The only problem with two card win con+tutor in general is that you may not have enough mana to make it happen immediately. Now, if you do have the extra mana to cast whichever part of the combo they don't give you... great. But it can be slightly more subtle than just any two card game winning combo and a tutor. Incidentally, that's kinda why I like Expropriate if you're doing the Thassa's Oracle win, because the only way you don't automatically win without going through a full turn cycle is if they give you Omniscience and Expropriate (Omniscience+Enter the Infinite=cast Thassa's Oracle or Jace and win; Enter the Infinite+Expropriate=cast Thassa's Oracle or Jace on the extra turn I get and win), but I feel like the odds of losing when I get a couple of extra turns and have an Omniscience are still pretty close to 100%. Anyway, even then, exactly what cards you choose should depend on the exact situation (I mean, if I have enough mana left after casting Ultimatum then I go ahead and grab a tutor and follow your plan), but the point is that Emergent Ultimatum can be constructed as "I win the game," and I think we all agree on that.

With my pile, you don't need extra mana, extra setup, and you don't need to wait. You win immediately with 7 mana. If they don't give you Tooth and Nail, you get get Omniscience and Behold the Beyond. Go tutor your 2 card creature combo and any other card, then cast them for free since you have Omniscience. Win. If they don't give you Omniscience, use the Behold the Beyond first to tutor for the two creatures and any other card, then use Tooth and Nail to put them on the battlefield for free. Win. If they don't give you the Behold the Beyond, use Tooth and Nail to go find the 2 creatures, then cast them for free using Omniscience. Win. Mikaeus, the Unhallowed and Triskelion are the creatures I've been using in my examples, but you can use any 2 creature combo.

In the beginning of magic, the idea was that no one would know all the different magic cards and there would be no widely available lists for each set. That way it would be a mysterious game everytime you sat down to play. WotC has recaptured that by printing so many sets and cards at the same time that no one can keep track or remember them all.

The mana design of each Ultimatum card is such that the non-adjacent color gets 3. You mentioned something about the costs with the Mardu one. Since white is not adjacent to black or red on the color wheel for those unaware (or look at the back of your magic cards), it gets 3 on the Mardu. Every one of them has this for this cycle.

actually, when you guys were talking about the ozolith, you were correct in saying that technically they are new counters of the exact same number and types as the creature that died. However... the wording there with “those” was entirely intentional so as to not imply that players had to put all new dice/glass beads/whatever on the ozolith. it was meant to imply that you CAN just use the exact same dice/glass beads/whatever and just slide them over to the ozolith (in most cases, a notable exception being skullbriar who actually doubles the counters)

It's one of those things that doesn't seem like it should work that way. Ozolith is meant to "move" the counters from the dead creature to a live one, like picking up the die off one and putting it in another, but the game defines that as two separate instances of creating new counters on a permanent while simultaneously destroying the old ones.

Also huge thank to Jimmy, Josh and the rest of the command zone team for putting all the content you did out, it's all content I can reference back to for updating or brewing new decks.

Generally Swiftfoot Boots are prolly better when you have the option, though

Kinekamaru it depends on the effect. 4 cmc spells often aren’t game-winning or must-answers. Eerie ultimatum at 7 cmc needs a board wipe, and if you’re filling your yard with things that make your board indestructible, the list of useful wipes becomes very narrow. Context is key, and the comparisons aren’t 1 to 1.

Really stressful on the budget players.

A cute cheat to Emergent Ultimatum is to include Demonic Tutor in it, then you can tutor up the card they put away. So your pile could be: - Omniscience - Expropriate - Demonic Tutor If they go Omniscience + Expropriate, you should win the game. If they go Omniscience + Demonic Tutor, you tutor Expropriate back up and win. If they go Expropriate + Demonic Tutor, you tutor up Omniscience and cast it during Expropriate's extra turn after stealing the opponent's lands with Expropriate.

From a Listener: I think tying the Commander precons to a set release is a pretty clever move from Wizards to get us Commander players more interested in the new sets. I liked the idea of having the precons tied to the new sets as a player too, because they seem like a better product to go alongside the set than the Planeswalker decks to me. Looking forward to, and hoping that it will be more like what they're planning to do around the new Zendikar set etc into future. I'm planning to put Luminous Broodmoth and Bastion of Remembrance into my Aristocrats deck, but Nethroi's mutate ability is the one that had me the most excited. There are a lot of cards in the set that seem pretty powerful in the right decks, but in terms of generically powerful, I think Kinnan probably has to be up there. But if you're doing Abzan aristocrats, Eerie Ultimatum is insane.

None of those restrictions here, meaning you can continue to create krakens, and you don't have to go all in so you have board wipe recovery, plus you can create them at instant speed. also, it comes out the turn before a wheel effect (around 8 cards drawn for that turn), perfect curve going there.

On Bonder’s Enclave- I agree that the ability at 4 mana does hurt Monowhite, but I believe it’s not because white doesn’t have enough density of things with 4+ power. A lot of monowhite commanders fulfill the condition, and those commanders also often are part of the strategy, I mean you don’t run just any white commander “for the color”. 4 mana does put this in top deck range, where monowhite will often be fine taking a turn off drawing a card than taking a turn off to draw a land. Sun Titan is a staple that shows up, voltron/equipment strategies will push more creatures into the threshold for it, Divine Visitation turns all those tokens into a good time and sees lots of play, or even in token strategies that have anthem effects this will do well. Theoretically tribal strategies have a shot at this since a lot of tribal pay offs are anthem effects. Green loves this because it has mana and creatures accidentally, but I’m not sure green decks jam this in as much when it’s 4 mana. But what if it was 3? Or what if it was 2?! Either way you’d see Bonders Enclave in a significant amount of white, but also nonwhite decks. As much as it’d help white, it wouldn’t feel like catching up. But also can monowhite give up a utility land slot for something like this? Since a lot of monowhite ramp cares about plains specifically, there needs to be a careful balance of any non basics. Is it fair to say monowhite should care about it’s utility land slots more, since it is considered the weakest color in EDH and therefore has the most to gain from utility lands? So does this even make the cut now? What about boros, is it better? I think this wasn’t designed as a bone thrown for white, but rather for strategies that overlap higher power In any color for a budget. It’s a solid upgrade card If you haven’t put much thought into nonbasics for real cheap.

Favorite overall card from Ikoria (that is a legendary): Lurrus of the Dream-Den Not only as a commander, but as a card in the 99, it just gives you flexibility that you might not otherwise have. When I read it and realized that my Karlov of the Ghost Council deck might be able to run it as a 101st card, its crazy! Not to mention it has its own combo and if its in the command zone you can just recur your pieces. I seen this and thought "Its a BW version of Kess/Karador/Sun Titan, but it gets ANYTHING (yes you still have to cast it, but still, look at the decks like Karador and Kess and how powerful they are)! It also adds in an interesting deck "restriction", in which you look for cards with CMC 2 or less that have strong abilities that you want to abuse, like Animate Dead/Dance of the Dead (get back big creatures from your deck you milled out or died, or jack stuff from the opponent), Seal of Cleansing /Executioner's Capsule (recurrable removal), Expedition Map/Wayfarer's Bauble ("ramp" to a degree) and utility creatures such as Kami of False Hope or things like Mind Stone to sac, draw and recast when you really need it Favorite overall card: The Ozolith Ozolith just adds a whole new level of thinking and play to work with. It works with all of the keyword counters, +1/-1 counters, charge counters ect. It is just something unique that you havent seen. It might also be bias, cause my Karlov of the Ghost Council deck will be acquiring one. Karlov dies and gets all of the counters, then you just get Karlov back and throw the counters back onto him. Hell, even if you cant attack with him, you now have creature removal (provided you have a lot of counters). With the bonus of adding on keyword counters, its nuts. Lets not forget its whenever it LEAVES! It doesn't matter if you Path it, you bounce it to your hand, goes into the library ect. As soon as it leaves, the Ozolith acts like a magnet and sucks those badbois up! Honorable Mention: Luminous Broodmoth LBM is a really interesting card and is unique to white. Even if you kill a really powerful creature, LBM will just bring it back if it didn't have Flying. Sure, there aren't a "ton" of powerful white cards that you might want to keep, but the fact that for free you get them back so you can trigger ETB, your opponent has to board wipe twice or remove LBM before board wiping means you cost your opponents resources they might not otherwise want to spend. Strongest overall card: Titan's Nest Im not really big on delve, cause I like using my graveyard as a resource or for recursion and not really for mana. It only adds colorless mana, cant be used with X spells where big finishers are cards like Torment of Hailfire/Exsanguinate, Villianous Wealth ect. Cards with delve are very powerful and giving it to all spells is great. Just not the card that excites me. Two sets side by side release: I think the problem I had, was that the hype was gone after it was pushed back a month, prerelease isn't going to happen in the traditional way, and after reading about the cards a month ago, I haven't really looked at them since. With the pandemic, it is also hard for people to get excited cause the "Addiction" goes away, you have to be careful with spending if you aren't working. I don't overly like that some of the Ikoria cards in the C20 set fill in the "reprint" slots. I feel like thats a bit of a cop out. Not to say that WotC shouldn't have included cards in both sets. I just don't think they should be considered "reprints" when they are "just released".

Now that you guys put the realease date made me think. As a exclusively EDH player, i used to really pay attention to the EDH related product, but, with both coming out (standard and EDH) makes kinda hard to really pay attention to the possibilities of the cards, because there are to much to see. I still like it in the matters of creating commanders to the set mechanics, but, since the mechanics are complex (mutate and counters) i think it make hard to us, EDH players to really evaluate correctly what we want to buy because we are not totally sure how things so unique are gonna play.

Question, you use otrimi to mutate a creature with an etb, let's say wood elves, then you'll flicker/blink the mutated card, when it comes back into play, those cards would split right? But will you have 2 triggers of etb? Like otrimi will also have that etb trigger from wood elves?

I agree that releasing a large commander set alongside a main set is absolutely overwhelming. I'm excited for new cards, but it feels like there's way too much at once. A ton of new products coming out makes me worried I'm not going to be able to play with all of it sufficiently. I feel like either one or two fewer commander decks (or just a separation of their release dates by a month or two) would help to rectify this, similar to the sets planned later this year that will launch with only two commander decks each. With that method, if they make three main sets a year we'd still be getting six commander decks, which is two more than we'd have been getting under the previous method of four per year each August. More commander-centric products, but spaced out so that the players/consumers don't suffer from burnout.

Love the show, even tho I typically would be considered a competitive edh player and prefer that style. I enjoy watching the game knight episodes. They seem fun in general and it helps me to see casual commander as a possibility when there are no competitive pods to jump into. Casual commander reminds me of years gone by playing insanely huge games of multiplayer games with between 13-15 players with the average decks containing 350-500 cards each. Those games usually lasted 8-10 hours each. They were fun back then, and slow enough to go outside for a smoke without fear of missing your turn. Nostalgic best describes casual edh for me. Not dreadful, just slow. I like 10 minutes games and lots of them. But your podcasts are entertaining and it seems you both are actual friends, which is nice. I like the infect guy :) I used to play a skittles deck, very often got him out turn 1 or turn 2 and got to watch the fear on my opponents faces as they scrambled to exile him or tuck him. Tucking generals was a thing then, it still should be imho. Keep up the good fun guys. Read your emails occasionally :)

I forgot to mention your set reviews are good, I don’t always agree with the cards you both seem excited about, but then I am usually only excited by 1-3 cards per set. Ikoria does have a few good ones though. Kinnan, Bonder prodigy seems fun. The tri-lands are pretty bleh, come into play tapped. What they need are tri-fetch lands, I would play those :)

Luminous broodmoth is a card I would play in casual alongside solemnity for the lols, with maybe Phyrexian altar or sadistic hypnotist as sack outlets. Maybe I should not play casual too often. Besides I would need to play my Ayli, eternal pilgrim deck, it’s my least competitive deck. It might be viable in a casual pod. I sent you guys a decklist if it in your email, I suppose you could look it over and let me know if you think it fair enough to play in casual edh. Ok well have fun guys. I will no doubt continue to watch your shows. Maybe you guys could do a competitive show just one time, and play like the best of three games or something haha.

I have 2 thoughts when it comes to releasing 2 sets at once. 1) I think it's pretty cool from a story perspective to have cards that directly tie into the current set, such as one of the main commanders being the daughter of a card in the main set. But I feel like this could still be accomplished if commander was released a month later 2) it is way to overwhelming from an information overload standpoint, as well as financial standpoint. I personally have to make a choice of commander decks or booster box or a happy medium of not getting all.
