The Other 99 Extra – Combolicious 3
December 12, 2012
Posted by ‘KARSTON’ aka ‘TOPANDGO’
Today we have a third Extra featuring three more combos for Commander. These combos may seem pretty simple, and a couple are well known and popular, but I think that talking about combos in the realm of video is fairly important. Warning: this may be a tangent that has little to do with EDH.
YouTube, and video in general, is a great equalizer. How long does it take for someone to be amused by a couple of videos before work? How often do people look up how-to vids on YouTube instead of reading forums about the subject online?
I am a very visual person. I’m one of those people who would rather wait and watch the movie than read the book. When it comes to learning new things, having a visual representation of them really ignites my imagination and helps me learn. This is the primary reason Top and Go Productions and The Other 99 exist. This is why I do videos on the nitty gritty details of strategy and combos in Commander. I know that a lot of viewers have never even played EDH, much less know any of the combos or strategies involved. Therefore, through the medium of video, I can bring EDH to people in a visual way so that they can digest it easily. However, I also try to keep things fresh for experienced Commander players through my videos.
So, I guess my point is, if you have already seen or heard of the combos in this video, that’s fantastic. I hope the video is still entertaining and works as a means to educate lesser experienced players on some of the intricacies of this awesome format. Thanks for watching!
