@Anders Julius i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and Im in the hacking process atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.

ChannelFireball We know, just giving you a hard time. Times haven’t been hard enough lately. I wish I had a sarcasm font. Edit: Also, the title said you didn’t *draft* blue. You drafted two blue cards, even if one is a metamorph and doesn’t count. But we love you anyway, you keep making any vids and I’ll keep watching them. Pedants of the world, present solidarity to one another, but not literally unite!
Even despite the audio issues this for me is one of the all time great cube videos. It had really diverse matchups, a very interesting drafting portion, and close, intense games. I also just love me a good Recurring Nightmare/Survival deck.
It was only for a month. CFB always tries to stockpile a bunch of these and release them over time since they get the most views lol. I agree is annoying they remove it. But at the same time it makes it more special when its here.
Nooo. Opponent played so well in match 2 until that Survival name with Revoker. I actually was really impressed with their heads up plays up to that point.
I appreciate that the further from his standard strategy he deviates, the more the titles change from the standard. Who knows what the title will be when he drafts mono white?
“My Weenies On Display?” “Tithe Taken?” (When he has both mana tithe and tithe taker.) Or simply... “Cats.” (When he has all of the Ajanis and a few cats.)
My favorite thing about watching LSV is when he starts explaining pitfalls and errors before the opponent even makes them. "they are going to gain 7 and go get a creature but the thing is they have to play the creature they get or Lili will eat it." *opponent proceeds to get a creature they can't play and realizes their mistake and concedes* There is just so much power in understanding all angles of a game of magic that can happen. I remember teaching someone about the logic of not playing around something you can't beat anyways. He had made (or well didn't make a play) trying to play around counterspell, but if I had a counterspell he was going to be in a garbage spot where as if I didn't have it he actually had a chance. Good players just make the opponent have the perfect counters. Poor players try to play around plays they can't beat anyways. God players make plays knowing your hand based on decision you did or didn't make and essentially know your hand at all times anyways.
At 1:01:00, would a better play have been to use Recurring Nightmare, sac the Woodfall Primus to get back Metamorph, Metamorph chooses Woodfall Primus. Then you can Nightmare, sac the Metamorph Primus to get back Ravenous Chupacabra, and have the Metamorph persist as a Frost Titan or Dragonlord Atarka? Love watching your cube drafts LSV. Also love it when you sideboard cards into Gaby's drafts when she leaves the room. How can she still trust you enough to not check it?
At 1:03:34, why not Survival for Gonti? It has a (low, admittedly) chance of winning, if you hit Time Walk or Animate Dead, and even if you don't you get some extra information heading into the next game.
I'm curious why he values Coersive Portal over so many other great things in a reanimator deck. I feel like it does a lot less than most of the other cards he could play.
I'm surprised coercive portal was never really on the chopping block for making initial cuts. It's a great card but doesn't really seem to fit the theme or synergies of the deck for me. Sweet deck anyway! Love watching you draft and play.
LSV I never comment on UA-cam videos but if it keeps getting me a cube draft a day I'll comment on every damn one! Im just getting back into magic after not playing since Origins and these have been great refreshers!
match 2 round 1 you should have tutored for oko since your only blue source was in your hand. If they wheel it's a dead card out of your deck, if they don't wheel you get an oko
Eternal Witness (and Recurring Nightmare) actually makes losing the only other blue source not as painful as it seems for Oko. It's still a valid choice, though.
LSV signing off: 'Check CFB for more of the same.' People's usual reaction to that statement: 'Ewww, more of the same.' People's reaction to this statement: 'Sweeet.'
I’m a little confused as to why you rate Coercive Portal so highly and Phyrexian Arena so low (in a previous draft you advised against ever taking it). I can’t believe the life loss is THAT much of a dealbreaker in Vintage cube? I grant Portal has artifact synergies and could be a better pick overall, but surely its not that one is unplayable and the other is great.
i think life matters quite significantly against many decks (its vintage cube but you do face creatures most rounds), but i think in formats like these, with so many playables, it is important to be attentive to cards with SB potential, and arena is one of those. keep in mind that arena turn 3 could cost you like 6 life over a game... that is a lot for a maindeck card.
Hi LSV, i warched and enjoy eveey single of your videos. I have to say that the audio is kind of d-sinc. You should try to fix it. Thank you and love you
Probably good when playing a little loose against Atarka and Frost Titan? You Chubacabra'd Atarka when you said your plan was to Metamorph it, but since it was already an Oko Elk wouldn't the Metamorph have just entered as a 3/3 Atarka Elk?
No, Metamorph will copy the printed text of what it's copying (plus any other copy effects, but no other ones are applicable here). Oko's changes are type, ability, and p/t changes, which are further down in the layers systems and so are not part of the copied information.
Doesn't matter if he had Oko, he passed Riftwing Cloudskate so yeah he didn't draft blue, that title though lol, btw he posted a 4-color non-blue Strip Mine deck sometime I think last week, it was beautiful.
Been enjoying the videos but your audio is about a second ahead of your video... it means I hear your reaction to your draw step before I see it which makes it less suspenseful! Any way to sync up your audio and video?
For someone who hates phyrexian arena as much as you do, I always find it interesting when you jump on portal so hard. I get that it’s slightly better in some ways
I reluctantly played Fiend Artisan and surprisingly thought it overperformed in a Recurring Nightmare deck. Fetch up Zealous Conscripts and keep bringing it back, gg!
@@ChannelFireball I think I speak for everyone that we really appreciate the effort and would love to see if maybe two or three more would do the trick.
Hindsight is 20/20 but I cant help but wondering how M3G1 would have went if you metamorphed the Primeval Titan rather than discarding it. Going up two extra lands would have opened up a lot of plays.
Please LSV ....PLEASE play Living Death sometime...throwback to my favorite Standard deck of all time! Awesome draft though! (Typing this at end of draft before I see the matches)
Even in the drafts where lsv doesn't draft blue he drafts blue. Impressive
Third pick blue card is exactly what this deck needed
you prolly dont care at all but does anyone know of a way to get back into an instagram account..?

@Anders Julius it did the trick and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thanks so much, you really help me out !
Admit it, this is just LSV narrating a Reid Duke draft
You got us.
GG! I was the third opponent, so nervous playing against the master himself!! It was really fun and was such a special birthday treat! Thank you!!
GG's! Very close games (LSV)
So when he was going to metamorph the atarka @ 1:01:00 (during your match), would he not have just got a 3/3 elk bc of the oko effect?

"An LSV Vintage Cube Video Where He Doesn't Draft Blue"
LSV: Fourth-pick Oko
I came for this comment lol
@I came here to say this, but I knew in my heart it had already been said
Same here. To all of you.
My deck definitely was not a blue deck, even if I did take and play an Oko (alongside 22 green/black cards) (LSV)
ChannelFireball We know, just giving you a hard time. Times haven’t been hard enough lately. I wish I had a sarcasm font.
Edit: Also, the title said you didn’t *draft* blue. You drafted two blue cards, even if one is a metamorph and doesn’t count. But we love you anyway, you keep making any vids and I’ll keep watching them.
Pedants of the world, present solidarity to one another, but not literally unite!
Love these, but will the audio ever be fixed to correctly match video?
LSV is a precog
Thank you! Him naming cards that haven't hit the battlefield is so triggering
LSV Vintage cube drafts is peak UA-cam content.
Even despite the audio issues this for me is one of the all time great cube videos. It had really diverse matchups, a very interesting drafting portion, and close, intense games. I also just love me a good Recurring Nightmare/Survival deck.
all these cube drafts convinced me to finally boot MTGO back up for the first time in like a year. Cube is gone. Classic.
It was only for a month. CFB always tries to stockpile a bunch of these and release them over time since they get the most views lol.
I agree is annoying they remove it. But at the same time it makes it more special when its here.
July and December are the two cube months. Christmas and Christmas-in-July 🤣
This video deserves a like for the title alone.
Except for the clickbait... There IS blue in this deck. I am disappointed...
Two cards! 😆
When LSV said “Sorry Cloudscate”.... I FELT THAT
"Living the recurring nightmare dreams." Love the irony
"I think that's pretty great. I'm certainly in to it"
Nooo. Opponent played so well in match 2 until that Survival name with Revoker. I actually was really impressed with their heads up plays up to that point.
Rec-Sur is one of my all time favourites, and we had that sweet Strip Mine deck a few days ago... What a treat this Vintage cube season has been
Golly you sure do have a lot of drafts where you say "I don't draft mind twist often"
You keep us grounded in these trying times. Thank you LSV.
"We tried so hard and got so far, but in the end it didn't even matter." - you, Sir, have reached sainthood.
This is up there as one of my favorite lsv vintage cubes. Just SO MANY sick games.
LSV videos and out of sync audio
Name a more iconic duo
I appreciate that the further from his standard strategy he deviates, the more the titles change from the standard. Who knows what the title will be when he drafts mono white?
“My Weenies On Display?”
“Tithe Taken?” (When he has both mana tithe and tithe taker.)
Or simply... “Cats.” (When he has all of the Ajanis and a few cats.)
It'll be a regular title, but written in white text on a white background.
Praise the Sun Titan
Deal, we will keep watching if you keep making them!!!
25:30 I love it when a deck comes together like this. Fantastic stuff.
My favorite thing about watching LSV is when he starts explaining pitfalls and errors before the opponent even makes them.

It looks like Brainstorm is actually his desktop background. Not a bad choice.

@@etiennevanier Oh man! I've been going frame by frame trying to figure out if I'm getting Fight Club'd!
going back and revisiting LSV drafts gives me life, I want these to return very much
Rec sur was one of my all-time favorite decks good it see it in a cube
This is obviously a bot. The real LSV would never draft non-blue
It's a blue deck, lol
He still drafted oko so its not nonblue lol
Most impressive deepfake I've ever experienced

LSV in my favorite Vintage Cube Archetype? Yes please
I love watching your vintage cube drafts keep making more
At 1:03:34, why not Survival for Gonti? It has a (low, admittedly) chance of winning, if you hit Time Walk or Animate Dead, and even if you don't you get some extra information heading into the next game.
Who doesn't love seeing some of the best in the world playing with some of the best cards
Thank you LSV I will always keep watching these don’t ever stop !
if someone is known for forcing blue every draft and they show up without blue, it means they have the holy nuts
I’ll keep watching and commenting for the algorithms to tell you to keep making these vids

in decks with lots of mana acceleration, having a "planeswalker" that cant be attacked and constantly gives you cards is awesome
25:53
"Into Wheel of Fortune?! That's unfortunate"
Friggin love gonti!!! Windmill slamming gonterz against the blue decks is too much fun!
LSV I never comment on UA-cam videos but if it keeps getting me a cube draft a day I'll comment on every damn one! Im just getting back into magic after not playing since Origins and these have been great refreshers!
Welcome back!
You keep making them I'll keep learning.
match 2 round 1 you should have tutored for oko since your only blue source was in your hand. If they wheel it's a dead card out of your deck, if they don't wheel you get an oko
Eternal Witness (and Recurring Nightmare) actually makes losing the only other blue source not as painful as it seems for Oko. It's still a valid choice, though.
that's sort of how I felt. I think either a bomb treating DT like an entomb there or Oko.
Keep making them and I'll keep liking them
I hope the person next to LSV has a sweet high tide + TYS deck.
If I had a djinns wishes, one of them would be for more lsv drafts
Wall of Roots blocks for you and gives you mana. I just realized it's the Giving Tree.
Incredible deck and incredible games!!!
This is my favorite draft that I have seen in Vintage Draft. Everyone sleeps on recurring nightmare/survival combo.

loving the sweet content! audio is not synced tho :(
Living all the dreams with this deck?
What a Recurring Nightmare for your opponents! 40:20.
This is great lsv. I am going to sign up for CFB Pro just ro show my appreciation
Appreciate it!
Nothing as beautiful as RecSur in the hand of a capable player.
MOAR PLZ!! this is the only reason I subscribe
No one:
LSV: " I tried so haaarrdddd, and it doesn't even matter."
No clicbait could make me clic faster on a video than "LSV DOESN'T DRAFT BLUE"
LSV - Lies , Sex, Violence 🤣
If you were to take a card with mesmeric fiend and then turned it into an elk with Oko, is the card you took from them gone forever?
that was a freaking sweet draft. almost better than some of the old storm decks you won with a few years back
58:30 Vamp or Demonic for a land instead of Oko would've played out nicely, haha.
I feel so spoiled getting all these LSV cube videos. These videos are the only reason I made an MTGO account just to play cube.
passing the thousand year storm, actual gentleman
Doesn't Metamorph copy a 3/3 Elk named Dragonlord Atarka, whick would mean it's the worst thing to Metamorph?
I’m a little confused as to why you rate Coercive Portal so highly and Phyrexian Arena so low (in a previous draft you advised against ever taking it).

Portal is cheaper and can be played in better decks.
@@swiftdragonrider cheaper? What does currency have to do with a card's cube-viability?
Portal is colorless so it slides into any deck. Colorless cards are at a high priority pick for everyone at the table you you must take them early.
@@pairot01 ya being colorless is a pretty substantial advantage
lsv the only one who takes portal as a wrath effect
This archetype is amazing. And here I was thinking monobrown was the furthest you could go from the "good blue stuff" mainstream in cube...
Minor audio issues. Video behind like 2-3 seconds
youve made so many of these lately.. my cup runneth over!
Hi LSV, i warched and enjoy eveey single of your videos. I have to say that the audio is kind of d-sinc. You should try to fix it. Thank you and love you
I absolutely love the name of this video!!!!
Copying an elked Atarka with Metamorph. Wouldnt you get just a 3/3 without abilities?
when is the next Vintage Cube?
Probably good when playing a little loose against Atarka and Frost Titan? You Chubacabra'd Atarka when you said your plan was to Metamorph it, but since it was already an Oko Elk wouldn't the Metamorph have just entered as a 3/3 Atarka Elk?

man I really wanted to know what happened when u copied an elkified creature. Does it come out Atarka or does it come out Elktarka?
Match 2 game 2 why not entomb prime time?
Doesn't matter if he had Oko, he passed Riftwing Cloudskate so yeah he didn't draft blue, that title though lol, btw he posted a 4-color non-blue Strip Mine deck sometime I think last week, it was beautiful.
Very cool deck to watch. I don’t see it often.
re-ocurring nightmare survival deck :); looks a lot like many of my legacy and EDH decks cuz I love reanimator/ graveyard strategies.
1:04 could have taken Gonti and tried to hit a time walk or something off the op. Never know.

I see we are on a quest to find out if there is such a thing as to many lsv vintage cube draft video's.
Spoiler: no.
It was worth a shot.
@@ChannelFireball I think I speak for everyone that we really appreciate the effort and would love to see if maybe two or three more would do the trick.
Around 1:01:50 you can't copy Atarka, because there is only Elk. So copying the Frost Titan is fine.
Love these videos. Great plays (we all forget to copy Atarkas once in a while) and great commentary!
At first I thought the title was "ALL LSV Vintage Cube Videos Where He Doesn't Draft Blue"
I mean, this is probably the only one. So it IS comprehensive.
WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH LSV?!
I'm worried about LSV. He is not himself.
Hindsight is 20/20 but I cant help but wondering how M3G1 would have went if you metamorphed the Primeval Titan rather than discarding it. Going up two extra lands would have opened up a lot of plays.
M3G2 I am honestly shocked DT for Mox Diamond wasnt the play. Oko can take care of the tree speaker if they want to dump mana into it.
Love the demonic for Oko, then draw Survival and elect for that route instead :D
I'll just keep watching them, even if you don't draft blue
I love this kind of value deck
Love the drafts LSV thanks 🙏
Please LSV ....PLEASE play Living Death sometime...throwback to my favorite Standard deck of all time! Awesome draft though! (Typing this at end of draft before I see the matches)
I saw the title and didn’t believe it
not taking ashen rider with the perfect deck for it really physically hurt me
Simplemente genial el deck y las jugadas logradas más aún partidas repontadas un genio saludos sin azul xd
Recurring Nightmare is such a sick card
Great title.
