The Chatterfang squirels also getting counters interaction works for the same reason that Parallel Lives makes two slimes with counters and not one slime with counters and a 0/0 with no counters. You can think of it as replacement effects working on the card's text. Slimes against humanity puts counters on each token it created(normally just one 0/0 slime), so if you have Chatterfang it will read "Make a 0/0 slime and a 1/1 squirrel and put on them a bunch of counters". Tokens will get the same effects. If a card says make a tapped and attacking token, the squirrel will also be tapped and attacking.
The key word that enables this interaction is "instead". If any effect would just cause additional tokens without causing a replacement effect, those tokens would not gain the counters.
Makes sense. If iirc, you can read it like: Original: Create a 0/0 green Ooze creature token with trample. Put X +1/+1 counters on *it*, where X is two plus the total number of cards you own in exile and in your graveyard that are Oozes or are named Slime Against Humanity. Replacement effect text: Create a 0/0 green Ooze creature token with trample *and a 1/1 green Squirrel creature token*. Put X +1/+1 counters on *the tokens*, where X is two plus the total number of cards you own in exile and in your graveyard that are Oozes or are named Slime Against Humanity.
What is even funnier than squirrels is how it should work with "Peregrin Took" from LOTR set. You would create ooze and food with +1/+1 counters on it :D

@@apocryphascribe5019 You don't have to exile all copies. It says "search the library graveyard and hand" and not "reveal" (for the library and hand). Because hand and library are hidden zones you're allowed to "fail to find" and remove only as many copies as you want. Also, Test of Talents say "any number" and not "all" so you're also allowed to not exile cards in the graveyard Surgical Extraction works the same way

I just built a commander deck around persistent petitioners and slime against humanity with Katilda and Lier at the helm. Self mill with the petitioners and then when you cast more petitioners, your slimes in your graveyard get flashback.
I've learned so much from these two over the years. I mean, I was cruel before I watched an MTGGoldfish video, but now my presence at an LGS is limited by the Geneva convention to 1 game or 45 minutes
9:57 Chatterfang is a replacement ability so the created squirrel gets all the modifiers from the token generator. For example with gala greeters creating a tapped treasure would make a tapped squirrel.
Yup, and this is a required effect, otherwise the squirrels would just create infinite squirrels. Unless Chatterfang gets text explicitly worded to prevent not just infinite squirrels, but any workarounds or loopholes players could find.
Hi, Saff! This is Kazuki. My friend and I played EDH game with you and Crim at MagicCon Chicago yesterday. It was a great pleasure meeting you two folks and getting to play such fun game! Keep up with the great work! Enjoy your stay in Chicago😃
The game with the petitioners, I think Phil should have chanced that he would draw one more petitioner. That would have allowed him to mill 72 cards and was his only path to victory, blocking ensured the loss.
He didnt even have to. He should have just taken that 20 dmg. He had 6 petitioners and two in hand. If he had not chumped with the one he would have gotten the kill.
@@longlivemetaldude Sorry meant to say 5 advisors, he had 4 petitioners + Bruvac in play. 2 petitioners in hand and 5 lands. So even if he had drawn another petitioner he wouldn't have had enough mana.
I love weird deck ideas, and i had no idea there were so many different "any number of copies" cards in Magic. This is a good video to pick one to try and build.
I've seen some crazy stuff from the Goldfish crew and the Card Market crew and some others but this is hilarious and amazing! I'd love to see a four-player EDH pod of this - idk, straight Goldfish, or Goldfish vs CM? I'll take either!
@@samdillard1824 I would agree with you in this case. While I really love the extra effort in Phil's editing of these videos, keeping the gameplay as natural as possible should be the top priority. It's something that makes other popular channels very bland.
replacement effect on Chatterfang essentially re-writes the text on Slime against humanity to make a slime and a squirrel, then put that many counters on that (those) tokens.
Wait, its not chatterfang making the extra tokens, its the original source making tokens plus squirrel tokens? Is it because its worded as make x tokens plus x squirrels instead, rather than make x tokens and alao x squirrel tokens?
@er1276 Abilities with the word "instead" are known as a replacement effect. These effects apply themselves directly into the other effects, much like erasing and writing in their own text into another card's textbox. In this case, Chatterfang's replacement effect would change the textbox on Slime Against Humanity into: Create a 0/0 green Ooze creature token with trample plus that many 1/1 green squirrel creature tokens. Put X +1/+1 counters on those tokens, where X is two plus the total number of cards you own in exile and in your graveyard that are Oozes or are named Slime Against Humanity.
Everyone was so hyped to run Aeve as the commander for the slime deck. About three games in I realized that the Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider I had in my 99 was so much better as the commander. So now Aeve is resigned to my 99
10:00 Chatterfang is a replacement effect, so you can effectively adjust the text of Slime Against Humanity to insert the replacement and it would look like this: Create a 0/0 green Ooze creature token with trample and that many 1/1 green Squirrel creature tokens. Put X +1/+1 counters on them, where X is two plus the total number of cards you own in exile and in your graveyard that are Oozes or are named Slime Against Humanity. It's the same reason that parallel lives created two ooze tokens with counters, because it modifies the part that says what to put into play and the rest of the text applies to everything that was put into play by the spell.
I've been trying to make the slides work, but so far the most success I've had was burn half the table with Shalai and Hallar. My personal favorite is Athreos Rats since he makes them less likely to fold to a wrath.
If you watch close in the bonus game when Seth checks the exile first it says 45 slimes but at the end it says 46 witch means that Phil actually did miss one of the slimes and if Seth drew it he woukd have had a 46/46 slime.
I think the chatterfang/ slime against humanity interaction is that slime says summon the token then give it plus x/x counters. Then chatterfang says if a source creates a token, it creates that many tokens plus a squirell. So the slime against humanity essentially has the create a slime token replaced with create a slime and a squirrel, then the counters trigger on what was created by the slime against humanity card.
Interesting that the ooze deck wasn't helmed by Umori, the Collector. To me, that commander fits like a glove because it's an ooze itself and it makes all of the Slime Against Humanity-spells (aswell as all other sorceries) 1 cheaper while in play.
Chatterfang oracle's explain The additional Squirrel tokens won't have any abilities the other tokens were created with. Anything else specified in the effect creating the token (such as tapped, attacking, "That token gains haste," or "Exile that token at end of combat") applies to both the original tokens and the Squirrels.
i think the best slime against humanity deck i've seen was built entirely around looting and impulse draw, because no matter where the slime against humanities go it grows them no matter what. so they impulse draw, only cast the impulse drawn slime against humanities if they have nothing else to do really, discard some to draw other cards, and even flashback some later in the game.
The "Phil and Seth spend all their wildcards to do insane shit" is my favorite series.
The any number of spells only require 4 Wild Cards, so it's not quite as bad
@@blueredlover1060 that's good to know, at least.
Same
Agreed!

So in theory, the slime deck can run test of talents itself. You can exile about 20 slimes and guarantee every slime you cast is lethal from then on
Looks like a good against the odds
Test of Talents in Commander. What a sight to see
How do you cast Slime Against Humanity when all your copies have been exiled due to Test of Talents?
@@apocryphascribe5019 You don't have to exile all copies. It says "search the library graveyard and hand" and not "reveal" (for the library and hand). Because hand and library are hidden zones you're allowed to "fail to find" and remove only as many copies as you want.

@@apocryphascribe5019 you can search for any number, so if you're using it on yourself you don't exile every copy.

Soooo brutal

Phil: "lol no"
@@brackish2386why would you ever run test of talents in a singleton format like brawl? This was only possible because they had prior knowledge.

That’s gorgeous! Got a list?
Now this is gaming
After seeing how Phil milling the slimes turbo-charged the deck, Seth needs to play one more slime variant with a self-mill theme.
Phil just Metagamed Seth so hard in the Bonus Game and nearly still lost it. Golden Moment of typical german value player.
Loved catching on to the bonus game just in time.
'Isn't leaving open a counter to a Slime pretty weak... oh... wait....'
After that Test of Talents I will never feel sorry for Phil every again any time someone techs against him in commander clash 🤣
17:36 phil's face contorting out of sheer glee is iconic.
I love the brewers kitchen editing skills. The videos look so alive, the flow of the animations are just spot on, perfect.
That bonus game was the highlight of the show. Glorious!
I laughed out loud when Phil called on me to tap that like button, I realized it was already checked and he said "Oh, you did, thank you"

This was supposed to be a Commander Clash theme!!! I was really hoping for that.
