I prefer it this way, I find it more fun to be discovering the decks with the rest of the table as opposed to knowing exactly what is gonna happen or what should have happened. You don't know what's in the deck of your opponent in a real game either way.
I like the production of the intro even though the pacing is a bit too quick. Thumbnail though...Adriano's designs were infinitely better than the clickbait-y poses
very cool production in the intro, I do miss the art by Adriano though. Also petition for Crim to say CLASH ON for the rest of the season for playing a stax control deck
No Control, No Stax, No Problem! Crim: Hold my beer, packs the necessary permission spells like Mana drain, Glen Elendra Archmage, Jwari Disruption. Oh and can't leave home without a couple of stax pieces like Windborn Muse and Magus of the Moat lol! I can't help but think Crim took advantage of the rule 0 conversation on this one
Crim saw the prompt of "Clash without Control No Stax Pieces " And assumed it was a mistake, interpeting it as "Clash without control? No, Stax pieces!" And just ran with it
Gotta say, I was looking forward to seeing these 4 back together but this was a really boring game. Crim ignored the weekly restriction and was immediately rewarded. The video may be 1.5 hours long, but the game ends ~36 min in.
It feels like Crim completely ignored the no stax, no control part of the episode. I mean he had a windborne muse, Glen Elendra and even a mana drain... and at least two other counterspells in hand. He was saying, that its not a control deck, but what would be diffferent it it was? I think not really much.. Also i miss the intro music 😥
Yea it leaves a bad taste because of the spirit of the theme being broke. I’m glad everyone else said it was just “his version” of the theme but still sucks to see
Hello. I just want to say that I have been a die-hard legacy player for years but thanks to you guys I have taken commander to the mercy and am enjoying it very much!Thanks !
On this week of "Punt or Bluff?" ONLY FUN ALLOWED! Will Seth's deck become good after rotation or will Richard's `legally distinct` tribe finally be able to prevail? Tune-in to find out!
New streamlined intro is nice. Also, it seems like the editing was a bit tighter in-game, skipping dead air. Appreciate the efforts to speed up the pace of the videos.
The intro music adds a TON to the beginning of the episode! It grabs your attention a whole lot more then the old one. I feel like there's gonna be better retention on episodes with the new intro! Hope so at least.
Wow, love the new intro! I’ll slightly miss the rambling banter from before, but I can always go to the podcast for that 😉 Seriously though, the faster, flashier intro is great and will probably help viewership 👍
I like these thumbnails more. I like the crew more than Adriano's art personally, and I also prefer seeing the actual commanders over the drawings since well over half the time I couldn't tell who the characters were.
Increased production value is great and I'm super happy for you guys. I'm gonna be the one guy who misses the intro battle music and title cards though. There's something kind of jarring about it not being there. I really like taking a brief moment to settle in and revel in the fact that it's Friday and the Clash is on. Also, he ALWAYS has it. Beautiful.
Love the new intro, but almost didn't even process that this was commander clash from the thumbnail! thought it was some other channel with a crim guest star until I looked at it again
I love the new intro although i enjoyed the introduction at the start of each new season and greeting the "new" crew members, also please bring back adrianos thumbnails :) but else very nicely done!
Holy wow, that intro is so great!!! Although i feel like the upbeat music started almost too suddenly, maybe still have the classic goldfish water dropping sound befor?
I hate to say it, but Tomer, my man, champion of the people and capital G Gamer, it was a misplay to play so heavily into a wrath against 3 people you *knew* would never adhere to the spirit of "no combo, no control" week. Everyone at the table was playing as if they expected a wrath because they all knew they'd be playing them anyways.
@@MTGGoldfish I'd love if you at some point tried banning fetches; to me they're clear design mistakes which is why they don't see (functional) reprints. To me, the biggest difference between your table and the ones I see IRL is that to you there seems to be almost no cost (in functionality) to playing multicolored decks. I think a ban on fetches would immediately restore that balance between "3+ colors: excess to more cards" and "1/2 colors: tempo and reliability".
Richard keeps saying they need to batch together "Kithkin, Halfling, and Hobbits", but there are never going to be any Hobbits. All the Hobbits in LTR have creature type Halfling already.
Happy Richard is back. Love the increased production quality but hate the new intro song being back smash theme with this quality. Bring back deck lists at end to please
Decklists: www.mtggoldfish.com/articles/no-combo-no-stax-no-control-commander-clash-s15e1
This new format was very nice. My only gripe was with the absence of the beautiful art in the thumbnail. I hope they will come back
Yeah it’s a shame to only see the thumbnail art for a second before the intro
They'll probably change the thumbnail at some point and then switch it back because that's what helps the algorithm.
Yeah, this is a kind of an every commander show ever thumbnail
The only thing I miss is getting to see the decklists in full,other than that it's excellent
Agreed! I liked pausing and searching tomer's deck for kaldra
You'll still see them at the end of the game!
I prefer it this way, I find it more fun to be discovering the decks with the rest of the table as opposed to knowing exactly what is gonna happen or what should have happened. You don't know what's in the deck of your opponent in a real game either way.
@@BlackMan890 Same. New format is excellent!
No control and no stax Crim - "And I took that personally!"
richards clash on was adorable im so happy he is back that must have felt good actually after being so busy with life for awhile
I would love so much to see "only combo, control, or Stax"
just watch playing with power
@@amisanthropicman Oops, all Stax! :D
excellent increase in the production value
For sure. But I also miss the old smash bros brawl style intro song
I love how there were three rules for this game and Crim broke two of them. LOL!
I miss the Adriano thumbnails, the decklists at the beginning of the game, the Smash music... But Richard is back, so we celebrate 🎉
See what the game devolves into when Phil isn't here. Rest in vacation, combo king.
too much honesty it just doesn't feel right
Crim being scared for no reason when he has the game locked. Happens every time.
It’s like hard to be in a better situation in a cmdr game and he’s always acting like nothings going his way
That's what happens when he doesn't play control.
*pretending to be scared
I like the production of the intro even though the pacing is a bit too quick. Thumbnail though...Adriano's designs were infinitely better than the clickbait-y poses
Idk those old thumbnails were fun with all the commanders.
very cool production in the intro, I do miss the art by Adriano though. Also petition for Crim to say CLASH ON for the rest of the season for playing a stax control deck
Amazing new intro. Faster, streamlined, and great quality! Love to see it!
What the hell is this intro, this intro is so energetic I didn't think I was actually watching commander clash! This is gonna be an interesting season
No Control, No Stax, No Problem! Crim: Hold my beer, packs the necessary permission spells like Mana drain, Glen Elendra Archmage, Jwari Disruption. Oh and can't leave home without a couple of stax pieces like Windborn Muse and Magus of the Moat lol! I can't help but think Crim took advantage of the rule 0 conversation on this one
He absolutely did which feels kinda BM of him
Followed by the gaslighting. It was frustrating to watch.
Yea crim wasn’t playing in the spirit of the theme.
Yea crim just feels like a punk b**ch
there's nothing more casual than arguing about what is and isn't control for 30 minutes
Crim: Is this Stax?
Tomer: Does it prevent me from winning?
lmao!!!
Tomer's face when magus of the moat came down xD
I'm so glad Richards back he brings so much fun energy to the table. I was cracking up.
Still hoping we get a Phil episode whenever he gets to guest! Glad to have Richard and Seth back, feels good to have them back
I know the trend on UA-cam is to have faces in the thumbnail but you guys already had the best thumbnails ever with Adriano's art
I love the new intro too! I gotta say, I’m a fan of guests but this cast is easily my favorite! So excited for this season
Love the new overlay!!! The episode looks beautiful!
Crim saw the prompt of
"Clash without Control
No Stax Pieces "
And assumed it was a mistake, interpeting it as
"Clash without control?
No, Stax pieces!" And just ran with it
Who wouldve thought the guy who plays stax and control beats out the other decks on no stax not control week
I do like the old smash music a bit more, but the production value being improved is nice, I especially like the skipping through discard phases.
Gotta say, I was looking forward to seeing these 4 back together but this was a really boring game. Crim ignored the weekly restriction and was immediately rewarded. The video may be 1.5 hours long, but the game ends ~36 min in.
love the new look and upgraded quality. you guys are killing it
"CLASH ON!" is genuinely my favorite part of the video. I'm in full support of it!
Also Phil is awesome but man it feels good to have the og cast back. Your banter is top notch when together
It feels like Crim completely ignored the no stax, no control part of the episode. I mean he had a windborne muse, Glen Elendra and even a mana drain... and at least two other counterspells in hand. He was saying, that its not a control deck, but what would be diffferent it it was? I think not really much.. Also i miss the intro music 😥
Yea it leaves a bad taste because of the spirit of the theme being broke. I’m glad everyone else said it was just “his version” of the theme but still sucks to see
Tommer- next game is no combo no combo no stax
Crim- hold my beer
At least Crim's control deck had a wincon this time!
Hello. I just want to say that I have been a die-hard legacy player for years but thanks to you guys I have taken commander to the mercy and am enjoying it very much!Thanks !
On this week of "Punt or Bluff?" ONLY FUN ALLOWED! Will Seth's deck become good after rotation or will Richard's `legally distinct` tribe finally be able to prevail? Tune-in to find out!
As soon as Phil isn't playing: "Phew okay guys, let's do no control week"
New streamlined intro is nice. Also, it seems like the editing was a bit tighter in-game, skipping dead air. Appreciate the efforts to speed up the pace of the videos.
Just watched the intro and it’s so hard to resist turning it off to mess with the “clash on!” viewership metric. Excited for the new season!
Glen Elendra plus magus of the moat feels very out of place in “No Stax No Control” week.
I was worried that we wouldn't get to see that beautiful beautiful Adriano art with the new thumbnails so I'm glad it's still around.
It's still there, it's just a part of the video now :)
The intro music adds a TON to the beginning of the episode! It grabs your attention a whole lot more then the old one. I feel like there's gonna be better retention on episodes with the new intro! Hope so at least.
I do wish it was a bit quieter, but I do like it
I like how quick we got into it. Very fun
Absolutely love the new format(tho we do need the decklists in the vid imo) You guys keep improving and its so awesome to see
They're still there during the outro for those that want to see them!
@Niuttuc H haha I shoulda watched the whole thing before commenting 😅
Dig the new intro!
Hope it wasn't just a one time parody of other commander shows :D
This new format to the video is awesome!!! I absolutely love it!!! CLASH ON!
Im glad the new old team is back. Commander Clash is meant to have you 4 guys.
I love the new format, fricking clean!
Love the new thumbnail and production quality!
I loved the streamlined intro! I will miss the Smash Bro's intros I thought those were a lot of fun but S+ on the updated production guys!
Did Nintendo finally catch on you were using Smash Brothers music for the intro lol
"hi my name is Crim and I'm playing a Crim deck. If you don't know what that means, you're about to find out!"
One of my friends has a Nethroi Hydra aristocrats deck that utilizes the fact that you can mutate it to get back as many 0/0s as you want.
Wow, love the new intro!
I’ll slightly miss the rambling banter from before, but I can always go to the podcast for that 😉
Seriously though, the faster, flashier intro is great and will probably help viewership 👍
I like these thumbnails more. I like the crew more than Adriano's art personally, and I also prefer seeing the actual commanders over the drawings since well over half the time I couldn't tell who the characters were.
Wow yall, the new intro is insane! Keep up the good work! Clash On!
Clash on!
Increased production value is great and I'm super happy for you guys. I'm gonna be the one guy who misses the intro battle music and title cards though. There's something kind of jarring about it not being there. I really like taking a brief moment to settle in and revel in the fact that it's Friday and the Clash is on.
Also, he ALWAYS has it. Beautiful.
Absolutely loving the new production value
Ok I was big sad - no Phil :( - but Richard is back so I’m psyched…
Also very impressed with the new intros!
Don't worry, Phil will still be around when people need a week off :)
@@MTGGoldfish ah sure I got ya - was just already missing my man from the podcast and I need my fix of value town of every week
1:08:57 I am confused was there something preventing Seth from blocking here?
"it would be so great, id get countered and die" tomer sounding hyperbolic but actually just correctly reading the board state. Comedy Gold.
Welcome back Richard, the king 👑
CLASH ON! Loved the energy of Tomer and Richard at the start :D
When Richard said, "Sound the trumpets," I thought Seth was gonna do the Militia Bugler/Bugler Rat jingle.
New intro and graphics are sick! 🎉 Clash on! 🎺
Welcome back, Richard! We've missed you things have gone unpunished around here for too long ;)
"Archetype of imagination = Winter orb" absolutely killed me xD this should have been an april 1st episode , so good
Love the new intro, but almost didn't even process that this was commander clash from the thumbnail! thought it was some other channel with a crim guest star until I looked at it again
I LOVE the new intro! Great job yall!
New Intro format is awesome
Crim playing REALLY loose with today's theme. :P
I miss the smash intro lol but I'll get used to this. Great production value!
@@edwarddavidson868 yeah I can see that. Still love the show!
Omg, the intro was real quality!
Super fresh intro, good stuff guys
Really interested to see how next weeks decks turn out, this week was a blast though!
I love the new intro although i enjoyed the introduction at the start of each new season and greeting the "new" crew members, also please bring back adrianos thumbnails :) but else very nicely done!
now I want to see outtakes for the intro too! or did you guys pull it off first take?
This time it was actually one take.
@@MTGGoldfish damn.. professionals at work.
also really fun episode. enjoyed Tomer going ham with his Ghalta deck :D
New season? New Intro?? Richard is back???
Perfection.
I love this new format!
Fellas, is it stax when board lock?
I love that new design of yours ❤
What a brilliant new start to a new season
LOVE the new style devk intros. It's so slick.
its so much more fun to watch with richard and not phil just alone cause the communication is fluid
Oh boy the ultimate sandbagger Richard is back
Holy wow, that intro is so great!!!
Although i feel like the upbeat music started almost too suddenly, maybe still have the classic goldfish water dropping sound befor?
all right im done i got my clash on for the day i go to sleep now thanks again guys for everything
I'm so happy Richard is back!
It is crazy how much impact that strip mine had in the game lol stopped tomer ghaltaring and the next turn stopped the beast sac spell
The intro is sweet!
Love the new intro guys!
"Why would you swing at me??" "Why would you blow up my stuff" cause you're my opponent lol
I love the production value, but make the intro a bit slower, and turn the music down a little, it made difficult to hear the cast.
Richard is easily my fave cast member. I love crim’s playstyle, but Richard brings so much entertainment value 😜
No Stax - Crim plays Stax, no control - Crim plays counter spells and effects.
I hate to say it, but Tomer, my man, champion of the people and capital G Gamer, it was a misplay to play so heavily into a wrath against 3 people you *knew* would never adhere to the spirit of "no combo, no control" week. Everyone at the table was playing as if they expected a wrath because they all knew they'd be playing them anyways.
Wait. Are wraths really control pieces? I assumed they just meant like counterspells.
Just started the video, do (or did) they talk about their new banlist for the season, at some point?
Same ban list as before (no Mana Crypt, Sol Ring, Mana Vault, Rhystic Study or Smothering TIthe).
@@MTGGoldfish I'd love if you at some point tried banning fetches; to me they're clear design mistakes which is why they don't see (functional) reprints.
