13:05:00 Plot twist(based on canon story; see MTG articles on official website). The PWs didn't actually have enough mana to channel and trap Emrakul in the Moon using the scroll, so Emrakul herself took over Tamiyo and boosted Tamiyo's power multiple-fold by giving her the Ulti, so that She could take a vacation in the Silver Moon. This caused Tamiyo to feel sick for days, and Jace to be terribly confused why Emmara allowed herself to be defeated. It appeared that Emrakul/Emmara felt that it was not yet the right time for Her to continue her dominance over the Multiverse, and also maybe She needed time to prepare to bring back Ulamog and Kozilek, to fix the stupid damage the PWs had done by killing them.
Yea, i think it's pretty obvious Ulamog and Kozolek arn't actually dead, because if fuckin Ugin and Bolas can just ignore death, I think the lovecraftian space horrors who also work as the Ur-Dragon's Janitors can re-grow their arms.
@@entothechesnautknight1762 oh they're super alive. Like the "hand in the water and we're the fish" analogy. "We" the fish, bites of the hand but the person is still very much alive. We just don't know because we only see the water
It may also be a matter of learning. Perhaps she knew if she was thought by all to be "imprisoned", she could continue to do as she pleased without need to fight at all. This is somewhat evident with cards like Ulvenwald Oddity // Ulvenwald Behemoth. The moon seems have an even more eerie influence upon the creatures of Innistrad nowadays..
I love how the only planeswalker who gives remotely a shit about Zendikar being completely ravage by the Eldrazi is Gideon, the only person who didn't fuck with Zendikar in the first place.
Tamiyo was actually going to nuke Innistrad with a scroll spell that does something like Akroma's Vengenace, a board wipe. Except Emrakul rewrote the scroll spell to send herself to the moon so she could wait in stasis until "the time is right for her return," except more cryptic. Tamiyo is spooked.
A minor correction: Chandra didn't kill Kozilek and Ulamog by setting the leylines on fire. Simple-minded she might be, but it was a little more complicated. They all had this mindmeld thing going on facilitated by Jace and Nissa; it's how they cooked up the leyline-reality-snare thing to begin with, right? Nissa, being an animist, or THE Animist, really(her magic centered around communicating with and being empowered by the Worldsouls of the planes she visits), essentially asks Zendikar to borrow its mana. ALL its mana. The entire plane. And acting like a conduit, she channels the volatile, wild magic of Zendikar into the body of Chandra, who uses the inhuman and extremely unstable pool of mana to blow the Eldrazi the fuck up. The Gatewatch literally casts Channel into Fireball, in something of a callback to old Magic. But if you want to reference the present cards, it would be Channel into Fall of the Titans. Which, in fact, almost kills Chandra and leaves her without functioning legs for a while.
@@torysaccount5753 Essentially, yeah. At least, for a numerical value high enough to kill a 10/10 and a 12/12 in one go. Chandra being in constant pain and crippled for a few weeks after the casting was probably a callback to mana burn being an old mechanic as well; whatever mana she channeled and didn't use burned her on its way out of her mana pool.
It's nice to have an accurate version what what happened between sorin and Nahiri out there in this kind of summery video. Really tired of people trying to justify Nahiri's Planar genocide, was nice to just Hear that Nahiri lured Emrakul to the plane for revenge for once, and you did it in a damn entertaining way to boot.
Sorin actually did help with the hedrons. They were supposed to need someone to make them (nahiri), and someone to cast soul/blood magic on them using ugins colorless magic as a catalyst that would allow the caster to affect the eldrazi's colorless forms and actually bind their essences to the plane. Pretty sure it was sorins at the time 2 or 3 thousand years of sangromancy.
In my head cannon, the phyrexiabs get tamiyo and think they could use emrakul for nefarious purposes. They get tamiyo to unseal the moon, emrakul is like, " this isn't part of the plan" and then obliterates the phyrexians. Basically, I just really want something to come of tamiyo being phyrexian
Fantastic video! However... there is one issue toward the end of the story. The Gatewatch didnt """Technically" send her into the moon. Most were too busy getting Mind Melted by Emrakul. Emrakul posessed Tamiyo, REWROTE ANCIENT MAGIC OF THE SCROLL SHE CARRIED, and locked herself in the moon till "Innistrad is ready." So yes it was them but Emrakul was the one pulling the strings and arranging it herself.
this is very cool content! in my opinion it would be better if you can slow the slide video a little maybe even 10%-15% would be perfect. as of now some of them are too fast and I had to pause multiple times to see.
That was so good. It's been a while since I've been able to play MTG, but I've always enjoyed reading the excerpts at the bottom of each card. Even as a kid. This was so exciting for me and at times funny. Thanks, keep it up.
Your MTG content and history lessons in 15 minutes are hysterical. I have never laughed harder. You are a hilarious guy. You earned this sub. I wish you many more to come.
alright you glorious man i have been debating reading the mtg story for a little bit now but after watching all your videos i need to. i know this would be better with context
I have no idea how accurate this video is...But was magic lore always this shit? Or did it become this way after the planeswalker cards? I'm totally disappointed in the eldrazi now though. Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn
Two things: Ulamog and Kozilek were killed by the channel fireball combo. Emrakul saw that Innistraad wasn't ready to be rebuilt because Ulamog and Kozilek hadn't processed it yet. (Emrakul is the creator of all things according to the Raven man.) Emrakul talked to jace about it, said she had gotten bored, effortlessly took over Tamiyo's mind, rewrote tamiyo's forbidden scroll to be a sealing spell and forced tamiyo to seal her in the moon (which is why her card from that set allows you to take another player's turn) because she wanted to wait until Innistraad was ready to be rebuilt.
i was SURE that tamiyo was mind controlled by emracool to "banish" Emracool into the moon through manipulating a spell she already had available in her satchel.
The banter ending with okay boomer and then just stick some rocks in a circle def had me laughing. I've been playing since 7th edition when I was a kid, and I used to read the fat pack books religiously but stopped around the akroma or timespiral books I think and fell off the lore and game. This video is like watching a train wreck like wtf is happening but can't stop watching with all the stuff I don't know. I've read as much as I can about the eldrazi tho and love it and just wanted to see a new video about them and not disappointed:)
Can we get like... One of these for mirrodin/phyrexia? I just discovered this channel n it's content, so idk if you do these anymore but uh... Figured I'd ask
1:13 No, no, that's how you pronounce "Æther", no reason for correction. Killing a function of the multiverse you don't know the full function of will surely haven o negative consequences whatsoever! Thanks for the video.
do spmething else. not as in "more", but as in "instead of this". You lost me at mispronouncing Ugin, then is skated downhill with the teen-movie curse-a-thon.
Alrighty, first AWESOME EDITING!!!! Second, WOW you are really great at passing info in a very fun and interesting way!!! CANT wait for more man, congrats

Hey would anyone know the song he puts on in the innistrad part? I can't get it out of my head now and its great.
Yeah the track is Adam Gubman - Tiny Caskets
Thank you! And please keep up the great work!
I've seen at lest 2 or 3 writeups of the zendikar/eldrazi storyline, but this is the moste detailed one yet. Good work
I love how the only planeswalker who gives remotely a shit about Zendikar being completely ravage by the Eldrazi is Gideon, the only person who didn't fuck with Zendikar in the first place.

Well now she's "dead" so I'm sure she doesn't care lmao
@@zombiecondie should be interesting to see what happens when phyrexians and eldrazi finally meet 😉
@@LoveStrangeDr they probably won't like each other. Tamiyo Compleated might try to kill emrakul while she's locked in the moon
I bet you pronounce "GIF" like "GIF" too, don't you; heathen? It's "Ooo-Ghin" not "You-Jin".
Say it to my face

So Chandra casts Fireball for X=infinite, because the plane gave her near infinite mana?

@@bangzell6885 so basically x => 25
lmao all of zendikar ain't shit compared to a few nyxy bois
So what you're saying is that Nissa asked Zendikar itself to lend her it's energy for a spirit bomb?

That's great, eldrazi are just cosmic earth worms & the gate watch may have just doomed the multiverse, who would have thought.
Wow, the editing and memes were immaculate through all 15 minutes. And I genuinely learned more about the story. Top notch video 👏
Fish: creates a cool recap of a storyline.
My mind for the rest of the day: M Y S T E R I O U S
Holy shit
Not only the infomation is nice, its also the graphics with all the cards from magic
Absolutly amazing

Rlly awesome vid. If i had a brain i would of learned something.
This is literally one of my hubby and my favorite videos! Hilarious and informative!
"Okay Boomer"
😂😂😂
Please make more of these!

Does anyone know the music from the shadows over innistrad bit of the video because it's actually amazing
Adam Gubman - Tiny Caskets :)
Thanks so much!
a cow is actually a perfect simile, as ruminants are seemingly necessary for keeping soil healthy for plants to grow on them

Thanks for the video.
3:05 Wait why? Does Nahiri have history with Ob Nixilis or does she just see a demon and assume he's a threat to Zendikar?
Why not playing highest volume Black Sabbath in the background for a more comprehensible video ?
do spmething else. not as in "more", but as in "instead of this". You lost me at mispronouncing Ugin, then is skated downhill with the teen-movie curse-a-thon.
Look if you're not going to bring up the fact that Anowon is a connoisseur of Kor breast milk cheese, why even mention Teeth of Akoum?
Wanted to like the channel but the fact that you feel the need to use vulgarity every few seconds turned me off. No thanks
And now the phyrexians have tamiyo to go unimprison emrakul if they feel like it
My reaction during the entire video: "...huh. Seems legit"
11:38 mysteriously blown the f*ck up
i like how nissa's racism is sorta just glossed over in retcons of her.
This deserves much more vews
13:04 im sooo sorry for this but.... nive voice crack
so we getting zombie eldrazi someday got it
What is the critical information song?
this guy watches darkmane
This is actually really rad bro 🥺
Holy shit that Ugin pronunciation 😖
Fuck that was convoluted
There really needs to be an "Entire Phyrexia Storyline in 15[-ish] minutes" explainer. ;) Lots to unpack there...
Get down on it! ;)
1:14 "Great... AETHERRRRRR!"
now where's my cookie that I probably won't even bother eating b/c it's fucking coconut.
the fact that you don't have thousands of subscribers should be a crime
7:03 ... Women ...
What's ujin?...
9:05
I read something where someone really enjoyed Teeth of Akoum. The reader didn't take it seriously though and laughed at Sorin trolling everyone.
I don’t know how I found this but it’s incredible lmao great vid
Holy shit, there's a Chaw meme in here. Brings me back.
2/3 of the eldrazi titans are in my deck + Ugin, and i didnt even know the story
Annnnnn ndr there back
The 3 of them, I guess the Eldrazi can't be killed.
This video is great, how come you are not getting more buzz about it?
Wait, how long of a break was there in this storyline?!
Underrated channel right here

I could watch these all day. Take a subscribe
Great storytelling this is awesome please do more videos like this!
Quality. Absolute quality.
Alrighty, first AWESOME EDITING!!!! Second, WOW you are really great at passing info in a very fun and interesting way!!! CANT wait for more man, congrats
This was very well done! I had no idea just how complex the story was.
Very well made, side note I thought embrcool😎 could escape whenever she wanted?
This is neither confirmed nor denied. But given her power, many people believe so, yes. Innistrad return next year will hopefully show sth about her
That was great I hope you do more!
Holy shit, that was amazing.
Language, geeze. Trying to show lore to kids and we get f bombs
This arc is literally about eldritch horrors, body horror, and existinal despair
Amazing stuff. Please keep doing this!
Truly epic video
So many wronf things and cringy joke. Bad
Kinda cringey video, can barely understand anything from the memes.
