Look at it this way, we all just want to watch more of the high quality content we're used to seeing on this channel. Thoracle cut it short and left us all wanting more!
Well that is totally fair, and we appreciate that perspective. I truly hope that a single instance of showcasing Thoracle for the first time in nearly 18 months isn't mistaken as some sort of villainous incident. At the end of the day, our good friend included those cards in the deck and we had fun playing. That's what matters for us. "If you had fun you won." There was no salt at our table and we still had a fun time with each other, a win in our book. :)
This was such an awesome game to be ruined by thoracle combo man. You hate to see it. Hopefully moving forward this does not become the norm because you guys have an awesome channel.
@@TripsAhoy It is, yse you are right, but it is cheap as hell in the meta and the power level this channel has displayed with its previous games tbh...
LMFAO...Not to be that person who complains about a Thoracle win but usually in like, say, in an high power Orvar list or in cEDH I get it, but really? In Yarok? You needed Thoracle+Consult for the win? Of all things Yarok could do...Obviously you do you and not saying "No more Thoracle+Consult in the channel!" or anything like that...just was a bit uninspiring is all. And BK, you call it a "combo win" but it's a 1-2 punch that goes in literally any Dimir deck. Yarok has some great actual combos, wish they had tried going for something like that. Anyways, good showing of Meren and Henzie though...Also, sick setup, I think it's the first time we are getting to see it.
That's fair. Perhaps you'd enjoy some of the other 55 videos we have, none of which include Thoracle! :) But totally agreed, some cards clearly upset people at the table. But we still had fun, which is the point of our channel. Thanks for the input!
Oh, late comment for BK: When helping my friend build Meren, one of our better choices was Heartless Summoning. If you're not running it already, I highly recommend it. All x/1s in your hand with etb and on death triggers can go off twice a turn for extra cheap.
That's fair. Perhaps you'd enjoy some of the other 55 videos we have, none of which include Thoracle! :) But yeah, looks like Thassa's Oracle generates some salt...
@@mostlycasualcommander not really the attitude I thought we’d see from this channel ngl. Yes Thoracle can be a touchy subject, tho no need to come off the way you are here imo.
My only issue with thor combo is that it has become *the* wincon in any deck with dimir colors. As long as it doesn’t become the only way people are winning (or nearly) i have no problem with it, especially on turn 7+.
I'm about 7 months late here but just wanted to say this is some grade A commentary and look forward to watching more of your videos (even if, as others mentioned, thoracle put an upsetting and abrupt end to what was a lot of great interaction)
I believe people are overexaggerating the ending. Thassa combo for the win is valid play, and it's only been featured once so far in this channel as far as I know. You all need to calm down.
Who are these … hoomans playing with cards? As always, love the game and the humor. Bummer to see a Thoracle win given the type of games usually seen on this channel.
I largely try to avoid them as well. If I do play one in a deck it's exactly one in a deck and I try to make sure that there's only one very specific board state needed to make it work. We play casual so we're not exactly running around with a bunch of tutors and what not. I like to play durdle decks and my playgroup likes to play fast "turn creature sideways" decks so in that case it does help balance it a little bit.
Great game always enjoy ur videos, no matter if its a combo win or not. Meren was owning this game until thoracle consult 😁, also henzie was becoming a little scary
Hey glad ya'll like it! I don't remember what it's called but I pretty much only get playmats from www.inkedgaming.com/collections/playmats. Sorry I can't pinpoint it, but feel free to search through their playmats!
Cool game. Your channel is great, and I just wanted to say that as long as your play group is fine with it, then the Thoracle wasn’t an issue. Keep up the awesome content!
Thanks for that! We have a divided audience today for sure. We had fun during the game and that's what was important. We hope that everyone enjoys playing the game we love so much. Thanks again!
Cool game, really enjoyed it, but as other said, that wincon was very unti-climatic. It isnt bad to win with thoracle, it is bad if the table is not prepared for it. Those other decks were more in the casual side of commander and that combo is cEDH stuff. Bad move Yarok player, bad move!
Yeah Thassa's Oracle clearly generates some salt. Who would have known!? Perhaps you'd enjoy some of the other 55 videos we have, none of which include Thoracle! :)
The thoracle win was lame but I did enjoy the game till then and busterkins trying to pronounce card names and of course meatball.. plus the live banter
Did anyone mention they didn't like the Thoracle wincon yet? 🙃 Fun game with some odd plays. Sorcery speed terminate and poor selection for Mimeoplasm.
Why is meren playing the signet the talismans are alot better, one damage is nothing to get either black or green paying one mana to get your colors makes you invest alittle more them you should have to
Ugh can’t stand thassa’s oracle. Such an unexciting and braindead way of winning. I was enjoying the video until I saw that. It was such a fun game too. Shame.
Thoracie is absolutely not casual at all lmao. I don't care what excuse a player comes up with for it being in their deck but how anyone could feel accomplished with a Yarok deck playing a spell slinger combo to win is beyond me. Very anti-clamactic ending that won't make too many people happy honestly.
Laaaaaaame. Yarok player does nothing until he tutors for more tutors to combo out with Thoracle. Get outta here! I wanted to see how Meren v Henzie played out. I believe Meren had the advantage. I would have used the Plaguecrafter to edict out the board and hands until opponents were out of options.
I think we'll start calling this "The Thassa's Oracle Incident of 2023."

I still love you, but you got spoilers in the pinned comment!
You're not wrong. But to be fair, if this one wasn't pinned, you'd just be seeing another commenter share how much they hate Thassa's Oracle, amiright
@@mostlycasualcommander fair enough. I'll go tell them I still love them, too.
Another "Great game, not a great ending" in this tread
This was such an awesome game to be ruined by thoracle combo man. You hate to see it. Hopefully moving forward this does not become the norm because you guys have an awesome channel.
So much hate for that combo. It's part of the game.
@@TripsAhoy It is, yse you are right, but it is cheap as hell in the meta and the power level this channel has displayed with its previous games tbh...
@@lorchenakumnarth6456 I will agree with that. They def dont play cedh so it wasn't expected to see that.
@@TripsAhoyIt's repetitive and it's supposed to be most casual
@@AwesomeSocialDancing if people unsubsidized because of that then that's just petty. Its one game.
Great game guys.
Very anticlimactic finish, but up until then it was awesome.

Great game, not a great ending. But I do intend to keep watching!
Grateful :D
Things I liked in this one, showing the players, showing the game table, & of course, showing off Meatball!!
Gonna be honest you should never be playing the thoracle combo unless it’s CEDH or you tell your play group beforehand and they’re fine with it
this

Thoracle in casual is always an ass move, but perhaps we'll enjoy some of the other 55 videos you guys have, none of which include Thoracle! :)
Always a fan of some henzie game play
Why would he think a thoracle/consult wincon at a casual table is acceptable? And used 3 tutors to get to it 😂

Clown shit for sure
What's unacceptable to your table may be acceptable in other tables... It's that simple.

Oh we see you guys!!! ❤❤❤
Thank you for the comment! Glad it's about something other than Thassa's Oracle am I right. :)
Nice game table!
Thanks for the comment! It's a recent update to the game-room that seems to be pretty nice.
I see you going with the side angles of the squad like post to win and mtg the stack. Pretty dope.
MEATBALL!!!!!!❤❤
RPG Pundit (The Final Boss of Internet Shitlords) also has a cat named Meatball.
Loved the video. Im team Meatball mostly.
Cant really support Thoracle tho. I got PTSD from it.
I believe people are overexaggerating the ending. Thassa combo for the win is valid play, and it's only been featured once so far in this channel as far as I know. You all need to calm down.
I came for the magic, stayed for the chonkyness 🔥jjaja what do u think of using yawgmoth with undying + drain? Too filthy?? 🤔
The Meren and Henzie decks both look really awesome. Elminster didn't get to do much so idk about that deck. Great game.
Who are these … hoomans playing with cards?
As always, love the game and the humor. Bummer to see a Thoracle win given the type of games usually seen on this channel.
The sidecam was an awesome surprise! Your gaming table looks very nice! Slightly jealous 🤣 Thanks once again for the great content🎉
Which table is this???
i wonder is all will be one commanders might be in the future i hope so
Meatball fed up of giving away free pictures. Pretty sure him going in the bag means you have to start a patreon for him to pose.
Love this :D
Did Yarok Tap his forest to cast Demonic Consult? I only saw him have 2 islands and a forest up after he cast Demonic Tutor.
There was an Urborg out
Professional face-breaker is my new favorite card. Cool camera angles, by the way!
And this is why I avoid out of nowhere win cards in my edh decks... We're here to play the game after all.
I largely try to avoid them as well. If I do play one in a deck it's exactly one in a deck and I try to make sure that there's only one very specific board state needed to make it work. We play casual so we're not exactly running around with a bunch of tutors and what not. I like to play durdle decks and my playgroup likes to play fast "turn creature sideways" decks so in that case it does help balance it a little bit.
I like your setup but I feel like graveyards should be in front of library's instead of behind so your opponents can see the cards going into them.
oooo I kinda like this idea actually!
Great game! Love the content. Love Kyles Sleeves, which are those?
Hi there! Those are dragon shield Starry Night sleeves :)
Great game always enjoy ur videos, no matter if its a combo win or not. Meren was owning this game until thoracle consult 😁, also henzie was becoming a little scary
SWAMP DROP
Oh look another "Casual" gameplay oh wait thassa's oracle turbo....yeiii
That's a fair point. We have 55 other videos to enjoy, none of which include Thoracle! :)
Turn 7 is by far not Turbo
@@PlutoDarknight Still
It's boring in casual
Hey BK thats an awesome looking mat! Pls let me know where you got it, my gf loves it.
Hey glad ya'll like it! I don't remember what it's called but I pretty much only get playmats from www.inkedgaming.com/collections/playmats. Sorry I can't pinpoint it, but feel free to search through their playmats!
Why did the henzie player pick up half of his deck
Not trying to be rude, enjoyed the video but the Thoracle finish made it feel like a waste of time.
Every time I see a Meren deck, I understand why Minthara is so shit - Wizards is terrified of designing another broken Exp Counter commander.
Thoracle . . . . 🙄
God bless Meatball
Meat ball got you the sub lol good game guys
Meatball needs a channel
Emiratis 😂😂😂😂😂 Great game guys! BK, after all this time playing mtg, you deserve few more experience counters 😉

Thoracle in this table? pathethic (and this is an example of bad gameplay and expirience) Idiotic choice to play this combo in "casual"
No shot this mofo is playing Thoracle in casual
zzzzzzzzzzzz
So much hate, sometimes combos win games, that’s okay once in a while!
uh-MER-it-us. think "America" when you say it. it means retired honorary holder of a position, ie headmaster, trustee, executive director etc.
Love it when we get some pronunciation support. Thanks!
What playmate is kyle using?
That's a Seb Mckinnon artwork playmat!
