  • LIES!!! i counted like 3 females in the vault. how can it be just dudes!!

  • ROFL nobody plays Captain Sissay, Sharum, or Omnath as an EDH General. Riggghhttttt......

  • whoever here likes trading magic the gathering cards, come check out my channel if you havent already heard my name passed around the trading circuit or maybe didnt even know that trading was going on :)

  • Flip cards were rather annoying, but they make more sense than anything else suggested.

  • doran is pretty popular in commander

  • I would have to disagree on the "never see them as generals. Just in my area I played a Sharuum deck, my friends had a Rafiq, Kresh, and a Doran deck, and we met up with some new guys who had an Ulamog, Progenitus, and Teferi. To be honest I found it kind of funny all of those were picked in the set.

  • Ahhhhh...Brad wants to talk more? So he can say "like" another hundred times? Really? No just be silent, because like(it's actual usage)it's been said many  people already...you two have said very little of anything that is really relevant. Get out from in front of the camera and start making segments with depth and very relevant information.

  • I've always thought of the two-player cycle of turns in Magic to be night and day. I would use the analogy in teaching new players if it didn't sound so much like an excerpt from a bizarre pre-school lecture:

    "See, when you Untap your creatures, they're ready for a new day. But first they need to brush their teeth and get dressed in the Upkeep step...." etc.

  • What are you talking about people don't use these as commanders...? Sharum, Kiki-Jiki, Kresh, and Rafiq are bombs. Oona and Captain Sisay are also pretty solid.

    I understand you guys don't play EDH, but at least try to do a bit of research before commenting on the cards. :P

  • Legendary Enchantments ?

    So...None of those.

  • @DjFiremind all of the hondens

  • Commander is for people who like to suck balls

  • The editing..that like bad. Really bad. Feels like senteces are split in the middle and there is no sign of smoothness or flow.

  • Is it me or does that guy have hickies on his neck? O.o

  • hey u know what i think is that they should reprint sharkan vos with 2 plus abiltys and one 0 ablity that makes him a 8/7 dragon with flying thats still a planswalker and after innastrand and the other one they should make a new eldrazi epansion cos they diddent finish it

  • @allstuffco You sir, are a retard.

  • People do use Progenitus as their commander, I've seen a deck using him in fact, it was pretty brutal the other 3 decks didn't seem like they stood a chance.

  • Brad you are simply wrong about commanders I know people to play progenitus, rafiq, definitely Doran, and definitely Kresh, definitely Sharuum.

  • The "Tapping the cards so you dont have to". Is that a referene to Ze Frank? Ive always wondered.

  • @tzheihoh Yes it is! :D The Show was my biggest influence.

  • @mrorangeguy Hey, kind sir. Could you please explain sideboard to me, since i'm a dummy? Thank you for your time.

  • @Zspear234 Sure. Constructed decks are 60 card minimum, w 15 card sideboards. You play a 3 game set for a Match (player who wins 2 games wins the match); During Games 2 & 3, you may switch out any 15 cards with the cards in your sideboard. There are also cards that can fetch cards from sideboards to your hand, like Burning Wish (the entire Wish cycle, in fact). In limited, you have a 40 card minimum deck, and every card you don't use (drafting or sealed) is your sideboard and can be subbed in.

  • @mrorangeguy Nice! Thanks a lot!

  • @mrorangeguy Hey Evan,

    About Spawnsire of Ulamog. Can he grab all eldrazi out of your sideboard and put then into play or only exiled cards(because they changed "remove from game" to "exile")

  • Cao Cao is not actually pronounced "Cow-Cow". The C is pronounced with an S sound in Chinese. Just my twitchy nitpick.

  • My friend uses rafiq as his commander. It's super aggro and is very efficient in 1v1s.

  • @geck1204 the thing you gotta think of is that commander is built more for multiplayer games. rafiq would still be a decent commander in that situation but not nearly as good

  • You didn't like Wayne Reynolds artwork?

  • Brad knows like nothing about Commander.

  • The Rafiq will see alot of general play, but that art isn't good at all lol.

  • Sun Khuan and Khao Khao, and they made fun of asians speaking engrish lol.

  • I feel like the trend lately has been much less prep/work and more "hey so-and-so what do you think about X"

  • @Pringlesman then why even bother coming out with these anymore? WotC needs to either A) Allow FTV to print reserve list cards again, within reason, or B) CHANGE THE REPRINT POLICY. There are many cards that really shouldn't be on the list. I understand the Power 9, Bazaar, Library, etc., but why the dual lands? Why put legacy staples on the reserve list? The reserve list is slowly killing a format because of the guarantee that the cards you need to play the format wont be reprinted

  • much that you lost since the older episodes, I rewatch a lot of them just to analyse and compare the good stuff to now, and it isn't pretty. It's your show but there is little soul left in the videos. like I said: too much filler and not enought relevant serious analyses.

  • @Jukren54

    You mean he now wised up instead of talking like an over aged "/B/tard".

  • sorry Evan, you transformed Mtg coverage, and we all appreciate that. But now channelfireball has transcended the Magic Show on so many levels with so much more depth.

    I will keep watching in the hopes that the content improves or at least gets serious again. The show is 95% jokes now and too much hyperbole. The message got lost somewhere and I think you need to find it again if you really want to satisfy your viewers. There is too

  • Kresh is super popular commander, progenitus has a decent following also, kiki-jikki while not a commander is in every commander deck that uses red almost all of the others are popular in commander decks that use their color and the 2 # kingdom reprints are impossible to find at reasonable prices due to short supply and Sun Quan is stupid powerful and i expect to be banned at least as a general if not altogether.

  • Werewolves could be flip cards, like those Kamigawa legends. At the beginning of your upkeep, flip the werewolf. You play it as a human.

  • @IslandLimer Totally agree. Bring back flip cards. Either have the flip happen during your upkeep, OR for some have another condition, like when it's dealt damage, or when you lose life, etc. I love the idea of a common creature for G, that flips between a 1/1 human and a 2/2 wolf during your upkeeps. That would be sweet, ESPECIALLY if they have an enchantment like Tempered Steel called "Full Moon" where Wolf creatures you control get +2/+2.

  • Question - I haven't played magic in about 10 years, the last set I bought cards from was odyssey. I want to get back into paper magic... what's a good way to start? The cards are so much more powerful than they were 10 years ago. I was thinking of getting the 2012 Event deck illusionary might, bc blue has always been my favorite, and that seems like a good deck to build off of...

  • @royalal I found that the best way to get back into the game is to go buy the "Deck Builders Toolkit." It comes in a card box with some nice artwork on the outside, a BUNCH of randomly sorted T2 common/uncommons, a ton of basic lands, and 3 booster packs from the current core set and expansion block. You should be able to make about about 2-3 decks out of it and still have quite a few cards leftover. Its only $20 which is far better than blowing $15 for a single deck that you only get 2 colors.

  • Oona and Doran should have new art, and omnath is not so ground breaking that it needs to be in a vault set

  • mmm dont like sitting chatting mode, do like image macros and decklists

  • Hey hey hey, hold the phone now. Doran is my commander general. He's fair. Dropping a 5/5 on turn 2 is okay. :P and really, the WGB wedge that he fills is loaded with creatures that can abuse the crap out of his powers. :)

  • The popping during the outro is really annoying.

  • Did Evan get a Trogdor neck tattoo?

  • FTV: Legends is VERY disappointing. Albeit its obvious that Legendary creatures would be in this, but... what about other legendary permanents? I know the Jitte was in FTV: Relics, so it makes sense not to have it this. I think it would have been great to have cards like Gaea's Cradle or Tolarian Academy, stuff that's worth enough to be money, but not enough to be aparently "too expensive".

    If they want more casual favorites, how about Sliver Queen? Give me Cradle, Academy, and Queen and Im sold

  • @wittw

    Jitte actually wasn't in FTV: Relics

  • @MrSuikuden You're right about Jitte, my bad... must have confused it with Grand Prix promo foil.

  • @wittw Jitte wasn't in FTV: relics. Cradle, Queen, and Academy (Tolarian?) are on the reserved list. So they can't be printed.

    I agree that FTV:L was disapointed. There just isn't a huge draw to buy this product.

  • @Pringlesman You're right about Jitte, my bad... must have confused it with Grand Prix promo foil. The Reserve List argument makes no sense. Mox Diamond, Karn, and Memory Jar are all on the Reserve List, and they got printed in FTV: Relics. Isn't that whole point of "From the Vault"? They choose a couple of cards on the list to get a limited reprinting in a super-special-shiny style, so that we drool and empty our wallets for glittering awesome. I look at FTV: Legends and my mouth is dry. Sad...

  • @wittw after the debacle with printing Phyrexian Negator (a reserve list card) in Phyrexian vs Coalition Wotc announced that special promos and box sets like this would no longer be a safe haven for reprinting reserve list cards. So once again the reserve list screws us.

  • Here's an idea: get rid of evan and have brad host the show, that way we'll actually get content about magic and not just Evan LAUGHING AND INTERRUPTING EVERYTHING ANYONE ELSE EVER SAYS. Either that or put evan through broadcasting school so he actually knows how to do his job.

  • Mikeaus will be beast in the future! I have seen it.

  • Wow... this is boring. FTV: Legends is terrible. Omnath, Ulamog, Kresh, and anyone printed in Zendikar or the previous 2 years should not have been in this. Give us Legends that are at least 5+ years old. We don't need recent stuff. Just awful... Their "to expensive to reprint" policy is retarded. It is their game and WotC should be allowed to reprint whatever they want, whenever they want. And I love how everyone thinks the "unknown" cards from D12 are Innistrad previews. It's not 100% true.

  • Rafiq looks like the DD:KvD Knight of the reliquary

  • YAY! NO SHORT SHOWS!

  • "His breast plate really looks...breasty" *motions hands over breasts*

    epic criticism from Evan

  • The secondary market does nothing to WotC's discussions. Your argument is the same one that people used as to why Jace shouldn't be banned.

  • Rafiq is in space marine armor. heh

  • *YAWN*

  • I have a feeling that Innistrad will have werewolves, zampires and ghost types that will turn the human type into their own tribal type, will be called werewolve touch or vampire touch, and give either a buff or a negative to the human tribal card. Would be pretty cool, what you think?

  • @smit1000 it's a neat concept, not sure how changing sub types will make them better unless the humans have something like "all cards that share a type with this creature gain x"

  • Maybe give werewolves phasing.

  • Cao Cao is awesome. Just saying, and I've been hoping for him to be in the set since day 1.. I don't care what people say, I'll just call it "Cow Cow" just because that's how I pronounce my last name anywhozzle.Hell I'll just call it "Moo Moo" just 'cause that's my nickname :P

  • This EP gives the illusion that no magic players ever have sex

  • Release the DW7 Fans to correct you. It can be pronounced either way guys just chill -.-

  • @AuronV3 what's DW7 ?

  • what happened to your neck evan?

  • @chamorroguy777 werewolf almost had him.

  • 1:11

  • Cow Cow, Lord of Wei. I cringed. It's supposed to be pronounced 'tsao tsao'.

  • you two seem like bffs

  • They put that guy giving Hormanship to all your creatures? That's basically the same as "unblockable". Which is very gay. Why in the love of fuck would they want people to play with this??? Another "un-fun" general...

  • It's now "cow-cow" by the way. It's an S sound, not a C.

  • Lol. Brad Nelson has no idea what he's talking about if he isn't playing Standard

  • legends has too much alara

  • hey evan, when do you think spoilers will start for Innistrad? :D

  • Brad Nelson was better when he was with Channel Fireball.

  • 1:11

  • Obviously you don't play a lot of Commander, Brad, coz roughly two thirds of the FTV legends are really common generals :/

  • Why. Just why. WHY did you have to ruin the new Rafiq for me.

  • awesome episode

  • I suspect that they didn't include the portal card because it has a keyword that isn't in current use and an ability with very wierd timing. Before you attack is a strange trigger, and would likely be confusing. But horsemanship... frankly I don't even remember what that does right now. I doubt that decision had anything to do with money, but had a lot more to do with the design of the card itself.

  • @avancouvering definitely not why they didnt print it, since the one gives all your creatures horsemanship

  • I've seen half of those Legends played as Generals. Oona is probably the best mill general. Played against Teferi yesterday (annoying). Captain Sisay is a fantastic general. Sharuum is played in Artifact combo decks. Kiki-Jiki rocks the red agro enters the battlefield trigger guys. Omnath fuels a big green mana deck. Doran makes a neat touhness and toolbox deck. Kresh is a one man army with a deck focused on killing creatures left and right. And Sun Quan is going to be a terror.

  • Brad, you're like awesome, but like you could you like try to like not say 'like' like all the time? ... Like.

    But seriously. If you're ever going to be doing more public speaking, you *need* some coaching.

  • Great show, guys! Can you find better video coverage of the latest in Magic: the Gathering? I think not.

  • I love brads comment on planeswalkers really wish they could make them almost exclusively (except maybe ultimate abilities) affect creatures rather than players. Just feel they would be more fun if they interact with the board rather than players.

  • his breast plate looks really....... breasty.........

  • captain sissy

  • Awesome show

  • people should stop hating on Liliana Vess shes good in EDH sorry cant call it commander...just use her for her tutor. she might not be good for brads level of play. but mine were i go to a buddys house and sling cardboard.

  • this show should be live! :D

  • i was in the will call line for like 30 min and i got mine bc i got there early

  • Hey Evan, i thought Doran was originally named Doran The Big Ol' Tree

  • i love that like 1/3 of the stuff in the opening doesnt even pertain to the game lol

  • Uhhh Reassembling Skeleton is still good.

  • Yay, br is awesome is so is evan, thanks again for another great video mr. erwin

  • Damn I want that Sharuum, it look super sexy.

    

  • But Dark Confidant is good just because he is one of the best creatures ever printed.

  • edit much

  • I saw brad in person at gen con and he emits the douche bag aura just like Cedric Phillips

  • Brad has never seen any of these as commanders? I've seen like all but 3 of them as commanders.

  • @MDukeBlue And one of the 3 haven't been printed yet.

  • wait evan's upset they didn't print a $150 card in a $30 set?? yeah i'm sure the people who actually owned that card would be super happy when their values dropped by 80+%.

  • hahaha you are so cute together ;D

  • I wanted uril damn it

  • I kind of miss the "I'm (pro player name). Welcome to the Magic Show." before the opening title.

  • Yo, have you always had that awesome-looking scar thing on your neck?

  • @Glace077 It's a birthmark. Google "Port Wine Stain"

  • @mrorangeguy tell em to google gorbachev instead

  • @mrorangeguy

    People ask about it all the time... you should start saying it's a Katana scar. People unpolite enought to ask that shouldn't be rewarded with a serious answer :P

  • @mrorangeguy Thank you, sir.

  • how can '' this is too expensive'' be an argument for wizard, it's not as if they were selling the cards, they sell boosters, if it was up up to me i'd cut the middleman ( dealers ) and sell them directly to players, then the argument would be plausible

  • @mrorangeguy I remember you commentig the exact same thing like two years ago! im hardcore fan, i know...

  • @mrorangeguy Do you get tired of having to answer that every time? One time you should just say, I got it in 'Nam.

  • @mrorangeguy Could lie and said you survived a bear attack just for lols. Just becarefull with it.

  • @mrorangeguy

    I thought you were recently burned when I first saw it.

  • @mrorangeguy That thing is awesome. I want one.

  • @mrorangeguy If comes up again you just have to tell them it's from the time you fought five guys at once and someone glassed you or some stupid story that will shut them up for awile.

  • @mrorangeguy should consider switching places with Brad

  • @mrorangeguy lol put a link to the Port Wine Stain wiki in the beginning of each show =P

  • @Glace077 Evan destroyed a pack of wolves that were drinking Port wine, like a boss.

  • @Glace077 i was going to ask the same thing

  • @Glace077 They tried to slit his throat and it was the last mistake they ever made!
