Thanks for making the overwhelming topic that is MTG lore into comprehensive, digestible and well produced videos!

I was driving home from a long road trip and I watched your first video 20 minutes ago and then I look for the second one and I found this one thank you :)

Thanks a lot for this video. I was looking forward to it.

Just discovered this channel. You are doing a superb job here, dude. Your videos are well produced, well organized, well narrated. Makes keeping up with the game's lore a really nice experience. Thanks a lot.

Still loving this series! Keep them coming!

I would have loved that tibalt had already took Valki’s place long before we knew about him on Innistrad. In fact, I would love to know if Tibalt is indeed a post-mending planeswalker or a pre-mending one who has lost his part of his “godly” powers.

Correction with the benefit of hindesight: Vorinclex was in fact, not slain.

Excellent job

A skald-worthy retelling of the events of Kaldheim!

Hey Lorebrarian, as always your work is amazing and I loved the video. It was really in-depth and fun to watch both of your videos on Kaldheim! I am hoping the plane isn't destroyed by Phyrexians because I love the new plane so much. Here is a theory I have heard from other MTG players and online is that the next year of upcoming sets with have one Phyrexian Praetor on every plane introduced for 2021. The next plane will have Jin Gitaxias on Strixhaven, and Innistrad will have Sheoldred. Hopefully in the end we will get a return to New Phyrexia and see an all out battle between Planeswalker with their allies from other worlds, against the forces of Phyrexia!

Glad you liked them! That is a very interesting theory about the praetors. I hold a similar view that phyrexia will be the major antagonist in the next years, perhaps what kasmina is preparing for? I made a few predictions of the sort in one of my videos

Brilliant breakdown, thank you. I play on Arena and other than the mechanics, these cards don’t really mean much to me. But after watching these videos, I’ve started to get a deeper appreciation of the thought and history behind the artwork.

@@TheLorebrarians Because MTG and DnD have started to crossover a lot, I would say that you might want to go back and do a Ravnica breakdown. Of all the planes, it's probably the one that DnD Dungeon Masters (including myself) gravitate towards the most and the Guidebook for DMs is pretty lackluster with regards to the history and lore of the plane.

Hello, just found out this channel, I really like the concept of following the story set by set and explaining it to people and the way you present it is really nice. I would like to see the following changes: - Spend less time on the realm itself, and more on the current events: As a player, I'm more invested in what is happening than what happened before. I think you could fit the realm presentation and history (up to the rise of Skoti) into a single video, and allocate more time to the current events. - Make those current events more dramatic: You present it in a fine and objective way, but that also makes it very academic and to the point. I think adding a bit of drama would go a long way in making the video more engaging to watch. Basically tell the story, instead of presenting it. Edit: I wrote this at 17:15, but what you are doing after this point is very engaging. - It's a very good idea to show the cards highlighting the events. I would like them to be a bit bigger, so I would not need to zoom in to see what the card does. - Finally, add a little touch of your own in the video. An example could be showing both Taya and Kivar's cards climbing the mountain to reach Tibalt, to illustrate what you're saying, or flipping Tibalt's card as he reveal himself.

I appreciate the feedback, a few others have voiced concerns over the size of cards so I'll look into it. And I'd love to get flashier with animations but I'm short on free time now with the end of my schooling, but hopefully after! I'll continue to spend time on the distant past and history, many viewers use it as inspiration for their own world building and D&D campaigns

great video as always about your predictions we can now say: well, yes, but actually no. but those were great guesses! followed the spotlight cards better than the story. I would die for you to make a video on Ravnica one day. I know it would be a MASSIVE work, but maybe between Strixhaven and the Vampire/Werewolves sets you will have enough of a widow of content. If you managed to cover Zendikar beautifully, Ravnica won't be that impossible. Because covering Innistrad... Oof, that will be a hell of a task.

@TheLorebrarians

3 жыл бұрын

Yes, some certainly missed the mark. But thank you! And I do plan on covering all the planes in the future, so stay tuned. Ravnica is definitely a favorite

Please do a video just like this or longer for every single MTG plane starting with an hour-long video on dominaria

My suggestion would be a huge indeavor for you, but could I suggest starting from the beginning? Legends and then the next one, and then Arabian Nights was the 3rd I believe. But my main point is, you have to search really deep to find the lore on any of the older lore. Google doesn't provide anything worthwhile. Which may be a problem you'd have too, but maybe you got the sources haha. But you'd be one of the only easily accessible sources for everybody if that was something you want to undertake

Great information, pal, but I'd like to point out that Kaya lost her daggers after her fight with the trolls. The art in Kaya's Onslaught depicts the fight in their first encounter with Vorinclex. After travelling with Tyvar to Immerstum, Kaya wielded hand axes instead.

That is a good observation! Although the place in which they fight does have a resemblance to the depiction of tyrite sanctum. Very interesting given the epilogue of today's story. Perhaps a mix of ideas from the creative/art team
