Chewie — Wed, 15 May 2013 00:24:42 +0000

Yes, yes, I know everyone’s upset that Cockatrice got C & D’d, but you know what? That’s not going to sour our impression of MTGO, especially from a casual’s perspective. Bringing on the ever enlightening Tom of MTG Radio fame, and Christian from Off Color Cast, a pair of online specialists, we’re going to dispel the myths and show people just what the interwebz has to offer them.

CommanderCast #93 – Season 8 Episode 1 – Marathon Men

Christopher E Otwell — Thu, 06 Dec 2012 14:32:01 +0000

Welcome back.Three weeks have passed and with it, I have been on a ‘vacation’ that consisted of shipping shirts and recording podcasts. The machine at CommanderCast Worldwide Headquarters is one that may never stop: truly, it rumbles forward at the cost of any number of lives, any measure of sanity. The noise-pollution belching, word spewing beast is insatiable and no amount of work can leave it satisfied. This week’s episode sends the forge of Community, Strategy and Technology back to full blast as I am joined by Sean, William and Pat to throw more fuel into the hot fire of the worldwide EDH cipher. This is usually where I put in a lot of talk about practically nothing, but I was fortunate enough to have Sean drop this gem on me, captured during the recording.

CommanderCast #74 – Season 6 Episode 9 – Is It Blasphemous?

Christopher E Otwell — Thu, 28 Jun 2012 02:33:35 +0000

It’s a show you can listen to with your ears: COMMANDERCAST A man who has gone deep into the waters of Canadian EDH that I’m known to tread, our guest this week is Matthew. You’ve heard him on the show before, and hopefully you’re already subscribed to his YouTube channel. It’s an awesome resource where you can take a look at Matthew’s sweet decks and also check out some rather entertaining duel play. This week he’s joined us on the line to engage in some hearty discussion and debate over various elements of this ridiculous format we all enjoy so much, and even had the excellent courtesy to bring a huge range of excellent and interesting topics. I have to provide huge props to him for that, and when you’re done listening to these discussions I’m sure you’ll want to as well. Show notes and pertinent links below. Enjoy. COMMUNITY SEGMENTS 02:48 to 18:28: Free-For-All Roundtable: Colour Identity and Lands: Right now, the colour identity rules in Commander are pretty clear… until you get into lands. Then, we can have a Misty Rainforest putting in serious work in your Stonebrow, Krosan Hero deck. This is… well… a bit odd. It can also be jarring to see Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth in a Linvala, Keeper of Silence deck. Does this produce a strong enough negative effect to worry about? Is there an elegant solution to it, even if we are worried about it? 18:41 to 38:09: Newschool Hosin’: It’s no Boil, but Bojuka Bog is a card of the new style of hoser; pretty boring, low opportunity cost, and totally devastating to certain strategies without much chance to interact with them. Along the same lines, we now have Homeward Path, a land that works in any deck and really puts the boots to theft effects as an entire category of cards. But are these new cards any more fun than older ones? How do we feel about these kind of low-interaction, low-cost hosers? A discussion on armchair card design as it pertains to Commander. STRATEGY SEGMENTS 38:23 to 52:25: Holding the Lead: “The best way to win a game of EDH is to appear the second-strongest.” BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORING If you listen to this show, you’re probably an EDH Professional by now; hell, you might even have a few championships. If you’re in this EXTREMELY elite cadre of Commander players, why spend time farting around acting weak instead of dominating those peons in your playgroup from start to finish? In this strategy segment we detail the ways we put a stranglehold on a game and dominate from start to finish instead of some weak-ass comback victory. TECHNOLOGY SEGMENTS 52:40 to 1:19:10: Wish It Was Legendary: We did this once and Matthew figured this was a good opportunity to run it out again, just for ye olde shits and gigs. In this segment we bring up some creatures that we think would make great Commanders, but are unfortunately not Legendary (for now). We did this segment once back in the day, and you can always listen to that one after this for more ideas. Of course, if you have a reasonable play group, you could probably use some of these guys as Commanders anyway. Byron’s Picks: Knight of the Reliquary, Soltari Guerrillas Donovan’s Picks: Army Ants, Hell’s Caretaker and special bonus Bloodghast (ps SKULLCLAMP) Andy’s Picks: Sengir Autocrat, Izzet Guildmage Matthew’s Picks: Argothian Enchantress, Wake Thrasher OUTTRO 1:19:27 to closing: Outtro: Thanks for listening! •YouTube hub •CommanderCast on Facebook •Off-Color Cast CONTACT INFORMATION •Andy: E-Mail: CommanderCast(at)gmail(dot)com // Twitter: (at)CommanderCast •Byron: E-Mail: surgingchaos19(at)gmail(dot)com // Twitter: (at)surgingchaos •Donovan: Contact via MTGS Forum •Matthew: Contact via YouTube

Do you like oversized cards and new stuff? Then this is the CommanderCast episode for you! Andy delves deep into the world of Planechase 2012 this week, accompanied by Sean for guidance, Will as the neophyte and Calvin as the enforcer (he can even give abstract ideas #bloodymudholefaces). Together this elite team continues the audioscape adventure of CommanderCast across the new horizons provided by this awesome box set of new planes, phenomena, ninjas, and other crap! We also take a quick break from Planechase-related stuff to speak on Rhys the Redeemed briefly but for the most part, this cast is all-Planechase all the time. Show notes and pertinent links below. Enjoy.

German, Texan and Canadian accents combine into a horrifying maelstrom of noise in this episode of CommanderCast! It’s Andy, Brionne, Carlos joined by Dominik of CompletelyCasual.net this week to discuss everyone’s favourite busted format, EDH. On the agenda this week: giving players more authority over the format, mulligans, and the style points trade-up.

Chewie — Thu, 10 May 2012 14:15:20 +0000

Haters beware: CommanderCast returns with a three-person podcast this week spewing more of the same gibberish, just with one less voice! This week Andy is joined by one of the usual suspects in Brionne and the (possibly most) frequent guest beast Cassidy Silver of TCGPlayer fame. The discussions this week include Commander as a ‘side event’, elements of deckbuilding to avoid to exploit hosers, and Sunforger.

It’s the beginning of audience appreciation month and CommanderCast and to kick things off we have a very active member of the CommanderCast community, Thomas, lending us his silky-smooth New Zealand accent and wealth of Commander-related experience and knowledge. With Brionne and Byron filling out the rest of the team, we plunge into a show of entirely audience-generated topics and answer questions like “are Peek effects worthwhile?” and “why is Gaddock Teeg such a dick?” Unfortunately, even we can’t answer that last one.

Did you know CommanderCast has a sort of brother pocast, Off-Color Cast? Well, after this episode, you should have an idea of exactly what that our friends over at OCC are like. When I say Off-Color is like CommanderCast’s brother, I mean it’s your younger brother who spent some time in jail, was ‘around’ for a few years and came back to town asking you for money. But he’s still awesome.

We talk about the title ‘scrub’, Heel decks, red cards that make the colour awesome despite the haters, and of course top it off with some bad cards we love.

This week CommanderCast is back with that hard-hitting INVESTIGATIVE JURNALIZM about your favourite casual fantasy trading card game. This is serious business. Andy and Donovan ask Alex and Gavin of the Commander Rules Committee YOUR questions submitted over several weeks regarding the composition of the RC, their stances on contentious issues, and all kinds of other good stuff.

It’s more of Commander’s realest talk as Andy is back on deck with his elite squad of conversational killers! Carlos, Imshan and Max round out this episode’s panel, making it a very writer-y episode (obviously I am not a writer, I make up DEM WORDZ). But we form like Voltron to produce an episode where we explore that divide between competition, fun and the howling abyss between them. Buzzkill cards, threat assessment, and Reliquary Tower are all debated in this episode.

The final episode of CommanderCast’s crossover month is here, with a surprise guest host. In a way, having Chris Lansdell on a podcast should never serve as a surprise to anybody, but since Jack LaCroix couldn’t make it, Mr. Lansdell was happy to answer the call.

CommanderCast #47 – Season 4 Episode 08 – Crossover Month, Part The First

Christopher E Otwell — Wed, 09 Nov 2011 08:13:22 +0000

Crossover Month is in effect at CommanderCast! This week the podcast features Sean from RedCastWins and Gavin from the Commander Rules Committee. Also joining the Tactical Podcasting Team is Imshan to keep Andy from doing anything… regrettable… on air. Subject matter ranges wide in a two-hour epic that will leave you reeling in a confused state, reduced to a stupor by the sheer LENGTH of the program.

Actual content? How about the centralization of Commander’s rules? Arcum Daggson? The importance of situational awareness? Good cards we hate? There’s something for everyone that isn’t a huge loser on this week’s CommanderCast!

CommanderCast #46 – Season 4 Episode 07 – Feat. Vincent Price

Christopher E Otwell — Wed, 02 Nov 2011 02:08:59 +0000

Captain on deck! This week we have Calvin aka CaptainRedZone from Three to the Face!!! joining us for our weakly-themed Halloween episode. When I say ‘weakly themed’, understand I am not messing around. You will almost certainly forget that we tried to have a theme by the end of the episode, but hey… we tried. We really did. Also on the show I have Byron and Carlos to provide their expertise to the proceedings, so that’s always good. There’s also a special guest joining us from beyond the grave (like that could stop a baller of his statue): Vincent Price, whom many of you may not be familiar with but whatever.

We have a lot to cover this episode. The Reserve List, metagame deck construction, and a Halloween theme deck are all in the scope. This week we also introduce “Captain’s Orders”, a new Technology segment where we design theme decks. This is our first time with it, so as always if you have ideas on how to improve the segment in terms of structure, presentation, or whatever, then let me know. These things take some time to work out.

Also, Gifts Given continues to advance at breakneck pace. Contributions are pouring in from around the world. The lot is getting large enough that I had to move it’s storage location from one corner of my desk to a designated box. That might not sound like much, but we’re talking a volume of cards here that’s pretty substantial. I am going to be taking contributions until December, at which point the whole affair will be going onto eBay to be auctioned for Child’s Play. Start saving up now because some of these joints are going to be ridiculously pimp!

Show notes and pertinent links below. Enjoy.

Andy is joined by Byron, Carlos, and guest Calvin for S4E7 of CommanderCast–the weakly-themed Halloween episode featuring the occasional Vincent Price sound clip because, let’s face it, he’s awesome. Otherwise, business as usual; we tackle a range of topics and hopefully do it in a way that’s informative and entertaining. Reprints, Teysa, Orzhov Scion and a Halloween theme deck are all on the agenda this week.

CommanderCast #45 – Season 4 Episode 06 – Blue Braids Will Drink Your Tears

Christopher E Otwell — Mon, 24 Oct 2011 12:24:10 +0000

A three-man show this week, CommanderCast has Andy hosting Justin and Neale as they continue their investigation of Commander with a W5-style, hard-hitting journalistic approach. The following tough questions are explored:

- Where is the place of fast mana in the format, if it has one at all?
- What are some ways to get your friends excited to play Commander?
- When should you play proactive decks instead of reactive strategies?
- Why should you bother basing a strategy around a single, non-Commander card in your EDH decks?
- Who is Braids, Conjurer Adept, and why is she so awesome?

All this and more in another hard-edged, gritty episode of CommanderCast, where we’re divulging the secrets THEY don’t want you to know!

For more Wrexial-approved content, hit us up at http://www.commandercast.com/, including information on the Gifts Given charity drive.

This week’s CommanderCast is a very special episode. Just like every other one.

I have Justin and Neale aka Wrongwaygoback joining me in our first three-person show of the season. While one might predict the lack of a fourth mic would lead to a DRASTIC drop in quality, we managed to bullshit our way through the hour and a half pretty effectively in my mind. This week’s show is a variety of topics covered in shorter segments than usual, closing out with a single, explosive and extended technology segment where we craft the Braids, Conjurer Adept deck; truly a crack-pipe dream, but a dream nonetheless.

Also this week the Gifts Given charity drive continues to function as an explosive success. Monies are being raised, cards and being mailed, and soon funds will be inbound to the good folks at Child’s Play. As always, more information can be found on the right side of this website by following the link.

SHOW NOTES

00:00 to 02:22: Intro: It’s CommanderCast! What is this show about and who’s on it? In case you didn’t know, we’re going over it again.

Neale’s writings and his website, which is also his name and handle
COMMUNITY SEGMENTS

02:33 to 15:29: Free-For-All Roundtable: Fast Mana: For the purposes of this discussion, we are considering ‘fast mana’ to be cards that are colourless and produce large quantites of mana for minimal investment. The usual offenders are Sol Ring and Mana Crypt, that kind of junk. What is their place is the Commander pantheon and do they belong there in the first place? Are we concerned about the impact of fast mana on Commander’s balance, or we give these mechanically-busted cards a free pass because of other factors?

15:39 to 26:51: Charity Cases: I speak on the contribution people have made to the charity drive and read their messages.

The Gaming Goat, where you can find Matthew’s writings, and Matthew’s YouTube channel
27:03 to 40:34: The Hype Machine: This is a Twitter topic from @JustSomeLurker, who says:

“I love commander, but my friends not so much. They humor me, but I’d like ideas to get them more excited about playing.”

Suggestion one: GET BETTER FRIENDS

Suggestion two: Listen to this segment for some ideas on building excitement about playing EDH with groups of friends who also like other games.
WOOBERG.com, the hook-up for MtG alternative formats
STRATEGY SEGMENTS

40:46 to 56:12: Proactive VS Reactive Strategies: Are you the guy who sits around for forty turns without doing anything, then swoops in and wins games? Are you also the same guy who complains about Armageddon? you don’t have to answer that question (you bastard), but you do represent the dichotomy between the more-commonly-accepted passive playstyle versus the more difficult proactive playstyles common to Commander groups. How does one move from being the person resolving problems to the one issuing the threats, and why should you bother? Why is playing proactive gameplans a good idea when being reactive seems so much easier?

56:23 to 1:10:01: Single Card Strategies: When you build a 99 card singleton deck, some people bank heavily on a single card within, to the point of addressing their deck as, say, a “Doomsday deck”. But how good are these strategies, and what are their risks? Is banking on the durability of any single card out of your other 99 worth it in Commander?

Neale’s 9×7 philosophy
Failures by Design podcast
TECHNOLOGY SEGMENTS

1:10:15 to 1:37:11: Entourage: Braids, Conjurer Adept: In a recent email from Rob, he asked me to help him with his Kaalia deck build. While I advised him to consult some of my cohorts who actually know how to build decks, he ignitied the long-dormant fires of a cardboard crush I have had on Blue Braids. So I figured it’s Entourage time. We’ve constructed a skeleton of a Braids build here with a few directions you can do in (Flash/Bounce, Ula’s Temple of Seabeasts, Braids’ Jail, Wizards Tribal). We certainly enjoyed doing it so if you don’t like it, well, at least I got my jollies.

Justin’s Picks:

Paradox Haze, for more Braids-y goodness per turn
Eon Hub to refuse your opponents upkeeps, with some work
Rush of Knowledge because Braids doesn’t fuck around when it comes to drawing cards
Crystal Seer, to give us an unending ETB trigger and mana sink
Jokulmorder, because hey, fuck it
Treasure Mage, SCIENCE
Omen Machine, because evil sewer grates need a home too
Juxtapose, because your opponents needn’t have fun with their stuff they drop into play
Andy’s Picks:
Winding Canyons+Riptide Laboratory, to Flash Braids into play and then return her to your hand
Sundial of the Infinite to power up your prison lock, play ETB-drawback fatties, and so on
Quest for Ula’s Temple, because hey, why not?
Savor the Moment, since Braids lets you sink thingies into play for FREE
Erratic Portal, Crystal Shard, Linessa, Zephyr Mage, and Barrin, Master Wizard to get your bounce on
Torpor Orb, because other people run too many ETB abilities
Time Warps, because your friends should love you regardless of how you play Magic
Neale’s Picks:
Possessed Portal, because you’re a dick
Great Whale, because it’s blue; deal with it
Djinn of Wishes, since we’re cheating things into play
Ixidron+Contagion Engine, for some SERIAL removal
Lorthos, the Tidemaker, because if you play him for free, you can use the sweet mana available to crush your opponents
Puca’s Mischeif, because that goat is smoking a pipe
OUTTRO

1:37:23 to closing: Outtro: Thanks for listening!

Satisfaction… TO THE CORE

Christopher E Otwell — Thu, 18 Aug 2011 02:23:50 +0000

Nine volunteers, two hosts, and one ridiculously ballin’ podcast… it’s CommanderCast’s second call-in episode! In a rapid-fire roulette of listener topics, we cover a broad range of topics ranging from the art of pimping decks to playing Commander in German pubs. It’s a change of pace with tons of new voices, a battery of awesome ideas, and yet still has that usual Community, Strategy and Technology you expect from the show. A huge thanks to our callers for making our second call-in episode another success!

There’s a ton of awesome links from this podcast. If you don’t check out the full notes over at http://commandercast.blogspot.com/ then you’re totally missing out. There’s all sorts of sweet stuff over there!
