BEAST.
More Lua in episodes, plez❤️
The only thing I can think of for 8 - it's the number of schools of magic, and the number of elemental planes
Olivia you are such a joy to watch 🤣 between your deck shenanigans and comments are great 👍

Scion of halaster triggers twice, and it can be resolved twice since they worded it properly.

This Game Is SUUUUUPPPPEEERRRRR. The Hijinks is Strong in this one 🥰🥰🥰
Forever here for Joey's cheap drag race references. (And cool playmat).
The random af egg was my favorite part lol
My rule is to never pay the 1. But always pay for Mystic remora, becasue it makes other people so damn confused
Olivia getting salty by minute 6 must be a new record ^^ (although it's a rant pointed at annoying viewers who cry about stuff that doesn't matter, which I really can relate too)
It's a lot of fun to watch as always! :)
Let's gooooo! joeys commander commander deck is awesome
1:39:32 Shouldn't it be 2×4=8 treasures and 8×4=32 squirrels?
Also, the draw triggers don't resolve at the same time, so Lua could draw an instant with one of the triggers and then respond to the remaining draw triggers.
I've never felt more represented than when joey made that comment about men

Got curious about Joey's deck list. It's pretty much "I'm playing commander dot deck" lol nice 👍
Me for most of the episode: Who the heck is Mister Gramora?
Hahaha🤣
I saw Anje and clicked immediately. Happy to be early this time. :)
Rakshasa in dnd do indeed have backward hands. also HIT the THINGS that MAKE those DINGS.
I always pronounce Anje as Ahn-juh to differentiate from Anya, the Boros angel
I hate to say it, but someone has to: this was Joey's fault. Hot take, I know, but it needed to be said.
Can I get a link to this A-Ok alterist?

Why would anyone expect Olivia and Eilidh to play competitive magic with each other?
Man i feel the all lady commanders. For the longest time all of my commanders were either women, monsters, or they had to be super special. I have only gotten a little better but man dysphoria is real.
I only play commanders that are cats, so I feel you.
They are born that way Eilidh
I play tymma tana as my equipment deck, people always think it's a cedh deck but it is just a combat damage equipment deck
I have a pauper deck on arena in the works that's all lady soldiers. Wish I had them in paper tho. It's not a great deck, but the theme is fun!
Chaos is it's own reward.

I really like Joeys deck, I want to build it.
As far as I know, the number 8 holds no special significance for D&D, other than one of the usable die having 8 sides. And the long rest, as others have already noted.
8 does have significance in the Chaos Deck from the 40k set, if you ever play/peruse that one.
