We should have just released an army of Brushwaggs they wouldn't be able to do shit against those magnificent adorable little monsters.
Who else thinks the Phyrexian will be back in 5 to 10 years?
Our favorite lore guy 😊
Thank you my brother I’ve been waiting patiently for this.
I really hope we get to see Xerex and Segovia in the future. And the volcanic one.
The content, as expected, is mind-blowing. Please provide us with future lore about the gods of Zendikar like Emeria. Thanks!
Magic stories might be cool if they stopped releasing new sets what seems like every few months, re-releasing cards in different sets in a plain that shouldn't have them
Each invasion of each plane could have been its own set to savor the flavor, but wizards ruined it by pulling anticlimactic subversion of expectations.
it would be much better if you show related art when speaking of some plane. Instead it mostly just random :
I would love to see the Xerex invasion just to watch the Phyrexians get mind fucked lol that one sounded great. Keep up the awesome lore brother its fire.
i really want to know how many pyrexians were sent to Segovia bruh
Mouse click at gobakhan
Love the lore, as always. Where do you find all of this information, especially on planes, like you said, that we know so little about?
Another awesome vid
Hey, there's a typo on the thumbnail.
It's "Besieged"
WOOO SEGOVIA
I love the commentary using cards, quotes, and lore!
However, I found it confusing and disorienting that art specifically tied to other planes was being shown during the discussions (e.g. Invasion of Eldraine's art being shown when discussing Pyrulea). These planes certainly have the barrier of having little art, but I kept having to rewind to make sure I wasn't getting the planes confused.
Shandalar had very powerful wild magic none the phyrexians survived this outcome!
I love the Phyrexians as an enemy type but am unhappy at how they seem to have been watered down in how they look now. The old Phyrexians looked much cooler and gruesome these new ones look weak.
Hold on, how do we know Mercadia was the place Dyfed took the Halcyon elites? That was somethiing I missed completely — I know the other settlements outside Mercadia city were brought by a dragon engine that Urza reprogrammed during the battle on argoth though.
I also fully think that if the Mercadians remembered Volrath, they'd be happy to work with the new phyrexians
So many strong and independent females where the cards could have been cooler dudes. Like that Marchesa in cool battle armor, with her foot on a statue of a man's head. Females aren't warriors and the agenda and rhetoric gets more obvious each day.
I'd like to see a return to Ulgrotha to see how they can differentiate the vampires there from Innistrad.

Hmm
Karsus in D&D lore was a ultra power wizard that became a god of magic killing the previous goddess of magic so bad it destroyed "the weave" the material all magic is made from then turned to stone known as Karsus's folly
maybe he's a dead god plane now?
Was fun to see Segovia returning to at least one card, and Xerex looks amazing; hope they feature in future sets.
I'd like to know more about what you think of nicol bolas being made phyrexian? How could this affect the future.
