solid video. Given the variety of people's budgets etc. it might be good in the future to provide some sort of metric e.g. "worth $8 price=I'd only buy this if I had a dedicated deck for it....$15+ this is generically good is absolutely worth your first copy probably a second copy worth $25+=this card is so powerful that it will help you win games and absolutely worth it."
Krenko is a very boring deck to play and play against. People who play it have no imagination because if someone wants to play goblins they just grab the strongest goblin commander krenko and it’s very boring.
I once played against a guy who was using Glacial Chasm and he was doing Cumulative Upkeep wrong and no one in our pod noticed because he had so many upkeep triggers. He must've had it on the field for 6 turns and only paid 12 life for it. I will never make that mistake again. That game ended up being like 3 hours
I feel palantir of orthanc is better than one ring in certain decks. Not only dp you get a card draw, but you scry, you can proliferate the counters, it damages the opponents, and you can recur pieces that get milled.
@FaithlessLooting I slid one in my mana heavy hidetsugu exile deck, and it is hilarious when they take the damage of 3 titans! Outside of that, there are so many ways to bring things back in almost all colors.
Yeah, Moxfield by default goes by Card Kingdom, which is notorious for raising the price of singles, which is good for selling cards to them, but as a price guide, not so much.
Chromatic Lantern is simply a QOL card. Not needing to think how you crank your lands is simply convenient. That’s why it goes into so many commander decks 😂
@@Barturito It’s just one mana rock in the 99 and I am rarely not happy to pull it. Obviously it doesn’t belong into decks that can ramp in other ways, but in others it’s a usually pleasant inclusion and that’s what counts IMO.
The One Ring really helps my handful of decks that don’t have car draw and need to compete with all the power creep. I absolutely love it and I had better not bandit
@@dokkabaerpg7896 ban it*. i was hoping context would have helped people discern what i meant. i was using talk-to-text at that time because i was driving.
Tibalt's trickery and Reprieve are decent but Lapse of Certainty has been my favorite non blue counterspell so far, putting the card back on top of library has so often felt like straight up countering without downside. Sure they will get it back next turn but if you countered some kind of game ending spell, the table has the whole turn cycle to murder them.
Archfiend of Despair is incredibly powerful in certain decks like Rakdos Valgavoth. Its Wound Reflection on a body that you can do crazy shenanigans like Saw in half (double Wound reflection) and insta win with Heartless Hidetsugu ( everyone lose half their life, now each opponent loses that same amount again) or do massive damage with your beefed up Valgavoth and Kediss Emberclaw familiar (damage one opponent, now all take that damage and Archfiend makes them take it again) or even wheel effects and triple damage enchantments in play (draw 7, take 3 damage per card, 21 damage now take another 21) The card says each end step, including your own, so you don't have to wait for archfiend to go all around and get back to you to get value, all these examples I gave are all as soon as you cast him on your turn!!!
I love chromatic lantern in my decks that run 3 or more colors. I dont rely on it, but it makes my life easier and im never mad to pull it I guess part of it is cuz my playgroup keeps it cool and casual
Chromatic lantern is just another 3 mana ramp spell. It makes it so you don’t have to think about things. It’s the epitome of casual. It’s also great for decks that steal from opponents, Edward kenway comes to mind, and casting opponents spells. It’s solid in four and five color decks too.
Archfiend of despair... you don't reanimator it at the game start, always cast your bad stuff first and then when opponent have less cards go for it. I killed many (reanimated) Valgavoth, Terror Eater just by casting Sheoldred's Edict or sacrifice cards
I think I find myself agreeing with a lot of your choices, except the swords. Especially feast and famine. 2+ power and toughness buff Protection from two colors (if f&f it’s black and green, the removal color and the creature color) which keeps your creature really hard to block, hard to remove, has more toughness and hits harder, on top of it being constant card advantage by way of making others discard theirs, and on top of that you untap all your lands. And that’s just f&f. So much value on one card, I can’t ever see it not hitting the mark for me personally as long as I have one
Chromatic Lantern is a strange case. Every analysis like this correctly pegs it as a poor option for the reasons it seems so popular, that it's not a good way to fix mana and compensate for weak manabases. But in trying to get that message across it's become underrated - or probably the better way to say it is that both sides of the argument are focusing on a misevaluation. I do run Chromatic Lantern in some decks as the last mana rock in, but the purpose is to help produce either exactly WUBRG or filter a lot of mana into one color in 4 or 5 color decks. Especially ones where the commander is one color to cast, but has 5 color identity due to activated abilities. It's a bad card to count on for early game fixing, but it's a decent card if you're using it mid game to help ensure you can activate your commander and especially if helps increase the number of activations, while being an okay early game rock.
I pulled the one ring. The only de k I run it in is queza, augur of agonies. I don't really run it in anything else. Casually don't buy the one ring unless you just want it.
@@SabreAran You're right I should be more responsible about what I say on the internet. Instead take two shots every time they say cards, you will be drunk in 5 minutes 20 minutes into the video.
Descent into Avernus is boss. You get the mana first, and building in artifact hate means you can take away the benefit from opponents after the first couple go arounds by using some of your treasures to wipe all of theirs.
Descent into avernus is worth it for the fun but maybe not the power. I love its effect on speeding up the game and enabling the big plays only possible in commander.
I & most players I know would argue with you about building a mana base being 'not that 'hard'. I'd argue it's the hardest part for multi colored decks. Not saying chromatic lantern is the greatest but it does help & only an newbie would rely on that being the only piece of mana fixing.
Hearing Mia say that Glacial Chasm is $30 good is funny considering I just purchased the gorgeous Modern Frame copy from the From the Vault: Realms for my Lumra lands deck as a “fog” effect I can pull out of the Graveyard. I also own an original copy in my Premodern frame only Jolrael, Voice of Zhalfir deck
I still run Archfiend of Despair in my multiple combat Kaalia, drop this on the 2nd or 3rd combat, it's so good. I've taken out two opponents at the same time a couple times by dropping him on my last Kaalia trigger for the turn.
Hello! 👋 11:30 Funny that you mention Sheoldred. Keijus here from the whatnot auction a few weeks back. I asked you to draw her as a token. Well I now have 4. I cracked one last Saturday. I couldn't believe it. I have 3 regular art and one alt art.
Hey just wondering, where do you get your card prices because the price of a lot of these are very inflated, such as beseech the mirror, which is only 12 on tcg player
I love descent into avernus it is one of my favourite cards of all time even though it often leads to my death. It’s insane in my neheb the eternal deck. It really speeds up the game in my Obeka splitter of seconds deck.
I got a lord of the rings bundle on ebay a few weeks back for 150 mostly because i knew id get a ring and 9 shots at getting a second one. 😂 Also chromatic lantern is just a good mana fixer that works with every deck. Honestly it should be like sol ring and in ever precon as far as im concerned
While I agree chromatic lantern isn't good enough on its own, I think nowadays there are enough similar effects that if you're running a particularly greedy five color it might be your 3rd or 4th mana fixer?
I spent 50 dollars on a single One Ring and its in my Giada deck because mono white angels struggles with card draw since white likes to draw cards with cheap low to the ground creatures. If i need more i can just proxy it now
removing Age counters from Glacial Chasm with a Scholar of New Horizons turns it from a land that doesn't make mana to one that gets you another land every turn and stays life neutral in Oloro
Wedding Annoucement generated a Human token because they’re the servants at the wedding, look up the art for the VOW human tokens. It’s not a flavor fail but a host fail.
I’m still not big on the life loss of the ring, but would Tibalt’s Trickery be good in a blue adjacent deck as a Chaos Warp type fun card that can be turned into a value piece? Also though I’ll buy 15 Metamorphosis Fanatic-
The ONLY reason I own a 1 ring is I got sooo lucky that a game stop had 1 bundle left that had it as a promo and was selling it at the originalish of like 55 bucks instead of the 120 bucks.
We know you guys don't like Chromatic Lantern, but how about Commander's Sphere? Similar but really different cards. I think that the Sphere still holds up since you can always sac it for a draw in the mid game. What do you guys think?
I sincerely doubt they will ban The One Ring anytime soon, Post Malone dropped like 2 million on it. It was one of the biggest draws that the game has ever had. I think the only reason that they haven't banned it in modern is the optics, having it banned in nearly every format after the publicity of Post Malone buying the card would look horrible for Wizards and they now control every ban list.
I really want to buy one ring for my Sauron, the dark lord commander deck for both flavor and it's just an amazing card. I'm just hesitant to buy it because idk if it's gonna get banned in commander
You forget the #2 reason why the one ring isn't in *every* deck outside of the price: Players are SPLIT about Universes Beyond. The lord of the rings set has the most 10/10s and 0/10s out of any magic set ever made as far as reviews go. A lot of people don't want to play it, because they hate Universes Beyond.
I verry much doubt the classic fantasy lord of the rings enrages more people than say dr who 😅, especially considering its one if the few universe beyond products that fits with mtg thematically.
I always like your content, you were one of the channels I found when I first started playing. I wasn’t playing battle cruiser then (not on purpose) always was trying to beat my friends and they always tried to beat me. I say “we never didn’t play cedh, we just used to be bad at magic”. Ive stayed tuned in to this show though most of your input doesn’t apply to me. I especially like when you do the “is it worth it” and that kinda thing. I’ve made many purchases based on your input. So I mean this as a friend… These don’t make all that much sense if you don’t tie it to a budget. I hear you struggle w that very fact as you say things like “well if someone handed you a thousand dollars..” you can’t determine what is worth buying without establishing a budget unless you are giving financial advice which I think, genuinely, is not what you are trying to do. Maybe just tell us “if I were building a deck on x dollar budget” Or just establish what you spent for most of your decks and then we can go from there. Should I pay $25 for x? If it’s going to make my deck better the question can’t be answered in any meaningful way without respect to some budget
The dovehawk definitely has the issue where it's too expensive (real world money wise) for the power level that it's designed for, if I'm gonna buy a 25 dollar upgrade for my token deck, the hawk is WAY down tbe list of options
I picked it up at ~$7 kicking myself for not getting it when it was $3. Can't believe it keeps going up, I REALLY hope it gets a reprint so I can get a couple more copies!
Have to say I find Glacial Casm and the likes pretty unethical (too strong word though 😂) in casual commander. Nobody will play land removal as silent agreement on sub strong levels so imo it’s pretty crappy to abuse that.
Depending on the build i could see it being decent. If you go for example athreos (3mana) for a mid power deck then sure, if you instead go for a high power variant like shizou then its probably not great. Either way i hope you pack enough carddraw (not jyst the ecpensive ones)since getting 6 1 drops on the board on time is harder than you may expect.
@@Shimatzu95 Yeah I have about 13 card draw sources and the ripple 4 card. I always end up changing stuff after the first play session anyways because usually I overestimate how consistent it will be when building it
If you're gonna play a 3-mana rock, my as well play one that also fixes all your mana. Ya'll poo poo on Chromatic Lantern but I'd take it over Commander's Sphere and others

I am here once again to defend my boy Chromatic Lantern
Our battle will rage on for centuries
Its a great card auto including it in all my 3 plus color decks
As a card, I will defend Chromatic Lantern. However, I can't justify the $4 price tag for it. If was $1 or less, then it's worth it.
@@TheMusrich888 Wizards should really reprint it in any 4 color+ precon

Palantir is a blast...I've run it in my Eldrazi deck since it was printed and now I run it in Kona. People get scared of it and just hand you cards😄
Why not just playing both
@googloocraft1217 i could. I just rather not be to oppressive and paint a bigger target on me for player removal.
Nitpicking nerds is always worth buying. Got 1 coming in the mail.
Beseech the mirror is like $13 on TCGplayer tho. Like Moxfield is cool, for sure, but not "half the cost" cool.
Yeah, Moxfield by default goes by Card Kingdom, which is notorious for raising the price of singles, which is good for selling cards to them, but as a price guide, not so much.
The One Ring is the most played card in modern. Even more than any lands...

I just put archfiend into my shadowborn apostle's deck 1 day ago lol, I hope it works out
Depending on the build i could see it being decent.
If you go for example athreos (3mana) for a mid power deck then sure, if you instead go for a high power variant like shizou then its probably not great. Either way i hope you pack enough carddraw (not jyst the ecpensive ones)since getting 6 1 drops on the board on time is harder than you may expect.
@@Shimatzu95 Yeah I have about 13 card draw sources and the ripple 4 card. I always end up changing stuff after the first play session anyways because usually I overestimate how consistent it will be when building it
I think the ring's gonna be banned from modern so wait a bit and get it for cheap afterwards.
Seems reasonable. Chances it gets a ban in Commander are about 0, so proxy until a Modern ban isn't a bad idea
Agreed
Banning it in Modern will make it cheaper * not cheap
@@LouisKing995 IMHO it should be banned in every format, even in vintage, probably not going to happen but man can dream.
please add timestamps.
How does someone at 4 life survive 6 turns with glacial chasm?
If you're gonna play a 3-mana rock, my as well play one that also fixes all your mana. Ya'll poo poo on Chromatic Lantern but I'd take it over Commander's Sphere and others
Is 20 too much? Dollars? Life? Burpees?!
Will express VPN protect me for daily moxfield adds?
Now does romancing Shane mean a regular playthrough or is Mia speed running?
