    ANSWERS FOR MOST COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS FOR THE EPISODE (and Spoilers)
    1. The CMC of a spell with X in its cost is different in the hand than it is on the stack. When the spell is cast, the CMC changes based on what you pay for the X cost, thus when Jimmy cast his spell, it was an 11CMC spell. It states this clearly on the Gatherer page for Void Winnower: For spells with Variable Colorless in their mana costs, use the value chosen for X to determine if the spell’s converted mana cost is even or not. For example, your opponent could cast Endless One (with mana cost Variable Colorless) with X equal to 5, but not with X equal to 6. (gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=402093)
    2. The reason Ashlen was able to cast cards from her deck that were previously in her graveyard (like the Burnished Hart) is because her graveyard was shuffled back into her library due to the ability on multiple Eldrazi that states "When THISCARD is put into a graveyard from anywhere, its owner shuffles their graveyard into their library."
    3. The Seedborn Muse that Josh owned does not have hexproof - Jacob copied Josh's Seedborn Muse with Lazav, Dimir Mastermind when it went to the graveyard. Lazav has Hexproof, and retains this ability when copying a card.

      Couldn't Josh have exiled the Kozilek to let Jimmy's spell go through at 1:06:10 (because she wouldn't have had the discard a card trigger?

    • @disappointedmom6176
      @disappointedmom6176 5 лет назад +3

      @@ismailchishti8577 I think Kozilek has priority 'cause he has the counter on the cast, while Roon ability can be played at instant speed. So basically Kozilek can use his ability before Roon can exile him. I think prio works something like this, but correct me if i'm wrong.

    For me personally, who has seen every single episode Multiple times, this is easily the greatest episode of game knights. Every deck got to shine, every player went through a roller coaster of emotions throughout the game. There were highs, there were lows. I know and I respect the fact that not every episode can be like this, and I appreciate every upload from this channel, but this is hands down the most fun I've ever had watching any video. Again, I understand and respect the nature of the "WotC sponsored" gameplay videos, but no game knights episode has prompted me to go buy MTG stuff more than this one.

      Tbf one of my first ever decks was a Simic coloured Eldrazi deck. The aim was to ramp out a Defense of the Heart on turn 2 or 3, trigger it the following turn (Forbidden Orchard was a 4 of and I ran 8+ mana dorks) to go and get two huge Eldrazi like Pathrazer of Ulamog, and then beat down with them, protected by counterspells while the table scrambled to deal with them coming down 7 turns early lol. Thing is they were only the first wave, decoys to soften up the table and clear through their answers and defenses. The category 1-3 Kaijus. They were the early game while I ramped and drew cards and soon started hard casting Kozilek, Ulamog and Emrakul from turn 6/7 onwards, recurring them, my ramp, my draw, and my counterspells whenever the Eldrazi titans died. It was brutally fun, but the group I played with kinda hated it so I stopped running it.

    One of the better Game Knights for a while, nice to get a real solid game. Jacob was fantastic, and bringing a deck that's all about playing off what your opponents do is such a solid choice, all about the 75% theory. Only thing that seems like a shame is him getting eliminated first. Of course, I get it, it wouldn't be a game without treating him like an actual player. Glad to see from the end that he got to do a lot more out there with you guys, and that he was such a good sport about everything.

    Get Jacob back! Man this was the best game knights I have seen. Ashlen had great banter, Jacob's positive attitude was great and he has an infectious smile. Great episode.

    This was probably my favorite episode yet! Not only was it a great game where everyone had a shot, but seeing Ashlen take it down in such an awesome way was amazing! I especially loved it when Jacob offered her that alliance and she was like "Nah, I think I've got this on my own", then she proceeded to knock out everyone in a row. Totally badass. Between this epic showing and Autumns recent pt win it's an amazing time to be a women in magic.

      I love the production value on these, but I was under the impression that we would get a bunch more content with the lower production on Extra Turns. What happened to those? There's been 2 I think?

    Am I the only one who noticed that Ashlen broke the deal she made with Jacob about no board wiping for 2 turns, and denied his win with that?
    But I’m happy nobody in the table noticed, it made this incredible game last longer!

      I noticed as well though I wasn't sure if the two turns had already passed at that point. In Commander games there is so much going on it's hard to keep track lol

      It depends on how you count. They made the deal at Ashley’s turn does that count as one or is it next two turn?
