I noticed it too. There's no way it's part of the Skatune Network sound file. I think most of the drafts have just started off with a big sigh the past few weeks, haha. Magic is hard. @@Rococorico
@@majordude83 In previous episodes I thought it was just recorded silence, you know, that low rumbling (and as it was Duskmourn I thought it was intentional, because it was EERIE).
I think playing your first tapped land that only produces 1 color is fine if you have the life gain synergies. An extra trigger of pridemate or the cat collector could be good over the course of deck's a run.
Believer. Deck is reasonable enough but importantly the quality of Jim's play probably carries this one for a bit until the opponent's quality levels up.
Re: Stab vs Disfigure. I think long-time MTG players are rather desensitized to how gruesome old (and new) cards can be. Obviously, black cards with cruel, morbid themes are a dime a dozen, even today, but if you haven't been conditioned on it for the last 15 years, the verb "Disfigure" does imply significantly more gore, maliciousness, and cruelty than "Stab", so I think reskinning it as "Stab" is fine for a starter set. And don't forget that everything is Commander, where redundant spells aren't redundant. MKM Massacre Girl commanders are probably happy to add Stab to their deck.
Yeah, I feel like he's said these kind of things a lot. The deck lacks this function so I'm going to seemingly actively make choices so that it never gets there. Of course we're seeing this knowing the cards come, so that's the only reason I don't get too mad about it.
Don't know if It could be possibile but this run made me think It would be cool to have an in game chat with opponent so players might take suggestions and point out obvious mistakes. Obviously it should be possible to mute it
I don't like how committed Jim is to the sacrifice deck in Pack 2. We're BW and BW is the life-gain deck in this set. Not that we need to focus on lifegain but why are we focused on sacrifice? That's the Rakdos strategy.
It's pack 3 and Jim keeps saying we have a sacrifice theme. What sacrifice theme Jim, 2 common hungry ghouls and a bunch of shjtters? You literally just passed the eaten alive for a 5 drop. I'm on tilt
It is low bronze, but it still makes very little sense to me. Do new Magic players really exist? And if so, how are they brand new to card games in general? I'm almost more inclined to believe it is a bot. How do you draft a bunch of instead speed synergy and cast them all as sorceries? Edit: I hadn't even finished the game when initially replying. Watching it through physically pained me. I'm sticking with a bot.
If you listen closely, this episode starts with a big exasperated sigh. lol. Keep em comin, Jim! Godspeed!
I think it's recorded with the song, I began to notice it in Duskmourn season, not sure if it's always been there.
@@Rococorico I think that makes it even better? Lol

I've noticed sound before the theme song on every episode for AGES and I don't think it's always the same sound

Hes eating the cats hes eating the dogs!
Love your positivity towards new players
5 drafts so far and in platinum from bronze. Two 5 wins one 6 win and two 7 win trophies. Loving this set.
BELIEVER. I like the sacrifice plan here and we’ve got plenty of removal and value plays that’ll bridge us to our bomb(s)
Jim, TY!!!
BTM some of the best content and education value possible.😊. TBH i wait to draft until episode 3. The knowledge gained is HUGELY impactful.
Criticizing the Giant Growth play only for the opponent to be saving the token for double overrun was kind of funny

"Cat Collector, very good."
Karn: Ooohhh Don't do it!!!
Believer.

1:19:27 Why mulligan this hand? Ik its on the play but if he draws 1 land on turn 2 or 3 he has a 2 drop into a 3 drop.

The way this deck is coming together is exciting!
Don't have much life gain >>> skips dazzling angel. That hurt me.

just ran into a guy running 4 baked into a pie, 2 hero downfalls an 2 stabs. As far as examples go of "you can have too much removal"
i also had lilliana first pack and then ended in black/white but decided in the end to go mono white not even playing it xD
1st opponent must play a lot of hearthstone.
Mulder and Scully investigating the 6-0 curse as we speak.

Looks good think you got it
Maybe they didn’t want to lose their 1/1 because they wanted to use their double Overrun with an extra body.
Doing my part
Could have had quite the Humans or Cats deck if you leaned in to the banner
Jim is about to concede game 1 just so he can't end up 6-0
6-3 is my prediction.

Why I don't get opponents like the first one?))) I hope it is their first draft and they registered few days ago knowing nothing about card games.

All I needed to see was P1P1, believer.
Believer after arena scammed the last 7-0 😤
Comment for Karn
Wait what about the other set 😂 jk keep it up man
Hm, we could just end the run on 6:0. Then we would be 12:0 by now and avoid the curse.
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
16 lands doesn't make sense to me with 3 6 drops you really want to cast. I'd cut one of them for a land prbly.
