I love all the decorations around the room and the themed outfits everyone is wearing. Is this something you guys are going to be doing for every set from now on? If so, I’m definitely a fan!

Anonymous

Did they edit the pre-cons? Or are they as-is?

commandzone

We have Ashlen and Ladee to thank for all of that awesome production design. Not sure if we'll be able to do it for EVERY set, but definitely something we want to do more often. -JLK

That Wheel of Fortune edit reminded me of the old Disney movies! Love the diversity!

Anonymous

Great game Sad we didn't get to see Jadzi but the Journey to the Oracle was insane. This is the third time Altar of Dementia killed someone. :D

Anonymous

Sorry! I don't think the precons include wheel of fortune or cyclonic rift, would be sweet though :D

Anonymous

Sad to see Jimmy die first, man wanted to see those combos but still was happy to see combos from other people, my need to see combos is crazy, but still it was a explosive game. more combo for each deck will really glue me to the screen.

Anonymous

interesting game. Josh why did you choose not to run Aria of Flame?

Jcjonesacp76

Loved the ending. Josh when will you learn?

Anonymous

Well RIP Lorehold/ Boros. Another game that we missed ya.

Anonymous

If anyone's going to die to value, it's gonna be JLK 😂

Anonymous

Love this, and particularly love the animation for Prismari Command, that was epic! Sad we didn't get to see Jimmy's commander out, maybe he can play it again another time?

Anonymous

Isn't this the second time Josh has lost because he went for value? Flashbacks of the Uro deck.

Anonymous

Josh should've targeted Kat with one of those Explosions draw ability. The greed is real lol.

Anonymous

That look that Jimmy gives to camera, absolutely priceless! We've all been there my dude, we've all been there haha.

Anonymous

Prismai Command animation was stellar! Also neat Easter egg I noticed was the sign in blood animation spells out Josh Lee Kwai in Norse Elder runes!

Anonymous

Cassius may not have played in this one, but the raw power level from the last episode has carried over to this one. Pretty fitting that Josh and Jimmy's decks played like manaless dredge decks right after Jimmy cast Life From The Loam.

Altar of Dementia about to be on JLK’s most hated cards huh

Me every 3 seconds of this game: Alright, pop off king

I am so happy about the representation you build into all Game Knights episodes, and never more than this one. You are a huge credit to the Magic community. When my kid's parents ask me what about this weird card game, I can point them to your content and prove that Magic is for everyone.

Anonymous

Josh could not have killed Jimmy with the Veyran token. Accelerate was cast at the same time as Sublime Epiphany, which means that when he declared targets for those spells the token copy of Veyran did not exist

Anonymous

Inspired!!!! I had to watch it right away and LOVED it. Amazing animation and great game play!! Thank you for everything you do! My family can’t wait to get our Commanders sets!!! It’s going to be a full family Strixhaven battle!

Anonymous

I'm curious to hear the thought process behind showing these decks, which look like a mix between Commander 2021, Strixhaven, and other old cards, as opposed to the commander precons out of the box or with just a few upgrades.

Anonymous

Did Josh have more than three lands on that first map trigger? If he only had three, she shouldn’t have been able to play that Plains

Anonymous

Ah, she had two lands and a sol ring

Zachary Rothschild

Would love to see animation for the other command cards as well. Love the intro everyone from Craig to Kyle the professor showed up and it was just awesome.

Anonymous

Josh, it’s time to start running Eldrazi Titans so this doesn’t happen a third time lololol

Anonymous

Yo JLK...can I get your autograph?? That was incredible. HUGE shoutout to the entire Command Zone crew, you guys have been absolutely crushing it!!

Anonymous

Hi everybody! I have a rules-question: was JLK actually allowed to target KAt with Jeska’s will, while she still had protection from everything with Teferi’s protection? Hell of a game though. I enjoyed watching it a lot! Keep up the great work!

Amazing end

Glad to see Olivia back, she's one of my favorite Game Knight guests!

Love the Witherbloom and Silverquill intros!

Anonymous

This made me so happy. great episode I wanted to see her win and i love all the new cards.

Anonymous

Really fantastic episode. The intros are so amazing, the animations continue to be top notch and everyone at the table just seem to have so much fun.

Thingymabob

Spectacular game, great animations, funny skits at the start, and I love seeing Olivia on the show. But I do have a rules question regarding Mizzix's Mastery. It exiles all the cards at the same time and then casts the chosen copies at the same time, right? If my understanding of how that works is right then the token copy of JLK's commander wouldn't get pumped as the spells had already been cast and it wasn't there to see them. Given that's how it happened and I know a judge is usually on the set I assume I'm wrong. But I'm still curious.

Anonymous

Man this video's for the college's!!!! So sick 👌👌👌

Anonymous

Also mentioned in an earlier comment, the token would not have existed at the time that accelerate was cast (when targets are chosen), so it would not have been able to have been given haste. #JIMMYNEVERLOST

Anonymous

Amazing game! But question about Josh’s play with the Mizzix Mastery. It says that each card is cast, therefore assuming they are all cast and declare a target at the same time, so I don’t think Accelerate could have legally targeted the token copy of Veyran who was created by another spell cast at the same time?

Anonymous

What an impressive and awesome intro guys!

Anonymous

Ooh yeah, all those cast triggers (and targets!) being chosen on resolution, ouch. One _hopes_ that Josh had a Fling or a Twiddle in his hand after he exploded Kat, which he could have used to artistically smoosh Jimmy.

Anonymous

SWEEEET...Quandrix RULES!!!

I really liked that you didn't play with the precons but chose to build around the alternate generals! Every channel and their sister has done a precon-episode, you mixed things up! Great episode! Favourite animation: Arcane Signet. Also: Silverquill for life!

Anonymous

Wonderful video! On a side, I don't think Jimmy could copy his Temple of the False God with Vesuva, as they entered simultaneously.

Anonymous

Love it when Orzhov(Silverquill) gets the win!

Thingymabob

Side note, Olivia showing us why she's Silverquill. That sharp tongue during the game.

Anonymous

Nice job both in terms of deck building and in gameplay. Good game, John, Jimmy, Olivia, and Kat-- so much fun to watch!

Anonymous

I'm confused, how was Josh putting two +1/+1 on his commander for each instant or sorcery he was casting? The commander reads "Veyran, Voice of Duality Magecraft — Whenever you cast or copy an instant or sorcery spell, this gets +1/+1 until end of turn. If you casting or copying an instant or sorcery spell causes a triggered ability of a permanent you control to trigger, that ability triggers an additional time." It's second ability is only causing a trigger ability to go off a second time, it's not making a copy of the spell he played?

Thingymabob

Exactly, the trigger happens twice. So for every instant/sorcery Josh casts his commander triggers. But then the trigger happens again due to her own static effect. So she gets +1/+1 twice.

Anonymous

The Prismari's Command animation was totally amazing. I had to rewind twice just to enjoy it more

Anonymous

I think the animations are cool but there are SOOOOOO many now it gets kind of frustrating to watch. That's probably just me though lol

Whats a good way to upgrade my silverquill elder dragon commander?

Fun Episode, we enjoyed it.

This might be my favorite game knights episode yet.

These introduction videos are phenomenal, for the schools. And yes, Kyle Hill / the Professor are both very, very Quandrix.
