"Goes together like penut butter and ladies", dev is a poet💜

[Grootzrootz]

I love how you hear Dev’s lyricism come out while talking. You are amazing!

“my take from the bottom of my heart, is that I do not care. I take a look at the text at the bottom of a magic card and and I’m like ’is that good or not?’” too real

First time watcher, and definitely subscribing. You are hilarious, very knowledgeable on MTG, and have a pleasant voice IMO. I am in love with the Foundations set, it has sparked my love for Magic, after years of barely playing, im back in full swing because of this set <3

That tuxedo cat at the beginning is hella cute.

I appreciate that you are not heavy on the jargon and MTG terminology. I and I imagine many others are new to the game with this set and the explanations of things is very nice

I think the actual spike argument against koma is more:
"Because of the ward 4, the cleanest way to answer koma is typically going to be a sweeper. The tokens don't give any friction to this, as they will also get eaten by the sweeper. So, that part of the ability largely won't matter, as your ability to win with your giant dude remains about the same. Largely Koma will see play or not see play based on if playing a giant french vanilla creature is viable, and most standard formats say 'no' to that being the case. Not impossible for it to happen, but not likely. If they added can't be countered and ward 4 to gigantosaurus, would it see play? Same answer for Koma."

I loved your content for a long time. I usually hit the like button in the mid-part or ending part of your videos. This time, I see cats in the beginning, it's an automatic like. No questions asked! Haha.

In a draft today on Arena, I was passed "Raise the Past" on the fourth pick. Scratched my head and took it

[Hawkeye]

I bought two bonus boxes, as well as the starter collection for Foundations. Ended up building out 3 entire decks with it in combination with a few choice singles, AND upgraded my imperium deck to boot. This set is DAMN GOOD.

[adrizen]

Can't wait to see what kind of Aristocrats decks you come up with out of this new set. I love 'em

[exxtrahumr]

Loving this content fr! So much value every single video and you make 45 minutes go so so quick. Strictly better content creator

[hahahafunniness]

It's a set that focuses on Magic the IP, not just magic the game system. That's why people are so into it, whether they want to admit it to themselves or not.

[JeremyDeere]

Your opinions are the perfect mix of kitchen table spice & competitive nom nom.

[facundosilva]

Om the day of the presentation I opened the new niv mizzet, twin flame Tyrant, rite of the dragon caller, bolt wave, high fae trickster, and other interesting U/R cards... Gonna brew a new commander deck with those

[nuclearbirds]

I’m so happy to see Valkyrie’s Call on this list. I played an Orzhov reanimator deck at my prerelease draft and won two matches 2-0, in no small part due to that card. The fact that it lets you block with impunity, then everything comes back WITH FLYING and +1/+1 can REALLY turn a situation around.

[chriswampler]

Dev. Not sure if you read these but a card that I have found is surprisingly good when abused the right way is Imprison in the Moon. I managed to make a lot of copies of it and sank them by turning all their lands into colorless mana producers. Cut them off at the knees. I was shocked because I didn''t realize how good it was. Hint:Calix/Extravagant Replication....

[Cobracon]

Bloodwitch takes the worst part of Cutthroat (only your stuff) and the worst part of Artist (only one person) and sandwiches them together into still a good card...

[Ozzymandios]

At one point your cats tail snaked across you face like an black stygian tentacle from an unnamed eldrich horror from the endless Abyss😅

[IAmQale]

A non-counterable, fact or fiction on a flying stick that begs to be flickered? Yes please.
