They knowingly roll up on a dragon with no game plan? 😮 Kiva justifies mouthing off to a dragon because she has a wisdom score of 8? 😂 If I were in the party, I might have attacked Kiva the second time she mouthed off to the dragon as a desperate act of self-preservation. 🎉
Well the reason it’s fair is because everything has a cost, pot of greed doesn’t. So say you brick and can’t start your combo without your starters that’s how it balances. But now think about the same situation but now you can have two free cards and then start a combo. Having two cards for free is way to strong
@bennally21 I actually disagree, for example the card bonfire in the snake eyes deck. Your whole hand is a brick but you have bonfire, that bonfire guarantees your entire end board if it goes off. It has no costs, just searches the exact card you need to do your entire play. It costs itself It gets a card It essentially goes even but you pick your draw. I would much rather a pot of greed where you have 4 bricks and pot of greed, it goes plus 1 sure but the two draws are random. There is no guarantee that your starter is the next two cards. Hell kashtira cards summon themselves add a card for free and them summon that card which searches. Power creep has made a plus 1 draw card meaningless.
@@kevinmccarrell2389 bro you gotta realize how powerful two free cards are. Everything in yugioh has a cost to be played. Even if the effect may benefit you with another card it still has a cost to play while pot of greed doesn’t have a cost to play and give you 2 cards for free and thins your deck. That’s really powerful especially in todays meta in where getting the cards you need is imprtant so why not play a card that gives you 2 cards and thins the deck that is super powerful and why it’s still banned
colorless mana symbol was introduced on the plane of zendikar in the set Oath of the Gatewatch... I get Mirrodin was the first "artifact focused" set but they didn't have a symbol for colorless mana until Oath, which is I believe so far is solely used by eldrazi spells in mandatory effects/casting costs.
This is really cool! I love seeing more Magic themed trivia shows! As some others have pointed out, some of the questions were worded poorly or confusingly, with the colorless mana symbol debacle being the biggest outlier due to the fact that there is a symbol that represents colorless mana. I think also providing an explanation for why the answer is correct can also help eliminate some of the confusion.
This was fun. Questions 2 could have been worded better and 4 didn't have the correct answer. The difficulty could be a bit harder. I think it would also be nice to see a rule related question at the higher difficulties.
Technically 4 did have a correct answer, as some people in the comments have pointed out. Mirrodin was the first set to feature artifacts with activated abilities that require colored mana, however in keeping with the colorless theme, the colored mana symbols were monochrome instead. Looking at the original Talisman cycle, like Talisman of Impulse, gives an example of this
This would be a correct answer if the question asked about colourless mana symbols. However, the question clearly asks about "the colourless mana symbol". This makes it very clear the question refers to the specific symbol that is used to indicate colourless mana and not any mana symbol that happens to not be colourless. If the question did refer to any mana symbol printed without colour, then the question itself is wrong. Sidenote, if Mirrodin is correct then so is New Phyrexia, considering they are the same plane. TLDR Either the is no right answer or the question itself is.
I don't desperately want to be the well actually guy but surely colorless mana is associated with the eldrazi and therefore Zendikar. It was introduced in battle for Zendikar after all? Apart from that really enjoying the content, well done
I have a number of issues with some of these questions. Like, for example, if I have no cards in my library to draw on my next turn; the correct answer would be "nothing happens" until either I draw a card, or it reaches my next draw step and I have to draw a card. Even if the question assumes my opponent is passing their turn to me (which isn't in the question) i may have the ability to respond in my upkeep. Also, how can Mirrodin be associated with the colourless mana symbol when that wasn't introduced until Oath of the Gatewatch? If anything Zendikar should be the answer seeing as it's the only plane to actually use Wastes. Also, I take issue with Mirrodin and New Phyrexia being different answers. Just because they renamed it, doesn't mean it's not the same plane
Yeah, very poorly worded questions in some instances. I'm also "triggered" by how some questions/answers were written down (Random capitalisation, poor grammar)
@@equipecaobonito the mana symbols not being printed in colour is different to the colourless mana symbol. The colourless mana symbol was introduced in Oath of the Gatewatch.
Roar of the Kha doesn't have the colourless mana symbol on it. It has the white mana symbol. Please check cards like "Wastes" to find the colourless mana symbol.
If you're trying to tell me that "the colourless mana symbol" is *not* in fact being used to mean "the symbol for colourless mana" but is instead being used to mean "the symbols for coloured mana being unusually printed without colour," the the question is even stupider than the original objection implies. Why would you even use the definite article "*THE* colourless mana symbol" instead of saying something like "uncoloured mana symbols" or something?
I can only laugh the irony of players, saying that silvery barbs is the most broken spell in the game. When it made zero difference - venomfang still hit him, and he died.
I’m about 1/2 way through. Jeez this is rough. My first thought was, “play stupid games, win stupid prizes,” but then it seemed like that moment was pre-planned between the DM and the player to showcase the draconic transformation. However, that didn’t make it any better in my opinion. I hate heavy-handed bs like that from DM’s. And now I’m listening to the Magic identification scene … more heavy handed bs… (if I was a player, I would’ve taken the cloak because it was so obvious the DM wanted him to take the Tesseract. If you can’t tell your story without the players cooperating by making the choices you want them to make, you need to rewrite your story.) Otherwise I’ve been greatly enjoying the campaign 🥰
