Also great to see many members from the os community in here, such as Megu, DFB, Will, Lady Deathtouch and Reindeer, just beautiful! Flipping Orbs is simply one of the best things you can do, I'd def recommend you to try it out! I guess, the obvious question here is, when will we see you at one of our old school tournaments Sam?

It was a draft with oversized 9x6 promotional cards that they used to have as store display pieces, and someone realized that larger cards made chaos orb easier. They also picked up a "Guardian Beast" in the draft and were able to keep chaos orb-ing over and over.

Competitive play is for hardcore deck builders and people who own a large assortment of cards/can afford to buy a large assortment of cards. New players want to: 1. Play casually without any stakes. 2. Collect good cards cheaply (not pay $50+ for a single card) 3. Be able to play without having to slave away learning every intricacy of the game in order to build a deck thats viable in the current meta. Being thrown into the deep end and being told “just build a deck” when you still have no idea how many lands should go in any given deck….. not very inviting. Thank god they sell preconstructed commander decks and starter kits. A new player has EVERY reason to avoid the sweat of competitive magic and go straight to arena with a code to upload their starter deck, and then start slipping cards into their deck as they go along and unlock them, And then hopefully they do the same with the physical deck (Recommend they upgrade the commander precon deck, because standard is dead…. Feel free to throw some of those starter deck cards in your commander deck) Competitive play simply needs a better, more beginner friendly community, Instead of, lets be real, looking for noobs to stomp because y’all are bored of playing the same old meta decks against eachother. The real fun is in commander, with things like Planechase. I side with the new players. Screw competitive play. Its what gives the game a bad wrap. Remember richmond crackstyle? Yeah, those are competitive players…… another reason to avoid, right? Right…. Pants up, and play casually, in a way where everyone gets to have fun instead of just one player🤙

I always told myself if i ever owned an LGS, i'd name the place "the 61st card" because there's always one *one more card i just had to have in the list. This? This is a muuuuuch better reason to do that.

Thank you for this video. Back when I started the game in 1997, my friends and I used to hold Chaos Orb in awe alongside Lightning Bolt and Serra Angel. Even back then, ABU cards were these mythical chase cards that few of us ever saw or used. None of us ever got our hands on a Chaos Orb to use. But, it was fun to think about.

Chaos Orb flipping is certainly one of the top 75 reasons to play Old School magic.

I recently discovered a local group of players who are related that play Old School every so often. Was wild to discover they lived on the same street in such a remote countryside town and even wilder to play. It was even the first time I had heard of the format.

It feels like we've come full circle with this. I came into your videos, like most people, on the Black Lotus video. And now here we are, four years later, covering it's partner in crime. LONG LIVE THE ORB!
