Magnus Did Plenty Wrong - But His Card Is Sweet! MTG x 40k Commander Decks

We get a tokens-matters spell slinger commander, and he just so happens to be the powerful Magnus the Red, the Crimson King himself - Daemon Primach of the Thousand Sons.

That sorcerer next to Magnus doesn't look like Ahriman to me, Ahriman typically has the big swooping horns on his helmet with horns on his staff, and pre-heresy Ahriman has a khopesh type blade atop his staff. It looks like a regular aspiring sorcerer, so there is still hope for an Ahriman card to be in the deck

The fact that he can fuel himself with tokens is the cherry on top of a really good commander
I like how they named the abilities. Really gives that Warhammer feel

As someone new to Warhammer and old to Magic I appreciate the way you covered the lore.
Magnus did nothing wrong *Mortarion pointing at Typhus* "DA FUK!?"
I love how they made all these new commanders to be super balanced and not at all format warping. Good decisions being made over at WotC, as always. /s

Omg yes! Like some of the commanders work well with combos that already exist, but they don't create all new combos
I love him! My only gripe with him is that I thought he was going to be a planeswalker, like some of the characters from Baldurs Gate that are clearly not planeswalkers but still got the treatment. And, after re reading all my Thousand Sons Heresy books and finishing Fury of Magnus for the first time I stand for what I first thought about him: Magnus did nothing wronh

“Gushing, positively damp in the pantaloons for this stuff” I absolutely fucking lost it 🤣🤣love your content keep up the great work PK!
No, that is not Ahriman, that is the Aspiring Sorcerer from the Rubric Marines kit.
Your beautiful paint job on your boy shows just how 'damp your pantaloons' really are! A+
I was appalled by the thumbnail at first, but then I saw it was Pleasant Kenobi. 10/10 on brand thumbnail
magnus might well go into the spell slinger deck i've been building for the adventure games society at my uni
Magnus did nothing wrong!
Does Kykar not count for a Young Pyro in the command zone? Absolutely loved the video and all the lore info. My 40K knowledge is super tangential so more lore for these new mtg power houses is awesome
Both commander seem very strong. Grixis Demons on the heels of a set like New Capenna will be interesting for sure.
Ooooo wanna build this guy big time! Going wide casting spells siiiick. Thinking lil bit of hexproof / ward mechs and storm. Tempted by the model too. Well done crossover marketing 😂 Aroman might pop up as a normal creature if hes a minion of this ledge.
Honestly, love the 40K backstory, this is what i wanted from a video like this and i got it 🙏
Even a mediocre cast of Empty the Warrens, two or three Storm count, basically turns into a ritual in this deck.
Im very excited to see the art and flavor
Nice, keep 'em lined up Chief ! :P
Just watched an channel cover all the Primarchs. I know barely any 40K lore. Probably won't buy this since I don't play MtG anymore, but still awesome to see the artwork and fans nerding out about both hobbies.
I'm really happy they gave you a bunch of spoilers, you deserve it Vince!
Magnus goes into my Kykar deck.
This is going to be the first paper Magic set that I have bought since modern horizons 2.
I have been trying to make a young pyromancer edh deck for years now. This so perfect, the only thing i could ask for is if it included white or black for monastery mentor or sedgemoor witch

Are you even aware of the massive chess fiasco going on right now? With world champion Magnus Carlsen? This is very well timed.
I'm very conflicted here I enjoy Warhammer lore and I enjoy MTG, I don't really like the idea of these different IPs being a part of magic but at the same time there are plenty of powerful cards and commanders I see and really want to play with
Of course, everyone knows how expensive red and blue instants and sorceries are and how they really needed affinity for them to be viable. Finally someone recognizes the pain of trying to cast all those counter and damage spells.

Throw that new Mythic Blue Enchantment from DMU in his deck. Target Magnus with cheap spells, creating a token and doubling his cost reduction.
for a second i thought that PK got into the Chess drama and was commenting on Magnus Carlsen 😅
So, he really *_does_* play red and blue.
If you do end up building Magnus, would you please do a tech on it? That would be sweet. Or, whatever Warhammer card you build around, please share that with your fans? Please with a cherry?
I'm sorry to point this out.....but that isnt Ahriman, I think thats just an aspiring sorcerer. Ahriman has a very different helmet and staff. That said, cant wait to make this deck and rep my favorite faction in 40k.
I don't think that's ariman on the card that's just a normal sorcerer of the thousand suns
Looks like I'm getting all the 40k decks. My wallet is going to hate me.
How dare you say I did ANYTHING wrong?! :O
BRITISH TALKY MAN, YOUR CHANNEL PICTURE HAS CHANGED.
Magnus as a legendary creature is okay, but he'd have been better represented as a Planeswalker.
@thomasfleming8131
Жыл бұрын
I don't entirely disagree, but the issue with that is that all of the primarch's are known for wading into the thick of combat and kicking ass, even Alpharius. So making Magnus a planeswalker (unless they gave him a Gideon or Sarkhan ability) would prevent that.
Magnus's card and ability looking freaking awesome.. I bet they will put my boy Mortarion in too. Oh man I bet his card is going to be so freaking badass... Nope just seen it, its kind of shit. Well I am bummed out now. Its got an ability that could be good if you build around it some in another deck but in the 40k precon its almost worthless with only a few ways to deal damage to self on your turn to use. A few mana rocks that can deal you 1 damage to use, Belakor, if you have mana left over once you cast him and the Nurgle tallyman which can get you 1 life or 7 if you hit the conditions.
If you like the idea of the commander, there is also a Wort Raidmother deck you can build. Tokens are the easiest way to get more bodies, and it's gruul spellslinger, arguable the cooler thing compared to izzet. But both are great decks
Probably comparable to anhelo but going in a different direction, pretty cool but i do wish it was just a normal card. However with that said i think his mana cost and his mechanics are slightly weaker than anhelo so i'm not upset it's a 40k card, just slightly disappointed that the mechanic is quite unique.

you know. I hate the universe beyond stuff. its part of the funko popisation of everything where the pop is killing the culture. Warhammer is a weird niche hobby that shares a lot of common ground with MTG so I actually think this crossover is really good (altrough I feel the magic artist are a bit too clean for warhammer sometimes)

See, you *say* that, but when you look into it a bit further you'll find that quite a number of artists who illustrate Magic cards were just... already making artwork for the Warhammer franchise, long before this particular crossover: Ryan Barger, Daarken, Wayne England (RIP), Igor Kieryluk, Karl Kopinski, Clint Langley, Slawomir Maniak, Raymond Swanland, Kev Walker, etc, and that was just the artists whose names jumped out at me as I was scrolling down a list. Also, pull up the list of spoilers for the decks and scope the actual art credits: you're going to notice that quite a number of the cards previewed so far list their artist credit as simply "Games Workshop" - that's because it's literally just existing official art *from* 40K, now being used on a Magic card.
