"I kinda have my eye on that Affectionate Indrik"
It has his eye on you too, Reid
I think I've figured out these GRN drafts:
1. Just assume Golgari is open.
2. Draft a good or great Golgari deck.
3. Go 1-2.
40 Islands beats a good Golgari deck in this format.
"Would rather have the lesson than save my embarrasment" Wow, an insight to the mentality of champion
"Impressive, isn't it!" - Reid Duke when casting Camraderie with 1 creature. Reid is a legend!
he's got a fantastic attitude
The nature sounds in the background are very calming
"I would much rather have the lesson than save my embarassment." Words of wisdom in a MtG video, what do you know.
Still waiting for Assassin's Trophy Jund from Reid...
This, PLEASE
PLEASEE
Bard Narson ask is bowling trophy jund worthy? Reid Duke great player! Jund Great deck!
I'd bet on him only running 2 or so in his 75. Maybe in sideboard. It's a great card, but it isn't going to affect Jund that much. Abrupt Decay still has more upside for modern, imo.
If we first picked the deadweight over the vindicator I'm almost 100% we then go on to make the potentially sweet golgari deck, given our pick 2 would remain the indrik. Quite a strong example here of why it's better to pick the strong mono colour card over the stronger, narrower guild card at the start when we're in the dark about what's being passed.
Thanks for another great video, Reid!
Awwww, really wanted to see that Divine Visitation get picked.
I've been binge watching your challenge videos (grixis, storm, jund). So excited to see a new video!
I can't deny you're a great player Reid, and I love your videos too. But Sometimes i swear you are also THE LUCKIEST player I've ever seen draft.
I really like golgari when you're the only one at the table drafting it. However glowspore shaman is really what you need to get the deck to work. It should have been a common. I had a golgari deck with 3 glowspore and 1 charnel troll. I was also casting my rhizome lurchers on curve as 5/5s
You know your awesome when lamb of god names a song after you . Well for the most part.
Well....guess I'm not getting any work done for the next hour and 42 minutes.
Watch MTG content at 1.25x speed or higher.
Great play by the opponent to save the spybug on game 3. Shame it wasn't enough.
I think swift blade was extremely worth putting in the deck especially with Bounty of Might, sunholm stalwart, and camaraderie
Austin Millard I disagree, given how light his red splash was. How good is it on turn six? Is it worth having a dead card in your hand until you draw your splash color just because you may semi-combo it with a pump spell? I don't think so.
I feel like you could have played some number of severed strands off of civic wayfinder, 1 golgari guildgate, and gateway plaza. You have enough tokes (sworn companions, witness, portcullis) to support it too.
I think I would have more seriously considered splashing the vindicator, just for the hilarity with bounty of might.
My favorite players are Reid Duke, LSV, Owen Turtenwald, Huey Jensen, Jon Finkel and Yuuya Watanabe to name a few. Hopefully this draft goes better than the one where you faced a brutal Izzet deck
Man I would not have had the discipline to pick a rock charger over a mythic card that turns token into angels.
I definitely think the indrik was correct pick 2. It's a good uncommon making it less likely to show up again than capture no sphere and like you said in the video, its good in both Izzet and golgari whereas the phantasm is really only good in dimir. Also, I actually think the sheildmate does more for selesnya than the woodshaper. The woodshaper is card advantage but the stats are so bad and I think vigilance is severely underrated for selesnya because it's so good with convoke
I would have considered dropping the red and going just selesnya halfway through pack three, if not earlier on. Picking bounty agent over guildgate, having a deck that whereas not stellar doesn't have to splash red, and may splash black if the right cards keep flowing.
Justice strike is worth the splash any day but I agree with agent over gate 100%.
I hate how every guild except selensnya got a lot of great commons and uncommons to complete their gameplan. In every other guild, there is a lot of cards to make them viable but it seems selesnya only has search companions which isn’t even a top tier card, and very little other cards that produce tokens.
It sounds as though you have a stereo microphone and I can hear when you move to the left side of it. If there is an option to switch to mono, please consider using that. Also, the mouse clicks and keyboard noises come through quite loudly.
@1:01:00 I might have played the land first, and then had crush up for whatever the next surveil effect would be, and nab the campaign in response to it?
Do any if you guys get the audio cut from time to time for just a milisecond making it really annoying?
Interesting draft, great commentary too!
P.S.
Do you live in an aviary? Lol
Hmm, I wonder if Reid should have gone with the dead weight and splashed black or gone golgari and splashed white.
Also, 4 R sources already without playing any basic mountains. I don't think you should have played any (cut the 1 suggested for a Forest).
No mention of the Swiftblade Vindicator+Bounty of Might combo for 20 trampling damage makes me sad.
Come on... Circuitous Route...
good vid (Y)
Bounty Agent though...
Think you could have moved to golgari late pack 1.
Black seemed super open?
very confused you did not jump into golgari it was soooooo open could have had a crazy good deck
i mean then you could go 1/2 with a golgari deck!
is that a laptop spacebar thumping in the background.... ? :/ great commentary and stuff, it really helps me learn about the game, but the co-commentary from the mouse and keyboard is eh
Pick 5 pack 1, you don't even mention the Arboretum Elemental.
I feel like it is a slam dunk pick for your Selesnya deck over 2/2 dork and 2/1 4 mana value card.
Can you please explain to me why you rate Arboretum lower than the others? In general and in this specific spot.
Bounty is filthy in constructed
What the hell so many lurchers.
Anyone waiting for Jund/Abzan league from the Jund Father himself
I know reid was in pack three and fully into his mediocre draft thing but he passed a Thousand-year storm. :o
52:05 why did you gave +6/+6 to the roc??
surveil gives +1+1 to bug
You're right! It wouldn't have killed both blockers otherwise
sweet
I love Reid, but this draft was done trainwrecky tunnelvision. He even states late pack 1 that Golgari is open, and it didn't seem like anyone was in GB. Yet he sticks to selesnya for... what? A guildmage? The literal worst guildmage?
He was passing great black and Golgari cards left and right when there was nothing to pull him into Selesnya which is already the worst guild.
Great player, bad draft.
Pack 1 pick 3, guildmage over assassin, I think I would do this also. the assassin is fine but Golgari I feel is the weakest guild unless 100% open (also the assassin does come back around)
Pack 2 pick 4 peacemaker over deadly visit, sure visit is just stronger but worth getting ride of his white cards so far? maybe he is losing 4 decent white cards and peacemaker is pretty decent.
Pack 3 pick 3 Charger over visit, and now it's just too late to switch he would be giving now bonds, stalwarts, and charger in this pack along to switch in black.
So outside of lurchers that were going late, what amazing g/b cards were really going around? (I mean the only good ones I saw were the 2 visits and statue and 2 of those were is pack 3) I mean sure there might have been some kind of 3 color deck in there but I'm not even sure if that would have been better.
The p1p7 rhizome lurcher at 5:00 was a huge sign that GB was open. That’s a premium card from my experience. Idk why Reid ignored the GB signals :/ White was not open at all pack 1
I disagree, I didn't see any clear sign gb was more open than gw for a long time, and a Guildmage may not be much, but it is something. If anything ai'd have gone into gbw instead of grw. Lurcher is just fine until the late game, and often ends up being played as a four mana 2/2 or 3/3, unexciting.
While I agree that maybe there was a gbw deck, I disagree that lurcher will be played as a 4 mana 2/2 or even 3/3.
@@melissacoats6855 I've seen countless drafts of this format, you often just can't afford to skip too many drops, and would rather play a four mana 2/2 than nothing on turn four if you have no better option.
Divine visitation noooooooooooooo.
OMG dude please these drafts are killing me. BGX with Trophy PLEASE
reid seems to massively overvalue gates. They're not worth taking over solid playables unless you need the splash.
knows his Vindicator is a dead card; takes Boros Guildgate over the Rupture Spire land.
Proceeds to pass all sorts of Golgari for 2 1/2 packs of the draft.
Be patient?! Dimir has better cards than you. You should have been getting in with Indrik for 2 turns
Sure are a lot of negative opinions on his draft from people who probably have never even gone to a ptq lol
plz play arena
