Vampires Of Innistrad: CRIMSON VOW | Magic: The Gathering 

If you liked the video, and want to support the channel, please consider sharing the video on social media! ❤️

"Great blood comes from happy cattle. Happy cattle live in Stormkirk castle."

Looking forward to all the houses going at it during Olivia's wedding.

The Vampire: the Masquerade vibes are too strong to ignore. Also, the Brujah-ha reference was on point.

Honestly I love these videos and I listen to them on long car rides, so the longer the better.

I can’t handle this season. It’s so incredibly exciting. I forgot about the twelve bloodlines - I’d be interested to see maybe a couple return, and maybe some grotesque downfall stories not unlike Falkenrath. Which, speaking of Falkenrath, it would be fantastic to see their attempt to return to greatness fail miserably again. A story of depravity and endless striving and failing by a delusional and self-aggrandizing nobility would be a one I would drink up. On the other hand, taking Sorin’s temperature, and Olivia’s movements, I’m getting big Hamlet vibes with this upcoming season. I have high hopes that he may take one more shocking stand for the salvation of the plane and kill Edgar, not only thwarting Olivia’s schemes and getting his revenge for her betrayal of him, but also accomplishing final revenge against Edgar for his abuse and corruption, specifically of Sorin himself.

So Wizards recognized that 1 set per setting was a Bad call and makes it harder to tell stories through the cards

This was epic! Thanks to everyone involved in putting this together.

Didn't disappoint. Thank you, mate. I'm stoked for this set. Nervous about which existing legendary character MARO suggested would return but as a vampire this time.

Excellent video as always! You really helped me get excited again about the lore and Magic in general!

Really hoping Olivia ends up as a plainswalker and gets more story 🙏

Absolutely great of a video! 😊 I personally didn’t know there use to be 12 vampire houses so it would be nice to learn about what happened to those others and if they survived or are making a resurgence during CV. Some of the already teased legendary vamps seem to point to something happening that I can’t wait to see as we go forward and if the stain glass mural of the wedding is a good indication, it’s a plan that will have some serious consequences if it does happen.

Let's remember nihiri went to innastrad summoned emrakul and warped markov manor and killed all within because of a misunderstanding, and at no point is she shocked at the fact zendikar is still alive and kicking she murdered thousands, started a coup that lead to an angel falling from grace and potetially destroy a plane and what does she do when she sees it was all for nothing.... she shrugs like mother in law screaming at you for forgetting that all important dried ginger she NEEDS only to find it in the bag she was already looking in a minute later

Aether Hub. Your very unique take on Magic the Gathering and the lore makes me fall in love with the game more and more. I love your content and have been a long time subscriber. Ever since you made the Halloween stories back in the day, the lore on each planeswalker was what lure me to your channel. Keep up the great work. I always look forward to when there is a new set of magic the gathering cards I know there will be more stories you will bring to keep my drive to work very entertaining. Thanks man.

Here we go! Stoked to see this one

Great job and video!! Love the lore!

This was great keep em coming ! Much love and respext

Thanks for the video. I love the summaries.

This is awesome! Very detailed. Nice work.

Keep up the good work!!! Your videos keep me entertained while I work!!!

I loved this topic discussing innistrad's vamps

I'm actually more interested in hearing about this god of the sea. If done right it could be something really good. We don't really hear abou their being gods on Innistrad like we do on other planes. So I'm wondering if it is a real god or not ? Or does it have to do with the creature on the card called the thing in the ice ? Either way i hope they do something with this so called God of the seas.

Vampires are my,favorite tribe in MTG. I began the game at the first inistrad and always look forward to going home to it,

Another top-notch vídeo you have by far the best mtg lore videos on RU-vid

Olivia's most recent card art from CV has her silhouette in the shape of Emrakul it's right there I swear

First love your videos watching them and learning the lore of the cards or just hearing the story of the set is awesome. Was hoping you could do a video on umbris , fear manifest. I'd like learn about him

Very excited for the lore in this set.

Love this it's similar to the RuneScape vampire storyline that came out ten years ago but this is so good

Nice to know that the Voldarens have joyous balls...

Great video thanks I'll never stop watching keep doing a great job 👍

Great video my dude!

11:40 "A single man, the sire of all vampires:" Lucius Malf... oh wait

Fantastic, subscribed.

I love this plane so much ☺️ and how eldritch horror is all over it too!

Perfect timing, just got home from work

Maybe Innistrad’s fog wall actually has the remaining bloodlines on the other side.

Thanks for the video! 👍

If i’m gonna join one of these Vampire Houses, it would be Stromkirk.

DUDE THIS IS WHAT I NEEDED!!!! HOLY CRAP THANK YOU!!!!!!! no joke!

Thanks for the hard work!

About pronunciation of “Anje”… Are you sure it’s like that? Innistrad vampires look like Bram Stoker west european style of vampires, so I would guess it should sound more slavic like names in Witcher… Love your content 🙂

Yup Runo Stromkirk got spoiled as a card for Crimson vow

This was S tier quality :)

Great job!

I can't wait to see how the new Maurer clan and their progenitor fit into the innistrad lore

As an Anje Falkenrath EDH player, I had to learn how to pronounce her name correctly. In real life, it would probably be "Awn-yah," pronouncing the J like a Y. However, a Wizards dev on twitter who's name I can't remember (the guy wearing a newsboy cap in his pfp) said it's actually pronounced like "Ain-yee." Go figure.

watching before the premier starts :)

Top tier content!

Quality content, as usual. :)

I wish we could get more info on the Stromkirks

Is that Kharazhan music I hear? Very fitting!

I was very disappointed about the whole Sorin v Nahiri plotline, as I found it very dumb and forced in parts. but what was most jarring is that WotC just didn't give a flying fuck about it and never properly told their story and what's going on. we got a single card during War of the Spark about the two, showing that they fought each other again during the war whilst the other planeswalkers fought Bolas, but that's it. then we somehow jump directly to Nahiri back on Zendikar doing stuff and absolutely no conclusion to her previous feud against Sorin - and nobody seemingly cares about her bringing the goddamn Eldrazi to Innistrad, basically being the catalyst to a plane-wide genocide. and now with Midnight Hunt, we are back on Innistrad and the one single glimpse we get of Sorin is that of a completely different vampire. he seemingly doesn't care about Nahiri anymore, he doesn't care about Innistrad anymore and he doesn't care about what Olivia is doing? what? I get that him having to unmake Avacyn hit close to home, plus Nahiri pulling her bullshit, but this sudden shift in character doesn't fit at all. especially considering that when Nahiri trapped Sorin in stone (before WotS) Olivia took the Parasyte Blade from him, but during WotS he has it back AND it was confirmed that Sorin took the sword back from Olivia. so apparently he didn't feel that defeated to just let her have her way. so why does he let her now? the whole Midnight Hunt part with Sorin felt very forced and uncharacteristic of him. I can let is slide a bit, since he is "grieving" over Avacyn, sure, but it just doesn't feel like Sorin to me. also Arlinn somehow being able to stand up to Sorin's fury? she got hit by the Parasyte Blade too, so she should just drop dead at the spot given the sword's properties, but obviously that's not gonna happen and is just lazy writing. so far I'm pretty disappointed again. I was really hoping that WotC would finally give us some solid conclusions for Sorin in some form and let him have a spotlight again, but it seems they dropped the ball again. there's still Crimson Vow, potentially giving Sorin a couple cool moments, but for some fucking reason we get more exposition of fucking Chandra who has no business on Innistrad altogether than we get of Sorin who is basically the poster-boy of the goddamn plane.

Amazing

thanks Aether Hub!

any chance on a video about Odric?

My man Runo, funding the arts and getting on with that Shadow over Innsmouth shit. Horrific, but better than slaughtering people in the street.

I loved this video so much! Although the word “glamour” has lost all meaning to me.

I know I'm posting a lot of comments, but I think this might pull Sorin into the gatewatch. My reasoning being that there's a monoblack opening with Liliana's absence

I'm ready for Snapcaster to flash the wedding.

My prediction thanks to a specific card that came out in the werewolf set is that they're bringing Avacyn back.

Gonna make a vampire deck !

30:40 Who is the artist? Is this artwork featured on a card?

This is good stuff.

If I am not wrong, the progenitor of the Falkenraths was Arnolf Falkenrath

I watch this video before Crimson Vow set premiere

24:33 ah yes micheal HEHE stormkirk

Although I do hope Sorin will have his revenge, I still am team Olivia ngl hahahah she my #1 since the startt

I will reward with a cup full of Elixir of Inmortality to one of you mortals, resourceful enough to give me enough information about the grim music pieces used in this exquisitely explained video about my...Family...

What about the vampire bloodline know as the Dusk Rose

I love this and I want to do that interview and talk all about this. This is just apex vampire lore production!

👏

Are you doing the side stories?

Nice Karazhan music, haha.

30:11 "such joyous balls"

What happened to Odric ? They turned him into a vampire.

Perfect timing lol buying edgar markov

I’m STILL dying to know !!! WHAT flight was Marcyz from !!!!?????? Or was she a whole other Legendary Angel with her own flight ? Could Marcyz been the one still alive in Children of the Namless??

Maybe the missing bloodlines are the friends we met along the way

Well. Your information is a little mixed up. The vampire families don’t dislike the falkenraths, they dislike the Stromkirks because of their seclusion and success in Nephalia. You never mentioned the physic abilities of the Markov line, instead attributed them to the Voldarens, who specialize in transformation magic.

House Falconrath FTW

Gitrog Monster reprint!! PLEASE!!!!!

To my knowledge we don't have an official pronounciation guide. So in lieu of that I've taken to pronounce Anje's name as "Ahn-Yeh". The alternatives "Ahn-Jee", "AhnJay", "Ann-Jee", "Ann-Jay" never quite sounded right in my ears.

Soooo... Sorin Markov is the Fish & Game for Vampires & Humans?

Is it pronounced "AAN-gee" or "AHN-ya" Falkenrath? I'm new and confused.

How did the other vampires find out that Sorin created Avacyn?

You skipped over Nahiri's first visit to Innistrad when she was trapped in the Helvault & went insane. Being trapped in a relic full of demons couldn't have been good for her mind & soul.

Vampyres!!! I hope vampires in crimson vow will do better then the werewolves of midnight hunt

Is Anje definitely pronounced an-GEE and not an-yeh like the name?

I want my flying spaghetti monster bbw

On-ya not on-gee lmaooo

Dominathi and maurer showed up

marriage to ur grandfather how silly but effective

Comment for the algorithm.

I have no idea what this is but it needs to be an hbo series

I'm kind of hoping this leads to the Emrakul destroying Innistrad, I like the setting, but the sealing kind of pointed out that when it returns Innistrad will welcome the destruction. So if this is the start of the spiraling down, to the point that oblivion is a better opinion than existence, it would so bittersweet

why do ppl keep saying nahiri beat sorin sorins aroggance was what cost him the battle

TBH Stromkirk's are scary-good for humans.

stromkirk was smart

"Soundly beaten" is a stretch

Olivia’s new art makes her look like Emrakul
