Hey everyone! Director J here. Happy 1 year anniversary! We’re so excited to bring your the very first MTG EDH episode of Secret Partners! We filmed this with Post waayyy back in April. Remember the episodes where the cameras overheated and got choppy?? This is from that same day. So it’s not your internet when Post & Michael’s camera is a little choppy for the first five minutes. And it’s not your computer when Joe & Evan’s camera is a little choppy about an hour in. Just our cameras suffering through a long shoot day with no AC. Thank you so much for hanging with us as we grow this channel. Much love and appreciation, -Director J & Joe
Glad to see another format played on YT. Good game! My pod has been playing 5-6 players for about 2 years now. Kingdoms is another really fun format along with star. My play group is working on a dnd inspired game style that has been pretty epic so far. Working on the details and if they are ever ironed out I'll definitely pass it along. One thing I recommend with more than 4 is a round table. It really makes keeping track of what is on the battlefield a bit more feasible considering how crazy things can get.
For home play, 100% a round table. I definitely didn’t have the cameras to cover a round table on set. I coulda used an extra two cameras for reverse coverage as it was. Will be better covered next time!
@@jasonballantyne3021 for sure I get it, we tried once with one camera as a test and it totally failed. I think that we devised that if there were two cameras in the middle facing down at the table you could split the tabletop and have it presented 3 on top and 3 on bottom and maybe have to do some video cropping (in a 6 player game). We were thinking cheap with another 2 cross shots for the players, but 4 would probably be ideal, but then you've got cameras everywhere, and then audio I'm sure can get rough. Thought you guys did a good job though and look forward to more.
I do like that you guys shows the version of the played card and not just any version of the card that was played. For me as a budget player wo loves these alternative Versions a lot it brins my inner Monk to peace :)
Hahahaha Post managed really good the heavy focus he received during the game...I think the other players were worried he would combo in any moment. Nice game 4 sure!
Post Malone got me to follow like four magic pages and bust out my decks again after two years. Thanks for bouncing aroundpages! Looking forward to kicking your ass one day ;)
Haha hell yeah! Come through to our discord if you have a webcam setup! We play games there through spelltable all the time! www.patreon.com/tabletopjocks
Nice play mates lol with my name on them lol, its cool didnt know someone else had it like me , been being called Mythic since high school days love the show btw
This is great… more like this. My friends and I used to play a 5 player mode called kings. I think the way you guys are friends and enjoy politicking you guys would really enjoy it. 5 players 1 King - role is reviled and starts with 50 life 1 knight - role is hidden defends the king. The king wins the knight wins if the king loses the knight loses 1 Assassin - role is hidden and wants the king dead if the king dies the assassin wins 2 bandits - roles are hidden and needs the assassin dead before killing the king to win. Both bandits can win this way as long as the assassin is dead and the king dies after. If the bandits kill the king while the assassin is alive the assassin takes the game.
I know this video is older, but am I the only one that noticed when Teferi got swords-ed, the Rhystic cast trigger would've resolved first (so if that card really would've helped, it would've been in post's hand before swords exiled Teferi)?
Thank you for showcasing such an awesome multiplayer variant! My playgroup often ends up having 5 players, and i can't wait to try this social deduction/mtg mashup! Thank you as always for the great content and entertainment!
Glad you enjoyed it! Seems like people didn’t know about this variant! I’m hoping it can spread out to more playgroups so people can see just how much fun it is!
It doesn't say 'target creature' on the card, that's the difference. So even the teferi's protection wouldn't prevent this, cause the choice was made. Almost every clone creature has this wording.
I like the idea of this and it played out well but IMO and in my experience 5 player games don’t really work so well. It’s weird because you wouldn’t think the jump from four to five would be such a big deal but oddly it is. ALSO HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE JOCKS OF THE TABLE TOP! Thanks for an awesome year of commander content.
5 player games and up are rough but hopefully this is a way to show everyone it can happen easily and effectively! Also thank you for the belated birthday shout out! Thank you for being there and loving the content!
@@TabletopJocksI thought this game worked amazing! I loved the banter most. Maybe 5 and up work best with an established group but I’ve only done it with rando’s at my LGS and that’s been crunchy. At least you’re showing us that it is possible.
It's annoying how Sean felt like he had to be apologetic to Posty for playing Farewell. Like, it was a perfectly reasonable play and why commander is such a great format - if someone rolls up with a cedh deck and develops a quick boardstate, it's gonna get dealt with. Beautiful.
In today's episode, we'll find out if Joe can remember how his commander works and if he'll gain 60 more life than he should've and alter the game like last time
This was super fun, but, Posty, I love you: Jin-Gataxias is never "just chilling" and while Teferi is the master of chill, nobody likes him either, haha.
i like playing with secret partner. if you ever played "bang the dice game" you can play it that way as well. a sheriff, deputies, outlaws, renegade. very very fun way to play and its a lot like secret partners
SPOILER!! I may have just missed something but why is Post dead at 1:32:30? Couldn't he block Elesh Norn and the Sun Titan with Ulamog and his copy of Sun Titan?
Ohhh right you had greaves, yea I think they were gone by then. Great game regardless, wasn't trying to knit pick, I swear! Just making sure I was understanding everything correctly. Thanks for reaching out to clear that up.
I have a episode request for y'all! OG EDH. Where you have three generals and one Commander and you can't play your commander without having your three generals on the battlefield. The only restriction is that you have to have a 3 or more colors in your Commanders identity.
Hey everyone! Director J here. Happy 1 year anniversary! We’re so excited to bring your the very first MTG EDH episode of Secret Partners!

great ep broooooooooo
Great editing! This is Evan btw ;)
@@ComediansofWrestlingPodcast Dan! Thank you!
@@lillylawrence3934 great game Evan! And thank you man. You’re part of the two hardest episodes I’ve had to cut. Y’all are too funny
@@jasonballantyne3021I’m sorry to have made your job that much more difficult. But, then world is a better place because of it.
Wildly entertaining episode, watching Joe and Post getting more and more paranoid over the course of the game was hilarious
It was so hilariously nerve racking 🤣🤣🤣
The chaos of this was entertaining as hell! Post slow descending into madness is amazing
🥳🥳🥳
🙌
More of these games!! It’s peak entertainment. Definitely going to have to bring this to my playgroup, we recently added a fifth.
That’s awesome!!! Please take it to your new playgroup and let us know how it goes!!! 🥳🥳🥳
That entire opening was so well done holy hell.
Thank you!!! Jason is crushing on the production side!!!
Thank you so much!!
My playgroup is 5 people most of the time. I'm going to introduce this variation of commander to them! Keep up the great content y'all!!!
Enjoy! We’re so glad you dig the style. Our whole play group loves this format so much, we are so happy to share it with y’all
We play this as “King, Bodyguard, two assassins and the Jester”. The King is revealed and starts with 50 life.
YES! So glad you guys decided to post a variant of commander!
We definitely want to do more of these! This was such a fun episode!
Post totally got Joe with the “suke con”. It got me too, lol!
🤣🤣🤣
Bruh out loud I said "Bushido brown just went face to face with The Hateocracy"
Glad to see another format played on YT. Good game!

That was such an incredibly fun game to watch!
That voice crack from Joe at 33:58 perfectly contains all the emotional damage he took from the Deez Nuts joke.
This was Joe's bar mitzvah
Mazel Tov! 🎉
By far the most entertaining episode ever! I love that post is such a good sport and so hilarious!
Great playgroup, enjoyed watching the twist on the secret partner too!
Thank you! We’re hoping it catches on with more playgroups!!!
THIS!! EXACTLY what commander games should be
So nice to see posty back, good show as always! Thanks for having us
Thank you for watching and supporting! 🥳
It's so cool seeing Joe interacting with people in the comments. What a legend. Keep up the great work!
What a beautiful game this was!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
This was supper fun to watch
Loved this format of secret partners...so much fun.
We are loving that everyone is having a great time!
That DS ad with the Dockside is hilarious af and secret partners? I like
That was so entertaining!
This was great. Soooo much fun to watch.
Crazy fun to watch!!!!
Post Malone got me to follow like four magic pages and bust out my decks again after two years. Thanks for bouncing aroundpages! Looking forward to kicking your ass one day ;)

Super entertaining :) Loved every second of it. Cheers fellas!
Thanks for the love! It was so fun filming this! We’ve got plenty more in store!!!
This was an awesome game I am going to copy this for my play group. That Farewell was brutal sorry for the board state Post hahaha
Please do! This format is so much fun!!!
One day I am gonna play at one of these games. They look so fun.
Crazy game. Dang mono blue got hated lol. But lots of laughs and that is what it is all about !
Catch y’all on the flippity !
Holy shit what a line up!! Can’t wait to watch this later. Leaving my like now :)
Poor Posty just got hit by everyone. 😂 I love these games with Post. He’s just such a cool dude. Thanks for the video! 🤙🏽
Was so confused when I read the post but this seems dope
*Finally I've been waiting for POSTY to smoke a 🚬 in a video it just seems more genuine and casual that way.. glad it wasn't edited*
best game of magic the gathering I have ever seen on youtube. Couldn't stop laughing at the comments and the banter.
First time seeing a pod with more than 4 players, and it's stacked with my faves!
Nice play mates lol with my name on them lol, its cool didnt know someone else had it like me , been being called Mythic since high school days love the show btw
mats
Such a fun way to play! Want to try this!
It’s so much fun! You should definitely give it a go!!!
I love Jared true heir so the was a treat
Happy new years! I wish the main man Blackneto the best in wealth and in health! Godbless my man!
🥳🎉🕺🏾🙌🏾 Same right back to you! Thank you!!!
"Magic: the Gathering is the best" is MY LINE. BITING MY FLOW
Actually good group feel! Love it happy for you joe
Thank you for watching and supporting the show!
Sean coming in like wildcard Charlie cutting the breaks of the game
i love how every deck i have seen post play has the same infinite mana combo in.
This is great… more like this.
My friends and I used to play a 5 player mode called kings. I think the way you guys are friends and enjoy politicking you guys would really enjoy it.
5 players
1 King - role is reviled and starts with 50 life
1 knight - role is hidden defends the king. The king wins the knight wins if the king loses the knight loses
1 Assassin - role is hidden and wants the king dead if the king dies the assassin wins
2 bandits - roles are hidden and needs the assassin dead before killing the king to win.
Both bandits can win this way as long as the assassin is dead and the king dies after. If the bandits kill the king while the assassin is alive the assassin takes the game.
Small sequencing error at 21:00
Post should have drawn before swords even resolved
This episode was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 I was dying of laughter the whole time well done
Hell yeah
Thank you so much!
@@jasonballantyne3021 of course your guys' content is awesome and always entertaining
Appreciate the love!!! 🙌🏾
@@TabletopJocks Yee no prob
Great episode 🔥
Thank you! We are definitely trying to spread the word on Secret Partners! 🥳
I need to know where they got the shock land cutouts from!! I need those in my life.
LOVED watching this! So much back and forth and so much FUN had between everyone! Can't wait for Patreon players! (maybe me??!?! :P )
Thank you!!! So glad you enjoyed! We will get there one day!
Bang the card game (which is already western themed MTG artifact decks) is built around this secret role mechanic and is so fun.
god id love to play with posty just once my decks suck but the thrill of havin fun just be soo cool
I know this video is older, but am I the only one that noticed when Teferi got swords-ed, the Rhystic cast trigger would've resolved first (so if that card really would've helped, it would've been in post's hand before swords exiled Teferi)?
I did not know this format existed, time to get a group and play
Please do! It’s so much fun!!!
Reminds me of playing sheriff edh
Dont think ive seen anyone do 5 player games. More channels need this
“Everybody is here in my home!” 😂😂😂😂😂 great episode
Thank you for the hospitality Post! 😂
Thank you dude!!
56:34 You can keep the Cataclismic Gearhulk as your artifact, as well as another creature.
did Evan Ferrante betray?
Im sure he had already played a land this turn : 1:31:11 *shrugging*
But great game ! And still amazing content Jojo! ❤
"Bang" Commander looks to be a pretty cool way to play.
Thank you for showcasing such an awesome multiplayer variant! My playgroup often ends up having 5 players, and i can't wait to try this social deduction/mtg mashup! Thank you as always for the great content and entertainment!
Glad you enjoyed it! Seems like people didn’t know about this variant! I’m hoping it can spread out to more playgroups so people can see just how much fun it is!
I've played Assassin edh a bunch but never heard of secret partners. Kinda similiar but cool twist
It's one of my dreams to be able to play magic with the posty 🙏
You should try "Kingdom" there are different roles with reveal abilities. Damn cool
Ooo every time I watch this I feel like i wanna hop in, I'm no where near popular enough to even be considered though 😂
Omg Joe what was in your hand 😭😭
Awesome video,
Thank you for the love! 🥳
Do this more often...so awesome...
We were hoping y’all would love it. There’s so many fun EDG variants, and we’d love to keep this fresh. Look for more variants this year!
Can someone please explain the phantasm image copy while sun titan has hex proof to me? I’m lost
It doesn't say 'target creature' on the card, that's the difference. So even the teferi's protection wouldn't prevent this, cause the choice was made.
Almost every clone creature has this wording.
Great video! Congrats on the one year anniversary! Keep it up!!
I like the idea of this and it played out well but IMO and in my experience 5 player games don’t really work so well. It’s weird because you wouldn’t think the jump from four to five would be such a big deal but oddly it is. ALSO HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE JOCKS OF THE TABLE TOP!

Wich app are they using for the lite totals?
Oh this one happened a minute ago 😅 I think we used Carbon but we use Moxtopper now
Yall need to do this game style more often.
We’re so glad y’all are enjoying it! There’s definitely gonna be more Secret Partners this year!
Post with the fire joke turn 2! Long game, but very fun to watch
That's what we like to hear
It's annoying how Sean felt like he had to be apologetic to Posty for playing Farewell. Like, it was a perfectly reasonable play and why commander is such a great format - if someone rolls up with a cedh deck and develops a quick boardstate, it's gonna get dealt with. Beautiful.
Very similar to Secret Kingdoms (personal favorite) and Treachery EDH variants. Both of which involve teams and their own unique role cards.
In today's episode, we'll find out if Joe can remember how his commander works and if he'll gain 60 more life than he should've and alter the game like last time
LITERALLY I was like doesn't it have lifelink???
This was super fun, but, Posty, I love you: Jin-Gataxias is never "just chilling" and while Teferi is the master of chill, nobody likes him either, haha.
This is amazing 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Ooooo Kathril is being played!? This is gonna get good
I’m a simple man, I see land destruction I like the video.
Exactly, when I started playing magic and encountered LD for the 1st time it wiped the floor with me. I’m in love with the concept ever since
And this is why I play so much blue. To keep all y’all land arsonists in check 😜 thank you both for hanging with us!
Table Top Glocks would be a completely different show but still entertaining. :)
The Deathsprout miss-play is killing me!! Cruise wouldn’t of had enough land to equip helm to Norn and swing lethal at Post😭😭
Yoooo that comment got got Joe stunned, Posty got eeem.
did Posty not tuck his top back in when the farewell happened?!?!?
Yep I’m building a Teferi deck now
i like playing with secret partner. if you ever played "bang the dice game" you can play it that way as well. a sheriff, deputies, outlaws, renegade. very very fun way to play and its a lot like secret partners
SPOILER!!
I may have just missed something but why is Post dead at 1:32:30? Couldn't he block Elesh Norn and the Sun Titan with Ulamog and his copy of Sun Titan?
I had two Elesh Norns thanks to Helm of the Host and a Sun Titan. Post only had the two blockers.
@@nottomcruise But only one of the Elesh Norns could attack, right? Just the copy had haste
@@TheJardis that sounds right. Cause I didn't have my lightning greaves anymore. Right? I forgot what Post's blocking situation was exactly.
Ohhh right you had greaves, yea I think they were gone by then. Great game regardless, wasn't trying to knit pick, I swear! Just making sure I was understanding everything correctly. Thanks for reaching out to clear that up.
@@TheJardis all good man! Hope you enjoyed the entertaining banter and gameplay nevertheless.
What app are they useing?
1:18:25 yeah that’s miss play because it doesn’t gain haste because not on the card actually
Postie needs to stop putting so many artifacts in his deck. sheeeeeeesh.
I have a episode request for y'all! OG EDH. Where you have three generals and one Commander and you can't play your commander without having your three generals on the battlefield. The only restriction is that you have to have a 3 or more colors in your Commanders identity.
Oh! I’ve never even heard of this! This sounds dope!!!
@@TabletopJocks let's try this!
For real this would be fun to see this is the EDH I played and the format I got into MTG with
@@nottomcruiseoh we’re definitely trying this next time! Got a fresh new Nekusar deck I need to try out.
You finally did it! A 5 player game!
We talked about it for so long and now it’s finally here!!! 🥳🥳🥳
What was the app being used on the tablet?
The app is called Carbon! It’s really cool and can support up to 6 player games as well!
Post should have swung with at least one of his creatures when he had Sun Quan out. Nobody could have blocked Horsemanship.
I love how the odd 5th person is actually in the game. Always find the spectator person to be an awkward 5th wheel but this one was great.
Keep it up @Tablejocks
Appreciate it Michael! Thanks for hanging with us!
Great episode, awesome game with lots of highs and lows. Ya'll really stay picking on Post, IN HIS OWN DOJO?! Keep up the excellent content!
sometimes, that's how the cookie crumbles 🤷♂️
I keep receipts to homie! Lol
