@@Flayerthehatebound It's not the same as "if you vape, sell your vape", because magic is just a hobby card game for 99% of its players outside of addictions, so you'll just end up not being able to play the game lmao
When it comes to the two Mommy's being in play a good pseudo-rule that tends to help is "Cant always wins" E.g. You and your opponent both play abyssal persecutor, "You can't win the game and opponents can't lose the game." At that point you are stuck in a deadlock until one of them dies
I've been buying out the leftover set boosters of Phyrexia from my LGS and I have to agree, truly stellar art in this set. I've bought 20 of each full art Mana to use because I love the phyrexian language
Some mites, I stay up cashing in my bad luck Some mites, I call it a draw Some mites, I wish that my lips could build a deck Some mites, I wish they'd just fall off
Hell yeah on the Myst Teleport Soundfx. I was distracted and that sound came on and woke me out of what felt like a 20 year nap lol. I know whoever decided to put that in is going to be looking to see if anyone got that reference...well I appreciated it
I think all will be one was magics like magnum opus. The set they genuinely put the most effort into. Also the story they put the most into. Phyrexians are truly on top I must say.
40:38 Matt's Elish Norn still has -5/-5 from Drews earlier Phyresis Outbreak, so it would have died to the sentinel, not blocked it and killed it. It was a long turn so its pretty common for people to forget lingering turn effects like that.
When I see this set picked I had 2 thoughts: 1. Whoa awesome this is going to be awesome! 🥳🎉 2. With the amount of poison and toxic this will be one of the quickest box brawls ever 😂
ngl i love that they have someone in the back that probably doesnt play magic because the oil-raised foils could only be pulled from the compleat edition bundles lol. just a small thing that i noticed. loved the video overall
I also started playing MtG recently because i fell in love w the Phyrexians lol I bought a precon and 2 regular packs to get free shipping and got an Atraxa, Grand Unifier Showcase :D
38:50 the basillica shephard wouldnt have created the mites because of matt’s elesh norn. And if matt’s elelsh wasn’t there, there would be 4 mites because elesh norn comes in at the same time as basillica shephard
I remember doing a card opening few months back with a different box. 1 pack gave me Elesh Norn, Mother of Machines #1] and the following pack gave Elesh Norn, mother of machines #415. Spent $40 and got $83-$85 between 2 cards
I kinda like the idea that the last box battle they all will sub in actual professionals and that is how they determine the "best magic player of all time"
absolutely love this set. great rare lands, dope arts, and an all around great cast of cards. this was the first pre release i went to and i was the only person there who didnt make a poison deck and it was the most aids ive ever experienced in magic
Drew could have ended the game earlier by using Kaito's ability to target the venrated rotpriest, causing it's ability to trigger and adding more poison counters to the other players.
Super inconsequential but Drew overlooked Kaito's +1, it is SO good. Can't block or attack until your next turn. There was almost zero way, on board, he could lose when he board wiped.
Matt, after performing game actions in a completely linear fashion with no complicated "actually, before that happens, I'll do this" stack interactions: "I hate the stack"
like, basically, as a rule of thumb, if you want to just do everything in an entirely linear order, you can. It only gets complicated when you want it to, or when your opponents want to do something in response.
Razorverge Thicket enters the battlefield tapped unless you control two or fewer other lands. 1 (As it enters) is 2 or fewer. Charlie played the same land, right after him.
Oh Magic, this game I love and hate at the same time. Many things get missed but sometimes dont matter in the end. Matt's Elesh Norn should have been dead on the Phyresis Outbreack turn and Drew should have one more creature alive.
I dreamt I was in the group and got dumpstered by Charlie playing one piece while I was playing magic, how does one lose playing an entirely different game
another more afforable way to do this is split a play booster between 2 people. 4 people for 50-70 dollars each could make a deck for the night and add 18 boosters from the set to their collection. Collector boxes obviously will have a ton more powerlevel because of the 4-5 rare/mythics a pack, but you are talking almost 1k split between 4 ppl vs $200-300.
So I was curious and looked up poison counter rules, I just kept seeing that poison counters stay even if the player that inflicted them dies. Did they misplay or are the rules I found incorrect?
I was opening the 2024 Festival in a Box while watching this and I pulled an anime borderless confetti foil Rhystic Study from one of the collector packs in it
thank you to charlie for repping my personal magic experience, just absolutely not drawing a single swamp
I mean it's kinda his own fault for trying to force a 5 color deck in a set with very little mana fixing lol..
This channel keeps my addiction at bay so I can save my money for duskmourn. Thank you gents.
Literally same. Like you said the words I’ve been thinking over the past 3 weeks
Addiction is pretty easy to break if you sell your cards
@@Flayerthehatebound L take
@@Flayerthehatebound Lies. Sold my collection of cards and i completely regret the entire transaction, wasnt magic, but still was tragic.

Charlie: builds a 5-color deck
also Charlie: "Man I was color screwed all game"

underappreciated MVP
Phyrexia is one of my favourite sets, I’ve been waiting for this for soooo long and finally it’s here, I’m gonna have a good time watching this!
It is such a different experience when they are playing with your favorite cards.

38:00 after a nice discussion on ETBs not taking effect, proceeds to trigger an ETB with elesh still on matts field
He still fixed it.
Great content guys. I just get excited when I see new videos of box brawl come up!
Can't wait to see duskmourn. Going to a prerelease event tonight
I went to mine and got 3rd place, good luck!
same, so excited!
@@MetalGamely I got lucky and went to 3 this go around. Placed 2nd, 9th, & 4th respectively.
@@TeeKayBee Nice! hope you had fun.

For the ASMR video, nothing beats the sensual slap of raw, naked cards being slapped down hard on a big, firm table.
Matt hating on the stack when the interaction he just got talked through doesn't use the stack in any meaningful way - iconic!
When I see this set picked I had 2 thoughts:
1. Whoa awesome this is going to be awesome! 🥳🎉

"I tap, I sac, I hate the stack" lol
...
Commander ASMR with the rules + flavour text of cards being read too, would be sick! Bahaha.
28:25 Bro’s Phyrexian Accent is impeccable. PRAISE YAWGMOTH!!!
How happy chase was for some of these makes me understand why they subbed him in.
The MYST sound effect at 2:26 hit me right in the CORE MEMORY
ngl i love that they have someone in the back that probably doesnt play magic because the oil-raised foils could only be pulled from the compleat edition bundles lol. just a small thing that i noticed. loved the video overall
Charlie playing the most interestingly bad strat I’ve ever seen.
24:13 eyyyyy! My first commander!
I was hoping someone would pull him in this ep
I remember this set being my first set ever purchasing the collector box. Pulled my first chaser card being the full aet phyrexian foiled Sheoldred.
This and March of the machine are my standout sets of 2023
FINALLY THEY WILL EXPERIENCE THE GLORY OF PHYREXIA
_"I hate the stack"_
Hate is on the stack. Any responses?

Obviously this is too late but the raised oil slick foils can only be found in the compleat bundles.

Yeah, I don't understand anything about the game but it's fun seeing all of you playing it regardless. 😂😂
I remember for my birthday my brother got me a pack of this set, I then proceeded to unpack a step and compleat Sheoldred, the Apocalypse
the intro jumpscared me abit i didnt even have my drink and snacks yet
Who knew sensual card flipping was a thing, thanks Drew
Drew could have ended the game earlier by using Kaito's ability to target the venrated rotpriest, causing it's ability to trigger and adding more poison counters to the other players.
I love the card thwipping, very magic the gathering
Watching their upacking of this set reminds me of how I bought a collectors box of this and it whiffed incredibly hard. Big oof.
This went much further than they thought 😂
Strip, Shock, Sharpie, ASMR commander next please 😂
I freaking love Phyrexia, my all time fave set. I thought BloomBurrow would surpass it but can't. I love Toxic so much
The oil slick treatment is only available in the Compleat Bundle I believe.
The intro music slaps every god damn time.
the dj khaled on the card edit was fire
are these full 100 card decks or a little smaller?
Love this channel and look forward to these Box Brawls!
Super inconsequential but Drew overlooked Kaito's +1, it is SO good. Can't block or attack until your next turn. There was almost zero way, on board, he could lose when he board wiped.
You guys should add numbers to the episodes to make it easier to track in the future when you have a ton of episodes
When Drew attacked after the Phyresis Outbreak, Matt's Elish Norn still had -6/-6.
I’m expecting a random 10 minute video of Drew Making card sounds lol
I was hoping you guys were going to actually be toxic to each other as a joke but this is fine too. Could have easily been a 30 minute game tops.
Matt, after performing game actions in a completely linear fashion with no complicated "actually, before that happens, I'll do this" stack interactions: "I hate the stack"
like, basically, as a rule of thumb, if you want to just do everything in an entirely linear order, you can. It only gets complicated when you want it to, or when your opponents want to do something in response.
If I don't like Kibler's ASMR hand card shuffle I will not like anyone else's
Anyone else notice Matt’s first land was supposed to enter tapped?
Razorverge Thicket enters the battlefield tapped unless you control two or fewer other lands. 1 (As it enters) is 2 or fewer. Charlie played the same land, right after him.
Matt’s ellish norn should’ve been dead because when it blocked it had -/- counters from Drew’s spell and it would’ve died from the block.
Basically Mat if Charlie where to block the creature at 27:32 you can respond by sacking it to get the ability off.
Can not wait for Duskmourn box battle
love the intro
Poor Charlie looks like he's never having a good time lol
Chase bieng summoned like mahoraga😂
The asmr is valid asf 😂
Charlie scores a philosophical victory.
Rigged
love the channel!
That Junji Ito card is so sick 😮
It's so sad how Matt choosing to not block that one rat and taking an extra poison for no reason cost him the whole game.
Do yall sell the playmats or have a merch site?
Yo here for the vibes
Immaculate as always.
I just made an elesh norn mother of machines commander deck and it is so good
Lol whay was that nadu at the start 😂
I'm relatively new to the channel but I'd love see an Un sets commander game
Can't wait to see scars of mirrodin
Bro what are these pulls!!! You guys are very lucky!!
Oh Magic, this game I love and hate at the same time. Many things get missed but sometimes dont matter in the end. Matt's Elesh Norn should have been dead on the Phyresis Outbreack turn and Drew should have one more creature alive.
Get your bets in for next time: How many Jace the Mind Sculptors will they pull?
What app are they using to track health?
shoutouts to the og myst noise
Can we make it a rule that Drew cannot touch his hand unless it's his turn?
Gonna keep it real with you guys, when drew slow flicked his cards it make me physically anger
A) Angry. Sorry, Drew. Love everything else you do.
Any chance for some flesh and blood tcg on here. It’s what I am learning to play !!?
if matt full swung at drew, he could have tied with chase for 2nd
Yippie!
Are they playing multiple of the same card? so just a standard deck but with a commander?
These intros are awesome. Who makes them?
id love to have elesh norn mother of machines in my 5 color omnath deck
Worldwake is going to be interesting with only 145 cards 😂
Thanks Jessie
For ASMR, I absolutely love the hand shuffle of going through card to card.
how much are the skill check mats?
Most toxic till you meet me.
I dreamt I was in the group and got dumpstered by Charlie playing one piece while I was playing magic, how does one lose playing an entirely different game
matt's nutty pull gang where we at
another more afforable way to do this is split a play booster between 2 people. 4 people for 50-70 dollars each could make a deck for the night and add 18 boosters from the set to their collection.
