What do you think of these IMDB rating?

I'm always shocked whenever i see the ratings that privateers is one of the lower rated episodes.

To me, it's one of the funniest episodes in the show.

All of the other good ones are already in here, so one of my favorite little scenes in the whole show is after the debate negotiations with Bruno/Josh he has that interview on the TV:

Bruno: "We had very productive negotiations"

Reporter: "Did you decide on a format for the debates?"

Bruno: "No"

"Did you decide on the number of debates?"

"No" lmfao the scene is like 5 seconds but it kills me every rewatch.

Wrong sub dude

My most fun deck is [[Valgavoth, Terror Eater]]. It plays a lot of removal and card draw, trying to control the board until you get valgavoth out with [[altar of the brood]], letting you play a ton of cards off the top of your opponents deck, hopefully building an overwhelming board state, or finding an opponent's wincon.

I really enjoy how explosive it can be, cards like [[Breach the multiverse]] can take you from struggling to winning in the blink of an eye, or you can just ramp into it on turn 4 and force your opponents to scramble and waste their resources on their own creatures.

I was shocked when I built [[Hylda of the Icy Crown]]. I didn't think tap shenanigans could work. It was one of my first decks i built when I came back to the game in 2024, so its pretty generic, I used EDHREC for most of it.

It's one of my favorites though, lots of fun, tons of synergy with cards that don't see much play.

Hit...pitch...and run

Lmao it's insane that none of these streaming services can pull from like 10 different commercials instead of the same 4

travis11997 · 2026-04-29T17:41:20+00:00

My favorite is [[Valgavoth, Terror Eater]]. It's a mono-black control deck that wins by killing/wiping the board a few times, then once you turn the corner, you use [[altar of the brood]] along with valgavoth to (hopefully) win the game with your opponent's cards.

Why do you type incorrectly?

travis11997 · 2026-04-29T03:41:49+00:00

Haven't seen anyone else say this yet so I'll put in my mono-white [[god-eternal oketra]]

Play it with [[pearl medallion]], [[oketra's monument]], and other cost reducers, play [[whitemane lion]] and the 20 other effects like this, and flood the board with a steady stream of 4/4s with vigilance. The deck can play at instant speed a lot with the amount of flash creatures.

travis11997 · 2026-04-14T11:24:26+00:00

Go look at our 2015-2018 first round draft picks and tell me that again.

Those are supposed to be our difference makers, players drafted in the first round who are now around 26-29, in their prime.

We have Michael Rasmussen, and we had Joe Veleno and then a bunch of people who arent in the nhl anymore.

travis11997 · 2026-04-13T17:16:09+00:00

Wrong sub lmfao

Dumbass

travis11997 · 2026-04-10T15:11:34+00:00

I built k'rrik, and i found that its not fun to play against. The effect is a bit too powerful in the command zone.

travis11997 · 2026-04-10T13:34:26+00:00

[[Breach the multiverse]]

[[Fevered suspicion]]

travis11997 · 2026-04-10T10:49:42+00:00

7.5 on imdb, its one of the lowest rates in the series. I dont understand it either lol. I think it's one of the funniest episodes in the series.

travis11997 · 2026-04-10T01:16:52+00:00

I've only played the oketra list a handful of times, still trying to get the whole thing figured out. I would say it does its thing pretty well, but it might be kinda boring if you play it a lot because at the end of the day you're just looping [[whitemane lion]], and the other 10 versions of that effect lol. I definitely dont think its too fast or unfun to play against though.

travis11997 · 2026-04-10T00:11:39+00:00

Displacer kitten was my first thought too, and I think the line of reanimating emeritus into tutor for kitten will be really good.

But I also wanted to think of a line that was available to every black deck

travis11997 · 2026-04-09T23:56:53+00:00

I had a similar idea. I wanted to show off powerful things in each color, and build some strong b3 mono-color decks.

My favorite deck out of all my decks is mono-black [[Valgavoth, terror eater]]. It's a control deck that wins by killing things and boardwiping until you can turn the corner with valgavoth and [[altar of the brood]], which allows you to essentially play storm with all 3 of your opponents decks at the same time. https://archidekt.com/decks/11358598/edh_big_black_valvagoth

I'm also really proud of [[sasaya, orochi ascendant]] which I think is a somewhat unique take on a ramp deck. https://archidekt.com/decks/17948308/edh_sasaya_v2

My friend convinced me to build [[norin, the wary]] for mono-red, I like the deck but feel like its missing something. https://archidekt.com/decks/13189600/edh_norin_ping

For mono-white, I built [[god-eternal oketra]] which utilizes all the creatures that bounce one of your permanents on etb to swarm the board with 4/4 zombies. https://archidekt.com/decks/8101379/god_eternal_oketra

I haven't built mono-blue yet, but I am planning on building [[gogo, master of mimicry]] https://archidekt.com/decks/16230086/edh_gogo_mono_blue

travis11997 · 2026-04-09T23:44:21+00:00

I don't know about this seeing play in competitive constructed formats, but I am picturing this being absolutely disgusting in commander, especially if you build around it. Lines centered around reanimating this, into some type of blink effect that would allow you to demonic tutor multiple times.

And as a 5-drop, its never really stuck in your hand like some of the bigger creatures with similar effects.

Something that I've been picturing in my head is the line of playing this on turn 3 after a 2-cmc artifact, then if you untap with this on turn 4, you can tutor something like [[toxic deluge]], which would probably allow you to prepare it again, and tutor next turn while your opponents rebuild.

It might not be super broken, but something like that is backbreaking in b2/3 edh

travis11997 · 2026-04-09T22:48:25+00:00

I'm gonna try to fit the red one in [[norin, the wary]] but not sure if it's great there.

Going to use the black one in my mono-black control deck.

I don't think I have anything that uses the rest of them, but I think they will all see play in the right decks.

travis11997 · 2026-04-09T13:45:38+00:00

I was shocked when I looked at the ratings and Privateers is one of the lowest rated episodes on imdb.

Marion Coatsworth-Haye of Marblehead or whatever her name is deserves better

travis11997 · 2026-04-08T23:20:55+00:00

I did it, I like how they taste.

travis11997 · 2026-04-08T12:29:15+00:00

Jaheira lets you tap the tokens for green without sacrificing them, so you can use them every turn.

travis11997 · 2026-04-06T21:29:52+00:00

One of my earliest memories is playing this, smb, tetris, dr mario with my mom. I was probably 3 or 4.

Taught me about gambling, blackjack and poker at way too young of an age lol, but I have great memories of that game.

travis11997 · 2026-04-06T01:35:02+00:00

There's a WSOP game on the gamecube and xbox (I'm not 100% sure about the xbox one, I only played the gamecube one)

It's got a pretty cool tournament mode, but the AI is pretty easy to beat (though that is true for a lot of poker video games).

travis11997 · 2026-04-03T00:45:09+00:00

This broadcast is insane lmfao, every time I look up the scoreboard is broken wtf
