I did shake Josh's hand I was just removing my thumb from the hole in my sweater to give a proper handshake (because I thought it would be rude not to lol)

Jamie dresses exactly as I would expect a vampire player to dress

You may want a Homeward Path in your Locust God deck lmao

Super cool that we got too see such a flavorful match with Edgar Markov + Stensia! By the way, can you notify us when you are playing Planechase Commander on the title? That would be helpful for people that both like and dislike it.

I put it in the thumbnail due to the character limitation in KZread video titles. As it is, most of my titles are just on the cusp of being too long, so adding Planechase often pushes them over.

Other than what you said in the video. I play Locust God at my LGS and have won a few times with him now. Cut some lands to like 35 and boost those mana rocks up to what you would if it was Breya (10+). You want the ability to cast him turn 3. Low lands sounds bad, but you should have enough wheels to get whatever you need. Generally your opponents don’t want to take a turn off to deal with your threat just yet. Super Secret tech that I don’t see you running is Abjure. Single blue counter any spell, you just have to sacrifice a blue permanent. This lets you sac a locust, or even the locust God so he doesn’t get exiled, so you never pay that tax.

Mad respect for Josh, not running an overplayed commander, like what everyone else was playing. I will say, if you run a powerful Commander like Locust God, expect the entire table to try and screw you over.

Great video! Heroes podium is awesome! Josh’s deck was really spicy, i’ve Never seen that type of deck before

Josh is a beautiful man with a beautiful brain

I absolutely love that you played planechase in this game, me and my playgroup combine edh and and planechase from time to time, it sometimes creates the most hilarious games played. Given that you play a bit less casual than we do it might be even more ridiculous at times c:

That Reki deck was pretty sweet!

Im so glad Reki won! I love seeing out of the ordinary commander decks!

I've been really interested in making a Legendary tribal deck in Black called "I couldn't decide on my commander, so i'm playing all of them." A friend of mine built a brilliant Jenala Polymorpher person deck that's almost entirely legendaries, except it has blightsteel and platinum emperion! Great video, keep it going!

Sean built something similar with mono-red. I don't want to spoil it though!

I love Planechase, our EDH group uses it constantly. I hope you use it more and that you get some of the more shenanigans oriented planes.

Are you planning to do more Conquering your Commander videos in the future? I love the locust god deck and it would be sweet to see how you built it.

I'm pretty sure had you waited 1 turn at 6:02 you could have cast kindred discovery, used jace's archaists ability and won from impact tremors triggers before you decked yourself. Though we don't know what your opponents had at the time before the wheel.

speaking of alternate gameplay, yall should try Sheriff some time. that would be interesting to see :) (awesome video, as always. i really wanna build locust god but hes not in my normal color/playstyle range)

Im like 1 week away from finishing my Reki deck so this got me all sorts of excited when I saw this.

My mistake then. The Swamp looks like a Plains. I rewatched his first turn, definitely a Swamp. I thought of the Signet before initially commenting. I'm also beginning to believe, Jamie was organizing his cards and situating his jacket sleeves before extending his hand.

He did shake. I just cut it off, whoops!

I have a locust god deck and it actually tends to do decent even when i cast on turn 6. I also chose to not run every single wheel possible because that just felt generic to me.

I loved it, I also have the Arjun/Whirlpool warrior combo in a Nekusar deck I have

I don't know what it is but your videos are so satisfying

Do you think that The Locust God and Arjun could be interchangable as the commander? (and Niv-mizzet and Karanos for that matter) I"ve been wanting to build an Izzet commander with a draw theme and can't decide which one. But, they all seem to want to build around similar things.

@Zaalbarjedi

6 жыл бұрын

Totally not. Locust God is winning you the game on its own if it sticks around. Arjun does nothing but making you unable to rely on your hand, which is extremely bad for control deck. He is good for Locust God's strategy as part of 99 when all you need is to draw cards, no matter what exactly you are drawing, but crap as commander Niv-Mizzet is somewhat similar to God, but relies more on Curiosity-type effects which are not that useful in God deck. Keranos is just izzet heavy control commander. He is not that suitable as a draw theme commander.

Pet peeve of mine.. I do not like when people put their mana rocks with their lands. I've known people to stack their lands up in a pile too, sometimes mana rocks get missed during board wipes or when deciding targets this way.

I wanna see more of Joshs Reki deck.

Love Planechase + EDH, wish it was possible to play on MtGO. Have you ever played The Eternities Map variant? Probably takes up too much space for these filmed games but otherwise seems to be a great balance of randomness and planning. magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/feature/eternities-map-2010-07-19 Looking forward to more of these Planechase + EDH down the line.

planechase commander was super cool to watch

I recently made a reki deck. It’s a funny deck to play because I make my friends sit through a bunch of kamigawa flavor text.

COOOOOOL, Plane Chase!

Love that Reki

So, I play a lot of Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind (which is a slightly better version of the Locust God). I can echo sentiments about optimising, cutting some lands (as low as 32~33) and going like 10+ rocks (I typically run 10, including very pricey ones) and a lot of wheels. That said, you'll be distilling your deck into a combo+disruption suite. I don't get the sentiment that you guys run a lot of optimised lists (except maybe evil Adam's deck$), so that something to keep in mind when going that route. I don't wanna tell you what to build, but if I could suggest Dig Through Time... it's cheap and works so well with this commander. I noticed you're missing it and that card is so stupidly powerful.

@mrf1shie

Nezard0 Personally I prefer my locust god deck to the Niv-mizzet deck I converted it from. While I agree the Niv-mizzet deck can be a more powerful combo deck I think if you're not optimizing for an early combo the 'fair' locust god deck is better as it actually gives you some creatures to play with. Maybe it's my meta but I found that I was getting trounced by 'grave pact' decks, or any creature based strategy with niv if I didn't immediately combo off.

Man, plane chase is fun!

Have to question why Josh countered your boardwipe. It really wasn't going to hurt him that much. It probably would've helped against Josh's takeover

Oh man I love Reki. So great to see it win.

What a game !

Kevin has all these blinged out cards and just smacks them into the able and actively bends them, meanwhile I sit over here and die on the inside from it.

Love Reki, but that deck was a bit slow and under-powered.

Weres the beautiful land Homeward Path on the deck to save lotus god :O

I love Planechase!

I am glad Josh won cause Kevin plays nasty with them counterspells

Yes. Fun game. Sorry about your commander. Maybe, its worth side-boarding more hexproof.

Did he block with your locus god when he died or did I miss that?

As someone who plays the Locust god, giving him a turn can be pretty dangerous depending on how synergistic you build the deck. So in all fairness, its not that unwarranted to clentch a bit when he sees the battlefield. At the same time, Kevin made some...impulsive control decisions.

Am I the only one that felt like Kevin wasn't playing well? A blink deck countering a mass bounce seems counterintuitive, especially when it's coutered with Voidslime, the counter you least want to waste!

Kevin had the Cyc Rift in hand which would have dealt with Jamieson if he swung at him. He countered the wipe to protect his own stuff because he was drawing poorly.

Also, I dont know if you were keen to this already, but Azami and Arcane adaptation (naming wizards) is a pretty wonky infinite draw combo. That and the blue curse is *a lot* of fun to put on yourself for a variety of reasons.

I think you should have played it out and not scooped. You had Arjun out, and you got your Locust God back. Cast the god and then try to cast low cost spells to Arjun enough Locust.
