The Alpha box break got me curious about Magic, then I played Arena, now I've got 5 commander decks and attend locals twice a week. This channels so fun to watch!
Because of the struggle to find Commander's with old sets - You guys should just make an errata to the format. If you do not open a Legendary Creature you can use: You can Partner up to Two The Prismatic Piper's as your Commander. They're just 5-mana 3/3's that let you pick a color, so someone could be a dual-color deck without praying they open the right "dual-color uncommon/common creature". Commander Legends had this same fear even though there were 1 billion Legends in the set - - So they made Prismatic Piper ( a colorless commander ) that picks a color before the game begins, so that you can get around the "feels bad" moment of not having a commander.
@@Chewy-Pudding They are trying to play commander, though. This advice is to make it easier to play commander specifically. If they wanted to play another format instead, I'm sure they would.
Great video! It noteworthy to mention that older sets were not created with commander in mind, therefore multi color/legendary creatures will be somewhat rare. This problem will get worse the further back in magic history you go. Therefore, It may be worth allowing any two mono color creatures to use partner (regardless of legendary status), or remove the commander color/legendary restriction altogether to increase deck building freedom.
This has legitimately turned into one of the best Magic content channels. Not just because Charlie, but the entire crew is frickin hilarious and they are fun to watch.
I am so happy I found this channel. Watching Charlie and friends play magic has gotten me so hooked onto magic now I can’t explain. Plus watching the other content with “the other channel” has been incredible. Love it😊
This was the set that got me into magic, little old me playing magic online in 2014 and 10 years later watching my favorite dudes brawl it out. This series is just too good.
54:33 Charlie saying "I should've killed you instead of playing for fun" is hilarious. It was for fun when he was messing with everybody while having the opportunity to win anytime, but now that that tables have turned he accuses everybody of playing for keeps and being mean lmao literally the arrogant anime villain
The concept of this series is awesome, I know there's only a couple episodes so far but it'd be great if you guys could keep a playlist of this series!
Loved the episode. Cannot wait to see next weeks! A suggestion: you guys should add the newest set to the wheel when one comes off. That way there's always the chance to play the hot new thing next week! granted being a wheel there's no guarantee. But you get 4 episodes to every set release, at least, so it's not like you're adding a brand new set to the wheel every week.
Not only are you guys cracking and showing prices of these older cards, you're playing them in a way that no one would have played them back when these sets released! This is super fun.
I love the magic content I've been playing magic since I was 10 years old some of my best core memories for magic related like winning my first draft tournament at Friday night magic what is so awesome it's great to see the love for the game still so strong
Literally before watching this I was thinking they need to at least script 1 win for spicymatt feels good. Didn't care about magic or dnd at all before watching this channel now it's the highlight of the week, and got me wishing I had cool friends to play with.
I think it might be a cool addition to make a second wheel with game modifiers to play with each battle. For example, shock collar could be moved over to that one, there could be stuff like choosing 1 card as a companion, everyone starts with mana crypt, everyone starts with 20 life, etc
I started MTG just as Journey Into Nyx came out. I was in college just getting into it with my friends and all learning the rules together and playing whenever we had down time between classes and it's crazy to think it released a about a decade ago
After watching the water obstacle course, i feel extra bad for Ryan. He genuinely sounded pretty sad about his card being ruined in that video, and in this one, he's completely quiet through most of the pack openings. Seems like he was just really hoping for a cool "replacement" for the ruined card, and he didn't get it. I hope they make it up to him
Drew is really sneaky with how he politics. Charlie outright lied to Matt and Drew took advantage of the betrayal to turn on Charlie and get second without even having a boardstate. Definitely feel like people will get more weary of him in the future.
Have you guys ever thought about tapping normal lands as any color and withhold the color restriction on box brawls so we can see the good pulls in action and not only be limited to the colors of your commander? Might be a cool idea
this has been by far one of the funniest episodes by far between the shit talking and charlie seeming to have woke up on the wrong side of the bed lmao @27:18 charlie looks like an evil goblin while ryan looks at him with disappointment with what he just said
Years ago when I first got into magic I actually remember playing king Macar, the gold cursed. When my friends and I first got into magic we made some pretty terrible decks that were almost always over 60 cards, and played with some pretty jank cards that we thought were amazing. The cards may have been jank, and we definitely botched the rules a few times. And for a good while we misread slivers as “silvers” but the fun we had was unparalleled.
It's funny because Matt had full control over who got second place in the end there. If he swung all out on Drew while Charlie was alive that would kill him and then he could use Coinsmith to deal 1 damage to Charlie and still win that game. Instead he killed the man who sheltered him the whole game.
I'm so happy that Charlie makes magic content, I've also recently got into it, feels great seeing him discover the hobby
Agreed. Started last May, and this is hype
Same I’m mad new and going to my first draft today!
@@thew0rm105 good luck today
Addiction*
Enjoy it! As a fellow newb I have fallen face and wallet first into this damn game lmao
Charlie completely turning on Matt then getting upset when Drew attacks him was hilarious
Ya ngl, Charlie kinda seems like a bit of a sore loser sometimes. Like he’s still leading overall but was clearly salty about Drews move here
Eok😢c 😢@@peaceroolz
@@peaceroolz I think you’re reading to far into it
Everyone is a sore loser sometimes
@@DaBeanieBaby15 definitely possible, but I’ve played a lot sports throughout my life, and he’s definitely giving some signs of a salty loser 🤷♂️
The Alpha box break got me curious about Magic, then I played Arena, now I've got 5 commander decks and attend locals twice a week. This channels so fun to watch!
Any tips about getting into Arena as F2P, is just get matched against decks that don't interact with me and win on turn 4 or 5 xD
Boy that escalated quickly
@@tartuffethespry Fr wasn't the alpha box video like a month ago? 😂
same for me Im literally obsessed now.
I just love the flavour of mythic cards, shredded mythic on sourdough keeps me playing more
The salt from Charlie is the best part of this battle 😂
This is unironically the best MTG content on UA-cam

Or maybe -just maybe- not every format needs to be commander, and you can play limited without them entirely.
@@Chewy-Pudding They are trying to play commander, though. This advice is to make it easier to play commander specifically. If they wanted to play another format instead, I'm sure they would.
They should just make it so any mono-color legendary creature has partner as well!
Sounds like a good idea honestly,a token commander if you will
@@Chewy-Pudding Commander is just more fun, but sure, they could play something shit instead

I dont think it can be overstated how gracefully Ryan loses. So refreshing, very mature. Much wow.
This is revenge for Charlie and Ryan bullying drew and Matt the last two episodes 😂
This has legitimately turned into one of the best Magic content channels. Not just because Charlie, but the entire crew is frickin hilarious and they are fun to watch.
"Local man found face up drown in kiddy pool... Officials say his stomach had 2 gallons of water in it before rupturing..."
I am so happy I found this channel. Watching Charlie and friends play magic has gotten me so hooked onto magic now I can’t explain. Plus watching the other content with “the other channel” has been incredible. Love it😊
The editor's notes on this always make me giggle. keep up the good work editor!
Since watching these mtg videos I've gotten into it myself. Did my first prerelease last night. Thank you for opening my eyes to this awesome game!
Wheel decided not to force Charlie into another mortgage. 😂
He doesn't need to my man.
@@JohnDueor I’m aware he makes a lot of money but it’s likely he reinvests.
This was my first ever pre release. So many good memories from back then.
This was the set that got me into magic, little old me playing magic online in 2014 and 10 years later watching my favorite dudes brawl it out. This series is just too good.

This is the set that got me into Magic. Much love for this 💚
This is already my favorite magic the gathering content series by far! I hope that this continues long after I stop playing.
The concept of this series is awesome, I know there's only a couple episodes so far but it'd be great if you guys could keep a playlist of this series!
Just did the Bloomburrow Pre-release at like 1:00am, got first place!!!
im doing it tmmr, what did you think was strongest to run?
also congrats!!
Is there an reward for winning or is it just for fun
@@maclainholland4236I think you get a pack every time you win.
Beast mode
loving the magic content. these are the only magic commander games on youtube that i watch all the way
I really hope this series makes it all the way great content!
This is probably my favorite magic series at the moment. It’s really cool getting to see the older sets.
Love the editor/editors. Every video is a banger.
journey into nyx was the first set i ever bought a box of, love this getting some love and love this channel!
Loved the episode. Cannot wait to see next weeks! A suggestion: you guys should add the newest set to the wheel when one comes off.

But you get 4 episodes to every set release, at least, so it's not like you're adding a brand new set to the wheel every week.
i wasn't watching magic before but this channel has lit my spark for the love of the game and to watch more on it please keep it up❤
This is so nostalgic. I started playing Theros right when it came out and personally the Theros block and Tarkir block are my favorites
Charlie backstabbing Matt and then being surprised when he himself is backstabbed was actually hilarious
the editing for the magic vids is so fire. Alsoyay for Matt's first win!
Not only are you guys cracking and showing prices of these older cards, you're playing them in a way that no one would have played them back when these sets released! This is super fun.
Amazing vids, love to see the saga continue
You can tell Charlie is a yugioh player at heart because of where he puts his deck
The editing at the very end was so fire
Charlie learned, Ruthlessness is mercy upon one’s self
i love this idea with the wheel! great video, boys. cant wait for more
This is the BEST magic content out there
Theros and Tarkir blocks are some of my favorites made cubes out of then glad yall did this set
I love the magic content I've been playing magic since I was 10 years old some of my best core memories for magic related like winning my first draft tournament at Friday night magic what is so awesome it's great to see the love for the game still so strong
Who’s also rooting for Matt?
Yea I don't know why but yea goo matt
Well I'm absolutely stoked about THIS ONE! This was my first ever Magic set!!
The intro hits hard
Literally before watching this I was thinking they need to at least script 1 win for spicymatt feels good. Didn't care about magic or dnd at all before watching this channel now it's the highlight of the week, and got me wishing I had cool friends to play with.
These are so fun..... I'd love to be able to just break old boxes and relive what I used to play and what I missed lol
32:35
Ryan's legendary philosophical message
Can't wait for Bloomburrow box battle
this magic content is SO GOOD
These videos are great and the editor is hilarious
YES! MORE SHOCK COLLAR!!!! And Invasion is a sick-ass set too. I can't wait!
Shock collar gonna be so fire
I love that you guys use the FF7 menu sounds
I think it might be a cool addition to make a second wheel with game modifiers to play with each battle. For example, shock collar could be moved over to that one, there could be stuff like choosing 1 card as a companion, everyone starts with mana crypt, everyone starts with 20 life, etc
I started MTG just as Journey Into Nyx came out. I was in college just getting into it with my friends and all learning the rules together and playing whenever we had down time between classes and it's crazy to think it released a about a decade ago
Such a great series. I'm looking forward to another Shock collar episode 😅
the theros block was my favorite and i went hard in nyx so glad to see them playing it
"Moving to cringe step" goes hard. definitely stealing that one
After watching the water obstacle course, i feel extra bad for Ryan. He genuinely sounded pretty sad about his card being ruined in that video, and in this one, he's completely quiet through most of the pack openings. Seems like he was just really hoping for a cool "replacement" for the ruined card, and he didn't get it. I hope they make it up to him
It’s COMING BACK. V excited
Drew is really sneaky with how he politics. Charlie outright lied to Matt and Drew took advantage of the betrayal to turn on Charlie and get second without even having a boardstate. Definitely feel like people will get more weary of him in the future.
Love journey into nyx, it was one of the first sets I played back when it came out!
Awesome series, keep it up! 👏
Honestly can't wait for you guys to land on Throne of Eldraine. It's the set that brought me back to Magic.
Playing it while at work. Thanks for the video!
Bestow was such a good mechanic. Having a leftover creature after removal is great.
Please make a playlist compiling all of the Box Brawls, I want to watch them in order
favourite brawl so far the absolute chaos
I'm pretty sure we're all rooting for Matt to become king of this thunderdome
Thats a really cool format. Keep it going. wish i have so many friends that play magic and have money too to do that
This series is very Red Letter Media coded and I love it.
This was the set that I started in. Fun watch.
editor is really good!
44:45 the one and only AGENT OF CHAOS
Love the dark fantasy intros
30:52 That's not "a starfish"... That's THE "Scryfish" lol
Ending was amazing
YOOOO they paid attention to the partner suggestion, based
28:24 Take-backsies makes Kitchen Table Magic of ANY format a great game!
You guys should absolutely trade cards with each other when needed/wanted
So glad to see the shock collar set to return.
Me and my wife got into commander just for fun and we love it. We just play precons only with our friends and makes a fun game night
I really like the wheel and stuff and how y'all are doing this its fun to watch i love it!~!
Have you guys ever thought about tapping normal lands as any color and withhold the color restriction on box brawls so we can see the good pulls in action and not only be limited to the colors of your commander? Might be a cool idea

Years ago when I first got into magic I actually remember playing king Macar, the gold cursed. When my friends and I first got into magic we made some pretty terrible decks that were almost always over 60 cards, and played with some pretty jank cards that we thought were amazing. The cards may have been jank, and we definitely botched the rules a few times. And for a good while we misread slivers as “silvers” but the fun we had was unparalleled.
I love Invasion, looking forward to the next one.
This is sick intros my dude
Love this kind of content please keep it up
Box brawl is such a cool new format. A+ guys
Yea hopefully Charlie gets his own magic card and is x/x .
Where x is equal to the number of misplays in the entirety of the game .
Drew is a premature sprayer
Is it really a box battle episode if the intro doesn't have scuffed audio
Fantastic work skillcheck team ❤❤❤
31:52 SuperSpicyMatt moment of the game
It's hilarious how small Charlie looks sitting down compared to everyone else
god damnit, that intro goes so hard
This was awesome!
2 Mana confluences and 2 dictates of Erebos... crazy pulls
I cannot wait for Gatecrash, the set I got into magic, the set I will live again through them
It's funny because Matt had full control over who got second place in the end there. If he swung all out on Drew while Charlie was alive that would kill him and then he could use Coinsmith to deal 1 damage to Charlie and still win that game. Instead he killed the man who sheltered him the whole game.
