I love hearing Memo talk about Stax, as someone who has been playing stax or storm my entire time I've been involved in CEDH since roughly 2021, I love seeing fresh eyes and perspectives. Double thumbs up in regards to Drana and Linvala, its a big reason I feel so good playing Greasefang in 2024 post ban, I don't play any activated abilities and can safely co opt opponents while also playing broad spectrum stax pieces. If only it had flash! 🤣 Also, editing this as I've just gotten to the point of the episode where Hermit Druid came up, I am on Hermit Druid in Ukkima/Cazur with Woodland, Soul Cauldron as well as Divining Witch and multiple flash enablers to increase resiliency of win attempts. Please keep up the good work Max!
Great conversation! Constructive feedback, whatever the music at 42:52 was….super distracting compared to the other music and would love to see that cut from the playlist in future episodes!
Abstract thought, but I need you (Max) to start a podcast with someone else with a "P" name and call it "Two P's in a Podcast". Between the play on P/Pea and the double entendre on Pod, the marketing is too good to waste. Also, and unfair for this to appear as an afterthought, always great to have Memo. Every appearance I've seen (this is probably only the 2nd or 3rd time I've seen him on a pod), he's been absolutely fantastic. And Max, great to see the new channel pumping out strong content. As someone who is content creation-curious but unwilling to devote the time, I respect the grind to come up with topics, schedule, shoot, edit, upload, interact, etc, especially when from hearing you talk about it, you have many/most of the same draws on your free time that I have. You're doing great, man!
Najeela with winning through combat as the focus is really good right now since the game is a little slower and the interaction packages used by most players still hasn’t changed
I’m coming to this party late but I want to weigh in on Shorikai. I tried it pre bans. It gold fished like it would be unstoppable. And it can get to unstoppable status. I lost 100% of prob 7 games I tested it pre ban. I’ve played it 6 games post ban and have 2 wins. Obv that’s a tiny sample, but it feels a whole lot better now. Players used to just win the game while I was setting up my invincible engines. Now they only win the game before I can set up invincible engines 🤔 MOST of the time.. I think it is good enough to compete now. I still have much more luck w Malcolm decks (don’t ask which one, I love em all 😉) Shorikai will take over. It’s able to out grind thrassios decks.. by seriously a lot.
Now, the dynamic is "play tymna" (unless you are Kinnan, Magda or Rogsi). Then the game drags on until everyone had discarded 3 times to hand size, has 15 cards in hand, 20 treasures from Smothering Tithe, and ONLY then, you dare to go in with double silence protection. As it happens, only a few decks can compete in this grind. And even though people are still trying, we will quickly arrive at a conclusion: Play tymna and card advantage engines.
Thanks for having me, I had a great time!
nevy is a cool guy
Have a najeela deck list?
Yeeeeyyy finally new episode :-)))) cant wait to hear it

43:30 song imo is little disturbing for a podcast background.
great episode 🎉
The GOAT Memo!!
Love it

Oh snap! That got in there by mistake. Thanks for pointing that out.
Keep up the great work 🎉🎉 🤙
Great convo!!
The music around 44mins was insanely loud. Juuuust a smidgen to loud
Memo is one of the few people I enjoy playing with on cedh discord
Discount sisay at your peril. The ‘best build’ isn’t exactly known yet but, the walker lists are a turn 4 proactive midrange combo deck.
Music at 43:00 is way too loud on mobile to hear, drum solo was too loud lol. Thanks for the continued content!

You gotta let me know what day you're arriving in Lisbon so we can Lobbycon or go grab a drink 👍
42:50 when the Doom music kicks in

Cool video but the music around 44 min gives me anxiety
@@NE5pats yeaaaah sorry about that. Did not mean for that track to get included. Won't make that mistake again.
What happened to Wounded?
As soon as the music changed and got too loud you lost me
