take one from my manifold because i am not paying for it and then i will draw then i will play a mountain and i'm gonna move to combat and i'm gonna swing zara at jake boss yeah that seems pretty smart let's see what that hand's got hopefully it comes back to you at the end of turn jake uh okay i mean uh i'm just gonna choose if it betrays oh my god yeah you do it comes into the battlefield tapped and attacking so the annihilation trigger does not happen that's good so you've got four in the air and 11 on the ground coming at you okay well i'd love to keep captain say so i'm going to take 15 and i'm going to 24. all right then in my second main face i'm going to pay 2. play sundial of the infinite no no oh no no you're a punk so i'm gonna go to my instep and zara's gonna trigger which would bounce ita betrays back to your hand but then i'm going to activate sundial the infinite to end my turn nasty man yeah you're just keeping that aren't you it that betrays you all right go ahead ashley okay awesome i'll just untap and hope i draw something good okay i'll play an island all right um jordan yes where are you going to be sitting there if that betrayed i didn't even expect to have an intimate train how about you don't send it at me and i don't get rid of your sundial of the incident all right i'm in great uh one two three four i will play from beyond and past her okay i'll untap i'll drop return something good no not really i guess i'll just do this i'll tap a forest for a soul ring uh i will tap six mana and i will cast a consecrated sphinx and because i have bolo out that means i get two consecrates mixes all right that's immediately a pretty powerful engine uh and then i will pass the turn to you jake all right i'm gonna untap drop return i'll have two consecrated sphinx triggers so i'll draw four cards all right well i'm gonna activate captain sisse and search my library for a legendary card i'm going to get pramicon skyrampart that is brittle and i'm going to tap three and i'm going to cast pramikon all right i'm going to choose left so that means you can only attack the player to your left jordan but you made a deal so you can't actually attack whoa hey i'll take that you did all right well i will play my land for turn which is a mountain and i'll pass all right i will untap and then on my upkeep uh i will not pay for manifold so i will take one damage going to 38 and then i will draw consecrated sphinx i draw four cards and then i am going to play song mad ruins tapped and since i can't attack ashland i'm just going to pass the turn i guess wow thank you i said i would and i will not touch your sundial you know what jake i'm not going to attack you either because you stopped the eldrazi threat for one turn so yeah it was definitely going at you too yeah oh yeah a hundred percent this guy's got another two consecrated sphinxes all right i will untap and draw for turn on upkeep from beyond will trigger and i'll make a one one i'll draw the sign and then i'll draw four cards because my two conscious creates fixes yikes and then i will tap all four and i will play a thrawn dynamo nice okay and then i will tap my throne dynamo to play a simic signet and i will play a waste and uh that's it for me i will pass turn okay i will untap and drop return i will go ahead and play an island i'm gonna start by tapping three mana and casting a twinning staff pretty good i will tap three to cast a reclamation sage because of twinning staff and volo i'm going to create two copies of it oh baby nice so that means i have three reclamation stage triggers on the stack beautiful i'm going to point them at manifold sundial of the infinite and you're from beyond ashland they are dead and then i will tap in island and my oranthopter of paradise to cast a far seek and i'm gonna go find a rhymewood falls and it comes to the battlefield tapped on my ass up i have 13 cards in my hand so i have to discard so i will discard six cards three lands a cultivate combine chrysalis and idol of oblivion okay and pastor and you jake sweet i'm gonna untap and drop return that'll trigger both of my consequences fixes and i'll draw four cards all right i'm going to start off by activating captaincy main phase again it's the time in response oh i'm going to sacrifice my eldrazi scion and play void slime counter activated ability no it wasn't supposed to be like this all right well i guess i don't search my library for a legendary card that ability is countered you just have to say for funsies now i have one less blocker i'm going to play my land for turn and then i'm going to tap five and i'll cast the prismatic bridge all right i'll pass the turn maybe one of these days i'll cast jodah all right untap i will upkeep and i will draw on your drawstep consecrates things with trigger i'll draw four cards and then i'm going to play rogue's passage all right jake i'm gonna pay one and i'm going to chain a vapor primacon back to your hand so you now have the option of sacrificing a land and uh doing a chain of vapor of your own oh so if i let permacon go back to my hand you're open to attack whoever you want i'm planning on swinging my it betrays jimmy who just says tokens he'll get rid of okay i kind of like this so i'm going to let the chain of vapor end with me i will not sacrifice the land and i'll let pramico go back to my hand all right and i'm suddenly allowed to attack whoever i want so i'm going to move to combat and i'm going to attack jimmy with it the betrays and zara renegade recruiter okay zara's trigger is going to go on the stack okay so i'll put all the creatures in my hand to the front of my hand and there you go i will look at the absurd number of cards you have in your hand no it's moderate it's fine there's no it that betrays they'll say that much no no there's not there are fun options though yikes this is difficult uh there's something i want to do and there's something i know i should do so there's a bio-vision area in this hand ah yikes if i stop this biovisionary from happening i am putting down on my defenses entirely so it's important to me that you guys don't just like jump on me after that and take me out i think the only reason i would do that is out of sympathy because i think you're forced to do this anyway yeah also if anyone jumps you after the what i've been doing it would be very silly yeah in that case biovisionary is coming into play tapped and attacking you okay wong but we also have an annihilator trigger on the stack yep so what i'm going to do is sacrifice the two token copies of reclamation stage that i have unfortunately they do not get to go back under your control because they're tokens sadly it's a pretty fair it betrays at this point yeah and then go to blockers yep okay i will block your zara with one of my contacts fixes that's the token okay and then i'll block the it that betrays with my two one reclamation stage and then i will let the damage from biovisionary go through all right then in response to blocks i am going to pay three and go see flickr two flickers our renegade recruiter and my bio visionary oh so you're gonna keep it huh yep it returns it to play under my control now i know that you've got a handful of counter spells right i do i do i have a pact of negation but that would mean i have to lose five mana on my upkeep and is that worth it i don't actually think so so yeah i'm gonna let that resolve they go out come back in nice now if you get four copies of bob visionary you win the game that would be great right if only and the reclamation stage is going to go die to the it that betrays in combat okay and i will take no damage because you flickered the creatures before damage was dealt all right go ahead ashlyn okay after all that i will untap and uh draw on your dress up two conti sphinxies four cards oh it's so many cards great i'm gonna go ahead and tap an island and play a mystic or mora ooh nice and then jimmy i'll go ahead and cruise and grip your tweeting staff oh okay nice um that is fine so the twinning staff will get destroyed and go to my graveyard that's progress yay i have one floating and then i'll cast here oh oh doesn't it look at someone's hand yes wow hi jimmy may i see your headpiece okay here you go everyone gets to see my hand now okay so let's say you have packed integration you have a parallel lives takashima you have a force of vigor ewit is in second quadrant it's pretty good too pretty good yeah i can definitely riff next turn all right um i will choose cyclonic rift to exile goodbye cyclone rift it was nice knowing you alright and that's my turn jimmy go ahead okay i'm going to untap and i will draw for turn and then i'm going to tap one two three and cast a scoot swarm oh geez what's good comes in volo guide to monsters is going to copy it and i will get a second scoot swarm and then when i play a prismatic vista i have six more lands so that means i'm gonna make two more copies of scoot swarm i'm going to tap for three mana and two life and cast a phyrexian metamorph no and that is going to copy scoot swarm and volo sees that and makes another copy of the phorexia memoir and then i'm going to get a second copy of scoot swarm yikes i sequenced that wrong i should have played the fraxen metamorph first but that's fine i think i'll have more enough scoot swarms to scoot my way out of this game so all right i'm gonna discard eight cards and i'll pass turn okay i will untap on my upkeep prismatic bridge is gonna trigger so i'll reveal cards from the top of my library until i hit a creature or planeswalker that comes onto the battlefield i don't think it's going to get us there the saddest creature ever actual sadness creature all those cards are going to go on the bottom when solomon enters the battlefield i will go get a basic planes and that's going to come onto the battlefield tapped so now i will drop her turn and i'll draw four all right i'm going to tap captains to say yep then i will go search my deck for a legendary card and put that into my hand ah i'm going to get saskia the unyielding they'll go to my head so i will play a plateau and then i will tap three and cast pramicon this time i'm going to choose right hmm okay and then i'll follow that up by paying black red green white for saskia the unyielding oh man and i will choose jimmy so whatever creature i control deals damage to a player deals that much damage to jimmy hmm i wish i could have done more girl pass all right i will untap i will upkeep and then i will draw onto create sphinx makes me draw four cards uh all right because i gotta try and do something i'm going to move to combat and jake i'm going to attack you with zara renegade recruiter and it betrays all right which one do you want to go off first the another two or the zara trigger um i'm gonna go with the zara trigger first sweet all right there's my hand thank you uh it is a whiff there's nothing in here that i can play oh and it's a trick because the annihilator ii trigger will go off and i'll sack my solemn similacra oh boy my solid simulacrum now and let's give you a plane i'll take it and when solemn dies i will draw cars thanks means i draw four when someone enters the battlefield i will go get a basic land i'll get an island which will enter the battlefield tapped and then go to damage i'm going to block zara with pramikon okay and then i will take 11. all right going to 13. then i have six mana available to me i'm just gonna have to play something that will draw me cards i guess so i will pay four and i'm gonna play ember wild captain making me the monarch and now whenever an opponent attacks me while i'm the monarch amber wild captain deals damage to that player equal to the number of cards in their hand whoa so i will in my turn and because i'm the monarch i will draw a card all

thought knots here great so when you attack uh ember wild captain triggers and you will take damage equal to the number of cards in your hand i will take one going to 38 and then i will block with solemn simulacrum all right go to damage he will die there you go that goes back to your graveyard thanks jordan and then i will draw a card close grade sphinx or moral cards and uh yeah that's all i can do so i will pass turn okay on your end step i'm gonna crack my prismatic vista paying one life and going to 37. i'm gonna go search my library for a basic land card i'm gonna find a island it's gonna be put onto the battlefield that's gonna trigger all six of my scoot swarms so i'm gonna make six more copies taking me from six to twelve uh i have two separate copies of squid storm here because these ones are forex and metamorphs and they are artifacts so we just count that separately in case somebody casts like a dockside or something in case okay and then i'm going to tap one two three four still on your end step ashland and cast second harvest whoa oh no so for each token i control i'm gonna put a token on the balcony that's a copy of that permanent so everything's gonna double again i'm going to go from three for example copies to six scoot swarm copies there and 14 of them here and that's also going to make another consecrated finks copy uh mr grimora trigger you can draw uh and then i'll draw four off of your mystic remora trigger okay um and then i'm going to untap and drop return it's not looking good for us nope okay i'm going to go to combat and ashlynn i can only attack you so i'm going to go ahead and swing three consecrated sphinxes and everything else but volo you have 22 scute swarms coming at you and then 12 in the air so that's 34 total damage coming at you okay i'll block one of the artifact versions of scoot swarm okay uh and then 33 damage is going to go through yep sure is going to five i'm going to go all in on this scoot swarm mania because i think it's kind of fun oh baby so i'm going to tap one two three four and cast aedricks and nev twin casters my playmat nice if one more tokens would be created under my control twice that many are created instead honey you've got a big swarm coming you've got a big swarm coming and then i'm going to tap three mana and cast kodama's reach uh mrs ramore you can draw so i will draw uh six cards off my three consequence fangs one two three four five six and then i will search my library for two basic land cards guys look at how small jimmy's library is what a loser what a loser i got all these cards i almost am out of lands uh i'm gonna put one of those onto the battlefield and the other into my hand when that enters the battlefield all of my scoot swarms are going to trigger so i have 21 scoot swarms and if one of which will be created twice that mayor instead so they each make two copies i'll make 45 there i have six here so this will go up to 18. and this forest comes into play tapped uh but i still have a land drop four turn so i will go ahead and play a another forest out of my hand so i have 53 copies right here i'm just going to start doing this with 2d6 oh my gosh i tell you what if it matters we'll figure out how many are untapped okay great if i did draw it it would be the greatest dockside extortionist of all this is now 134 copies of that oh my gosh and i have one two three four mana left open yeah i'll just go ahead and pass the turn and i will discard a lot of cards wow uh let's untap and hope for something really good with prismatic bridge has been good nothing that would have been good creature or plane swap mod do you need to cast it i do not so it's just an indestructible 10 10 that exiles the top 20 cards of target player's library oh no defending players library okay can you attack with it does it have haste it does not oh but i could give it haste hmm two three twenty one two three okay i have 24 cards left in my deck boy we could make this happen we could i still get to draw a per turn would you like to draw first uh i will not be drawing for consequences anymore is that a fact that's a fact all right i'm going to activate captains to say oh gosh don't search my library it's so good jordan would you like to cut my deck sure so the card i will be getting is samut voice of descent fine oh and that will go into my hand i see all right i'm just going to go for it i'm going to tap five and cast some voice of descent right gives your creatures haste that gives all my creatures haste including this oomog okay i think that's the way i lose this game so i will be forced to tap four mana and plasm capture that spell mystic or moral trigger uh you can draw uh would you like to drive her from consequences absolutely not i'm going to respond to that oh no i'm going to cast arcane denial oh no mystic or mario will trigger okay i will not all right well the plasma capture is 100 countered should have kept that pact indication in my hand feels bad and then i may draw up to two cards at the beginning of the next turns up keep if you'd like to if i'd like to i will go to combat yeah you will and jimmy i will swing ulamog the ceaseless hunger at you okay so on attack i exiled the top 20 cards in my library yes sir oh no i've flown too close to the sun four five six seven eight nine ten one two three four five six seven eight nine ten i have four cards left in my library oh yeah oh man and i'm gonna exile this whole pile of cards now okay including my wonderful blight steel colossus oh thank goodness and that's gonna go into the exile zone i think that'll stop our landfall problem a little bit it's a lot of scoot swarms yeah now we only have nearly 200 scoots forms a lot of good swarms that's for sure blockers uh i guess you got an untapped yeah i'll block with one of my untapped scooties and this will go from 53 to 52. all righty that is all i'm going to do so jordan i'll pass all right well let's see what i can do i will untap on your upkeep i will draw a card from arcane denial jimmy if you want to you can draw two cards i don't want to i don't you're loud i don't feel like it my stomach hurts and then i'm going to draw jake i could do a lot of damage to you but i don't necessarily want to don't love pramicon but i do also think jimmy will just wreck us kill the primacon why not see what happens let's see how that goes i can't hear you through of all those cars here's what i say i can deal with jimmy but i'm going to want you to not just use everything you have on the board to roll in and kill me on the next turn i do have two opponents so i don't attack you you don't attack me okay i can make that next turn all right but i'm still going to attack you with stuff i'm going to live through it though right yes yeah uh so i'm going to move to combat and i will attack you with zara renegade recruiter and if the betrays okay how do you want to stack the triggers uh so let's do the itha betrays first all right i will give you my two basic lands all right i'll take them to my growing collection over there they come to play sick worthy basic lands untapped all right and now czar will go off so you can see that you got here uh i'm not gonna do this because i just agreed i wouldn't kill you but yeah it's a big whammer in there holy how much mana do you have available on board i have five mana okay let's hope you don't have a way to suddenly have a lot more mana all right i will block zara with pramicon and i will take 11 damage and go to two okay wow i'll go to my instep and because i'm the monarch i will draw a card and then i'll pass the turn okay i will untap everything and then mr kamar will trigger i will not pay for it it has done its job and i will draw for turn i will play an arch of araska and then i am going to tap four five six and i'm gonna play spitting image what are you targeting i'm gonna target primacon and when it enters the battlefield i'm gonna choose left so that no one can attack anyone oh that's good all right it's a damper on my spirits but it's not the end of jimmy wong and i'm not going to do anything with that sex trigger okay and uh yeah i will uh pass turn well that was a cool turn all right on the end of your turn oh here we go see if we can kill jimmy uh-oh and i'm gonna play blue sun zenith yeah targeting jimmy so he has to draw five cards oh you love it mystic steady coma cosmo serpent oh boy misty rainforest fact or fiction and what's that fifth card i flew too close to the sun blue sun's in it for the win and then i'm gonna shuffle blue sun zenith back into my deck after it resolves very nice and sadly my bio visionary goes bye-bye is it my turn now yes it only seems like it i was like wait it's jimmy's turn oh no all right i will go to my untapped and then on my upkeep prismatic bridge will trigger so i'll reveal until i hit a creature and it's gonna have haste because of samut it's like there's only a few different creatures where have these been where are the creatures my my my so but no one can attack because of pramico as it goes you cannot even so you can't block with things that have eaten cmc including tokens all right uh and you cannot cast even spells wow and then we'll drop return okay i'm going to pass the turn since i can't attack because of double primacons all right yeah i will untap and then go to my upkeep and draw a card all right i will play a sulfur falls she'll come into play untapped because i do have a mountain so i'm going to pay five and i'm going to play zealous conscripts is odd oh and i'm going to steal void when it works oh how do you feel about this line of play that will resolve all right 41 word becomes mine it untaps it gains haste then i'm going to pay four and i'm going to play anthony mutinier who i now legally can cast yeah all right so let me ask you what are your plans my plan is probably to kill ashland's primacon and swing at you with stuff all right it's good information to know i guess he didn't have to tell you anything good is that near resolve results okay ashton's premicon is exiled and you get a 4-3 blue salamander token thank you and now i can attack jake when you move to combat uh i'm going to tap three and cast to ferris protection oh bye-bye phase oh so all of my stuff disappears and i'm protection from everything my left title cannot change wow okay exiles that is sort of a big game with that on the stack though before that all resolves and i disappear i'm gonna activate captain and search for a legendary card all right i'm gonna get planar bridge that's scary that's very scary and that will go into my hand oh that's good okay but also i can tap samut to untap captain sisse so i can get another activation so i'll go search my library again for another legendary card second card i will get is chromatic orry and that'll go into my hand and then i disappear i have protection from everything and my life total cannot change all right i think i've just got to try and kill ashland while the killing is good oh now you can attack ashland sorry uh so i'm gonna move to combat and i'm going to attack you in the air with zara renegade recruiter i will attack you on the ground with void winower since it is going back and let me see what you got in your hand um all right i will definitely have this mold drifter enter the battlefield under my control ah very nice tapped in attacking yep mole drifter will enter the battlefield and i will draw two cards nice wow all right i take 19. and i die all right sorry ashlyn moldrifter will go away because you died and at the end of my turn void winner which was only with me for the one turn because of zealous conscripts we'll go

Noticed some off screen shenanigans. Maybe was just some cut footage of a take back on the sequencing of Ashlens turn at 8:30.

Ashlen casts a thran dynamo, casts simic signet, then plays a wastes leaving her with 1 colorless wastes, one eldrazi scion which sacs for colorless, and the signet that taps for GU if you pay 1.

On Jakes turn that wastes magically transforms into an island allowing her to sac the scion to tap the signet for GU, and tap the island for U to cast [[Void slime]].

[u/Blaze_1013]

I REALLY do not understand why Ashlen has a waste in her deck. Like it has to be for colorless costing Eldrazi, but it seems super not worth it. In general she really didn't do much in that game.

Also do not understand why Jimmy would EVER discard a counter spell in his position. When you're ahead they are literally the best things to make sure you don't lose.

I know in the past they've said that they've reworked their decklists so as to not have them chalk full of removal as they make for less exciting games, but mass removal is good for decks for a reason. This game was a pretty clear example of that.

Jimmy made it something like three times around the table with a pair of consecrated sphinxes. Then he made almost two-hundred 1/1's. And everyone just sort of sat and watched him. This is not the normal commander play experience.

[u/SuspiciousAmbition22]

It was a very fun game to watch! But I agree with Blaze: the pact of negation was probably discarded for more “viewer satisfaction “ in stead of optimal play.
