   Really suprised that you didn’t want to pick up more fatties. You had all that ramp but passed up Terastadon, Sundering Titan, Kozilek and pretty much everything else.

   Would you say Liliana is a cornball planeswalker?

   M3G1 he said you were greedy to risk him having sorceries to deal with your swamp and consequently lose the game in excahnge for not trading away Knight.

   If you accepted KotR trading then you could verdent EOT from the Swamp and have it to pay for Slaughter Pact.

   Basically he pointed out that you valued KotR above possibly losing the game outright even though you basically had the game at that point.

   Great video marlon, I really enjoyed it. I would love it if you could make a few more of these, or perhaps another commander matches

   Hey Marlon,
   that was a good video. Nice to see you enjoying Magic again as I felt the last few videos you were kind of sour on the game.

   That last match was epic–but really I was yelling at the screen when you missed the wolf token which would have won you the match easy, not to mention keep the PW alive.

   Also that photoshop is equally epic.
   Cheers dude.

    This match was actually quite informative for me. I don’t like playing with planeswalkers, because their microtext reminds me too much of the yugioh cards. And they look like yugioh cards. And their names sound like them too. Now I actually kind of know what some of them do, without needing to read it on magiccards dot info.
