    Totally just discovered this. I like it. Nice chemistry between players, relatively clean editing, and all for a good cause(s). I hope you folks keep producing more content! Also, is no-one going to mention the fact that in Tappy's "beach party" deck, her Atraxa has been altered to be wearing a sun dress, hat, and has a beach ball? That is absolutely fantastic!

    Should the Mirage Mirror copying the Gaea’s Cradle @ 12:00 by Ellie cause the Mirror or original Cradle to be sacked to the Legendary Rule? It looks like it did not affect the game really so no biggie! Ellie had a lot of other stuff going on already.

      Yes, she could replay the cradle from the grave the next turn so really wouldn't change the game, but it could have been a pretty serious misplay if someone had any graveyard exiling cards.

    • @ElizabethSuomy

      While she could replay the cradle the dark depth token was also legendary. It would have also needed to be sacrificed. 🤭🤭🤭 it was still a lot of fun though.

    • @variant-cover

    • @Uberzooka
      @Uberzooka 3 года назад +2

      Yep, the gitrog was way ahead for so long, could have easily crushed everyone but instead just ramped and drew and slow rolled, kinda painful to watch a player being so passive with such a strong lead.

    Great potential! Love the atmosphere and editing. Great job highlighting whose turn it is really helps understanding the flow. The power level has been mentioned and rightfully so. Two games in a row where the same person wins playing decks who’s power level was much greater than the table. A lot of gameplay mistakes (legends rule twice, creating extra tokens, missing proliferate.) Excited for things to hopefully smooth out in the upcoming matches

Apparently, Olivia I still have a lot to learn from you. I'm still in Team Elle's camp though because she has been playing my favorite decks so far!

    Awesome content and as I'm sure you're aware, this was a bit one sided for deck power level. A show I enjoy "I hate your deck" pushes for having pregame discussion on deck power levels and each player should bring 2-3 decks of various power levels so the table can match. Having strong decks isn't bad, only when they are significantly stronger than the rest at the table. Can't wait to see more of this, glad I found your channel. Also, to charity!!
