Right, Okay, Well, now 24 00:01:12.480 --> 00:01:16.719 that we've figured all that out. Hey, do you do 25 00:01:16.760 --> 00:01:18.200 you have a topic for today's pre show? 26 00:01:19.560 --> 00:01:21.680 I did have a thought, A really a really legitimate 27 00:01:21.719 --> 00:01:23.000 magic thought. This magic. 28 00:01:23.599 --> 00:01:26.480 This is classic pre show warm up, old school stuff. 29 00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:28.519 Okay, So I was sitting down and I was taking 30 00:01:28.640 --> 00:01:32.239 I took apart Maria uh tap artifact make. 31 00:01:32.200 --> 00:01:35.480 Me Oh yeah, one of our most successful deck techs 32 00:01:35.480 --> 00:01:39.480 and episodes from last year, the Maria and thirteen mox 33 00:01:39.519 --> 00:01:41.680 Diamonds or whatever it was. Yeah, mox Emerald, mox Emerald. 34 00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:43.680 Everybody liked that shit. So I took that thing apart 35 00:01:43.719 --> 00:01:46.079 because it just wasn't doing the doing the gimmick. And 36 00:01:46.159 --> 00:01:48.840 I thought to myself, why didn't it do the gimmick? 37 00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:51.079 Why didn't because it teed all the things to do 38 00:01:51.159 --> 00:01:53.200 the thing, and then it just didn't do the thing. 39 00:01:53.280 --> 00:01:55.200 I thought, you took it apart because people hated it. 40 00:01:55.400 --> 00:01:57.200 No, No, actually it was one of the very few 41 00:01:57.239 --> 00:01:58.959 times I think I've ever played a static orb on 42 00:01:59.000 --> 00:02:01.239 somebody and then we're just immediate the good brun such 43 00:02:01.239 --> 00:02:04.959 a bad guy because you can demonstrate like I'm turning 44 00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:06.680 it off, so it's only gonna take me a few 45 00:02:06.680 --> 00:02:10.280 turns to kill you. Yeah, I have nine seven sevens 46 00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:14.919 and you're untapping one landa turn. I got you. We 47 00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:18.360 are not the same, right, So it's good in that way. 48 00:02:18.400 --> 00:02:20.159 But so I took it apart, like why wasn't it 49 00:02:20.199 --> 00:02:20.599 getting there? 50 00:02:20.599 --> 00:02:21.319 And I figured it out. 51 00:02:21.599 --> 00:02:25.360 Figured it out because when you're doing something janky, kind 52 00:02:25.360 --> 00:02:28.759 of junky, my favorite was doing One of the best 53 00:02:28.800 --> 00:02:31.960 ways to do that is to have your your your 54 00:02:32.000 --> 00:02:36.360 deck plateau like get to the very very top of 55 00:02:36.400 --> 00:02:40.560 its power curve at like in the middle of the game, 56 00:02:40.759 --> 00:02:45.199 not turns, but like in the phase like the beginning, 57 00:02:45.199 --> 00:02:47.960 you have nothing, so you build until you have something, 58 00:02:48.479 --> 00:02:50.680 and then you play the thing that your deck does. 59 00:02:51.319 --> 00:02:53.680 If you can have a janky deck that wins in 60 00:02:53.840 --> 00:02:57.199 the getting set up phase or just by a continuous, 61 00:02:57.319 --> 00:03:01.000 never ending setup phase, the decks just get really really good, 62 00:03:01.080 --> 00:03:05.120 don't they. Example, Omnath Locus of Rage. What does that 63 00:03:05.199 --> 00:03:09.240 deck actually do? What does it actually do? It ramps 64 00:03:09.240 --> 00:03:11.800 to seven and plays Omnath and then it just keeps 65 00:03:11.840 --> 00:03:14.560 on a rampant. All it does is play land. That's it. 66 00:03:14.680 --> 00:03:17.000 My answer was gonna be when you say what does 67 00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:19.759 that deck actually do? I say play lands? Yeah, And 68 00:03:19.840 --> 00:03:23.919 somewhere in that whole situation is there's an omnath that 69 00:03:24.120 --> 00:03:26.120 arrives and he's like, hey, guys, what's going on. We're 70 00:03:26.159 --> 00:03:27.240 playing fucking lands. 71 00:03:27.080 --> 00:03:29.240 Right, Yep, that's all we want to do, right, And 72 00:03:29.280 --> 00:03:31.000 I've noticed there's a couple of decks that kind of 73 00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:34.120 do that. Bellows another really good example where you play 74 00:03:34.159 --> 00:03:37.960 all these janky, fucking shitty enchantments, and the reason that 75 00:03:37.960 --> 00:03:39.800 deck is good is because you get all the benefit 76 00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:42.680 from playing all the jank garbage, but you don't have 77 00:03:42.759 --> 00:03:45.719 to dilute your deck by playing things that take advantage 78 00:03:45.840 --> 00:03:48.800 of the jank garbage, instead of having to play creatures 79 00:03:48.800 --> 00:03:51.039 that are gonna get plus one plus oh and haste 80 00:03:51.080 --> 00:03:53.879 when they attack. I think you play Street Riot. The 81 00:03:53.919 --> 00:03:59.400 Street Riot itself is the right. And I think that 82 00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:02.759 Jenk decks have like a especially now with all the 83 00:04:02.759 --> 00:04:04.840 design space that they've built, I'm sure there's lots more 84 00:04:04.919 --> 00:04:08.319 little spaces you can find, like decks that just win 85 00:04:08.439 --> 00:04:12.680 by drawing cards, not by playing cards by drawing them, 86 00:04:13.039 --> 00:04:15.919 or decks that win by playing the land or by 87 00:04:16.319 --> 00:04:20.959 making the man out, or by playing this just junk 88 00:04:21.240 --> 00:04:24.360 form of whatever. Again, using Bellows example, you can just 89 00:04:24.360 --> 00:04:27.639 play trash enchantments as long as they cost four or more. 90 00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:32.560 They're good, whereas in any other situation, it's like, why 91 00:04:32.600 --> 00:04:35.399 did you even bother with that? Right? 92 00:04:35.480 --> 00:04:37.199 I thought you said you didn't have a topic. 93 00:04:37.560 --> 00:04:39.879 I didn't until I started talking about the thing I 94 00:04:39.920 --> 00:04:40.759 was thinking about today. 95 00:04:40.879 --> 00:04:45.399 Uncle Branda Wax's poetic about Gruel Deck. Yeah Bello one 96 00:04:45.439 --> 00:04:48.040 of our most popular lists from twenty twenty four. And 97 00:04:48.079 --> 00:04:50.079 I can say that now because we're heading into like 98 00:04:50.120 --> 00:04:53.839 the holiday end of year and wrap up. And I 99 00:04:54.439 --> 00:04:56.319 was looking at some of the stats for the business 100 00:04:56.399 --> 00:04:59.720 daddies because you know, they're putting the screws to the goons. Hey, 101 00:04:59.759 --> 00:05:02.720 they're putting our thumbs and screws and dangling our toes 102 00:05:02.720 --> 00:05:07.839 over fire, smacking the bottoms of our feet with cricket mallets. 103 00:05:07.839 --> 00:05:09.319 Man, what are they called? Cricket bat? 104 00:05:09.439 --> 00:05:10.079 Cricket bats? 105 00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:11.279 You get to have all the fun. 106 00:05:11.439 --> 00:05:14.800 Oh okay, well, I'll send me your way next time. 107 00:05:15.439 --> 00:05:17.800 And anyways, Bellow is one of our most popular things. 108 00:05:18.319 --> 00:05:21.480 And it happens to also be a grul deck. Maybe 109 00:05:21.480 --> 00:05:25.079 we should be g Seal Gruel Cookout podcast. 110 00:05:25.480 --> 00:05:27.120 Well, Mria was also popular. 111 00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:32.879 We are not doing a grul deck tomorrow. Gcal also 112 00:05:32.959 --> 00:05:36.079 sounds like a like an engineered food additive or a 113 00:05:36.120 --> 00:05:38.079 preservative as well. Maybe we're not about that. 114 00:05:38.439 --> 00:05:40.120 Today. I saw a picture of one of those like 115 00:05:40.399 --> 00:05:44.000 few food processor machines, like the great big thing that 116 00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:47.160 they use to process whatever it is they make processed 117 00:05:47.199 --> 00:05:49.560 food out of to the food that it's process. 118 00:05:49.319 --> 00:05:51.839 Like a big grinder or a mixer or it. 119 00:05:51.920 --> 00:05:53.120 Just it looks like one of those what do you 120 00:05:53.120 --> 00:05:57.040 call the the science contraption where it's like the big 121 00:05:57.120 --> 00:05:58.680 vial and it's got the liquid in it and it 122 00:05:58.720 --> 00:06:01.439 goes down the swirly to tube and then it goes 123 00:06:01.480 --> 00:06:05.600 into something like an opaque cylinder of some kind and 124 00:06:05.639 --> 00:06:07.759 there's like a little thing at the bottom that like 125 00:06:07.839 --> 00:06:09.759 farts out the patty. 126 00:06:09.959 --> 00:06:11.800 I am, I can imagine what you're talking about. 127 00:06:11.879 --> 00:06:13.279 That's what it looks like. And then it had two 128 00:06:13.279 --> 00:06:14.319 folding shows in front of it. 129 00:06:14.319 --> 00:06:16.160 And that's how Commander Cookout builds decks. 130 00:06:16.360 --> 00:06:19.839 Yes, we just dumped crap into a thing into a tube. 131 00:06:20.519 --> 00:06:24.199 Somebody milks it like a cow. Looks like somebody's jerking 132 00:06:24.240 --> 00:06:24.959 off in reverse. 133 00:06:25.519 --> 00:06:29.360 Yeah, yeah, doing the thing and winning the game. Yes 134 00:06:30.360 --> 00:06:35.120 when Yeah, it's reductive when I say it like that, 135 00:06:35.199 --> 00:06:38.120 But usually there's steps, right and and those are what 136 00:06:38.160 --> 00:06:40.639 we would call phases of a game, like the beginning phase, 137 00:06:40.680 --> 00:06:42.199 the first three or four turns. 138 00:06:41.959 --> 00:06:45.199 Or the setup phase people call it. Beginning phase is 139 00:06:45.279 --> 00:06:48.439 like the phase of a turn, So we can't use that. 140 00:06:48.519 --> 00:06:51.319 But if we say the setup phase of a game 141 00:06:51.920 --> 00:06:54.279 is the first three turns, and you're talking about like 142 00:06:55.160 --> 00:06:59.519 strategies that are that that part of their stick is 143 00:06:59.519 --> 00:07:02.120 something that you do in the setup phase, something that 144 00:07:02.160 --> 00:07:05.360 you do in the main body of the game, and 145 00:07:05.439 --> 00:07:10.279 something that you do in the ending part, the finale 146 00:07:10.319 --> 00:07:12.439 of the game, or like the critical turn or the 147 00:07:12.519 --> 00:07:14.680 alpha strike time of the game. 148 00:07:14.959 --> 00:07:17.600 And I think those are the same thing, right if 149 00:07:17.600 --> 00:07:18.720 you're just doing the one thing. 150 00:07:18.879 --> 00:07:22.240 Oh yeah, I think that lands decks are like that 151 00:07:22.399 --> 00:07:27.000 because that is the main resource of the game. Is 152 00:07:27.040 --> 00:07:31.360 it called our June, the Shifting Flame, the Teffer's puzzle 153 00:07:31.399 --> 00:07:32.439 box guy, yep, every. 154 00:07:32.279 --> 00:07:36.199 Time you play a spell, you puzzle box yourself yourself. 155 00:07:36.319 --> 00:07:39.120 I feel like that one does that a little bit 156 00:07:39.759 --> 00:07:43.360 in that, like you want to be drawing as many 157 00:07:43.399 --> 00:07:46.399 cards as you can, so if you're if your commander 158 00:07:46.480 --> 00:07:49.600 and your deck is made to do that, like if 159 00:07:49.639 --> 00:07:51.959 everybody in your deck is a one drop cantrip, that's 160 00:07:52.000 --> 00:07:55.680 like scry and then puzzle box, cry and then puzzle box, 161 00:07:55.759 --> 00:07:59.120 and then every single time you cast as a means 162 00:07:59.120 --> 00:08:01.199 to puzzle box, you get to scry and set up 163 00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:03.639 the next things. Like, I think, I think that's one. 164 00:08:03.560 --> 00:08:05.000 That'd be a good one. I actually had ours do 165 00:08:05.079 --> 00:08:07.079 it for a while. Yeah, heart, way harder than you thought. 166 00:08:07.079 --> 00:08:10.560 I Oh, dude, you killed yourself every single time I've 167 00:08:10.600 --> 00:08:13.399 played against you in that deck. Actually I only think 168 00:08:13.399 --> 00:08:16.720 it's two times, but well, dred percent of the time 169 00:08:16.720 --> 00:08:19.399 you played that deck, you actually killed yourself and there's 170 00:08:19.439 --> 00:08:21.879 nothing that you could even do to stop it. It's like, oh, 171 00:08:22.000 --> 00:08:24.439 this isn't to may and oh I can't do this, 172 00:08:24.639 --> 00:08:27.639 and I have no cards in my library goops, and 173 00:08:27.759 --> 00:08:30.040 I have a spell on this deck, so I guess 174 00:08:30.079 --> 00:08:34.159 I have to draw seven. I wish it would at 175 00:08:34.200 --> 00:08:37.600 least I think. I think creature types that like, I'm 176 00:08:37.639 --> 00:08:39.879 thinking elf ball is like that. What do you how 177 00:08:39.879 --> 00:08:41.679 do you win? I'm just gonna cast every elf in 178 00:08:41.679 --> 00:08:44.799 my deck? Well, what does everyone do makes me mana 179 00:08:44.879 --> 00:08:47.600 and makes more elves or makes my elves bigger? Yes, 180 00:08:47.759 --> 00:08:51.279 I think goblins are like that, which is funny because 181 00:08:51.360 --> 00:08:54.360 murphoken zombies like the other two kind of classic tribes. 182 00:08:54.480 --> 00:08:57.879 Soldiers maybe soldiers is kind of like that, but but 183 00:08:57.919 --> 00:09:01.039 I don't think Murpholken zombies are like zombies don't really 184 00:09:01.039 --> 00:09:02.759 care what you're doing because they're just gonna do what 185 00:09:02.799 --> 00:09:06.519 they do because they can come back. And Murpho only 186 00:09:06.600 --> 00:09:08.879 care what you do, so they can stop it to 187 00:09:08.919 --> 00:09:09.600 do their own thing. 188 00:09:09.639 --> 00:09:11.879 And they kind of suck. We can say that. Still, 189 00:09:11.879 --> 00:09:14.000 do you think I think they do. 190 00:09:14.720 --> 00:09:17.480 The classic tribes? Okay, let's rank them. This is cool. Okay, 191 00:09:17.600 --> 00:09:19.159 So you think Murpho probably. 192 00:09:18.840 --> 00:09:21.360 Five of the five that we've talked about. 193 00:09:21.559 --> 00:09:23.480 Okay, but you think goblins are number one? 194 00:09:23.639 --> 00:09:25.399 No, no, no, I think elves number one. 195 00:09:25.399 --> 00:09:26.720 Elves okay, elves one. 196 00:09:26.600 --> 00:09:28.919 Because they can they proliferate themselves. 197 00:09:28.919 --> 00:09:29.559 You can have one. 198 00:09:29.639 --> 00:09:31.799 You can have an opening hand with two man of 199 00:09:31.799 --> 00:09:34.440 elves and one forest and never draw another. 200 00:09:34.159 --> 00:09:36.600 Forest, yes, and be ahead for the whole game. And okay, 201 00:09:36.639 --> 00:09:39.840 this is funny. I could describe my goblin deck by 202 00:09:39.919 --> 00:09:41.720 saying it's like an elf ball. 203 00:09:41.559 --> 00:09:44.279 Deck exactly, and that's why Elf is one. 204 00:09:44.320 --> 00:09:45.000 Okay, Elf one. 205 00:09:45.039 --> 00:09:47.639 I would probably say zombies two, zombie two. I say 206 00:09:47.720 --> 00:09:50.559 zombiees two because they have like the most recursion, they 207 00:09:50.559 --> 00:09:52.679 have the most variety of things you can play, and 208 00:09:52.679 --> 00:09:55.440 they're the easiest to fit into a combination. 209 00:09:56.200 --> 00:09:59.879 You know what, I'm biased, I'm biasing myself and saying 210 00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:01.600 it has to be mono colored, like these are the 211 00:10:02.200 --> 00:10:03.759 four colors or the five colors. 212 00:10:03.799 --> 00:10:05.720 Even then, I would still say that the fact that 213 00:10:05.720 --> 00:10:08.120 they have so much recursion and they become so large 214 00:10:08.120 --> 00:10:10.559 and so difficult to deal with in most cases, I 215 00:10:10.559 --> 00:10:12.480 would still I would still ranked them above goblins. You 216 00:10:12.559 --> 00:10:16.159 take them, I think then goblins number three, and then 217 00:10:16.240 --> 00:10:19.399 soldiers are number four, four, and focus at number eight. 218 00:10:20.279 --> 00:10:22.600 Oh, i would put soldiers at like number fifteen. 219 00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:26.679 No, I'd put because they're humans, humans, most of those soldiers. 220 00:10:26.879 --> 00:10:29.519 Oh, and you get like a battle cry or like 221 00:10:29.600 --> 00:10:32.080 a double ah. No, I guess you gotta go out 222 00:10:32.080 --> 00:10:35.039 of mono white if you want like double combat triggers. Yes, 223 00:10:35.159 --> 00:10:37.279 Like I'm thinking of what's the one that Smitty plays, 224 00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:41.679 It's it's it's Mardo colors. He gets double combat triggers, 225 00:10:41.720 --> 00:10:44.679 and he plays the other guy that also does that, right, No, 226 00:10:44.759 --> 00:10:45.240 because he's. 227 00:10:45.120 --> 00:10:47.919 Got yeah, I play the green Yeah. 228 00:10:48.000 --> 00:10:50.519 It's funny that those two are so similar, but they 229 00:10:50.519 --> 00:10:51.080 are different. 230 00:10:51.200 --> 00:10:53.879 They're like identical, but they. 231 00:10:53.759 --> 00:10:54.440 Do a different thing. 232 00:10:54.480 --> 00:10:56.480 We've had this conversation they do they do do it, 233 00:10:56.480 --> 00:10:58.919 They helmet different, They tell the same deck, but do 234 00:10:59.000 --> 00:11:01.000 different things themselves. I like better. 235 00:11:01.440 --> 00:11:03.360 I can't believe you put goblins number three. 236 00:11:03.559 --> 00:11:05.720 I do well. I'm trying to be objective. I'm trying 237 00:11:05.759 --> 00:11:07.279 to be a journalist up in here. 238 00:11:07.399 --> 00:11:09.519 I feel like you're just servicing me because you know, 239 00:11:09.559 --> 00:11:11.279 I play model black zombies. 240 00:11:11.000 --> 00:11:19.480 And above Murpholk. I would put cats, crabs, beasts, maybe 241 00:11:19.879 --> 00:11:24.840 beasts good, maybe dragons, probably dinosaur mono. 242 00:11:24.559 --> 00:11:26.679 Still because a lot of these tribes you can't play 243 00:11:26.720 --> 00:11:26.840 in them. 244 00:11:27.039 --> 00:11:29.679 Oh yeah, in mono color, Yeah, you know, on an. 245 00:11:29.759 --> 00:11:32.919 Around or Kindred's sorry to everybody who's offended by that word. 246 00:11:33.159 --> 00:11:36.519 Uh what else would probably? I mean probably scarecrows too. 247 00:11:36.639 --> 00:11:38.759 Probably you're just being facetious. 248 00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:40.840 No, I'm I mean that. I mean that I would 249 00:11:40.919 --> 00:11:44.279 rather play Scarecrows than I would rather see somebody else 250 00:11:44.320 --> 00:11:44.799 play them too. 251 00:11:44.919 --> 00:11:47.080 That's not what we're being objective about. Those not which 252 00:11:47.080 --> 00:11:50.039 one would rather play, which one is objectively the most powerful? 253 00:11:50.080 --> 00:11:52.240 Like which one's gonna win a tournament if everybody got 254 00:11:52.279 --> 00:11:54.080 to play one creature type only. 255 00:11:53.919 --> 00:11:57.759 Elves else, Yes, yeah, you're probably right. 256 00:11:57.879 --> 00:12:00.320 And if you get to add black in there, though, then. 257 00:12:00.240 --> 00:12:02.120 Also elves, that's a good deck bill elves. 258 00:12:02.360 --> 00:12:07.200 Yeah, but you only get to play one color, only 259 00:12:07.240 --> 00:12:09.639 one color colors. That would be very bad. 260 00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:10.960 That would be a very bad deck. 261 00:12:11.000 --> 00:12:13.120 Can you even make a deck? Are there legendary slivers 262 00:12:13.120 --> 00:12:15.879 that aren't five colors? Oh yeah, I can't play it. 263 00:12:15.919 --> 00:12:17.000 No, can't can't play that one. 264 00:12:17.039 --> 00:12:19.679 You'd have to play some non sliver as your commander, 265 00:12:20.320 --> 00:12:21.679 so stupid. 266 00:12:22.200 --> 00:12:24.279 Believe it. Or I've tried that with two color decks. 267 00:12:24.279 --> 00:12:27.240 I've tried doing like two colors slivers just to kind 268 00:12:27.240 --> 00:12:29.279 of see, and the only one that I could kind 269 00:12:29.320 --> 00:12:32.039 of make work was green and white slivers, because then 270 00:12:32.080 --> 00:12:33.919 that's we're all like, you're kind of power pumpers and 271 00:12:33.919 --> 00:12:35.600 you get double striking tramp and all that stuff. 272 00:12:35.600 --> 00:12:37.320 Oh yeah, just like random stuff. 273 00:12:37.480 --> 00:12:40.200 But when you actually sit down and look at it 274 00:12:40.240 --> 00:12:43.679 and what does it do? It was any other green 275 00:12:43.720 --> 00:12:47.039 and white token strategy, but a little worse because you 276 00:12:47.080 --> 00:12:49.960 didn't have anything that kind of just generally affected all 277 00:12:50.000 --> 00:12:52.159 of your creatures and your tokens and stuff, and you 278 00:12:52.279 --> 00:12:54.759 still had to play all the bullshit changelings and all that. 279 00:12:54.960 --> 00:12:57.440 Yeah, going back to your earlier point about not having 280 00:12:57.480 --> 00:13:00.919 to dilute what you're doing and just do it. Slivers 281 00:13:00.919 --> 00:13:03.360 are I think the creature type that does that. If 282 00:13:03.519 --> 00:13:06.559 I don't have access to five colors worth like two 283 00:13:06.720 --> 00:13:10.600 hundred different slivers, I don't have access to maybe enough, 284 00:13:10.639 --> 00:13:13.440 and I got to put things in that service, the 285 00:13:13.440 --> 00:13:16.000 things that I do have but don't build like a 286 00:13:16.039 --> 00:13:20.000 bigger base and taller pyramid like slivers do. Exactly. You 287 00:13:20.039 --> 00:13:23.759 know what that's that's gonna come up on tomorrow's deck tech. Yes, 288 00:13:24.279 --> 00:13:29.679 where where I searched up on scryfall a combination of 289 00:13:30.240 --> 00:13:32.480 both of the two creature types that we're looking at 290 00:13:32.879 --> 00:13:35.759 in the color combination that we're looking at, and there's 291 00:13:35.840 --> 00:13:38.799 one hundred and thirty four hundred and thirty nine one 292 00:13:38.840 --> 00:13:41.519 hundred and thirty something. Sure is that enough? 293 00:13:42.080 --> 00:13:42.360 Yes? 294 00:13:42.639 --> 00:13:47.360 You think so? Yes? And I know that like generally 295 00:13:47.440 --> 00:13:50.200 not with this creature type, but generally is that enough? 296 00:13:50.440 --> 00:13:52.080 Generally? I would say yes. I think if you have 297 00:13:52.159 --> 00:13:54.679 over one hundred different options, the odds of you being 298 00:13:54.720 --> 00:13:57.679 able to find thirty or forty, I'm gonna say good. 299 00:13:57.679 --> 00:13:59.519 I'm gonna say serviceable ones ones. 300 00:13:59.360 --> 00:14:01.120 It work in the deck. Yeah, they don't need to 301 00:14:01.159 --> 00:14:03.759 be good if if the summation of them is greater 302 00:14:03.879 --> 00:14:04.480 than the parts. 303 00:14:04.960 --> 00:14:06.600 This is a situation where you're gonna end up with 304 00:14:06.639 --> 00:14:08.000 a bunch of them that you're just gonna kind of 305 00:14:08.000 --> 00:14:09.559 take out because it's like, well, I'm only playing this 306 00:14:09.600 --> 00:14:12.080 one because it's a four four for three. It doesn't 307 00:14:12.279 --> 00:14:14.240 do anything else, But I'll get rid of it because 308 00:14:14.279 --> 00:14:15.279 it's the creature time. 309 00:14:15.399 --> 00:14:17.519 Yeah, like when dinosaurs first came out, and it's like, 310 00:14:17.559 --> 00:14:19.639 here's the one that's all flavor text, but it's a 311 00:14:19.720 --> 00:14:23.240 five to six for six. Yeah, at uncommon because it's 312 00:14:23.240 --> 00:14:27.279 all that we have and I needed like a nineteenth dinosaur. Yeah, 313 00:14:27.320 --> 00:14:29.240 exactly what many dinosaurs are there? Now? Oh? 314 00:14:29.279 --> 00:14:32.879 Fuck? Too many? Too many? Is that a BBO? I 315 00:14:32.960 --> 00:14:33.519 just had. 316 00:14:36.000 --> 00:14:38.159 T talk a little to walk us through the BBO 317 00:14:38.279 --> 00:14:41.559 that's coming out on well last week, which one? 318 00:14:42.000 --> 00:14:42.639 Which one is this? 319 00:14:42.759 --> 00:14:42.960 Is it? 320 00:14:43.000 --> 00:14:44.799 The Is this the spook Haven one? 321 00:14:45.120 --> 00:14:45.360 Yes? 322 00:14:45.519 --> 00:14:49.600 Hell yeah, the it's not gloom Haven, Dusk Worn Dusk Warn. 323 00:14:49.759 --> 00:14:52.240 So I went out and I decided to make a 324 00:14:52.279 --> 00:14:53.960 little cinematic intro. 325 00:14:53.799 --> 00:14:56.320 For myself to have a cinematic podcast. 326 00:14:56.360 --> 00:14:58.559 Didn't have a whole box to open because I only 327 00:14:58.600 --> 00:15:02.279 had the Collector Box, then the Nightmare Bundle yep. So 328 00:15:02.559 --> 00:15:04.679 I decided I would try and fill time by making 329 00:15:04.720 --> 00:15:06.960 a little movie of myself. It was really hard because 330 00:15:07.000 --> 00:15:09.840 my phone is from twenty seventeen and the camera sucks. 331 00:15:09.879 --> 00:15:11.840 The memory is too small, so I had to wait 332 00:15:11.879 --> 00:15:13.279 and get some help. And I had to do it 333 00:15:13.360 --> 00:15:15.720 like in the daytime instead of in the night time, 334 00:15:15.759 --> 00:15:18.440 and I couldn't go outside, and it was the whole thing. 335 00:15:18.879 --> 00:15:20.759 But we got it done and I'm. 336 00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:24.519 Very happy with thro.
