Kamigawa Nicknames || TTC 399 

"What do you MEAN, you're AT SUSHI?!" absolutely got me XD

"You no see Grog" is from a D&D greentext story about an Orc with ridiculous bonuses to Intimidate. Stealthy by way of "they know better than to see Grog"

Hearing that your child is an absolute agent of chaos makes me extremely happy.

To answer your question, Graham, the Soup Store bit is from CODE MENT, a Code Geass parody/abridged series.

For those curious, the other time goblins were depicted wearing toads was on Mad Auntie from Lorwyn.

The MS-KMG-22 is just a made up model number I came with. MS = Mobile Suit KMG = Kamigawa 22 = it's 2022 I'm incredibly proud of Scavenging Mews.

“I have a lot of ideas. Sometimes, they get out.” -Kathleen

This 'I'm at soup' video Graham has led me to is the highlight of my day, second only to the nicknames video.

14:15 Sawsbuck is Pokémon… the SAWS actually stands for Summer, Autumn, Winter, Spring. It changes appearance with the seasons.

Jiraiya, before being referenced in Naruto, was the folkloric inspiration for Japan's "ninja riding a giant frog" trope. And, for the sake of my own ego, Inventive Iteration, Norika's AO3 account, and Rugged Highlands were mine. Thanks as always for doing these! Already preparing for New Capenna, because the hype train has a marked absence of brakes.

Instead of Sorry we missed you while you were out, Covert Technician is more like You missed us while we were in.

Might I suggest that Kathleen & Cameron pass a baton back and forth throughout these episodes so they never again worry about stepping on each other's toes by doing two in a row

Fun fact! Binturongs are viverrids, not mustelids and more closely related to cats than dogs. Viverrids are basically the feliform version of mustelids and they get confused pretty often.

Reminder: When we do the Streets of New Capenna nicknames episode, we HAVE to name the Ob Nixilus card, "Look, I think we should be pleased that I'm as good as I am." - Kathleen Devere, TTC Episode 399.

The child of Kathleen and Graham having the suffix "of Chaos" makes a hell of a lot of sense.

If anyone else is curious, Italian seems to be the language where the font for The Reality Chip typeline is the smallest. ("Creatura Artefatto Leggendaria - Medusa Equipaggiamento") Korean and Chinese didn't require any scaling whatsoever. This has been my comment for engagement.

This was the most Kathleen nicknames episode to date and I am HERE for it.

1:20:15 Don´t want to shatter your dreams of overcomplicated and long german words but jellyfish translates to just Qualle in german.

For what it's worth, 1800 numbers here only have six subsequent digits, so 1800-SPI-RIT would be entirely viable so long as it's in Australia.

"There's like 900 pokemon, how am I supposed to remembe pokemonr-" pause There's way more magic cards than that and y'all seem to remember them well enough. "- that I frankly don't care about." Ah, well, nvm, that's actually very relatable. I don't remember a large number of pokemon because I know I don't care about them either. Are they Torterra? No? Good luck, your memory space has been allotted to embarrassing memories that make it hard for me to fall asleep.

It feels weird when all the nicknames I submitted that I'm proudest of didn't win, but the ones I'm "meh"-est of _did._

Alternate suggestion for Ambitious Assault: "Amphibious Assault"

"I just want the world to burn." -- Kathleen deVere, to world, 2022 "I've got you, fam." -- 2022, to Kathleen deVere, 2022

huh. I got two in, but neither of them were ones I expected to actually get in. also, I mentioned IN the submission for it that I knew it wouldn't get picked, but I'll say it again here: Mechtitan Core is quite literally Shinken-Oh, the primary mech from SAMURAI Sentai Shinkenger. it's a giant robot samurai made out of mechs that fold up into origami shapes and one of them is a dragon. I'm actually more bummed I DIDN'T manage to win people over with stuff like: Biting-Palm Ninja being "He's just HANDING there.... MENACINGLY!!!" or Risona, Asari Commander's name being set to the Daytona USA theme. "RI-SOOOO-NAAAAAAA!!!!!!!"

mad auntie from lorwyn was the other wayne reynolds card, im glad that i have this magic tidbit that i can confuse my friends with.

Accidently clicked this when I was trying to open the task bar of my phone. Best misclick ever.

1:19:52 Looking at the different version of The Reality Chip - Im going to guess Italian or Japanese is the one to blame: Creatura Artefatto Leggendaria - Medusa Equipaggiamento 伝説のアーティファクト・クリーチャー - 装備品・クラゲ German is surprisingly shorter for once: Legendäre Artefaktkreatur - Ausrüstung, Qualle Legendary Artifact Creature - Equipment Jellyfish

I've been calling mirror shell crab "crab says no" since the ppr

Speaking of tanuki and binturong, I've learned some people are similarly surprised that coatimundi are real animals too. They're like thin, pointy raccoons.

The whole grey goo bit got me got. The implication of Cameron being a better explainer by just saying "Cameron" was hilarious.

"The right kind of koi will sell for thousands of dollars." "Between you and me, my friend, this Magikarp is a goldmine..."

For those curious the other Wayne Reynolds Goblin art with a frog on its head is "Mad Auntie" from Lorwyn

"I've been playing Elden Ring everything looks like a dog." How dare you slip that in Graham I nearly spat out my goddamn tea.

god Kathleen killed it this episode. well done all around

Fun fact: My grandparents and their respective siblings were identical twins that got married. Only one of them is alive today, but they were prettty locally famous.

50:45 in folklore, one of the reliable non-combat ways to defeat a kappa is to trick them into looking down or bowing.

I thought of "Isshan 'two heavens' jackson" this morning wondering when this episode would come out. dang....

56:35 - Kathleen uses Forbidden Technique to Drive Engagement

“We believe every card deserves a nickname.”

TAP CONCEDE CONCEDE

"Chaos." - Kathleen's dark legacy

You know it's gonna be a good video when Graham introduces Cameron and we get a "Huh?" Thank you for making that your schtick, Cameron.

Based on a quick gatherer search there are 15 birds without flying. 7 are black border, 1 is a test card, and the other 7 are silver border. And it's always a good sign when graham has trouble saying the nickname.

Specifically, you defeat a kappa by bowing to it. The kappa will bow back because honor and politeness, and the water in the head-bowl flows out. The kappa is then forced to submerge to refill the bowl, at which point you have an opportunity to escape.

In reference to the Kappa Tech-Wrecker, you both are overthinking it. How you beat a Kappa is that you bow to it. Kappa are very polite and will bow back to you... and then immediately spill the water from their bowl and have to retreat into the water.

In response to 8:02, there are currently 7 birds in (black border) MTG without flying. Of those, five very clearly communicate that the creature does not fly in the art and one is a literal chicken on the ground, so it's borderline. The only true offender is Whippoorwill from DRK, which is literally flying in the art, but that's 1994 MTG for you.

Cams “go be free vbrrrrrt” made me spit my lunch out

There are multiple 2/3 samurai, actually. There's another also in red, even.

I was literally binging the other nickname podcasts earlier today, this is exciting!

Kairi is fun. Play it, clone it, the clones die, and each one yeets most of a board. While getting your spells back to do it again.

Man the nicknames episodes will always be my favourite. Just so good

The suprise mechanic was a good one

The cover of 2nd edition Shadowrun is a Larry Elmore classic work. And the reference to 2nd edition Shadowrun is another reason why Cam is the best contributor on this show.

Yes finally, the best part of getting a new set

I went back and submitted Gardening // Greg in for careful cultivation a few minutes after Gardening with Greg, and I'm a little disappointed the nickname I actually like less won.

I actually got to submit nicknames for once, and I got a nickname in here! the Kami of Terrible Secrets knows ALL your search history, and you cannot hide anything from it.

Commenting for engagement, also you got me to make loud sounds and scare my cat a couple times.

Pretty sure Jin-Gitaxias is wearing hakama.

I'm sad I missed the Nicknames site go up because I wanted to suggest Simic Isekai Swallower for the Colossal Sky Turtle

I lose track of whose turn it is too, and when there's a silence, I sometimes worry that it was my turn and everybody's waiting on me.

1:20:19 I looked up the card in various languages, German actually has bigger text than English. Italian, Japanese, and Portuguese have the smallest

Thank you SO MUCH for the Code MENT reference Graham, never thought I'd hear a fellow, uniquely cultured weeb from LRR. Brings me joy.

After a visit from covert technician "oh no my refrigerator is running! I better go catch it!"

Ever want to consume a piece of content so bad you skip forward to the more content dense section and then realize you are not watching it in intended order and now you spoiled yourself and waste time and so you go back and now you resent yourself for being like this cause me too

Late to watch this, but it was amazing! I am all for Kathleen’s chaos

Rather than alternating and therefore risking losing track of whose turn it is, they should just agree that one of them does the cards with even collector numbers and one does those with odd collector numbers.

Did not count on falling down a Tanuki and Binturong hole when I started this video, today was a good day.

Ancestral Katana = Grandpa’s Butterknife.

My lyrics parody of Deja Vu for Greasefang that sadly disappeared from the site. (The actual nickname was good and deserved to win, but I still want to share this in the hopes it may amuse someone as much as I amused myself) Deja Vu! I've just seen this rat race before! High above the streets, and I know it's my time to crew 4, Parhellion two: it'll go down in history. Flying armoured beats! Plus you keep the two angels for free! Whoaa!

Hey love this so much. Just wanted to let you know that I don't think the Crimson Vow nickname episode was every posted to the channel.

Scoured Barrens got a snort-laugh out of me!

Oh, I'd forgotten we do these, it seems like it's been a while. Good set for it.

I'm sad that the "ROW ROW FIGHT THE POWAH" joke didn't get more love lmao Relatedly, Mechtitan Core is Gurren Lagann to me

37:06 Binturongs _are_ super cute! They're actually "viverrids", on the cat side of Carnivora, unlike mustelids which are on the dog side.

I want your deck to do the thing it does. Endlessly entertaining

"I have a lot of ideas.... sometimes they come out".

For those curious, the "at soup" (or "at sushi") bit is from Code Geass Abridged (which is very funny in general)

1:00 "This episode is not about how I did, which was 2:3" You lied to us Graham.

That code ment reference caught me off guard. My roomie and i still do that one every once in a while.

Okay I probably missed something, they've done Kamigawa: Neon Dynsasty nicknames before Crimson Vow nicknames?

Mad Auntie is the second frog headed Goblin card by Wayne Reynolds

Wow, this came quicker than expected.

Grahm, I got you on the soup store reference. Classic

37:00 fun fact: my school's mascot is a binturong! the cincinatti bearcats!

"When I was a young boy, my father took me into the city, to see a marching band" are the opening lyrics to Welcome to the Black Parade, by My Chemical Romance. An emo kid classic!

14:00 Sawsbuck is a Pokemon. It's a big deer with a tree for antlers that changes based on the season.

This had some real knee slappers

Dear world, please stop giving Kathleen her wish.

I love it. CHAOS!

5:42 the other card is Mad Auntie from lorwyn

Oh man, Flame Discharge could totally have been Crapshot 437 The Number One.

"What the world really needs right now is more comment sections" - Cam no!

I know Lorwyn had a lot of frogs, spider, lizards and other small animals on boggart heads. So probably there is where the other frog on goblin head is from.

Binturong also smell like Popcorn! They are related to Civets, and are the largest member of that family!

The Binturong is a Bear Cat and it smells like popcorn!

25:45 for a delightful story. ;; Definitely y'alls kiddo XD. 29:45, w.a.o.w. oof. that's good.

The Reality Chip has a shorter typeline in German, owed mostly to the fact that 'jellyfish' translates to 'Qualle' and the other words are about the same length

This might be due to the fact that I almost exclusively consume lrr podcasts, not the normal stuff, but holy crap I had no idea she was this wonderfully dark and savage

Katherine was an absolute riot this episode!

I probably would not have noticed that Kyodai is made up of hands, which seems extremely SMT-inspired.
