@TheRUclipsUser69 right lol. Commander is purely for having fun with people while playing magic. I dont know anyone that calls it skill or whatever. Its all playing fun/powerful stuff. Its not aggro jund with toxic mites(to just show one constructed answer).
I know, all the damage calcs and the free summon hurt as I made the same mistake. The guy who helped build my first decent deck drilled that into me... black white annointed procession zombie horde... still my fav deck
@@davidkindle7944grave titan and lord of the undead are zombies in 2005 lords and lord effects were given their creature type they boost and commander 2014 confirmed grave titan is a zombie giant
I really like that they keep the recently played cards on screen. I'm pretty new, so being able to read the cards without having to pause every 3 seconds is great!
@@robnorman5183 nah that one has since been updated and is a zombie; however Grave Titan definitely is not, and it would've made a lot of difference this game unfortunately.
@@AraAraAraAraAraAraAraAraAra I think grave Titan only attacked on the last swing and not sure if that power mattered to kill the professor. But yea the whole rooftop storm for grave Titan is the biggest misplay that would’ve changed the outcome of the game lol
Not that it was egregious either, but Matt was doing Lightfoot Rogue wrong as well. You only add the single box that your die roll falls in, not every single box before it as well.
I love the goofy editing mixed with the kinda scuffed gameplay cuz it makes it feel more like I’m hanging with the bois playing magic than some other shows. I also love shuffle up and play so this collaboration was perfect.
Really nice job with the edit, especially leaving the cards on the screen that the previous players played, incredibly useful. And no other commander channel really does that
38:57, this is actually incorrect, but the reasoning the judge makes aligns with what we've been doing for all the other similar effects in the game. Sefris must be on the battlefield for the "when one or more creature cards [...]" to trigger, and if Sefris is destroyed with all other creatures, it does *not* trigger (because it looks for cards not creatures). This is noted in the Rulings section on Oracle.
I’ve been teaching a friend how to play mtg the past couple of months. Watching people relatively new to the game fall in love with it is something that will truly never get old 😊
Ive been watching commander videos for years. And finally finding more channels that play at least a little competitive is such a great watch. It teaches how to use the stack properly and how some cards work in ways you haven't thought of. And Prof will always be one of my favorites
Charlie has reached the ultimate game. I'm so, so glad he is in this space now. We just need Posty to come back for the ultimate game's ultimate collaboration.
Another rule mishap that I didn't see mentioned yet: @38:43 Sefris asks for creature cards being put into the graveyard from anywhere, this is different from a leaves-the-battlefield ability. Because of this, she needs to be on the board when other creature cards hit the graveyard, it won't trigger when she leaves the battlefield at the same time as other creatures.
Part of what I like about watching you guys play is catching the misplays. Wish I could get out and play commander with a chill group of friends like this.
Adding block constructed cards to a correlating deck usually makes it more fun. Hence the haha. But it works better with cards from that block. Lots of room for fun interactions. Especially with immovable rod.
Saw Charlie was on TCC the other day, was hoping he would come visit the guys here too. And great to see Professor a bit more relaxed. Great video boys.
Been following for a long, long time and I absolutely love the recent surge of passion for Magic from the gang and I'd love to find myself slinging cards one day at an event!
25:38 bit of advice for people you can swords to plowshare at the beginning of combat before attackers are declared but after the first main phase is exited so people can't reequip their equipments.
By default, that is what happens if a player says they are going to combat. Unless the player casting the spell explicitly states they are casting it during the main phase, it is assumed it is being cast at the beginning of combat, which would prevent the player from continuing their main phase. But it's nice that it's also legal to let him stay in the main phase, to give him a break. Even if he knew he could prevent Matt from equipping, I think he was happy to let him re-equip, to soften the blow of losing his commander.
I love seeing the prof all over my RUclips feed. It’s so weird that I only found out about prof when him and Rudy were playing with some vintage magic decks like forever ago.
I love seeing charlie in the magic community, as someone who used to play very lightly and just played casually now he makes me want to get reintroduced and find people to play seriously with like this!

Casting that [[Grave Titan]] at 19:16 for zero mana kind of warped the game, but overall that was a fun game. Also liked the chill vibes a lot compared to some other EDH content creators that are faster paced with non-stop hysterical chatter back and forth, will definitely watch more of your games if they're as relaxed as this one!
@@SnipingDragoit’s a replacement cost, it’s 0 instead of 4 and 2 black so he doesn’t have to pay any black. If it was legal that is, cause grave titan isn’t a zombie lol
Congratulations, you are the 1.000.000th player that thinks Grave Titan is a Zombie. You win sass from a commentor on RUclips. 🥳 What really cracked me up was the close up on the card image and even the editor didn't realize. 😂
6:50 So I like how he says it doesn't matter. Because spindowns have the same odds, it doesn't matter what order they're in. Of all the takes MTG players have this is the only one that bugs me because it's ignoring basic math. I've been a DM for a while now. I truly don't care which one you use, because they both have the same odds.
The guys are fresh to the game and these are rookie mistakes. Just glad y'all are having fun, rules will get better with time. Had a great time watching.
Good game! A suggestion for Charlie: try to cast instants and abilities as late as possible on your opponent's turns instead of your own, especially if you can't do anything meaningful that turn anyway. Not only can this surprise them, but also protect you against discard/removal etc. It's also always better to act when you have more information.
"Thrun, Breaker of Silence - get fucked" I've always wanted this from Prof.
The Thrunderdome is back
was like a magic spell lmao
timestamp?
@@kyleolsen3305 1:29
Now we just need to hear him say it uncensored about Lord of Atlantis.
Prof being nice watching all the misplays and not saying anything but definitely screaming in his head "READING THE CARD EXPLAINS THE CARD"
I'll agree to that. Why be a party pooper and ruin the fun. I've definitely been on the other end, just killing vibes lol
@@MrMADMADHATTER1because then when later you realise you only won because of a mistake you feel like you didn’t deserve the win

props to prof for not coming in with the, respectfully, "Um, actually" when calcing the damage on the final hit. he just rolled with it.
maybe you need a professor so you can spell shit right
Charlie is such an addition to the commander content community. As are the rest of you. Welcome and thank you for bringing more players to the game.
Before anyone says anything I’m not talking about the professor lol

I like big production magic but, this is a good time as well. still has good production value but, it's not sanitised so much.
casting grave titan for free is how zombie decks work. BRING THE SHOCK COLLARS
We want shock collars back!
Round 2 baybeeeee
Really nice job with the edit, especially leaving the cards on the screen that the previous players played, incredibly useful. And no other commander channel really does that
Love hearing Prof curse. It's like learning that your teacher is a real person and not just a robot they unplug at the end of the day
When I was teaching I once got scolded for saying damn. I was like “for real? Damnnnn”
Charlie playing West Tek Tyrant as if it was a zombie. Bring out the shock collar.
Prof using his time to plug other creators was top notch.

Gotta love how wholesome the Prof is at the end shouting out some of the other channels he works with to get them some views!
@7:51 Charlie should be at 34. Lose 2 life from Vamp Tutor, 2 life for Godless Shrine, and lose another 2 for using Ancient Tomb.
Lmao
it's okay man lmao
he posted about it😭

Prof of all people being one of the first Magic content creators to play with someone as big as Charlie makes me so happy.
Love seeing the prof and Charlie in two back to back guest features
Hearing the Professor curse and it not be Emrakul'd was fun. :)
Also, a class act giving shout outs to basically everyone but himself.
I can see why you made a shock collar episode, and I would like more of it. There were so many misplays happened but still a fun game to watch!

youve got my sub! never heard of this channel until now after seeing the game with Charlie on TCC

IT’S THE COLLAB OF ALL COLLABS
"He spoke in riddle and I said "Okay"" is life, man.
Edits on this are great tbh, game was easy to follow and funny to watch
All this dope collaborations in mtg, this is the brightest timeline
Prof on big deck energy? My first video, already subbed. Nice
Idk how I've missed this channel, but im here now. Lol. These 3 are great! So was that grave titan. 😉😅
What an awesome collab. Certainly not one I ever thought I'd see
I haven’t even started the video yet, but I’m definitely excited to see the big deck energy the prof gives off
That went from father and son to lovers really quickly! Wild.
It's great to see Charlie featuring small time creators like The Professor on his channel.
i love the chemistry on the table, and i love the professor. The crossover i did not know i needed
I always love seeing Prof on other channels so I can hear him say things like 'accord' and 'game actions'.
No one catching Charlie not taking his 2 life for that tutor is the real play of the game 😂
casting a giant for free off rooftop storm was way more outrgeous
@@beliffywu5804he's a giant. Who's gonna tell him that he can't come out for free, really? He'd stomp on a fool.

Free scofflaw Grave Titan absolutely tipped it because it was also having huge attack bonuses and death touch illegally applied to it.
Bro put radiant solar in his graveyard. A combo piece for him to go infinite.
This game was so intense imo, loved every moment of it! Can't wait for more MTG and DnD coming into the channel!

Grave Titan is a giant not a zombie so charlie couldn’t have played it for 0 :(
Low energy prof is pretty awesome actually:) hes just vibing with everyone and chilling haha i think he doesnt feel the pressure to host
I think having charlie not read as ragebait has been a good call the engagement is insane
I never thought anything with the Prof in it would be unwatchable. And yet!
Thank you so much for giving me my fix after the Tolarian vid, godbless you
