Does he just not play ramp or rocks? $10k budget and could have had a Sol Ring, Mana Crypt, Bloom Tender, Nature's Lore, Three Visits. I can keep going lol.
> Gets off to an insane start going into the midgame > Proceeds to get board wiped and pummeled mercilessly from all sides, eventually being the first player eliminated Yup. It’s an average Phil Commander experience, alright.
Maybe I just play different from him but he pulled that trigger so early. He went from easily the most developed board to equal footing at the hands of his own spell. Just cause you can doesn't mean you should.
Turns out, ramping and have 5 or more lands than the rest of the table let's you play the game more than others and makes your deck better in comparison. Who could have known? God I hate green.
I think it would be fun to see $50 vs $100 vs $200 vs $400. I believe those are realistic budgets a lot of players build their decks around and it'd be cool to see them play against each other
Honestly same though. I have a couple decks that are just absolute value engines but i have to play them at the beginning of the night or not at all because they are too thinky. But i do love playing them
@@MidgarMerc after looking at the list, most of the non creature spells are really good. It's playing multiple tutor's the best best counter magic and a really strong land base.
@@ich3730Adding a few cards to boost the price doesn't make it a good deck... I have a ~$1000 deck that can consistently win on turn 4, but it also wouldn't make for good content. A $10,000 deck should be able to win quite quickly but would also make for a short game, IE bad content.
For other people curious how Richard's deck is 10k: Eight Reserved List Cards account for about $8,350 Expand for List The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale : $3300 Chains of Mephistopheles: $1100 Candelabra of Tawnos: $930 Gaea's Cradle: $800 ForceField: $500 Plus the three dual lands: Underground Sea : $800 Tropical Island: $500 Bayou: $420
I understand just fine. Let's say you add one alpha underground sea to your deck, a gem mint one is valued at 25k+. So now you have a 25k regular casual deck with one imba land. The vast majority of games, you won't have it in your opening hand - hence it hasn't really increased the power level of your deck significantly. Drawing your alpha duel in later turns (lets say 3+) isn't that relevant since it's main strength is in mana-fixing. And since we already have watery grave and triomes as fetch targets, it's not essential. Tabernacle is a different issue: it's only good when you're playing a prison strategy which obviously Richard isn't since that would be unfun to watch a 10k prison deck. You would also need ways to tutor out the tabernacle early and mana denial. Instead, they're playing a meta where the board gets wrathed t5-7 anyway so tabernacle is largely irrelevant - and post wrath, the upkeep isn't very significant. Now Gaea's Cradle is very different in this context: you can draw it post t5 and it will almost always net you a huge surge of mana - and given the lack of land destruction and the low density of wraths, probably for the rest of the game. Add in some minor untap synergies and mana sinks and that's game.
Love how Phils insane value engines come with their own penalty of extra effort in paper! Crim on the other hand often has the easiest turns being a fan of draw go lol
It's kinda crazy how hard they went after Phil when Seth, Crim, and Richard were all popping off. No one ever allied themselves with Phil, instead it always seemed like they were all allied against Phil even after he was put back into the stone age. Might want to take a look at your alliances as it always seems like Phil gets the short end of the stick, and he seems like he is too nice to really fight back against it.
It's not logical this game, but they talk a lot about how Phil often plays very strong "pop-off" decks (opposite of Crim--no interaction, all gas). However by their podcast logic, this season they should be ganging up on Mr. "Open The Way" Seth, but I guess he isn't playing green this week?
What are you talking about? Before the Ondu Phil was leagues ahead of everyone else and it's a token value deck that can rebuild faster than stuff like mill. Not to mention he essentially halved the entire rest of the table's life. Game's gotta end eventually, players gotta be knocked out or lose. It's one thing to be nice to someone who was mana screwed all game or had bad draws that put them far behind, it's quite another to just let the person who was winning for the first half of the game sit quietly untouched for a chance to turn it around. I do agree there have been some vibes based team-ups every so often that aren't judging threats at all but honestly, if Phil sat down across from me with one of his actual "I built this for me and I play it" paper decks there would be no mercy.
When one player demonstrates both the ability to present a lethal threat in a single turn AND recover from a board wipe just as quickly, it naturally happens. The problem wasn't that Phil was targeted, it was that Richard never was. Threat assessment has always been a major weakness they all have in their games, but there's also a reason for that. If threats are always properly assessed by every player, the game takes longer to finish.
That $10 Pako deck put in work! The interaction between Seth's and Phil's deck was interesting, and that was 1000% going to get out of hand and just end the game. And then Richard's expensive deck finally started doing things.
I gotta say after recently discovering this channel and watching this season and the previous it's pretty incredible how Richard always manages to have the same lines in every one of his decks (like CR into Glacial Chasm and the like). Like that's not to say it's unfair, cause it is, but I find it kind of hilarious when everyone always dogs on Phil regarding his value addiction yet the crew still refuses to put in more land destruction to at least somewhat stop Richard's utility land pile hitting the table every CC.
I can't unhear "blue crap" now. I feel like Chandra after having Liliana say something devious to her, as depicted in the Kaladesh set Diabolic Tutor card. Thanks, 😆! _snickers and walks away_
Also taking three angels instead of one Kembal’s trigger sees all of your opponents at once and also only triggers once No matter how you cut it, hunted angel only gives you one token
@@nickman217 No, that's incorrect. Hunted Angel's ability creates the tokens simultaneously, and an untriggered Kambal will 'see' the creation of all three tokens as a single event. Therefore, if Hunted Angel dies on a turn where Kambal has not yet triggered, Kambal's controller will create 3 3/3s [cf. also Alliance of Arms, The War Games, Marching Duodrone, and Plague of Vermin.]
Considering that I’ve made a pretty decent $50 deck before, I feel like everything except the $10 deck are going to be able to compete here. Not sure if there’s too much difference between $1000 and $10,000 other than blinging stuff out or running OG duals.
I think that’s why the $10 deck is playing those commanders cause they basically let you play your opponents decks so he can get around the budget restriction/quality
Yeah, if you get it right a pretty low budget deck can do a lot of stuff. Tomer ran a 25$ Gargos Deck in Commander Clash at one point and recked everyone.
My most expensive deck I've ever made was only around $90. I genuinely can't fathom how they're managing to build such expensive decks. You'd have to go out of your way to make that happen.
@@dontmisunderstand6041once you play an expensive mana base with fetches and shocks that’s >150$ and then if you play a bunch of rhystics Study’s teferis pro and other staples

The comments would whine a lot louder if everyone started running Cataclysms and Obliterates to deal with it.
Deck building is everything! Some of the best decks I've seen are budget - it's all on who is making them and what the gameplan is. With the quality commons and uncommons coming to the commander, it's easy to build a great budget deck these days.
I feel sad for Phil tbh. Not because he is targeted, but because he plays marneus and was denied from being able to pop off, exactly like me playing the same commander.
phil getting obliterated for no reason and nobody making richard use his 10,000 protection spells? Aw yeah, it's the average commander clash experience.
At this point I have to wonder if Crim and Richard are just hardwired to always aim everything at Phil no matter if he's a threat or not. He was not doing anything for four or five turns and yet they went after him. Ugh...leaves a bit of a sour taste to see. Was fun seeing so differently budgeted decks though.
Phil constantly plays "remove this or I win the game" cards with no interaction. At some point it's his fault if he keep getting killed because people are afraid of the value he generates. Also, he had a 1,000$ combo deck and that's the kind of deck that can win at any time with no warning
Das wäre so witzig, wenn Phil und Georg (der deutsche Freund vom Professor) bei "shuffle Up and play" eine komplette deutsche folge machen würden und alle müssten mit deutschen Decks spielen 😄 It would be so funny if Phil and Georg (The German friend from Prof) would make a German episode on "shuffle up and play" and everybody had to play with German decks 😅
On this week of "Punt or Bluff?" It's Riches to Rags. Will Richard destroy everyone with Tabernacle or will Crim show us the power of a boy and his doggo? Tune-in to find out!
So Seth was inadvertently playing his commander wrong, and understandably so as a lot of effects work as it was being played as opposed to how it is worded. You don't drain per token you drain per instance of one or more tokens entering the battlefield. Make a million treasure tokens at once that's 1 damage but trigger an infinite to make a single token over and over again each one will drain. I learned this when I was playing dagger burn with Kambal on arena It took me a bit to notice it to I kept thinking I was missing one or two damage until i finally realized. Still a great card though.
Thanks Phil for showing me I should cut Charismatic Conqueror from my 'still to buy' list for my Marneus deck. I don't think I have the energy to deal with that for a 2 drop
Improvement suggestion: Is it possible to vertically flip the top 2 players cameras via your gameplay software or by having Crim and Richard simply flip their cameras so that the board states are right-side-up?
Level 1 Judge here. Seth, your victimize brings your kambal and burnished hart into play tapped, meaning you couldn't have used the hart to block Crim's Pako and would have taken 6 commander damage. Also, Phil, when you attacked with your 3 vampires, you only gained 2 life and not 3 from lifelink.
Creatures revived with Victimize come into play TAPPED, Seth kinda cheated (missplayed in his favor, hehe) on that one, and it was relevant because he immediately blocked Paco with one of the revived creatures. Also, when he created the angel tokens, I think the tokens are create right before his creatures come to play with the victimize, so he wouldn't be able to drain life, but I'm not so sure on that one.
The thing that gave everyone else angel tokens is a trigger so it would technically not even go onto the stack until Victimize had finished resolving as the sacrifice is part of the resolution of the spell, not an additional cost.
Richard's deck wasn't really a lot stronger than the others tbh, the $10,000 was mostly spent on reserve list lands. A single gem mint 10 alpha underground sea is $25,000+ atm and it doesn't significantly alter the deck's performance.
What happened to cards explaining the unique stuff they do? I paused so I could read the rules text on Mothman for a rad counter. It isn't on the card Why?
I'll even let Seth get away with a guild of guin. They used to be so good about running a bit of LD and ever since they stopped Richard wins every game with the same lands.
I have a challenge for the clash team. A game where only basic lands are allowed. as we see here, basic land ramp is so efficient--and I have a feeling maybe Richard will be impressed at how fast people ramp up. I love the philosophy that basics aren't good anymore--but I just think that is overblown. I think you do have to have either a deck with basic lands, or a deck with mostly not. But either strategy comes with pluses and minuses.
I don't think you get the tokens from haunted angel as cost to the spell is to sacrifice, So I don't think your commander hits the board before the trigger resolves for haunted angel.
As a person that plays budget, the difference between a 10$ deck and a 100$ deck is by far the biggest difference, and would still be the biggest difference if it was 50$ instead of 100$.
Threat assessment was harsh on phil when he was sent to stoneage yet still continued to be targeted which kinda ruined the game abit. Phils deck looked super interesting as well.
Phil for the first half of the game was in the dominating position. You also have to remember that they taken the fact that Phil's decks are explosive glass cannons so it is a hard deck to just leave alone and let build back up
Anyone else miss being able to see the player’s hands? Not a big issue but I thought about it when Crim was talking about LD being cheap and I wanted to see if his hand was all armageddon or not
That's one thing with a meta most expensive deck out of your pod or group. They are going to pop off and have any reaction and longevity longer than the cheap decks. I've got a 700 shrine deck it stomps my group and in the game stores even in the game stores.
“create a token copy but it isn’t legendary” would go infinite with seth’s commander and phil’s copy; i think it would kill the other two players and then draw the game
@Seth, I asked my judge buddy Xander, and Kambal, should be creating the same amount of tokens that any opponent cards would create in a single instance each turn, i.e. Dockside creates 10 treasures on the opponents side, then Kambal player also creates 10 treasures during that instance, due the text on Kambal "for each of them", only reason I say this I kept hearing you say it only creates one token, just throwing that out there.
Can some one of you play a sissay 5 color deck that revolves around the millenium calender with a lot of twiddle effects and seedborn muse? I built one and its super fun
i would love to see this again with tomer being the one with 10K struggling to found expensive cards and richard with 10 struggling to find cheap cards, since Richard always uses the expensive cards and despite cards for being more mana expensive or do less things and tomer always playing on a budget even if he doesnt need to
new idea: rarity showdown! decks consisting of only commons vs uncommons vs rares vs mythics. Which deck will be the strongest and most cohesive? Remember, some commons are insanely strong (rhystic study for example was a common on release)

I learned this when I was playing dagger burn with Kambal on arena It took me a bit to notice it to I kept thinking I was missing one or two damage until i finally realized. Still a great card though.
Wait are they all in different places?
A day will come when the table will make Richard have it multiple times and actually kill him. But it is not this day.
Finally a written marneus calegar list from Phil I haven’t been able to find it before today
Everyone but Crim: Mill Sucks
Me: Watching Phill mill away his powerful cards to enable his progress LOL.
Thanks Phil for showing me I should cut Charismatic Conqueror from my 'still to buy' list for my Marneus deck. I don't think I have the energy to deal with that for a 2 drop
How is tomer not doing the 10$ lol seems right up his alley
He's out this season?
It was a deck Tomer did a video on. He just isn't one of the main 4 this season
He did build the deck.
@@MTGGoldfishCommandershould have made it a five player game instead and given tomer a 1$ budget
By the time I had finished I picked up on that he had built it. Thanks for taking time to reply anyway. Love the vids you guys are great
This was a fun match to watch. I honestly wish I could just build all four of these decks. They looked so fun to play.
Just a casual Tabernacle finding a home in Mothman 😂
Improvement suggestion: Is it possible to vertically flip the top 2 players cameras via your gameplay software or by having Crim and Richard simply flip their cameras so that the board states are right-side-up?
Level 1 Judge here. Seth, your victimize brings your kambal and burnished hart into play tapped, meaning you couldn't have used the hart to block Crim's Pako and would have taken 6 commander damage. Also, Phil, when you attacked with your 3 vampires, you only gained 2 life and not 3 from lifelink.
Creatures revived with Victimize come into play TAPPED, Seth kinda cheated (missplayed in his favor, hehe) on that one, and it was relevant because he immediately blocked Paco with one of the revived creatures. Also, when he created the angel tokens, I think the tokens are create right before his creatures come to play with the victimize, so he wouldn't be able to drain life, but I'm not so sure on that one.
The thing that gave everyone else angel tokens is a trigger so it would technically not even go onto the stack until Victimize had finished resolving as the sacrifice is part of the resolution of the spell, not an additional cost.
Richard winning as he always does: waiting for his chance and not dying or doing much till the right time and it is always hilarious.
Flying under the radar is a good strategy
@@cloudroth6 It is an amazing strategy. The thing is that the other players have not notice it yet.
Tomer is such a good deck builder.
He really is, and most of his best decks are super budget. Looking at you Gargos.
27:15 crim saying don instead of lands made me laugh so hard
Richard's deck wasn't really a lot stronger than the others tbh, the $10,000 was mostly spent on reserve list lands. A single gem mint 10 alpha underground sea is $25,000+ atm and it doesn't significantly alter the deck's performance.
Seeing one of my favourite mill cards (and therefore one of my favourite cards ever) in a 10,000 deck is hilarious.
Undead Alchemist supremacy!
Why did Phil only gain 2 when he swung with 3 1/1 lifelinkers at 15:45?
Even though it was blocked and died, he should have gained 3 yeah?
What a depiction of why you really want to be careful of when you pop off in commander
Misplay at 5:25. It's Clue not Treasure that's created by Hard Evidence :)
2:53 One time I had Incubation Druid out but didn’t have any lands that produced colors. 😂
I used lands that could tap-sac but produced two mana.
“Don’t fear the creature!” Someone has to make this parody! 😂
Seth mispronouncing hunted horror so it could be linked to haunted angel is cute lol
What happened to cards explaining the unique stuff they do? I paused so I could read the rules text on Mothman for a rad counter. It isn't on the card Why?
I mean honestly, Crim's deck was a pretty genius idea for a $10 deck. It almost popped off.
Bring back Sesame Street week (Each deck brought to you by a specific letter) & CMC tribal week!
I'll even let Seth get away with a guild of guin. They used to be so good about running a bit of LD and ever since they stopped Richard wins every game with the same lands.
Kambal does go infinite with your opponents croaking counterpart, since the newly created frog tokens would be able to trigger each other
Crim's deck is so similar to my Pako, a ton of ramp plus more ramp, but I wasn't building it on a budget 😂
I have a challenge for the clash team. A game where only basic lands are allowed. as we see here, basic land ramp is so efficient--and I have a feeling maybe Richard will be impressed at how fast people ramp up. I love the philosophy that basics aren't good anymore--but I just think that is overblown.
I think you do have to have either a deck with basic lands, or a deck with mostly not. But either strategy comes with pluses and minuses.
I don't think you get the tokens from haunted angel as cost to the spell is to sacrifice, So I don't think your commander hits the board before the trigger resolves for haunted angel.
As a person that plays budget, the difference between a 10$ deck and a 100$ deck is by far the biggest difference, and would still be the biggest difference if it was 50$ instead of 100$.
You all messed up the Kambal triggers so many times hah, still entertaining.
Threat assessment was harsh on phil when he was sent to stoneage yet still continued to be targeted which kinda ruined the game abit. Phils deck looked super interesting as well.
Phil for the first half of the game was in the dominating position. You also have to remember that they taken the fact that Phil's decks are explosive glass cannons so it is a hard deck to just leave alone and let build back up
@cloudroth6 sure, keep it in check attacking occasionally, but the board had developed with bigger threats. All in all an enjoyable game
Only a real G spends more on his sleeves than he does on his deck. Crim the real MVP.
Anyone else miss being able to see the player’s hands? Not a big issue but I thought about it when Crim was talking about LD being cheap and I wanted to see if his hand was all armageddon or not
Looks at deck….how can you you get to 10,000
Sees ardelle vale
Ah
That's one thing with a meta most expensive deck out of your pod or group. They are going to pop off and have any reaction and longevity longer than the cheap decks. I've got a 700 shrine deck it stomps my group and in the game stores even in the game stores.
Congrats on 100k Subs!
I would have like to know what was each card monetary value when they were played
threat assesment all over the place in this game
Phil was pretty spot on when he was like, "how does Richard keep getting away with it?!" at one point.
Seth's AssTart token made my day
“create a token copy but it isn’t legendary” would go infinite with seth’s commander and phil’s copy; i think it would kill the other two players and then draw the game
I like how the $10k deck would be like a $150 deck if you just cut out like 5 cards
@Seth, I asked my judge buddy Xander, and Kambal, should be creating the same amount of tokens that any opponent cards would create in a single instance each turn, i.e. Dockside creates 10 treasures on the opponents side, then Kambal player also creates 10 treasures during that instance, due the text on Kambal "for each of them", only reason I say this I kept hearing you say it only creates one token, just throwing that out there.
Seth, your first mistake was assuming that Crim said words!
of course ..phil would be playing the $10000 deck 🤣
Can some one of you play a sissay 5 color deck that revolves around the millenium calender with a lot of twiddle effects and seedborn muse? I built one and its super fun
i would love to see this again with tomer being the one with 10K struggling to found expensive cards and richard with 10 struggling to find cheap cards, since Richard always uses the expensive cards and despite cards for being more mana expensive or do less things and tomer always playing on a budget even if he doesnt need to
Seth’s deck was not doing so many triggers and doing more tokens than it should have basically switched which ability is once per turn
new idea: rarity showdown! decks consisting of only commons vs uncommons vs rares vs mythics. Which deck will be the strongest and most cohesive? Remember, some commons are insanely strong (rhystic study for example was a common on release)
already built kambal, hes so cool, excited to see your take.
I wish had $10,000 worth of cards just lying around.
