It is good to know Richard's renowned skill is not actually politics, but just straight up mindcontrol. "Hey Seth, could you nuke your own board, kill my two opponents, and have 1 card left in hand?" "Why yes, no problem!"
The Dune Movie Deck hardest part is picking your Shai-Hulud. I like Novablast Wurm even though a boardwipe attacker is terrible in go-wide, because his passing really does cleanse the earth.
I always felt like whenever a Commander player brought up draw-hate plus wheels they were just capping to defend the fact they want to greedily draw a million cards. Glad to see Phil confirm those suspicions.
Lots of comments on the all politics video last week said it was their favourite episode. But to me, this was miles ahead of that. Happy to see Phil doing Phil things and not dying turn 6.
Phils play style is straight up what has started Crim on his vigilante arc. Fancy thinking it is cool to draw 15 cards a rotation but then being happy to lose just to get rid of a player for stopping that. Ohh, Nice Sheoldred for a follow up.
So, Crim played the mirror on his three opponents, and none of them liked it. They all wanted to draw more than one card; they all wanted to play stax spells; Crim just benefitted from those things instead of the original player who attempted to. In the end, Crim really wasn't the threat. The other players brought the threat and didn't like it aimed back at themselves! Phil just got so angry at all the stax pieces, but on his next turn after Crim lost, he was literally giggling about running out his own stax pieces! Crim, how do you stay so calm showing up to play commander so often just to be killed early? It's like each game, you start by saying, "How many turns can I last this time?" GG, bro! GG!
If you play notion thief to steal card draw & can’t defend yourself you die. Creatures coming into play tapped stops nobody from playing magic. On the other hand strangling/stealing the tables card draw in an asymmetrical effect does. If you play significant stax pieces you get targeted. Stax players should embrace the heat (as Crim has) or take out their stax pieces.
I think it's telling that in zero politics week Crim dies first twice. Also I love the deck Phil build, I have to play that myself. That looked like fun.
This first game proves that either Richard is truly Muad'dib and can see the future, or that the crew truly just wants to hand him the game because everyone is afraid of killing the codfather lol.
42:20 what a beautiful sight. Crim out of the game first. Richard with weird dune proxies, Seth with an upside down Sokenzan next to a right way up Sulfurous spring next to an upside down command tower as Phil says. "I can finally draw cards again 😍" as he literally kisses his card. Commander clash is the best
Gollum is not a goblin. He is a Stoor, one of the three kinds of Hobbits. He is also twisted by the One Ring unnaturally extending his life far beyond what it should be (much like how the Ring-Wraiths were once Men)
@@burningpapersun1 no, goblins in Middle-Earth are orcs that come from the Misty Mountain, so they are the decedents of the Elves that were captured by Morgoth and tortured and twisted into the original orcs.
I wonder if Richard will read the Dune books and see how he feels when Paul's son becomes a psychic human sandworm hybrid emperor who marries his sister. Shit gets wild.
Those games were off the hook. I frickin love no politics. It stop ganging up, copiloting and coaching which is really frustrating. Play your deck as intended, respond at your own will- this was fair magic and fun as hell to watch😊
@@ThePlayer4our or you're Crim, kept trying to deflect every time he did something that someone wanted to deal with. and would you look at the result Crim dies first when he can't deflect every card he plays and card he draws as "i just have lands" while holding counterspells, removal, and wincons.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but when Crim plays Breach the Multiverse, couldn't Phil have done something along this line: Crim: Plays Breach, gets Notion Thief plus three other creatures. Phil: Orders triggers from compost and Faerie Artisan so he gets his own copy of Notion thief (Assuming this works since Crim's stolen creatures technically come in at the same time). Crim: Crim's Notion Thief triggers off Phil's Compost triggers, thus triggering Phil's Notion Thief copy to steal the draws back. Since Notion thief's replacement effects only work once per instance of card draw, Phil still would have gotten his Compost triggers. I'm not a judge and I'm not critiquing how anyone played the game, I just think about these things.
He could have done this, yes, however he only got to keep one of the copies because Faerie Artisans, and he wanted a Void Winnower more than a notion thief when everyone was already afraid of drawing
They are playing "try not to choke and give the game to Richard" and are failing every single time The moment Seth said "I'll kill Crim and Phill" I knew Richard had won
Council of four only triggers for the player who's turn it is. If you have the Council and draw your second card on an opponent's turn it wont trigger.
Crimmm I gotta know. What rarity is your Baby Dragon? I think given that the text is glowing its either the Ultra Rare or the Secret but it's hard to tell from camera distance.
What was stopping Phil's tokens created by Faerie Artisans from being exiled? Whenever someone casts a new creature the old ones are gone. Was I missing something?
It's when a creature etbs, not when it is cast, so Richard's Elesh Norn prevents the Faerie Artisans from triggering. Since making a new token and exiling the old one is all part of the same trigger, Elesh Norn also prevents Phil from getting rid of his old tokens, basically locking them in as long as Elesh Norn remains
Gollum is not a goblin but is maybe in the process of becoming one? The first orcs were corruptions of elves, and Gollum is mid process of corruption by the ring. So maybe sort of? LotR lore-knowers, corrections welcome
Elish Norn shouldn’t have been able to attack, entered tapped from authority also she didn’t have haste 46:23, also at 50:41 Phil would have gained 24 life
The issue is Crim stole all of the various stax pieces out of everyone elses decks and focused all the hate on him. Void winnower by itself by itself plus the notion thief pissed off people who needed the extra cards to deal with the void winnower. All that theft but no real pay off

That play was so confusing…

"Would you kindly hand me the game?"
Phil being worried about politicking on accident when his only politicking id usually pleading to not get killed on turn 6
i need a video compilation of all of Crim's Magic lingo. "Watery Dave" absolutely killed me.
whats everyone's favorite. i never say meathook anymore, it's meatball massacre for me every time

I’m also partial to Unholy Meat.
Chicken nugget
Richard literally built a DIY field of the dead deck
One of the things I've missed the most about the old format was all the off-topic conversations you'd have. Glad to have some in this game.
*Seth casts Blasphemous Act*
Richard: "This is an extermination. They're picking my family off one by one."
Richard not running impact tremors seems criminal, it also fits with the Dune theme perfectly.
Warleaders call is a little on theme as well
@@taylorjohnson5148 agreed and it’s in the deck, so playing impact tremors basically doubles the chance of drawing it.
Watching them try to not accidentally politic is hilarious
I like Phil's "dead" token, with the little sad face :)
The Dune Movie Deck hardest part is picking your Shai-Hulud. I like Novablast Wurm even though a boardwipe attacker is terrible in go-wide, because his passing really does cleanse the earth.
I like Argothian Wurm
"This is not politics, but..." Week
I always felt like whenever a Commander player brought up draw-hate plus wheels they were just capping to defend the fact they want to greedily draw a million cards. Glad to see Phil confirm those suspicions.
The worst part about this series is it only happens once per week :(
Awesome episode!
Lots of comments on the all politics video last week said it was their favourite episode. But to me, this was miles ahead of that. Happy to see Phil doing Phil things and not dying turn 6.
That first game was an emotional roller coaster. What a game

No politics week AKA Phil week.
So, Crim played the mirror on his three opponents, and none of them liked it.

@@TravisCloud-t6h This guy understood what I was saying.
I mean phil and tomer also both get hated out early too quite a bit.
Crim plays like a gigachad, if he is staxing someone he accepts it and repercussions that brings
I think it's telling that in zero politics week Crim dies first twice.
Also I love the deck Phil build, I have to play that myself. That looked like fun.
Crim definitely said words, and I understood about 10% of them this week. lol
This first game proves that either Richard is truly Muad'dib and can see the future, or that the crew truly just wants to hand him the game because everyone is afraid of killing the codfather lol.
Seth’s lack of LotR movie knowledge after seeing the movies is staggering.
It's a Goblin!
@@MTGGoldfishCommander He is as much goblin as panharmonicon is a radio.
All you really need to know is that the ghost people come in and save the day.
“Domain expansion? I thought that was a modern deck?...” -Seth probably better known as Saffron Olive 2024
Crim flashing those yu-gi-oh cards hit me like a truck of ptsd from 15 years ago😂
42:20 what a beautiful sight. Crim out of the game first. Richard with weird dune proxies, Seth with an upside down Sokenzan next to a right way up Sulfurous spring next to an upside down command tower as Phil says. "I can finally draw cards again 😍" as he literally kisses his card. Commander clash is the best
Poor Phil, so many missed authority of consuls triggers
Richard's Elesh Norn shut down the Authority triggers.
@@mxzedvI was wondering if it did
That Dune themed deck was crazy as hell- too fun!
Gollum is not a goblin. He is a Stoor, one of the three kinds of Hobbits. He is also twisted by the One Ring unnaturally extending his life far beyond what it should be (much like how the Ring-Wraiths were once Men)
thank you, i came to say the same thing.
Sounds like a goblin to me
@@burningpapersun1 no, goblins in Middle-Earth are orcs that come from the Misty Mountain, so they are the decedents of the Elves that were captured by Morgoth and tortured and twisted into the original orcs.
"is gollum a goblin"
*lotr nerd screaming intensifies*
Phil kissing his card after Crim’s stax were gone is such a sweet view. Ggs.
lets gooooo best commander channel on yt
Anyone says anything
Everyone else: THAT'S POLITICS!
Richard missed that elesh norn enters tapped because of the authority of consuls. Maybe seth would have lived but not too sure.
He put it into play at instant speed with chord of calling at Seth's end step
Zero politics, but politics topic is brought up every turn LOL
Phil missed so much life gain from authority xD
Elesh norn
Im just waiting for the day to watch a video and crim has a full beard lol
44:05 seth I recognize that ancient copper dragon from your unboxing video xD
Seth shuffling, tapping mana, and upside down lands hurt my ocd
8:12 “My hand is kind of doo-doo.” That’s what happens when your deck is filled with bad cards. 😂
On this week of "Punt or Bluff?" pure anarchy! Will Richard produce harmony among the sands or will Seth just burn it all down? Tune-in to find out!
Satoru the infiltrator looks so much like Todo in the showcase art
Richard's winrate this season its just insane
I love Mandate of Peace. It catches so many people off guard
I can’t believe Richard played a dune deck like 2 weeks after I made mine, dune sweep baby
The best commander show
Loving Crim's Geto & Gojo commander. I made JJK alters for a bunch of my commanders as well!
I wonder if Richard will read the Dune books and see how he feels when Paul's son becomes a psychic human sandworm hybrid emperor who marries his sister. Shit gets wild.
Wow. I knew that Dune had some things, but geez.
22:29 The atomics of House Atreides hitting the Shield Wall
Those games were off the hook. I frickin love no politics. It stop ganging up, copiloting and coaching which is really frustrating. Play your deck as intended, respond at your own will- this was fair magic and fun as hell to watch😊
The amount of Authority of the consuls triggers Phil missed is crazy. lol
Richard's Elesh Norn prevented the Authority from triggering.
No politics seems difficult
Only hard if you can't handle your opponents
@@ThePlayer4our or you're Crim, kept trying to deflect every time he did something that someone wanted to deal with. and would you look at the result Crim dies first when he can't deflect every card he plays and card he draws as "i just have lands" while holding counterspells, removal, and wincons.
Correction the Chancellor gives you the Goblin on the first upkeep not your first upkeep.
Of course Richard would cut a deal on no politics week
Why did Phil's dragon make treasures if Richard prevented its damage?
I think he had two from both the fairy artisans
my favorite part was seth saying "okay, domain expansion"
Good stuff. Love the show
Correct me if I'm wrong, but when Crim plays Breach the Multiverse, couldn't Phil have done something along this line:
Crim: Plays Breach, gets Notion Thief plus three other creatures.

Love Richard’s deck so much. LISAN AL GAIB!!!
0:24 Ironic to play the Dune deck in the zero politics game lmao
If I was Seth. I wouldn’t have cast the DARKNESS, just to not help Richard
They are playing "try not to choke and give the game to Richard" and are failing every single time
The moment Seth said "I'll kill Crim and Phill" I knew Richard had won
Richard's Dune deck playing a SNOW creature is a serious flavor fail.
Crim trying not to politic: "It's not politics of I state it as a fact"
Pretty sure Authority of the Consuls would have Phil at a much higher life total, given all of those Sand Warriors.
I feel like its almost objectively right to just kill phil every game from the outset. He plays all gas and no removal.
Council of four only triggers for the player who's turn it is. If you have the Council and draw your second card on an opponent's turn it wont trigger.
I need to see Richards deck list, for Reasons.
Would love to see a proper clash on from the group one of these days.
Objective: Failed Catastrophically
YOOO RICHARD PLAYING MY FAVORITE COMMANDER LETS GO
Oh dang i have new hazezon cards to add now
Noticed Phil missed the decayed zombie triggers a few times unless Void Winnower turns those off?
Pretty sure he missed getting a bunch of dragons from crim too
47:27 does Elesh turn off opponents authority of the council?
Crimmm I gotta know. What rarity is your Baby Dragon? I think given that the text is glowing its either the Ultra Rare or the Secret but it's hard to tell from camera distance.
Crim saying Domain Expansion instead of clash on is gold
Gollum isn't a goblin, it's a kithkin
Phil's deck seems great, can I find the decklist anywhere?
Seth's Azusa proxy/token/playmats when?
Goro goro and satoru is my favorite deck I built :)
"thats a COOL commander..." LOL
Hi ! Does anyone has Richard's list for dune deck ?
They are always in the article in the description www.mtggoldfish.com/articles/commander-but-with-zero-politics-commander-clash-s16-e18
How silly of Seth to think Gollum is a goblin, he's clearly a dwarf.

31:27 Richard calls out the upside down mountain, no one notices the upside down swamp right next to it.
50:38 Since I first saw the art for Endless Sands I’ve seen it as Paul walking into the desert at the end of Dune Messiah.
I need those dune token now. WHERE CAN I FIND THEM.
Phil can't help but politic against himself 🙄
Can we get the images of Crim's proxies?
Richard is on a magic card. Look at Jiang Yanggu.
Phil missed 2 token triggers? Decayed zombie and dragon?
Amazing Gollumblin token
33:08 Phil missed his Komposthaufen triggers edit: nevermind 😂
Elish Norn shouldn’t have been able to attack, entered tapped from authority also she didn’t have haste 46:23, also at 50:41 Phil would have gained 24 life
Who knew that Phil would be just as bad as not politiking as he is at politiking1
Finally, someone's taking politics out of games
😋
45:36 ❤❤ hazezon is fine. YUMA is better with CATACLYSM.
The issue is Crim stole all of the various stax pieces out of everyone elses decks and focused all the hate on him. Void winnower by itself by itself plus the notion thief pissed off people who needed the extra cards to deal with the void winnower. All that theft but no real pay off
No politics and Phil wins. He seems to usually die first because everyone politics against him. Lol.
Is there a way to get a hold of your guy's rule zero bannings?
They are at the end of every article linked in the description of every episode.
Best episode in some time. The lack of discussing every single play and quick gameplay was extremely refreshing
Tomer would have been too OP on the no politicking episode.
