Board wipes have a way of doing that to a guy. I would have kept trying just to test the long term effectiveness of Nissa's ultimate as well as M.G. :)
i was wondering the same thing. I agree with spirtguide, he was probably still worrying about losing all his lands forgeting about the ones he just got. It was a semi-rage quit
Man, that punt at 40:00 felt so bad. Your whole plan is drop a ton of planeswalkers, and counter their stuff. And you don't get down the one pw that benefits the most from that plan.
Man you shouldn’t have scooped after the massacre girl. You had way better boardstate than he did even after. All those plainswalkers and 7 lands. Imagine drawing a hydra next turn...
I made a similar iteration of this deck and found that board wipes are one of the best things that can happen to the deck. I have Tezzeret in the deck in place of Kasmina and a few Saheeli's, so with him, Ugin and NIssa out there is almost no way you can lose. I got Massacre Girled the other day, lost a ton of creatures (something like 5 or 6) as well as a hydra, also cleared my opponents board, on the next turn thanks to those plainswalkers and a Tamiyo I drew, I was able to get a 1/1 flyer, a 2/2 manifest, 3/3 land, and a 20/20ish hydra out. The deck is surprisingly good against board wipes and with all the mana dorks there is plenty to chump or trade with depending on the deck. I have found the best way to win with the deck is either big hydra, or chump till you can ultimate Tezzeret/Nissa. This (or something like the deck Seth plays) is my new favorite deck for sure.
This is a pretty cool build for the hydra deck. I have my own version and this opens my eyes a bit more because you're using different kinds of lands such as Karn's and Mobilized District and the artifact: Saheeli. I only considered looking at creatures and spells. Thanks for the inspiration. :) Keep up the vids man!
I have to wonder... why not include some Krasis, since you're in Simic and you're ramping a lot? Does it hurt the budget? Just wanted to go all-in on the one hydra?
1:01:25 why not negate the thought erasure to deny the surveil? seems just, strictly better. they're not playing a ground haste threat to get blocked by the mobilized district you have to tap to activate
Adding in spark's double or 2-4 interplannar beacons? Just wondering. And why are their 25 lands? Totally not accusational just wondering because I'm running this.
I don't understand how people say Seth is bad when he hits mythic or near mythic playing mostly jank. He isnt bad, he is human and he makes mistakes playing countless hours of magic. It is bound to happen to anyone.
Mistakes happen that is true. However scooping because you got wrathed when the position is still healthy is what annoys people. We all love MTG Goldfish because of the crazy decks, the amount of content created. Still want to see the Seth play the games and not just scoop.
Sorry I'm tardy to the party, but I have 2 questions. 1) does this stand up in m20 and if not, can you update for it? 2) with this many walkers, why no bacons? That life gain per would help immensely against red.
Great stuff Seth! I've been playing a version of this but without Mobilized Districts or Samus. Without them, I can see why my build is the way it is! Why is it you prefer Paradise Druid over Incubation Druid? When siding you would cut Incubation over Paradise.
I like the resilience of Paradise Druid. It's less explosive, but in this deck we don't have any Hydroid Krasis (or really anything above six mana, and not much above five). In decks with big X-spells the risk of Incubation Druid is worth the chance it dies, in this deck I think having a hexproof mana dork (even one that is less explosive) is better.
I see that a lot in Arena, it as if rather than play a long, drawn out, even, (see also FUN game) they just want a quick win. Not everyone is a Duelist anymore it would seem.
@@atmlsd Not gonna' lie. I darn near gave myself an aneurism building a proper "pauper" deck for the new challenges, please in the Holy name of all that which doth not suck, never. again. (Those stained glass designs ARE sweet though!)
Trying out a new upload schedule with Instant Deck Techs in the morning, gameplay videos in the afternoon and other stuff (like Budget Commander and written articles) at night.
Awesome as always and proof I was right about the hydra being decent. Everything dies to removal isn't an argument vs. a 16/16 trampler turn 3 sometimes :-)
I want to agree because this is a cool deck, but it does die to removal. Black: "Destroy Target Creature". Boom, it's gone. But he accounts for that with haste and counter.
It's in progress, but the basic idea is to have gameplay videos go up in the afternoon rather than at 11pm EST so it's easier for everyone to watch when they have time (and without staying up in the middle of the night).
There's a weird bug with Arena audio where it randomly gets staticy, when that happens I usually just turn down the audio rather than letting all of you hear the distortion.
41:11 And greed has once again been punished! SO had *two* chances to *Negate* the opponent's spell(s) and step on their throat and then promptly gets *Frilled* out of the Match(not the game, the MATCH). TL;DR - When your opponent misses a land drop, STEP ON THEIR THROAT!
I thought people had taken it out thanks to Jim Davis! Trostani in the main and Massacre Girl in the side was (I think) the most popular build at the moment.
51:40 That's a strange looking ulamog you got there! 😂
Why scoop to Massacre Girl? 19:20
I think he forgot he had 7 forests in play
Because Seth is bad and should only be watched if you are looking for cringe.
@@mikeyman480 idk bout that tbh. He probably wasn't gonna win that game anyway.

Superfriends is now a budget deck. What a time to be alive.
I'm not sure if it's a good or bad thing, but it is interesting for sure.
Everyone giving you garbage for scooping, but nice play with the Mobilized District at 8:22!
Man, that punt at 40:00 felt so bad. Your whole plan is drop a ton of planeswalkers, and counter their stuff. And you don't get down the one pw that benefits the most from that plan.
WOOOOAAAAAHHHH early budget magic!
"let's wait one more turn. If we draw a land we can leave up a counter."
Gets Countered
"...hmmm.... I think we're going to let this go"
Wooooah, think with the new modern horizon enchantment there could be a budget hydra stompy for modern
Seth pronouncing Kasmina correctly is like my version of asmr
And then he returned to Kishmana.
Man you shouldn’t have scooped after the massacre girl. You had way better boardstate than he did even after. All those plainswalkers and 7 lands. Imagine drawing a hydra next turn...
I thought the same! Come on Seth! We are here to watch you play, not to watch you scoop!
I didnt understand that either... I could see scooping if there wasnt 7 lands

Thought the same thing at first but he needed a blue source as well, they were all forests.

Good luck with the deck!
51:35 Didn’t know Ulamog was in Standard
That turn you didn't attack with the Llanowar cost you that game. #punt
I have to wonder... why not include some Krasis, since you're in Simic and you're ramping a lot? Does it hurt the budget? Just wanted to go all-in on the one hydra?
Jacob Johansen krasis is 40 USD right now
Why didn't atack with elves too? 1:02:00
@MTGGoldfish wait at @32:00 if you mass manip samut and tick him down on any creature isn't that just lethal?
Yeah it was. Common case of casting pre math.
1:01:25 why not negate the thought erasure to deny the surveil? seems just, strictly better. they're not playing a ground haste threat to get blocked by the mobilized district you have to tap to activate
19:20
War of the spark theme song plays:
"I tried so hard, and got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter"
Never heard anyone refer to it that way. If you're not aware, that song is a cover of "In the End" by Linkin Park.
A neutral milk hotel shirt???? Nice!
19:26 definitely an early scoop
completely agree
A 10/10 is big might be my favorite mtg tip ever. 10/10 given on that comment and as we now know that's big :).

Bioessence hydra is the most underatted card of war of the spark !
It is a lot more powerful than it's given credit for!
Ooooo, spicy!
51:40 "Cast Ulamog next turn" lol
Sorry I'm tardy to the party, but I have 2 questions. 1) does this stand up in m20 and if not, can you update for it? 2) with this many walkers, why no bacons? That life gain per would help immensely against red.

@@MTGGoldfish Okay so it's the hexproof! Thanks Seth, I think I'll try that. :)
Why does everyone scoops when they can still win
Especialy the first oppoenent, who tilted against litteraly a fun deck
I see that a lot in Arena, it as if rather than play a long, drawn out, even, (see also FUN game) they just want a quick win. Not everyone is a Duelist anymore it would seem.
A 4-Letter word SALT
I will fight you till the bitter end if for no other reason than I want the most play time for my gems and coins that I can get.
@@atmlsd Not gonna' lie. I darn near gave myself an aneurism building a proper "pauper" deck for the new challenges, please in the Holy name of all that which doth not suck, never. again. (Those stained glass designs ARE sweet though!)
Seth maybe you should do a stream where you can play any deck but the rule is no scoops. What do you think?
On stream I usually don't scoop unless chat gives me permission :)
Nice deck, it reminds me of the ug budget deck sbmtg made. It's different though for sure. I wouldn't call it stompy it's more superfriends?
Was this on accident or are you guys trying a new upload schedule?
Seth announced on twitter that they're moving to a new upload schedule, you can look there for the details
People use Twitter?
Trying out a new upload schedule with Instant Deck Techs in the morning, gameplay videos in the afternoon and other stuff (like Budget Commander and written articles) at night.
What about vivians arkbow to fetch bioessence
That Kishmana thou
Kashmeena*
Stompy huh? Dope.
Wait.... HYDRA!!!
*whispers*
hail hydra
*remembering the sick scene in endgame* hayyy
@@ahunter7563
Hayyy!
My man!
@@ahunter7563 "That's America's ass."
Would it be possible to have modern budget soon?
As soon as Modern Horizons releses, yes!
A fun drinking game. Every time Seth says Bioessence Hydra, take a drink. You'll be dead by 4 minutes.
Sorry, wasn't trying to kill anyone ;)
Would krawsis hydra be good in the deck to?
Possibly but its a 25 dollar card
13:55 What? I thought her name was Kishmana!
Awesome as always and proof I was right about the hydra being decent. Everything dies to removal isn't an argument vs. a 16/16 trampler turn 3 sometimes :-)

missed lethal on 31:45 you should steal Samut and swing for a lethal, Like your videos thank for the hard work.
It costs 6 mana to steal which would tap his attackers...
@@myztik5716 oh yeah i didn't pay attention too mobilized district vigilance
Seth still saying KISHMANA makes me giggle every time
I play a version of this but I focus more on proliferate.
Still gets owned by red 1-on-1 but fun in multi
now that I was getting used to KISHMANA!
No worries, he went back to it eventually.
Is there a new upload schedule in the channel???
It's in progress, but the basic idea is to have gameplay videos go up in the afternoon rather than at 11pm EST so it's easier for everyone to watch when they have time (and without staying up in the middle of the night).
You know you can submit zero with Nyssa right?
I view so much magic content online that all my youtube ads are for penn and teller masterclass..truth.
Is the audio from Arena supposed to be muted? This sounded super weird
Well in my case, there have been issues lately with the game's sfx so maybe that's why it's turned down?
There's a weird bug with Arena audio where it randomly gets staticy, when that happens I usually just turn down the audio rather than letting all of you hear the distortion.
I'll totally take those stickers if you don't want them.
Seth, next stream you are not allowed to scoop. At all. Wait for the bitter end.
Why does he keep playing hinterland harbour tapped on turn one instead of his basics?
Somehow I feel like this set is going to end up being the new version of Mirrodin
Ooh I could see that Massacre Girl coming from a mile away
Yeah, probably could have played around it a bit more somehow.
Early Squad! Can a brother get a Elspeth Tribal on Against the odds?
How is this not called Hail Hydra???
I do like the bioessence hydra
Nice shirt
Have rhonas in there for 20 damage turn 4 possibly
Hail Hydra.
41:11
And greed has once again been punished!

Rip arena sounds in peace
Every time you let auto tapper use your district when you could've used it to get in damage was triggering
Why not cast the negate to stop the surveil why not swing w llanowar when u know he has to block district he would've lost...
I’m already so sick of BGx decks. Hopefully losing the explore package will really shake up the meta come core set 2020.
Explore doesn't rotation until the fall set releases (the one after M20), but explore will rotate thankfully!
Of course I make this deck and days later boom on here lmao
Budget magic: mobilized district
Is that an IAAOTS shirt?
Yep.
Damn... not having breeding pool seems like a big liability to the deck, considering nissa and the possible mass manipulation
I wish that Standard mana wasn't so expensive. Makes budget deck building really hard this season.
Man Mobilize districts so sick
You played 4c Command, you know Massacre Girl is a maindeck card in the deck...
I thought people had taken it out thanks to Jim Davis! Trostani in the main and Massacre Girl in the side was (I think) the most popular build at the moment.
Also, I like how Seth went live on Twitch around the exact same time this video hit my sub box.
XD
Just kind of a funny thing to me.
Yeah, that timing was unfortunate. Going to have to figure that out for the future if we stick to the new upload schedule.
Playing guildgates instead of shocks feel so much worse than normal budget episodes in this Nissa/Mass Manipulation deck.
I like the deck but it is not even similar to stompy. If you call it suicide black it would be the same as calling it stompy.
It has a Hydra, and Hydras are pretty stompy :D
Well this is an early upload.
It's awesome that a stack of mediocre-to-bad Planeswalkers is powerful enough to compete. It is just as terrible that is true.
Somehow this deck plan screams for some Evolution Sages...?
Evolution Sage could be a sweet addition!
Samat?! SamUt
You should have let massacre girl go. I am only here to watch you suffer lol
JK.
Why does he ALWAYS sound like he is on laughing gas? :/ His 'half-laugh' voice is hard to listen too, which sucks since he has decent and fun decks.
God I hate when he early scoops. I mean I get it that you don’t want the videos to go ridiculously long but cmon Seth.
Ha
This deck gets stomped by mono red 90% of the time
Or any deck with spot removal to get rid of the hydra. Why cant I get these opponents when I'm on the ladder? Lol
This is a worse version of mine but ehh
Please do more MTGO, and less arena.
25 rares? Nah too expensive for arena lol
scooping to girl? weak.
Why do you talk like that?
Nobody talks like that.
