    30:20 There's a world of a difference between having an actual conversation with someone you're playing Magic with irl by choice and fulfilling the fantasy people who want to imagine some connection with a stranger on the internet when you're here to play a game and just happen to need an opponent. My life is also improved by non-verbal options when navigating society, so I support the choice not to engage with strangers.

  • @BDrumev001

    This mana base is whack. The fact that you CAN have "perfect colors" with all these fetch and pain lands does not offset the hp cost. Math doesn't add up.

    Sorry if there is an obvious answer to this question but isnt "Wooded Foothills" a Red/Green card so it would be illegal with a Red/White/Black commander?

    "not legal in commander, but is legal in Brawl" is a phrase that should not exist. Can't wait for WotC to have a ban list for Brawl that makes sense. Griselbrand, Paradox Engine, Golos and Prime Titan should remain banned, and they should add a whole bunch of other ones too, personally I think cards like Mana Drain, Nadu, Verdant Reju/Last March, and Emergent Ultimatum are good candidates. But they can't keep the ban list as is, the format is getting way too competitive.

    • @reverseded1780
      @reverseded1780 2 місяці тому +5

      Hard disagree. A huge reason why the commander rules committee babies the format so much is because they want to make it friendlier to new or more casual players. Arena’s matchmaking system lets the tryhards go against each other without curb stomping people who don’t want to play as competitively. If WotC changed Brawl’s banlist to exactly mirror Commander’s then Brawl would lose a lot of its appeal

    • @jcfeelsanxious
      @jcfeelsanxious 2 місяці тому +2

      Brawl is so much different of a format than commander. Most of the cards you listed have no reason to be banned (most not all ) because it's not a 4 player format it's a lot easier to be interactive and also there is less support for some of those cards on arena than on paper
