Last time i enjoyed discard, leyline of anticipation was in standard. Instant speed discard was OP as well as having Ashiok and emergency powers. Played evwrything on opponents upkeep so top decks didnt matter at all.
Trick I like to use is go morbid or braids to feed Liliana. You can also just use a removal to get another removal with morbid, so if you stack engines at 3 cards and everything else at 2 or less, the cards will stick together from the algorithm. To prevent land flood you have to have a very low mana count with fetchlands, the game will give you ALOT of mana if you dont have something absurd like only 6 mono lands and a few mirrex or attack lands. What's sweet about Liliana is if you get into late game and have an unneeded fetch you can feed it to the discard effect.
CGB, you pilot this deck like a madman. Discarding your only Virtue to Liliana instead of killing the Zombie with it just to keep the Virtue on an adventure and still be able to plus Liliana there on game 2 😅
You're obviously not very good. Opponent is playing all kind of exile effects, and no creatures at all. Virtue was a dead card, and the zombie was very important for keeping pressure, because he couldn't afford to attack with the 1/1 bat anyway
That zombie was on board long enough for it to deal a crucial amount of damage. At that point, CGB needed the tempo of that body on board far more than the value of an extra card.
I usually run mono black with my dumb 6 mono land deck I use for abusing the handsmoother, but recently I dropped a black for a single blue to add some non-creature negate. Went up 2 tiers in plat with it yesterday, winrates pretty good for something that makes no sense on paper.
Sorry about the weather down here.... I guess it beats snow :D Brad Pitt is here in Daytona filming a movie if you want to pop over and check it out :D
I’m sort of a Huskies fan, and the whole time watching that game I was just thinking about how CGB is gonna mention it in his video. It’s why I don’t follow sports anymore lol
With how much stress the mill deck causes you, how come you aren’t running a few copies of unlicensed hearse? It’s basically a free include, and it dunks on the graveyard based cards like mending and mindbreaker.
CBG I had to thumb down when you revealed, whispering, that you play blue-white control every day. Blue-white decks are all the pale deaths, which men miscall their lives.
You have to be able to remove cards in their graveyard hand denial kills blue but with all those graveyard manipulation is hard to get around. And I think mtg arena favors that deck lol
If by sitting here screaming at mono red players and cursing not having enough money to buy enough wildcards to build a stupid overpowered deck.... then yes!!!, I do that all day lol
people who still believe bluewhite control isn't as bad as monored are in fucking denial lol it's a completely autopilot deck. sweeper the moment they have the mana to cast it, slam mindbreaker any time they can cast it, jace mill for 15 every cast
CGB: Bat is no good
Also CGB: Exclusively plays bats
@@Temurmemer it's a good card yes, just funny watching CGB switch up on it
CGB always plays the meta. So bats are a solution.
This dude pays for likes
Learning the origin story of the CovertGoBlue moniker (at about 35:50) was great!
Agreed! All this time, we thought it was his love of Islands... 😂😂
They say speaking to your computer about your deck over and over expecting a new result is the definition of insanity 😂
This video was a ton of fun to watch. Very admirable CGB to keep playing and recording the videos. Thank you for your hard work.
Great video! Thanks for sharing your time with us while on vacation. Have fun touching grass, here in Michigan it’s buried under a lot of snow!
I think we all need a video from the beach!! Thanks for the content and have a great time there
So pleased to see some love for Henrika Domnathi. Underappreciated card.
Henrika is a card that really should shine in Standard, but it got powercrept so badly.
@@Modest_PhDI know right? I’m a world with sheoldred nothing can compete

I think the best part about the no sound set up, is the classic sound of something with.a lifelinker against mono red spaming spacebar to attack
This discard deck was fun to watch. Im glad youre having fun playing the game!
Thank you for the content and enjoy your vacation!!

I love your vacation voice JUST as much as your normal one!
Enjoy your "time off" my friend!
He's not your friend, buddy
Heck yeah man! Hope you enjoy(ed) Florida! I was born and raised here and love the hell out of it. Why do I love it? No questions!
rare footage of someone playing games for fun i cant find anyone like this in 2024
CGB avoiding the Michigan winter, smart play! Hehe
I'm not sure how videos this good only get ~2k views, but thanks for the great content!

Enjoy the beach!
29:21 I hope you remember every game you lose to UW and understand the frustration. This is your type of player.
Wutz is slang in German for pig 😂
Get those batteries recharged CGB. Hope you come back energized and motivated
CGB: Do you just sit around talking to a screen about your deck?
Most people: 🙂
Scottish OF subscribers: 😒
Another reason to show how good the cauldron is. Imagine exiling those maulers and beating them down with bats. :P
I wish I was in Florida right now. Yesterday it was -14f over here.
I usually run mono black with my dumb 6 mono land deck I use for abusing the handsmoother, but recently I dropped a black for a single blue to add some non-creature negate. Went up 2 tiers in plat with it yesterday, winrates pretty good for something that makes no sense on paper.
That feeling of, never could have won Arena gives is just so frustrating.
Flashback to guilds of ravnica cgb
Top decking Jace when it was the only option to win.. 😂 Can't say I haven't been there, but damn does it hurt for the opponent 😄
Sorry about the weather down here.... I guess it beats snow :D Brad Pitt is here in Daytona filming a movie if you want to pop over and check it out :D
My 1 year old and I are both upset at the lack of the "tadaaaaa" in this standard intro (he went tadaaaaaa" anyway).
BEST intro yet!!!!
Have a great vacation,
Enjoy the vacation my man.
I never leave home without a Path of Peril in my black decks
I’m sort of a Huskies fan, and the whole time watching that game I was just thinking about how CGB is gonna mention it in his video. It’s why I don’t follow sports anymore lol
Rip Washington
It’s funny when CGB has a miserable time against blue/white control because he created that monster, and now he has to deal with the consequences
Don't know about you but I love talking about my big ole deck. I play with my deck and show it off to my wife Quite often.
Could have worn Cool Guy sunglasses all episode.
Moooom, CGB said I'm cool again!
It'd be really interesting to gain insight on what kind of plugins you are using for your voice if you're willing to share?
Мне понравилось играть этой колодой
"How many fields can you get away with?" says the guy that in another video played 4 fields of ruin + 4 demolition field 😂
@covertgoblue enjoy your vacation!
Mishras foundry not being able to buff not attacking assembly workers is a shame
With how much stress the mill deck causes you, how come you aren’t running a few copies of unlicensed hearse? It’s basically a free include, and it dunks on the graveyard based cards like mending and mindbreaker.
I hope the commander videos are going to come back soon
Mono red deserves it. It knows what it did
At this rate the next CGB token is going to need to be a bat, homie is addicted to the flying fuzzy friends.
i request a gameplay video on the bar by the pool, with margarita and sunglasses :)
Win or lose Roll Tide
Covert Go Bat
Boy, my x1000000 Feldon's Canes I have will finally be worth something if they reprint them soon to deal with stupid mill decks.
cgb playing bat and ash playing esper... is something going on?
I know your not up to brewing... But I do miss your brawl content.
Bro how does BW always have the right cards everytime
Enjoy your trip!
CGB hey its me the public. I hereby grant you permission to play control every day
CBG I had to thumb down when you revealed, whispering, that you play blue-white control every day. Blue-white decks are all the pale deaths, which men miscall their lives.
what happened at 35 minutes in?
I hate toxic. xD But i love when my favorite mtg player kills it. :D
Now I want to know the specs of the laptop he uses to make this.
But CGB, why would a hater leave a comment?
CGB I love perfectdark
That last opponent seemed like someone who net decked the mentor deck, but was still learning it.
Gabbysharon was either really bad at building decks or just really got done dirty by the shuffler. I vote shuffler.
Mono red players deserve a daily sack tap.
You have to be able to remove cards in their graveyard hand denial kills blue but with all those graveyard manipulation is hard to get around. And I think mtg arena favors that deck lol
Good times
If by sitting here screaming at mono red players and cursing not having enough money to buy enough wildcards to build a stupid overpowered deck.... then yes!!!, I do that all day lol
shakin my ass for this new CGB video
Was that Deck or ....
Leaving a comment
ily
F mono red
Day 7 of asking for covert go beard
You look very handsome, ty for vid
I kinda hate mono red
Pays for clicks for a crummy greedy company with a non random shuffler...
Appreciate the video but take some time off my dude.
Do what you love, and you don't need to work 😅
Touch grass?! I thought mono-green was trash in this meta?
Arena sux cheating non random shuffler and a greedy company.
For your discard. Skullcap snail and corrupt court offical are wayyy better than the deep cavern bat. Just sayin..
24 seconds in & have already clarified that this guy is a nob head.
people who still believe bluewhite control isn't as bad as monored are in fucking denial lol
it's a completely autopilot deck. sweeper the moment they have the mana to cast it, slam mindbreaker any time they can cast it, jace mill for 15 every cast
