Oh (Marvel) Snap! It's Ben Brode! ft. Najeela, Arcades, Ghired & Mathas | Elder Dragon Hijinks #29 

We're so stoked to have Ben Brode join us this week! What an incredibly cool guy he is! I hope you all love this episode as much as I do!

These days Brian Kibler is a legendary planeswalker named "Elder Kyle Hill Dragon."

So Kibler did the famed Jimmy Wong "Math is for blockers." Gods thats hilarious xD

It's so cool to hear Ben Brode laughs again...

This game was so fun. I love that Kibler became his own worse enemy. Lol.

I love Kyle Hill playing commander! His decks are always so inspiring and I love seeing crossovers from non-magic content creators like him!

Brian just decking himself was fantastic, the sheer joy and reaction at that moment was great.

Sick, I'm super excited to see Ben Brode and Kyle Hill duke it out!

Awesome! You got the Prof back on the show but a even better guest would of been Brian Kibler! Maybe one day when he isn't busy on the prof's channel he could make an appearance

Ben is so infectious with positivity. So happy to see this show grow and continue to spread laughs and good vibes.

Great game! Just a precision on master warcraft : you chose which creatures attack but not who they attack - the active player does that.

holy hell ben brode is such a joy to have at the table gotta have him back sometime!

Ben brought a level of energy to this game that makes me feel this is what Magic as a whole ought to be about.

That was the most fun to watch game you have had thus far, Olivia's deck just popped; Brian killing himself was a classic move we all have done.Ben was fun, please come back!

Every time Olivia and Kibler are vs Each other its just Gold Content

THE budget Kyle Hill?? Wow, what a tremendous honor this is.

This is incredible, great guests, thanks for making this - Kibler is such a goon I love him! (props for doing the big play and not taking an hour turn making the "optimal" play)

This was the best episode so far, I think. The overall mood of the table was just so awesome to see.

So cool to see The Kibs on two shows this week after watching Shuffle Up and Play! He's beginning to be a prolific as Olivia constantly appearing on every Commander show in existence. :P

This is a PRIME example of how to make combat fun in magic, really well played and well done game 😊

Keep getting guests outside the usual Magic sphere! I love the Shivams and the Kiblers and the Serges, but Ben is a new face that brings different energy to the videos, and it's great!

Ben is just an absolute delight to watch/listen to. Just brings the best kind of "goofing with friends around the table" energy

I love how Brian flew so close of the sun in this game.

This was a great episode, but the standout moment was Eilidh drawing her token on camera. That should be a new rule for drawn tokens, you have to draw them on camera!

Brian's Kyle Hill incident is so much better after watching Prof's most recent Shuffle Up and Play with Kyle Hill

At 35:00, Master Warcraft doesn't allow Ben to choose how the creatures attack. It only allows him to choose that they are attacking. It was a bit disappointing to see it used incorrectly because it had a big impact at that point. Was a great game to watch though!

Big fan of all these shenanigans and hijinks, all of the decks on this show feel like my favorite kind of magic!

It always takes me a couple days to finish an episode because I have a little one who requires all my time and attention, but I always make sure to watch all the way through! Love your channel and the guests you choose are top notch. Ben was hilarious and such a good sport. Great game! Amanda

So glad I found your channel thanks to Joey from EDHREC pointing it out. You always have such a great and entertaining atmosphere around the (virtual) table.

Lol some missed triggers per usual with these wild ladies. The banter is what makes this channel great imo. Big butts for the win.

Congrats Eilidh, so great to see you win this crazy game! I really enjoyed watching 😍

Another bonkers game everyone. Thanks for sharing. Always love Kibler going rediculous and then killing himself.

Can’t… resist… the ”technicaly”… Argh, I give up. Prairie Tream, turn 3, should have entered tapped. Phew, I feel so much better now. Also, great show! 😊

THIS! The very definition of "Hijinks", I enjoyed every turn! Cards I haven't seen, the personalities, and the ending...ALL WONDERFUL!!!😆🤣

35:20 Olivia: I just want you to know Brian, I'm not choosing any of this." In her head: "Doesn't mean I don't endorse it." lol

I have a Mathas, F(r)iend Seeker deck that I enjoy very much, so it's very heckin' cool to see Ben play one as well! I can't believe that you guys got that RU-vid science nerd dude, Kyle Hill! Not as awesome as having legendary MTG HoF'er and all around great guy, Brian Kibler on the show but we'll take it. 😉 One more thing, Olivia's "Fight Club" deck is very heckin' cool. I really dig it.

I love the bickering between Olivia and Ben. It gives me serotonin

Epic episode is epic! Wow. Elemental bond not having a “may” clause is brutal. For some reason I thought that garruks uprising was a “may” version but turns out it’s not! Green be like the limit to our power is simply the amount of cards in your deck. Lol ggs the angel trumpet sound bite for the missed trigger of it was amazing 🤩

I'm a simple man - I see Ghired, I hit Like! And also watch. Awesome game, as always.

Love Kibler and Ben, excited for the Christmas special with them!

Hey look, it's Kyle Hill!

I have to say, when I first got into Commander Game Knights was my number 1 show. Then I discovered Tabletop Jocks and that became number 1 cause they posted more regularly. Now though, even though I still love both those shows, Elder Dragon Hijinks is the GOAT. Regular, quality uploads. Great games, guests and hosts. Fantastic atmosphere and a vibe that always feels like a bunch of friends playing this amazing format. You folks are incredible. Thank you and keep up the phenomenal work.

I love that Kibbler always uses those same sleeves 🤣 Great tokens! Great game! Keep the content coming!

Excellent game, very cool decks! Olivia, I am pleased to see you rocking the superlative Breena, and my good man Grismold. Cards & plants for everyone!

Holy s***! Mr. Kibler nosedived into the sun! 🤣

Came across this channel recently when I seen CGB & Olivia in the same video . I was amazed how good this channel is , Ali & Olivia are such queens 👸🏼 ❤️ This episode was just amazing , the whole cast was great! Keep it up!

Love seeing more and more cool commander players. Remember to hit the things that make the dings and go follow the hosts and guests on all the social media

In honour of Brian killing himself, what's the most memorable way you've ever been hoist on your own petard in a commander game?

Olivia essentially built herself a pillowfort deck and sge claims repeatedly that "I'm no COWARD!!!" 😂

Wow, pretty cool you folks got science RU-vid guy Kyle Hill on this show! /reference

Great table, was a lot of fun to watch :)

Ben's face after being told about Pramikon though xDDD

Ben Brode just seems like such a fun guy to talk to and play games with. Nothing but chill vibes and jokes.

This was such a complicated and exciting game. I loved every person playing! I want to see a rematch!

I knew I liked this Ben guy hahahah Shout out A Tribe Called Quest!!!!! “…float like gravity, never had a cavity…” :) right there with you

What a hilarious, good time watch that was!!

Wow what a crazy game! So funny when kibler accidentally milled himself out. 😂 That was a crazy strong play tho.

Hey you have kyle hill on this episode! Love that guy. There was a episode with Kibler on the professors channel and i only wish Kibler could give your channel a try. As always love the videos!

I liked the video when Kibler played his infamous turn. 10/10 Popping off turn!

Oh wow! Hearthstone was a big part of my life for a long time. Very cool!

Man its so cool to see the Prof's Ghired deck. Would like to see more of Brian Kibler though!

Ben: most of my stories are about losing! Brian: * laughs in I can’t relate *

I'm pretty sure Master Warcraft doesn't work the way you guys think it does. It only states you choose which creatures attack, not who they are attacking.

Brian offing himself with Elemental Bond is such a pro gamer move 🤣

@EDHijinks: Hey, Alias, Olivia -- I actually caught a deck tech for Olivia's deck! Turns out, if you pair Angel's Trumpet with Mirri, Weatherlight Duelist, you essentially get Silent Arbiter. But the difference is, it only applies to the controller of Mirri, instead of how the Arbiter applies to all players -- basically, the other three players aren't limited to only one attacker/blocker per turn, as long as they attack each other, rather than Mirri's controller. Note: I'm not sure if Mirri is in Olivia's decklist, but I'll check to see if it is. I just thought it was a cool interaction that isn't Collective Restraint or Propaganda.

These are always a delight

Such a fun game to watch. Olivia's fort was no obstacle for master tactician Alias.

Such a great episode

After watching Shuffle Up and Play I'm beyond disappointed that The Kebs didn't talk like how The Prof was representing him 😂🤣😂🤣 Great episode 👏 👌

Glad to see some awesome guests and hopefully some underplayed Janky cards : D

I love all these decks. My latest version of my Kynaios and Tiro deck is basically an abomination of all these four decks, making tokens, large butts, and pillowfort

I fell in love with pregame story time. Always killin it

Game was fun and hilarious. Dying by doing combat to deck out! I'm in tears lmfao

I'm gonna steal that Ghired deck list and play the heck out of it!

Wow, I think this is the first time I've seen two Elder Dragons on the battlefield natural at the same time in a game of EDH.

Good game. I've never seen someone pillow fort with Najeela so hard. Brian didn't have to die though. Elemental bond is not a may ability but Myriad is.

this makes me so happy i just ordered my kardur doomscourge, im the emperor and you fight for my amusement deck lol

Amazing game, love me some Ben Brode. I miss him on Hearthstone vids. Last week you guys asked for some deck suggestions, since I watched that vid late I thought I'd drop one here: I'd like to see a colorless deck featured! Maybe a Kozilek, The Great Distortion deck? Even though it would lack a bit of interaction, it would feature a lot of artifacts, which would please Olivia :)

Judge!: Hey just so y'all know Primal Vigor is a symmetrical effect so everyone's counters and tokens would double not just Kibblers. I'm at like 57 mins in and a bunch of beneficial effects would have gone off to help the entire table. I know mostly cuz I run it as my group hug Doubling Season and it's INSANE

That Hate Mirage play was great! But then I saw Brian attacking with Myriad and Elemental Bond 🤣

When there is Ben Brode, i dont even need to see the game, just keep chatting its awesome xD

A very entertaining game! Ben is infectious!

Ben laugh is still as golden as the hearthstone days.

Ben Brode, how can a man exude such happiness. Wonderful!

58:22 Ben: "Everyone who's not Olivia gets the bounty. So everybody else gets to draw a card and gain two life." Alias would not actually gain the life (though she would draw the card), since she resolved Teferi's Protection before the bounty resolved.

So glad to see Ben on another mtg channel. Keep having him back please.

When Kibler said the stalkers might aiming for Alias I laugh so hard 🤣

Lady didn't take some damage and tap her creatures because they didn't attack from Angel's Trumpet.

Best episode, kibler killing himself, Olivia's deck what a madhouse, congrats aliasv

Proxies are cool and good in casual format

@Elder Dragon Hijinks: Hey, um...Alias? Came back to watch this episode, because it was....entertaining, with Brian decking himself and it coming down to you and Ben. Just wanted to let you know that at the end of the game, when you used Path to Exile on Ben's Windborn Muse, technically the removal spell, if cast at that time, would have fizzled, because Ben, having used Teferi's Protection, phased all of his creatures out. On Teferi's Protection, it says for phasing, "Treat those permanents as though they don't exist." In other words, you would have had to wait for Ben's next upkeep to cast the Path to Exile. I know it doesn't change the outcome at all, but I still thought you should know, because I want to see the "turn stuff sideways and hit stuff" player (a player after my own heart, by the way) improve as a player and win more games. Lol Regardless, this is one of my favorite episodes, so on the entertainment scale of 1 to 10, this is a 13. Very highly entertaining. Before I forget, thanks for all the Commander content you and Olivia make, because it never fails to make my Thursday better!

Hey it’s so cool that you had Kyle Hill on the show!

I hope everyone is using the coolest version of each card they own in their decks.

That turn 3 Prairie stream should have entered tapped 😊

*Counts cards* “Oh yeah I die” 😂

I LOVE PROXIES. More need to play them!

Brian: does the thing. Me: why are there 20 mins left.

Butts Tribal! And holy crap, Brian blowing himself up accidentally was spectacular!

Good as always! It never feels like y'all are doing webcam commander.

Woah woah woah woah!!!!!!! I used to play Hearthstone and would watch Brian...... then I saw the thumbnail and thought "he that guy looks familiar" Then I realized 8 watched a video with him with short hair on game knights....... the hearthstone content guy is a renowned MTG player?!?!?!??!??!?! I love this world sometimes
