Thank you for this bit of knowledge. I noticed his card name was a combination of a bunch of the old tribes, but I never got the time to read past the Brothers' War so I was wondering what was up with that.
Classic Richard using that to his advantage. In all honestly it's kind of a bad example for others. Richard reacting like that teaches others to act the same when in reality it wasn't stack and just interaction heavy.
Kor, Vec and Dal are all Rathi tribes that used their combined names to give as a title to a prophesied savior that would help them fight Volrath, the Rathi Evincar. The Oracle en-Vec thought Gerrard Cappashen was the Korvecdal, but the uprising he led failed and he fled, and the Oracle realized Eladamri was the actual prophesied Korvecdal.
"The lesson I've learned about playing hatebears is that I need to play stax." I actually liked your deck a lot Crim. It just needed a better finisher.
Yeah him saying “oh no I can’t believe anyone can deal with crim” right after casting generous gift when there is a sundial of the infinite that was being used for removal, a board full of creatures, reconnaissance on the board…like sometimes Seth’s threat assessment is very questionable.
Loving the mixed image of Gala Greeters! I had to look it up to be sure, that there was no strange "we use a german word in english mtg names" again :D Gala-Begrüßer!! Lets go! Greetings from germany ❤🔥
Yeah, Lifegain decks need to be beaten down early. Letting Seth out from under the stax/hate bears let him combo back in baby. I really liked that Crim deck. Neat interactions with Phelia. Gonna wanna build it to annoy my playgroup now. :)
Crim is the hero we all deserve :) love a miserable stax game in commander when playing with the right friends! One of my fondest commander memories have us under a winter moon from 1am-3/4am In the food court of Metropolitan Market in west Seattle as we discussed all the things under the sun. So much love and laughter in your lives and treasure every moment with those priceless people in your lives :)
Super-invested in this one! Great game! I was convinced Phil was going to win it, but everybody had excellent plays including some that I wouldn't have thought of myself
Rulings for sundial on scryfall says that beginning of nex end step triggers will trigger on the next turn if you activate the ability to skip the current one. Should Richard have gotten omenpath back on Seth’s end step? Multitasking while watching may have missed something
So the trick is you need to wait until the trigger to return the card (in this case the Omenpath) is on the stack and then use Sundial to end the turn and it will say gone forever, if you do it at any other time it will return on the next end step.
Wow this was a super funny commander clash ep! The grade 10 foil goyf was AMAZING And that double shifting woodlands boompile play was hilarious too. As usual, Richard's 100% winrate on the coinflip making it work xD loved everyone's deck. Never thought of using the doggo as removal, sorin was scary af and phil's and richard's both survived like 5 wraths and still kept putting pressure. Love you all
at 8:30 i'm not 100% sure on this but i think richards omenpath would've come back on the end step of seth turn, because the wording of the commander is " [...] on the beginning of NEXT end step".
The Korvecdal was a legendary figure from prophecy who would unite the Kor, Vec, and Dal tribes against the Phyrexians. Originally they thought that Gerrard was the Korvecdal, but eventually it was discovered that Eladrami was the true Korvecdal
It could be interesting to see a commander game where you rule-0 that everyone needs to play an instant or sorcery as their commander. So you can cast it as many times as you want, but it costs 2 more to cast each time.
What Crim was doing wrong is that when his deck is doing its thing it's interacting with his opponents. Commander thrives on its only form of interaction being winning or comboing someone to (near) death.
Wrong. The interaction pieces were fine. It was the combination of sundial making phelia hard removal, and the multiple sort-of-stax pieces, that made the deck frustrating without actually moving the game forward much or doing enough to lock the table out to get far enough ahead to win or at least get another player or two killed first.
He really takes advantage of the lack of removal from the other players. Hatebears and stax counter a lack of removal very, very effectively, and everyone hard focuses Phil even when he's at less than half the life of other players with cards in hand. If Crim played to win more, he'd dominate the table, but he always goes for the meme play or shutting down another player even when it's pointless.
@@themonsoon117 More like Crim knows if he went harder with his decks it would make him the #1 threat and would just take Phil's place in dying first every game so I'm pretty sure he does it on purpose lmao
@@JulioDRai He died first this game, and it happens plenty often. Whenever you play stax pieces like that, it's assumed that's going to happen. Imo, if he focused on eliminating players instead of spreading the damage evenly, his winrate would spike.
Phil running out of gas is exactly why you shouldn't play "Elves" with Eladamri. I'm not saying you shouldn't put elves in your deck. You naturally put in tons. But elves shouldn't be the theme.
Wait, isn’t it not allowed for Seth to have Lurrus as part of the 99, don’t you have to make Companions in the companion zone with their deck specifications as well? please correct me if I’m wrong.
On this week of "Punt or Bluff?" it's bring your pet to work day! Will Crim show us the goodest doggo or will Richard adopt a cute little Tarmogoyf? Tune-in to find out!
In this video: Renowned Blood Moon player has a mental breakdown about non-basic land hate and multiple players with decades of play experience between them still don't understand what Stax is. ❤
Fun game but the reason why Crim was out first is that he did hatebears wrong. He tried to have hatebears with a dog as commander and as much as I love dogs that does not work. he needed to go with Kudo. Not only is more on flavor but also gives you access to fun cards like Gaddock Teeg , Collector Ouphe and also the hexproof givers like Shalai. There are other fun things like having Elesh Norn make so nobody else can have creatures. You can also play nature's revolt and natural affinity with EN in play so nobody else has lands. If we're gonna do hatebear staxy things might as well go all the way
Richard pulling out his graded tarmo was so funny. Bro waited so long to show the OG boys
and it was a sponsor segment too😂😂
Korvecdal isn't his last name, it is a title, Eladrami is the person who united the Kor, Vec and the Dal tribes to overthrow the Phyrexians.
Ye! Prophesized hero, the Korvecdal was thought to be Gerrard for a while. Turned out to be Eladamri.
@@Alikaoz yeah but it didnt quite matter by the time anyone figured it out, IIRC it was when the overlay happened and the Rath rebellion got chucked into the coalition

“every turn I go from Crim’s our hero to Crim’s archenemy”
Richard has discovered the essence of playing with Crim
Phil's "Tough luck!" was so good lol, glad to see my king surviving longer than the 5th turn
I'm glad Richard finally got to play the boomer Jund commander.
Richard's gradded 10 Tarmogoyph being used as a token is the most hilarious money flex ive wver seen in a deck lmao
“DOWN SHIFTED TO A TOKEN.. we’re at 4” this is pure comedy
If it was ‘t for post Malone using the one of one ring as a treasure token, this would be one of the funniest uses of a graded card
Of course Crim would see Phelia and decide to turn it into prioritizing being removal rather than flickering his own cards... Classic Crim lol
Classic Richard using that to his advantage. In all honestly it's kind of a bad example for others. Richard reacting like that teaches others to act the same when in reality it wasn't stack and just interaction heavy.
"It's not stax, just interaction heavy" - every stax player, ever.
@@rylanchampion5972it’s an ongoing joke in the playgroup to call things stax that aren’t stax, they aren’t being serious they’ve said this many times

@@jamescampbell2353no, Marit Lage wasn't involved
wait wait wait wait... Richard spent the first 3 turns ramping and then cast a board wipe??? No one could have predicted this genius play!
Crim holding his doggo in the thumbnail is peak
it's a shame Crim has to be there to ruin it
"Dad. Please let me go. You're embarrassing me. I feel smothered."
Seth is a snake for that generous gift. Never lift the stax off your opponents back
Seth did Phil dirty with that generous gift!
"The lesson I've learned about playing hatebears is that I need to play stax."
I actually liked your deck a lot Crim. It just needed a better finisher.
Bro Seth’s manabase 💀 they really need to do that land base comparison episode
29:57 "Phil is having the time of his life" hahaha finally!😂
LOL at Richard's slabbed goyf hahaha 😂
Richard's Goyf rant has to be a Short, lol.
*Thanks for the Content!*
Crim seeing Phelia and making the deck as miserable as that is so on brand it is crazy lol
Richard- “yeah well what if there were panharmonicon tokens?”
Seth- “don’t you threaten me with a good time!”
Akroma's will on the gaffer was a hilarious way to end the game!
The classic Phil untapping with 5 permanents: "are we dead, Phil?"
Loved the balance of decks this game, felt like everyone had a good footing and was doing things :)
Boompile is such a hack when you always win the flip like Richard
Seth generous gifting phil and then complaining about crim winning is just delulu 😂

This was an absolutely fantastic bit.
Ok. Crim's deck is kinda sick. Noice, also cute dog

Yeah, Lifegain decks need to be beaten down early. Letting Seth out from under the stax/hate bears let him combo back in baby. I really liked that Crim deck. Neat interactions with Phelia. Gonna wanna build it to annoy my playgroup now. :)
imagine when crim realizes you can untap with recon to give pseudovigilance post damage
The vibes of this game were fantastic!
Crim wins the flavor win by having his puppers lounging in the background :))
I love Crim for putting his pupper as his commander.
Crim is the hero we all deserve :) love a miserable stax game in commander when playing with the right friends!

That was a fun game to watch. Knowing Crim was going to use Phelia how he does in timeless.
Super-invested in this one! Great game! I was convinced Phil was going to win it, but everybody had excellent plays including some that I wouldn't have thought of myself
49:39 Now I understand why Poor Phil is always hesitant to make deals
That 10/10 Mint Tarmogoyf was simultaneously gorgeous and ridiculous. A+ for the laughs!
I enjoy Phil's videos so much that his voice gets me to pay attention.
Reconnaissance can bdbused to untap you creatures after damage, while still in combat, provided you can target them @crim
The graded 10 tarmogoyf token is the best!
Loving these MH3 commander vids
I'm always down for some Elfball

that graded goyf reveal was AMAZING 🤣
Only 9 minutes in the game Crim is playing brutally lol I love it. I did not expect this from his deck, great plays.

Crim: "Until end of turn, my life total can't change..."
Crim's life total: *Changes*
Remember that you can untap your creatures at the end of combat with Reconnaisance
the phelia art was hilarious. love weird pet pictures
Crim trying to argue he isn't playing stacks
Blows up all non basics he possibly can and only let's basics untap
As far as I can tell, he's just helping you untap your lands by turning your nonbasics into basics
Seth Emory missing the 1/1 off the fetch immediately after reading the text was pretty funny.
The pettineess reached every level here. EVERY LEVEL, Richard. That Goyf Token did not harm you actively.
Oh my god, the graded Tarmogoyf token bit was hilarious.
I really am *genuinely* curious to hear anyone's argument as to how on earth Winter Moon is not a stacks card

what an underrated card, shoutout Richard
Wow don't see mono colors that often, good on you guys. Also now it's "what doesn't grow dies, and what dies--why it's the tarmogoyf"
What Crim was doing wrong is that when his deck is doing its thing it's interacting with his opponents. Commander thrives on its only form of interaction being winning or comboing someone to (near) death.
I don't know how clear Wizards have to make it so that people get this, they even called interacting with other players "Crimes".
Wrong. The interaction pieces were fine. It was the combination of sundial making phelia hard removal, and the multiple sort-of-stax pieces, that made the deck frustrating without actually moving the game forward much or doing enough to lock the table out to get far enough ahead to win or at least get another player or two killed first.
Winter Moon is pretty brutal, otherwise I think Crim's deck is pretty sweet.
This is how EDH was back around 2009. 12 board wipes each game and games took like 2+ hours. Was great times
I am excited to join the UA-cam MTG community and meet more people in the space! ❤ being a small creator is big tough and yall are an inspiration!
Welcome!
I cant decide which is bigger, Richard playing a graded Tarmogoyf or him playing 3 basics.
Both.
Must be exhausting to play against Crim every week.

Tgoyf lived long enough to become the villain haha.
It was a beautiful rant
I have no idea why my brain thought that when Fiend Hunter hit Heliod, Seth was going to pass the card to Crim at home.
Oh god, yeah, I've been caught out by "one spell a turn" and trying to flip a Gobakhan on Arena, it feels so bad lol. Would have been hilarious here.
awww Crim's corgi art is so cute!
Very modern Death and taxes, soul sisters, elves, and midrange jund
Seth using the generous gift on Phil’s permanent would have had me salty if I was Phil.
All is dust goes crazy in card type tribal 👍
Dude I feel so bad for Phil I lost count of the amount of times they board wiped that man😂
The whole Richard boomer Goyf segment was actually peak
This was a great game. I never knew who was going to take it.
This is the second time i watched a video where someone introduced Disa as "the relentless"
"I've been saying since turn 3, crim is winning this game" Yet gives phil the generous gift.
Wait, isn’t it not allowed for Seth to have Lurrus as part of the 99, don’t you have to make Companions in the companion zone with their deck specifications as well? please correct me if I’m wrong.
I feel like the sundial should've been an early target because it was enabling repeatable removal.
lol Crim helping Phil pop off is hilarious.
15:30 the best moment of the video honestly lol

Thanks to Phils love of value, we got to see Crim become a full on stax player.

Jund Goyf Richard eating a Bojuka Bog etb... The bog's revenge!
Crim's deck is so cool!
Love me some soul sisters! My first modern deck was a soul sisters martyr deck. I love lifegain.
