Sure, but drafting the Robo-Rosewater cards is half of the entertainment! I know it's probably exhausting and would be too much effort, but a prerecord for the draft portion and the matches live seems like it would be the best "compromise"
Ohhh my how I love Jumpstart. Even cooler in your pod here irl, looks sick. Love the style of games with bad card but surprisingly good stuff sometimes too. Peak magic if you're in the mood!
I don’t know how well it would work, but it would be really cool to see a version of this where rather than starting completely fresh with two new packs whenever you lose, the loser instead adds a single pack to the pool of cards you can build a deck from- means that by the end of it everyone would have found archetypes/colours they like the most and the decks could get gradually more powerful.
I love how james had the same exact experience I had with jump start. I literally had just gotten told about allosaurus shepherd before I opened my jump start pack, got elves, and BOOM. Allosaurus shepherd. I was like "Oh hey look"
Jumpstart is cool but imagine having to play with Walls-Walls. There are many pairs that don't work or ,as Ben noted, are centered around pumping a tribe.
I appreciate their commitment to keeping things authentic, but the way Cam just stabbed Wheeler in the eye with a pencil for their permadeath rule was a bit rough to watch
Haven't seen the rest of the video yet, but this seems like the episode of Friday Nights where Graham can't stop winning Pack Wars waiting to happen.
Seems deece
And later it devolves into the episode about the Monarch
“Walls don’t care about trumpets” tell that to the city of Jericho
Congrats for making the funniest comment on the internet.
Cam. Even if it's a bit. You are the man. If it's not a bit. You are the man. You rock guy and please remember this and bring it with you.
Lol James just cold riffle shuffling a 75 dollar card with no sleeevs
Jumpstart would be a great format for robo-rosewater so the reactions to absurd cards wouldn't make drafts as difficult/long
Well apparently theres robo-rosewater commander decks, so we'll get to see something like that

Or Jump-Beej? Beej-start? I'd watch the heck out of that!
Daang, everyone brought their A-game this time! I haven't laughed this hard at Magic gameplay in a while, thank you!

This is amazing. Please keep doing these sleeveless, too. Brings back memories of tabletop magic as a kid.
1:06:29 "predatory minions. basically boomer memes" XD love you cam!
Excellent, as always. Thank you.
T'was a blast live so time run it back!!! Cheers 🙂
that first match I didn't know who to root for.
Jumpstart made my arcades commander deck so good. Towering titan, what a card
Shuffeling the Unicorn deck without sleeves was hard to watch. lol
It's going to get worse for you
That shoutout at the end is why I continue to watch these all the way trough.

This was a lot of fun. It'd be cool to see this format come back sometime again! :D
It's criminal that this video has so few likes, I love this and want to see more
I got so lucky with this set. I opened allosauraus Shepard, exquisite blood, phyrexian tower and the phyrexian swamp.
Nelson with the Pokemon Stadium references
Good to see James on these
If Anderson Cooper can be a silver fox, can Cameron be a salt and pepper otter? Ferret?
Permadeath nearly achieved at 00:43 seconds in, off to a great start.
28:26 Top, top, bottom is the new Duck, duck, goose.
😏
Sounds more like "smash or pass" except there is no pass
What about 5, 5, 5, 6.
Jump/Start? You love to see it!
WotC should have included tokens in these packs.
This is an amazing format
Nelson: I have become the unwilling Champion of this format.
Some randomisation and some construction seems best for Jump. I think drawing 2/3 themes or rotating after 2 wins is interesting
Jumpstart is the best product wotc has released in 10 years. Prove me wrong
Good news! Jumpstart is becoming a recurring product, replacing Theme Boosters
Mystery Booster is also way up there imho, but yeah Jumpstart kind of wins through ease of play.
...They should do a reprint of Mystery Booster.
I had to rewind when cam said body massage machine go! no one ever gets it when i make that reference. well done
I just realized that Cam is a leftie!! Let's go, lefties represent!
cam's deck actually had a lot of synergy that i wasn't expecting!
As always, he seems to be playing Aristocrats ;)
Gosh, this was fun
I love how james had the same exact experience I had with jump start. I literally had just gotten told about allosaurus shepherd before I opened my jump start pack, got elves, and BOOM. Allosaurus shepherd. I was like "Oh hey look"
Dunno where Ben found that floral shirt, but I do know I need to buy one.
Vampire Archeologist = Antiques Roadshow Ixalan.
This was a blast! Y'all rock 👍
Allosauraus Shepard is still like 50 bucks
Can't wait for Pro Tour Jumpstart when Dominaria drops
Damn, I love Ben's flower shirt.
So we are redoing the friday night pack wars skit I see.
The Pira-tours are ready to fucking rumble
Is anyone else hearing a faint high pitched ring while watch in this vod?
Wait, how aren't LRR people calling Assault Formation "Assform?"
So, Cam got to play Aristocrats and Wheeler got to play eggs?
Jumpstart is cool but imagine having to play with Walls-Walls. There are many pairs that don't work or ,as Ben noted, are centered around pumping a tribe.
Walls walls is amazing what do you mean
A fun one
So when Nelly pointed up it was like he was saying charge your phone idiot as my 15 percent notification came up.
I appreciate their commitment to keeping things authentic, but the way Cam just stabbed Wheeler in the eye with a pencil for their permadeath rule was a bit rough to watch
Turns out, natural Head-Knives make for good rogues.
how can nelsons 3/2 with a +1+1 counter die to a 2/2 ?
Bc it wasn't a 2/2, the creature that blocked it was a 3/3, battleground spirit
Alternate name for the Vampire Archaelogist deck: Yard Sale at Castle Dracula
NOOOOO DONT SHUFFLE THE ELVES SLEEVELESS NOT THE ALLOSAURUS SHEPHERD AHHHHH IT HURTS
Woo! I lorve Jampstrats
Shuffling a very pricey unicorn commander without sleeves...
It hurts...
Thieves guild enforcer is giving me old standard flashbacks. God I hate rogues.
"/rrr"
Er mah gerd mo mo no no stop stop
