I absolutely loved this story, it gave me the lore of the wanderer meanwhile being a very good short story, and bringing a super intense storyline with jin gataxis and tezzeret making the first phrexian planeswalker. I’m excited for whats to come!!
Tamiyo was my favourite PW, honestly teared up when her compleation was described. Especially since we know what the process of 'being compleated' exactly means and what it involves... i really hope they find a way to help her like Karn. I would not have cared about anyone else being compleated, but her ... broke my heart
The Shadow over Innistrad story implies that Tamiyo was possessed by Emrakul when the Imprisonment to the Moon happened. There was a faint residue impression of a thought in Tamiyos head afterwards about "it not being the right time" (this being Emrakuls thought), making it seem like Emrakul actually removed herself. I forgot who, I think Ugin maybe, made a prophecy once that a dire fate would befall the Multiverse if the Eldrazi were ever destroyed. These plot points give me an idea that Emrakul could become a big deus ex machina (deus ex luna?) at the end of the coming phyrexia plotline, with her being unleashed as the final "rescue" against the machine nightmares. It might be combined with some kind of revelation that the Eldrazi actually fulfill a kind of (un-)natural reset button role to the multiverses planes. Ulamog devouring all that is (removing status quo), followed by Kozilek changing all that is (creating potential for new existence) followed by Emrakul catalyzing growth (propel evolution of all that is). Although the last point is very shaky, seeing as Emrakul seems to change everything exclusively into a twisted reflection of herself. I think it would be an interesting plot constellation, underlining the enigmatic eldritch nature of Eldrazi, not being easily categorized as good or evil. I'm still rooting for the Phyrexians to have a strong run though, I want loads of inspired messed up machine body horror cards, they are one of my alltime favourite fictional horror factions.
Yawgmoth revives steel cage match with Emrakul then Urza outta nowhere with the steel chair. Let’s full send it, but seriously since the eldrazi fell phyrexia has leaked into almost every plane, coincidence?
Or we see emrakul be unleashed and compleated using the combined powers of phyrexian oil and cosmos elixir and given the propel evolution of emrakul the praetors could just have emrakul evolve planes into phyrexian/eldrazi monstrosities
As someone said to me in a reddit comment: "If their objective was to make them hate phyrexians to an audience that didn't know them before, they did it perfectly." Seeing the wholesomest, calmest planeswalker turned into their puppet makes me want to punch Jin in the face.
They also basically "erased" her connection to her actual family. From what it sounds like, she still *remembers* who she was before being compleated, but now she only cares about helping Phyrexia. That is what's got me pissed off, they forced one of the most successful planeswalkers (as in she has made and has *kept* a family that doesn't really get put in danger) to leave her family. I'm a family man, myself. I want the Phyrexians to burn >:(
Love that fact that MTG lore is back! Compleated Planeswalkers, Phyrexians, The Wanderer, Is Kaito going to join the gatewatch?, Can you purify a Compleated Planeswalker? So many questions haha I love it all!
This has been one of my favorite lore videos so far in terms of editing. Love the phyrexian voice for Jin-Gitaxias. I for one welcome our new machine overlords.
I also love the way he introduced tamyos -completion- with the breaks in the cards and the zoom in on the card pieces. It's like she was broken like the card, but now she is together!
Get ready all you mortals the dawn of a new era is almost upon us we will all be blessed the weak will be destroyed as her Majesty Elesh Norn said “The Gitaxians whisper among themselves of other worlds. If they exist, we must bring Phyrexia's magnificence to them." We will all reach compleation All Hail her Majesty Elesh Norn
Lol as soon as I read the epilogue today and then saw Tamiyo's card I was like "I HAVE to hear Aether Hub's take on this" IMPLICATIONS!!! SO MANY IMPLICATIONS!!
I have a feeling Tamiyo will retaliate against the Phyrexian, maybe even becoming key to their defeat in at least 1 mayor battle in the future stories.
Seiben! They killed Tamiyo! All she wanted to do was run her Planeswalker book club and collect stories! WHY MUST WIZARDS BE SO CRUEL?! But real talk, thanks for the awesome video. Godspeed, mate.
It bothered me more than I thought it would. We already lost Glissa and Ezuri, two noble, heroic spirits. Almost lost Karn too. Tamiyo is a family woman and a very relatable character.
@@AetherHub it's a heck of a punch. I've been wanting them to axe more Planeswalkers to give things some stakes, but it's brutal to see the first one in a while be such an unassuming, kind, minor one. Honestly, Tamiyo was part of the incredibly small club of "Planeswalkers who weren't ever responsible for a massive tragedy." RIP I really thought we would see the first Compleated Planeswalker in Koth, who had stayed behind on New Phyrexia, but dang. This hurts. I'm so torn between mourning Tamiyo and hoping that her "Compleated" mechanic means that wizards is going to cull the herd a bit.
I could totally see *war of tarkir* as a potential boiling point in the future with the khans and the dragons maybe teaming up to fight the phyrexians. Presumably, after more planeswalkers are compleated.
Maybe the fight culminates on Tarkir? Maybe Ugin and Bolas make some return from the Meditation Realm being connected to Tarkir somehow. They return at some crucial moment during the fight, may be wishful thinking. But i feel like Dominaria is definitely gonna continue the Phyrexian plot
@@pirateditly2105 Please don't. Bolas' only weakness was being so prideful that he didn't even consider he'd fail (aside from War of the Spark's shit writing) If the Phyrexians could oil that out of him, he'd be damn near unstoppable
Barrin also had a family. Then they were no more. And so he made Phyrexia pay while destroying himself and a part of Tolaria. Point being, Phyrexians know how to piss people off.
I also believe compleated Ashiok is a guarantee at this point. Ashiok went looking for phyrexia and knowing Ashiok, it wouldn't suprise me if he went through the compleation process willingly.
Just wanted to say thanks so much for doing this, family life being what it is I doubt I would have gotten around to the story for quite a while. (I listened to this vid while making dinner) thanks a bunch!
As someone mentioned, it's tragic that it is TAMIYO who is the first, and this certainly does set up Phyrexia as a multiverse-wide threat. As much as this turn of events is terrifying, I hope they let it develop for a while rather than the bizarre and hasty way they ended the Eldrazi and Nicol Bolas.
Man, this is one of the best lore stories I've heard in many years. Your narration makes it 20 times more exciting and entertaining. I love these videos! Thank you.
This story is incredibly compelling. I've been wanting a return to Kamigawa ever since the return to Ravnica was a thing. I'm highly anticipating the future storyline. We had Vorinclex on Kaldheim stealing sap from The World Tree which could be like the kami energy. Seems like we are headed for another War of the Spark style event in a few years.
Finally we see what the Phyrexians have been building to. I hope this leads to a new major story arch with the Phyrexians taking center stage. Long live Phyrexia, all shall be completed.
Personally, I really hope Tamiyo can at least, mentally and emotionally, be returned to her former self. I feel the reality chip is key. Afterall, it seemed it was just as important as a planeswalker to their plans. So, maybe the chip can be used to return Tamiyo to normal, maybe not her physical state, but the rest of her at least.
From what we know so far, there’s little hope for the Tamiyo we knew to return. However, Compleated individuals DO have a sense of self agency, and have even betrayed Phyrexia at times.
What the freaking heck, whats goin on?! Tamiyo's compleation took me by surprise. It's really sad. Will she be able to turn back to normal? I can only hope. I dare to say that I've never felt the stakes so high, not even in war of the spark. Things just got real! Btw the voiceover of Jin-Gitaxias was very cool 👍🏼
@@jazybomber I'm guessing the next couple of planeswalkers compleated will be existing villains. Ashiok learned about Phyrexia from poking around in Elspeth's head, and Tibalt had some weird seed thing jammed in him by Vorinclex, whom I doubt removed it when requested. Those two are likely next, imo. Alternatively, Wizards decides to go for the throat, and has Tamiyo lure Ajani into a trap and he gets compleated too. That'd fuckin' suck.
🤬'n fantastic!!! Just got done workin and got some food before a 40 min commute home.. you always make great videos, but this one was 10000% perfect timing 🤣 thank you
I like how they took the wanderer, my favorite planeswalker because of how messed up her spark is and made her even better with her being an actual kamigawa emperor. And I love kamigawa.
I mean, here's the thing. I feel like somehow it's all gonna tie back and Emrakul will inevitably be involved. Tamiyo was the one (although mind controlled by Emrakul) to trap the Titan in the moon. In some way I feel like that's gonna come back into play. Whether the Phyrexians want that to happen or not has yet to be seen.
@@ElChismo See, I kinda think the opposite. Tamiyo in a sense is a "key" to Emrakul. Although mind controlled, Tamiyo is the one who sealed Emrakul in the moon with a spell. So, it would be assumed she is the only one who can "release" that spell. Now, let's say all this Phyrexian stuff builds up into another "War of the Spark" scenario where all of the multiverse Planeswalkers battle the Phyrexians in an all out war, and let's say, they are looking as though they are gonna lose. What would you do? My thought process would be, "if we can't beat them, bring in something that can." Nahiri manipulated Emrakul to Innistrad, why not to New Phyrexia? Get Emy out of Innistrad's moon and drag her to New Phyrexianto wreak havoc. Kind of like a Thor Ragnarok moment. Thor couldn't beat Hel, but Surtur could. And he was simply a natural force, not necessarily a malicious being with malicious intent as Hel had. It's the same with Emrakul. Although also a world destroying monster, she is a natural being withing the multiverse. The Phyrexians seek to warp it to their will. I just think that maybe they want Tamiyo under teir control to avoid what would be a catastrophe to their plan (as a giant, world warping giant Lovecraftian being would be).
Emrakrul hinted that they would be rejoicing her return or that they should be and it was odd. Then proclaimed it is not time and forced Tamiyo to read her spell. She seen something and basically said I don't want to play right now.
it was only a matter of time til phiraxians would figure out how to make planeswalkers, especially since they lost Karn the first time. Honestly I think this is a good development as the steaks has been greatly risen. Nicol Bolas was a great threat to the multiverse, but so are the phiraxians. Before they were limited to one plane, then due to shinanigahns took over Mirroden, if i got that wrong my apologies I am fairly new to mtg lore. This definently rises the tension of the multiverse and will definently challenge the gatewatch and all other planeswalkers much like the war of the spark. But now planeswalkers will literally have no where to run anymore. They don't have the option to jump to a new plane and try to start a new life...if they keep jumping from plane after plane, a normal planeswalker would get exhausted....phiraxian planeswalkers however...they might not ever tire as they have become more machine than organic matter....Literally going full 'Terminator' at this point. I look forward to seeing what is to come.
Elesh Norn as a Phyrexian Planeswalker God They now have the technology to turn Planeswalkers from Kamigawa and the Cosmos Elixier from Kaldheim to make gods...this will be so epic! Can't wait to find out what the other Praetors will do to compleat their plans ^^
Great content, thank you. I would love if you showed more of the actual cards that portray the parts of the story you're describing. It's much easier to remember the key points that way and it's cool to see how the story impact is portrayed in the cards mechanics too. Which we missed out on in this video, but it was still great!
So just hoping we can get Tezzeret as the new father of machines across the multiverse, which ideally get invaded in constant losing battles for the next literal decade of mtg lore. I miss the old days.
This is a bigger turning point in MTG's lore than the War of the Spark. And hearing every japanese word/name being pronounced flawlessly was satisfying. Good work man!
Here's a jam that you may want to think about: if phyrexians blight the planes they're on, then that means we'll probably get phyrexian tainted planes we've already been to which hypes me up like crazy.
Very well done and always enjoy your fantastic lore videos. Some stories are better written than others (no fault to you) but you lay it out so well in a very well presented video. Can't wait for the next one and please continue your amazing work!!!

@@turtlebro0017 I am Really hoping for a Mechanical Body Horror vs Cosmic Eldritch Horror showdown set in the future where it turns out that Compleating Tamiyo was a massively bad choice because of her connections to Emrakrul. You get two themed sets. One like Shadows over Innistrad where there's hints something is wrong in New Phyrexia and the second is like Eldritch Moon where old Emmie shows up and shit goes south real fucking quick for the Phyrexians, honestly they could do with an L as the last few years they've been getting win after win.
I knew I should have not put Elesh Norn and Emrakul side by side on my desk a couple of days ago. Jin, you can Tamiyo's Compleation one of my fav planeswalker if it suits you, but please don't break my heart, my achy, breaky heart... Oops nevermind, my brain shifted for a sec
Very possible considering she sealed herself into the moon its likely that Eldrazi don't see time in the same way as we do and she foresaw the phyrexian and tamiyos involvement. Emrakul is very intelligent as seen with her conversations with Jace
Tamiyo is a very tragical character. Previously she was controlled by one of "Great Eldrazi", now she is phyrexian puppet. Furthermore, 1st Vorniclex in Kaladheim, now Jin-Gitaxian in Kamigawa suggest that we may get Phyrexian-focus expansion in the next year. Finally, don't forget that Tezzeret is working with Dimir guildmaster and they already gained Grull and Orzhov support.
Oh, I'm so torn on this! The fan in me is so crushed by this reveal. Tamiyo was one of my favorite Planeswalkers. Her magic associated with the power of storytelling is incredible and made for an interesting character. Her attempts to be completely neutral also raised a lot of ethical issues regarding the nature of Planeswalkers, which I think was needed for the lore. Also, she's one of the few Planeswalkers with a stable family life. It was hard to see the art for Tamiyo's Compleation without thinking about the pain both mentally and physically she is feeling in that moment. She had children for God's sake, why must you be so cruel? But the writer in me absolutely loves this twist. It's what the lore has been needing for a while. We needed something to make us feel, to raise the stakes, and to actually get us fans talking again about this story. It's been rough getting back into the story since War of the Spark, but this is finally starting to get interesting thanks to the Kamigawa story. I look forward to another era of good storytelling if this keeps up. I'm mad they killed my precious Planeswalker, but I can't wait to see what they do with this now.
This sets up a second war of the spark in a couple of years, a new gatewatch including a monored raging ajani, elspeth in white, a healed garruk led by jace vs tezzeret and his phyrexian minions tibalt and tamiyo.
So angry. I loved Tamiyo, and HATE Phyrexia. Makes me feel impotent since I have no control over where this story leads, but hope that some day there's a way to reverse this process and save her.
Bold move, good choice, it shakes up the story by a major mile. This means any Planeswalker is now at risk. Worse then death, servitude under corrupted mind is now not only possible, but as the “compleat” mechanic suggests, but recurrent
I think that Phyrexian planeswalkers are exactly what the current mtg story needed. There's a lot of potential to explore here in the coming conflicts and I'm excited to see how the events unfold
My question is.....which Planeswalkers do you think will be compleated next? Imagine if members of the Gatewatch start going missing and then we find out theyve been turned into Phyrexians.
You know, I kind of figured Tezzeret would be the first compleated Planeswalker considering he has no issues working with Phyrexians from the way it seems, he's already partially metal, has the Planar Bridge in his chest, and is a solidified antagonist of the series. Months ago I would have painted him as someone who would be the 3rd Father of Machines after Yawgmoth himself and an unwilling Karn.
I'll miss tamyo but hell yeah finally phyrexian planeswalkers the implication for the future are thrilling and im lookin firward to hear your thougths about this. And as always thank you for another great lession in lore ❤
Up until this point, planeswalkers and their sparks were untouchable by the Phyrexians - to me they felt like a beacon of hope in the fight against Phyrexia. But the compleation of Tamiyo was disturbing to me in that it shows no one is safe. Nowhere is safe. She is the first, but she won't be the last. Who'll be next? (Plus what'll become of Koth, who's pretty much fighting day and night within Phyrexia itself?) However, I really like how they wrote Kaito and the Wanderer. The animated Kamigawa trailer was beautiful. Here's hoping to see more of them!
I do have the feeling that this set is, for Glistening Oil Saga, like Aether Revolt for the Spark Saga. I mean that we eventually see more stuff like that, and more compleated planeswalkers, and probably the climax shall come in around two years.
So the reality chip is the cause of planeswalker being able to be compleated? It seem that it is able to interact with planewalker spark to stabilize it. Since Tamiyo has the chip in her when Jin start the conversion process. What will happen to the planewalker, if the chip is removed?
It really sucks that this wasnt a 2-3 set block, already 3 minutes in theres like 3-4 different groups that should represented in a set. Theres just so much going on in the set, it would be so cool if we could get more ninjas and samurai and such while still having as much if not more phyrexian representative cards.
I’m such an optimist but im REALLY hoping that this will turn into a weird emerkul saves the day spin. She warps stuff. phyrexians warp stuff. We know shes up to something… if only we could turn the two against each other. I get it, gut punches happen for a reason… but this us why i could never kill anyone in my stories XD i was the only one in college who didn’t enjoy the occasional character murder XD
I'm curious how the relationship between the Phyrexians and Tezzeret is. Do they see him as already compleat? Is he controlling them? Will they turn on him, infecting him.. and then with his powers he would truly be a force to recken with, especially on Phyrexia.
Tamiyo was my 2nd favorite walker :/ Wonder what the 3 forbidden scrolls are, and if they will actually be used against the Phyrexians instead... I always wondered about that scroll behind the Apocalypse Chime?
Thank you for scratching my itch with Kaito's pronunciation!! With the first Phyrexian Planeswalker running around now and hunting other Walkers to add to their army. Do you think they may call upon Nicol Bolas and Ugin once again to help fight against this new threat? On another note. How do you think the Phyrexians will fair against the Eldrazis? Both species are able to warp and recreate others into their liking.
You’re welcome. Thanks to you and others I was able to correct the pronunciation! Ugin possibly. But I’d take Phyrexia over Eldrazi. Phyrexia can actually plan better.
I'm going to see more phyrexian mana and synergies. They're clearly trying to fix it, and as long as it's still strong enough and can be used with, say, Phyrexian Rage Extractor, this is a good I have literally been waiting my entire Magic career for.
Damn... I know I said I wanted to see phyrexia return, but not this way... We already lost Venser to them, and now Tamiyo... They keep taking my favorite Planeswalkers. I really hope we get an Elspeth story with Tamiyo where she fights to free herself.
There is one record of such feat or at least very similar to it. But the price of such cure was that of the life of another planeswalker named Venser. Already severely wounded he did give up his spark (and thus sealed his fate) to cure the phyrexian poison from the mind and hearth of Karn, the planeswalker dubbed (and tainted) at that time by the phyrexians as their new Father of Machines.
So we have Jin-Gitaxias and Vorinclex. Which praetor will be the next to reveal themselves I wonder. I’d be quite interested to see a new iteration of Sheoldred.
Jin-Gitaxias HIMSELF joins me on this video. All will be compleated....

“The Gitaxians whisper among themselves of other worlds. If they exist, we must bring Phyrexia's magnificence to them."
We will all reach compleation
All Hail her Majesty
Elesh Norn
ALL HAIL ! Φ
I've always loved that quote :)
No xD
Lol as soon as I read the epilogue today and then saw Tamiyo's card I was like "I HAVE to hear Aether Hub's take on this"
IMPLICATIONS!!! SO MANY IMPLICATIONS!!
Oh dear, RIP Tamiyo. May the Praetor’s experiment backfire in the future.
But in all seriousness, this plot twist took me off guard!
It was really good!
I audibly GASPED when I saw the spoiler notification pop up on my phone
I have a feeling Tamiyo will retaliate against the Phyrexian, maybe even becoming key to their defeat in at least 1 mayor battle in the future stories.
Heresy! For the gløry of New Phyrexia all will be øne...all shall be compleat!
You just gotta love Phyrexia
Is there such thing as a Jin experiment that *doesn't* backfire?
Seiben! They killed Tamiyo! All she wanted to do was run her Planeswalker book club and collect stories! WHY MUST WIZARDS BE SO CRUEL?!
But real talk, thanks for the awesome video. Godspeed, mate.
It bothered me more than I thought it would. We already lost Glissa and Ezuri, two noble, heroic spirits. Almost lost Karn too. Tamiyo is a family woman and a very relatable character.
It was a gut wrencher. The first REAL memorable “death” in MTG since Gideon
@@AetherHub it's a heck of a punch. I've been wanting them to axe more Planeswalkers to give things some stakes, but it's brutal to see the first one in a while be such an unassuming, kind, minor one. Honestly, Tamiyo was part of the incredibly small club of "Planeswalkers who weren't ever responsible for a massive tragedy." RIP
I really thought we would see the first Compleated Planeswalker in Koth, who had stayed behind on New Phyrexia, but dang. This hurts. I'm so torn between mourning Tamiyo and hoping that her "Compleated" mechanic means that wizards is going to cull the herd a bit.
@@henryterhune8328 I bet Compleated is their way of balancing Phyrexian Mana so it can make a comeback in a future set.
@@donnylurch4207 I think you're probably right about that. Bring back Phyrexian mana, but with a bit more drawback this time.
Edit: fixed typo
I could totally see *war of tarkir* as a potential boiling point in the future with the khans and the dragons maybe teaming up to fight the phyrexians. Presumably, after more planeswalkers are compleated.
*MASSIVE GASP* COMPLEATED ELDER DRAGONS WOULD BE INSANE! I NEED!
Maybe the fight culminates on Tarkir? Maybe Ugin and Bolas make some return from the Meditation Realm being connected to Tarkir somehow. They return at some crucial moment during the fight, may be wishful thinking. But i feel like Dominaria is definitely gonna continue the Phyrexian plot
Wait nvm, its voverin Brother's War, forgot that bit
@@KokoLoko-km9ep Compleated Bolas
@@pirateditly2105 Please don't. Bolas' only weakness was being so prideful that he didn't even consider he'd fail (aside from War of the Spark's shit writing)
If the Phyrexians could oil that out of him, he'd be damn near unstoppable
SHE HAD A FAMILY!!!! A LOVING HUSBAND AND KIDS!!!!! I’m going to burn Phyrexia to the ground.
She continues to have a family, just cleansed from the impurities of the flesh. Soon it will be your family too
Her family will be Compleated
Barrin also had a family. Then they were no more. And so he made Phyrexia pay while destroying himself and a part of Tolaria. Point being, Phyrexians know how to piss people off.
Yes, we must resist these monstrosities. For the moon sage!
@@waifusandkaijus9574 you mean perfect beings?
This does not bare well for Tibalt. But I'm sure he's all for this since helping vorinclex on kaldheim. And just wait till we get Ashiok compleated.
A compleated Tibalt... I'm all in.
Ashiok has his own plans
True. Ashiok compleated would be a nightmare...
@@juliahenriques210 I see what you did there...
I also believe compleated Ashiok is a guarantee at this point. Ashiok went looking for phyrexia and knowing Ashiok, it wouldn't suprise me if he went through the compleation process willingly.
Just wanted to say thanks so much for doing this, family life being what it is I doubt I would have gotten around to the story for quite a while. (I listened to this vid while making dinner) thanks a bunch!
No problem. Glad you could still get the lore :)
As someone mentioned, it's tragic that it is TAMIYO who is the first, and this certainly does set up Phyrexia as a multiverse-wide threat. As much as this turn of events is terrifying, I hope they let it develop for a while rather than the bizarre and hasty way they ended the Eldrazi and Nicol Bolas.
Man, this is one of the best lore stories I've heard in many years. Your narration makes it 20 times more exciting and entertaining. I love these videos! Thank you.
This set truly hits home to reconnect Magic and its heroes and villains - LOVE the twist :)
This story is incredibly compelling. I've been wanting a return to Kamigawa ever since the return to Ravnica was a thing.
I'm highly anticipating the future storyline. We had Vorinclex on Kaldheim stealing sap from The World Tree which could be like the kami energy. Seems like we are headed for another War of the Spark style event in a few years.
2:57 even their art keeps them going further apart.
When reading I always imagined Jin Gitaxias less angry, but more calm, cold and emotionless. Loved it nonetheless. :)
Another GREAT job Seiben, I just adore those robotic voices you've been using for the Phyrexian Praetors!!
The news of Tamiyo broke my heart. She was my favorite
I'm finally taking time to dig into MTG's lore cuz a friend told me the recent set's lore is good. Glad these are up, really enjoying it.
Finally we see what the Phyrexians have been building to. I hope this leads to a new major story arch with the Phyrexians taking center stage. Long live Phyrexia, all shall be completed.
Personally, I really hope Tamiyo can at least, mentally and emotionally, be returned to her former self. I feel the reality chip is key. Afterall, it seemed it was just as important as a planeswalker to their plans. So, maybe the chip can be used to return Tamiyo to normal, maybe not her physical state, but the rest of her at least.
From what we know so far, there’s little hope for the Tamiyo we knew to return. However, Compleated individuals DO have a sense of self agency, and have even betrayed Phyrexia at times.
I dont, having an actual threat feels correct, and I would hate for it to be denied
I just like happy endings, so I'm gonna hold out hope
What the freaking heck, whats goin on?! Tamiyo's compleation took me by surprise. It's really sad. Will she be able to turn back to normal? I can only hope. I dare to say that I've never felt the stakes so high, not even in war of the spark. Things just got real!
Btw the voiceover of Jin-Gitaxias was very cool 👍🏼
Thank you 😊
I don't think she will ever be normal again, but here is hoping she regains her senses.
I want them to complete some more walkers
@@jazybomber I'm guessing the next couple of planeswalkers compleated will be existing villains. Ashiok learned about Phyrexia from poking around in Elspeth's head, and Tibalt had some weird seed thing jammed in him by Vorinclex, whom I doubt removed it when requested. Those two are likely next, imo.
Alternatively, Wizards decides to go for the throat, and has Tamiyo lure Ajani into a trap and he gets compleated too. That'd fuckin' suck.
@@christopherwilliams6848 pherexian ashiok will be soo cool
RIP TAMY
🤬'n fantastic!!! Just got done workin and got some food before a 40 min commute home.. you always make great videos, but this one was 10000% perfect timing 🤣 thank you
I like how they took the wanderer, my favorite planeswalker because of how messed up her spark is and made her even better with her being an actual kamigawa emperor. And I love kamigawa.
I mean, here's the thing. I feel like somehow it's all gonna tie back and Emrakul will inevitably be involved. Tamiyo was the one (although mind controlled by Emrakul) to trap the Titan in the moon. In some way I feel like that's gonna come back into play. Whether the Phyrexians want that to happen or not has yet to be seen.
Compleated Emrakul, phyrexian eldrazi. Sounds awesome
@@ElChismo See, I kinda think the opposite. Tamiyo in a sense is a "key" to Emrakul. Although mind controlled, Tamiyo is the one who sealed Emrakul in the moon with a spell. So, it would be assumed she is the only one who can "release" that spell.
Now, let's say all this Phyrexian stuff builds up into another "War of the Spark" scenario where all of the multiverse Planeswalkers battle the Phyrexians in an all out war, and let's say, they are looking as though they are gonna lose. What would you do? My thought process would be, "if we can't beat them, bring in something that can." Nahiri manipulated Emrakul to Innistrad, why not to New Phyrexia? Get Emy out of Innistrad's moon and drag her to New Phyrexianto wreak havoc. Kind of like a Thor Ragnarok moment. Thor couldn't beat Hel, but Surtur could. And he was simply a natural force, not necessarily a malicious being with malicious intent as Hel had.
It's the same with Emrakul. Although also a world destroying monster, she is a natural being withing the multiverse. The Phyrexians seek to warp it to their will.
I just think that maybe they want Tamiyo under teir control to avoid what would be a catastrophe to their plan (as a giant, world warping giant Lovecraftian being would be).
@@sethbrock5993 Emy mentioned that now wasn't the time to Jace too so she knew something about the future
Emrakrul hinted that they would be rejoicing her return or that they should be and it was odd. Then proclaimed it is not time and forced Tamiyo to read her spell. She seen something and basically said I don't want to play right now.
This whole video was amazing I’m so hyped for all the lore development 😁😁
Phyrexians are amazing. I'm converting a bunch of them for my D&D campaign.
Into fans of phyrexians or actual phyrexians? 🤣
it was only a matter of time til phiraxians would figure out how to make planeswalkers, especially since they lost Karn the first time.
Honestly I think this is a good development as the steaks has been greatly risen. Nicol Bolas was a great threat to the multiverse, but so are the phiraxians. Before they were limited to one plane, then due to shinanigahns took over Mirroden, if i got that wrong my apologies I am fairly new to mtg lore.
This definently rises the tension of the multiverse and will definently challenge the gatewatch and all other planeswalkers much like the war of the spark. But now planeswalkers will literally have no where to run anymore. They don't have the option to jump to a new plane and try to start a new life...if they keep jumping from plane after plane, a normal planeswalker would get exhausted....phiraxian planeswalkers however...they might not ever tire as they have become more machine than organic matter....Literally going full 'Terminator' at this point.
I look forward to seeing what is to come.
I "love" how we got whole story before the set is even released.. How I miss Blocks and story that went thru whole year...
This story is absolutely amazing it is obvious that there will be a Praetor planeswalker and we know very well that will be!!!!
Elesh Norn as a Phyrexian Planeswalker God
They now have the technology to turn Planeswalkers from Kamigawa and the Cosmos Elixier from Kaldheim to make gods...this will be so epic!
Can't wait to find out what the other Praetors will do to compleat their plans ^^
@@spacefreak5064 Elesh is soo fricking cool
Great content, thank you. I would love if you showed more of the actual cards that portray the parts of the story you're describing. It's much easier to remember the key points that way and it's cool to see how the story impact is portrayed in the cards mechanics too. Which we missed out on in this video, but it was still great!
So just hoping we can get Tezzeret as the new father of machines across the multiverse, which ideally get invaded in constant losing battles for the next literal decade of mtg lore. I miss the old days.
I didn’t think of Tez in that role before… inspired!
This is a bigger turning point in MTG's lore than the War of the Spark.
And hearing every japanese word/name being pronounced flawlessly was satisfying. Good work man!
The ending was absolutely amazing. What a cliff hanger for what is to come.
Here's a jam that you may want to think about: if phyrexians blight the planes they're on, then that means we'll probably get phyrexian tainted planes we've already been to which hypes me up like crazy.
Phyrexia v Ravnica?
TYSM FOR ALL OF THIS!
Very well done and always enjoy your fantastic lore videos. Some stories are better written than others (no fault to you) but you lay it out so well in a very well presented video. Can't wait for the next one and please continue your amazing work!!!
It saddens me to see the fleshy Tamiyo die but my New Phyrexian loyalty makes me proud.
This is crazy, maybe the Phyrexians will try and go after Emrakul so he can be "perfected".
she, and I think it would go the other way xD
See, I kinda think the opposite. Tamiyo in a sense is a "key" to Emrakul. Although mind controlled, Tamiyo is the one who sealed Emrakul in the moon with a spell. So, it would be assumed she is the only one who can "release" that spell.

@@sethbrock5993 Emrakul pretty much taught her through it, though. She's just taking a nap. She can probably get out whenever she wants.
Emrakul would perfect the shit out of the Phyrexians tbh
@@turtlebro0017 I am Really hoping for a Mechanical Body Horror vs Cosmic Eldritch Horror showdown set in the future where it turns out that Compleating Tamiyo was a massively bad choice because of her connections to Emrakrul. You get two themed sets. One like Shadows over Innistrad where there's hints something is wrong in New Phyrexia and the second is like Eldritch Moon where old Emmie shows up and shit goes south real fucking quick for the Phyrexians, honestly they could do with an L as the last few years they've been getting win after win.
I knew I should have not put Elesh Norn and Emrakul side by side on my desk a couple of days ago.
Jin, you can Tamiyo's Compleation one of my fav planeswalker if it suits you, but please don't break my heart, my achy, breaky heart...
Oops nevermind, my brain shifted for a sec
Whoa is that a badge I spy. Amazing !
Something big is coming, and I feel this is going to lead into a Phyrexia-Eldrazi conflict if this is what Emakrul is waiting for
Very possible considering she sealed herself into the moon its likely that Eldrazi don't see time in the same way as we do and she foresaw the phyrexian and tamiyos involvement.
Emrakul is very intelligent as seen with her conversations with Jace
What makes you think they would be in conflict? It seems to me that there would be a kind of mutual assimilation.
Thank you!!! This is excatly what i'v been looking for!!
So now I'm waiting for the "Best of Both Worlds" expansion where Tamiyo is brought back and she uses her Phyrexian knowledge to take them down.
I love when Magic takes a darker turn, this next set is going to be great story wise. Phyrexians coming back means nobody is safe.
Tamiyo is a very tragical character. Previously she was controlled by one of "Great Eldrazi", now she is phyrexian puppet. Furthermore, 1st Vorniclex in Kaladheim, now Jin-Gitaxian in Kamigawa suggest that we may get Phyrexian-focus expansion in the next year. Finally, don't forget that Tezzeret is working with Dimir guildmaster and they already gained Grull and Orzhov support.
Thanks for doing this my friend. Great stuff as always.
All hail our new phyrexian overlords? ;)
The story was much better than i expected. Thank you for the video!
Oh, I'm so torn on this! The fan in me is so crushed by this reveal. Tamiyo was one of my favorite Planeswalkers. Her magic associated with the power of storytelling is incredible and made for an interesting character. Her attempts to be completely neutral also raised a lot of ethical issues regarding the nature of Planeswalkers, which I think was needed for the lore. Also, she's one of the few Planeswalkers with a stable family life. It was hard to see the art for Tamiyo's Compleation without thinking about the pain both mentally and physically she is feeling in that moment. She had children for God's sake, why must you be so cruel?
But the writer in me absolutely loves this twist. It's what the lore has been needing for a while. We needed something to make us feel, to raise the stakes, and to actually get us fans talking again about this story. It's been rough getting back into the story since War of the Spark, but this is finally starting to get interesting thanks to the Kamigawa story. I look forward to another era of good storytelling if this keeps up. I'm mad they killed my precious Planeswalker, but I can't wait to see what they do with this now.
I agree with you, completely. I just hope WotC doesn't try making a couple again then force the writer to absolutely disregard it -_-
Well... she's not dead YET.
This sets up a second war of the spark in a couple of years, a new gatewatch including a monored raging ajani, elspeth in white, a healed garruk led by jace vs tezzeret and his phyrexian minions tibalt and tamiyo.
So angry. I loved Tamiyo, and HATE Phyrexia. Makes me feel impotent since I have no control over where this story leads, but hope that some day there's a way to reverse this process and save her.
Your hate makes you impotent. Embrace change. All will be compleated
@@oneof13forestpeople97 haha this is just like during scars of mirrodin where people would larp as phyrexian supporters hailing yawgmoth n shit
@@tomrovny8717 I’m one IRL, I want to be a Praetor
@@oneof13forestpeople97 ah yes, i can smell your hate for flesh even from here
@@tomrovny8717 you used a machine to reply…that’s the beginning. Also an easy way to compleat the process 😉 we will find you, and we will compleat you
Bold move, good choice, it shakes up the story by a major mile. This means any Planeswalker is now at risk. Worse then death, servitude under corrupted mind is now not only possible, but as the “compleat” mechanic suggests, but recurrent
Damn, press F for Tamiyo. She is one of the better planeswalkers but this happened to her.
F’s in chat please
@@AetherHub F
She has been blessed she is now a Phyrexian that is an honor
@@AetherHub will emrakul consume phyrexia?
F
I think that Phyrexian planeswalkers are exactly what the current mtg story needed. There's a lot of potential to explore here in the coming conflicts and I'm excited to see how the events unfold
My question is.....which Planeswalkers do you think will be compleated next? Imagine if members of the Gatewatch start going missing and then we find out theyve been turned into Phyrexians.
Tamiyo was just a side dish of every storyline and expansions. Now, once COMPLEATED, she can be the star! Perfect.
She was everyone’s cool mom. Show some respect.
The Wanderer mystery explained. Sick!
This makes me want to make card with “Protection from Phyrexians”
You know, I kind of figured Tezzeret would be the first compleated Planeswalker considering he has no issues working with Phyrexians from the way it seems, he's already partially metal, has the Planar Bridge in his chest, and is a solidified antagonist of the series. Months ago I would have painted him as someone who would be the 3rd Father of Machines after Yawgmoth himself and an unwilling Karn.
This is worse than a death this is...well breaking a soul. Tamiyo didn't deserve such a cruel fate. I want every Praetor to burn for this.
YES!.....except for Atraxa...
Glory to phyrexia!!! Next we take Nissa, or someone cooler.
I'll miss tamyo but hell yeah finally phyrexian planeswalkers the implication for the future are thrilling and im lookin firward to hear your thougths about this. And as always thank you for another great lession in lore ❤
I can't believe how much sorrow i feel for Tamiyo :'(. Phyrexia is no lingering threat anymore. They are here and they have claimed their fist victim!
Up until this point, planeswalkers and their sparks were untouchable by the Phyrexians - to me they felt like a beacon of hope in the fight against Phyrexia. But the compleation of Tamiyo was disturbing to me in that it shows no one is safe. Nowhere is safe. She is the first, but she won't be the last. Who'll be next? (Plus what'll become of Koth, who's pretty much fighting day and night within Phyrexia itself?)
However, I really like how they wrote Kaito and the Wanderer. The animated Kamigawa trailer was beautiful. Here's hoping to see more of them!
33:39 - I thought he was going to say "weird shit appearing before her".
29:53 My manz Tezzeret seriously just pulled pocket sand.
I was confused but amused as well :'D
I was compleately shocked!
Got emmmmm :)
I do have the feeling that this set is, for Glistening Oil Saga, like Aether Revolt for the Spark Saga.
I mean that we eventually see more stuff like that, and more compleated planeswalkers, and probably the climax shall come in around two years.
oh damn… phyrexia is really picking up quickly. i wonder if we’ll have a final showdown during Dominaria United, or farther down the line
So the reality chip is the cause of planeswalker being able to be compleated?
It seem that it is able to interact with planewalker spark to stabilize it.
Since Tamiyo has the chip in her when Jin start the conversion process.
What will happen to the planewalker, if the chip is removed?
It really sucks that this wasnt a 2-3 set block, already 3 minutes in theres like 3-4 different groups that should represented in a set.
Theres just so much going on in the set, it would be so cool if we could get more ninjas and samurai and such while still having as much if not more phyrexian representative cards.
thakns for the video, it was awesome, catn wait for this set
I’m such an optimist but im REALLY hoping that this will turn into a weird emerkul saves the day spin. She warps stuff. phyrexians warp stuff. We know shes up to something… if only we could turn the two against each other. I get it, gut punches happen for a reason… but this us why i could never kill anyone in my stories XD i was the only one in college who didn’t enjoy the occasional character murder XD
What if Emerkul is looking to become phyrexian complete herself?
The Jim Gitaxias voice acting was awesome!!!
I like the way Tezzeret just fixes Jin Gitaxis. What a champ!
This set could have totally had a novel and probably revive interest in the novels.
Very well done. Thank you I enjoyed this alot. :)
Great video, thank you!
Hi!!! Love your videos
Love you 😍
I could see this story on the big screen. It's so good!
I am scared that the Eldrazi can return, alongside the Phyrexians because of Tamiyo... would be a amazing yet terrifying sight to see.
Or maybe Emrakul foresaw the Phyrexians and Tamiyos involvement and sealed herself away cause remember Tamiyo didn't want to use that spell.
I'm curious how the relationship between the Phyrexians and Tezzeret is. Do they see him as already compleat? Is he controlling them? Will they turn on him, infecting him.. and then with his powers he would truly be a force to recken with, especially on Phyrexia.
I hope he has ulterior motives otherwise he just went from being Bolas’ lackey to the Phyrexian’s lackey
Tamiyo was my 2nd favorite walker :/ Wonder what the 3 forbidden scrolls are, and if they will actually be used against the Phyrexians instead... I always wondered about that scroll behind the Apocalypse Chime?
29:54 Tezzet: Pocket Sand! Shishishaw!
Thank you for scratching my itch with Kaito's pronunciation!!
With the first Phyrexian Planeswalker running around now and hunting other Walkers to add to their army. Do you think they may call upon Nicol Bolas and Ugin once again to help fight against this new threat?
On another note. How do you think the Phyrexians will fair against the Eldrazis? Both species are able to warp and recreate others into their liking.
You’re welcome. Thanks to you and others I was able to correct the pronunciation! Ugin possibly. But I’d take Phyrexia over Eldrazi. Phyrexia can actually plan better.
I am very sad to see tamiyo be compleated. But it makes sense storywise. The implications it has since she was the one that sealed Emrakul
I'm going to see more phyrexian mana and synergies. They're clearly trying to fix it, and as long as it's still strong enough and can be used with, say, Phyrexian Rage Extractor, this is a good I have literally been waiting my entire Magic career for.
Damn... I know I said I wanted to see phyrexia return, but not this way... We already lost Venser to them, and now Tamiyo... They keep taking my favorite Planeswalkers. I really hope we get an Elspeth story with Tamiyo where she fights to free herself.
Hey Seiben! 👋
Who do you think is next to be converted my money is on Tibalt and Ashiok.
Keep up the good work!
Tibalt for sure!
Excellent video
my question is can completion be undone. Because it would suck if a close friend of tamiyo now has to kill her
We will have to see…
There is one record of such feat or at least very similar to it. But the price of such cure was that of the life of another planeswalker named Venser. Already severely wounded he did give up his spark (and thus sealed his fate) to cure the phyrexian poison from the mind and hearth of Karn, the planeswalker dubbed (and tainted) at that time by the phyrexians as their new Father of Machines.
So we have Jin-Gitaxias and Vorinclex. Which praetor will be the next to reveal themselves I wonder. I’d be quite interested to see a new iteration of Sheoldred.
