This was an absolute blast! Thanks for having me on!
To try to get ahead of this question (since it comes up a lot when it happens): Yes, you can get multiple Professional Face-Breaker triggers in the same combat if you deal combat damage to multiple players, and thus can create multiple treasures. Most people focus on the "one or more creatures" part of the trigger, but that's not the relevant part of the ability here. That just stops you from getting multiple triggers if they all deal combat damage to the same player. The relevant part of the trigger is "to a player". If you spread out your attacks and can deal combat damage to multiple opponents, you can get multiple triggers and can get multiple treasures, not just one.
It was such a blast playing with you all! Thank you so much for having me!
Radagast deathtouchers is such a simple but ingenious concept, I love it!
Welcome ro a new Episode of Josh doing Josh Things. You cant ignore that man for so Long.
Rachel should have had 13 insects with her broodhatch nantuko.
Malakir rebirth targeting goldspan dragon should have created a treasure token , I think 😅
Yes! Actual pod of Hobbit Brews. Only three out of the four last time.
Its awesome that ypu guys got Nerd of the Rings on the show! The amount of lore videos I have binged of his!
when the blasf act went off at 44:15 shouldn't Rachel have made 13 insects from the mutated Broodhatch nantuko?
1 minute?? This is the EARLIEST i will EVER be for a Command Zone video🔥🔥
17:35 YEAAAAA SPIDERMAN. THE PLANE OF NEW YORK ALWAYS ARRIVES
Josh needs more wincons in that deck
Finally a good game this was way better then the game knights hobbit game
Finally someone built Radagast! I've only been seeing Beorn
So treasures and one "lonely" mountain to cast Smaug, nice :)
30:04 8/8 shark doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo.
Nice to see how a lot of real commanded games play out...in a blood feud
Dude I love venat/hydaelyn. My friend group witnessed her transform once, and that was the last time I was allowed to do so lmao
Big fan of Nerd of the Rings! Great guests
