Huh? There was plenty of interaction. It's just that Seth used his Abrade at the wrong time.

This match has been nuts.
Also the commentary is fantastic. Great insight and they have chemistry.

Once the harvester is crewed it DGAF what else happens
have all four, love them maindeck in my RW Vehicles. I have an energy subtheme going on with Aether Hubs and Harnessed Lightning.

A lot of the big cards are just fine on their own, as demonstrated by Aethersphere Harvester here.
I suppossseee? I know it's basically just "lifelink for 2 turns" but it feels a bit awkward in that scenario for that specific card when I've already got stuff like Heart of Kiran and Smuggler's Copter safely taking colorless spots. Electrostatic Pummeler and Bristling Hydra are cards that were more coming to mind but those need a LOT of energy to make work.

People scoffed at me at my local shop when I told them to acquire 4 chandra torch of defiance when it came out. I'm not saying she's Jace, she's not even close. But she's still an awesome awesome planeswalker.
People did the same when I picked up 4 Samuts... still waiting for her to break out... any day now...
Maybe after rotation...
I've been playing her in Modern since she came out. Absolutely fantastic card.

These guys talking about how Chandra's Defeat kills almost everything in Ramunap Red for one mana. Yeah, so does Magma Spray, lol. (I know, I know, Kari Zev and Chandra, Torch of Defiance, but still.)

Hazoret windmill slam!
The crowd going wild was awesome.
Just got home so can actually catch some live coverage for once this weekend. Tried out Standard Showdown with a G/B -1/-1 deck and got destroyed. People there were super friendly though and gave some recommendations. Crowd wasn't super meta like I was scared it was going to be so don't feel like I have to completely scrap the deck to play there. Leaning towards throwing red back in.
I topdecked Startled Awake at FNM for the win. Felt amazing.
Nothing feels better than a winning topdeck. So good.

Yeah, Long is playing a full 4 copies in his sideboard.

Played Commander today, got my opponent down to three life. He said, don't you wish you had Lightning Bolt?
I said, like this? *throws down Bolt*

I mean that's sweet but... What deck are you playing that runs Bolt haha
PT flavor on point. Hazoret the lone god left.

I guess this is the Top 4 for you, then, since it's likely to be nothing but winning topdecks from here on out.

I meant when I'm playing, when watching I prefer good games that reward skill
Taking the right mulligan is a skill!

The way that shook out you'd think that Bomat Courier was Jin-Gitaxias.
They're about to finish the first semifinals. They play one match at a time (to get them all on camera) and best of five, so it takes a while.

It's still amazing that Sunscorched Desert is seeing so much play.
