    Regarding the opponent only chipping in at the Eternal Wanderer: Due to its static ability, only one creature can attack it. They were hitting it as hard as they could.

    In the game against Crokeyz, Saffron waits literally 12 turns too late to play the portal, at which point it's not even good anymore. It was kinda interesting to watch him start playing commander and sandbagging everything to do fun stuff instead of just winning. And he keeps saying "what a grind!' even though he could have won instantly like 10 turns earlier but that would have been less fun.

      I started fast forwarding that game after reading your comment. Holy crap it was killing me to watch it just sit in his had as he drew over and over again just to discard to hand limit. Like I get that it feels great to draw cards but sometimes you need to just play the 9 mana bomb!

    "I block your elesh norn with my elesh norn, I guess?"
    "Okay, okay, Atraxa... I don't draw, but it can close out the game."
    "I actually just also drew mine.... so they both die, we both gain 7."
    "Can we just both concede and get this over with?"
    "No, because that's technically an ETB in this matchup so nothing happens."

    I was surprised not to see the cappena sac lands in this deck because it doubles up your fetches! Great video however, keep it up Seth!

    • @Buchaus
      @Buchaus Рік тому +3

      It actually doesn't work that way, unfortunately. The way the lands are worded, you only go fetch if you sacrifice the land. Elesh Norn will trigger the etb twice, but because you can't sacrifice the land when the second trigger resolves (because you sacrificed it when the first trigger resolves), you won't be able to get a second fetch.

    • @TheRealHungryHobo
      @TheRealHungryHobo Рік тому

      There's a really weird tension with those lands though, in order to make the double trigger work, and to reliably have basics to fetch out, you have to play way more basics - which means you have to play way less dual lands, which makes your 5C mana base extremely awkward.
      In a 3C version I think it would be way more feasible to make the mana work with the sac lands.

It's almost as if he has never heard of a bush/tree being trimmed to appear as something else, like a sphere, a box, or an animal- or a big giant dinosaur. Sometimes I am worried that he believes most words he doesn't recognize are just words WotC made up- like Phyrexian- yet he pronounces that just fine..."

    Elesh Norn is obviously amazing, but a huge takeaway from this video is The Eternal Wanderer is insane. I think she’s even better than we saw here, because it’s so tempting to go for blink value sometimes it might get lost that the best thing to do is often to get a 2/2 double striker

    I have a pretty fun against the odds style best of 3 deck I have been using to climb the ladder from gold 4 to plat 3. Going on 2.
    MonoMountain Rakdos. It has pretty good tech against all three of the toxic decks on the ladder, was about to beat out the phyrexian obliterater fight deck twice including going down to no lands. And an amazing time against esper control and superfriends. Monoblack has been the hardest match up, but I've got a pretty positive win rate so far. It plays aggro but can swap to late game control. Not sure how to submit it to you guys.
