[ipiercyx]

why is kanis running mana barbs in his SB. there is better options than manabarbs

[ColonelHayden]

@ipiercyx Don't see you at the quarterfinals. *ahem*

[ipiercyx]

@ColonelHayden yet

[SuperSoft01]

thank you wizards for the great uploads!

[dalexj]

but, lostanclclueless, why not just use terramorific expanse if you want to do landfall?

[KunkSmash]

Dual color fetch lands bring land into play UNTAPPED, allowing you to landfall and then use that mana for any responses you might have.

[johnnythefallen]

@dalexj They come in untapped, they thin your deck, they trigger landfall twice, they allow you to choose from two different colors depending on you need, and they make Knight of the Reliquary happy. Did I mention they come in untapped?

[MalikarVampire]

the 1 life is worth getting the right mana

[DANCSINY]

@MalikarVampire yeah but in the "Red Deck Wins" deck there are also 4 Scalding Tarn and 4 Arid Mesa...

[lostanclclueless]

@dalexj fetches works well with land fall, and it also removes cards from your deck, giving you a better chance of drawing better cards (aka top decking)

[dalexj]

why do people use fetch lands? They are just as goos as basic lands, bet they are super expensive, you lose a life, and it makes you 1 card closer to decking out.

[furbymeat]

@dalexj they are just as good as dual lands you mean i can find either land i want and righ when i need it

as for terramorphic the land enters tapped

as for loss of life its one life whopdedoo

as for landfall who uses the landfall mechanic anyway its only steppe lynx and lotus cobra i think in this tournament

also its an extra land in the grave yard for knight of the reliquary

also it thins out your deck

theres a reason cards are priced the way they areits becasue people want them, capitalsim

[Naglfar52]

Thousands? Try millions.

I want the lyrics to the song/s at the end.

[Jammy192]

Man im getting so pissed off with players shuffeling their hands like 50 times!!!!

[TehChaps]

Yeah but now im starting to do it too and its even more annoying

[dauboi]

lol, i love the commentary uber geeky but really good!

[LauwereysM]

@dauboi I like this game, it it popular? and where can i learn it???

[dauboi]

@LauwereysM Yeah quite popular, thousands of people play it, you'd have to go to a local store i imagine..

[ELECTROSAL]

Go Jeroen!

[wolfv22]

the new guy sucks... thats all that needs to be said, i will give him time to get better before i say anything too much more... but they are Creatures, not monsters...

[rla117]

lol the guy corrected himself "agayn" to again- they must be telling him to speak more like a nuetral accent

[Cloakblade]

Is it just me or is the quality just terrible.

[zenex57]

the reduce thequality so it can be put on youtube otherwse it wouldnt fit.

[St0n13]

Kanis hes not gone he'll come back stronger!:D

keep it up and you be da real nr1! :)

[sandman423]

I like how the announcer explains some of the rulings I have been looking for like Raging Ravine Keeps Counters

[inthepants117]

i thought it was kind of obvious that it keep counters on?

[balinor2020]

last game is amazing.

[SilverMasK7]

NIce opening!

Jeroen Kanis he's an amazing player!

Trully a multitalented guy :P He's my table tennis Rival!

[tgva8889]

Last game that Kanis loses, he should have unearthed Hellspark rather than playing Hell's Thunder. If LSV doesn't do anything he'll lose, if he just blocks Kanis has the Searing Blaze for the win, if he attempts to use a Fetchland Kanis has Searing Blaze for the win.

[balinor2020]

@tgva8889 but canis didnt have the land, did he?

[tgva8889]

LSV was at 2. He would have died if he just dealt 1 extra damage, since LSV used Fetchlands.

[balinor2020]

@tgva8889 thats kanis sry

[flarkfucky]

this is like 24 pixel fidelity. please upgrade your camera wizards!

[esauofrensfal]

More people who don't know how youtube works.

It takes a few hours after the uploading of the video for video to be quality.

[ashiinu37]

In the second game of LSV vs. Kanis, the turn that Kanis unearthed Hell's Thunder, he should have just shipped the turn back. That way, when LSV attacks and gains life up to 7, he can return Punishing Fire, recast it (LSV - 5), cast Searing Blaze (LSV - 4), untap on his own turn and unearth the Hell's Thunder for the win.

This works barring LSV going Plains, Baneslayer after his attack (in which case, Kanis has pretty much lost anyway).

[iLITTER]

i would PEE in his deck box

[strigen]

wow, these games are cloooose.

[mystik4289]

MtG needs to sponsor an artist for a new Pro Tour intro song... this one's cheesy as f***

[darkf1are]

this is cool

[KilliaK]

Absolutely,
