Commander at Home #4 - Chulane vs Najeela vs Go-Shintai vs Miirym with Kyle Hill and Jacob Bertrand 

Fun fact: The term "cracked" originated with the deck "Eggs." When you would sacrifice the artifact to cantrip, you were "cracking the egg."

what I learned this episode: Brian and Olivia should dap up their guests every episode

Teaching Jacob about DMCA strikes and learning about dapping people up - a true cultural exchange that brings a tear to my eye

Magic Family!!! Dad, Mom, Son, and cool Uncle!!! Please make this a regular pod :) also I love how tilted everyone gets while Kibler is flicking his cards!!!!!!

Don’t know how you guys edited a second kibler in so seamlessly! Kudos for sure

Only a few episodes in and this show has emerged as my preferred commander channel. Love Kyle and Jacob as guests. This pod was electric

“Dap me up” is at LEAST 10+ years old. I love this show so much, in stitches every episode 😂

Watching Kyle get progressively more pressed by Jacob is giving me life.

Jacob is such a mess we must protect him and cherish him at all costs

Kyle’s robotic “you have 25 treasures” was the best accent on the show

I cannot express how much this is just a D&D party playing MTG together. Jacob is the musically spirited Bard, Kyle as the quick witted and sarcastic Rogue, Olivia as the no-nonsense Necromancer (because: obviously), and Brian as the group's "dad" fighter/paladin.

I love how Kibler just slams his deck down and Olivia goes and straightens it out for him EVER. TIME.

Fun fact, the OG instruction of MtG was to put your lands in front. It was part of the idea that the opponent's creatures had to first cross your lands. So in the early years of magic we all played with the lands in front.

Love the special effects that they put in this show to have two versions of Brian at the table. Confused at first but they really love Science Brian and Gamer Brian. Honestly just need a full show with four Brians playing against each other each with their own schtick. Loving this series and can't wait for another episode.

Jacob is hilarious, performer charisma I guess. And seeing a family together always warms my heart

Man this has to be the best crew so far. To play commander,ever, I mean. Also Jacob should be introduced as Brian and Olivia’s son, just officially. Name tag and all.

Here we have a Kibler Twins duking it out to show who is the true Brian Kibler

Olivia casting IRL Teferi's protection with the hoodie was priceless 🤣

I was constantly worried that if Brian and Kyle made too much physical contact with one another, they'd merge together like the end of Time Cop! A great episode again, and now I kinda want someone to make a proxy of Riku of Two Reflections with Brian and Kyle lol.

"No, it's at least a 7" Came for the commander gameplay but stayed for the vibes and interactions. Y'all are awesome.

When Jacob said he liked dragons more than Brian I was fully expecting him to get exiled

"If you play with your lands in the front or you want to play a 5-player game, I'm out." Those words are now my mantra 😂

I can’t help but keep catching that person in the back with the phone 😂 still loving this episode so far! I love you guys! And I LOVE these guest. Kyle and Jacob are amazing!

This intro is the best of all the youtube channels, its so wholesome and everyone having a blast

The intro looks like something I would love to be apart of on Friday nights 🎉🎉🎉 I wanna hear Kyle yell "I wasnt at pro tour Tokyo" 😆

It's so amazing they managed to get Brian Kibler and Brian Kibler on this episode

Brian was my second to last opponent at my first Grand Prix, I was X-1-0. I lost against him and my next opponent, I had no idea who Brian was. His card flicking was definitely intense 😂 I appreciate this guy so much. By far my favorite MTG pro ever. Thank you again for the advice my guy.

This is my new favorite commander show for sure. I've binged 3 episodes so far.

Olivia passes the fit check every week. Commander at home’s steez is increased 10 fold each episode.

I wish all my commander games were as chill and fun as those

I truly appreciate this series. Thank you for the great content. I see so many directions you can go with guests. Looking forward to seeing many more.

What sets this series apart from other commander videos is how funny is when guests make fun of kibler's shuffling

The four cascades are seperate triggers, so when you hit a card on one, you cast that spell and the resolve it, before resolve any of the other cascade triggers. It usually doesn't matter, but when you cast creatures you trigger Chulane which affects what's on top of your library, and the order of the cascaded spell can matter (like the primordial vs elesh norn).

Hands down the best commander show intro on the internet! I absolutely love this show!

Amazing content! I love how y'all keep the banter in without drowning out the actual game play :)

This pod is incredible. Every episode better than the last. I absolutely love this show!

Jacob is back!!! And you got Brian Kibler from Because Science! He's got such great hair. It was such a fun episode! As always, the table chemistry is great and it's fun laughing along with everyone at the jokes and quips. A couple mistakes with Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite (Mistakes that didn't really matter but I'm contractually obligated to point out because I'm a nerd.) Olivia's manifest would have died due to state-based actions and after Brian died to commander damage during the first strike step, Jacob's dragons would have gotten bigger again, dealing more damage to Kyle and making more treasures.

Loved this episode! For next time, apex devastator does not resolve like it was showed. The first cascade trigger must resolve first before cascading into the second one. So Force would be decided and bottomed first, then cascade into wake, that gets cast, etc etc until Norn is the last to be cast off of the 4th cascade.

My absolute favorite new commander content. Everyone brings the good vibes each and every week and I’m always looking forward to the newest episode. Thank you for all the effort put into making this channel and content.

My favorite commander channel and the best intro. 🥰 Thank you! ❤

Commander at Home is without the possibility of debate the best EDH gameplay content on the platform. Thank you all so much for bringing this to us.

This is top tier entertainment as far as commander shows go.

Great show! Thank you, guys!

Easily one of my favorite commander channels right now. Every vid is such a great watch.

I am now waiting for the episode of "commander at home the musical" with jacob bertrand and it just has kyle in the background shaking his head for about an hour :D In all seriousness great episode, loved every second of it and can't wait for the next one!

I LOOOVE THIS CHANEEEEEL!! Brian and Kyle look like brothers

Definitely one of the most natural feeling edh channel, the banter and the dialogue doesn't feel super forced like a lot of other channels. Really enjoyed all of the vids so far!

This episode was so satisfying to watch. Something about this specific table makes me very happy.

if Brian's magic career doesn't take off then he definitely has a future in asmr.

First hearing about your channel on "Tolarian Community College" and making the decision to check the channel out. I found myself being drawn to seeing who your guests are, what decks you are playing and looking forward to each new video you produce. I love the style, the casual feeling and interaction and the focus on balancing gameplay with personal reactions to plays. Both of you and your crew deserve an applause for your hard work! You all should be proud or what you have created! Well Done!

The sheer joy this series generates 👌 these are ideal pods for sure! Great content from home 🤘

This is probably my favourite edh show. It embodies the spirit of casual in person commander and I always love seeing a new episode up.

Jacob getting treated as a small kid and Brian and olivia treating him as a their child specifically is so true when you are 5+ years younger than all the others

Jacob's comment about lands up front made me think of people who tap their land to the left. It's just not natural. Edit: As a small point of note, Brian cannot resolve his effects at 29:22 in that order. Not sure it matters in the long run, but technically speaking, Chulane is on cast, not ETB, so it resolves first in all cases, before the wood elves actually hit the field and place their own trigger on the stack. It may have mattered if Oracle was still in play, because he changed the top card of his deck before drawing, but when you don't have a way of knowing what that card is beforehand, changing it effectively doesn't do anything, so I don't think the outcome was affected in any statistically measurable way. Just wanted to point it out because trigger orders tend to matter in general, and it's better to be in the habit of playing them correctly. Cascade triggers can be resolved before or after Chulane, player's choice, because they both trigger off the casting of the spell, but ETB effects always happen afterwards. I'm fairly certain Brian knows this already and it was just a misstep in the moment, but I thought it worth clarifying. On a similar note, it should be noted that all 4 cascades from apex predator resolve independently (the card even says as much, stating "multiple instances of cascade each trigger separately." Meaning that you find and cast the first spell, THEN draw from Chulane and play a land, before looking for the next cascade trigger. Finding all four spells before resolving any of the Chulane triggers is also technically incorrect play. It's casual format, so it's fine I'm sure (especially considering Kibler was still not in a commanding spot afterward), but just for anybody wondering about the technicalities of mtg (of which there are many, lol), that is the correct way to do things.

Volví hace poco a commander por mi sobrino y buscando videos los encontré y me encanta el ambiente que generan con sus invitados!!! Sigan así, son los mejores!!!!

One Kibler chose Philosophy the other Kibler chose science! But always a hoot to see Kyle Hill play he brings such creative decks with the right scale of power level to a pod and he does some insane value engines. Jacob showing off why Dragons being double-troubled is fantastic and why they can do such insane damage if not enough checks are brought against them. Kibler's Chulain deck I can see where it gets out of hand he was quickly racking up in ramp and value and it's a shame he didn't hit flyers to stop the dragon train from killing him. Olivia with the Reconnaissance tech man if she went off it probably would have been a one turn kill out of nowhere from her. And of course we got more good doggo energy! Seriously I love the table chatter that happens in this show, it really does feel like a casual game of magic which Commander is all about for me. Please continue releasing more episodes!

Anybody else notice the person in the background

What! An episode with Kyle Hill finally! and Jacob what an energy bunny! This is another great episode! 😊

Loved this episode! Cast and guests were amazing. Writing this while still in the introduction because I know a commander game with these four will be legendary.

I can't remember the last time I actually got excited to see a video pop up in my sub box. Love this channel.

This was great! Kyle's look of defeat is so wonderful.

Really liked that they brought THE Brian Kibler on the show this week. He and Jacob brought so much energy, Kibler was literally shaking.

I really love when Kyle and Jacob as guest. Brings so much energy and smiles. I really enjoy watching them with you two. Please keep bringing them back

This is rapidly becoming my favorite commander gameplay channel. Yall are a hoot!

I identify with Jacob's singing so much. I would be awful on a show like this haha

Now Jacob and "Brian Kyler" are some sweet guests!

Incredible POD! Would love to see more of this group.

Love the episodes guys! Already in the top of my commander shows ❤

Nicely handled and fun games. Edited just the right amount imo.

Kyle, Kibbler, and Olivia are probably the top 3 people I would want to play commander with if I could assemble a dream pod.

My new favorite Commander channel. Love it!

Every commander at home episode has made me laugh and want to play even MORE COMMANDER (which is shocking, cuz I play A LOT) Thank you for the laughs and content. I need to see more interactions between Jacob and Kyle

Jacob is hilarious and full of energy 😂

I've watched enough Commander at Home that Jacob being Olivia and Brian's son is just headcanon now.

Between brian and Olivia's wonderful channel , the profs channel and command zone I've found some of my favourite content ever. You are all so awesome!!! 🥰 the little doggy is so darn adorable too 🥰

One of the funnest games I've seen in a while, great job everyone!

Shouldn't you technically resolve the Cascade triggers one at a time, so you won't know all the cards and you can respond in between each reveal? This would have put the Elesh Norn into hand off the Chulane draw, then Solemn ETB trigger resolves and shuffles before doing the final cascade reveal.

I see Olivia playing magic, I click.

Really loving the show you two! Only started playing commander a couple years ago but I've been following Kibler since early Hearthstone. Keep it up y'all :)

Great episode as always! Keep up the great work! Kibler and Olivia are such great hosts!

So nice to see Kyle joining in on his twins' family's commander night!

You can see kyles beard get more and more grey with interacting with Jacob lol

Just found this channel, but have heard of most of you before (sorry Jacob!). Wish you all the best from Germany, keep your spirits up, love to watch you play! Stay healthy and cuddle your cute dog from me please!

I love all of this! Keep up the great work!!!!! You guys are awesome!

the vibes are immaculate

+1 to Kyle and Go Shintai, I vastly prefer deck builds like that over just grabbing the most powerful commander. An added deck building constraint for me was to have all cards other than non-basic lands have the word "Of" in the name. It works surprisingly well, and all the shrines have of in the name so it's only restricting the rest of the deck.

I freaking love this show everything from the intro to the credits is exactly the feeling I want in a game of commander. It's one of my favorites amongst the many great commander shows

this is so good to watch! everyone just being themselves and having fun

I dont even follow magic like that but if I see a new Commander At Home video I will click every time

Please note: each apex devastator cascade resolves completely first before you see the next card. It's the second time it's misplayed 😅

This is by far my favorite episode that you've done yet loved the ambiance of the whole game with the dad and mom thing and the fact that Kyle Hill looks like a younger Brian. Keep up the awesome videos always looks like you guys are having a blast playing commander

Best episode so far. This quartet is vibing!

"It's at least a 7" Excellent execution Hill🤣

I finally figured out why I love this show, you guys capture the ENTIRE game not just the tabletop. This is my favorite Ep so far!

Love this show! So funny to watch and chill! Awesome vibes!

There is something just so comforting about the intro ❤

Why are there two Brian Kiblers?

I like, I comment, I back the Patreon, our dread bargain is fulfilled.

This was a good game. I love the friendly banter, these guys are great guests. Thanks guys for making these fun and enjoyable games ❤️

Intro is so bomb. Love tuning in every week!
