The Magic Show #162 - Pro Tour: Austin Part 1

[MagnaLynx21]

Jerry Thompson was a douche even back then, people like him would easily turn me away from MTG -.-

[scarred50]

"I'm just going to have to play beat-down in all formats" Famous last words of Chapin before worldwake was released XD

[CoasterphansCubes]

Cedric didn't win Kyoto! (:

Nice episode.

[Ballinlolz]

I was always confused about how conely lost on turn one to dredge, NOW I KNOW. Its because even put the wrong sphinx in the picture ;D

[Military21Wife]

yeah this is were i live yeah austin

[panteraxchick]

whats up fam juggalette here on youtube woop woop. i have no fam so send me a shout and show some love

[randal1231]

I'm sorry, Zendikar is an awful set. Type 2 is not what it used to be. Stop covering up the fact that WOTC is only making these new sets so terrible to draw in simple minded, new players. I used to think that it would take a lot to kill this game, now, I'm not so sure?

[TeddyFilmz]

well do you think Ravnica was a good block? That was like THE best Block ever, I started on Oddessy and I am still playing. Im sick of it now after two months of drafting

[Zuul030]

Heh. I played Mark Rosewater at the Xbox Magic game during the PT. I beat him with the Red deck VS the green deck 19 to 0 :D

I got a fetch land out of my Zendikar free pack.

[SepteraDogma]

XD "I got beat by the kid that had to read Dark Depths..."

Ouch. At least he was man enough to admit it. I'm sorry, I'm still laughing at imagining a kid reading Dark Depths for the first time, lol...

[me1337je]

Haha, GarryT you're the man :)

[brianflayer]

is this a standard tournament?

[tubagiant89]

It was Extended.

Also, I met Cedric at GP Chicago, and he is definitely a cool guy.

[TrueValandor]

It was 10 rounds of extended and 6 rounds of zendikar draft.

[Seizurema]

GerryT you've obviously never played in a NJ/NY/PA 9-round 300+ person PTQ

[followthereefer]

Please use better music

[rebtad]

MTGO does crash. It crashes on me often.

[artrocker65]

Patrick Chapin may be Evan's best buddy and such, but come on, he doesn't deserve to take some much time.

[coledash]

It would be understandable if MTGO would been launched a few months ago, but its been like this for several years. Yeah, theres been upgrades (and downgrades) but it still sucks.

And Im not even complaining about WotC being greedy, but plain STUPID! They are just "losing" a hell amounts of money and not to even mention image.

But it is the MTG we love, online. But why do you need to torture us so much?

[coledash]

Great episode again!

About MTGO: Of course we complain, we are CUSTOMERS! We pay for it and want it to get better. And honestly, its soon year 2010 and the client still looks like its from the last millenium!

And its not just about the looks, the overall quality is... Horrible. I have a bunch of friens who play MTG, but they arent even thinking about starting to play MTGO after seeing all the troubles Ive had in past years.

[wingman264]

chapin's a faggit

[edgewalker18]

That was unnecessary.

[Accolade83]

omg my friends have a nix collection too...

[rmgustaf]

Good episode!

[WickedDealer]

I know I would enjoy Chapin's Counterspell variant. I sorta doubt it would be made until next block cause if they don't wait until then I would be super pissed at Wizards.

[Ponder52]

you couldnt find them because my friends horde them have a pile of like 180 nixes 15 foil i think

[Predator9710]

I suck... im sorry T-T

[pudgimelon]

It's so cool watching your vids and seeing Rob and other old friends from back in the day still puttering around the scene like gnarled war veterans. "Well, I remember when I was your age, I had to walk my Necropotence uphill in the snow, both ways!"

[RitalinKID12]

Its so fun seeing people you know on the show. Either its a small world or I play entirely to much magic.

[pudgimelon]

It's a small world. When I went to the tournament center in Japan AGES ago, they had pictures of one of the Japanese pros playing Darwin Kastle, and I was like, "Darwin! Duuuuude, you're famous!" Hahah.

Glad to see YMG is still represent'n. Hopefully they're still kicking Neutral Ground's ass too!

[mstainz]

chapin just likes to talk.

[MiracleOverloading]

Lulz.

I AM terrible XP

That was a lot of fun.

[kong0lol]

I am terrable.... thanks garry

[Msv8090]

I love Magic: The Gathering. Great game.

[ktomes2001]

wow gabe has lost some weight.

[taro589]

is chapin serious about what he is saying?

[Jdoss19]

great video keep them comming

[durangoislaw]

Gerry Thompson yet again running his mouth.

[Kozakpoland]

11.02 - 12.23 Count the number of "like" he says.

[Psychatog101]

maybe he like it ? :-)

[CHAOSBLACKDOOM]

almost 30. I did lose count though. But Conley is a beast. LEAVE CONLEY ALONE!!! lol, jk.

[Enfeeblement]

Was a great episode!!!

[jmorrow22]

I remember playing Matt Place for moxes back in 1994.

[serenades666]

wow MaRo has a high voice O_O

[spa9876]

patrick chapin is freakin awesome. He alone makes the pro tour fun and hilarious

[doomtomb3]

Is Patrick Chapin a homosexual?

[blithium]

Hopefully! xD

[Seizurema]

Frank Karsten?! Hell. Yes.

[GreelTheMindRaker]

Can't wait for the next, this one was well worth the wait!

[undercoverlucky]

Thanks Evan, I watched this on my PSP to and from school today ^^

You've got another regular watcher.

~Lucky

[blaze12g]

Great Show!

[manashark]

MTGO for Mac !

[Scarecrow5507]

This show is so fantastic. Thank you so much for continuing to make these.

[thecalmiceman]

OMG I used to read MaRo's articles as if he was a solemn, wise father-figure of this game I love. Now I know he's just another erratic nerd. Quite disappointing.

[Ballinlolz]

wow i love pat chapin + foo fighters

[EddDeedoo]

great show once again i like the long shows.

[cowwell50]

great show! this is what it's all about. player commentary! try to keep developer commentary low though. great show thx evan!

[tedbratton]

he lost to the kid who had to read dark depths LOL thats so ridiculously funny

[Technoguru21]

Your mama got hit by a train and you lost to the kid that had to read dark depths hahaha

[jdthom6]

[KilliaK]

Pure awesomeness :D

[Shatta69]

i though chapin was gonna say im going back to my old profession xD

[eidolon232]

Really nice episode!

+ interesting preview for the next episode

[Paulwallsux]

I bet Gerry liked being on his knees with Patrick on his back.

[nathones]

amazing show

[DanielHoward777]

man i can't wait til i'm older so i can go to these protours :) i hope magic is still as awsome then as it is now

[secretspy1]

you can go at any age to the pt if your parents sign a permission slip. instead of giving you the plane ticket (if you win a ptq) they will give you cash equivilent.

[LordEdge19]

Love Rosewater playing Xbox xD and Chapin playing beatdown is one of the sign of the apocalyps!

[jairomy]

Nice Cedric won a PT?

[locustkillr]

Best . Magic Show. Ever.

Really nicely done Evan

[lewis493]

good episode

[MrFreak0r]

since i waited so long for this i'm a little disappointed with this episode.

instead of showing what the magic "VIPs" think of random stuff like overhyped lotus cobra it would have been nice to show what decks have been interesting in the PT.

[manudosde]

That's what the (extensive) official coverage is for. The beauty of this show is how it gives you an insight of the player-related aspects of the game. I personally find this edition especially good.

[secretspy1]

maby its in the next one bishh

[proffessors]

Excellent show Evan and I'm sure Cedric will be happy to find out he actually won Pro Tour Kyoto lol.

[wolfv22]

i don't know whats going down in world wake... but prosper is whats got my eye... still no set name released... its kinda odd, they normally say something by now... we may get the set after 2011 before prosper at this rate...

[PocketUnv]

I can really see how this would take forever to edit. Great job.

[CTastic1]

Kibbler: "It must not be too combo orientated when I have Baneslayers in my deck."

"Oh wait I have a punishing fire combo in my deck?"

Dah?

[finalstand12]

"you watching this right now you are terrible,but everybody else sucks too so you still have a chance" good old Gerry lol

[FNM09playa]

Wonder whats going to be in worldwake

[CTastic1]

Probably some kind of land kicker like, if you played a land this turn, this card is kicked. Or something a long those lines.

[jvdthwip]

Kicker without costs. :D

The next spell you play this turn is kicked.

Traps that get kicked instead of costing less.

Sac ~: Kick target spell.

O man, I can't wait to see what it is...

[YoshiOfADown]

Twenty thumbs up for GerryT's Magic Online message

[GuitarJoker71]

Cedric Phillips cracks me up lmao

[tarmogoyf333]

Does anyone else notice that brain kiblers head is floating at 4:12?

[SnigernDK]

Sorry for sounding really studpid, but i cant hear what the dude with the blue hair is saying at 17:50 what are the two cards he is speaking of?

[damanjeff7]

Tarmogoyf

Wild Nacatl

[FreshmanThesis]

I used to detest Gerry, but slowly (soooo slowly) he's grown on me.

[superdumgator]

Chapin. You have shocked me with your beatdown comment. >.> Come back to the dark side. Blue awaits you....

[jwmints]

"i lost to a kid who had to read dark depths"

lol

funniest part of the show

[Pizzarrhea]

Antoine Ruel looks just like Osyp in this video

[scrixie]

Those cliff hangers at the end make me mad ...they do their job -_-

[3sstudent]

thanks for another awesome show!

[JordanJacksonAh]

mindless null cant be good anywhere....

[FreshmanThesis]

It's sideboard tech, in case you need to lose a matchup. :D

[PsychoticPorcupine]

Good Show this week Erwin, hope next video's editing is less troublesome than this weeks.

[AwesomeMcSweetKool]

Very awesome. Thanks.

[tsinivla]

Good show!!

[MrTentacleMonster]

awesome show again!
