I was honestly hoping for Combat Celebrant to trigger at least once so we could have a:
- I go to combat.
- But we already had combat.
- Yes, but what about second combat?
In one of the many alternate realities, it happened. Take comfort.
Elevenies?!
@@ViperiishDo you remember the alternative reality in which she had 3 Combat Celebrants?! That was so awesome :)
Thieving this for next commander night. If you're having a good day prior to reading this reply, it's me wishing you the best!
I appreciate that y’all leave in the table talk and combat math as they are a part of the commander experience that I enjoy
def makes it more natural/real and less high production/fake feeling like some other channels.

It's amazing seeing Kyle Hill step in for Brian so he can take time for himself. True friendship
I'm amazed Kyle Hill managed to make it to the TCC channel for battlebond and at the same time be back for commander at home. 😂
@@vinluv You need to know the physics to break them.
😂
This is one of my favorite running jokes from across multiple channels

As someone who has admired MTG from afar for years without getting involved, this LOTR set was the hook I needed. Picked up all four decks and roped in the whole gang of friends. I absolutely love the Elf Deck and all the politicking. I was hoping a video like this existed!
Welcome to the money sink
Same here. Played in the mid to late 90s; sold all those cards a few years ago, and uh... bought a house. Had no magic cards apart from a 2019 "game night" box set that i kept unopened "just in case." well, three weeks ago that was still the only magic thing i owned; today I have 4 LotR commander precons, both midnight hunt, both crimson vow, rebellion rising and more token creatures than i think i will ever use. Still trying to convince my teenage children to give this a go, haven't even played yet.
@@cram6916hope you’ve had success! If not, there’s a ton of ways to play online using cameras and your physical cards. Good luck and have fun 🤝
Hey if your children haven't budged, give it a fresh try! Some side incentive might do the trick
Seeing Rachael play a precon is like watching Magnus Carlson play Checkers 😂
I think Rachel can win with a random pile of cards
I have not seen Chris since he played Champions of Midgard with Wil Wheaton like 7 years ago. I’m so stoked to see him doing well and still being involved in board games and nerdy things. An absolute pleasure seeing him again still just as funny and witty as he was back then.
That's where I remember him from. Spent most of the video trying to figure out where I'd seen him before!
I remember him from that and also his Spell Slingers episode
@@HamStudiosI haven’t seen Chris since that spellslingers episode where he bullied Day9 either!
he was in day9s show spellslingers years ago, that was my favorite show

Commander at home is honestly my favorite commander content on the internet. Please continue to support this channel!
You have excellent taste. ;)
You mean your favourite "MtG"-content, my dear friend. 😊
@@PD-tr1uy there’s non commander mtg content?
My favorite part of this dogs-resting-their-chin-on-the-table channel is we also get a whole Commander game with each video, for free!
Brian sniping the Farseek on Olivia's top deck was hilarious.
Absolutely adore seeing Rachel play games of Magic. She is such a relatable goofball and it's absolutely fantastic. Also, Bryan *IS* the bad guy.
Spelling his name with a ‘Y’ makes Brian just that much more evil… or evyl.
Every time I watch her I laugh and learn alot about the game, she's just so good!
I think you mean Kyle

RACHEL WEEKS IS THE BEST
As someone who replays Super Mario RPG every year, I too am stupidly excited for remake Olivia :D
I was so pumped to see this coming out. My favorite SNES game of all time.
It's up there for best games I've ever played, but I'd love to have a good remake, it's the kind of stuff that makes you wonder. Then again, I actually preferred Thousand Year Door, and still have a working GC (as far as I know), so I could still play that, but it's certainly exciting!
Yes same! I also have my SNES and original cartridge stored somewhere.
We just bought these decks it's what finally got me back into magic (after 10 years) thank you for playing them!
same!
My favorite part from the LoTR books was also the whales assisting in the battle of Minas Tirith 🤣
I adore Rachel and the vibes she brings to the table. Great humor and always on top of effects and triggers. Everyone in this game has great onscreen energy
Wow seeing Chris Kluwe at a magic table reminded me of one of the first mtg videos I watched where he annihilated Day9 with a Demonic Pact deck AND he's playing my favorite precon from this set!!! Great surprise to wake up to!
The "I don't remember that from the movie" was hilarious haha.
Quickly you guys are becoming one of if not my favorite commander channel when it comes to playing the game. You guys actually make me want to play after or while watching your videos because you guys make me feel how I feel when I play with my friends, thank you.
Everyone always seems to have more fun when playing precons.
Now I want a "Ride the Whales to Mordor" playmat.
For Brian:
I think that actually the treasure token has a barrow blade on it, which is another of the Tales of Middle Earth team’s flavour wins.
At the end of Chapter VIII of Fellowship, “Fog on the Barrow Downs”, when Tom Bombadil rescues the hobbits from the Great Barrow, he goes back into the Barrow to get some of its treasure. He places it on top of the mound the Barrow is under and says that he does so in the hopes that someone will come and find it and take it away, because that will stop the barrow wights coming back.
So, it then makes sense that treasure tokens, which are meant to be removed (from mounds or, in the MtG case, the battlefield), should have barrow blades (presumably whole little troves of barrow treasure) on them.
Glad to see Chris on here, him beating Day9 with Dimir all giddy was what got me into Magic.
SAME HERE!
chris kluwe on spellslingers radicalized me into becoming a blue player
Yet another great episode! Nice deck choice for Brian to start as the bad guy.
Vikings fan here, Kluwe came to MN around the time I started actually paying attention to nfl. He made weekly appearances on the local rock radio morning show and even talked about nerdy stuff. Awesome to see Chris getting into guesting on gameplay videos! Oh and seeing Rachel and Olivia at the same table is pretty sweet too.
My favorite part of these is how every one glazes over and occasionally says things like “yeah” and “uh-hu” as Brian goes into his pro tour stories.
Man Rachel is such a good mtg player I swear she has a high ass win percentage in these RUclips games
Really love these shows. Please keep them coming. Also if you can have Rachel on more that would also be great. Love the interactions, that you are all so quick and fun to watch. Keep it up!!
More to come! Thanks for the support!
We need a Bingo card for Olivia 🤣. Or a drinking game. Every time she gets mad at Brian take a shot
...we would be VERY DRUNK....🤣🤣
@@bennguyen4664unalive more like.
that sounds like a death wish XD
Brian should take the shot
Sounds like a great way to end up waking up in a bathtub.
"secret of mana with the multitap" Hell yes Chris. Hell yes. SoM was the BEST multiplayer experience of the SNES era hands down!
This is an absolutely factual statement. My cousin had a multitap, so whenever my brother and I got to visit him, we would play 3-player Secret of Mana like FIENDS until we were all falling asleep. A lot of great inside jokes and laughter from those experiences.
so cool to see chris kluwe again. havent personally seen anything hes in since probably my favourite episode of spellslingers with day9. and all i can say is. sure😌
Mario RPG is the snes game that I always come back to. Olivia is 100% right. at least about Mario RPG, come on Olivia give the LOTR movies another shot ;)
I've always wanted to play MTG and you guys have honestly sparked me into wanting to play. I love how you guys have so much fun and laughs while playing. Thank you so much for this
When Rachael tells Olivia that her hobbits are smaller and dumber, all I could think about was Gandalf yelling, "You fool of a Took!" That farseek was another moment in the life and protour stories that will continue to be told in the future.
What a nice and wholesome Game, great tablechemie. Thank you very much Commander at Home Crew. :)
Awesome to see Chris again was just binge watching episodes of TableTop the other day.
I love the jump cuts in the ads to just Brian staring with contempt into the void
Love this series. Always happy when I see it on my feed.
Bought all the decks and they are super sweet. So far I am loving Riders of Rohan the most. It pops off and goes wide super quick. As always these continue to brighten my day and always make me happy. Thank you Brian and Olivia for these videos. Whenever I am feeling the world and weight on my shoulders, I pop these on and am in a safe space.
More and more people are doing the "Olivia special" of sticking the commander into the middle of their library 😂
Better believe I’ve been doing this. It saves so much space lol
Oh my god. I even opened a Shadowfax and didn’t get the “show them the meaning of haste” joke until Olivia just mentioned it. So many details in this set!
Yay Chris! Haven't seen him since his hilarious episode on Spellslingers!
I love this show so much. The opening song and clips always bring tears to my eyes and a huge smile. Just awesome people having an awesome time.
Best commander series on RUclips?
It is so nice to see people just laughing and enjoying themselves.
Rachel embodying every LotR's nerd on our behalf! Lord of the Rings will forever be our Star Wars
finally, an episode that does my name justice
Not gonna lie this is my favourite MtG content atm and the humor in this one was fantastic. Keep it up!
I love these. It's a wonderful way to play and learn and even study.
That was a lot of fun! I love how nerdy you all were. It really does make me feel like I'm playing commander with my friends again.
This was a great show, maybe my favourite so far. A really good energy, Nice decks and bad jokes. Thanks to all involved (including Alias if she is still editing).
Hey y’all got a sponsor!! Yay!! I also picked up the full set of precons and loved them, the grixis needs a bit of help, but overall one of the best pre-con sets in my opinion
I saw you guys at Commandfest Anaheim! It was so cool to meet you guys in person and I got to tell you how much I appreciate how fun and personal these games are to watch.
for me, the fun in watching a game of magic is determined entirely by the players who play it and you guys are reallt fun to watch
Infectiously fun !!! Smiles galore !! Thanks for another awesome episode guys 😃
Rachel and Olivia playing the ones I bought is so cool
Every episode I watch just reminds me how this is the number 1 commander show.
I love love LOVE your logo! that is so cool! hats off to whoever came up with that design! This channel is great as well as Elder Dragon Hijinks!
That intro is the coziest thing every
Thank you for the Video - was so much fun to watch and see how the cards play out.
Congratulations on getting a sponsor🎉
This game we had:
2 gorgeous Ladies
2 awesome Dudes
4 amazing and fun Decks
Countless LotR-meme references
And
The most fun I ever had in watching 4 players play Commander in an eternity, all previous episodes included.
TY all for this amazing experience and the laughs, and "woo"s and "wow"s and "oh"s!
This expansion has been a doozy and a pleasure to play with on the mobile App and has given me countless fun memories already!
I personally enjoy playing "There and Back Again", sacking my Smaug to Dragonspark Reactor and then burning for 14+. 😂
I am aware it's only a turn 8+ wincon, but if you stall enough, they never see it coming. 😉
Really love this Series, thanks to Brian and Olivia for their effort on this!
Also love, that you use the Music from Harris Heller! :D
I wish I would be able to play with you guys, looks so much fun!
Keep it up!
Chris Kluwe is the man. he put money aside and did what is right. stood up for other's rights and stood up for Ray Guy also. much respect
First time watching Commander at Home. I feel like Olivia has a bit of OCD about making sure people's library is stacked perfectly straight.
Fun game. Thanks for playing 🙂
Very much enjoyed Chris Kluwe in this vid!
Thank you for the more raw and full game of commander. Makes me feel like im hanging by some friends playing, I hate videos editted like crazy. Keep it up!
BEST
COMMANDER GAMEPLAY VIDEO
EVER!!!
What a great episode! This is my favourite!
Every episode I watch makes me ready to buy my home with a big kitchen and living room for these type of nights I see in the intro
Fantastic 😂 I played Sauron myself and also Subjugated the Hobbits, then I was turned against by the table in which my board was cleared but I landed the Living Death with Sauron in graveyard but in the end I could not beat 3 players so our game ended up very flavorful and we absolutely love this set. Next night though is my upgraded Sauron using The Dark Lord instead 😈😆
As always, these episodes are fantastic. Feels like game night with friends
Soooo great that you guys got a sponsorship worthy of the show! Congratulations!
Brian Kibler is the GOAT! im really hoping to see him in the next pro tour lord of the rings, I didn't realize till about a week ago that he played in march of the machines pro tour.
Love this video! As a new MTG player it's good to watch other people play since I'm a visual learner. Thank you a bunch!
Very fun to watch! Side note, it’s Celeborn with a K sound, “kel-ae-borne” :)
so much chaos in this episode, and i loved every second of it.
Glorious episode, as always! Love the Lotr-precon decks! So much flavor and synergy in a precon is just awesome! Played the upgraded Hobbit/Food-Precon at Command Fest all day and had a great time!^^
Chris Kluwe?!? Dude. He was part of the reason I got into Magic! Who else remembers that iconic episode of Spellslingers he did with Day9? "Sure."
Probably my favorite episode. Just the epitome of dimir control
@@Lcngopher "At your end step..."
Every gameplay video of Rachel I am listening for stuff like "I love that wrenches existed" 39:27
always a joy at the table 😂
I'm gonna need Rachel and Chris to adopt me. They are m favs. Rachel is always such a joy to watch play magic and D&D, to listen to talk about MtG, has brilliant deck tech that makes her one of the best out there, AND is just such a wonderful person. Chris is such a pure soul and watching him play is really amazing. The two of them together... LORD. The best.
Absolutely my favorite commander show
Guys this was the best one ever.
Not going to lie I was a little stoned when watching. I could not stop laughing. Decks where fun but this pod seemed to just get so well I would like to watch you 4 again.
Love anything Rachel is on as always.
New pink hair looks great.
Dog face was so cute.
Loved it all it was a wonderful way to end an already good day.
Game on.
"we did it team - we can cook breakfast" - made me laugh from the heart
I'm on the same boat Olivia! Super Mario RPG was my childhood favorite. Wish the collab would have continued between the companies, makes me wonder what else they would have come up with!
Me watching: "Ooh Mortify! Kill the Shared Animosity! O-Olivia what are you- N-No kill the-... OLIVIA WHAT ARE YOU DOING KILL THE-... OLIVIA NO!"
I love what yall do, favorite Magic couple!!!
I love the show and definitely makes the day better when y’all upload
PS I love the vibes and how relaxing the music in the intro
Glad you enjoy it!
I love seeing Chandra, Fire Artisan in your intros, one of my favorite plainswalkers and it makes me smile everytime, and love the content guys!
Great episode! You guys are awesome
Holy smokes Chris Kluwe what a blast from the past!
Love the content!!! I actually built around both Aragorn and Treebeard from these decks and they have proven to be amazing decks. The ability of these precons and their potential really shine.
Chris Kluwe!!!!!!! SKOL!!!!! Followed Chris for a LONG time especially as a Vikings Fan/WoW Nerd and game enthusiast! And now he’s making appearances on here?!?!? Oh Rachel, Chris, and The Fam? STACKED and STOKED!
i fully support the in lore "give the pan to sam" song!
I think it was around 29:00?
"Let's get down to business!
Give this man - his pan!"
Just so y’all know, I love your show and I’m using this video to help teach my family how to play mtg for Christmas game times. ❤️
Now we have three cooks, a Frying pan 🍳, cookbook and a oven.
Congratulations on the sponsor!!
Awesome game, as always ! :D
Glad to see my favourite precon win, it's a beast and I loved every game I played with it !
Guten Morgen, ich bin zur Zeit krank zu Hause ( dem Tod noch mal von der Schüppe gesprungen), arbeiten darf ich noch nicht, deshalb freue ich mich Euren Kanal über Twitter gefunden zu haben. Aktuell habe ich ein Jodah five colours commander und ein Frodo und Sam Commander - only with cards from set middleearth! Danke Euch hier zu zuschauen!
Kluwe!!!! Really miss his social media, awesome to see him as a guest.
The treasures depict the new equipment Barrow Blade. It's the dagger given to the hobbits by Galadriel and a solid 1 drop.
Nope. The 4 hobbits found the weapons in the Barrow Downs, after their first encounter with Tom Bombadil.
You got a sponsor!!!!! 🎉
Me and my group did this the other night, played out the exact same way. Love the power and consistency from the new precons.
Love to see Rachel finally make an appearance on this ep!
She is just the coolest
