32:56 Ben realizing the spell goes back to the gy after being escaped was priceless. Great game and great to see Ben figuring out how to storm off, regardless of the misstep in the numebr of storm copies from frantic search
Nice job Ben! I have been gold-fishing my storm deck a lot because it is a very complicated deck, so to do it on camera for the first time is awesome! Good for you! And to all the people complaining about the storm count 0 being wrong, it's okay; the table was dead anyway to commander damage with the rest of his turns, so it really didn't change anything. And now everyone knows to fear Storm, Force of Nature.
Yea I thought the numbers were off, how many frantic searches should he have actually gotten? The storm count was what 2 when he cast it so he gets the original cast and 2 instances of storm that's 4 extra from storm on the original spell and then a copy so 1 original, 4 from the 2 storm triggers and 1 from the copy off twinferno for a total of 6 and not the 12 they landed on?
@@conker1847storm (not the creature) copies a spell for each “other” spell cast that turn, so when he cast frantic search with storm count 2 it only creates 2 copies, then twinferno creates 1 additional copy, so he should have the actual frantic search on the stack and then 3 copies, basically 4 instances, copies don’t count towards storm count, also copies with storm don’t trigger storm because they weren’t actually cast
says "he's playing storm & we're not gonna help him", immediately starts helping him lol, awesome game guys! Was an amazing storm deck u all played hehe
You right CGB but pls stop moving the storm count up before the storm trigger. If storm count is 0 and i cast a spell with storm it copies 0 times not 1 time
Ok, it was fun watching Ben struggling hard to make a win out of Storm storming ultra hard. Also, flashback to CGB asking "are we going to let Storm hit? what's the worst that could happen?" ROFL.
32:05 unless im mistaken.. he cant cast it using the freerunning cost, because he isnt just able to cast spells from his graveyard, it grants them the escape ability, with the cost being its mana cost plus exiling 3.. not that it mattered since he had a ton of mana, but so others dont make this mistake too
you are correct. The text on UB is specific about the cost of spells that are cast with UB's effect, so that overrides the ability to use an alternative cost. If you asked a judge they'd tell you which layer these things operate on, but im not a judge so im not sure. I just know you cant cast for alternatives if you're using UB to cast from the yard.
@@HollowdTV I believe it is just as simple as Freerunning is an alternate casting cost and so is the escape given by breach. As escape is the only alt casting cost that can be cast from the GY then it is the alt cost you pay (full mana plus exiling the cards).
A guy at my LGS picked up a copy of each foil and non foil. When he learned about the shortage, he offered to sell 1 of each to others at no markup. Was able to pick up Iron Man from him.
Last night my friend played a totally busted storm deck (which now is banned from our pod). In his final turn he played a sorcery that copied every instant and sorcery in his graveyard so we just gave him the victory rather than trying to resolve 20 different spells in the stack.
@@AgusSkywalkermizzix's mastery overloaded can be very complicated and exhausting 😅 did that once with a thousand year storm out and haven't played the deck since lol
At first, I thought I’d get some cool card ideas for the Marvel decks I’m working on. Then Storm happened 😂. Congrats to Ben for popping off first time playing storm!
Watching Ben play storm was like watching my daughter ride a bike. I know she can do it, but as soon as she knows she can do it too, it's heart warming.
If you cast a card with the "Storm" ability when there are no other spells cast during the current turn, the Storm ability will not trigger because there is no "storm count" to create copies of the spell
Lol watching Ben deal with being the storm pilot is so entertaining. We can only hope to have as good of friends as he has to help keep track like that! Lmao 😂😂😂
The storm keyword ability is on CAST. So I'm pretty sure you did the Frantic Search wrong. The Frantic Search was cast. The Twinferno creates a copy. That copy is NOT cast. So the original Frantic Search would storm twice because of Storm (the creature which had double strike giving storm, storm). The storm count was 2 so each storm trigger creates 2 copies. 4 copies. Plus the Twinferno copy. Plus the original. For a total of 6 Frantic Searches on the stack. So at the end the Boltwave with storm 9 would create 11 instances on the stack (leaving Brent at 2 life). The original, the copy from from Sword of Wealth and Power and the 9 storm copies. I'm guessing he probably plays Thousand Year Storm in the deck (I mean it would be silly not to play that card) so remember this if that ever hits the board. You don't get like hundreds of copies of a storm spell with storm count 10 (and instant and sorcery count 10) and Thousand Year on the battlefield. Just like 20. Also any COPIES of spells do not add to your storm count in case you cast multiple spells in a turn with storm. So if you cast for instance a Mind's Desire with storm count 4 you get 5 instances of Mind's Desire but then if you immediately cast a Grapeshot after the Mind's Desire the storm count is only 5 so you only get 6 Grapeshots.
he should have had 14 frantic searches i believe. one original frantic, and one copied frantic, each with "Storm, Storm" from double striking. storm count 3. so each card had its original spell, with two storm counts of 3, so 7 casts per "card".
to explain a little further, if i cast Lightning bolt, with storm count 3, i get 4 lightning bolts. The original, plus 3 copies from storm. If i copied that lightning bolt with twinferno, i'd get another Lightning bolt with storm count 3, The original, plus 3 copies from storm. total 8. hope that makes sense.
@@HollowdTV You're wrong as fuck but ok. Copies of spells are NOT CAST and don't trigger storm if they did literally any card with storm goes infinite immediately b/c storm cards copy spells.
Well I for one love the cgb signature beaver shuffle :) (would totally watch all cgb teach the shuffle in a vid) And we thought cgb taking a few extra turns with gonti’s aether heart was a problem…but wow that was a game
I get wanting to be thematic with Storm having storm, but did Wizards not relize that any time that commander hits the table the player will be hated out?
@rozza1996 playing defence all the time gets boring. Ask Tergrid and Orvar players, along with Edgar, Narset, Korvold and a lot of the other high power commanders. Storm is unlikely to see casual play, so a lot of people are going to have to think about that before getting or running the card. Not always a good thing being the center of attention.
@@platinumangel7446 I mean... you're right but yeah this is just how it goes. Storm ends up in the same kind of boat as Yuriko or Tergrid etc where you can say you're going to play it fairly but even fairly it's kinda broken and you're basically guaranteed to get targeted every game. She's just really strong. Play her in higher power games and it's fine. Nothing wrong with her being a more high tier card that's just not super casual friendly tbh. There's a ton of commanders in that category.
I proxied up all the Marvel SLDs, and I built Storm as THEE Otter & Frogs commander, SO MUCH FUN. Basically prowess otters in standard + bounce frogs from standard mashed into a commander deck.
I won my first game by storming off precombat, using a mana dork enabler (Cryptolith Rite, Enduring Vitality & or Elven Chorus) Had Valley Flood Caller and Stormsplitter, ended up with 16 mega pumped Stormsplitters
The copies of spells don't have storm: copies work at layer 1, but abilities are layer 6. This is the exact same rule as for permanents (if you copy a creature that gained trample, the copy doesn't have trample): it applies to everything else as well. Also, I'm not sure of what's more incredible: that you guys uploaded this game, or that I watched it all!
Layers have nothing to do with it (they are used to sort out continuous effects). The copy will have the storm ability, the ability just won’t trigger because it wasn’t cast.
@-Neighbors My point about layers is thst copy effects only copy the reeults of layer 1, not further layers. This is in addition to the fact that, as you said, thebtrigger condition isnmet.
Time to make some changes to the Storm deck to make it my own. I’m thinking Thousand-Year Storm. Radstorm, and Prologue to Phyresis for kicks and giggles.
When Storm hits with double strike, it hits twice with combat damage. It means that the next instant/sorcery has Storm Storm. So 14 cards with Frantic Search?
Ben looks like me when i got my first commander deck. It was a melek deck that would epic experiment for like 40 and that was my intro to magic. Hindsight it was a very poor choice of deck lol
Everyone who has read storm and now after seeing this knows that if you see a storm force of nature deck at your table? Do the best kind of removal. Player removal
I got Storm but haven't made a deck yet. Now I know that once I do, I'll only bring her out if it looks like the rest of the pod is really high powered. That said, I won with both Black Panther and Captain America last night . The BP wins were fair magic (though now I want an Inkmoth Nexus for it), the CA win was fair but super fast.
Whooooole lotta mistakes in this one, from how the game works to how to just win much much earlier. Still enjoyed watching you guys having fun. Even if it felt like sitting across from someone " I SUMMON POT OF GREED TO DRAW 3 ADDITIONAL CARDS FROM MY DECK"ing
I'm played against storm once and it went pretty much like this, except the storm trigger was on an extra combats spell rather than an extra turns. I know if I am playing against storm I am mulliganing to ensure i have removal.
Spells with storm only count spells cast before it so they do not count themselves. Copies of storm spells don't make more copies as storm is a cast trigger and copies are not cast.
Hmm…he could have cast the extra combats spell instead of extra turns and built up an absurd number of Storm triggers from the doublestrike. As long as there was some way to get mana for frantic search, he could have probably gone into a number of turns greater than there are particles in the observable universe. If I get bored, I’ll calculate it.
Storm (the mechanic) copies for each spell cast before it. If it is the first spell cast then it is not copied. And a copied spell doesn't gain storm as that is not an original characteristic of the spell.
Tbf inkmoth nexus could have been animated and blocked storm to make her a 1/2 unable to do commander damage kills over the course of however many turns.

Eery person who can read knows Storm is one of the most broken commanders available currently.
25:22 the copy does have storm, but since storm is a cast trigger, you don't get the storm copies from the twinferno one.
52:15 CGB is right lol
Last thing too. Storm does not cast the spell you cast, it's other spells. So if a storm spell is your first one of the turn it gets 0 copies.
Yea I thought the numbers were off, how many frantic searches should he have actually gotten?

@@raijingamiThe storm trigger triggers after you cast the spell so it does see the cast

Ben taking 25 extra turns on like turn 5 is the most epic thing I've seen in a minute. What an intro to storm XD
That was SO good. I laughed at the whole episode. Specially because it was Ben figuring out everything... And Brent's comments were priceless.

Awesome game! Ben did great. I haven’t made a storm (mechanic) deck for this reason lol. This level of complexity breaks my brain 😂
So great seeing Ben handling that brain melting turn (s) and great seeing the crew helping 😊
Wow for Ben's first storm deck he blew the rest away. That was one heck of a match, it was hilarious.
When I heard that Ben gets 24 more turns, I couldn't stop laughing 🤣🤣🤣🤣 this was an amazing game!
At first I was upset at CGB attacking Ben for 18 but now I see it’s completely justified and should’ve been more 😂
Gee, it's almost like Storm is a strong mechanic or something. ;)

Loving the encouragement between friends to give Ben space to solve the storm puzzle. 🧩
Hmm…he could have cast the extra combats spell instead of extra turns and built up an absurd number of Storm triggers from the doublestrike. As long as there was some way to get mana for frantic search, he could have probably gone into a number of turns greater than there are particles in the observable universe. If I get bored, I’ll calculate it.
And this ladies and gentlemen is why you don't do this to your friends in casual pods.
cgb is right about the bolt waves
Ben obviously prefers gruul stompy
Storm (the mechanic) copies for each spell cast before it. If it is the first spell cast then it is not copied. And a copied spell doesn't gain storm as that is not an original characteristic of the spell.

Ben is the coolest!
Who cares who was right? Ben wins either way! Fun as always!
The answer is infinite turns, but he also could have simi infinite combats as well. He would run out of deck before he ran out of combats
