My LGS was standing room only yesterday for commander free play, that was at 4 in the afternoon. Commander is thriving, and the work you gentlemen do is keeping this gravy train going!
you both are so positive and have very nice chemistry together. there's just this enjoyable aura to your videos - - basically, the channel is a home run and i watch each video as they come out. keep it up
I just love watching the growth of your guy’s respect for one another throughout this channel. You guys are both so intelligent and can have your differing opinions, but now you just appreciate each other and really look into both your thought processes. Truly a great friendship to watch grow.
Druid of Purification is so insane. It doesn't even target so those few times an artifact or enchantment has shroud/hexproof/protecrion you just don't care. And since you don't have targets you don't choose them on the stack, your opponents need to respond with it on the stack not knowing what will happen. It's great.
With the ol' Command Zone about like watching network television these days, with all the ads and filler, Id love to see these guys skyrocket to the tippy top of the YT Commander/EDH community
Just bought added 6 cards on this list to my cart on TCG as I was watching the video. I was just about to check out when you said "You can even just click the link in the description and go straight to check out." I somehow didn't know you could do it that way. Now I do and I just did it!
I really hope they keep making will cards in this will cycle. I hope they give that Planeswalker Will a will card as well. Will they give Will a will?!
Druid of purification is actually super easy to deal with. You just put three players put you super far ahead but didn’t touch their creatures which are all about to be aimed at you =D
@@NitpickingNerds WHICH IS ANOTHER PROBLEM! Seriously, the colors of chromatic dragons do not align with the philosophies and abilities of the color pie.
@@NitpickingNerds yeah, all of the chromatic dragons are straight-up evil. They all should've had black in their mana cost, save *maybe* the White Dragon, which could be Gruul, at best.
Guardian of Faith is really funny in the cyclonic rift thing where you let the Guardian faith go back to your hand while phasing the rest of your board. Let you double up on protection. Seems really fun.
So glad i preordered 8 druid of purificatons for a dollar a piece on cardkingdom the day it was revealed! Went up to 4 dollars a piece a few days later. Got 8 klauth's wills for 50 cents a piece as well!
One thing to consider on Druid of purification; it is going to result in ALL the artifact and enchantment removal being pointed at you, because nobody else will have any unless they make deals. This feels like one of the cards that is so strong it can backfire and result in the "Archenemy" situation, but for enchantments / artifacts.
@@daneburke6592 Re-read my comment, champ. They will have artifact and enchantment removal of their own, but they won't have any targets because the druid will clear everyone else's out. That leaves them with only one person to point their removal at. I'm not saying it's not a good card, but sometimes playing cards that are too powerful can have an undesired effect. And yeah, if you're playing mono-green creatures, that's fine, but there are a hell of a lot of decks with green that aren't 35-40 creature decks. Even if you are a creature deck, I bet you have some nice pieces like Great Henge or shaper's sanctuary; they will most definitely be gone if your druid sticks. I like cards that are strong, but weak enough that they are not going to be "Kill it or we lose" power level.
I don’t think dictate or grave pact works with the devil guy’s reanimated creatures since he states they exile instead of dying. Card is awesome regardless though.
Robe of stars might be a good include in my arcades walls deck. He's very vulnerable and the toughness boost might push a little extra damage through if I equip something else.
I have a Mazirek deck and I'm putting old gnawbone in there, because in that deck it reads "whenever you deal combat damage, put that many +1/+1 counters on EACH of your creatures. Oh and also make some mana"
I know it was on the list but I still think you find some prisoners is undervalued. The second half can also be used to make someone whiff a tutor or mess up any top deck manipulation an opponent might be setting up, while also have the possibility of extra value for you.
FYI the Lorcan / Dictate of Erebos dream doesn't really work since your warlocks don't die they exile instead. But if you have your own sac fodder still good
No mention for Phantom Steed? Seems like the perfect card for a blink deck. Get something EoT, untap and attack to retrigger the ETB, and when they kill it you get the original ETB agáín.
I just bought one for my Yarok deck (with Yarok you can even exile two creatures and create tokens of BOTH on each attack), I think it's an underrated gem.
I like the Druid, but I quite prefer growing rites. It replaces itself, it has a better colour casting cost (so it goes it more decks) and it only flips once it’s actually going to matter. And then it’s harder to remove once it flips. They both do have different applications though, hard to tell what’s better. You can tutor Druid way easier though, so I’m really not sure what’s better.
not to spoil nimber one, but iys so sweet to see WOTC having someone who seems really well versed in creating game theory dilemmas where it prevents a true nash equilibrium in decision making and makes the right decision vary pretty wildly game to game
You Find Some Prisoners is also ramp in mono red for two mana because it says you may PLAY that card so if you steal a great land such as Gaea's Cradle...Wow.
HELP WANTED: Hey community, I have a dilemma, and I need advice - I want to purchase one of the forgotten realms box sets, but I'm not sure if I should get a set booster box, a collector box, or a draft booster box; or, if I should just buy singles, get exactly what I want, and not get a bunch of trash cards. Should I go prerelease, or wait and hope prices drop? I'm not even sure what the going prices of those booster boxes should be - I see wildly fluctuating prices online. Any past experience as to which is "better" or more cost efficient? Or what the rates are/should be? Really, any constructive advice at all works. Thank you!
If the draft and set boosters are similar prices, you get WAY more rares and usable cards from the set booster. Standard rares and such usually settle immediately though, so if you only need 10-20 cards you can probably just wait until the set drops and pick them up for really cheap
You find some prisoners Instant speed answer to opponents top deck manipulation/tutors to top of library. I think that's the BEST part of this card, because they don't see it coming after they vamp/enlightened/worldly tutor or any other
Interesting thing with treasure vault, if you have an infinite colourless mana combo and that then it suddenly turns into an infinite coloured mana combo.
We love the loyal warhound 😍 we are still faithful to the knight of the white orchid but you can put this good boy everywhere 😍 what do you think of radiant solar?😁
You missed a trick on Druid of Purification - you don't choose the best permanent yourself. This is the Council's Judgment dilemma, where voting for the strongest permanent will likely see you exile just one thing. So, depending on positions at the table and what kind of threats are out there, you vote for the 2nd or 3rd strongest artifact/enchantment - that means there are 2 other players who will think "Oh my god, he didn't destroy the X", and they'll not really have any other option than to do so. Also, like Council's Judgment, this goes through hexproof/shroud/protection!
Klauth is cool but Old Gnawbone seems like a great fit in my Xenagos deck. What time is it? Time to go get infinite combat phases and double the power/toughness each combat phase and get MOAR TREASURE :P
What's your guys thoughts on grim hireling? It would be on my top 15 for sure. Can make up to 6 treasures a turn and can be used for emergency creature removal! It is also a rogue which is relevant creature type.
Lorcan can steal your opponent's creatures but their deaths won't subsequently trigger Dictate of Erebos effects because of his second ability, which exiles them instead of sending them to the yard. Still a good card
Hey nerds! Thanks for the content, will you do a budget upgrade video for the Bant precon? I'm interested in building it but I'm a bit unsure about which direction to go: equip, aura or both and I'd love to hear your opinion (even though I like auras a little more haha)
I don’t thin Druid of putrification is number one because your opponents can choose whether they they want to destroy a something or not but it will get things because if there are cards that they wanna get rid of then it’s good
11:34 if you where going to spend the mana on your turn to phase it what is the problem with holding it up? If you use it on your turn they can just respond and kill your creature….
Oh my what a suprise, the best card is green.... I played against it once and ofcourse is was a simic tempo deck who was running away with it. So a deals was made within seconds to not destroy anything else because it became a sort of archenemy.
Anyone knows if there is a decklist somewhere for this "steal your opponent's stuff" Valki/Tibalt deck? Preferably one after the rules change on cascade.
I wonder if Lolth's emblems will stack too? Like if you have three of them and you deal 1 damage to an opponent all of a sudden they're taking an extra 21

For druid of purification, I found a flawless strategy using council's judgment. Just start changing "4 for 1!" Works every time
Robe of stars might be a good include in my arcades walls deck. He's very vulnerable and the toughness boost might push a little extra damage through if I equip something else.
Reckless endeavor was in my planar portal deck, and I rolled a 7 and a 10. Felt good to wipe the board and get 10 treasures for doing it.
I have a Mazirek deck and I'm putting old gnawbone in there, because in that deck it reads "whenever you deal combat damage, put that many +1/+1 counters on EACH of your creatures. Oh and also make some mana"
Awesome video! A circle that could be better than Teleportation Circle is Story Circle, especially if an opponent is playing Voltron.
Booo
I know it was on the list but I still think you find some prisoners is undervalued. The second half can also be used to make someone whiff a tutor or mess up any top deck manipulation an opponent might be setting up, while also have the possibility of extra value for you.

Circle of dreams druid is better than the cradle since it will always tap for at least one mana!
Trackless endeavor definitely could be a strong boardwipe in my Krark deck

Super excited to make a korvold treasure deck with the new treasure cards in it
Guardian of the Faith with Robe of Stars phases out with it on still, it’s not like exile where things fall off.
I look at the "you find some prisoners" card and think that second ability looks like a great solution to an opponents vamp tutor effects
Building a Piru deck and Lorcan is gonna be so good!
I was wondering what you would think about Lolth after watching your Worth It Planeswalkers video. She's super strong!
Druid is also untargeted! Sick card!
You Find Some Prisoners is also ramp in mono red for two mana because it says you may PLAY that card so if you steal a great land such as Gaea's Cradle...Wow.
Lorcan seems like a not busted version of Tergrid
Definitely going to have to add that Robe of Stars to my wyleth deck!!!
