Hey caleb! Just wanted to say that as I currently have to stay in my house because of coronavirus stuff, i've been very bored, and your draft videos have been awesome at just keeping me happy and getting rid of my cabin fever a bit. Thanks! :)
Listening to this in September of 2021 and the discussion over COVID is kinda surreal... I'm really happy you stayed home, Dr. Gannon. Not just for the content, but your safety too! Sweet draft, too!
Hey Caleb, really appreciate the vids! Thanks to you, I've gone from an average drafter to regularly 3-0-ing a draft! Thanks so much for the awesome content!
At the end there, Bounce the Butcher with capsize, then get mist raven, bounce the other 2/2. Ephemerate the Mist raven for a third bounce and then you even have extra blockers!!! You had it.
So at 1:22:00... couldn't you Capsize faceless butcher in their attack step to bounce the butcher and get back your creature, bouncing another creature? Or am I missing something?
22:50 It's better to keep five landers over two landers, because it's a lot easier being able to play everything you draw when you're flooded than it is to play nothing when you're screwed. If you draw cards that you don't have the mana for they're dead cards until you do. IMO.
Nah it's better to keep the two lander because if you have a hand full of spells, often times you only time you'll be in a position where a single land of any kind will unlock your hand. (It's often about 45% odds to draw a land) on the other hand if you have a grip of only lands, you can't do anything to answer what your opponent is doing and often times you will very quickly find yourself in a position where you have to draw that one specific card in your deck to stabilise (of course much lower odds than 45%). They don't say "screw beats flood" for no reason.
@@nicklittle8399 it's harder to remember the drafts where you managed to win through a screw because, well, you eventually drew a land and proceeded to win the game. When you win after flooding you will see the obscene number of lands you drew all on the board still. Survivor fallacy.
The line for the last play of game 3 was to Capsize Faceless Butcher in the attack step, and do Mist Raven/Ephemerate shenanigans to stabilize. Or maybe just have it bounce the specter, trade with Wakedancer and use the Ephemerate on Archeomancer.
LMAO that Bidet discussion, just after I decided to get a High-tech Bidet+Dryer+Cup-holder Toilet. Now I feel vindicated for spending so much exclusively on not having to wipe my butt.
A tip for your onions: to eat them "row", you can marinate them into lemon juice for about 1 hour at least (I also do it over night). So they lose that terrible feel. By the way, of course you use soap washing your *** on the bidet....................................... Now u can use your towel to dry it........................... seriously?
For you video editing code, do you manually flag timestamps as boring or do you have automatic thresholds for screen changes and voice? Also, I would absolutely watch you do videos about coding. Do you have a second channel?
I am actually really interested in that computer algorithm. Like, I've started at your timer REALLY intensely, and it's neat to see it skip 3 seconds every now and again so we basically get non-stop dialog. It must edit out stuff on a bigger basis than "CALEB NO SPEAKING, DELETE VIDEO".
Oh, and by the way, it is seamless. I've never even noticed those little second or two edits unless I have been wondering why the clocks are so wildly paced.
I will be uploading a video explaining it, but that will probably happen after I graduate. The plan is to start a second channel to talk about all the cool math and science stuff I am excited about.
not at the moment. I will be uploading every day at least for a little while but I'm still trying to clear out the air in my streaming room before I can really stream. I just put down a bunch of chemicals and cleaned everything but now I gotta wait for them to air out lol.
@@CalebGannon Oh yeah, is it still the mold? If so, it's crazy how long of a nuisance that's been. Well, no rush. You take care of you first. With schools shut down, I just happen to find myself with a lot of free time.
@@aaronkling yeah still the mold :/ I've done a few cleans previously but I used less potent chemicals because I knew they would also bother me so there was a tiny bit of mold smell which really limited how long I could be in there. This time I went full force so it's very hard to imagine any mold sticking around after that, I just gotta wait for the chemicals to dissipate. Yeah it makes sense you would have more free time! I'll be posting videos every day at least, and hopefully streaming in a few days. Hope you and you family can stay safe!
Hell yeah I love the UW blink manowar.dek! Coalition Honor Guard is just stupid it should have been a rare it just makes lightning strikes look absolutely silly. Strongly disagree with cutting capsize I have had no less than two opponents just concede to seeing it cast with buyback.
I heard you say you have a general inflammation disorder. Have you considered it could be dietary? Some people who go vegan lose their inflammation, others who go carnivore lose their inflammation.
it's definitely caused by mold. I've been maintaining a strict diet to reduce that inflammation though which has helped a lot. It actually got rid of some pain I've had from a neck injury for years which was a nice surprise.
You could not lost the last game, why did you do that? You coul play capsize on faceless bucher, than mist raven would return to the game , than mist raven would return wake dancer to his hand. When he would play faceless bucher, you would ephemerate the target and would not be dead, you could even win the game with this combo...
"I dont know what our win condition is."
One sentence later: "This helps us find our win conditions."
All right caleb, I belive in you.
the real win condition was the cards we drew along the way
@@CalebGannon that is just frocking gold
7:39 "Boomerang should come around"
haha. Get it?
Caleb "It's basically Time Walk" Gannon
"Card draw is fixing"
" *the thing* is basically *literally the thing* "
jkmsr elvish spirit guide is basically mox emerald
Aether gust is literally just standard time walk
@@antoniobush4560 My red aggro deck agrees with you
When you waffle-stomp your doodoo down the drain and it smooshes between your toes 😩
Only the REAL know what I'm talking about.
good lord lmao
no pleaes no
OMG I paused the video right after he said waffle-stomp down the drain because I couldn't hear what he was saying anymore I was laughing so hard XD
It hurts to be real...

Just got my pauper decks in the mail, can't wait to play them with my friend! Thanks for inspiring me to get into pauper!
Can confirm that blinking stonehorn multiple times skips multiple combats. They stack up.
42:35 Bidet hype! It's the civilized way to live. Home depot sells cheap ones that bolt to an existing toilet.
At the end there, Bounce the Butcher with capsize, then get mist raven, bounce the other 2/2. Ephemerate the Mist raven for a third bounce and then you even have extra blockers!!!
You had it.
the news: "stay at home, thats safer for you"
me, a gamer: "what else is new?"
also no one expects the fairy duelist
This is how the world ends, not with a bang, but with mana screw.
Your videos are amazing to just listen to while grinding homework for the digital schooling because of Covid-19.
"I am fully on the bidet train."
This could be your slogan for a 2024 presidential bid, I would vote for you on that platform.
You’re making my self imposed exile much more bearable
Love you
The real win conditions here are beating the opponent with the strangest, most abstract combination of cards possible, and I love it.
Also, " we can be base black, with a light Arcanomancer aplash" basically summarizes why I watch your videos. Innovation is not found in the common.
So at 1:22:00... couldn't you Capsize faceless butcher in their attack step to bounce the butcher and get back your creature, bouncing another creature? Or am I missing something?
With Covid-19 I have to say your videos are amazing parts of my day

Round 1: 21:15
Round 2: 45:02
Round 3: 1:00:20
when you are playing MTGA while watching Caleb play MTGO
On the last turn why no capsize and to get back bird to bounce am attacker?
wish we got more etb effects but another fun draft, thanks my man, making the quarantine much more bearable ;-D
Hey man I sell a ton of stuff online related to marketing any chance I could talk to you about that script to edit videos?
What exactly does your video editing script do?
At 41:15 I thought he was just joking like he ate all those things like one after another on their own and it was so funny.
A little late but would you expand on the Bulwark Giant comment around 31:40?
I had bidet in Brazil. In Canada it is hard to have one :/
The line for the last play of game 3 was to Capsize Faceless Butcher in the attack step, and do Mist Raven/Ephemerate shenanigans to stabilize. Or maybe just have it bounce the specter, trade with Wakedancer and use the Ephemerate on Archeomancer.
Rewatching old vids and these Month 1 covid memories
Another Pauper Cube Draft! Woooohooo :D
Came for the draft, stayed for the bidet discussion
Do you follow the slatestarcodex blog?
I'm not really sure what that is
@@CalebGannon It's a blog that sometimes talks about AI and AI risk. A good blog.
Great content, as always
LMAO that Bidet discussion, just after I decided to get a High-tech Bidet+Dryer+Cup-holder Toilet. Now I feel vindicated for spending so much exclusively on not having to wipe my butt.
woah you got a cup holder on that thing? thats intense. Next step is to motorize it I suppose
@@CalebGannon Good idea, no need to get up if you want to refill your drink while on the toilet if you can just drive to the fridge
This deck is so good... I wanna build an EDH deck around it
I’ve never seen blue be so open in my life

Bounce tribal? I love it!
As a Computer Engineering major with AI minor I would like to hear more about your script to edit videos
I will be making a whole second channel to discuss that stuff, but I gotta graduate first :p
@@CalebGannon exciting :O go graduate!!

the best editing is the editing that nobody notices ;)
Don't believe Caleb, I too am from the US. Spinach does not come in boxes!!!

Hey been enjoying the content! I personally have a compromised immune system from heart surgery as an infant so I feel yuh. Stay inside stay well
sorry to hear that! hope you can stay safe too!
Phelddagrif is my favorite commander too :)
anyone else imagine a paper clip robot battling it out trying to figure out how to get more iron competing with a stapler robot
I love phelddagrif and I have a feeling i'd love playing EDH with you
Wait are you a UofA student?
Is Caleb building Skynet?
is ur code open source :0
Ah going back 10 months to watch the covid talk
I'm finding myself spending a loooot more time in the house. Do you have any sort of streaming schedule?

was that you? I'm sorry! I don't stream much haha so it's hard to keep up with it all
He must of been distracted by my name right after yours haha!

I think all mtg youtubers should use your program to edit! Like reid duke i like everyone elses loves reid, but his videos last 4 hours!!

Are you allergic to lands in this format or do they just suck or what's the deal here?
just some bad luck mostly, magic gods are trying to give the opponents a chance ;p
You could not lost the last game, why did you do that?

just missed it. Its not super easy for me to play at 100% while streaming since I don't do it often
