A common mistake I see for sequencing is to cast a planeswalker and then another spell. You should almost always immediately use a planeswalker ability after casting it. Because as soon as it resolves you have priority, if you cast a spell (or activate any other abilities) then your opponents get priority and can respond and remove the walker before you activate it.

I usually hate videos like these that say "mistakes you make when playing" along with "cards you shouldn't be putting in your deck", but this video is really informative. It didn't occur to me to ask my opponents what I did wrong and I have yet played with someone who ask what they did wrong.

@orangegalen 16 күн бұрын

That ‘ask opponent what I did wrong’ came up in a game where it was 1-1at the end, he was playing one of those Aura-Voltron commanders and had protection from all colors. I lost and when I showed what I had in my hand, I had Sheoldred, Whispering One - and because she was black and his commander had protection from black I thought her “opponent sacrifices a creature” wouldn’t work - forgot it was a passive that bypassed color protection. Got that pointed out afterwards.

@SwedeRacerDC 11 күн бұрын

@@orangegalenIt's not because it's passive, but because it's a triggered ability forcing the player to make the choice. If the Voltron player mistakenly only has one creature with protection from all colors, there's a lot of ways to take care of it. Board wipes will still kill it, unless they're damage based, like red ones. Colorless removal will also take it out, though this is rare. But I appreciate your attitude to learn and grow. It will serve you well in this ever growing complicated game!

@orangegalen 11 күн бұрын

@@SwedeRacerDC what’s even better is a previous turn I had the best top-deck of my life when I got Karn Liberated and exiled it. Table lost their minds. Unfortunately couldn’t get the tempo back and he re-cast his commander and started the voltron up again. And then I had that misremembering with what protection actually protects against.

@@orangegalen It sounds like a wildly fun game. The kind I enjoy playing and even watching to the finish if I've been KO'd. Protection is definitely a complicated mechanic, which is why they rarely revisit it.. It's not as bad as banding, which is why that one is completely obsolete.

@casey8768 17 күн бұрын

Best piece of advice in this video. Plan your turn out before it's your turn. What needs dealing with. What are your options. Does drawing a land change things. What are your ideal top decks. You can have a plan in place and re-evaluate as new information is relevant. A lot of the Profs advice here is really going to help you as a newer player. As you grow as a player, know that a lot that is said here is conditional and subject to the conditions of the table. Growth will include those moments when you realize the lessons presented here do not apply and to do it differently instead. This is a great place to start, but there are still level-ups to come.

@ceulgai2817 16 күн бұрын

@pierrehelie521 17 күн бұрын

something that really helps also in order to keep track of things and speeding your turn is to clearly voice out loud your steps even though you are probably playing casual, saying "ok, my turn, untap, upkeep, draw" will help you better manage what comes first in your turn and not forget an upkeep trigger for instance also, it helps clarify that you are giving priority and so players knows when to interact so many times I have seen player rushing a step (often when going to combat) and having two creatures sideways and callign someone before people react (or try to bargain/politic) and it often leads to a "sorry but i had something to do before combat" and your judgement is biased by knowing part of what the attack looks like you should always emphasize on when you give priority

@ThisIsCarta 17 күн бұрын

For a lot of new players the biggest mistake is not knowing what they can respond to and when they have priority to respond to it. It's surprising how many people think that removing a creature after being declared as an attacker means its triggered ability doesn't go on the stack. Introducing players to Reconnaissance with first strike damage or similar things is another one. There's plenty of general play improvements sure, but that stems from understanding basic rules of play sometimes.

@joecooper8527 17 күн бұрын

@NoTengoIdeaGuey 17 күн бұрын

I've found the best thing to do for new players is to give them the "how to play" cheat card that comes in every precon that shows steps and phases and habe them refer to thay while playing. It really helps people wrap their head around what's going on step by step, rather than just having three experienced players yelling random instructions at them.

@canamrock 17 күн бұрын

To be totally fair, this isn't even a new player problem per se, but one of where the format tends to encourage a lot of shortcuts for time efficiency's sake which run smack dab into things like: beginning of combat step interaction, attack triggers before blockers, the weird divergent timelines that can occur in combat when one player might have a fog or similar type effect, handling things like cascade... CEDH is handy here because it forces players to be more explicit on the priority windows, etc., and new players certainly could use the inculcation of those pieces of game knowledge so they can shortcut in a more informed way.

@ThisIsCarta 17 күн бұрын

@@canamrock I agree that shortcutting is part of the issue, but I also run into a number of people who don't even know priority exists and think they can cast an instant at any time they want. I.E: A threat ETB's and they cast swords "as a response" when there are no triggers going on the stack and the player who cast it hasn't moved to their next end step/phase. This and a lot of similar things come up at my LGS even when drafting and there have been people who argue or even call a judge because they believe the game works the entirely wrong way. Personally, when I teach people to play any format I sit down and have a notebook breaking down steps/phases while we play with our hands open on the table so I can explain responses and other nuances for a few games or until they're comfortable. Also because of this I announce everything I do in a game whether it's casual or competitive and I don't allow myself takes backsies, as I'm more likely to remember something I did wrong if I suffered the consequence.

@devinloew7681 16 күн бұрын

Yeah, as a newer player, understanding how priority works was a nightmare. Imagine my play group when I finally found out I could get value out of creatures and artifacts before they get removed

One thing that helps is knowing the priority for attempted removal and counter spells and not jumping the gun. quite a specific example, but I've been interjected with a counter spell out of priority while I was casting 'Hatred' just as I was declaring how much life i was going to pay, allowing me to change my answer knowing it was going to get countered.

Arter having played for almost a year I found that the biggest challenge to commander is building decks that are just right for your play groups. Having to consider the groups rule zeros, power level and play style etc.

@dreyfus37_65 17 күн бұрын

Playing games in my buddies garage with just piles of whatever is how I learned to ply magic. It was having a 15-30 minute discussion with my friend after each best of 3 that got me good at magic. Not only was able to articulate my thought process to him, he would then articulate his thought process to me and then asks me specific questions about the games. For instance “do you remember what was in your hand on turn 2?” I would tell him and he would respond with “I wonder if maybe doing this play instead of the one you made would’ve been more optimal, based on what I had done. Well, if you would’ve done that I would’ve played differently.” Kind of conversations. Sounds simple, but it went a long way in making me a much better player. So yes, always ask the people you’re plying with what their thought process. Even in the middle of the game. Just don’t be rude with how you’re asking, and most people will happily explain themselves

@Ser_Nathor 17 күн бұрын

Best piece of advice I can give to any new player is, I know building decks and playing multiple decks is exciting and fun but focus on 1. Focus and really learn it. Learn the combos and timing, how it all connects and interacts. It'll help you become a better player, and you'll have more fun at games, rather than juggling various decks, strategies and trying to remember what is in a deck and what it does.

@TheClone37 17 күн бұрын

I'd like to add one more important one to this list "Dont fear the counterspells." Unless you're against a mono blue player, the number of counterspells is extremely limited. If you let a player successfully threaten you with a counterspell, or act like they MIGHT have one (leaving 2 blue open/untapped), you will be losing turns to that player through inaction. While a cointerspell might remove your game winning card or a development piece, deciding not to act because of one gives your opponent more turns to figure out a win and makes you "lose" turns to them, making your victory less likely. Im not suggesting playing like no one can interact with you, like playing in a vacuum, but play like each big move is going to be countered, and plan around that.

@hoodiegal 15 күн бұрын

The "make them have it" approach to whether or not your opponents have interaction. Either they have it and use it now, and won't have it later; or they don't have it now, and you get to do your thing. Where this gets complicated is if player A has a counterspell and both player B and C has a winning play in hand. Whoever is first to fire will probably lose. That's where the mind games come into play.

@aggedon7483 15 күн бұрын

This is a big one to teach newer players for sure. If the possibility of a counterspell causes you to not play the card, it's almost as if it got counterspelled for free (and even if they didn't have one) since the result is still that you did not resolve it, gotta make them have it.

I would also say try to avoid game/deck memory. This happens to new and seasoned players. It’s good to know that an opponent is a strong player, or that they have a strong deck, but that doesn’t mean you need to destroy/counter everything they play. Oftentimes people will sub-optimally remove incorrect threats because they know a player is “good” or because they’ve won prior.

With sequencing it can make you ignore other suggestions. It might be better to play cards after combat but if say it’s an ability that does x based on the number of permanents you have if you can increase it before combat do it!

People also tend to share information about their hand (ex: sure, keep going, i have no interaction aniway), do not do politic at all (a well done bluff sometimes can get you out of sticky situations), and they prefer to keep a weak hand of seven cards with too many or to little lands instead of going to a strong hand of 6 or 5 cards.

Re: decision paralysis: I love Prototype Portal, but I had to replace it in every deck it was in w Mimic Vat, because I could never settle for what to imprint, Mimic Vat let me act first and adapt later.
