Oathbreaker | Commander VS | Magic: the Gathering Gameplay 

Zulaport only triggers on your own creatures, guys. Blood Artist triggers on all creatures but deals damage to target opponent

Reading cards explains them. Corey used one treasure to crack a food (then had two treasures left for next turn instead of one) and no one read zulaport cutthroat. The banter and interaction between you guys is great, but the basics have to be right too.

Oathbreaker, maybe more than any other casual format, really requires a playgroup that is on the same page about power level. It’s very fun when people build similarly powerful (or not powerful) decks, but it can become broken easily. My favorite personal deck I have is a Tezzeret agent of bolas with rise and shine, as a vehicle deck. Super casual, super fun.

zulaport only triggers on stevens creatures

For future reference if you Elk magus all non basics are still mountains because of layers

Signature spell can never go anywhere BUT the Command Zone and the stack.

Yep...really messed up that zulaport cutthroat trigger

No Decklists? Would be awesome to have them

My Oathbreaker deck years ago was Huatli, the Sun's Heart / Bar the Door infect

Magic's hottest new format in 2019.

Jeremy is playing my favorite card in the whole game

I like how Corey wanted to play okko and still have friends but little did he know that playing oko at all an means you already have friends

Really like this format and how it's anti-durdle while built around the durdliest card type.

Song of the Dryads doesn't prevent Flame Rift from being cast. If anything, it gets him closer to casting it again.

I've been waiting since Justin Parnell to watch you guys play this format............. ....Heck yes!

Oathbreaker has been super fun in my play group! loving it!

Reading the card explains the card.

I loved the game. for anyone that has preconceived notions about the formate, i highly suggest giving it a try. Most decks are easy to build (60 cards is less than 100) and it still leads to some interesting interactions. The big pull for the formate is its speed and the banning of fast mana for less feel bads

It would've been really funny had someone played Shorikai since it is the only legal non-planeswalker commander in the format

Well that was faster than I expected - TWSS

Corey’s last time playing Oko was in fact not Richmond. -Corey’s round 14 opponent from SCG Columbus 2020

Zulaport doesnt trigger on other people creature

I can't BELIEVE they bungled Zulaport and it mattered for both games! You can SEE Stephen leaning forward to "read" his own card. SMH

Oko'ing Magus of the Moon actually would not unlock your Lands, because layers :D

I believe to truely balance the game is that only sorcery spells should be your signature spell because planeswalkers can only activate their ablity at sorcery speed. Maybe magic will make enchantment type of card that adds loyalty abilities to any permanent

John what's your personal oathbreaker deck?

Hey - you guys should do a show of a commander and a signature battle - I bet there are some sweet combos!

Jeremy and Corey clearly need to start colluding.

Nice!

I don't think that's how zula does work but I also don't think that really affected how the game played out.

20:55 im confused here. How does Zulaport Cutthroat kill Jeremy and Jonathan, when it is only one trigger? Even if it was Blood Artist it was only 3 triggers. So how was 4 life lost? Do they not know how to read the cards or what?

I see Oko I'm pleased.

Probably no were near as strong, but Arlinn Kord leading Werewolves with Moon mist as my spell is what I'd play.

Like, comment, share, subscribe, binge, and ring in a new format

Finally!

I wonder if oathbreaker will end up like brawl

obligatory Cutthroat is only on creatures you control comment

This might be irrelevant but even if you Oko a magus of the moon all nonbasics are still mountains.

Incorrect ruling explained on the Oko and Magus interaction. Even if Oko turned Magus into an Elk all the non basics would still be mountains.

I just want a good bant GG to play both Oko and big Tef in the same deck 😢

I like it.

I see why Oathbreaker never took off... The game ends before it even starts.

Can Jon please do a Dandan episode!?!

I have won with mechanize production and dockside extortionist

ELK! ELK! ELK! ELK!

Fabled passage fetches for tapped basic land. Corey only sacreficed 1 treasure to pay for food 3 life. humm..

What Jake hodge said is my comment

this just looks like another super competitive broken type format :D fun to watch, don't think i will ever play it. (not big on the hyper competitive formats anymore, i like my casual)

Comment section is going to be crazy after the zulaport misplays.

Baby teferi and Emergency powers.. Smothering tithe or narset

Why are Jeremy’s decks always so bad. Also, why does he always flood his mana base

This format is dead Until it gets put on Arena. 😢

Another version is what we needed for sure /s

More oathbreaker please! Turn up the power level as well

Justin still out?

Ummm... read the cards maybe?

Yay! Showing zome representation to Oathbreaker!

The Zulaport mistake ruins this whole episode.

Stephen please please please just read your cards.

First?

Love you guys and your content. But really don't like that format

Tiny leaders was a better format oath breaker is to boring an just bad

People still play this?

Please for the 100th time - get rid of the background music, it's highly irritating to many of the viewers.

Man what a boring game people want commander games not this thing.

Still not a fan of telling the audience what the deck does at random times. A brief overview before the game starts is so much better imo

Never realized im the worst like John. Man, if only me and him could be removed....

Thumbs down for Oathbreaker, and thumbs down for stephen not reading his damn cards. This is also partially on everyone else for not reading other peoples cards. SCG has enough money to have another person just to make sure rules are being followed.

They need to ban some cards. Glad you all did not play the broken Planeswalker and spells and looks like no one played the broken turn 2. I draw all the cards you draw no cards.

Turning Johns oathbreaker into a land with the enchantment wouldn't stop him from casting his spell they follow the same rules as commander so while the card itself is still in play he still controls his "oathbreaker"

Commander Versus used to be my number one show. I'd rush to watch new videos. This time I watched the LRR Canlander and Commander videos and PleasantKenobi's Ragavan Historic Brawl video and then went to sleep, and looked into watching Game Knights before getting to this one. I don't really like PK, he's just informative and I dislike Josh Lee Kwai. Some of your fanbase has been complaining about the reduced quality and entertainment from this channel. I hope they are heeded. Along those lines, please, I'm begging you, get rid of that background music. Lol at Corey claiming to be a Commander player while still regularly needing staples explained to him, which I typed up before even watching the Fierce Guardianship misplay. Speaking of staples needing to be explained: Zulaport Cuthroat is here. Game 1 was interesting, but not fun to watch. I get that Oathbreaker is supposed to be much faster, but that's not what I, and, based on the comments, many others, come here for. Plus the rules issues ended the game much faster. Oathbreaker was an interesting diversion and I knew they would do it, but I'll be happy to go back to Commander. This is, I believe, the first time that the gang has not stuck to precedent to determine points. This means there's no chance of predicting how points work based on how they've worked in the past. Yet another reason to potentially drop the series. Edit: oh Lord, I tried to watch the Game Knights episode. :barf:

Mehhhhh

The rules misses on this show just get worse and worse. Zulaport triggers on wrong creatures, saying a cost increase effect alters a free spell. If a spell says without paying it's mana cost, cost increases don't work, you apply all relevant increases, then decreases, then alternate effects, so playing without paying would still work
