More Outlaws at Thunder Junction | Commander Clash S16 E14 

Only Richard could lose everything to a Ruination in a monocolored deck

Richard being salty after last podcast saying people should run ruination is priceless

It's cathartic to see someone playing only 5 basics in their mono colored deck get blown out so hard

"Felix is a Panharmonicon for dealing combat damage." So just HARMonicon.

Crim is the hero that gotham deserved today, finally punishing the abuse of the social contract. 5 swamps in mono black? Come on man 😂

Crim is showing the missing piece from Tomer's "more basics" arguement.

Crim expecting hate and getting praised here is hilarious. Richard ate it good this week, wish we saw more of Kellan, I wanna try building him.

So it's good cop, bad cop Good cop - Tomer "you should run more basics" Bad cop - Crim "you were told to run more basics"

Sorry Richard, but that blowout was entirely your own fault

Richard having no lands left after Ruination in a mono-black deck

Crim likes being the Heel of each Commander game, but tonight he has earned the medal for being Protagonist.

More ruination please

I like how the Discourse all week from Seth was "How can we punish ramp?" and Seth shows up, ramps like crazy, and then gets immediately punished. Props to Crim, that was hilarious.

Seeing Richard’s mono-color land base get completely annihilated by Ruination was so satisfying.

16:13 HE DID IT HE REALLY DID IT Tomer would be proud of you for maintaining the basic land agenda

This was the unannounced Ramp Decks week apparently. Love to see land destruction with a plan. With great power comes great humor!

31:25 Richard still trying to mentally recover from that ruination

The ruination was hecka cathartic

10/10 punish the ramp

How do the tri color decks have more basics after a ruination than the mono black deck, why is Richard running crypt ghast if he isn’t gonna play swamps?

It’s time the community rises up and says it loud and proud (land destruction is good for the format) 🗣️

Proof that land destruction doesn't make games go longer, if you build your deck around them. Good job Crim! Love to see the Pika-loot win

Just adding to the cascade of comments praising the Ruination play from Crim. Crim reminding the crew that running greedy mana bases comes with risks.

Crim slammed the door on this game.

This 3 player pod was a real change of pace I wonder what happened to Richard I swear I saw him in the intro

I'm all about Crim's enthusiasm for Loot

How to build a mono-black mana base: 1x Cabal Coffers 1x Cabal Stronghold 38x Snow-Covered Swamp

Love how you used omenpath journey, this shows its power with surveil lands and land destruction as well. Great game everyone!

We love you crim for playing Pikachu and LD!

Loot reminds me more of a Digimon more than a Pokémon lol

Go get it Crim! In your pod with all the cracked nonbasics and rampant ramping you're playing you're SO justified in playing MLD. Do it again!

I support all of richards crazy takes, but him getting dumpstered was pretty hilarious. Also these comments all hailing crim as the hero are pretty great. Looks like LD back on the menu boys

Yes, the Ruination-Play was awesome. But the mana reduction from Doc Aurlock made such a huge impact, i couldn't keep up with how much mana Crim saved.

Hell yeah, Felix Five-Boots! Great character & card. Thanks for the video!

Such a satisfying Ruination. See it, yet? MLD has been gaslit out of the format by greedy players. Kaalia was at one point feared because the point was to establish a board presence and then to blow up other players' lands and thus their ability to respond. Green's "ability to rebuild" would be irrelevant, because the point would be to use your established board to smack the green player out of the game while they were stuck scrambling. It works this way in vintage-legacy as well. Tempo-aggro is wholly viable in non-CEDH if you actually affect the board prior to turn 5, and you make use of the zillions of counters, board protection, or death-trigger effects to deal with board wipes and apply continual pressure to greedy, all-in decks. The fog meta falls apart when you aren't relying wholesale on alpha strikes as your sole wincons, but you have to actually build the deck to apply pressure and interact. Even in CEDH, Winota and Edric and so-on show that if you build it properly, the strat can work (even if there the commanders do carry hard).

Ruination is based but sad because I’m 99% sure Seth and Richard will change nothing and complain😅

Crim all the love from the play more basics community!

Legend has it that Seth is still there counting the lands in his graveyard muttering "Crim... CRIMMMMMM"

Crim is my hero, ruination is awesome, absolutely loved this episode

I miss the longer games and the double game videos. But good game this week everyone.

Only 30 mins...turns out mtgo was the hero we needed this whole time...that and wraths.

We love you Crim for playing Pikachu and LD!

Greedy mana bases need to have a downside. Crim doing the lords work.

Comments got me so excited for Crim this game! Bringing quality gameplay!

Damn that was a sick pop off.

Ruination is a good start, but we need more! Blood Moon, Back to Basics, Price of Progress!! Make those Non-Basic mana bases suffer!!! If you want fancy lands, they come with a price! (Also has the bonus effect of making bounce lands good!)

I’m a dyed in the wool green player but god bless crim in his effort to normalize LD

I love the new format for videos being able to see the board state more clearly and all around feels more natural but i also miss the 1hr+ games that MTGO would give us. I work in a factory and i would actually put my ear buds in and listen to the old games like a podcast while i worked and i cant really do that with these cause they start and end so quick now. Either way i live the content and the channel keep up the good work guys!

So it was funny to see what happened in game. But I do wish that there had been a game two running back the decks cause no one else really did much of anything. Was looking forward to seeing Felix in action.

That is what you call a "Loot" crate.

Crim is channeling my inner spirit with the MLD.

Love and support for Crim. Ramp is ubiquitous and pushed, are we supposed to ignore it?

The best episode of the last 2 years. Nice decks, nice editing. I wish I could get another episode with these decks

Kinda crazy that Richard only has 5 basics in a MONO COLORED DECK. I get wanting utility lands but once he played og urborg I feel like he was just trying to make field of the dead work lol

We need Ruination in every clash until Richard learns his lesson.

We love you Crim for playing Pikachu and LD!!!

I could watch a lore video, but I'm just going to assume Vraska and Jace adopted (not) Pikachu.

I see Ruination, I feel happiness. Honestly, that was a great deck by Crim.

This was such a banger episode. MLD actually sped the game up which was very interesting to see.

Say what you want Crim is the ultimate proof and reason on why one should play more basics in a deck.

Crim, the people’s champion, especially in response to field of the dead

Petition to name Passionate Archaeologist Flint Dibble

I love seeing the Ruination out of a ramp deck. Living vicariously through Crim's ramp hate :D

absolutely beautiful, I hope the nonbasic mld continues

Loot is basically just another prosper if built right. And it would appear that crim built it right

I usually don’t build decks I see online but I’m definitely building Ruination/Blood Moon Loot

Love the LD and Pikachu deck, Crim!!! This was a great episode 😁😁

Pouring in critical love and support for Crim despite his incredibly cursed choice of commander

Crim: I'M PUNISHING THE RAMP DECKS *casts ruination* The Ramp Decks: *3 lands ahead after the spell resolves* Good job Crim, that'll show those green players.

Seth has never seen a panharmonicon he didn't like.

I definitely sent this game to people from my play group. What a fun episode. Was surprised to find myself so excited to see Ruination resolve 😂

JUDGE!! ^_^ @ 4:45 - Y'all were right about there not being Yavimaya, but Sakura-tribe is a basic only and Seth didn't have any basics. (also I realized today in a white deck, you can play a fetch turn 1 and 2, waiting to crack both on turn two and cast Brought Back to double ramp, and then do it again on turn 3 with Ewit/Skullwinder).

2:40 For 1 second just 1 second, I thought Crim was going to blow up Richard's single land. 😆

“What’s the actual text on Loot?” “I don’t know what Loot is.” *You can feel the eye roll.* “What’s the text on Magic Pikachu?”

That ruination was beautiful

a great game i hope we get more double/longer games though

What a hilarious game! Thanks guys. Love that Ruination.

I'm here to add on to the respect non-basics plan! the MLD with a plan, plan!

my therapist: MTGkachu isnt real he cant hurt you Crim: 😏

Richard got to watch one person play magic and watch two others slowly drown.

Who knew MODO errors and mis-clicks were the only thing stopping the tyranny of Crim from taking over Commander Clash? I mean, I think we all knew for the most part, but it's still pretty startling to watch.

Crim, the hero we needed

It's me in the youtube comments, pouring out love and support for Crim's Ruination

Thank you Crim for playing LD!!

Its crazy how dominante game Is when crim has mana 😬

Pulled loot today might have to look at that deck list

Absolute King move by Crim! Punish those rampers!

Ruination forever! I don't have a deck for it, but I need to build one. Screw nonbasics.

Great episode

Crim Ramping to LD Verbal Meme: “You were suppose to destroy the Sith not Join them!”

I swear, I havent started to watch the episode.... if Richard is playing Field of the Dead imma get mad... love ya

Does Kellan the Kid go around timing restrictions of the free spell you can cast with it?

Phil's deck is the exact same as my Kellan deck lfmao.

The fog and ruination meta is the one good thing in my life rn

Nice to see Crim playing Ruination. I want more Back to Basics and Ruinations to punish greedy manabases and force people to “play more honest.”

Ruination is exactly what that pod deserves lol they're so reliant on non-basic lands. Crim was such a villain this episode and I'm here for it! So much that I can actually forgive him for playing green!!!

WE LOVE YOU FOR PLAYING PIKACHU AND LD

we love you Crim!!!

Outlaws of Thunder Junction is definitely peak(achu) magic

Loot looks like a meme character, but he just sent the rest of the table home in a matchbox. This game was won just through the disparity in resource generation, and Crim having more cards at his disposal than anybody else at the table.
