Episode 5 comin' at ya! We are so excited to play our inaugural game of Commander in our new recording space! We've moved from Jim's dining room to a room in the basement. On top of that, we've got new microphones! We are still getting used to editing multi-track audio, but we're hoping this is a big improvement over our previous episodes.

Yeaaah the Mox Diamond was my first draw there and my mind kinda melted as a result. Thankfully it doesn't end up mattering at all, so just swap it for the forest I discarded on turn 1 and it's all good :P - Bill

@sylvandata 5 лет назад

In addition to a minor comment on the obvious Dryad Arbor misplay, I feel that the game should have been played out even after Gitrog demonstrated that it could win. Players conceeding after a loop has been demonstrated is normally done to save time and fit more games in. However, in a video format, I feel that it is better for the viewing audience that players actually meet the conditions for losing as opposed to simply scooping. On top of that, I personally would have enjoyed seeing exactly how Gitrog won the game.

@TheSpikeFeeders 5 лет назад

I think this is a totally valid criticism, and it's one that came up in our Patreon-exclusive advance viewing last night. In the future we're going to either play out the win condition if it's practical, or describe the game actions that lead to the win where it's impractical (like with Gitrog loops). For this episode, here's Eliot's description of his winning line: docs.google.com/document/d/1Lk3Mqm2u57I1u-eJjJRrhpAHCdRUWu0mpPKxOwJapWs/edit?usp=sharing - Jim

@naomisalama430 5 лет назад

I, too, feel like this is a good idea.

@lexisanterre 5 лет назад

Yeah, the gitrog combo is rather complicated in execution, relying on a loop of triggers and responding to your own actions in a very specific order. For people who didn't read the doc above, a simple explaination is thus: He discards Dakmor Salvage, creating a draw from gitrog, then replaces it with the dredge from salvage, thus making an infinite self-mill loop. Then, whenever he mills a land card from his deck, he draws. Combine this with one of the old eldrazi - usually kozilek - or gaea's blessing, means that he can shuffle his graveyard into his deck at instant speed. Basically, the combo allows him to 'tutor' for any number of cards and play them any number of times, and can be done at instant speed. The most likely outlet would be playing dark ritual for infinite mana, then using any sort of black damage instant to win with that mana. I prefer Geth's verdict, but anything will do.

@letzgoterps 5 лет назад

@patrickheusser4378 5 лет назад

your channel is great! thanx for your work. my favorit line with the frog is, just for stylepoints (and the ability to search libraries): turn the infinie black mana into green with a twiligt mire crop rotation loop and use sunscorched desert to kill the table. lol

@TheTrinisphere 5 лет назад

Going to miss taking a peek into your living room and kitchen, but can definitely appreciate a dedicated recording space to reduce the hour+ setup/break-down sessions. Your show is improving hella fast and it is a huge inspiration! We just setup a dedicated space ourselves (which was also a much smaller & enclosed space) and switched to lapel mics which caused some reverb over the ol' Blue Yetis, so we invested in some noise cancelling foam that we just stapled to the walls. Keep up the great work! We also had the issue with the buzzing interference from the lapel mics, which we believe was due to cellphones near the belt receiver.

@TheSpikeFeeders 5 лет назад

I think that's probably our next step. We are filming episodes 8, 9, and 10 from Central Canada Comic Con so who even knows how that's going to work! - Jim

@isabelsprogis 5 лет назад

I love to watch Elliot trying to combo off. Just a reminder that it would be nice to show and explain the combos, I've shared this episode with some friends and they are new to cEDH so I had to explain why having the Dakmor on the grave meant you'd have won. Keep up the good work!

@TheSpikeFeeders 5 лет назад

We talked about that too after the episode went up, so Eliot wrote out a walk-through on his lines of play from that point on in the game, you can check it out here: docs.google.com/document/d/1Lk3Mqm2u57I1u-eJjJRrhpAHCdRUWu0mpPKxOwJapWs/ -Jan

@kennethlane7645 4 года назад

Small but remember Selvala triggers when any player puts a creature with highest power among creatures into play. So when Elliot played Gitrog he should've drawn a card as the prototypes power is only 5.

Ha! I actually got that playmat the day before we filmed this episode. Vancouver L2 Todd Bussey was in Winnipeg for our judge conference and brought it as a gift for me. Maybe for our next filming session I'll get a playmat with an image of this one on it, skewed at a different angle. It'll be like holding a mirror up to another mirror. - Jim

@merrowmania1366 5 лет назад

Great game! 2:54 - Dryad Arbor cannot tap. 7:33 - You actually do need to declare your target before naming a card. 10:38 - You should have floated mana in case you drew a cycling land. The only exception to this sequencing is when you fear Frog will be removed in response, causing you to waste the floating mana. I don't feel like going back and finding it, but Eliot should have begun the Loam trick as soon as possible. Unless he specifically was searching for protection, there was no reason not to do so.

@ImTroyFromCanada 5 лет назад

Mics are all overloading. Maybe it improves over the course of the video, but you really gotta watch your input gain. You can always bump the volume in your DAW, but you can never get rid of clipping once it's there.

Quick ruling on Predict. You have to declare target on cast, but don't name a card until the spells resolution. Same as Cabal Therapy and other similar cards.

@Magnivore519 5 лет назад

Even though 'choose a card name' comes before 'target player' on Predict, all targets must be chosen (if applicable) when the spell is put onto the stack before it resolves. How that should have gone is: Cast Predict targeting myself, pass priority, okay now that it's resolving I will choose a card name.

@mwillis86 5 лет назад

I would personally move the lapel mics further up. The voices are kind of muffled sounding. That being said I am currently loving the content.

@TheSpikeFeeders 5 лет назад

Thanks! After editing the video, I totally agree. I think if we move them closer and turn the gain down a little bit each player's mic won't pick up as much of the other players' voices. The next two episodes are going to be pretty similar to this one because we filmed them on the same day, but starting with E7 we should see another improvement in sound quality. - Jim

@philippzahn9895 5 лет назад

Hey guys great video. I do have a question about Gitrog. Eliot used the dredge from LFTL and hit 2-3 Lands with one dredge. Why do you only get one Gitrog draw triggers there and not 2-3?

@TheSpikeFeeders 5 лет назад

Good question! Gitrog is templated to say "whenever one or more land cards are put into your graveyard from anywhere, draw a card". Dredge puts all the land cards in your graveyard at once so you only get one instance of the trigger. If it was dredge 1 twice, he would have gotten two triggers. - Jim

@Magnivore519 5 лет назад

The static at the beginning is probably from a message or phone call coming in. Better equipment might mitigate that, though keeping phones away also does the trick.

@TheSpikeFeeders 5 лет назад

Unfortunately that's not an option at the moment. We are using our phones as the recording device, so the microphones have to be plugged into them. We've been able to get around it in future episodes by turning off mobile data while we are filming, but the issue affected episodes 5, 6, and 7. - Jim

@TheSpikeFeeders 4 года назад

Gitrog's ability only triggers once per instance of lands being put into the grave ("whenever one or more land cards..."). You only draw one card if you hit 1, 2 or 3 lands within the same dredge trigger.

@martintaylor570 5 лет назад

Loving the videos guys, but the mobile interference has definitely been an issue for more than a couple of videos. It might be worth leaving phones in another room during recording perhaps?

@TheSpikeFeeders 5 лет назад

We can't, unfortunately. To get rid of the echoes you hear in the first few episodes, we changed to lapel mics. Initially we tried USB lapel mics but found that my computer's USB ports couldn't handle the bandwidth of two webcams and four microphones all running at the same time. We changed to lapel mics with a 3.5mm headphone jack, but the only way we could make that work was to have everyone record the audio to their phones. All that being said, we filmed episodes 5, 6, and 7 on the same night before we realized that mobile interference would be an issue. We didn't go back and re-film anything because we figured it would be a waste of footage, but we've implemented some changes that improved things drastically for episode 8 and going forward. - Jim

@martintaylor570 5 лет назад

Thanks for the reply Jim! Yeah I totally understand the limits of this kind of thing, since my friends and I podcast and film ourselves. We've has some success recording on one laptop and filming on another but it does lead to a whole lot more editing on two separate recordings so it's not ideal. Good luck with getting it sorted though, loving the vids otherwise ;D
