TXC2:
same here Ben, subathon has still got me out of wack 
Statist42:
Hi friends! 
TXC2: hello Flyingdelorion and Statist42 welcome
couchboyj: Ben playing not limited on a Wednesday does feel like its basically a different show, but I'm here for it!
Flyingdelorion: Thanks @TXC2 Hope you are feeling fine in these trying times.
Justherefortherewards: Wait, we're allowed to have healthy formats?!
xRaginGGobliNx: Spy combo looks so fun
jadielady: heyyy I've got the same shirt
TXC2: Flyingdelorion thanks, you too
public_key_reveal_party: Watching this stream at 1% volume in the corner while my car is worked on, the ideal stream watching experience
EmmaPartlow: Pauper is 2014 Modern before years of metagame refinement and you can win with something you just love playing - it's the close to perfect as it can get for a Constructed format.
TXC2: players don't like rotation, players also like low power levels, it's a conundrum
TXC2:
LRR'll have to get me in to yell about brawl 
couchboyj: Stanard has been great for a while, but currently has a Vivi problem
EmmaPartlow: Standard also has a price problem.
drrek0: I don't know that its as much that people like low power levels, as much as people don't like it when the formats they were already playing get rapidly higher power.
TXC2: standard has many problems
couchboyj: Standard is an Arena only format for me, yeah
TXC2: drrek0 players like the cards they have to stay good
EmmaPartlow: Canadian Highlander.
public_key_reveal_party: @couchboyj same, the only time I ever played standard was when I played on arena
TheMerricat: @couchboyj So I run into Vivi in standard one a day at most. I think it's really moer of a problem if you play BO3 instead of BO1
TXC2:
as a brawl player, I long for a gladiator queue 
TXC2: !patreon
OldUncleDan: Unfortunately, I will only do Gladiator if they were to remove Alchemy cards.

sallomon33:
ooh, hello, just like last time Pauper was on LRR MTG, I happened to randomly look on Twitch, and lo and behold, Pauper 
QuixoticScrivener: whoa, mtgo
TXC2: hello sallomon33 welcome
sallomon33: ooh, monoblack sacrifice with mortician beetle
EmmaPartlow: There's something elegant about 18 Swamps being the only land cards.
public_key_reveal_party: Mortician beetle is one of my favorite cards of all time tbh
SherWhoLocked13: Is someone is this chat a judge?
EmmaPartlow: Fun Fact: Mortician Beetle used to be a rare.
sallomon33: sta mina mina eh eh
sallomon33: also perigee beckoner, cool
couchboyj: Love the Beckoner
trolltan: @three
trolltan: oops wrong field sry
EmmaPartlow:
This takes me back to Atog and Fling back in the day 
TheMerricat:
Or create a billion squirrels. 
TXC2: !card fling
LRRbot: Fling [1R] | Instant | As an additional cost to cast this spell, sacrifice a creature. / Fling deals damage equal to the sacrificed creature's power to any target.
TXC2: ok fling is 2 mana as well
TXC2:
I was thinking of something that was 4-5 mana 
sallomon33: looking at the board and the sylvok equipment seems funky
TXC2: not running tragic trajectory?
couchboyj: Too bad tragic trajectory is uncommon
TXC2:
couchboyj ah 
couchboyj:
I was thinking the same thing, so I checked 
EmmaPartlow: You'll see a lot of Red in the Leagues
hd_dabnado: ben ive definetly been having a similar experience recently, ive started hating commander and getting really into pioneer
sallomon33: I guess we could run temporal intervention though since it IS a common
TXC2: MTGO is a lot
sallomon33: I have no idea how good it is when you have easy access to activating void though since in limited intervention's been bad
sallomon33: sorry, to reiterate more clearly: I wonder how good temporal intervention would be in a format where you have ready access to sac outlets unlike in limited
sallomon33: it's a coercion that can cost 1 with void
SherWhoLocked13: How does a creature with trample and deathtouch deal. Example a trample/deathtouch 11/12 is blocked by a 5/5, 3/3 and a 2/8 no first strike how does the combat damage work here
TXC2: SherWhoLocked13 deals 1 damage to each creature, rest tramples over
sallomon33: @SherWhoLocked13 one dmg is assigned to each of the blockers and the opp is hit for 8
OldUncleDan: It's been so long since I last played on MTGO. I had forgotten that the UI/UX is only slightly better than Shandalar.
alchemistsavant: Woo more pauper!
TheOrigamiGamer: Hey Ben! want to let you know that my Cycle Storm and Rakdos Burn decks are complete thanks to Card Kingdom. Excited to play these decks at my LGS.
TXC2: the system works
Justherefortherewards: @TheOrigamiGamer Did you perhaps use a special code over at Card Kingdom Dot Com?
SherWhoLocked13: @TXC2 Thank you
ThePixelSavage: what is bens deck trying to do? mono B aggro?
sallomon33: @ThePixelSavage monoblack crats
TheOrigamiGamer: @justherefortherewards I did! And I made sure to tell them Loading Ready Run sent me button please. The button I got was You’re a [3] in my heart.
TXC2: ThePixelSavage sac deck
ThePixelSavage:
thanks 
sallomon33: ooh, stamina shambler combo incoming
sallomon33: imagine if shambler made the tokens untapped
TXC2: #WeJustWin
TheElrad: isn't it 18 damage?
Wolfstrike_NL:
Just winning does sound good 
TheElrad: ooh, didn't think about the shambler getting another body
ThePixelSavage: gg
Wolfstrike_NL:

TXC2: lets go!
TXC2: Maths: not just for blockers now

kumatsu:
@TXC2 you have really good luck, btw 
TheOrigamiGamer: Perhaps a chat between friends in a game you challenge them to?
TheMerricat:
Ah I foolishly tried to recreate this deck in Arena but it looks as if most of these cards were too OP for modern gaming. 
EvilBadman: @TheOrigamiGamer discord exists
TXC2:
kumatsu I do have many sea cliffs, it's true 
TXC2:
TheMerricat give it a year or two, the power level will get there 
Trahas: @EvilBadman what about ventrilo? does it still exist?
kumatsu:
naps and keys and packing to leave for this week's tournament 
TheMerricat:
@TXC2
I was finding cards that did sorta like the cards in this deck but they are all at least one more mana and none the activiated abilities have a lto more cost. 
TheOrigamiGamer: Haven’t heard about ventrilo since listening to Basshunter music
BrowneePointz: @kumatsu you punch Dimensius in the face yet?
sallomon33: jesus, I was away for a few minutes and we're already onto another match?
BrowneePointz: speaking of Ben you gonna race change your Druid to Haranir?
kumatsu: @BrowneePointz nope, I'm on the road doing shows all of August
TXC2: TheMerricat yeah EoE has added basically the only free sac outlet on arena, so there's a lack of density for them
BrowneePointz: Eversong doesn’t look like butt finally!
sallomon33: @TXC2 nah, we had others before it, this is our only actually good one though
TXC2: sallomon33 ah ok then
sallomon33: @TXC2 for example in the SOI Remastered bonus sheet we got bloodflow connoisseur
BrowneePointz: god that too. finally making it not technically part of Outland
Feriority: I have a Sephiroth aristocrats brawl deck and I need to add the EOE sac outlet. It's probably still not very good, but it's functional.
kumatsu: my brain always goes back to Yahenni
TXC2:
sallomon33 right, it's always bonus sheets 
BrowneePointz: reminder chat before Bartolomeo they reprinted a lil card called Nantuko Husk and it powered an entire combo deck
BrowneePointz: and that was a WHILE before Bart
Voidhawk42: @Feriority I have a Sephi Brawl deck as well. Let me tell you, being able to flip Seph in response to a board wipe is excellent
OldUncleDan: I have a question about this new WoW expansion: Wasn't the Sunwell destroyed way back in WCIII? Isn't it the Bloodwell now?
alchemistsavant: "chinchillin" is a phrase I needed to hear today lol
sallomon33: also, as a member of the Gladiator Discord I have to say, when on Monday we got the news about the two anthologies coming to Arena the whole server lost their minds
BrowneePointz: @olduncledan a Naaru reignited it
kumatsu: @OldUncleDan it got better
TXC2:
sallomon33 I'll bet 
Mangledpixel: boop
OldUncleDan: Oh... Feels kinda lame.
TheMerricat:
They are baiting you for the long game. 
TXC2: hello Mangledpixel welcome
Feriority: @Voidhawk42 Oh, that's living the dream right there
TheAlmightyCheddar: I haven't heard mtgo sounds in forever
Mangledpixel: how, as it is said, goes?
TXC2: Mangledpixel it goes all right we won a game
Mangledpixel: woo!
Mangledpixel: retire champion
zeathean: It is a may
BrowneePointz: @olduncledan 1. find a better descriptor than lame plz 2. it was at the apex of a raid where said naaru was tortured by belves, falls to shadow, is redeemed, and then as a sign of forgiveness sacrifices itself to reignite the well and cure them of arcane addiction at the same time
zeathean: your magic is real
sallomon33: ooh, hello! @Mangledpixel
Mangledpixel: heyo sallomon33
sallomon33: I mean, we are quite literally dead if they counter it in any way
sallomon33: so it's all or nothing
Feriority: Woo
zeathean: Neat
sallomon33: Nice!
TXC2: big win there
ForOhForError: just that shrimple
sallomon33: I think marauder might be good, yeah
GreatGodOm: Wheeler is looking a bit different today. Can't quite put my finger on it...
sallomon33: with their big singular creatures
sallomon33: it's like his also handsome but in a different way...
avjamethyst: oh yeah, that's the account I use. You can snoop on all my canlander decks
A_Dub888: Hello handsome friends, how we paupin'?
TXC2: hello avjamethyst and A_Dub888 welcome
GreatGodOm: Was there a meeting at some point to determine who gets to keep "Ben" and who needs to use their surname instead?
A_Dub888: Thunderdome?
TXC2: GreatGodOm not really, Ben is Ben 'cause he was in LRR first, and Wheeler has been going by Wheeler since highschool as far as I know
EvilBadman: It's like he says, Thanks for Jamin, it's great to ben here
TXC2: not a Ben, a Ben-jamin'!
sallomon33: @TXC2 to be fair, Wheeler is a very cool surname
TXC2: sallomon33 indeed it is
ThePixelSavage: "I do not feel threatened, like, at all" - famous last words?
couchboyj: Wheeler literally plays a theme song that he plays before his streams that repeatedly says "Wheeler, that's his name"
TXC2: ThePixelSavage he said, as the bear got closer still....
EvilBadman: @TXC2 precedence is a mishmash, since Wiggins is Wiggins despite being first matt.
alchemistsavant: oh that's adorable
ThePixelSavage:
@TXC2 
A_Dub888: @alchemistsavant you're adorable
sallomon33: that's so cute!
A_Dub888: @sallomon33 you're cute
Mangledpixel: it's useful for the PPR intros, cos sometimes (but not always) we do those with single names only, in which case Wheeler is the only one with just a surname and everyone else is first names
sallomon33:
@A_Dub888 thanks 
Voidhawk42: Right click, but before they start resolving
lightfut: Except Wheeler has adopted the akki hermit
TXC2: EvilBadman fair point
A_Dub888: a Magic player not distracted by value? In this economy??
sallomon33: to be fair, they lost a card anyways
ThePixelSavage: love me a deck that works with 2 lands
TXC2: uh oh flippies!
sallomon33: I remember a pretty recent cardmarket video where the delver/tempo player did not transform their delver on purpose for a few turns cuz this ability, as it turns out, is a 'may'
Mangledpixel: big dingi
sallomon33: yeah, I think rites is good
A_Dub888: !card delver of secrets
LRRbot: Delver of Secrets [U] (back: Insectile Aberration) | Creature — Human Wizard [1/1] | At the beginning of your upkeep, look at the top card of your library. You may reveal that card. If an instant or sorcery card is revealed this way, transform this creature.
TXC2: greed has been called
alchemistsavant: "Ben, Greedy Boy" is a good magic card name
ThePixelSavage:

A_Dub888: that's a lot of legs for a chicken...
sallomon33: @alchemistsavant Ben 'Greedy' Ulmer
Trahas: If? Hopefully you mean When you get another season
EvilBadman: "<em>But the valuuuuuue</em>"
TXC2: if you would sac a food token, sac two instead
Voidhawk42: "If you didn't Mull, scry for a land. if you don;t find one say "uh oh". "
TheOneInquisitor: Nice to know beckoner is doing things in pauper
A_Dub888: "I don't think they'd counter a com- oh wait" - An actual thought I had
TXC2: we need an "always yes" option for triggers on arena
Marvoleath: I think you need to always yes before you always yield
A_Dub888: B E E G B U G
sallomon33: btw, fun fact: today I happened to find out there's a page on MTGWiki on vanity cards and both phelia and warren warleader (4/4 mythic bnnuy from blb) are based on wotc staff's pets!
TheMerricat: "The Beatles are great" that's what my dad always told me.
UtilityPunk: Yep, The Beatles are fantastic
sallomon33: yeah, we've been getting a lot of corgis recently
sallomon33: between phelia, chrome companion and that 1 mana green mount from dft
kippermydog: That new direction for dogs is "being very good" rather than "being mid"
MrSVCD: What is Pauper?
sallomon33:
ah, that's what you meant 
circusofkirkus: all dogs go to heaven
UtilityPunk: "All dogs go to heaven, humans stay on the battlefield"
ancientspark: @MrSVCD All decks are all commons
GreatGodOm: As the saying goes, "there's more than one way to skin a dog". Or something...
Mr_Horrible: "I used to be a rare" - Mortician Beetle
Mr_Horrible:
dogs don't fly, Ben 
EvilBadman: Judith?
EmmaPartlow: Judith?
alchemistsavant: Judith's doggie?
sallomon33: judith?
Voidhawk42: !card judith
LRRbot: Did you mean: Tesak, Judith's Hellhound; Judith, Carnage Connoisseur; Judith, the Scourge Diva
Voidhawk42: !card tesak
LRRbot: Tesak, Judith's Hellhound [3R] | Legendary Creature — Elemental Dog [3/3] | Unleash / Other Dogs you control have unleash. / Creatures you control with counters on them have haste. / Whenever Tesak attacks, add {R} for each attacking creature.
TheOneInquisitor: Were there any ainok in tarkir anyway, those are dogs too
MrSVCD: So it is not popper or proper but 'no money'.
alchemistsavant: yep, there were a few ainok
UtilityPunk:
Who let the dogs out? Judith 
TXC2: UtilityPunk finally solved that mystery after 20 years
sallomon33: clue is one of those sets like capenna commander or foundations and foundations jumpstart where when you discover a card you've not seen before it's like 80% chance it's from those sets
A_Dub888: wait, cast down was printed at common?
MrSVCD: So this is the version BBNO$ plays?
TheMerricat: You are going to be able to cast so many one drops!
Marvoleath: @MrSVCD yup, pauper meaning "poor person" is were this originated (although some commons played in the format now cost a few bucks)
Marvoleath: *where
sallomon33: but tehy gave us some cool designs with investigate and guild mechanics there
couchboyj: Foundations?
TXC2:
sallomon33 aftermath is a "whole" set like that 
Feriority: It was common in double masters
TheOrigamiGamer: @ancientspark If it was printed at common. So a card like Cabal Ritual which was printed at Mythic Rare in From the Vault Lore is still eligible to be played in your deck because it was printed at common in Torment.
Mr_Horrible:

nishwastaken:

sallomon33: ah, that's what you meant by orb!
alchemistsavant: stand back, i'm beginning to orb
TheOrigamiGamer: basically I can use the From the Vault printing instead of the torment or Mystery Booster printings
sallomon33: such a good and fun common in limited
TXC2: all orbs, but not pondering
Statist42: affinity would have played some artifact lands, right? or are those banned nowadays?
sallomon33: OH BABY
Marvoleath: They do play artifact lands, yes
EmmaPartlow: ORB
sallomon33: SUCH VALUE!
alchemistsavant: that might be the hottest play I've ever seen
ForOhForError: caaaards
ChaiLattAI:
OH BABY 
EmmaPartlow: I AM HERE FOR THE ORB
LaeliaTBR: god i wish that was me
A_Dub888: uh ohhhhhh, blinkies
TXC2: oofa doofa
Technobach: Line must go up
TheElrad: the value
TXC2: !clips
LRRbot:
If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Please give your clips descriptive names if you want them to be seen!)
EmmaPartlow: *fans self*
JKBalch: Opponent just, whoo
SoylentDoener: the value train is arriving right now
MrSVCD: Thank you @ancientspark and @Marvoleath , English is my second language so I didn't know how to spell Pauper.
sallomon33: they really cooked by making it a leaves trigger
A_Dub888: !card cryogen relic
LRRbot: Cryogen Relic [1U] | Artifact | When this artifact enters or leaves the battlefield, draw a card. / {1}{U}, Sacrifice this artifact: Put a stun counter on up to one target tapped creature.
sallomon33:
ngl after seeing that play I want us to get to the orb deck as soon as possible 
ForOhForError: I see I see
sallomon33: nope, lowest for labman is uncommon
TheOneInquisitor: I think lowest labman was is uncommon
Voidhawk42: Btw, is anyone joining you later Ben, or are you solo piloting today?
ancientspark: Oh no, he's a coward
EmmaPartlow: Orb of a Kind.
TXC2: is he a coward? or can he block warriors?
Statist42: "target tapped creature"
ChaiLattAI: Relic cant target Feeder
SoylentDoener: was only legal target, no?
adambomb625: tapped creature only
ChaiLattAI: The amount of times I say "Target creature gains 'yeah ok, I know what the rest of this card says'"
SoylentDoener:
i learned that too, in limited, trying to tap something but it just didnt let me 
sallomon33: I think it's not only to make it weaker but also to make it easier to understand for newer players
ForOhForError: or the free bounce spell
ForOhForError: forget if it's a common tho
TXC2: right chat I'm off
Ehrin_CB: come up against 6 land spy yet?
174 raiders from James_LRR have joined!

nyc_mtg: only free spells are snuff out and gut shot, snap sees play in mono u faeries, you miiiight get Foil'd against UW Familiars or UR Control but its super rare
TheMerricat:
18 lands and that's all you pull for the remainder of the stream. 
Marvoleath:
All lands all the time from now on 
wench_tacular: @Juliamon $2600
Juliamon: noice!!
nyc_mtg: cmonnn
ForOhForError: [[Snapback]] was the one I'm thinking of
sallomon33: @nyc_mtg wait, wasn't snap banned for some time in pauper?
TheMerricat: Late good night! @TXC2
sallomon33: or was it teh boomerang with storm
nyc_mtg: @sallomon33 no but just about every other card that untapped lands is
couchboyj: Thinking about sideboarding? That's a paddlin'
ForOhForError: it's a deep cut tho
sallomon33: @ForOhForError ah, I see. Yeah, it is a common
TheMerricat:
Actually since you are using Wheelers account they are all expecting Wheeler's shennagains and the longer you take to side board the more scared they get. 
ForOhForError: "free" may be an overstatement lol
Ehrin_CB: could be UW familliars
nyc_mtg: fams doesnt play artifact lands
Ehrin_CB: oh fair, yeah
Lord_Hosk: Turns out James didn't win the 75 million dollar lottery last night and we are all very disappointed in him for it.
nyc_mtg: fams wants to be able to brainstorm and shuffle with lorien revealed fetching
TheOrigamiGamer: $75 million Canadian dollars?
Mazrae: Afternoon everyone
CaptainSpam: James needs to learn how to luck better.
zeathean:

nyc_mtg: pump and then sac the mercenary
nyc_mtg: oooh right right my bad
Marvoleath: Id go all on feeders at this point, I think
Marvoleath: or not xD
TheMerricat:
I mean you still have 20 life, and they are still at 8. 
Marvoleath: #blameJames
TheMerricat:

nyc_mtg: pactdoll is so filthy its just also 4 mana which is almost too much
Mr_Horrible: so you're saying you want lesstician beetle?
Ehrin_CB: Fiends help get rid of the relics

nyc_mtg: oooof
Ehrin_CB: damn, nice top deck
Commodore_Perry_GG: That oof is classified as "Big"
Amazonian: a BIG oof
kippermydog: mind rot
Commodore_Perry_GG: hymns?
Nenluen: hymn to tourach
Amazonian: I wonder how many cards would need to come to Arena for Pauper to be equivalent to paper, probably a lot since it's a fairly diverse format
Ehrin_CB: unban hymn you cowards /s
deathofspam: The other one I find super fun is seeing the Dropout cast popping up on Magic stuff now.
singinnonsense: isn't mind rot 3 mana tho ?
sallomon33:
I was about to suggest Mind Twist 
Amazonian: tix and all that
alchemistsavant: They might be willing to do more pauper adjacent cards with those anthologies
Ehrin_CB: Gotta take a loan to get all your blasts in mtgo
nyc_mtg: circle of protection in arena lmao
Marvoleath: All commons format is so not what they would want on Arena with wildcards, lol
kippermydog: There is an Arena Pauper Discord channel, so it's a format that some people are interested in.
sallomon33: there also cards which are on Arena but not as commons, e.g. ephemerate
Amazonian: Arena pauper is just so different
Pywodwagon: don’t look at the price of poxwalkers from 40K on mtgo (it’s the single most expensive card)
nyc_mtg: AYEE
Ehrin_CB: never didn't have it
sallomon33: HOLY
couchboyj: Rats off to ya!
LithelyUnshod: one fear
Ehrin_CB: me and the bf built a mono black discard deck using virus beetles and the like. It's pretty nasty
Ehrin_CB: rituals into Fear of the Dark to just beat them down
nyc_mtg: you ever ephemerate a refurbished familiar? disgusting feeling
Marvoleath: !updog
LRRbot:
The stream has been live for 11:11:47. 
nyc_mtg: dust to dust my beloved
A_Dub888: A quick little break as a treat
Marvoleath: !break
LRRbot: Remember chat, break time for the streamer means break time for YOU, so unclench, get up, stretch, walk about a bit, and maybe refresh your drink, take your meds, or go to the toilet if you need to. Don't forget to wash your hands!
Marvoleath: "Today..."
Mangledpixel: TODAY!
Aceviru: Tomorrow
sallomon33: "it's sonic's 30th anniversary!"
Jethrain: Coming up...
raulghoulia: seriously. I thought a fell asleep and checkpoint was streaming somwhow
lightfut: Happy sonic 30th anniversary to those who celebrate
sallomon33: also why is that Arena screenshot so old, Jesus
sallomon33: the one in the break
Mr_Horrible:
"surely both of these contribute to hydration" 
Mr_Horrible: who up relicing their cryogen
Mangledpixel: ponder ye orb
Ehrin_CB: many magic the gathering the players pondering orbs
couchboyj: Can't ponder the orb without an orb
MegaDosX subscribed at Tier 1. They've subscribed for 62 months!
MegaDosX: Pauping bottles
LRRbot:
Thanks for subscribing, MegaDosX! (Today's storm count: 13)
Mr_Horrible: oh, that's a classic
singinnonsense: as the GLHF folks would say : "Cryogen Relic is a lot of cards for card"
Stormgod519: AFTERNOON!
alchemistsavant: Lembas being in an actual deck makes me happy
TheOrigamiGamer: Oh the spell doesn’t fizzle! it tries to destroy the land but it can’t.
Statist42: this deck looks very neat
Mr_Horrible: can regrow basically any relevant permanent
sallomon33: oh yeah
BrowneePointz: Love Ponza. Favorite Star Wars Glup Shitto
BrowneePointz: (the joke chat is his name is Ponda)
sallomon33: on the topic of ponza, I forgot to mention that during teh previous deck, but that deck seems pretty Ponza resilient
ghizmou: it s an interesting take on value
Erkartor: i downloaded mtgo yesterday played a puaper league with jeskai and immediatly went 5-0
PKuall4life: Had the pauper discord to pick between gruul RAMP and boggles. Yet chose ramp. Used to play ponza. I am always going to stay with ponza. Idk why they like ramp over ponza
Mr_Horrible: the children yearn for Reap And Sow analogues
PKuall4life: When you can go annoyed altisaur, cascade into boarding party, cascade into avenging hunter, take the initive
Dread_Pirate_Westley: Retrace, yes. Flashback, no.
MegaDosX: A burn spell with retrace would probably be busted
TheOrigamiGamer: @Dread_Pirate_Westley One of the reasons I love Deeproot Historian
PKuall4life: Had mainboard cast into the fire/ suplex in the main. When they would wildfire their bridge i would just exile it in response and just deny them both the ramp and the drawing of a card
PKuall4life: Always fun to do
Dread_Pirate_Westley: !card flame jab
LRRbot: Flame Jab [R] | Sorcery | Flame Jab deals 1 damage to any target. / Retrace
Erkartor: i got hyped there for a second thinking you were on my list
nyc_mtg: incredible synth flip there
kumatsu: yes
nyc_mtg: yes you can respond to its own trigger
Mr_Horrible: yeah, you have to just stack multiple activatioins
Marvoleath: you might need to hold control, not sure how MTGO works with it
nyc_mtg: the caveat is that sometimes grixis affinity will play a toxin analysis on it in which case only the first activation will be life linked
MegaDosX: How does one hold priority in MTGO?
Marvoleath: hold priority* )default keybind is ctrl iirc)
Ehrin_CB: love a good CYOA deck
MegaDosX: So you'd need to do that to double activate the guy
sallomon33: relic win?
nyc_mtg: if they had lava dart fireblast you'd be dead but thankfully looks like they dont
sallomon33: we drew it and we won
A_Dub888: o lawd WE BLASTIN
Erkartor: id cut the 5 drop against the burn deck
nyc_mtg: i think i like keeping the thraben charm in because you can get exile their lava dart

Thanks for subscribing, Saturn_Six! (Today's storm count: 14)
Erkartor: thraben charm just forces the lava dart doesnt necessarily get rid of it
nyc_mtg: 7
nyc_mtg: yucky!
lightfut: Uh oh stinky
Saturn_Six: Do yall stream magic on any specific days or times?
LaeliaTBR: @Saturn_Six friday afternoons for sure
Saturn_Six: Thanks!
Marvoleath: !schedule
arbysgaming38: red sinkhole
Aceviru:
If you like Ben, Tuesday is _the_ day. Next week he will be playing Pokemon TCG on cam 
Mr_Horrible: oh, btw, what backup did you choose on LN last night? I had to dip for something around the break
dm818: @Mr_Horrible frog legs and ratshaker
MegaDosX: Ugh
Mr_Horrible: sounds about right for ratshaker lol
Mr_Horrible: enjoyed that one when I tried it
EvilBadman: Glad you enjoyed my completely absurd suggestion
gualdhar: Ben, anything particularly exciting from Gamescom Opening Night Live?
MegaDosX:
Deck be like "hungry?
"
Mr_Horrible: I need to watch the new onimusha footage
Mr_Horrible: I'm fucking frothing for that
Mr_Horrible: Bloodlines 2 will likely happen, I do not have faith it'll be good tho :V
TheOrigamiGamer: Let’s Nope has helped me enjoy scary content a little more.
Mr_Horrible: damn, blasted
MegaDosX: Blam
Mr_Horrible:
I'll take responsibility for that loss 
Orxolon: helloo every1
TheOrigamiGamer: Yes I am very excited for a stadium type battler
frozenphoenix7: God I'm so excited for Champions
frozenphoenix7: It being on mobile is also so exciting for me.
Aceviru: Holy. I did not know that
MWGNZ: the training and breeding
UtilityPunk: Better enrol in Smogon University if you wanna be a Pokemon Champion
NoxStryx: Like a Moog?
Mangledpixel: synthesizer? I barely know her!
Mr_Horrible: Compass Compass is my favorite Mister Mister cover band
Sogheim:
@Mangledpixel synthesizer?! 
Mangledpixel: heh
Sogheim: I feel there's an emote for everything by now
frozenphoenix7: "Time for this week's episode of Let's Nope, where Ben teaches Adam about the horror of 70% accuracy Focus Blasts"
Mr_Horrible:
@frozenphoenix7 to be fair I think he learned at least a little of that from his stint at Kaizo Ironmon 
Mr_Horrible:
no biccy 
Pywodwagon: I'm actually flying to compete in my first ever pokemon vgc regional the week before magiccon atlanta
Pywodwagon: I'm very excited Reg H is back
Mr_Horrible: I like the risky play, tbh
Mr_Horrible: you're in a state where you can afford to gamble a little imo
TheOrigamiGamer: Wasn’t there a Pokémon event recently at the Anaheim Convention Center?
Pywodwagon: that did not happen
Pywodwagon: they just banned all legends and paradoxes
frozenphoenix7: @TheOrigamiGamer Their World Championships(for all their games, not just the normal video games)
Pywodwagon: I've seen what you're talking about as a fan format, but never an official one
Pywodwagon: they're always just dex based
Pywodwagon: anyways, the current season is a throwback to the full dex but no legends/paradox we had last year and its so good
Flamennight: Been a while since i was deep in the Pauper metagame, has Boros Bully evolved into Jeskai Bully?
Flamennight: Classic 2 mana stone rain
A_Dub888: 2 mana stone rain that gets around indestructible
StreamTeam3000: If you make Ur Land a Plains,does it loose artifact Subtype?
Flamennight: Hmmmm
StreamTeam3000:
Hey there 
Mr_Horrible: iirc even something like Spreading Seas that overwrites basic land type I don't think overwrites other types/supertypes like Artifact or Legendary
Tommyfromrugrats: bounce mountain cast bolt?
theamc2000: hi
Flamennight: @Mr_Horrible Correct. Blood moon on darksteel citadel is a artifact land - mountain without indestructible
theamc2000: I am good
Mr_Horrible: it's always a haymaker when you commit resources into digging and it doesn't work out, rather than just resigning yourself to the slower gameplan and hoping you can survive
Pywodwagon: I walked off the stage of SCG Indy and bought 3 more sagas for legacy when they announced that
SoylentDoener: also in standard any of the sagacreatures would have been unplayable because tidebinder would just kill them without the change
MegaDosX: Well Opt doesn't let them shape the top of their library tbf
Mr_Horrible: yeah, not to say I think your line was wrong or anything, they both had merit
MegaDosX: Lets you draw a card, the best part of Magic
frozenphoenix7: Yeah, that was the reasoning for the change. The Blood Moon/Urza's Saga thing is just a side effect of it.
arbysgaming38: standard is all vivi rn anyways
kumatsu:
wow, I can't believe Ben didn't watch my Arena broadcast 
Mr_Horrible: would it surprise you to learn that your assessment is correct, Ben? OpieOPP
Pywodwagon: its annoying because judges have spent the last 3 years teaching people how that interaction works, but I'm overall positive on it because I think more people didn't know than did still
couchboyj: A full time Gladiator queue would be dangerous. I'd be on Arena too much.
sallomon33: ooh
Pywodwagon: I finally got around to nightreign, shits good
sallomon33: good to hear, good to hear
Mr_Horrible: I *finally* got my PoE challenges done so now I have a week to shotgun my backlog before the PoE2 league comes out
Mr_Horrible: Blasphemous good, need to get around to 2
Aceviru: As a newer player who started in 17, that change sucked the wind out of my sails. There's hardly any good fish to play with. Trickster was the best we had back before MH.
Mr_Horrible:
and unlike Hollow Knight it doesn't lock an ending behind platforming challenges that the game isn't built to accommodate 
Mr_Horrible: I will always be a White Palace Truther, even though I still quite like Hollow Knight
theamc2000: if there is a branch system, I can do multiple endings. but this es are for like visual novel esque games
StreamTeam3000: Thraben costs White mana
Mai_Andra:
I recently started a second play of Stellar Blade to get the other ending/trophies. But then I hit the kinda-bullshit platforming part in the middle, and maybe I just don't... 
Mr_Horrible: it always just comes down to whether you're still having fun
MegaDosX: Ben are you a wizard
Cavemanhar: called shot
Mr_Horrible:
making up for last match I suppose
MegaDosX: You have to tell us if you are
TheOrigamiGamer: never didn’t have it
Cavemanhar: welcome to the highlight reel
ihopebobsclericdies: i've been wanting to get into pauper it seems like a sweet format and it's so cheap to play compared to pretty much every other format
Cavemanhar: pauper probably the healthiest its been in a while
Xhirup: hey pauper! orb shenaningans
kippermydog: I feel like when a metagame like Pauper or Highlander is super diverse, it's 75% because there's not thousands of people playing it. If Pauper was as popular as Standard and Modern, it'd get solved immediately.
neisan2112: Was it just Monoblack mid?
Xhirup: yeah I think any decks playing both orb and synthesiser are really hard
Xhirup: oh that's delicious
TheOrigamiGamer: 3 mana draw 4 seems good
neisan2112: Oh sick!
Xhirup: black sac feels decent into the field right now - and as you say it's a v cool deck!
PKuall4life: land grant being $3 a piece now is crazy
LithelyUnshod: Stun the Serpent?

GasCityGaming: Have you seen the mono G Kona cheat in deck in Standard?
ThePixelSavage: @GasCityGaming what does it do?
Flamennight: @ThePixelSavage Taos Konna to the station lands to cheat out beeg dudes
MrPipboy3000: @ThePixelSavage You use Kona to station and it just lets you drop bombs on turn 3
GasCityGaming: You use the mono G station land and cheap vehicles to get Kona in then tapp it to put in giant things from your hand on turn 3 or 4 regularly
ghizmou: what giant things are they looking to drop ?
ThePixelSavage: nasty. I like it
Erkartor: probably shave some bolts

Cavemanhar: I liked station after playing with it
Mai_Andra: v a l u e
arbysgaming38: i'm a big fan of station with the survivors from duskmourne
sallomon33: yeah, the eternal spoiler season is bad
theamc2000: EoE got overshadowed by spider man that got overshadowed by avatar
kippermydog: I finished reading the story this week, really hope they hire Dickinson to write more for Magic, was awesome!
Mr_Horrible: I feel like having a metric ton of tie-in sets now kinda exacerbates that
malfunct: it is slightly sad that after all these years the MTG story isn't major nerd ip
Mai_Andra: I'm just chilling in the Lorwyn waiting room.
neisan2112: Its more, they should have not had the release that weekend. But also it would have scrunched the schedule betwee other sets.
GasCityGaming:
only thing I don't like is i can't find any cards anywhere locally 
Mr_Horrible: everything needs to be scheduled for maximal reach now otherwise your brand partners will be mad
Mr_Horrible: it sucks
salamisuperstar: That's cool, but also makes me sad that everything is going to get overshadowed by UB slop
Cavemanhar: unfinity and EoE have great art
Mr_Horrible: like, I am not a UB liker and this is one of reasons why, tbh
sallomon33: @arbysgaming38 I have a whole (the 2 mana) Emmara Brawl deck and let me tell you, this year has been great for that legend
RatherLargeToad: The EoE podcast version of the story was really well produced
kippermydog: Very interested to see where they go with Jace + Vraska after the villain arc
Mr_Horrible: it's not, though. One of them means that another company/owner has a stake and gets a say in how it's set u and marketed
Mr_Horrible: it's not just wrt story
RatherLargeToad:
And Aetherdrift also had a really good story. Shame about Dragonstorm

GasCityGaming: yeah, that's why I liked EoE story,
kumatsu: I was mid-combat, but my fav thing about the Avatar stuff at SDCC is Nick got in HUGE trouble for it
theamc2000: brand collabs also did not help
Mr_Horrible: MCU brain has a lot to answer for, yeah
Kain0025: But Ben, what about Cowboy hats?
salamisuperstar: Companies take all the worst lessons from success
GasCityGaming: @kumatsu oh really? what happened?
Mai_Andra: but you have to have solid solo stories for the team-ups to be meaningful...
kumatsu: @GasCityGaming nearly caused a riot on the show floor from poor management
EvilBadman: Me, when I point at one member of the greek pantheon interacting with another: Damn Marvel
KeytarCat: walked in on a cHustle-type moment of "If you think about it, a tonberry is just a goblin"
theamc2000: a league players favorite pastime is insulting league fans
Mr_Horrible: sharing a passion in-person is always gonna land better, too
Mr_Horrible: online is a big encouragement to run one's mouth in a way that you have less an inclination to do face-to-face
kippermydog: Individual stories are great, but I think you definitely need some frequent characters that people can latch onto. Stuff like Elspeth's angel transformation and the Chandra+Nissa relationship have been highlights whenever they show up.
48 raiders from alexsteacy have joined!
alexsteacy: pebis
Gaelan_Maestro: hi all

Xhirup: I've been told by terror players to never let them get to 5 instants/sorceries in graveyard, in terms of timing thraben charm/cracking relic of progenitus
iPoding: I'm happy y'all have been getting into Kill Team. Have you had a chance to try out the co-op and solo rules?
salamisuperstar: What about when they get to 5 minutes on the clock? lol
Xhirup:

Enki1256: Ravener's are.... a semi-addictive team to play lol
iPoding: That's my way of trying to trick my friends into Kill Team, I have all the box since the revamp in 3rd, so they wouldn't even need to buy anything, but figured the easiest on ramp would be having them pick a team and us going up against some bugs.
iPoding: boxes*
iPoding: Teams are built, but not painted, figured let them pick a team and we can paint together.
Enki1256: I've been steadily just collecting and painting teams, while someone else works on the terrain. Building a nice, comfortable "library."
iPoding: @Enki1256 I'm slayin the grey in the spare time, have a pile of terrain awaiting a decent day and free time to get it all primed in one go
Enki1256: Always a smart idea. Current project has been the Mandrakes team.
MegaDosX: Reading the card, etc etc
Xhirup: what are speed paints?
PKuall4life: how has opponent not F6
Enki1256: Army Painter: Speed paints. Slightly thinner of there regular line with a shade already mixed in to help shadows.
PKuall4life: now he's 6
Juliamon: !they
LRRbot: Reminder! Your opponent may not be a "he" so try to use "they" or "opp" instead!
Aceviru: Thanks for showing pauper off
Mr_Horrible: it's just a full-ass value engine, every card is doing a little work
JKBalch: !next
LRRbot: Next scheduled stream: AFK (Time to shove aside those keyboards and play some tabletop games! Game: Horrified) at Wed 05:00 PM PDT (54m from now).
Xhirup: always wanna see more pauper!
MegaDosX: Thanks for stream!
BalthusHomewood: BTW, the beard game is strong, Ben. Stay good
kumatsu: Beardchamp
MegaDosX: Kickbacks, smh
BalthusHomewood: Got to pay the bills
Mr_Horrible:
"We're playing horrified. And there'll be a game there, too." 
JKBalch: Hell yeah. Thank you for the set up Ben
BalthusHomewood: What is it like to hold one's own ass in one's own hands?
sallomon33: press x to doubt
Wolfstrike_NL:
5 Ben streams in a row on LRR 
BalthusHomewood: Nelson is becoming too powerful
CaptainSpam: The ducks return!

Juliamon: By popular demand!
hiFunko: Truck Duck!
Aceviru:

sallomon33: ooh, angel again! Is there a particular reason why she has been a frequent guest recently? Just curious
BusTed:

hiFunko: like a candle in the HVAC
sallomon33:
well, bye!

Xhirup: ty for the stream!
MegaDosX: Fingers crossed for no burnout
MegaDosX: Later everyone, take care!
Juliamon: sallomon33 Well, with CDHC gone, she needed another stream to invade
Aceviru: Someday Beej will return that signed phone to her ^^
