Here's a unique video idea: "Things you need to keep track of every turn" (because some obscure card might require you to remember it accurately).

Another episode of my favorite Magic series on KZfaq

There are so many overrated and underrated cards out there, but some day the nerds will be the most popular channel on youtube and then finally everything will be properly rated!

Beezy looks taller. Where are his glasses? I liked Jon and hope you bring him back for game play and whenever one of you needs a day off

I’m gonna support you guys because I’ve been following since the beginning! Love seeing your base grow and the content get better and better. Much love !

Halfway through now, these are pretty solid opinions! Thanks for the great info!

Explosive vegetation is the green staple that has been dunked on most thoroughly in the past 2 years

I’m glad to see y’all are growing and doing what you love to do for a living. Live your dream guys!

Ramunap Excavator has the upside of getting got by green sun's zenith and finale, so I would say they're almost even. It doesn't matter much since if you're playing one it's probably one of the best cards in your deck so you may as well play the other.

Evolution Sage is my favorite card in my Windgrace deck. I constantly have the threat of ultimating and blowing up 6 things. My opponents hate it! Lol Windgrace with this will never have less that 12 counters on him. It's ridiculous how fast you get 11 counters back

Having expropriate in a landfall deck is just “ramping to my goodstuff” lol

Yay great video, Joe speaking more confidently. I love it. Great work to both of you keep it up guys. Awesome.

Man Rishkar's Expertise is such a bomb. I wish I had specced into it a bit, because it was a 25 cent card not long ago. I remember telling people how great it was when it was in standard, like this absolutely won games for me in limited, and I kept pulling it in packs so I have like 5-6, including a Korean one which is pretty dope.

Literally just finished blue staples and refreshed my feed, this showed up. BOOM. 🔥

Love those videos!! I learn so much from you guys

Glad you're back Beezy, sounds like you're recovering still but hope you get better soon!

Always enjoy theses videos. Thanks guys.

The ceiling is the roof is a quote by a drunken Michael Jordan on the sideline at a North Carolina basketball game a few years ago.

I love my green thanks for making this video Joe & Beezy keep up the superb work. Keep staying Pawzitive

You guys nailed this video, Enuff said.

Learned a fed nice ones here guys. Thanks. Still say ram through should be there though.

Off topic but a SUPER underrated card is Wildfire Devils, one of my favorite! I play mostly Brawl and it gets INSANE value.

I agree with the doubling season assessment, I play my copy in Hapatra because the deck cares about counters and tokens and they're -1/-1 too so it's amazing there, but no other deck I have would want it.

Good job beezy answering threats on t1 and 2 🥳

If you haven't done it yet, id love to see a short about all the cards better than exploding vegetables. I loved the one about 10 cards better than counterspell

You guys should make a video series where you create lists for commanders from scratch you could even do slightly different takes and powerlevels on the same commander

I NEED that slime plushie lol I absolutely loved dragon quest as a kid😎💯

zendikar resurgent does some work in my beledros deck but i totally agree mana doublers usually are way too slow and you also become a huge threat by playing them in beledros i only play zendikar resurgent if i get to untap all my lands with beledros in the same turn so that i at least get to use this right away

Hi again from the other end of Lake Erie. Good to see Beezy on the mend, and I really look forward to gameplay content from you guys! I have a couple thoughts on Ramunap Excavator, Crucible of Worlds, and Ancient Greenwarden. First up, I know budget isn't a major consideration in these grades, but it's worth noting that Excavator is about a tenth the price of Crucible. That's not insignificant. Next, you guys credit a later card in this video for being a creature as opposed to an artifact with the same effect. I think the same applies to Excavator and Greenwarden vs Crucible, in that not only are you likely to want that body in green decks, but relying on Crucible conflicts with running artifact wipes which you otherwise might cast with impunity in a very-feasible-in-green deck with like 3 non-critical artifacts. Yeah, it's subject to creature hate, but that really should be accounted for already anyway since you're in green; 98% of your board is subject to creature hate. Last, Beezy sounds pretty low on Greenwarden because it's high cmc, but really, it doesn't seem that expensive for Crucible and Landharmonicon stapled to a body that itself seems about right for the price (even if a green 6 cmc 5/7 vanilla reacher would only ever see play in other formats). Think of Greenwarden as a wincon in the (landfall) decks that want it, and the cmc doesn't feel terrible. In the end, I don't think you guys are dead wrong, just a bit low. Excavator does require some build around to really hit the mark, but I'd probably put it at B+ for the reasons mentioned. I don't recall if Greenwarden was in the first video, but I don't think I'd put it below C+, with an argument for B- since I'm pretty sure the only other way to double up every one of your landfall triggers is Yarok, the Desecrated. 1 less cmc but 2 more colors, and you miss out on the relevant Crucible effect? Greenwarden looks like *the* way to go if you want the double landfall. FR though, what do I know? LOL I'm not good at card analysis, with a bunch of decklists-in-progress that I can't finish because commander isn't 200-card singleton and I can't decide what to cut! 😂

Interesting points about Noxious Revival I hadn't considered. What about in decks that focus on the top of the deck for some reason, like Atla Palani or a Cascade heavy deck, would that make it worth it?

He's BACK!

I run ghave, guru of spores. The only doubler i have in the deck is doubling season. As i can take advantage of both aspects of doubling season to make my commander 4x more useful. that and it makes Liliana, Dreadhorde general go from just a one sided fecundity that occasionally barters in blood into an on curve 6 drop that if resolves just ends the game. I agree with the B- rating, most decks wont be able to use both effects at the same time. Superfriends, ghave, and marath are the decks i have in mind that get immediate use out of Doubling Season.

I hope you are feeling better Beezy

I just immediately like the videos now. I don’t even have to watch. I just know they’ll be good. (Of course, I always *do* watch)

Thanks!

What would you guys grade genesis wave?

Time for me to come into the comments and make my obligatory comment about yidris. I'm starting to feel a bit like a broken record, but my love for cascade is much too strong. Anyway, Riskar's Expertise is bananas. Draw (usually) 5 + cascade, then play a 5 drop from your hand + cascade again. Its a 6 mana 4 for 1 when you have your commander. Probably the best card in my deck.

Did you guys grade these on curve or on greens curve?

It's cherries and beezy boi coming at ya fast with some smokeable green, toke up

What do they say are the cards we can replace for doubling season? Sounds like joe says two names right after and I can’t catch it

Doubling season slots pretty well in my Lathiel deck haha.

I love these videos

I play Zendikar Resurgent in elf decks for sure. The 7 mana inconvenience doesn't really apply when it comes to elf ramp.

Instead of Ramunap or Crucible, if you're tight on ca$h, you can try Groundskeeper. It's a 1/1 for G, that has "1G: return a basic land from your graveyard to your hand". Of course not comparable but it's 0.08 €

This Halloween you guys should dress up as as Grave Titan and Blightsteel

If Beezy is sick, I think he should go by “Weezy”.

Btw doubling season for planeswalkers is insane, other than that it is a very rare deck that can utilize it to its fullest.

Rishkar's expertise feels pretty good off the top with jahdzi Oracle of arcavios and dropping a seedborn for free

Ya'll need cascade decks, lots of cards you underrate are hype as for them. Not that I expect it to bump the grade (cascade being the reason noxious rebirth is a C/C+ or whatever) but it's worth a mention along with whatever jank you can come up with

Obviously it's not as good as Craterhoof, but how do you feel about Pathbreaker Ibex in a creature-heavy deck? You normally already have multiple haste enablers to choose from so it functions fairly similarly

I loved playing Craterhoof

Carpet of Flowers is amazing. If Im not playing against blue I am fine with it since blue is such a powerful color in EDH.

Regrowth and noxious revival remind me of green's demonic/vampirism tutors. As it turns out, your library has better cards than your graveyard

Do you guys consider elvish rejuvenator better than farhaven elf? I get that it can grab nonbasics, but I'm pretty turned off by the chance of whiffing. I dont think its any more playable than farhaven. Interested in your opinion. Is there something I'm missing about it?

Zendi resurge too yeah if you play in big mana decks it goes off, play with 10 mana up which happens quick in edh. It’s late game developer so better in fun metas then competitive though yes

Ok, hear me out, I think that it came out later but Lair of the Hydra has easily become one of my favorite green cards of all time. I was not impressed with it at first, but no card has single handedly won me more games of commander. It easily goes undetected as a land (also making it hard to remove) and fits with greens ramp super well as an X spell. Pesky late game board wipe? No worries, just throw the ton of mana you have (because you’re in green) into a huge hydra that basically has haste to finish things off!

Doubling Seasons is a A card for sure. without a doubt. Yes, maybe in a deck with tokens and counter but it amazing compared to all the other cards that can do something similar.

carpet of flowers is insane…

I don't know if anyone already said this, but noxious revival also hoses reanimation and top of deck tutors at zero mana at instant speed.

Great video, thanks! I'm going to have to disagree with Return to Nature. That card is cheap, flexible and one of the best at what it does in green. What's your opinion on Beast Within? I definitely think that it's a proper green staple.

I don’t play Burgeoning in my Bantress (Tuvasa) deck, because it’s really only going to be good in the first few turns or when I have drawn 26 cards and couldn’t win that turn. But I didn’t know that people didn’t put Explanation in their decks… and you may be thinking, what is the difference between Exploration and what you said about Burgeoning? Well, Exploration may allow me to drop my Serra’s Sanctum right now and continue snowballing. Burgeoning doesn’t do that.

I LOVE how you prefaced this video…. That should take care of all the haters and even people like me that were like “But!”

what do you think about omen of fire as a 2 colour hate spell? obviously this is nowhere nearly as good as veil of summer i was just wondering what other people think about a card like this

My wife decided to throw out one of my Dragonshield boxes because it was "empty." But it wasn't. It had my foil borderless Party Tree box topper inside. Watching this video just rekindled my fury... Didn't even get to play with the MFer!

Bz being here was so sick

Veil of summer would be amazing in my play group lol. Cause most decks contain blue or black, so if no one controls a permanent in those colors, I’m pretty much winning.

I disagree one zendikar resurgent, I’d say it’s a B. Because in a landfall deck that you are likely to have 14 lands or more out then this basically casts itself for free (assuming it doesn’t get countered), hell if you even have 10 lands then you will have 6 mana open after you play this. You don’t alway need to wait till the next turn to get value. It’s ramp if u have 15 or more lands as well as card draw. In a lot of cases it will give you the mana needed to allow a second play (seeing as ur playing green and most likely are ramping) or just to hold up a counterspell or 2 to help make sure you untap with it, assuming ur playing blue.

About Rites of Itlimoc reprint! I think they can't print double faced cards in normal sets, they only do it when there's a bunch of them.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH YEAH

Love Oracle of mul daya. Once you have enough land it for the most part guarantees you won't get any more dead draws.

Do you think Wilderness Reclamation would be better if you had Vedalken Orrery in play? You would basically cast it for free, and still have all of your mana to cast things on other people's turns. You get to use all of your lands on your turn, and then you get to to cast more stuff on their turns.

I see Noxious Revival as interaction with upside. I have ganked reanimation targets, blown out Mystical and Enlightened Tutors, broken up SDT combos, stuffed Bolas’s Citadel and Mystic Forge, all for the price of 2 life. Kinda surprised y’all only discussed the worse half, using it on yourself.

love my boy Dryad of the Ilysian Grove (I call him Simpsons guy because it looks like he has a simpson's face on his chest)

Great henge is absolutely an A+ in any format

Can you guys create a play mat for your channel that says” Solitaire is a game best played alone”

Chances are they won't print flip cards in Commander precons because it forces the consumer to also purchase sleeves, or use a proxy.

Imagine playing Adrix and Nev, playing Springbloom Druid, and then creating a bunch of token copies of it. Each ETB you sacrifice a land to get two, rinse and repeat until you have double the lands of everyone else on like turn four!

Is it not insane how many draw spells are in green? Green is broken. These spells should be blue or spread around to the other colors?

Can we get a video on degenerate cards? (Cards you should ask your playgroup before adding it to your deck.)

"Sic Beezy" is gonna be my rap name.

I run rishkars in my mono green omnath deck and I typically draw 25+ cards from it lmao

I still think Finale of Devastation is better than Craterhoof if you don't have Craterhoof in the deck.

Do u know how much ur channel means to me as a new player

While I agree with 99% of your takes, I gotta hard disagree with Noxious Revival. I'd put it at a B or B- for sake of fairness. Considering it can also work against your opponents at instant speed for free. Consider the following: an opponent is playing reanimator. They've entombed a Jin-Gitaxias or another massive beater turn 3-4. They don't have the mana to cast it. You can respond to their reanimation spell targeting their massive creature to the top of their library and then their reanimation spell fizzles. So now they have an uncastable creature in hand, and they're down a reanimation spell.

hope beezy gets better btw what happened to his glasses?

Ah yes green staples I must get some from staples

10:15 Jesse Lee Peterson reference? AHHHMAZIN!

Just my opinion here but I really only use green sun if I have top deck manipulation because of its reshuffle. Once again just my opinion

Ceiling is the Roof is something Michael Jordan said at a UNC speech

Still can't believe I pulled a craterhoof behemoth from a single pack. Shout out to gamestop!

Zendikar Resurgent is good in enchantress decks that can cast it off of one of the stupid lands (Cradle, Sanctum or Nykthos) and then use the other lands. But Michael, enchantress decks already draw cards. Sure, but they don’t draw you cards when playing your actual enchantresses (that aren’t enchantments).

Regrowth belongs in mono green squirrel storm

Notification Squad where you at!?

Go bills!

Burgeoning ftw

Ah Dryad and Ramunap Excavator. Neat cards that are then frequently outdone. Dryad needs to be fed cards from other sources. So I'd rather have Oracle of Mul Daya, or even Centaur Courser as those more actively provide card draw. Excavator keeps getting outclassed in the decks I'd put it in. Decks with Windgrace and Mending of Dominara, or Muldrotha, Kagha, Shadow Archdruid, and again Mending.

I don't agree when you say Elvish rejuvenator is better than Farhaven Elf, maybe you could make a short about Elvish rejuvenator and tell us why you think it's good because i don't like it.

Rampaging Baloths is a secondary combo piece with Kodama instead of Scute Swarm

I have wanted to off one of my great henges … then I Consuela the maid pops into my head saying “no….no”

Top Notch
