TBH, even Power 9 stuff isn't really a huge problem in Casual EDH, a Mox or Ancestral Recall is a good card but it's not breaking the game because of the scale of EDH. Obviously if you're running a more pushed deck then Power 9 stuff is problematic, but it's easy to make that kind of card seem reasonable. It was a cool way to win for sure!
What a show! God that was fun - I would love to get my hands on that Veyran deck! Great throwback to ep1 Blake - great job piloting that spell slinger!
I still adore Ben, but I'm also now becoming a fan of Blake. Why? Because Blake responds to CGB the way that I would respond to him if I was there! #TeamBenandBlake
LOL!!! I'm dying 😂😂😂I had to watch the intro 3 times to see if it was really that funny - "Ever heard of it?" 😂😂 I laughed all the way through Blake's intro each time! Y'all are great!
Damn, that mental anguish blake must have felt upon not paying the one so often, but that sick turn was certainly a good compensation, especially after they so rudely interrupted. Well deserved win there :)
I'm confused. I assume cgb cast the chaos warp on Jin-Gitaxias on Blake's end step so it wouldn't be countered, but then he didn't untap his lands for his turn afterwards, nor did he announce the beginning of his turn. Did I miss something?
Love the vid happy April fools! I think there was a slight misplay though. Jin gitaxias should counter the consider before the Arcane bombardment triggers since opponents triggers resolve first. so you technically could have hit the consider off of the Arcane bombardment. EDIT: I’m stupid and forgot that it was CGBs turn
Pretty sure Arcane Bombardment doesn’t trigger Guttersnipe. I have a Veyran deck and you only get the Snipe triggers off of original casts… Guttersnipe does not have Magecraft.
@@MadcookieBG I always get this stuff confused. So because it specifically says the word “cast” that would qualify as triggering Guttersnipe? With that being said, does that also increase your storm count?
Finally I can play my power 9 again! Can’t wait to show off in my LGS. But sorry for you to have lost everything, CGB and even more because you were betrayed and got a proxy! I really wish you were not only a small UA-camr so you could quickly recover. Happy April ;) thanks for the fun and remember, kids: always have removal for the combo player :D but I’m happy for Blake, he really had a hard time in the recent episodes ;)
This was a fun game for sure. But kinda anticlimactic that in a game with P9 the MVP was a 6 friggin mana enchantment... unless that was the April fool's joke LOL
First nearly no one would buy 4 times power nine for a April fools episode and second nearly no one would rip apart and actual black lotus. So I am pretty sure they are proxies.
Okay can we talk about how CGB just ripped up a minimum value of $3,000 for the fun of it at the end of this? Also I shudder to think about the cost of this episode unless I'm really missing something here
Poor Shae, you guys didint realize that Isochron scepter only allows for Instants, not Sorceries, so Time Walk under Scepter is a no go.
Not sure how they didn’t realize that lol
I was just about to say that
Reading is busted
reading the card explains the card.
Yea they should like hire a judge to catch this stuff
black lotus'ing out a black market is the most fair use of a black lotus i have ever seen
I love how the winner who won the game didn’t really use any of the cards that were kind of the focus of today’s show ❤

I still can’t believe CGB pulled off the bunny ears on the thumbnail……….
What a show! God that was fun - I would love to get my hands on that Veyran deck! Great throwback to ep1 Blake - great job piloting that spell slinger!
Love spell slinger so much. Nothing makes me feel more like a mage than casting a bunch of instants and sorceries. GG Crew and way to go Blake!
The funniest part of that was CGB's look as Shae was introducing Jin. Happy April all!

How fun would it be to choose an opponent's card as well as their own. In recognition of the deck builder?
27:01 CGB has a fierce guardianship in his hand...
why didn't you use it?
for the content?
I don’t think it would have done anything
Damn, that mental anguish blake must have felt upon not paying the one so often, but that sick turn was certainly a good compensation, especially after they so rudely interrupted. Well deserved win there :)
What life counter app are you guys using?
4:05- black lotus, ever heard of it?😂
Yesss! Kess Hidden Nekusar was my first EDH deck, ready for this.
I'm confused. I assume cgb cast the chaos warp on Jin-Gitaxias on Blake's end step so it wouldn't be countered, but then he didn't untap his lands for his turn afterwards, nor did he announce the beginning of his turn. Did I miss something?
He didn‘t he played it on his turn and asked if anyone else could offer a cast to trigger Jim which Blake did.
@@TotalTimoTime aha I did miss that. Thanks

incorrect, it was CGBs turn in his upkeep so Blake is last in priority so his effects resolve first.
@@atk9989 ah I didn’t realize it was CGBs turn lmaoo

AB last line says "You may *cast* any number of the copies without paying their mana costs." so it works with guttersnipe :)
@@MadcookieBG I always get this stuff confused. So because it specifically says the word “cast” that would qualify as triggering Guttersnipe? With that being said, does that also increase your storm count?
@@bfw6971 Yes on both questions :)
@@MadcookieBG thanks appreciate it!

Esper Sentinel: The human that prays he's never itchy!
lol emmies all around for that card ripping scene
Shae forgot her rhystic triggers for each cast off arcane bombardment
They caught them later
Isocran Sceptor does not work with 'Time Walk because the sceptor only does instants and not sorceries.
So what do you guys think about recent Wizards's anoucement of unbanning Sylvan Primordial and Primeval Titan in edh?
Wizards also banned sleeves today so we'd better unsleeve those power nine and shuffle up!
Wait, gotta glue that black lotus back together!^^
please do a april special every year. this was a educational and interesting game as we get to see what if's
Are those power 9 cards real or are they magic 30 proxys
Please, i need to know that i'm not going crazy, is the background image in the thumbnail from a game called Grand Chase???
Nope it’s the art from Teramorphic Expanse
Man, Black Lotus is the sort of card we just ignored when playing on the sidewalk unsleeved in 93. Why would anyone want to use it in commander?
This was a fun game for sure. But kinda anticlimactic that in a game with P9 the MVP was a 6 friggin mana enchantment... unless that was the April fool's joke LOL
Love watching this channel! Great job all players and editors! Keep up the great work.
Kudos to the writers. Is there ever going to romance episode?
All these cards… and the guttersnipe is what does it
Ah yes, the affordability of the cards on the Frist of April, very notorious haha
Haha, nice one guys. Happy April fool's day to you too.
CGB probably hates Jin Gitaxias as much as he hates Karn
Gotta shut off those sol rings!
Were they fake cards? Or did he actually rip a black lotus in half
First nearly no one would buy 4 times power nine for a April fools episode and second nearly no one would rip apart and actual black lotus. So I am pretty sure they are proxies.
Guaranteed it was a proxy
Arcane bombardment is seriously powerful
i want to go back to day when i was playing you could channel fireball for win. yes i started playing when alpha and beta came out.
There’s a thing no ban list edh, which is the most busted thing ever lol
Surprised no one plays a 5 Color deck
Powered Commander sounds awesome
You broke Blake!!! Lolz.
It's a trap!!
I mean is a trick!!!
It's definitely one of those two. :🤔
For next April fools you guys could try planing good decks.
Hold on... Power 9 announcement on April 1st? No one thinks that date is relevant? lol
Love the show❤
To bad I can't see any announcements saying the power nine is unbanned 😅
I got banned for using it that betrays n one equipment
What!!! was that a real Black Lotus, tell me this is an aprils fool!!
CoMmEnTiNg FoR tHe AlGoRiThM
I almost believed this lol
that was awesome
ever heaRD OF it XD
April 1st
ANOTHER ONE!
Happy april fools :)
But a great game overall
finally UnBanned .....
having an off camera judge might be a good idea, cool people good show, but game errors
Now just unban prime time. Please.
Dude not funny but funny! I spent 20 minutes stressing that the power nine was unbanned for commander
For all our sakes, I hope that was a proxy that was ripped... Especially for CGB
I know that was a proxy, but it still hurts
Okay can we talk about how CGB just ripped up a minimum value of $3,000 for the fun of it at the end of this? Also I shudder to think about the cost of this episode unless I'm really missing something here
Proxy cards are something that exist
it's an april fools episode...
@@Doomlizard The cards looked real enough to me
Happy April Fools Day!
EVER HEARD OF IT!?
