Not to be too crushing but editing!!!!

I mean come on Mr.Orange can do it. (Evan)

But if your going to show matchs in such a manner try and spice it up cause your like and this guy does this....

Well dah were watching.

Your not telling us why this play is better than that play or whatever.

Like when i am watching just plain matchs, the thing i like is text commenting on screen and a music back ground with all of the mind numbing stuff take out like tapping mana ect.

[fivewithflores]

You're absolutely right.

Please forgive me as this was my first video.

I think you'll find that the Berlin preview of All-in Red is light years better than this one.

[whydoesthismatter]

Im new to magic but I thought if you countered someones spell that they recieved damage due to mana burn. For example the first demigod countered would have resulted in the rdw player being at 15 life

[fivewithflores]

That is not true. The opponent used all the mana in pool (five) to summon the Demigod; ergo there is no mana in his pool left to burn him even if the spell is countered.

Why did you not counter that demigod of revenge with your cryptic command? Did you just draw it?

[fivewithflores]

Hi benc512,

Thanks for your question.

I assume you are talking about the 2d Demigod of Revenge (not the one that met Remove Soul and not the one that killed me).

I think it is better to let the Demigod resolve and bring the other into play, then tap all the monsters with Cryptic Command + draw. If the plan is to Wrath all, tapping all and drawing is better than countering and drawing (or countering and tapping) because you take the same amount of damage either way (0) but get one more card.

[MJtheKandyman]

its a sort of thing he uses to describe a game. phase 1 is wen players cant play their spells efficiently. phase 3 is wen 1 player has near total control of the board and the win is imminent. phase 2 is everything in between

[dwasdwas1]

Kinda a noob to magic terminology, what are

Phase II and Phase III?

[brodys3232]

why did you play the second demi? You had leathal anyway. If they killeed creature then who cares. They will have to wrath o matter what! he second demi is the ace right? You had them at 7 with 2nd mode figure boggart and tattermunge right? Thats 7.
