If you cast a spell with flashback, you can't pay any alternative costs such as overload costs. You can pay additional costs such as kicker costs. If the spell has any mandatory additional costs, you must pay those to cast the spell with flashback.
I think Ian forgot Forsaken Monument lets his Underground River tap for two. At 5:30 they tapped 4 mana to cast the Filigree Attendant when they could have tapped just Command Tower, Exotic Orchard, and the River. My unsolicited opinion is that I’m not sure the monument should even be in the deck. The constructs don’t need help being big and I didn’t see many lands that produce colorless or colorless creatures and spells to take advantage of the other things it does. Also, Urza has affinity for artifact creatures, not artifacts. He should have cost 5, not 3, when it was cast at 6:47.
Love me some Talrand, my second commander and the deck that made me love control! I've built so many versions of him and no counters really helps introduce yourself to new folks, it really helps to have some time to enjoy the game without people hating on you too much!
Talrand is the first deck I ever built. He is one of my favorite commanders, I'm glad he won the game, even though the Blustersquall couldn't be overloaded in this instance. Despite that missplay, I love that Max decided not to run any counterspells in his deck. Much respect.
If the blustersquall with overload has been cast through Lier, it cannot be done, since you're paying an alternative cost with an alternative cost. Anyway, cool game!
HUGE misplay near the end... flashback is an alternative cost just like overload, so you can't overload any spells you cast through Lier. Max couldn't overload Blustersquall from his graveyard that way.
Oh man I love this channel and everything you do. Usually that includes the music. I'm not normally one to critique but that snapping in the music was very distracting.
So cool to see the card that won it take down a game! I think it’s the first time I’ve seen someone make it work and win (and quite a few people at my lgs keep rolling that Sisyphean rock up the hill)

Was coming to the comments for the same reason.
Looks like Micah misplayed that cultivate early on. He put both lands into play when it should've been one
Yeeeup. 5 mana turn 3 with one ramp spell haha never.
He also didnt reveal with his fortified village. Shoulda came in tapped.
The ramp spell wouldnt have been able to come in. Gotta keep an eye on micah!

Overloading the blustersquall from the graveyard was a no no! Not sure if Andrew could’ve won, but otherwise this was an entertaining game!
9:27 Micha couldn't block as urza gives artifact creatures menace

How did Micah block a menace construct (urza gives artifact creatures menace) with a 1/1 token?!
Also, 5 lands on turn 3, he put 2 lands with his cultivate instead of 1

Anyway, cool game!
Oh! Good to know.
cultivate put two lands on the battefield at 2:17?
good catch
Also fortified village came in untapped and darksteel ignot wouldn't have been able to come in
Micah finessing them lands.

Hell yeah Blustersquall! That card got me hooked on Magic when I was younger
I wasn't expecting the take and deck to be that cool!
Talrand deck. Autocorrect
I love Talrand, and with no counter spells, very funny game
How did the Human tokens have haste at 8:06?

Yo, can you share the Halana and Alena deck list?
So cool to see the card that won it take down a game! I think it’s the first time I’ve seen someone make it work and win (and quite a few people at my lgs keep rolling that Sisyphean rock up the hill)
You forgot to draw from your beast whisperer
Clicked on the video because of Talrand, he is my boy!!
Can you put the deck list for Helena helena?It didn't postCan you put the deck loose for Helena helena? It didn't post.
Since when can you put 2 lands into play with Cultivate, casual turn 3 with 5 lands c'mon Micah you know better.
