TTC - Born of the Gods Impressions

[Graham]

Now that the full set is out, the LRR crew goes through some cards that look extra spicy!

[GNRC_SRNM]

Why is Cam so quiet in this? Mic problems, or was he just too far away?

[RedNightmare]

Wasn't that mentioned literally at the start of the podcast? Are you trolling sir/madam? -_-

Actually for Champion of Stray Souls you have to have its targets before activating his ability, so even though you sacrifice the creatures as part of the cost they won't be in the graveyard in time.

countless battles for 1ww with nothing else on the board gets 2 +1/+1's there is one creature, it, and one enchantment, it. When they are on the battlefield as a creature, they are a creature, and a enchantment.

if there is one creature on the board and you bestow countless battles on it, the creature will get 2 +1/+1 counters. because when it is bestowed it is a enchantment, not a creature.

Bestow creatures, are always enchantments, they are creatures in addition to enchantments if they are being cast as a creature, or on the battlefield not bestowed.

Couple things: It doesn't get/give +1/+1 counters just gives +1/+1 bonuses minor but important if they kill him as an aura. Also it counts auras on the battlefield you control not enchantments you control so if you play him by himself with nothing else on the battlefield it will only be a 1/1.

[TastyArsenic]

just one thing, nyx isnt the underworld.

[Omnicrat]

Can someone write subtitles for when Cam is talking? The world* will thank you.

*For the purposes of this post world is a term restricted to a minimum of me.

I just… I can't…
I knew no one would read the YouTube description so I put it IN the podcast and… I don't get it.

Although I know this form of card overlay requires more work in post, I like it, because it means the four people present are all able to keep the conversation flowing, without one of them having to spend all their time showing us the cards. I know in this case you were "already in there" to do what you could for Cam's audio, but I still appreciated it. The past couple podcasts I paused every time somebody mentioned a card to go look it up. That said, I understand if you'd rather have the overlay done live to save time.

"Hero of Iroas... is a bear"
[looks at art]
Yeah, I think most people would classify that man as a bear...

Spirit of the Labyrinth doesn't completely shut down draw-based cards, cause it does mean that each player is still allowed to draw a card on each of their opponents' turns.

Gild is even sweeter than you guys were talking

(if you addressed this I apologize, I had got just that far and now I have to run...)

I... apparently didn't pay attention there. Embarrassing.

Ahh, yep, I didnt read the card carefully enough, I thought it was +1/+1 for enchantments and Creatures, not auras. My bad.

[deathjavu]

An overlooked use of Eye Gouge- it kills activated Mutavaults at instant speed, because Mutavaults are cyclopses.

Heroes Podium is also gross in a Captain Sisay Commander Deck, which is exactly where I'm gonna put it.

[Lancer]

Storm would *not* multi-trigger heroic, because you only cast one copy of the stormed spell, and the rest are copied directly onto the stack.

Forgive me, I was going to say "to be fair, the YouTube description doesn't help for people who listen to the audio from iTunes", but then I realised, you probably hate it when people listen on iTunes instead of watching on your YouTube channel, don't you? So instead I am sorry.

Oh gosh no, I don't mind at all.

For some, this is an audio-only podcast and that's fine! That's why we still offer audio!
So, to be fair, I included that clip for their benefit too.

And STILL I bet you there was confusion

[zombub]

I just assume that everything Cam says that we can't hear is hilarious, it's a fairly safe bet.

It's a fairly safe bet.
