Game Knights Live: Tournament of the Guilds w/ The Professor | MagicCon Chicago | MTG Commander EDH

--------

Show Notes:

In front of a huge live audience at MagicCon: Chicago, Game Knights Live aims to solve the biggest riddle of them all: Which of the Ravnican guilds is truly the greatest? And who better to join us for that debate, than Magic’s greatest academic: The Professor!

If you couldn’t be there in-person for the epic battle, don’t worry! We’ve got the whole glorious smackdown here for your viewing pleasure. Will Prof’s Izzet League take home the trophy? Or will the prize go to JLK’s Golgari Swarm, Jimmy’s Orzhov Syndicate, or Rachel’s Boros Legion? No matter who wins, it’s going to be a battle for the ages that you don’t want to miss!

(Game Knights Live: Chicago was originally performed on 02/23/24)

[TolarianCommunityCollege]

The greatest Magic experience of my life. Thank you to everyone for being a part of it.

[jakelarntz]

I absolutely love hearing that the prof was so warmly welcomed. Can't think of a more deserving person.

[OrzhovRandy]

I made this account just for this video. I'm Randy, the Orzhov Trivia guy. Such a blast and surreal moment! I hope my section got good stuff from those packs! Love y'all!

[furonet]

The music in the player intros did not need to go so hard. Big ups to whoever made those, especially the metal version of the TCC theme!

[TheSmartCinema]

Whenever they bring a kid on stage, they are cementing that moment as one of the best memories of their childhood, and will carry it through their lives. It's easy to forget how much of an impact just bringing a kid on stage with her Rachel is having on those kids. I love Rachel for stuff like that.

[davismoore]

I was in the Orzhov section - Randy is our hero! We will forever be grateful to him!

[joshbaker]

Dang, that Professor entrance …. Chef’s kiss

[GoodMorningMagic]

I hope you all enjoy - this was such a blast to be a part of ❤

[zacharia]

this is epic, i was so confused on why you want to watch a game knight live, like its just a edh game... I WAS WRONG Holly molly, we got cosplay, announcers, flags, massive cards, and funny banter. 10/10

[triky.riky]

Rachel straight up COOKED at the end. Especially putting into context the recent video on being in your “zone of genius”, I really saw Rachel shine in her problem solving mode. True genius & clear that she was considering tons of outcomes and found a way out in the heat of the moment!

[kurophoenix]

i was the one who wheeled for prof. tbh, got a little too excited and chose pretty high. was a fun game overall! thank you for letting me take part of it!

[lonepanda]

noone acknowledging olivia's "can't thop won 't thop" hurt me

[Hoebasaur]

Events like this make me so happy. Watching a group of cool ass nerds come together over something they love and spread joy amongst the community is just so wholesome and good. Thank you Game Knights for making MTG even more magical ✨

[dinklebob]

WHO WROTE THOSE INTROS?!?!? Every single line was absolute perfection. Whoever wrote those should be so unbelievably proud of themselves.

[Milehighssc]

The absolute production of this was unreal. Hats off not only to the decks and players but also ALL of the staff behind the scene up crew). These just KEEP GETTING BETTER. Absolute banger CZ

[mihail]

I love how we havent really seen JLK in Black-Green until his Mycotyrant debut, and now he is playing Golgari in GameKnights live. Amazing

[zramirez]

"The Pedagogue of Paying the One (sometimes)" is the best line in the entire shoot

[aloestrafire]

All of their outfits are so amazing, but I cannot get over The Prof's light up lightning gauntlet!! Props to whoever made the props!!

[nicholasrolo]

JOSH IS ALMOST 50!???

The whole Old Rutstien thing was fantastic

[thumbwrestler]

Didn’t get to watch it live but it was such a fun game to watch with tons of twists and turns! The cosplay was incredible! Cheers to the great live audience and everyone working hard to put this together ❤
