Congratulations to Zack for winning season 15 of RuPaul's Drag Race

Funny how often people overlook esper sentinel being an artifact.. not only here (doesn't trigger cloudstone curio) but with chrome mox as well

I saw that too, even wrote up a comment about why he shouldn't have won. Then I checked back to the ad naus draws and he had a ragavan to pull the combo off legally at least so he still could have won.

Something that’s really cool about Cedh is how some of the most powerful combos leave you ether dead or out of the game (worldgorger, thorical, chain of smog, any underworld breach + LED). It makes for some memorable moments.

What an absurd set of games. Four turbo decks going head-to-head, and a personal favorite of mine, Anje, making an appearance. Great stuff, great plays, fantastic games, and one hell of a game 1.

And the Anya deck won in FABULOUS style to close out the video. Yo, fucking props.

naus into led crack holding prio on the demo tutor was sick! well sequenced zack

Sweet sweet justice game 4, or perhaps revenge. Game 3, Ryan foiled John's win attempt by destroying the wgd in response to the etb, leaving John with no permanents. The next game John stole Ryan's peer to win the game. Love the story arch on this :)

Thank to Zack and his top hand, so we can watch up to four games.

A really great set of games! And having the players take the same seats for all the games was a real quality of life improvement

"This deck seeks to resolve ad naus as fast as possible." *does it on turn 1* well it did exactly what was printed on the tin.

A game with Yennett? I'm in heaven.

Holy smokes, that Cathar Commando... Seems my Pauper favorite has legs in cEDH too when unexpected.

John. I love the discard: draw effects. I used The Locust God to do so and when infinite mana hits, I discard Avacyn's Judgement and make the madness of X equal enough to win.

These games are so entertaining to watch. That turn 1 win was incredible.

God that third game was BRUTAL for John.

LOVE the game 2 Pact so much. People need to do so much more of that.

What an ad naus play. Gotta love when everything just works out.

these games were absolutely crazy, i will say like everyone else though that first game was completely balls out

cathar commando stonks going up after this video, what a fun batch of games!

1:47 Zack with the top deck (or top two cards) for the winning hand! Hinged on having a Black source to imprint on Chrome Mox but it worked!

Holy smokes In that first game he had a god hand lmao. Very impressive

The animations on the cards look so good!!

Ryan's curio loop should not have worked with Esper Sentinel. Curio Triggers whenever a "nonartifact permanent" comes into play so Esper would not be able to return dockside. It is the same reason it would not work with an Ornithopter or Memnite. Pretty sure Ryan has it regardless but is an important note to point out for viewers

Almost pooped my pants seeing Yennett at the table. She’s one of my favorite commanders of all time and I’ve been trying to make a competitive list for a while

I was really happy that John redeemed himself in game 4 after everyone stopped him a few times in game 3 😂

Holy frigging cow! Nice turn 1!!!

That was a pretty good turn 1.

Thassa's Oracle is actually cracked

Best cEDH games ive seen in a long time

Wow great games of CDEH (Competitive Dockside Extortionist Highlander)!

So many games in one video?!? Let’s gooooo

Awesome games! Curious what die are being used to represent the floating mana etc. In the market for some

Gas right out of the gate 🙌

In Game 3, Ryan should have held cathar commando until John pinged down both his opponents, THEN destroyed the dance effectively winning the game.

10:11 John discarded Cabal Pit not cabal ritual

On turn 4 in game 3 when shallow grave was countered by swan song how many cards did Ryan have in hand because if he had the chrome mox and a black card he could have continued the shallow grave with the floating mana from mana crypt (or did I miss something that didn’t allow this)

The luck on game 1 drawing an Ad Naus. Gg lol

4 games in a video, is it xmass yet? great games!

John had the mayhem devil from the peer, but if he didn’t could he have drawn his deck? Rootwalla cloud stone dockside and Anje can bounce rootwalla, activate anje discarding rootwalla and playing free from madness, bounce dockside, drawing a card and untapping anje, repeat?

I had no idea there are so many cards with madness lol

Something I wondered at 8:40 - would it have made sense for John to attack Jeska with Anje on the first turn? (Or maybe you wanted to keep Anje untapped, or maybe you wanted to keep Jeska around thinking that she would deal with other threats?)

You rock here is comment for algorithm

Shawn has a pact of negotiation in his hand that first game, he ain't shit for not playing it.

Can someone explain the stack interaction at 15:00 with worldgorger exiling at the end?

First! Amo os vídeos.

Dat turn one naus tho

Make sure your cedh combo opponents are pile shuffling, fam. Let's ensure they don't just need to mulligan 3 times until they find their clutch of combo cards.

Spoiler Comment: I find it hilarious that the group probably spent more time shuffling than actually playing Game 1. I'd like to think that Zack was the only person to have to shuffle up their deck cuz the rest of the group did nothing. Though realistically, it makes sense to shuffle up again since Zac and Shawn were the only ones who could have free counter spells.
