The Karn crowd surfing edit was sublime. Thank you for that, Editor!
Blood Moon in 2nd game was def correct as Seth needed Vtutor to not be out of the game and it put both Richard and Crim out of the game. 6/6 lifelinker is strong but it'd have to stay back with Slicer on board so it's not an issue once Slicer appears. The real mistake (prob with hindsight) was Crim not playing the Magistrate as it'd have blocked both Tomer and Seth from using Commanders but on turn 1 you could argue it was not a bad choice to wait 1 turn before playing it.

Crim is just not good at this format but doesnt wanna admit to it. Given the line of play of him not choosing to play the Dranith T1, he should've then not fetched immediately, and get more information before fetching since he doesnt even need the mana for anything.

Tomer doing his little Slicer dance while everyone tries to reason with each other about how to not die to Slicer.
I gotta say: for someone who likes griefer decks, Crim certainly salts off and throws games a lot, often from his own mistakes and misplays. Regarding game 2, Drannith Magistrate shuts off Underworld Breach, and as we saw, the combo decks' backup plans involve their commanders. There's no reason to be coy about your cards in cEDH if you're Winota. Just jam your creatures and hate cards. Play to the board; that's how you win. Once Crim decides not to play his t1 hate piece, Tomer is also absolutely correct to jam Blood Moon on turn 1 because he's playing against two 4-5 colour combo decks and has a reasonable follow-up in t2 Slicer. Seth may have won anyway because he had the right tutor and made a reasonable decision with it, but for all Crim's complaining about kingmaking, his spite plays only took Tomer (who made a reasonable play) out of the game and made a Seth/Richard victory inevitable.

The irony of Crim hard tilting from a single stax piece while playing a stax deck is deafening.
Forgot to mention. I love the intro. I'm a big fan of learning about decks during the game. So not having an enormously long intro with explanations is sweet.
Just seeing Seth sitting there with 4 tutors in his hand and him just saying "Hmmmmmm" is exactly what I feel like when I try and play a new cEDH deck.
I wish Crim had held up the goblin cratermaker to threaten to kill Najeela instead of guaranteeing that neither he nor Tomer would be able win. I feel like it would have been a more balanced game. Nonetheless these were really fun to watch and would be happy to see more cEDH content.

There's actually some merit to that move. If Tomer then played Slicer the turn after, Crim would've died to it even earlier like what happened in the last game because he doesn't have a viable board. Either way, with the Blood Moon out, Crim was out of that game. What I will complain about is not playing Drannith turn 1. Even though it looked like it would help Richard, I would've rolled with it.
We finally got an enthusiastic Clash On from Seth, the dozens of us did in fact enjoy that
Cedh week would be better if they not only the read the primers but watched videos of others playing their deck before the game. Missed najeela derevi combos and crim not slamming down his winota game 1 was painful.

About as intellectual as a person who studied Yugioh thinking it was Magic.
The blood moon would have been good if Crim didn’t spite. He might even have won the game but with the tutor and 0 pressure seth got the free win.
Tomer’s play game 2 was objectively correct. Slicer would have been a very decent play, but in that position, with the board and no knowledge of hands, the lock piece was insanely good. Unfortunately salty spite plays were made rather than CEDH-minded plays so the game devolved the way it did.
Really loving the choices of decks this week. They're all pretty common to see at an average cEDH pod, so it'll be nice to see how the "casual" Commander Clash crew pilot them this week. In the past, the crew bring somewhat complicated combo decks that'll want a primer nearby but the ones this week are pretty straightforward.
I don’t know what was funnier, Tomer being super excited to play a deck and forgetting to read the commander or Crim, the man who gets off to shutting ppl down not playing the drannith game 2

Crim , I think you should have done Drannith Magistrate turn 1, in game 2
Its really fun to watch yall navigate the decks, also cool to see a CEDH game in real time, not cut down to just the spells. Dig the slick edits of the CEDH channels but its nice to hear all the politics and banter.
The second "Clash on!" was necessary Seth! Dont you hear the audience cheer🎉
i made a Slicer deck after watching Tomer first use it, it was the terror of my play group for a while. i've retired it for another deck, but i kinda want to bring it back now, since as we saw in this game Tomer just sat back and watched everyone duke it out
I unironically love clash on and never want it to stop.
Slicer adds such a sweet puzzle to all games he is in
Watching Richard paying for a free spell was so painful. Game two screaming at crim cast dranith.
Thinking about the first game a little bit, I was curious if anyone thought that casting Winota at 29:33 would have been a good move or not. It forces Seth to have to use the swords to plowshares that they know about on Winota and not on the stacks pieces. Then Crim can attack Richard thinking that Seth would probably attack Richard and kill him too. Then Seth has to fight through all those stacks pieces while also facing down potential death from a Slicer. Obviously hindsight is 20/20 and we have access to their hands as viewers, but I think even with the information they had, it seems pretty safe and a way to help secure victory.

I luv how Tomer didn't even think to try and play ruination to blow up every land except his mountains.
I know it was absolutely a spite play, but isnt using the cratermaker to make sure you arent run over by slicer in the next turn cycle playing to your outs?
seeing the thought processes from everyone it would be interesting seeing a game where its pseudo two headed giant where each player plays a deck that requires another play keeping someone else in check to win so the idea is each person know who they need to keep alive last to win so they have to balance not letting them get too far ahead but also not to fall behind
Crim on every podcast: I want people to feel the salt, I bath in the salt, live for it. Crim plays against one stax piece: I am the saltiest, butthurt player of all time.
Why complicate your life with breach lines when you can go infinite with your commander and derevi

More then one game!?!??? Oh I love it!
Tomer's hand chops were so funny, best part of the episode.
I've been waiting to find out why blue farm is called that but Richard's explanation at 23:18 doesn't make any sense because tymna and bruse is a mardu deck. Unless he means to tell us there was a mardu cEDH deck called "farm" and blue farm is the variation you get from adding blue to it by subbing out the weaker partner for kraum.

Enjoyed watching you guys play cEDH… but that Blood Moon play in Game 2 is the reason why stax pieces can be so dangerous in the wrong hands
If Seth would of only cast his commander earlier in game one he could of threatened a win with derevi untapping his lands for combat combo win.
Tomer obviously hasn't played with Workshop before bc the opening hand would be great
Game 2, Tomer: Darksteel, Mox pitching blood moon, pyretic ritual, SLICER; Lotus Petal, Commander Plate, Pitch Simian Spirit Guide, EQUIP and ATTACK on turn one! Pretty sure you would have had a lot more fun with this line of play.
Man, this new style of snappy intro is just so nice.
Why didn't tomer play ruination on the first game right before Seth won? If he was worried Seth had a counter that goes against his philosophy of not playing scared lol. Gotta make them have it! That would've been a game winning line, i feel forcing the swords was the wrong move.

Great wins Seth! Glad to see you all having fun playing some of the strongest decks this format has to offer! As a friendly reminder Derevi is there to go infinite with najeela herself! Najeela makes a warrior for every warrior that is declared attacking which she herself is a warrior to start things off! Derevi lets you untap lands on combat damage and if you have all your colors you can order the Derevi triggers to untap your lands and then tap it for the rainbow mana needed to activate najeela. This can be done with a single rainbow land as well by floating the mana between the Derevi untap triggers! Najeela's math is that you only need 6 combats to kill the table if there are no blockers. The summoner's pact you were questioning in Game 2 is actually there so you can get a copy of Derevi for 0 mana for a potential win on the spot. The usual intuition pile is often sevinnes, breach, and LED. This way, no matter what card is chosen you can always at least flash back the sevinnes to get back breach. With enough cards in the GY you can then use LED mana to potentially then use intuition again from the GY to find Brain freeze. What great in Najeela though is your intuition pile can change based on board state or which win (breach or najeela) you are trying for. I've intuitioned for derevi, dockside, and sevinnes as a way to win with najeela or in tough spots you can often tutor for sevinnes, rhystic study, mystic remora to guarantee a card draw engine. Glad to see her perform well and hopefully you had a lot of fun playing her!
