Ben Brode playing Skullbriar but constantly arguing against Commander damage is certainly a choice. A hilarious one, in fact.
I respect the grind, honestly.
Can't believe Ben Brode's commander eliminated 2 people with commander damage
It makes sense though, it cuts off his fun. Making Skullbriar any bigger than a 21/21 feels less than ideal.
I mean I totally see the mentality that it invalidates the life total, I feel that way about infect
I guess I just think commander damage has a cool personal element and serves as a build around mechanic that makes the game more combat focused which I think is overall fun and cool
@@lfwalrusI also like it as an out against lifegain. Without commander damage as a threat it can feel like a heavy lifegain deck just invalidates combat as a wincon.
*sees thumbnail* : oh nice, it's commander at home
*sees Ben Brode* : OH NICE, IT'S COMMANDER AT HOME
Real
Honestly, this is the quietest I've ever seen him. I was shocked.
His voice booms naturally. It's kinda amazing.
Same reaction lol.
Yes
My favourite part was Ben proclaiming "see, commander damage did not matter, just like it does in any commander game" before passing the turn and then having commander damage matter immediately. The sheer amount of delicious irony was palpable
When Ben screamed “THE WAY GOD INTENDED!” I spat out my drink fast and I haven’t laughed that hard in a very long time.
40:45 - 40:57 So it can be found quickly again for whenever someone needs a laugh
Doings gods work @@TokuHer0
MTG content with Ben has a 100% chance of contagious laughter in it and I love it
Thanks for the content y'all bring us ❤️
Big facts
I LOVE his laugh, so goooooooood
Oh god, I almost died when Chris did the thing to Ben that I'm not going to spoil.
Ben Brode's fervent attitude towards rhystic study and inexplicably hatred of Commander damage alongside all of the needling and prophetic visions from Olivia make this such a charming game, was a very fun watch
Watching Ben lose his sanity over commander damage and Rhystic Study triggers is just hilarious
Olivia torturing Ben with commander damage and not paying the one is one of the funniest things in any of these episodes
I dunno Chris stealing Skullbriar to kill him with commander is the best.
"By the transitive property of paying the one..."
This might be the best episode of all time.
Watching Ben have to kill people with commander dmg is an oddly satisfying conclusion to his anti-commander dmg campaign.
Ben DYING to commander damage from his own commander is a million times better
that was the greatest outplay magic has ever seen imo. the manipulation, then allowing him to proc his lifelink first @@owenrobinson5031
Id like to thank Ben for making Hearthstone. I learned English because of his creation :)
Ben Brode playing? I wonder if they'll play with Commander damage...
Such a joy to see Chris Kluwe and having that fun play to take out Ben. Cant stop laughing from this episode, best one yet.
Best one yet.
Literally my thoughts every new episode.
This game was nothing but amazing. The rage of Ben, the wittiness of Brian, the slight jabs of Olivia and the steady but funny build up of Chris was just masterful and truly what Commander literally at home is all about.
The pain Ben suffers from people not paying for Rhystic Study is the most relatable feeling I've had with any Commander UA-cam show. Every pod I play, I am the one pulling my hair out when I feel like I'm the only one trying to keep the tithe and study in-check.
Hard same.
The constant reminder of commander damage to torment Ben? *chef's kiss*
And deliberately not paying the one? Olivia embodies the chaos I want to achieve as a commander player!
*Seeing Kibler and Ben in the same video* this is going to be 90% laugh tracks, and I’m here for it
Seeing Brian get mana screwed finally in a game renews my faith in humanity and RNG.
My wife says “fucking same”. I stg he has the best RNG ever to mankind and seeing 1 game where they dont edit content out and letting plays be the plays is tge best
@@lunalemay1153 I mean I don’t know if they’re doing all that.
Glad to have Ben "Dies to Commander Damage" Brode on! It's been a while since he sang about Un'goro.
Another episode with Ben??? Umm, YES PLEASE!
Ben dying to his own commander's commander dmg is the cherry on top! Right after the moment he realizes it...
This is, without a doubt, the greatest game of Magic that i have ever witnessed. To see Ben Brode, the man who hates Commander Damage more than any other person in the entire world, killed, with Commander Damage, WITH HIS OWN COMMANDER.
I see Ben Brode I click watch
So many great moments, can't remember laughing that much in a while. Olivia constantly picking on Ben by not paying 1, Brian declaring no blocks to die to commander damage, Ben conceding, and of course, Chris's genius evil plan paying off. Best episode yet!
No spoilers in the comments! Lol
If your commander game doesn't use commander damage rules, its just sparkling canadian highlander.
So much fun to watch. Its amazing to see 4 people who genuinely love the game and love playing cards with each other. I love that Chris goes completely under the radar.
Not drawing land for over five turns and through multiple Rhystic triggers does that
You know it will be an amazing and loud episode when both Ben Brode and Brian Kibler are in it
Ben's face when he realized he was going to die from his own creature; mine hurts from laughing.
Commander At Home has genuinely become my Commander channel. Thank you for the genuine humour and vibes.
I get so pumped when I see a new commander at home video
After winning a game against a deck that was at a triple digit life total, I believe in Commander Damage
As a certified Commander Damage Hater, I think there is a place for it, and I understand why it's 21 (the original Elder Dragons were all 7 power so it was three unblocked attacks), but this game, while hilarious, was honestly a good example of why having it be below the starting life total seems ... off. The number needs to exist, but even if (in keeping the original spirit) it was 21 damage AND combat damage on three different turns, it would eliminate some of the feels bad moments that Voltron style decks can bring.
@@jklharris As time and design marches forward that certainly makes sense to me.
@@jklharris Hard disagree, there is so much removal in the game these days that can easily deal with voltron, and ton to shut down a commander focused deck.
21 commander dmg is fine, the argument for infect being more than 10 though i give some weight.
@@EkkosUwUumm you know they can give there commander Protection from all colors and indestructible easily
@@Dark-Pikachu1 Umm you know they can be made to sacrifice creatures, mass exile effects exist, Cyclonic Rift exists, Toxic Deluge exists, and Shadowspear exists, right?
Love the production, the guests and the gameplay every episode. One of my favorite commander gameplay channels. Keep it up!
Glad you enjoy it!
Ben Brode's laugh is something I think we all need more of. Love it every time!
Welcome to Commander at Home where every now and then we see how many times we can trigger Ben Brode in a game.
Chris Kluwe is the man. Always happy with more nerdy Chris Kluwe content in my feeds!
"You sure do live in Orange County" made me spit my drink out.
I saw that Merieke play coming and I was SHAKING with anticipation, and it delivered, 200%. This was so, so fun.
Watching this is so much fun. You all are having so much fun and it shows. You have me laughing with you. So much joy!
This might be one of the funniest episodes yet lmfaoo😂
It's my favorite!
After watching the dice roll and the fun times leading up to it, I knew this was going to be a joy to watch. Thank you as always for the amazing content. You always manage to really capture the spirit of MtG. Fun with friends, and sometimes nefarious deeds that either succeed or fail brilliantly. Please keep being you and doing what you are doing!
I love how oko sits there, like the dapper young gentleman he is,
but every so often is staring at you both just thinking 'GIVE ME STROKES'
Wait. Chris did *what?* He not only is the reason I play Magic (shoutout Spellslingers) but he did that against Elon? I love him even more!
Not all heroes wear capes.
I love spellslingers!! I’m sad it was all but dropped!
It looks like Ben Brode has lost some weight since he was a HS dev
Lowkey looks a lot happier and healthier
ngl i'd be happy too if my new project became one of the best earning mobile card games in the market.
49:40 is the start of something awesome
It's so much fun whenever Ben is on the show, great threat assessment I must say.
I saw Ben Brode in the title, this episode is gonna be a banger
The hearthstone world is gonna miss you for ever, your contagious laugh always gonna warm up my soul
So thrilled I found Commander at Home! ❤ I'm not the most experienced mtg player, but this show really captures the joy of playing games with your friends
Always happy to see a new episode of Commander Damage at Home.
Yay new episode 🥰 look forward to watching this when I get home. Just know it'll be full of vibes and laughter ❤
One of the best commander shows for sure keep it up guys!
The people who say Olivia can't manage her triggers should watch this masterpiece of Triggering Ben. ;)
Thanks for a glorious piece of entertainment. ;)
These episodes always make me chuckle out loud!
Bens laugh is infectious. Love to see him on again.
Love the vibe the videos you guys put out. Reminds me of the things I loved about magic in the first place.
So many great souls in this amazing episode. Love and laughter in your lives and thank you for such amazing content. Also Ben, if you ever read this, marvel snap has given me so much enjoyment while dealing with cancer, thank you for the gift that is you and the rest of the amazing people at second dinner!
Thank you guy’s for this show it makes me happy 😊
Man, this group is a fucking riot!😂 Ben is such a fun guy, his laugh is so contagious! I love him to bits!
I'm really loving this show more and more with each episode; the memes, the casual play style, the "who gives a shit, let's just have fun playing magic" mentality, it's all so great to see.
Thanks for all that yinz do, this is such a fantastic group of people!
hey guys just wanted you to know that i rarely have anyone to play with and just your intro alone gives me all the nostalgia that magic should be. thanks you guys this show is so good
At 20:20 Kibler we don’t believe you’ve never seen that card!!
Hahaha love the channel! Religiously share and watch every episode! Love y’all!
Honestly, if someone told me half of your subscribers signed up just for the earworm, 'lives in my brain rent free' opening music you use, it would not shock me. 😁💚🎶 Love watching you guys.
I have not been able to play paper magic in close to 20 years. You guys are amazing! keep up the good work.
Ben Brode sitting in the nearer seat makes me feel like I'm in the twilight zone
ben and chris are so funny amazing episode thank you
I watched every week from the start of the channel, then went on hiatus, this is the start of my catch up comments. You guys all rock! Best gameplay channel ❤
What an amazing game! Had me in stitches at the commander damage!
The intro and just total vibe of this show is literally the best. I don’t play mtg so I rarely know what’s going on, but I have so much fun watching anyway
Peak episode of Season 1 so far! I died from Commander Damage from laughing so hard. Bless your souls and thank you for everything!!
The deck Chris is running is the whole reason I came to this video. Always looking for new tech for my version of her
I love this show so much. It’s fun and goofy while still respecting its audience by understanding that we don’t need cards like Steve or swiftfoot boots read out loud
Bonus points for Olivia’s just pure Goblin energy half of the time here.
Fantastic fun and the usual Commander craziness!
I'm happy to know the commander damage bit is still alive and kicking!
I see Ben Brode and I click the video. That man’s laugh is infectious
the most fun. Funniest game of commander I've ever seen. Loved it!
Love the channel love the upgrades can’t wait to see more
Let’s go baby!!! Fastest growing MTG UA-cam channel!
I was so excited when I saw that pop up and 20 minutes in and it’s hilarious.
No Olivia, you're not trying to Chaos, you are *doing* Chaos! I've also been known to go really really low on lands in some decks, iirc I have two that are under 30, and neither is a cEDH deck (but both are Green decks, so both run a LOT of ramp).
I recently used Scavenged Brawler on a Brash Taunter... it was a very, very good little synergy to discover, all those ability synergize with him also being indestructible to just gain so much life. I think building a gladiator type deck around cards that often work together is very fun, but it's also a challenge.
In my Burn deck I once had a DRC out and two lands and dug through some 20 cards without finding a single land. The deck runs 20 lands. It was agony. I think I went through 2 DRCs, but it might have been 3, just churning through my top deck and finding turd and after turd. I wish I was as salt-free as you guys when I draw garbage!
I’m successfully getting my wife more and more into mtg it does help that she loves Brian and Olivia’s dogs lol
First off i would like to say i have been loving the content you guys have been providing. Looking forward to the future videos you guys make. Secondly, to Miss Olivia, I am sorry that A) i stepped on your costume, which was amazing, at the one vendor upstairs. and B) i didnt recognize you at first and just wanted to say hi to you and Brian. Keep up the good work guys :D
Ben so insistent on not dying to commander damage from his own commander that he just concedes is legendary lol
I follow and love each Kibler and Brode since years and now I found out that they play commander together! whoooaa
One of the best episodes yet!
We have a house rule that you can only scoop at sorcery speed, so for commander at OUR home, the pain of dying to his own commander damage would have been unavoidable lol.
All thought I think it should be fair if there taking too long to kill you
ame back from the clutch three times on MTG Arena lol, once 1 life vs 24 life opponent (Best game ever BTW) ... , another had 9 poison counters, barely won, and the last 1 life and dude quit at 7 life lol. got pics to show... never give up folks! I Hate that he died before I could play him in a game. Thank You Shelden Menery for bringing us commander.
Cool that Chris Kluwe was on the show. I think it is great to see athletes play MTG. Very awesome, keep up the great work Brian and Olivia.
My favourite episode so far, mostly because of all of the rage from Ben but also because of how much everyone looked like they were having fun together.
Always a joy actually watching Ben Brode play commander, he’s a good time
What a great and fun game! Hilarious! Thanks!!😂
Fun rule fact I didn't know until recently myself. Quoting 302.6.: "A creature's activated ability with the tap symbol or the untap symbol in its activation cost can't be activated unless the creature has been under its controller's control continuously since their most recent turn began. A creature can't attack unless it has been under its controller's control continuously since their most recent turn began."
Meaning, when Merieke steals the commander at @53:40, the commander stolen will gain summoning sickness. Luckily, he got boots to equip to still be able to swing that turn. But very relevant rule for that commander, amongst other cards with similar effect. Without boots, would have made a big difference.
@53:55 one can actually scoop whenever to prevent your opponent to get something like life from lifelink. It is considered a D**k move however, so glad he got the life.
"You're filling his Super meter" 😂😂😂😂😂
10:40 for a great freeze frame of both the doges derping on Brian's lap. lol
Keep fighting the good fight Brode, you're 100% right about commander damage!
Wish I had a house like that to play with friends like you, nice videos btw guys
"I have the gift of prophecy" - Olivia
While also bringing Chaos to the entire game.
This must be my favorite episode and favorite guests ^ ^
21:36 That is the face of a man experiencing some strong WoW flashbacks.
This was the most unhinged game I’ve seen in years. Bravo
I love the vibe Ben brings when he plays with yall. Such a joy. And how ironic he's playing a commander that deals commander damage 😂
Even with the early salt and sadness , y’all are always laughing and having a great time, which is the true spirit of commander. Catch y’all on the flippity !
Heck yeah the new commander at home drop
