The pronunciation of "Tidus" is often debated hotly online, however we can deduce the correct way to say this icconic character's name by referring to the Japanese version of Final Fantasy X, where Tidus' name is "ティーダ (Tīda)", pronounced "Tee-da", as the name is derived from Okinawan where Tīda means Sun. This is relevant for Tidus' character as it is reflected in his character's yellow outfit and blonde hair, as well as the crest and sigil he uses to opwer up his Celestial Weapon, the Caladbolg. Players often confuse the correct pronunciation of Tidus' name due to their association with the word "Tide", which also connects to the character --- SKIP CUTSCENE --- TEEDUS

Why u guys still use this app for life counting? It’s soooo bad. Use lifetap!!! U can count evereything all counter like poison,rad and monarch aaaand you can count commander damage. It has dice in it and you can choose a picture of your commander as avatar👌

Its so sad that I cant afford to buy the commander deck in our country because its like $200 to order and sold out on our locals, but I really enjoy this episode. Epic comeback.

I've seen an almost identical game from Spanish content creators, it tells a lot about the precons strength hierarchy... Prices are justified.

I love how they anticipated people getting nitpicky in the comments about Tidus's name, so they just put up a pinned comment.

how did Jacob know he had a port town... is game knights scripted?

great production and script, but it kinda ruins the fun of everything being off the dome and in the moment, feels so hollywood, comes off so fake and unrealistic.

Like how the decks fell in sequence…VI then VII and then X.

I really wanted to see Rachel do a lap around the room when she saw that unicorn saga. Sad it did not get into the final video. I appreciate that you keep things concise and fun but showing this clip would be so much on flavor with who you guys are and a sweet reference to fans that watch all of you materials (Rachel has a unicorn deck she talks about in podcast, during deck reviews for final fantasy she mentioned she flipped out when she saw that enchanment saga creature Jacob played)

What is Jacob doing with his eye!?!?! <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7X_W4OQfSn0&t=1914">31:54</a> It looks so damn weird! Is he like Bill Skarsgård, like he can independently moves his eyes from one another?
