Show Notes:
Tis the season to play all the foils! That’s right, it’s Blingmas, and this year we’re joined by Internet Legend Arin Hanson (aka Egoraptor from the Game Grumps) and CAG member Olivia Gobert-Hicks to celebrate in the traditional way: by facing off with the most shiny, tricked-out decks you’ve ever seen. So Merry Blingmas to all, and to all a good fight!
It’s Narset vs. Saskia vs. Atraxa vs. Tiamat
Hark the herald angels bling! ONLY ONE MAY STAND!

02.04.2023What a awesome theme and cause for this episode.
chris zyks
02.04.2023YOU ONLY HAVE TO TAPE 1 LAND TO PLAY ATRAXA WITH THE DRYAD OUT THERE. SO WAY DID YOU SPEND SO MUCH MANA? STILL GREAT GAME.
YamahaOSRS
02.04.2023I have NEVER had a good game playing Narset. Never again

Alex Morgan
02.04.2023Shouldn't Jimmy have been dead from commander damage at 32mins in?
Dylan
02.04.2023you can see how curled those cards are.
Rose Molioo
02.04.2023Arin is always pretty awkward on camera lol
felpshehe
02.04.2023Jimmy's deck was very vulnerable to spot removals, someone had to be playing Reaper King LOL
Retarded Tennis Studios
02.04.2023This is my favorite episode of Game knights, I know I'm a year late on saying this, But thank you game knights by bringing a smile on my face and making me feel better when times are tough, as a 15 year old Commander player it's really hard to have a good deck, but most of the other FNF players at the store I go to, love my really fun deck, It's the only deck I have but I love it, just like these videos, If you read this probably really badly typed comment, I thank you for your time and thank Game Knights for their years of intertainment

01.04.2023Great game. I love all the cards, the animations and the guests 🙂 Makes me want to spend too much on Magic this Christmas to get some of that awesome art though!! Will we have a Blingmas 2022? I hope so!!
Walls_of_Skulls
01.04.2023Arin got introduced like an old creature type, "internet legend"
Skrumbo Bumbo
01.04.2023So genuinely disappointed, Arin is the only dude I've seen on this show get absolutely nothing all game long. I almost think they should've done a mulligan match to let him actually get in the game and make some real content, that isn't just him sitting twiddling his thumbs for an hour. I was really looking forward to getting to see him play Magic, he may as well have left his cards in the box.
Seth Pintozzi
01.04.2023Does anyone else see jimmy as the archenemy.
SquallLionhart409
01.04.2023No idea if anyone reads comments on these older videos from @The Command Zone but this is categorized under Hearthstone instead of Magic the Gathering.
Kuno Pumpernikkel
01.04.2023Can we please have Arin back a lot more? He is funny as fuck xD
Nozdormu1982
01.04.2023Question did olivia suspect the akroma's will was coming?
Bloody Cascade
31.03.2023Wait dragons win? Oh
Dylan Miller
31.03.2023Haven’t started the vid yet, but putting money down that at some point Arin complains about how it’s hard to play well on camera.
Mauricio Villegas
31.03.2023For once, I actually liked this episode. The restrictions of the blings can be compared to a normal player's restrictions. And errors were made, Arin should've negotiated whom to give an extra turn with the "Time Warp", instead of taking it for himself.
tostitos789
31.03.2023I had no idea Arin was on Game Knights before. perfect way to spend my lunch break.
InsainRaven
31.03.2023Genuinely I loved this episode because Arin’s experience is pretty much my experience half of the time despite probably overstocking my decks with land
MsChapignon
31.03.2023WOTC: so, this video is to show me you guys like bling? Hold my Mox
>2022 happens<
Jimmy Wilcox
31.03.2023i have to pause this halfway through the video and just say, i absolutely love how jimmy is always the target as the biggest threat at the table in like just about every single video of yalls that i've watched because it hits home, im ALWAYS the target when i play games with the homies, and plus both our names are jimmy XD feel your pain brother!
Dylan Mahoney
31.03.2023Green is dumb lol
Yuval Sela
31.03.2023i love the jimmy's full text lands
Turbo_Bro
31.03.2023You guys should play on tabletop simulator. They also have MTG on it. But the game is a little bit pricy
P0mskid00dly0ps
28.03.2023Coulda done the damage from terror to nissa and killed tesseret on attack anyways but meh
mrpoparq
28.03.2023Aron figured out how to play narset without being targeted the whole game
MM MM
28.03.2023Arin has just become the worst guy in all the mtg video for me, do nothing, bad joke, make stupid decision i guess is a given for Arin, but the anti-fun decision? common why even go after Jimmy so hard after Jimmy was just auto dead on his turn, got no hand, and all card in everybody hand was reveal.
Berosta
28.03.2023Why it shows Hearthstone under this video? YouTube 😀
Greg Putnam
28.03.2023Does Sashkia pass her ability damage to the player as plain damage or Commander damage?
PowerPlus
28.03.2023Olivia is my wife
Kong Vue
28.03.2023Arin is annoying AF. We get it, you have a bad hand. Whine some more while grieving others.
cody steward
28.03.2023I'm sooo confused why wouldn't jimmie bring atraska out and put all the counters on her instead of the dryad?
bradkappell
28.03.2023Why didnt he put the henge counter on scion before terrors trigger blowing away tez
Billy Heart
28.03.2023arin is a massive racist and an all around shitty person. please research him before including him on future episodes. the controversies surrounding him and the entirety of the game grumps are egregious and the information has been readily available since 2020. this was just poor taste decision making.
rxmenn1
26.03.2023this video is the biggest flex ever
Andrew Comments
26.03.2023Kind of discouraging and overwhelming, trying to follow these games when you haven't played since Torment.
IceDragonSlayer089
26.03.2023go tiamat i play that deck
Syrinfox
26.03.2023Turn 1 plays Terramorphic Expanse. My immediate reaction was "and they say Yugioh cards have a lot of text" Reading the card it honestly just looks like what Land cards would look like if made by Konami.
benturtl
26.03.2023We've all been there Arin
Francesco Duarte
26.03.2023Bring errin baaaaack
Sam Ramsey
26.03.2023Arin was honestly super annoying this whole episode, bro was acting like the player we all hate playing with
Lukáš Richtr
26.03.2023Does the damage from Saskia’s second ability count as commander damage? I would assume that yes.
GOTHTIDE
26.03.2023Muscle Mommy
SumptuaryFive5
26.03.2023I feel so bad for Arin, everywhere i see him play he always gets bad luck with his draw.. so sad
