If Beezy gets any skinnier he's going to turn into a 0/1 with shadow.

If you’re in a black/green deck, then Urborg Repossession is a great card. Gets you back a creature and any permanent, then randomly gains you life. Great budget card as well, it’s 5 cents

Sister Hospitaller is Phyrexian Delver but it gains you life for one more mana, and it’s a budget bomb

I think Noxious Revival is a great card at all levels. Even a lower casual levels, oops my bomb got countered or milled, gonna get it back for 1G or 2 life right before my turn. Or oops I can’t find more lands early on, gonna get back my fetchland or ramp spell. Extremely versatile just like other cards you were grading better for that exact reason.

Card I like a lot is “You happen on a glade”. It’s got ramp and recursion to your hand. The versatility is what I use it for

basic lands. dont forget those i heard they were good

I just added 'Sevinnes Reclamation' unto my 'Awaken the Blood Avatar' deck cause i have a lot of permanents it can recur. I didnt think i would use it so much a a ramp spell xd. It is also awesome that it can bring back 'Chandra, Acolyte of Flame' casue she lets you play instants or sorcerys from grave.

I'm so glad you put Serra Paragon on your list. I put it in Roon to test it and see if it was deserving of a spot. After a single game it is now a staple of my deck. If you can flicker it completely nullifies the downside of having to exile. Having the added bonus of getting back key cards like Thousand Year Elixer, Halo Fountain, and Quest for Renewal is well worth having to pay the mana and not just getting them back for free like most other Recursion effects. Great list and my favorite topic in a video so far.

"Before my turn, Cyclonic Rift (overload), Noxious Revival targeting Cyclonic Rift. Don't worry table, it's card disadvantage..."

I’m not sure what I enjoy more, your analysis of magic cards, or your quirky improv comedy for those shirts lol 😂

Although there was so many different effects to talk about, I do think Season's Pass deserves a shout out in this video. 6. Mana two of which are green to return as many cards as you want from your grave to your hand, the only caveat is that it can only be one of each mana value is really good. It even puts itself to the bottom of your library rather than going to the graveyard, so it's an additional little bonus to protect itself from other players trying to cast it. And I've had great success with it with decks that have it in mind and decks that don't necessarily care that it's in there. I had a Jund control deck that I built with that as a "draw engine" and I was always getting back 4 - 7 cards every time I casted it and it's currently in my Gruul midrange deck and just knowing it's in there is a safety insurance that I can get my cards back at a later date. Just make sure you don't have to discard your hand at the end step for obvious reasons

Undead Butler...I have to say I've been listening to you both sing the praises of this, so I threw it in decks. It works. I've never seen it NOT do something. I love janky cards like this that aren't at all splashy but do a job well.

Love to see you guys talk about exile/graveyard bounceback to hands cards for my 63rd birthday AND 29th Magic anniversary playing!

Tortured existence in Sefris is amazing I love venturing in the dungeon at each players turn

Free Moxfield AD? LOL

Wrenn and Six in my Omnath deck is an absolute beast.

What I love about the T-shirts is that they are art and not bold font of 'brand name'.

Strands of night: "pay 2 life sac a swamp and put target creature from your graveyard in to play." I kept thinking; now they are going to mention it but it never got it's props. It's one of my favorite repeatable recursion effects on a budget. "Witch of the moors" never crossed my radar. I have to have it now. Great list

Perennial Behemoth is another decent recursion piece for green decks. While it's more mana than Ramunap Excavator, it provides a beefier body, and the unearth provides another form of recursion for it.

Would underworld breach also fit this category? It let's you replay anything from the yard of course, but it also tends to end the game on the spot for basically 2 mana.

Skullwinder - the better Eternal Witness. Has deathtouch and can be used for politicking.

I run Snapcaster in my Anhelo deck. A 2/1 body to casualty and get a spell back is a win.

I like to attach Blade of Selves to Treasury Thrull and get (on average) 3 artifacts/creatures/enchantments back from the graveyard per attack. Even if Treasury Thrull dies in battle, with the theme of the deck, I'll get it back.

I had a game with Lurrus, an animate dead, and an opponent with Uro, Titan of Nature's Wrath in their graveyard. Got to reanimate their uro twice and get a free growth spiral +3 life every turn after in black/white.

Shout out to Lurrus being nuts! I have him as a Commander and is one of my current favorites to play! A bunch of innocuous small creatures, but when combined with the multiple value engines, death drains, and mass reanimation, it can get real fierce when firing on all cylinders!

1:03 Beezy wakes up as Sarah McLachlan 🎵IN THE AAAAARMS OF THE ANGEL🎵

Gotta put respect on my boy Dakkon, Shadow Slayer Super specific Esper colors but he ults super easily and it's insane for comboing off

Appreciate you both! Lots of love from Australia as always!

What happened with Moxfield? Did they stop sponsoring you guys?

I will say timeless witness can be pretty good token decks, especially ones that can populate

Joe cherries always looking like he’s about ready to nod off

I like young necromancer for budget reanimation on a stick

Nothing like casting Agadeem's Awakening right after a board wipe 😊

Emeria is still useable in 2-3 color decks as long as you maximize on landtypes

Meren in the 99 is such an underrated inclusion. I play it in my 4cmc matters Prossh deck with Fleshwrither. To be able to Transfigure into Meren and then sac however many Kobalds to ensure you are getting the creature you want most back is way better then people expect it to be. You can even return Fleshwrither and do it again next turn.

I get torn between just straight up card draw and recursion, mostly because the new focus on graveyard hate can basically counter or nullify your recursion spells. That said, counter spells can nullify your draw spells, so...I've just had more than a couple times where I get my graveyard exiled in response to trying to recur something, and its like, "YOOOWTCH..."

awesome to see you guys still going! building momentum and video quality better. good job

Here's a fun one, Wheel of Sun and Moon. Cast this on yourself and everything just cycles back into your deck. Particularly hilarious with Rest in Peace effects as it bypasses your graveyard.

I love Timeless Witness in my Grist deck where there is a good chance I will mill it into the graveyard. In Tayam, however I prefer Eternal Witness.

I know it’s more late game but eerie ultimatum has worked amazing for my black green white deck! Out of nowhere I bring back every creature in my graveyard.

Wow these guys know how to make you not forget to add THIS to your commander decks!

Seasons past is in most of my green decks, card seems really underrated

I can't believe you put Trash for Treasure but skipped over the two best creatures. Goblin Welder, the OG and best way to recur artifacts on a creature, and Goblin Engineer. They both do so much work in getting back key artifacts and Goblin Engineer even puts the one you want to get back in your graveyard. I use it to find and recur Skullclamp in my Krenko deck all the time. Shigeki needs more recognition and I'm glad you agree. It does everything a deck built around recursion wants to do and all in one card. It ramps, it mills, and it recurs cards back to hand. What more could you ask for. Also Tezzeret, Master of the Bridge is how I go off with Displacer Kitten in my Alela Artifact themed deck. It loops Lotus Petal for infinite mana and Chromatic Star / Sphere for infinite draw if you have a cost reduction effect.

Amazing topic! After reading some budget commander brews from Tomer from MTGGoldfish, I started to put around 2 recursiom cards in all my decks. Happy to see you guys touching on this topic too.

Ruling... A mdfc is its front while in the graveyard and counts as the front unless it's played as a land, via Crucible effect. Which means Shigeki can't see Bala Ged Recovery, but Pull from the Deep can? Am I missing something? I have been playing and using mdfcs with this restriction.

Noxious revival is the best version of these cards (in regards to getting it to hand) It’s instant speed, free and can be tacked on to any draw effect, or just before you draw for turn in order to get it to hand.

Beezy with that iconic voice

These are some very good cards to add to my Commander decks. Thanks for the video Nitpicking Nerds.

One recursion spell for artifacts and enchatments that I like a lot is Dance of the Manse, even ignoring the fact that you cards can turn into 4/4. Brilliant Restoration may be expensive and the cost is restrictive, but I like it too. I could cast it even in my 3-colors deck. Mainly because it is a late game card that you probably are going to cast after turn 7.

If beezy gets any skinnier he's gonna look like Larry Nevins

Eldrazi

Feathers is a deck I don’t need recurrsion for. I’m starting to put more and more into my other decks.

Where's brought back? Possibly the best white recursion spell..

Damn. Those are nice shirts.

Can't relate too much, my favorite thing about magic is creature recursion. Never have a way to bring back instants or sorceries tho.

Pair-O-Dice Lost is really good! A bit costly but it can get so many things back

Thanks for the great video guys ! Im trying out Tamiyo, Collector of Tales in this slot for me ❤️

This is one of your most helpful videos guys! Thank you!

23:55 no respect for my champion Skullwinder? He is the best E-Witness effect out there. Actually has a relevant body and you can trade the opponent effect for favors or make the game more fun by fueling the player who is behind.

My absolute auto include recursion is shigeki and it’s loops with bala ged/regrowth, in combo with timeless witness, I find I play timeless over eternal because it being able to recur itself is worth the extra mana to me

I would also add Lier as recursion method for instant/sorceries

Lord Windgrace is good recursion on a planeswalker.

Moxfield ad at 15:15 👀

Let me guess they’re going to tell me to run grave hate

I once had a good time in a round of Commander until another guy at the table brought out Archfiend of Ifnir with Tortured Existence on the board...

Beezy saying he doesn't like Mimic Vat makes me think he hasn't played against a Syr Konrad deck that uses it. 1 board wipe when you have a Mimic Vat can let you stack triggers in a way that'll double Syr Konrad's triggers and very likely win you the game on the spot.

I never woulda guessed 10:58

Great vid!

You forgot to mention Academy Rectorrrrrrrrr

And the award for most cryptic title goes to...

Takenuma baby! Victimise baby! Stom of souls baby!

More Amber! Lets go!!!

I don't understand why you don't like noxious revival.. It seems like, by far, the best card in its class.

Find/Finality, crystal dragon, tlincalli hunter, phyrexian reclamation

I Always run Underworld Breach in all red decks.

Skullwinder is better than Eternal Witness - controversial opinion. There’ll almost always be someone with nothing good in their graveyard and even if there isn’t you can make deals in your favour with the person you choose. Don’t attack me with that and I’ll bring it back for you etc And that’s without even mentioning the deathtouch blocker you get after.

I like running the trifecta of Volrath's Stronghold, Hall of Heliod's, and Academy Ruins in my Alela deck.

I focus on recursion more than draw 🙃

I take it they lost Moxfield sponsorship?

Does every commander deck need field of the dead?

Forever young, Grist the Hunger Tide! That is all

As the worlds biggest graveyard fan, I approve of this video

Mission Briefing is NOT better than Snapcaster Mage even in Commander. Snapcaster is a creature, so avoids cards like Fierce Guardianship and Swan Song, and the ability is an ETB so you can have repeated recursion with things like Conjurer's Closet or Thassa. It also doubles up with Panharmonicon and Elesh Norn Mother of Machines for extra value, you can flicker it with Cloudshift and Eerie Interlude to get more spells back, and last but not least, you can chump block with it! Saying Mission Briefing is better than Snapcaster Mage is like saying Regrowth is better than E Witness!

To this day it isn't known to mankind if Heliod actually owns a place called "Hall of Generosity" or if it is maybe someone elses hall that was just named after Heliod, to honor his generosity. I guess we'll never figure that out. Just want to make sure Joe doesn't upset the actual owner.

My guess for three topic of the video before it starts is that you need win conditions.

Is there a good background to enhance Gale in this mode?

I would love to talk to you guys, maybe a collab, idk if you have ever seen my stuff,

is it really wrong to say damn in a magic video when it's an actual card

Golgari players are like: I already play 20x recursion, how much more do you want me to add?

donna if i'm just seeing things and looking too much into things but Cherries looks buggered. Hope you keeping well and staying good n healthy

Silly noobs! :P You forgot my favorite card of all time "Gaea's Blessing", any deck I make with green this is the first card I put in.

None of my playgroup plays removal or counterspells so more often then not my recursion fails

Springleaf avengers return permanents every turn and sword light shadow!!!!

Nonbo of reanimating artisan of kozilek without realizing it’s a cast trigger and not an etb

Why no "Regrowth"?

I might have miss it, but it seem you missed a resurrection white spell... Called resurrection. Old one but I love it.

Why they them?

I Always forgot sol ring😂

Could someone tell me what happened to moxfield?

Umm.. 12:30
