Josh: "Why am I always dying to mill?"
Josh: *draws 50 cards in a turn*
Josh: "I guess we'll never find out"
It's why one who draws a lot shall play Niv-Mizzet.
@@amelialouma4762 and jace to prevent loss
@@mikeylee9151 And Reminisce or Clear the mind to do it all over again !
*laughs in ulamog*
Legit put one in my decks so I don't just insta lose to mill anymore 😅
Elixir of immortality too
Josh: This is the part where everyone declares me arch-enemy.
Also Josh: *Takes a 13 minute edited turn*
And buys 32 cards AFTER replaying all his instants from the graveyard.
One of the few things I dislike about this channel: “I might even win the game next turn! ....nooo, don’t target me. Y’all are so mean 🥺”
@@CeltiesSin eh, that's just how some groups play out tbh. Same thing at my LGS, there's one guy who just constantly ends up being archenemy. Just good deck building mixed with solid piloting, not much you can do about it 😂.
Im glad he is self aware of that!
@@CeltiesSin That's not what he did this game though. He just rightly noticed it was at the point in the game where he had so much value he was the main target. He didn't really complain about it
Josh draws 50 cards
Olivia: "Call an ambulance..."
Plays Altar of dementia
Olivia: "...but not for me!"
*Giorno's theme starts playing
Everyone: we're screwed
Lmao
"Josh has been a problem.... for 40 episodes" LOL pure gold i laugh every time i get to that part
Every time? How many times have you watched this episode?!
Ok that Prismari Command animation was literally fire
No kidding. That might be the prettiest card I've ever seen.
holy moley it was AMAZING!!
i went back to watch it like 3 times, its SO GOOD!
True! One of my favorites for sure! That and Quandrix.
Oh yes! It really deserved to be shown twice!
Disco!
I love how Olivia delivered quotable quotes during the game.
"I love it when you make decks that are smarter than you."
"So it resolves?"
"No, well, it will, but not for me."
She is a true Silverquill.
Definitely
And killing with sign in blood is a true Silverquill move :D
@Avery Laible hahah true!
@@sagilia4393 poetic justice
@@christianalbrecht6472 I feel like this set is gonna replace which Hogwarts House are tou 😭
In case you were wondering Josh’s last turn took 12 minutes and 55 seconds, 7 minutes and 10 seconds being Mizzix’s Mastery. The episode is 1:02:09 long, meaning that Josh’s turn took roughly 21% of the ENTIRE EPISODE.
Thats with the edition It were pretty longer than that
And still got the rules wrong. Lol.
@@rathlordwhat did he get wrong?
@@amethystrose3480 He made Accelerate (the haste enabler) target the copy of Veyran, which didn’t exist yet when he was supposed to declare its target.
@@fangornfanWhat are you talking about? It did exist, the spell already resolved creating the token and the token was created as a permanent on the battle field.
Josh: *draws almost entire deck in one turn and taps out*
Josh: I've got this now.
Olivia: How many cards in your library?
Josh: *pikachu face*
The man who famously said 'Math is for blockers' is repping the college all about math.
"Do as I say, not as I do" I believe is the proper term here ;)
exactly! he made a mistake and went to college to learn how to fix it!
I prefer the words "character development" :P
Don't bring up the graham mistake
And he got attacked alot. This tracks
Why are the ads for fake colleges better than every real college ad I've ever seen
Because real colleges don't enroll wizards 😂
Because real colleges don't have years of magic experience, naturally.
exactly
There's an old ad for an australian college that was absolutely hilarious
Hahajaja
“His triumph was not in outsmarting Bolas’ plan, but in understanding why ultimate power is self-defeating”
I like how from Olivia’s perspective she left the table before things were going to get back, and when she did, two people were dead, and the last one remaining had drawn every card in his deck. Then she comes back like “it’s time to win”.
Josh: draws 32 cards* “that was a good idea...”
Morgan Freeman: “little did Josh know, that was actually a horrible idea”
I 100% wanted it to be secret rendezvouz, but I'll take it.

@@michaelnaramore9310 plays rip apart
@@bloodfest8510 activate in response
Did josh not learn his lesson from Theros Beyond Death play?
The Silverquill intro is arguably the best one of them all. I literally want a shirt with “So you think you could be Silverquill?” on the front with “Prove it.” on the back. Excellent work guys!
Seriously, that poem was amazing! The others are quirky and fun, but that one made me legit want to root for what is clearly the most snobby, stuck-up faction in the set. Made me want to made a Silverquill-based deck, and I almost never play White! XD
I want to build a Silverquill deck, but I want to enrol in Prismari!
This was some insane gameplay. Some real high tier shit. Olivia really busted my sides with “I love when you make decks smarter than you” and then the amazing conclusion. Also the silver quill deck killing someone with sign in blood was so flavorful
I love Olivia being so proud of Jimmy for having constructed a deck based around breaking his mana-screwed curse.
And the "i love when you build a deck thats smarter than you" comment
She is also very petty n I love it
“On one hand I’m proud of Jimmy for playing a sorcery from the command zone, but on the other I’m proud of him breaking the Jimmy Wong mana screw cure” Best Quote of the Year
you forgot " i love when you make deck smarter than you" ...well seems like olivia is gonna be the winner
With all the ramping he was doing in the early game instead of actually building a boardstate, Jimmy at least stayed faithful to his usual "lose life far too quickly" strategy!
nah, Best Quote of the Year by Jimmy. " He has been a problem, for 40 episodes"
"He's been the problem, forty episodes" was also a pretty good one!
The best one was "You just put a bunch of lands out and I have Archaeomancer's Map but I don't have any lands in hand."
This will be repeated for millions of players around the world for years.
As someone who just stumbled into Magic. I want to thank this channel for the incredible directing, editing, and animation of these game knights. The videos are informative in a fun and interesting way for a new player. I feel like I can follow along even though I have no experience. Thank you! I am now wishing I had friends who would play this amazing game with me and want to buy some cards!!
52:39 jimmy stares sadly into the camera as he sees his imminent doom
“I love when you make decks that are smarter than you” lmao Olivia playing Silverquill like a Silverquill
13:58 why she wink like that it scares me
I saw that and I was about to say she's fitting for the college of cutting words. But you beat me to it.
Facts, i was like she reppin the college hard with that line
@@clarkwilmerding4343 That's not fear
I die to drawing too many cards...
On his tombstone it’ll write:
“He did what he loved to the end: drawing cards”
wow
Best part of magic
Is that a reference to the Theros Beyond Death Game Knghts?
@@joshhart7837 xD indeed
Jlk truly died doing what he loved
Josh as Prismari:
“I’m not exactly sure what they’re going to do when I play them, but it’s gonna be pretty nice!”
“I know he had it, I just forgot.”
“So anyway, I started casting.”
Olivia/liliana playing the silverquill deck:how many cards are in your deck?
Josh:...
Josh: Has a crazy turn
Kat: Wipes the board
Josh: "This is going to destroy me and leave me at very little."
Also Josh: Has an even crazier turn
"Does it resolve?"
"No. Well, yes. But not for me"
"I love when you make decks that are smarter than you"
"Why give him the chance? I wanna kill him myself"
Olivia was born for Silverquill.
Right? Hahaha!
She should be a s silverquill proffesor
The decks thats smarter then you gave me a heartly chuckle
And she gave Silverquill the most apropos victory: getting someone to sign an ill-advised contract.
Both her commentary and outfit were on point this game. She embodies silverquill.
The timestamps for the college promotional videos are:
1:47 Witherbloom
2:31 Silverquill
6:55 Quandrix
7:58 Lorehold
9:09 Prismari
You’re doing the best of work, my friend. I thank you.
Thank yee kind sir.
What was that even about?
Goat
Also some of the taglines they made up are better that the official college taglines
I love how it was Prismari Command (with that amazing animation) that let Josh start the engine for that absolute value. It was like he really called in the best and most powerful mages of the Prismari house, and they released the power of their magic. So much synergy and flavour to the deck!!
The way Jimmy laughed when Alter of Dementia hit is everything
It ain’t game knights if Josh doesn’t take a 15 minute turn, draw his entire deck, then lose from it. Greatest show ever.
This is why if you copy multiple Explosions, point at least some of the card draw at the person you're killing. Otherwise this is bound to happen.
@@Putrefax Couldnt though Olivia was phased out
@@Deus20112012 I think he meant that he should have pointed the first copy at kat
The entire time Josh was going off I was just thinking " Josh, please, for the love of whatever you believe in, don't pull an Uro."
He pulled an Uro.
Wow spoiler alert
If i had a Nickle for every time Josh Lee Kwai got milled out by an Alter of Dementia, I'd have two Nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird it happened twice.
You have earned this like. Excellent work
How much would you have for every time Jimmy was the first one out?
Honestly i pretty sure It will happen again
Had to scroll way too far for this comment. I was thinking this myself!
So, when Mizzix's Mastery resolved... all the cards had targets right? Therefore, making a token copy would be an entity that couldn't be targeted with the Haste Card... oops?
I'm confused. Can you explain?
@@genericweeb3816 I believe he was meant to choose targets for every card before resolving any of the effects of those cards. One of those effects created a creature token after resolving it, so that token didn't exist to be targeted beforehand.
That aside, we all make mistakes, and since it wasn't a super competitive match it's alright since it seemed everybody was having a good time.
Hope this helps!
@@Pancakeli oh right thank you
@@Pancakeli from my experience i thought you chose them as they came to priority
though I only played on MTGA
I didn't catch this, but I believe you are correct. Spells with targets must declare them when they are put ON the stack, before anything resolves. Well done.
You guys missed a golden opportunity to have the professor back on.
Tought the same. How was he not the narrator for lorehold?
At he had *some* part in the quandrix trailer.
Dont forget this is sponsored by WoTC and he can definitely be a little critical of them sometimes. May have nothing to do with it... who knows?
@@TheBigDirty716 "He can definitely be a little critical of them sometimes"
A lot, but I don't think this is the reason we did not see him. He has been on the show plenty of times before so I am not so sure WoTC have a say in the guest list. In fact, from what I remember they said WoTC sponsors them for early access to their videos to check that they are all family-friendly since it is their game. They said so in their TWD secret lair video.
As did WOTC, not giving him a preview card.
Maybe they asked him but he was still salty about it.
The irony of Josh's Raycon bit when he has a turn playing over 12 cards.
Came for this comment and was not disappointed.
To be fair, it was a different situation; in the ad he was not annoyed at the other players taking a long time to do stuff, and was simply acknowledging he was not able to do anything as he was tapped out. And I'm sure he'd be fine if a tapped out player sat back and let him (and the other not-tapped-out players) do stuff until they could next interact.
I was hoping he would have taken the Raycons out to find out he lost. Lol
When Olivia said “I love when you make decks smarter than you,” I felt that.
Probably why she exploded
@@OhNoTheFace Olivia didn’t explode. Kat did.
@@OhNoTheFace Olivia won...
@@cacs2201 spoilers!.... I had to work.... no spoilers until the 24 hour mark.
i enjoy making decks that masquerade as weak ones, lul my foe into beliving i am small when infact i suddenly win becuase janky bs
46:57 if jimmy waited to fetch till josh headed to combat or responded to targeted removal on the retreat that might’ve saved him
Josh is in blue. A counter spell was a possibility
That is possible but unlikely since it wasn’t a spell but an ability and the sublime epiphany was already in his graveyard
The thing is, the fetch should have saved him. All of Josh’s Mizzix’s Mastery spells needed valid targets as they were put on the stack, so the Accelerate shouldn’t have been able to give the copy of Veyran haste, because that copy didn’t exist yet.
"I die to drawing too many cards." It's how he would have wanted to go.
48:08 “I love when you make decks that are smarter than you” - Olivia, with the most Silverquill thing you could say in that moment, had me cackling all the way!
Kyle Hill representing Quandrix is my favorite thing ❤️
Olivia was a blast this game, bring her on again
What's more is in another game knights episode Josh said "Jimmy's an attacker." which makes it even crazier as if math is for blockers and less for attackers then why is Jimmy in the math college?
I think it's super funny that Prof is in Quandrix because he has said multiple times "I'm an English major, not a math major"
That being said, definitely the best school for him
Love these videos for each school!
The fact that JLK's face isn't photoshopped on the alter of dementia art is the biggest missed opportunity in game knights history.
I support this, let's see it happen!
Josh: "I paid for all of the cards, I will use all of the cards"
How many cards are in your library, JLK
Witherbloom has my heart, but that Silverquill bump was on point!
56:56 Jimmy's laugh and stare into the camera, lmaoooo.
Silverquill, Quandrix, Witherbloom & Prismari: representing their schools by competing in a Game Knights melee.
Lorehold: behind the camera recording this bout for archival purposes (to be stored in time capsules in case of Phyrexians or Eldrazi).
This a good one
Who was the voice for Lorehold?!
@@kevingibson5966 Sounds like Marshall Sutcliffe
the videos of all the schools feels like the magic extended universe.
My brain has rattled together ad ideas for different color pair colleges or tri color colleges being like AP classes harder majors. The extended universe of colleges could be very very deep in mtg.
Blue White is law school? maybe?
Black Red automotive, or demonic engineering?
Green Red is Athletic freaks or military??
White Green is idfk lol.
Blue Black is space and time? Astrology or something.
Idk lol. There's not really another main 5 studied that the schools from strixhaven aren't already covering (Art, Math, Literature, History, Science) and my ideas are loosely based on what the other color pairs already touch on in lore.
@@chrispy6953 I´d say blue/black would be more like detective or criminal inteligence departments. Like Investigation scene and stuff
@@chrispy6953 If we're going at it from the Strixhaven "the differences are more important than the similarities" approach, to differentiate it from Ravnica, I'd say it's more:
* White-Blue: Self-Restraint vs Going too far to achieve aims - Psychology (most psycholgists agree both are needed sometimes, and being stuck at either end results in being too uptight or being too reckless, but those are the two ends)
* Blue-Black: Nuturing skills/knowledge/etc vs Exploitation of those things - Social Sciences (pretty obvious when applied to people in a society)
* Black-Red: Long-Term Earnings vs Short-Term Profit- Economics (pretty obvious)
* Red-Green: Changing Impulse vs Ingrained Instinct - Medical school (how different doctors diagnose things)
* Green-White: Nature vs Civilization - Geography (the natural geography of the world vs civilization's impact in terms of state divisions, etc)
The whole skit showing the different Strixhaven houses was really cool! Felt like a movie. It actually makes me wish there was a Magic movie based on Strixhaven.
I love when Olivia plays. Everytime she is probably my favorite guest/ person/ team player/ favorite. She is my favorite
That frikin Prismari Command animation was .... * *Chefs Kiss* *
I was blown away! Had to replay it a couple times
Yeah that was amazing. I too was blown away
Geniusly interpreted from the cards art, hands down the best animation in entire series
Probably my favorite in this episode
Yea this was just amazing! That artist cant get get enough credits for these living cards animation!
i love how this entire game was like a little early game setup, then josh comboing off and then olivia just kicking him in the balls without any effort and then taking the W.
@Jack Napier its just another mizzix/niv mizzet spellslinger dude in izzet, its essentially the same card with the same deck behind it we had for years by now xD
Yeah, Josh shouldn't have gone at Jimmy so hard 🙄 it looks like good game play but it's greedy and rather ignorant because there's a whole mother person still. This isn't the Josh show. Lol.
@Jack Napier you are wrong
@Jack Napier I disagree very much, maybe its what is wrong with that color combo in Strixhaven but those cards already existed before Strix, and Strix gives us awesome cards in other colors and for other decks. Not to mention a fun lore/story
Olivia played like a champ!!! Every card and every play she made was fantastic. Great episode, great game.
That Prismari Command animation was more fabulous than it needed to be and I’m all for it :D
JLK: I fear nothing, but that one thing
*Alter of Dementia*
JLK: It scares me
he went out doing what he loved most
drawing cards
He deserves it
One day he will learn just binary drawing isnt everything
29:40 “Josh has been a problem... 40 episodes..” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
My favorite part about Game Knights is how they walk you through every step
WHAT AN INTRO, yall always find a way to wow me, incredible content everyone !
whoever did the Prismari Command animation needs a raise, holy shit!
saw it 13 times
Yeah, like, do they get fed with extra graphics from wizards or similar? Just doing this of a single picture is insane
@@lennartherrmann3057 No they've said before that they do it all in-house

@@HalcyonVentures well thats really impressive
Josh’s Epitaph: he died like he lived, drawing cards. What a way to go.
I love how Olivia’s win was still Silverquill themed in a serendipitous way: She killed someone by making them sign their name
Yo how bout a spoiler alert you jerk
You can't target the Veyran token with the Accelerate copy, because you have to choose targets for Accelerate before the Sublime Epiphany copy resolves (aka before the token is created)
This is what I was thinking about the size of his veyran copy too. The spells should have all already been on the stack so it wouldn't have seen all of those casts to get bigger, right?
"I love when you make decks that are smarter than you" - Quote of the match
Olivia chose silverquill for a reason.
I went down here searching for this comment hahaha
Also applicable to Yu-Gi-Oh.
This women is epic. I love her
The Silverquill representative had all the best one-liners. Am I surprised? Nah. Entertained? Heck yes.
"I have to choose my targets and won't be able to change them afterwards"
-- Proceeds to give haste to a token that was just created
Oh, true! Wow, that was a misplay that legitimately changed the course of the game.
And Jimmy Vesuva'd a land that came in at the same time, seems to be a common mistake.
Also he copied Thermal Flux twice and didn't change the targets. The second and third one would be countered because the target is not legal (it wasn't a nonsnow permanent).
Wouldn't the copies be on the stack already when he makes the token? If he is resolving them they should all be on the stack, meaning they are already cast. That means the token of his commander shouldn't be getting pumped either.
@@Daz1One for Flux you could just say Snow-unsnow-snow or pick 3 diff ones, it was a choice that had no effect really so he just picked the same one
Josh in-character: "UNLIMITED POWER!!!!" *annihilates two other casters at once*
2 seconds later: *runs out of power*
Best commander play I've seen, amazing use of that deck Josh, Nice one Josh!!
I love how everyone else is in their respective "college" costumes while Josh wears his typical hawaiian shirt like he's on a summer vacation. 😂
That's very much the Prismari thing to do
@@corvus15 LMAO I was going to write the same thing :P
if i fits, i sits
-How many cards are you willing to draw in a turn josh?
Josh: Yes
The production value of these episodes is unrivaled, they're such a joy to watch. I can only imagine how much time and effort goes into each one. Thank you!
Fun Fact: Explosion lets Target Player draw X cards meaning Josh messed up real bad
Josh had no choice. Teferi's protection protects the player from being targeted by anything so Josh had no choice but to draw those cards himself. If Josh tried to target Olivia to draw all effects would be nullified and Kat wouldn't have been knocked out.
@@jeffreyplumb4226 No, the drawing is the second sentence of the spell, and targets are declared when it's on the stack. He could have targeted her with both halves of the spell and even the copy and the spell would try to do as much as it could. When she died from the second spell going off, the draw 16 part would just be the only part that fizzles (since he could target her with both parts of the second spell since she would have still been at 16 life).
@@chriscunningham6401 that's interesting magic is complicated sometimes
I loved all the cameos in the school ads. Kyle hill is such a quandrix professor
YES, I loved spotting people! And as a Quandrix student, I felt so represented! 💚💙
Dont forget the professor, and should have added Matt patt
I was very surprised by all the people in those adds
Who was the voice for Lorehold?
I can’t even imagine how long it must have took just to storyboard the five colleges prior to filming, let alone write, film, and edit that sequence. Simply incredible!
this game was amazing, the prismari deck looks like a ton of fun. if only josh put elixir of immortality in it he wouldve easily won. still, he played it to near perfection
the effort you guys put into producing this series is very much appreciated!
This episode was amazing. Olivia represented Silverquill very well getting herself in the spotlight with all the talking. Jimmy had to math his way out of a dire situation as expected of Quandrix, and Josh with the crazier Prismari turns.
And Kat was a really good example of what Witherbloom is all about: dying.
@@schwindelier1449 He deck was somehow reaaaaaaly weak tbf
@@luemece josh had insane card draw, jimmy had insane ramp olivia got a little bit of both. Kat didn't get to do much of either. Which happens from time to time.

The Table : "Oh no..."
Judges watching it : "Oh no..."
I definitely said "oh no" out loud to myself, but it was quickly followed by a "Go! Josh, Go!"
@@Kattywagon29 I was just screaming "NOOOOOOOOOOO NOT LIKE THAT" the whole stack resolution
it hurts and entertaining at the same time
Played a game with eye of the storm where stacks got 50 spells high. This was easy.
Hehe I love that card
@@TheCorruptionCore it is legit my least favorite card and that is the one time I saw it. I ended up knocked out of the game and just reffed the other three using it. Way too complex
I cannot for the life of me stop watching the silverquill trailer
26:02 small rules mistake: all 3 Thermal Flux targeted the same (non-snow) permanent, meaning they were all the same mode of making target non-snow permanent snow. The first to resolve would make it snow and the other 2 would have invalid targets and "fizzle"
Hearing the Professor in the Quandrix intro filled me with joy
I heard his voice and instantly lost my mind lol perfect casting choice
"How many cards are in your library, Josh?"
Josh: "Why do I hear boss music?"
First time MTG player, bought a Strixhaven commander deck and found this UA-cam video.... The editing is unbelievable.... This is amazing!
GREAT job on the collage previews guys! You really nailed it!
when Josh said "bury my opponents in an avalanche of value", I knew he's gonna die by milling-out
Okay, that wheel of fortune animation was pure gold
The person who made that should get a new fridgare kitchen set with seafoam green refrigerator and matching washer and dryer!
Came here to post about it. What a great visual
Really loved the attention to detail with all the set dressing and wardrobe! As always, the production quality continues to improve! You guys are killing it!
I think this might be my favourite episode, Jimmy’s laugh when she throws down the altar killed me 😂😂
"I love when you make decks that are smarter than you" - Olivia
Dying from laughter - Me
Damn I didn't think Black/White could play Burn like that!
It was beautifully cutting
amazing
Izzet/prizmari is usually smarter than you
That comment makes even more sense knowing now that Josh's one single turn took almost two hours haha
The Silverquill player winning with Sign in Blood is actually really flavorful

I know, right?
Prismari tries to win by an over-the-top, complicated maneuver. Silverquill wins through expertly applied contract law.
@@Bluecho4 imagine if the prismari deck had elixir of imortality in it.
I like that with only 3 cards in the library and Josh's Jori En out there, Sign in Blood was enough to win, unless Josh could win a single card or his first card killed Jori En.
Those college intros were better than half the official mtg licensed trailers I’ve seen! U guys were spot on with those!!
Love the school intros. So many great MtG community members. All my faves.
Josh: Draws literally every card in his deck, sets up multiple synergy engines and knocks out 2 players in the same turn
Jimmy: L A N D
lmaoo xDD
Sometimes I think his decks are a little 'too' focused, especially on the set-up; he often spends the first few turns doing something...but then just keeps doing it. Which is probably because his decks are tooooo loaded with those set-up cards, meaning it's all he has to do (the wheel hand he showed kinda shows this). I didn't actually see ANY spell he'd cheat with his commander, whereas I'd expect a deck like that to be running 16-20, along with 20-30 cheaper instants/sorceries (which includes every ramp instant/sorcery less than/equal to 3cmc).
@@andrewsparkes8829 Yeah the deck he built this week was absolutely terrible. He's not even playing a single removal spell in the entire list aside from 1 broken bond, which is sorcery speed enchantment/artifact removal. It's so bad.
7:50 the professor and kyle hill collab i never knew i wanted
I knew I recognized the face, but I thought it was Andrew Dotson.
The editing in this is amazing, this is the first game knights video I've had the pleasure to see and I'm in love
You guys are amazing. You have inspired me in so many ways ever since I started watching and playing magic the gathering.
The college videos are just pure fire
Not only Fire, but Water, Earth and Air - Too!
they are *ridiculously* good. like god damn, they are amazing
I mean if you like pointless spam in the middle of a video, sure they’re ok
@@apophis456 - Lol! Aren't you a bundle of fun!
Lol pure cheese dude
"There's no way you die to mill Josh."
Ah yes That episode 😂
Do you know what episode that was?
@@payload3778 pretty sure it was the Theros Beyond Death episode
This was awesome!
And unfortunately the last episode of Game Knights I hadn't seen before ;____;
Now I'm all caught up and want MORE!!!
Thank you people for entertaining me and enabling me to learn more about my favorite game c:
I feel like I became a better player just by watching so many matches.
Thank you people!
BROOOO, the production quality in these vids is insane, keep it up game knights!
Prismari Command's animation just made me lose my mind, I've rewinded that specific part like TEN times
Absolutely phenomenal!
Finally Freddy Wong makes his debut in a Command Zone video, I've been waiting for this for so long.
Where??
@@Bazman5000 he’s in one of the intros
The guy in quandrix?
Those intros were amazing, and so are the card animations, and so are the ads! The editing here is just the best.
I guess the altar of dementia/sign in blood works, but since it's a strixhaven set I was really hoping for him to get done in by Secret Rendezvous. With 3 cards in the library that would have been exactly enough for him to die on his upkeep.
