Recently I have gone back and watched all the episodes starting with episode 1. I LOVE, and I MEAN LOVE, the evolution of the “begin.” Good god you all are great! Keep it up my boys.
Yea it’s awesome because I have been contemplating swapping vial with kraum and building adding some more draw and stuff! That was awesome by the way great work!
At first I hated the "begin" change because it was too loud, but then you started to really be creative with it XD I now really appreciate the various shenanigans HAHA Today's "ok, we need to film a black metal music video" is haunting XD
I still wonder how Malcolm would work in a Jeskai shell with Akiri. Good artifacts can pump Akiri to be a beater, and white gives stax pieces since the combo is on combat.
@dylan, have you considered running Kediss instead of Kraum? The paring still keeps you in the same colors but also lets you get 3 treasures whenever Malcolm connects instead of 1
I run this partner pair and you generate so many treasures. Casting cards like an overloaded Cyclonic Rift, Pull From Tomorrow and BSZ, is so satisfying especially when you have mana/treasures still left over.
Hey guys, I am a big fan of your channel from S.Korea and I really appreciate your contents!! Big fan of MTG , Big fan of Competitive Magic and Big fan of Play To Win * PS I just purchased your T shirts and hoodie I am so excited :)
this is ab to be really overshare-y lol but i'm getting out of a 7 year relationship w/ somebody i love a lot (which turns out is rlly painful) and your videos are such a joy to watch. seriously, what a wonderful, bright spot in my day !!! i'm hoping i can start playing some cedh soon myself :')
I've played Izzet Polyhorn a bit (which is a great budget cedh deck), both Rograkh and Kediss. But, I hadn't really thought about Kraum. I guess I wouldn't want to give up the speed of the polymorph package in exchange for the grind of Kraum. Pretty sweet deck though.
Love the Malcolm/Kraum deck. Are there any plans to do another video on the deck lists on the database? I’m interested in what opinions you guys have on some of the lists.
My main deck is Malcolm//Kediss and while it doesn't play exactly like Malcolm//Kraum the general game plan is very much find a way to turbo out Glinthorn so I can safely say that the ability to make SO much mana while also playing land hate in Back to Basics really can't be underrated. Also having access to Magda to tutor your Glinthorn in Izzet is clutch. Overall a really sweet deck and I'm glad to see Dylan playing a underexplored partner pairing for Malcolm! 2 Dubs doesn't hurt either :D
@@willthetrill77 using Maskwood Nexus and or Pyre of Heroes along with creature type change enchantments. A back up win con is Reckless Fireweaver turned into a pirate with Malcolm means that one treasure ends the game like a pseudo Glinthorn.
@@kstandish42 That makes sense. It was unclear to me in the initial comment since mention of those types of effects had been left out, and I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something.
it might be worth looking at putting keddiss in the command zone instead of kraum, keddiss means youre always gonna hit 3 opponents and make 3 treasures, plus theres curriosity that you can use then to draw stupidly well. The other thing i want to say about malcolm is that if you run magda brazen outlaw, reckless fireweaver and maskwood nexus you can win with just magda and malcolm as long as you have 10 treasures to sac. love malcolm
I really like Malcolm decks. Unfortunately I play in 3 player games and learned it's very hard to win when the combo doesn't net you mana and has to stop when the first player dies. :(
@@funsponge9099 It is considered attacking until the end of combat step. Example; you can activate ninjutsu after combat damage has been dealt. Not sure why it works this way, but it be like it do.
No one answered the why. The reason is that the combat phase has 5 steps. Beginning of Combat Step -> Declare Attackers Step -> Declare Blockers Step -> Combat Damage Step -> End of Combat Step. A creature "is attacking" if it is declared as an attacker in the declare attackers step and it will continue to be "an attacking creature" until the end of combat step (inclusive).
i do cantrip malcom and breeches. everything turns to pirate. with cast trigger global pings. it just goes bonkers and holds it's own against cedh. at a 110 budget tempted to put the money cards in it
I made a pauper Malcom / Breeches that wins by turning ping critter into pirates and untapping them with Freed From the Reel. Pretty fun deck! Even with tutors tho it was difficult to go off sometimes. Breeches was nice in that regard. Just go for value.
@@TehSeksyManz mine was also a budget deck till people wanted to see it go full bur asap. Sadly only 8 ways to turn things into pirates, 9 pingers, and lots of draw discard and wheels. So It's nice to know others play pirate lazOrz.
Not that Dylan needed it, but why not Dargo over Kraum? That would have represented a 1 mana 7/5 trample for most the game. Seems good if your glinthorn gets got.
@@PlaytoWinMTG that was my thought just not sure if breach freeze has limitations on when it can't win. Or if not having thoracle was a bonus because other decks can't oppo it.
Matzig shouldn't have been able to play Culling Ritual into Lavinia. Normally these misplays are small and don't affect the outcome of the game, but that's a huge change to the boardstate here!
Recently I have gone back and watched all the episodes starting with episode 1. I LOVE, and I MEAN LOVE, the evolution of the “begin.” Good god you all are great! Keep it up my boys.
The best arc of Cam’s story in this series was when he lived in a block on the wall
That begin was so visually depressing lol
The 50k subscriber special video should just be a montage of all of the "begins"
been working my way back :)
Where did the whole begin skit come to light ?
I love how the begins just keep getting more wild!!!! When will “begin” be an actual small movie the boys film haha. Great games always!
I'm waiting for the Begin couch gag.
I'm waiting for them to make it Major Motion Picture
Can't get over this, 'BEGIN'. Intro gets more wild and more haunting every episode. I love it
That Wheel of Fortune after feeding the fish several times in that one turn was so well timed! Great play Dylan
This was an excellent showing of Malcolm/Kraum. Loved the episode!
Yea it’s awesome because I have been contemplating swapping vial with kraum and building adding some more draw and stuff! That was awesome by the way great work!
Note for Jorn players: His trigger is on attack, not on combat damage! He actually untaps before they even declare blockers!
Every day without Play to Win is a day without sunshine. God damn I love this channel. Realest dudes in the business
I feel like Malcolm is one of those cards that was supposed to say “combat damage” but they forgot before it was printed
At this point we just need a compilation video of the begins. In an ironic way your videos are more about the begins than the ends
This!! 💯 this
I'm only here to hear Dylan say "animetiddies" with a straight face
Cam's "Cast Back to Basics??" sounded exactly like Hiccup from HTTYD and now I can't unhear it.
Malcolm/Kraum looks REALLY strong.
I keep going back and forth about kraum vs breeches. Kraum is bigger, gets better cards most of the time. Breeches is cheaper and gets more quantity.
@@matthewherrmann9526 Kraum is almost always better than Breeches in cEDH.
8 months later and he's one of the best topping Commanders currently lol
Omg I’m loving these last couple “begin” intros. Very solid aesthetic
play to win: uploads new video
me: instant like
love your content guys!!
At first I hated the "begin" change because it was too loud, but then you started to really be creative with it XD I now really appreciate the various shenanigans HAHA
Today's "ok, we need to film a black metal music video" is haunting XD
love the creativity on the new **begin** you guys do every episode
Love the Blue Moon style malcolm list, fantastic showing of that and the power of wheel of fortune.
These "Begin" Scenes are getting fucking wild, I love them so much
I still wonder how Malcolm would work in a Jeskai shell with Akiri. Good artifacts can pump Akiri to be a beater, and white gives stax pieces since the combo is on combat.
the "begin" portion of these episodes started out metal as fuck and are slowly taking us into a descent of abstract madness
@dylan, have you considered running Kediss instead of Kraum? The paring still keeps you in the same colors but also lets you get 3 treasures whenever Malcolm connects instead of 1
Phenomenal idea
Or Breeches who adds a form of card draw and is a pirate
I suggested that pairing forever ago when they originally made the Malcolm/ x deck
I run this partner pair and you generate so many treasures. Casting cards like an overloaded Cyclonic Rift, Pull From Tomorrow and BSZ, is so satisfying especially when you have mana/treasures still left over.
@@marcellusjordan5681 right? Plus opens up curiosity effects for card adv

I'm here to watch Dylan take 1 to the face over and over. "Thank you".
Nice games! It’s nice to see Jorn getting some play. The deck is really nice and versatile
Game 1: once the two opponents with a lower life total die, the loop no longer makes 3 mana! I think Matzig gets another turn.
GHB only needs 2 mana for his effect, he was going treasure positive for 32 triggers, so it’s all good
@@jmarksthespot Ahh right, thanks
Great games as always. Any chance there’s an updated Blood Pod game coming up with the New Capenna stuff soon? That would be super cool!
No one would have thought the guy who mulled to 3 would win. Wheel of fortune mvp

Another good morning for a new episode of Play to Win 👍🏽
Wow, I didn't realize Malcom/Glinthorn was so free.
Yea it's stupid especially since as a 3 drop its searchable by like 5+ cards
The “begin” is evolving so swimmingly
Love seeing Tymna/Kraum Bear-Weavers lists and I love the name 😂 for a list I'm currently tweaking, I call it Hunchback of Notre Dame 😂😂😂
Nice to see Kess, still playing consultation Kess and i love the lines
I look forward to this all week!
I've played Izzet Polyhorn a bit (which is a great budget cedh deck), both Rograkh and Kediss. But, I hadn't really thought about Kraum. I guess I wouldn't want to give up the speed of the polymorph package in exchange for the grind of Kraum. Pretty sweet deck though.
Dylan! Check out the Malcolm/Kediss polyhorn build. You can get a LED every combat*!
*One that doesn't require you to discard your empty hand!
Jorn is very cool. Would love to see more Jorn.
That game was hot. Malcolm Kraum put in work
Wild games! Although, Jorn untaps on attack, not on combat damage, referring to the final turn in game 2.
I've been dying for a malcolm video I didn't even care who the partner was
Love the Malcolm/Kraum deck. Are there any plans to do another video on the deck lists on the database? I’m interested in what opinions you guys have on some of the lists.
It's the Berenstain Bears, unfortunately it is one of the examples of the Mandela effect because most people think it is Bearstien Bears.
begin gets more and more cursed. I LOVE IT
One of the best parts about Sunday
These "begin" are getting very artistic.

"cast Back to Basics?" ....Fuck. 🤣
I love these matches and you guys keep it up!!!
Wooo! Best part of the week 😁😁
SIXERSSSSS Lets gooo you like Sixers and MTG immediate follow!
Dylan, it’s Malcolm/ Kediss bro!!! Give the lizard sum ❤️
Love the intro

@@marcellusjordan5681 they do in fact but Magda can fetch maskwood and then it makes fireweaver a dragon, so you can fetch it from there
Very nice Dylan! Great games.
Pirate jank! Love it!!
At 5:15, what was the logic for Rille playing a LED and a git probe into the remora?
those Naruto comments are my fav thing ever
Where can I found those fantastic proxies of dual that Cam is playing? And also the "zendikar dual"
Was wondering the exact same thing, those full art proxy duals look spicy
Came for the Sweeds, subbed for the muli to 3. Y’all wild, keep being sexy
Hey guys, is there any chance we will see Cam's Kenrith deck again? Or even a "How Good is Kenrith"?
Great Content as always!
Are the "Begin"s turning into a creepypasta? Like 'Marble Hornets' from back in the day or something? 🤔
Swagged up plays
I really like Malcolm decks. Unfortunately I play in 3 player games and learned it's very hard to win when the combo doesn't net you mana and has to stop when the first player dies. :(
Really cool episode!
hahaha I was right about comment "Did you just cut out Cam's DRC triggers to save time?" but uhhhh yea.. guess not.
Does anyone know of a way to make a Playlist of all of the episodes so I can just leave it running? Or is that something they would have to do?
Where are the stax, Cameron? Where are the stax? 🤣
Yeey Sixers Shirt! ❤️
Dylan with the Sixers shirt! You a fan (I am and everything is terrible at the moment). You guys Philly locals?
hi there. i really enjoy your video. wonder if it's ok for me to use some of the clips in my own video(with mandarin commentary.) thank you
Hey I was just wondering what kind of webcam stand you guys use
I have a budget Malcolm/Kraum deck and it feels very cEDH. I won turn 5 last with it.
Damn on a mull to 3 still won ez af, Malcolm is sick
Well two people played competitive EDH there...
Nas cores vermelho e azul, malcolm e kedis, faria uma melhor combinação?
So is Kraum there just for the colors?
JEEBUS Dylan! crazy
So who else would like to see cam where a leaf village bandana next time? Lol
B E G I N
never gets old
Will you play Malcom/breeches Dylan?
Guys, do you have the Kess list?
is a creature still attacking after it has dealt damage? i thought damage was dealt at the end of the combat phase?
Yes
@@PlaytoWinMTG am i dumb for asking why?

Why Matzig didn’t counter Wheel with Pact in Game 2? He did have enough mana to pay
Not with back to basics in play
Not that Dylan needed it, but why not Dargo over Kraum? That would have represented a 1 mana 7/5 trample for most the game. Seems good if your glinthorn gets got.
Rip James harden he’s like 65% of his old self half the time I hope he comes back strong next year that hamstring is really holding him back.
I think it's better to use Breeches, than kraum with Malcolm
I came for cEDH and found Dylan wiping the floor with some poor souls. Also, I came to suggest a best enchantress in cEDH video.
Is there a reason Malcolm|Kraum isnt running Thoracle ?
Ya there’s no need. Is there a reason TO run it here?
@@PlaytoWinMTG that was my thought just not sure if breach freeze has limitations on when it can't win. Or if not having thoracle was a bonus because other decks can't oppo it.

begin is getting too good, make sure it doesn't overshadow the gameplay ! lol

Another game?!? WHERE'S THE J DARG DECK TECH?!? 😭😭😭
*laughing* "that's so shitty"
