It's basically how the script goes, as always. Jimmy always gets the short end of the stick.

FYI I ran 36 lands and 12 pieces of ramp in my deck - sometimes you just get unlucky with land drops. If someone else wants to calculate the likelihood of me missing a land drop after drawing so many cards, please feel free to do so. But need I remind you... t's a feature, not a bug people!!!! -jimmy

I think deck builders are over valuing mana rocks and dorks over playing more lands. Yes, the ceiling is high when you can continue to hit your land drops and get ahead on mana, but many times in game if you miss that next land drop, then that other ramp piece was effectively a land. However rocks/dorks are easy to remove and they usually happen to get caught up by sweepers, putting you behind.

@dontatmetillyouvebeenoutside I will! It seems pretty efficient if you can get the card draw on top of the scry, I guess I'm more worried about sustaining long enough to get the counters up high enough to win. Maybe adding some indestructible like Mithril Coat will help. The main combo I'm trying for is getting "Elrond, Master of Helaing" (commander) and "Arwen Undomiel" capatlizing with "SeedBorn Muse" as my win conditon. I found a great engine to add in is Fathom Mage, Shortcut to Mushrooms is a good engine using The Rings Card draw if u can tempt it high enough, Raise of Palisade seems like it'll be great removal. I'm going to experiment with "Three Rings for the Elven Kings" trying to copy counters and scry with that.

I love seeing how everyone always uses a completely different deck play style to show off all the intricacies the new sets introduce. Keep up the good work lads :)

The "players are halfling" effects is such a great idea. Very well done. 11/10 Bonus point for big chairs.

Absolutely GORGEOUS episode lads. Still in the beginning but the narration during the commanders is excellent. Thanks for the effort you guys put in. Everytime I’m wondering what you guys are up to with the slower upload schedule I’m immediately reminded by the next video.

It’s so ‘enchanting’ to see these ‘legendary’ ‘humans’ ‘sacrifice’ time out of their day to provide us entertainment. Bless you all

Haven't watched a full game knights episode in a while, this one is so fun to watch.

Josh playing five color isnt a suprise😅😂 Nice new table ✌️

oh my god the chairs LOL

That was one of the swingiest Game Knights in a while! Everyone got a chance to show off what their decks was capable of and the decks were very flavorful with their additions.

i only got into mtg this last year and got into commander less than a week ago and this channel has made learning more about commander and all the different mechanics and cards such a fun experience. keep up the amazing content you guys you make such a positive impact for new players like me.

It's always fun with Xolo or Jacob, but they're *both* here this time! I love this set; there's so much new stuff, and all of the reprints tie in with the flavor and the mechanics soooo well! I hope a lot of will go down in price sooner rather than later, but excited to at least get my hands on a few of these cards. Now I need to get Treebeard into my abzan life gain deck...

Jimmy: oh wait you could move it to 3 now right? Josh: that’s true, the 3rd one is… oh *quack* This actually sent me💀

@Argusthecat from Tolkien himself. "In principle, I object as I strongly as is possible to the "translation" of the nomenclature at all (even by a competent person). I wonder why a translator should think himself called on or entitled to do any such thing. That this is an "imaginary" world does not give him any right to remodel it according to his fancy, even if he could in a few months create a new coherent structure which it took me years to work out. I presume that if I had presented the Hobbits as speaking Italian, Russian, Chinese, or what you will he would have left the names alone. Or, if I had pretended that 'the Shire' was some fictitious Loamshire of actual England. Yet actually in an imaginary country and period as this one, coherently made, the nomenclature is a more important element than in an 'historocal' novel. But, of course, if we drop the 'fiction' of long ago. "The Shire" is based on a rural England and not any other country in the world - least perhaps of any in Europe or Holland, which is topographical wholly dissimilar. The topology of The Shire, to take the first list, is a 'parody' of that of rural England, in much the same sense as are its inhabitants: they go together and are meant to. After all the book is English, and by an Englishman, and presumably even those who wish it's narrative and dialogue turned into an idiom that they would understand, will not ask of a translator that he should deliberately attempt to destroy the local colour."
