I dont think you understand how much I needed this video. For 10 years I have been looking up Magic beginner videos, and none of them have been this clear and concise.
Bro you've been a beginner for a decade?
@@JAMmanprobably for showing friends or other new players
This is well done, my only feedback would be putting chapters in the video. I'm not sure if it's possible to do that retroactively, but as the video has discrete segments in it, chapters would allow a player to quickly reference a section they don't remember, or easily find parts relevant to them.
iirc all they'd have to do to retroactively add chapters is put the segments with timestamps in the description
anyone else subconsciously watch this video even though they've been playing magic for years?
Yep. 😂
I did by purpose watch it. It helps me explain the game to new players more easy. Tip i got from this video. Do not add too much info at once. Thanks.
Ya, no idea why tho 😂 this thing is 45 mins long...
Yes ! Me lol 😂
yes
As a noob, this is an intimidating game so this was so so helpful
This is brilliant, well done to the team. It's SO hard to create an intro that is both simple *and* not misleading. Clearly this script was painstakingly crafted. I wish I'd had this when I started playing! I also want to call out the fabulous Spellslingers series that Day[9] hosted, which is still among the best beginner intros around, and would be a great follow-on from this.
Shoot it took me like 9 years to learn as I lived in the country and had no internet back then to get answers lol.
This was actually really good timing, I have a friend that recently wanted to learn and another friend that hasn't played in 6 years.
When I was young I played Yu-Gi-Oh! (I didn't know about Magic), and now in my 30s I went back to see how it was going and I didn't like what I saw, so I took a look at Magic and I really liked it, and everything around the game, and the community is awesome.
Brother.. I’m the exact same
My man!
I'm in the exact same situation but picking up magic I'm finding incredibly hard, confusing, and frustrating. Yugioh and Pokemon are so much easier
@@MannySimoneCardsdefinitely try Arena. It is excellent at teaching you the game
Same here!
Just picked up Magic again for the first time in over 17 years. There are so many forgotten memories unlocked in this one video. Thanks!
Starting card types by separating them into Land and everything else is a great point. While the word "spell" is everywhere on the text, new player might not understand what it is because it's not on the card types.
time for wizards to put muscle into learning new players the rules and how to play. GOOD!
Send this to someone you love and wanna share your favorite tcg
...or to someone you hate, they will lost all money and sanity
So glad this video exists! We just taught someone recently who we were able to share this with. Thank you all for making this so much to help them enjoy the game more while we aren’t there to help them directly. 👨👩👧👦
Thanks, thanks, thanks! this video explained everything i need to know in a very simple but complete way! Good job Magic, now i'm ready to battle!!
Trying to learn the game myself with my eldest. One of the most well laid out explanations on how to play! Well done!
Back in my day, we used these little mini booklets inserted in booster boxes to learn the rules. My first was Ice Age. It's nice that these tutorials are more available now thanks to socmed sites like this.
Alot more simple than I thought lol. Hearing it out loud is better than reading
44:53 Even in an intro video... Craig still manages to play poison
This is the best how to play video. I was confused about attacking/blocking worked with multiple creatures. 13:40 You explained it perfectly, thank you.
Great video on explaining how to play. Love the background scenes and sounds. Great stuff.
Thank you! As a new player, this video is the best tutorial which can teachs you in the basics. I learn a lot from it!
I’m new to MTG and though I knew a lot of this, I am so thankful for this video because it broke things down and made me understand why and how on things I even knew already. Thank you!
Thank you for the amazing amount of effort in explaining each and every step. The production quality as usual was flawless!
It was always difficult for me to get into magic so im happy this video came out recently!
This video is amazing! I have wanted to play for years but never found an easy way to learn.. this really helped! Thank you!
A video game shop has opened up near my house and they are planning magic events. Thank you for this video between this and magic arena I'm slowly teaching myself/understanding the game
Have Money, the end.
Growing up with yugioh i got a magic deck when i was in middle school surprised they play pretty similar( I know now that yugioh was inspired by magic) and read up on the rules in the guide book that came with said deck, but watching this vid yeah it clarified some things me and my brothers did wrong back then. Makes me want to get back into since yugioh is so messy and complicated now
Gotta teach new players, because those prices are losing you prior players.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I've recently returned to MTG and have a play group of beginners. This helps tremendously!
Just last week I bought my very first ever Magic cards in form of a starter kit.
This video was awesome for a rookie like me.
After playing MTG since 2007. There are still interactions in combat that I need to brush up on. Nobody plays perfectly. It’s also nice when Arena or MTGO takes care of the subtle nuances going through the phases of a turn. In real life, you have to take those into account and play the game the right way. I will watch this entire video later!
HELP!
I having been searching online for an hour and cannot find an answer.
How many copies of one specific card are you allowed to have in a deck?
Not counting cards that are basically identical but have a different name.
I haven't played in about 5 years, so this is pretty awesome to get back in.
Just getting into magic. Wow this video is extremely clear and super helpful. Thank you!
Me as a Yu-Gi-Oh player, am impressed to learn the rules and I think I'm gonna get in love with this game soon
Was completely lost before this video, brilliant thank you 😊
I've been playing magic for months and this video was still super useful to me! Thanks guys, really well made video 😁😁
Thank you for making this video. It makes me feel like I can learn mtg.
I show this video to anyone that says they want to learn to play, its perfect,
As a non player, I'm glad you made an updated How to Play video.
18:51 "But that's okay. You're still alive."
*Opponent plays Thassa's Oracle*
Thank you for this! This was awesome! I get it now!
Thank you sooooo much for a such detailed video for beginner - players! 👍👍
What I can appreciate about this is the fact that I always try explain everything at once (ie "excess damage does not spill over, except when ___)
27:29 Not gonna lie with JLK being the presenter I thought we were about to see a one mana counterspell from the opponent.😂
I really want to learn how to play magic and build decks but I feel too dumb lol
This helped my understanding more.
Best learning tutorial ever! Being a seasoned player I cant but appreciate your great effort. See all your skills and passion here so thank you!!
Will show this to my son, hes 12 and I have never manager to explain rules in such a clear and understandable way.
Btw, question for Josh: love your tshirts with magic rules Priest so where can I get some?
TIA
Jimmy with the vrondiss playmat one of my fav commanders
Perfect timing hasbro. The most expensive, over hyped magic set on the market is about to release. No better time to learn how to play. $$$$$$
I watched this whole video and not one mention of layers! How am I supposed to learn this game without that crucial knowledge!
I’ve been wanting to learn magic and this was very helpful. Thank you.
I just started a month ago, this helped a lot! Thanks guys!
This is so well done. Great work, and thanks!
You guys explained it supper well, thanks
Friend of mine has had 2 beginner decks sitting around for ages and its my task to learn for us :')
This video came about 4 months too late for me but you can never stop learning/ sharpening your skills
my goodness... BEST TUTORIAL EVER.. loved it :)
Great tutorial guys! I’ll be sharing it for sure!
So well made! I'll show this to my gf who's learning mtg
30:30 What to do on your turn quick recap review.
4:55 (Silver back Shaman comes up) and he goes "For instance, this big gorilla!" 😂
Love seeing Alpine Watchdog in the video. My favourite artwork - I have one pinned to the fridge :)
I would pay so much money to head the Command Zone crew teach me literally anything haha
THANKS THAT HELPED so much
This is perfect to help me get my son into magic 😁
This might be better broken into chapters for a playlist. Telling a new player to watch a 45 minute intro video is a hard sell 😅
Yeah I agree
They don’t have to watch it all in one sitting tho and they have the person who wants them to get into magic to teach em too
For the final example at the end: do you have to cast icy manipulator afyer your turn but before your opponents starts?
I just watched an entire video on how to play magic, even though I’ve been playing for a looooooong time lol. A good video indeed.
Yes, thank you! I now know how to play magic the gathering!
Now i can show everyone how i can suck at this game too🤣😂🤣😂🤣
0:25 ouch…
It’s ok it’s just cardboard
@@GeekWithMeat yes, i also like to slowly tear 10$ bills until they stop being useful as legal tender
Needed a good video to teach some friends
thank you sooo much so much help
Decided to give this a watch because i got the fallout cards
The last time I played this was in high school…so mid 90’s. But looking to get back into the game with my boys so this video was perfect to jog my fading memory! Plus, I’m more of a visual learner rather than reading an instruction manual. Great job on the video!
Will the commander crew be in vegas for magic con? Would love to get a few games with some of them.
This video is perfect!!

I bought me and my partner out first magic starter kits last week, next time we get together we’re gonna try to play eachother and get the hang of it, pretty exciting!
That's super exciting! Welcome to The Gathering!
THANK YOU 🙏
MTG: White color heals and protects
Me: I think I am gonna put 5 different board wipes in my White deck just in case
Now do layers, dependency and priority please!
I wish I had this when i learned
My wife has Covid and we are currently quarantining from each other so I’m taking these few days to learn how to play. I’ve always wanted to learn but never had time to pick it up. This video explained so much so clearly!
Hi Im back 1 hour later to say the MTG Arena app is complete trash and unplayable. It keeps glitching during the 2nd battle of the tutorial to the point where cards will freeze in random places. Theyll even freeze on top of each other and then I can’t select what’s underneath. What a huge disappointment because I was so excited to play 😢
The app works fine for me, sounds like the device you are using is the problem. Also, who still quarantines? 🤦♂️
UPDATE! I downloaded the app on my pixel and completed the tutorial, then went back to my iPad and now everything is fine. App is great on the iPad after the tutorial if people are experiencing the same issue.
Is there a commander version of this?
im new thanks bruh.
My wife while watching this video: "What's a Tu-tu?" (two / two)
ty
i cant wait to play
Question is there any like videos or websites that lets you play a rigged game, to like learn, say you bought a starter kit and want to learn more hands on but don't have anyone to play with, is there anything where you can play along with a video to learn all the basics hands on?
Can you imagine a video explaining all rules from cumulative upkeep to plot ... ?
Very Good...!
Love much duel master
I wanted to play the digital version of the game on my ipad but it’s not available in the Philippines 😢😢😢
40:15
I'm confused. She said one can use their Artifact to tap their opponent's card on their turn before combat so it can't attack you. But a few seconds later she says one cannot use Artifacts during their opponent's turn. Anyone know what I missed here?
You can't cast artifact spells from your hand on another person's turn, but you CAN use the abilities of artifacts which are already on the battlefield on other players turns.
@@JordanPridgen Ah, I see. That makes sense. So would one do that during their opponent's Main Phase or during their Combat Phase?
@@frogpaste you'd probably want to tap down their creature in their first main phase before their combat phase. Once they declare that the creature is attacking it's too late to tap it down!
Yeah that was badly worded
Im confused on how icy manipulator “taps down” a commando. I would think using it’s tap ability on a tapped commando would cause it to un-tap.
You said “activated abilities” can be used at any time (even an opponent’s turn) if you have the resources to use it, but the ability you showed was on an artifact, and a few seconds later you said artifacts can only be used on your turn during your main phases (and you showed the artifact card you just showed as an “activated ability”). So… can you use an activated ability from an artifact card at any time or only during your turn?
Artifacts can only be put onto the battlefield on your turn but the activated ability can be played on your opponent's turn.
Why does the first person not get to draw at the start like the second? By the end of the opponents first turn, they're already operating on one extra card than the starting player. Is that just the advantage of going second?
I believe it because player 1 gets the first land drop.
Oh wow. Been playing at the local MTG store... they taught me this game entirely wrong.
Não tenho conseguido entrar no jogo por causa do "erro de rede" alguém pode me ajudar ?
