  • @TheMattmatic

    • @matthewradabaugh1635
      @matthewradabaugh1635 2 роки тому +6

      The odds are that good cause for the first three he basically his a 66% chance of being fine. The last two are based off how many rites he flipped in the first three.

    • @leandroteixeira33
      @leandroteixeira33 2 роки тому +4

      The thing is, in Nassif's case, we are looking at the odds of he surviving that Ignite Memories. Many times when talking about luckiest comebacks, people talk about the chances of that specific scenario happening.

    • @DakonBlackblade2
      @DakonBlackblade2 2 роки тому +1

      Lots of possible combinations would've kept him alive there, all that needed to happen was not revealing Ignite Memories at all on the 5 events and revealing Rite of Flame at least twice, every combination in any order sticking to those precepts would have kept him alive.

  • @sadistksuffring1537
    @sadistksuffring1537 2 роки тому +13

    4 hollow ones is for sure the greatest odds but the comeback was the most pleasing one. A good comeback is always amazing. I had a really good one with my elf commander deck against both a goblin and skeleton deck, thank you Lathril, Miara and serpent soul jar.

  • @Cnvvj
    @Cnvvj 2 роки тому +4

    Just had a casual commander match a few days ago where I was running Okaun//Zndrsplt. Pretty much only Okaun and Krark's Thumb on the field. Okaun's trigger goes off, and I manage to pull off 16 consecutive coin flip wins, giving me an absolute BEAST of 196608/196608 (3 * 2^16), to which I then fed Temur Battle Rage for some sweet sweet doublestrike trample. Apparently, getting 16 favoured flips with Thumb in play is a 1% chance (0.75^16).

    Bob losing to Bob was pretty rich! I’ve done it, too. But I still love the card! I’m sleeving up an updated version of Modern the Rock tonight after putting it down for a while. Greatness, at any cost.

    That last match reminded me of when I was playing shadalar, and the game glitched out in such a way that my opponent did absolutely nothing on their turn, but I decided it was a good idea to play a Mana Crypt. It was not a good idea to play mana crypt-- five bad coin flips later and I was dead.

  • @Nekophiliac
    @Nekophiliac 2 роки тому +4

    I think the luckiest I’ve gotten was a 4-player game of Commander where I was playing Alesha, Who Smiles at Death as a Reanimator/Token deck.
    Opponent plays Hive Mind and immediately follows it with a Warp World (he was playing a Chaos deck). Since my deck generated tokens I gained permanents with each Warp and the 2nd and 4th resolutions flipped my Purphoros onto the battlefield alongside all the tokens generating from the EtB effects. I did upwards of 40 damage to each opponent by accident and won.
    That and the time I pulled 2 copies of Zurgo Helmsmasher at the Khans of Tarkir prerelease tournament at my LGS-got me to 2nd place!
