    You feel like emperor palpatine juiced up on pure uncut Colombian dark side; playing at a table with 3 other emperor palpatines. You don’t feel bad playing degenerate combos because everyone is. It’s great, it’s the only way I play magic now that legacy is pretty much dead.

    My ONLY issue with tainted pact and demonic consultation is that without thoracle existing, those two are ALMOST only cards for food chain decks. Now. We live in a thoracle world so the argument is not there but without thoracle those 2 cards suddenly I feel are more like 4.1 territory.

    I wouldn't say Yawgmoth's Will is recursion, I'd say it's more spell storm. I mean, yes, you can value Yawg Will, but the big benefit is copying your hand. I.e. A hand with Dark Ritual and Demonic tutor, becomes a hand with two copies of each. I think the problem with it in Commander is that it doesn't work as well with value pieces and really just wants ritual-tutor chains.

    Generally it's much worse than the competition that does similar things. Its worse than Breach and it's worse than Memnonic Betrayal. Honestly they were too generous with it. Its a 2, since most of the time you wont have the time to try to win again and 3 manas is a lot of manas.

    Necropotence gets cut way more often than it should be, IMO. Honestly, while it's definitely harder to cast (though dark ritual casts it by itself!), I like to think of the card like it's rhystic study a lot of the time - it's going to draw me a bunch of cards every turn cycle, and opponents can't even refuse to feed it. You definitely feel the life cost, and it makes you more of a threat, but "the card is so good people will be scared of you" is not the worst downside to have.

    Format is too fast and interactive for Necro. If you go T1 Dark Rit into Necro, you are most likely going to lose, since every creature will attack you, and its unlikely you can jam a win with 7 in the grip vs 21 cards of your opponents.

    I love how this hour-long video went by so incredibly quickly! Good banter and energy and chemistry that makes all the difference. In terms of the list, think I’d rate Dauthi a little lower, like around 4.75? Though the graveyard-hate and utility are great, I find myself cutting it more often than not in my 3+ color decks, even those with Tymna. Double black and needing to wait a turn to activate pushes it below 5 (and Top 10) imo. Necropotence probably deserves a higher rating and people should start experimenting with it more.

I think a nice middle ground would be a rotating reserve list that changed every couple of years but, like maybe just 10 cards every 5 years. I'd rather just abolish the reserve list. Oh no the card you speculated on went down from a thousand to $800 because it's got a newer reprint. Now non-rich people can play dual lands

    Hard disagree on not using consult to tutor. In turbo decks I regularly use it to find mana crypt or a silence. Depending on the deck, I think going for it in the first few turns is going to lead to more wins than waiting for your opponents to set up. And the turn 1 consult will really put some hair on your chest.
