    A couple of quick things we would like to say about this episode:
    1) You cannot fetch basic mountains with a Windswept Heath. Yes, Craig is a cheater. Luckily, it's a small error that had no effect on the game.
    2) Yes, we recorded this episode before the commander death triggers rule was changed.
    3) We hope you enjoy the show!

    I really like how casual this game knights felt. Even though you guys look like you're always having fun, it always feels like you guys are acting a bit "professional" during normal episodes game nights. This Ep harkens back to the first couple of game knights where it was just a group of friends playing commander and filming it. It was instantly noticeable how much more relaxed you guys were. Craking more jokes, teasing one another, and genuinely laughing more amongst each other. I love seeing the awesome guests that you bring, but I'd love to see more of this. Its what I originally subscribed for, a bunch of friends having fun with Commander.
