Look at the top 5 cards of your library face down... So you pick up 5 cards, carefully scrutinize the card backs, then put them back? No wonder, you are gonna lose the game if you do that. Someone is gonna kick you from the table on a strong suspicion of playing with marked cards.
It's way to op. It produces coloured manna, enters untapped, cycles and pings. Can you imagine the control decks if they had this card? Every control deck with blue would hold this up and if they don't use it just hit your face for 1. Not to mention that this is repeatable removal on a land
@@ComixMultiplication Shouldn't be colorless but atleast a blue, Shivan Gorge requires 2 and a red to ping each opponent for 1, imo should be 1 and a blue for pinging any target, especially with all the other upside the land already has
19:23 it does not require two legends to work. You can reequip to the same creature as long as the creature remains a valid target. The reason most people get confused is how popular lightning greaves is.
I'm not sure you can target the same creature it's currently on, you might be right though, but definitely not if it has shroud. There's honestly not that instances where it's useful to retarget the same creature, except like Nadu or Valiant (on different turns of course). There's not alot of 'if targeted by an ability' that this hasn't been a burning needing answers for me.
1:13:30 [Wihdform] I love how the flavour text just cuts off in mid sentence for a card that also just dies randomly mid sentence/ mid effect. It's like the creature spawns in and tries to say something and randomly and instantly dies before it could even finish speaking.
"target creature [...] fights target player's hand.": The creature takes one damage for each card in the player's hand, and the player randomly discards X cards where X is the creature's power.
Inkjent of the Court makes a copy of itself whenever you or a planeswalker an opponent controls is attacked... Then each time they all trigger, so you get exponentially more... It's like Scute Swarm but for attacks!
Of course you can know what card it is. You put it face down, but you can see what it is, otherwise you wouldn't know if it's a creature or not. This works exactly the same as manifest. And you can reveal any card at any time, it just doesn't normally have gameplay significance.
@@nikxneon6615the point here is the opponent knowing if you're telling the truth or not. rulewise you can't, but it's not a hard rule. I think even in the rules you can just call a judge to check the card or if it's casual there's nothing really to stop you from showing it.
The thing with 3 mana blue sweeper is that you don’t need to splash any other color. Basic lands are great against Wasteland and Blood Moon. Pitches to Force of Will too. And one mana cheaper is huge in fast formats like Legacy.
Vault 10D needs a combo card with an ability like "All cloaked cards are also a mountain. (It is still a creature.)". Edit: Oh wait, Ashura found a card that does something like that.
1:32:30 "look at the top five cards of your library face down" is definitely my favorie LOOK AT IT! so far. Forcing you to LOOK AT IT! on etb and punishing you for looking by losing the game is just the cherry on top. Look at 5 cards face down didn't need to get any funnier, but it did.
Nightblade trap can: Make your storm c go up by 2 Combo with Ral or Ransacked lab Trigger magecraft and prowess Trigger "when you Cast a noncreature" ...
1:23:40 Treasures are absolutely NOT going to the graveyard, no tokens do, they are immediately removed from the game, you don't even descend from them -.- And the card returns from both graveyard AND the battlefield as it doesn't say and the effect is active in both zones. The card is actually very fair and quite strong if read correctly.
Another aspect of it is if you are unable to finish a player off on turn one and your opponents find a a way to gain life you can always reset it back to one one any turn.
Inkjent is very balanced actually. You don't control when you get tokens (except attacking plainswalkers). So unless it's in an anthem/token deck or going up against Super Friends or ninjas, it can't do much on its own.
Hate AI so seeing them make some of the dumbest crap ever and being so predictable, it’s beautiful lol I hope wotc never does AI art for promos ever again
Seasing Lonebatist and Witch Cannon combo doesn't really work the way you want. You need to do it in the opposite order. So play Witch cannon, it has summoning sickness, then play Seasing Lonebatist on your second turn and use both.
Volrath’s Valor is better than Violent Outburst, which is banned. Easier mana cost and you can play it over and over again and pings for two. So many Rhinos :) Completely broken. And better color too.
18:29 you can re equip to the same card any number of times so long as you can pay the cost aka the card is broken 54:40 cloak, maniphest and so on are all realy weird so the ai card dosent work because it has to say "reveal and if its a land" otherwise it never triggers unless ashaya or something that makes it a land is in play because even if you cloak a land into pay its always treated as a 2/2 creature when it enters and since the ai card dosent speify when it checks where the card is a land it implys it checks on etb because youd have to maniphest a card first and you cant look at the card until after it enters technically i play a cloak maniphest deck and its a tracking hellscape the important part is you can look at the card but the land cloaked is always a 2/2 creature rules wise unless again ashia is in pla. the card basicly only works if ashaya is in play dont you love weird specal action nonsense
If Ashiya is in play you get stuck in a loop until you deck yourself too, because there is no "you may" on the cloak top card ability. It creates tokens and you cloak and you can't stop until your deck is gone
Unrelated to the video but how do I clean a signed playmat? I won a GP Montreal playmat signed by Nikachu in some contest he ran back around 2015. Also unrelated to this, is there any way to watch the ancient Nikachu Merfolk videos, and how is his burn player buddy from back in the day? Anyone got a foil ham sandwich?
I THINK you can wash most playmats with soap and water. But you should be careful to clean around the signature or it will likely fade away. I've unlisted all the old Merfolk videos, they will only be public on my NikachuPlaysMTG gameplay channel. My old buddy Andrew Day 2 Dryden still plays but he's retired from competitive Magic and only plays Commander though. If his life gets less busy, maybe he will come back.
59:15 The discussion about cloaked card being a creature card should have crossed the "chat 1 brain cell" spot... It is not a creature card. If it was, the condition on cloak "if it's a creature card" would be always true and you could flip over any card. Chat is just dumbo.
Referencing an AI card? Honestly I should ask a really high context AI to just design a set. Like, have it make a thousand cards designed to work with each other.
@@Breviparopus I am in the official MtG Discord channel, and they just confirmed that you can in fact re-equip something on the creature that is already equipped as long as it's a valid target... If the equipment in question gives Shroud or Protection from Artifacts, then it would not be a valid target...
Inkjent of the court is really legit ok. Sure, its good, but its not busted. They are only 1/1s and you cant win immediately with it. And your Opponent would first destroy it before attacking. Play a simple cut down and we are good with it.
Ojer melody would actually be a good dragon for my Tiamat commander deck. I do my effects on putting lots of dragons into play to do direct dmgs, multiply them and create treasures as they enter the battle field. I rarely attack with them except to create more mana to cast more dragons... so its cheap cost in a deck where I can put 20+ dragons in play in a turn would fit perfectly.
Why have a bingo card if you don't actually fill it out properly. Gethon Cish has no creature type, but that was not noted on card when card was discussed
On the Fearwulk thing, maybe "invents a new keyword, refuses to elaborate" should be on a future bingo.
I like the bingo. Gives purpose to the nonsensical cards that isn't them being a waste.
*Nezumi Angelfish*

At least it's not red green lol

I love the level of comedy meets knowledge on your videos
Fearwalk: this créature cant be blocked if your opponent control a créature with fear.
Yes! Exactly.
That'd be a cool ability if they still printed cards with fear on it.
Look at the top 5 cards of your library face down...
So you pick up 5 cards, carefully scrutinize the card backs, then put them back? No wonder, you are gonna lose the game if you do that. Someone is gonna kick you from the table on a strong suspicion of playing with marked cards.
The Bubbling Ancient is my favorite card.
You build a deck for the express purpose of sharting at a MTG tournament.
Witch Cannon actually looks like something that could be printed today.
It's way to op. It produces coloured manna, enters untapped, cycles and pings. Can you imagine the control decks if they had this card? Every control deck with blue would hold this up and if they don't use it just hit your face for 1. Not to mention that this is repeatable removal on a land
@@Breviparopus It's also not legendary, meaning mulitples..
Make it legendary and require 1 colorless and tap to ping for 1 and I think it may not be broken
@@ComixMultiplication Shouldn't be colorless but atleast a blue, Shivan Gorge requires 2 and a red to ping each opponent for 1, imo should be 1 and a blue for pinging any target, especially with all the other upside the land already has

"target creature [...] fights target player's hand.": The creature takes one damage for each card in the player's hand, and the player randomly discards X cards where X is the creature's power.
thats a nutty discard attack
I think Witch Cannon would be perfect (flavor wise) if it was "Sac a wizard, Tap: Deal 1 damage".
20:32 I imagine you shuffle your library, reveal the top card then put that into the graveyard
Reckon looks like a real card
Almost has to be a plant, it's too perfect.
I reckon it does
Gethon Cish is a sentence fragment. It has the trigger, but no payoff for the trigger.
Inkjent of the Court makes a copy of itself whenever you or a planeswalker an opponent controls is attacked... Then each time they all trigger, so you get exponentially more... It's like Scute Swarm but for attacks!
You can cloak non creature cards. Its just that there's no way to know if its a land so the second part if that card doesn't work.
Of course you can know what card it is. You put it face down, but you can see what it is, otherwise you wouldn't know if it's a creature or not. This works exactly the same as manifest. And you can reveal any card at any time, it just doesn't normally have gameplay significance.

Works in Alchemy.
it has to say "reveal" for it to work or ashaya works but its always a creature as it enters

I can't believe how many Ziber cards he passed by without checking off Zibers.
Ziber is very subjective!
@@NikachuMTGLive But there were cards you said Zibered that you didn't mark!
Vault 10D is good with Scouting Trek which lets you tutor any number of basic lands and put them on top of the library.
Nightblade trap can:
Make your storm c go up by 2
Combo with Ral or Ransacked lab
Trigger magecraft and prowess
Trigger "when you Cast a noncreature"
...
Assuming the text means "flashback 0"
1:36:35 XD I just can't
I like how the life drain and gain are different lol
1:31:07 this card made me laugh so hard I cried! Look at the top cards of your deck Face down? You lose the game??? It can be your commander???

you can use the land to save a player as well by bringing to 1
Another aspect of it is if you are unable to finish a player off on turn one and your opponents find a a way to gain life you can always reset it back to one one any turn.
That second ability is so crazy everyone's just ignoring it's an untapped land for any color as well
I think sharts was the AI trying to make a shorthand for enters the battlefield as.
I found Shrieking Contest's art somewhat disturbing, I didn't like looking at it.
Inkjent is very balanced actually. You don't control when you get tokens (except attacking plainswalkers). So unless it's in an anthem/token deck or going up against Super Friends or ninjas, it can't do much on its own.
Equip Nezumi Angelfish with Helm of the Host! Everyone's lands become Desert creatures for each of your turns!
Hypnoiseled King is Sheoldred's favorite!
For Seismic Horror, the X is determined at the time it goes on the stack...
Shrieking Contest works great for adding to the Storm count...
If a creature fights your hand can you block with creatures in your hand? What if you don't block? Does it damage you or damage your hand?
Inkjent is like a future sight/modern horizons scute swarm lol

Vault 10D works. he same way that morph works. If some cheats a morph card face up that is not a morph they lose to cheating.
Seasing Lonebatist and Witch Cannon combo doesn't really work the way you want. You need to do it in the opposite order. So play Witch cannon, it has summoning sickness, then play Seasing Lonebatist on your second turn and use both.
fighting the hand is impossible? I wish that was something my cat was aware of!
Is Ive Surprise immediately destroyed if an opponent has an effect making your creatures enter tapped?
Ghyrson Starn would LOVE Witch Cannon
i call stretch.
"play to lose" should NOT mean "garbage, that you shouldn't run"
Volrath’s Valor is better than Violent Outburst, which is banned. Easier mana cost and you can play it over and over again and pings for two. So many Rhinos :)
