NINE LIVES If there are multiple Nine Lives on the battlefield, MTG Arena will automatically apply replacement effects to keep them all as far away from nine counters as possible, even when taking damage from multiple sources at the same time (e.g. combat damage). taken from today's patch notes. the answe to the 2xnine lives behavior on your game. makes the card a bit better imho.
The big problem with nine lives is that things like Ugin and Ruinous ultimatum can just get rid of them despite the hexproof, causing the opponent to lose immediately.
Oh also, I think "apotheosis" would be a better word than "epitome" here. And since it shares more sounds with "antithesis", it is more likely that this is what he actually wanted to say.
At 56:00, I almost died of laughter hearing that there was a cooler kids club, since I was listening to that at 2x speed. All jokes aside, I love the deck CGB. Trust me, I am a part of the cool kids club, just not the cooler kids club.
22:40 He doesn't have to kill Teferi to do what you're talking about. By the time the Nine Lives triggers are on the stack after Ugin wiped them, Teferi will be gone and he can cast Discontinuity.
Watched the final game in 0.25x speed because I was watching the stream and knew what I was in for. It just gave me more time to revel in how annoying this deck is. I have most of the cards and I might craft the rest just so I can play this during "Casual" direct challenges with my friends. Loving the content!
"Cool Kids Club" + level up! "Cooler" achieved I really liked that last game. Maybe make that a thing from time to time. Play against guest opponents with decks that pair well. I'd watch that every time.
He mentioned in the stream that there were technical issues with the account, so they had to give him an account just named CGB to get it going on time
I regret not being on twitch to see this live, but if magic has taught me anything it is not to dwell on past misplays but to learn from them. Love you CGB
Oh man CGB this was one of the best videos I’ve seen in a while. Love your content. Been around for a while now, glad I’ve stayed. I’ll keep watching that daily content.
Wow, that Shrine game was insane. Sad I missed the charity stream. Love Grand Traverse, although I haven't visited in ages. My wife still tries to get up to Brys Estate Vineyard every chance she gets though, hahaha. Super great cause, you and your wife are good people.
It's replacing taking damage by putting a counter on it. After the first replaces the damage, the second has nothing to replace. [616.1] If two or more replacement and/or prevention effects are attempting to modify the way an event affects an object or player, the affected object’s controller (or its owner if it has no controller) or the affected player chooses one to apply, following the steps listed below. If two or more players have to make these choices at the same time, choices are made in APNAP order (see rule 101.4). This is different for doubling damage: If damage is replaced by double damage, the second effect still sees damage, so it is still applicable. [616.1e] Once the chosen effect has been applied, this process is repeated (taking into account only replacement or prevention effects that would now be applicable)
My variant has Soldevi Simulacrum and Ugin. The former is just nuts with a recurring Yorion, hitting lands end of turn after end of turn, compressing your deck and drawing into threats.
That's like a testament to how broken Dream Trawler is. The opponent played one Dream Trawler and literally stopped playing afterwards, they lasted a billion turns and you were still struggling to damage them even a little while having semi-infinite loops set up...
Your wife sounds like an awesome woman, supporting your steaming career and even getting onboard with matching that $500 donation! You're a lucky man, CGB.
I played magic today and I have to say, the new Teferi and the Card Teferi's ageless insight (basically whenever you draw a card, draw a card again (cathartic reunion draws 6)) are completely broken. Defenitely going to be some bans (defenitely ageless insight, probably not the new teferi)
Hey CGB, love your content man (: U are a rly genius man. May u can make a guide how to build a good deck, or u just recording while u build a deck and comment this. It would be Soo cool and helpfully
CGB: Look at my wildcards! Me: looks at the 15K each wildcards. Me: Huh. I had 20K wildcards in my account during the event. Guess CGB used more wildcards than me in the last few events and I used more gems to get the 100 pack deal with gems. Good seeing you again, man.
The player doesn't seem to choose, the counters on Nine Lives just alternate I think. It makes sense that for each creature only one Nine Lives gets a counter (because once damage has been prevented, it wouldn't deal damage anymore), but the alternation between the 2 seems weird, considering it might as well just put all the counters on one.
"I don't like the answer I got, so I want the head judge". Yep CGB has definitely played tournaments
Yep felt that in my judge soul lol
hey cgb i think you missed lethal in that last match on the turn you surrendered
CGBs proudest moment in magic ever at 1:00:28. Thanks for sharing that with us.
"Patience is my win con." oh no....
CGB did all that work to his friend, just to throw it all away truly he is the next level gamer

One of them has more counters because it was on the battlefield before.
@@creakybeak1252 yeah so it'll try to balance them out is what the original comment is saying
The big problem with nine lives is that things like Ugin and Ruinous ultimatum can just get rid of them despite the hexproof, causing the opponent to lose immediately.
1:41 Antithesis means the complete opposite. I think you meant the epitome of annoying.
He's still learning 😭
the correct word was the antithesis of antithesis
I wasn't going to post a comment about this, but I will gladly reply to your comment to agree with you!
Oh also, I think "apotheosis" would be a better word than "epitome" here. And since it shares more sounds with "antithesis", it is more likely that this is what he actually wanted to say.
@@CanuckMonkey13 I don't think "apotheosis" fit here. As far as I know, apotheosis means "to become God"
Boy, UA-cam really knows your demographic: inserting those Georgio Armani ads into your video was unmitigated genius.
At 56:00, I almost died of laughter hearing that there was a cooler kids club, since I was listening to that at 2x speed. All jokes aside, I love the deck CGB. Trust me, I am a part of the cool kids club, just not the cooler kids club.
Most brutal abuse of ECD i've ever seen.
Respect!
I get nightmares just thinking of ever facing this deck.
All control decks are nightmare fuel, imagine sitting down to play the game, to not play the game at all
22:40 He doesn't have to kill Teferi to do what you're talking about. By the time the Nine Lives triggers are on the stack after Ugin wiped them, Teferi will be gone and he can cast Discontinuity.
every teferi player should pay for abuse victims.
i laughed so hard 😂
Called out for watching at 1x speed lol.
Watched the final game in 0.25x speed because I was watching the stream and knew what I was in for. It just gave me more time to revel in how annoying this deck is. I have most of the cards and I might craft the rest just so I can play this during "Casual" direct challenges with my friends. Loving the content!
"Anyone still watching this at 1x speed?" You fool, I *always* watch the videos at 1.5x speed!
i am
not cool bro
I do 1.25 and tap arrow to scroll through lulls
"Cool Kids Club" + level up!
"Cooler" achieved
I really liked that last game. Maybe make that a thing from time to time. Play against guest opponents with decks that pair well. I'd watch that every time.
like a deck sommelier
I enjoyed it a lot.
Congrats on the charity, and the event stream..... Man what a game that was.. thanx as always.
Love it!
SO excited for M21. It has been a blast so far!
'Abzan? Who plays Abzan?'
I feel like I need to a Long Rest after that last game..
Coming back here this morning. This deck just makes me soooooo freaking happy
Regular speed, sound on, entire video! Loved it!
So how did everyone else end up with VIP at the end of their names except CGB?
He mentioned in the stream that there were technical issues with the account, so they had to give him an account just named CGB to get it going on time
a real vip doesn't need to write it down brooo
I saw one other player without the _VIP appended to their name, it was one of Ethan's opponents in his draft on the Lords of Limited channel.
He’s unimportant, he enjoys counterspells
such a humble guy. keep it up cgb!
poor man, magic is where friendships end
I regret not being on twitch to see this live, but if magic has taught me anything it is not to dwell on past misplays but to learn from them.
Love you CGB
I saw this live and I'm back here watching it again. This was FANTASTIC.
Good on you for the charity donation. Very awesome CGB!!
Oh man CGB this was one of the best videos I’ve seen in a while. Love your content. Been around for a while now, glad I’ve stayed. I’ll keep watching that daily content.

The match vs arenacraftpodcast was amazing, really fun.
CGB's face when dream trawler dropped out of that shrine nonsense...lol
I'm a proud member of the Cooler kids club
I love that you upload quality content everyday mate. You're the best
That last game was amazing. I love those sorts of super long games.
when the streamer gives you the feeling that you are stupid cause you make it throughthe video on normal speed ... :D
Rofl, I guess I'm part of the cooler kids' club 56:00 the hero :D
56:32 I watched the UW fireball at regular speed; this is a child's play 😂
Facts
Dude, you flippin the bird was priceless.
Love it as alway! Another great video... Thanks Aaron..... :-)
Love see the banter between you and Arjuna. This decks looks nasty. Comment for the algorithm day 16
That manhandling of Crokeyz was masterful
THAT LAST GAME WAS SICKK
This .. this is just beautiful

Can confirm, deck is strong, contracted cancer just by watching this vid 👍
Not 10 seconds in and you had me with 'Teferi' and 'Worse'
I love coming back to the Arena Craft Grudge Match
Yeah! Coolest kids. lol It was funny watching the last until the very end.
I usually watch your videos at 2x speed. This one I watched at 1x because of all the blinks and evil pleasure in all those Elspeth triggers.
My variant has Soldevi Simulacrum and Ugin.
The former is just nuts with a recurring Yorion, hitting lands end of turn after end of turn, compressing your deck and drawing into threats.
That's like a testament to how broken Dream Trawler is. The opponent played one Dream Trawler and literally stopped playing afterwards, they lasted a billion turns and you were still struggling to damage them even a little while having semi-infinite loops set up...
geez CGB is like the cutest mtg youtuber actually
Arena craft podcast shoutouts and the match I hope to hear all about next episode
CGB just called me top-tier cool, I can now die happy
CGB´s hair today is true sight to behold
Thank's man.. i need more of these games..
We are all waiting for the 24Feri deck! Make it happen!
The Cooler Kids Club = Top tier cool XD
end of those last game was just one of the most epic things i witnessed in a couple of days!
I feel like I ranked up in CGB fandom. Call me Cooler Daniel from now on!
CGB : I don't want to walk into a counter spell
Me: YOLO
I love that you used no counter spells in the creation of your annoyance, sir.
Haha, you bugger you had to do it.....bloody teferi again! Teferi saps my will to live!
Feel bad for Arjuna :(
I need that shrine decklist. It looks fun.
The first rule of coolest club is... .....
It'sa me, it'sa CGB!
Cooler kids club unite !
I'm here!
:D
me
Your wife sounds like an awesome woman, supporting your steaming career and even getting onboard with matching that $500 donation! You're a lucky man, CGB.
Awesome game at the end. Glad to be cooler
I'm curious to see what you do with mill
I want to see a Jeskai adaptation of this deck with Terror of the Peaks and Vantress Gargoyle thrown in.
I watch everything but music at 2x speed.
Nightcore MTG
Wow, that plot twist at the end. Have not seen anything like that since The Prodigy's Smack My B*tch Up video.
1x speed squad represent lol
I played magic today and I have to say, the new Teferi and the Card Teferi's ageless insight (basically whenever you draw a card, draw a card again (cathartic reunion draws 6)) are completely broken. Defenitely going to be some bans (defenitely ageless insight, probably not the new teferi)
Wait, so if I am re-watching this on normal speed all the way through, does that mean I am THE Coolest Kid?
Yes
for the 9lives good in multiples: is the reason that the nine lives player can choose which instance of prevent all dmg is applied first?
aaaannnd commented too soon
Hey CGB, love your content man (:
U are a rly genius man.
May u can make a guide how to build a good deck, or u just recording while u build a deck and comment this. It would be Soo cool and helpfully
He called me top tear cool while playing control hell. I feel so glad.
CGB you are best and i realy love you and always be with you ty for anything
This deck needs a copy of speaker of the heavens
What's a good sideboard for this deck?
How do you add Ugin to this? What do you suggest?
I'm always part of the top tier cool-cooler kids club because It prevents me from actually working :D
loved the last game
Tier 0 Cool Kids Club member
Okay, so technically CGB did lose to the Shrines deck. Now he has to bow to its power on the next Arena Craft podcast.
This is the kind of deck I like to watch be played. Also Jank
Great video and games. I hate the doggo tho.
Achievement unlocked :Cooler kids club
Of course I'm watching this regular speed with volume ! How else am I meant to hear your witty banter
The game against Podcast. Pure Entertainment.
CGB: Look at my wildcards!
Me: looks at the 15K each wildcards.
Me: Huh. I had 20K wildcards in my account during the event. Guess CGB used more wildcards than me in the last few events and I used more gems to get the 100 pack deal with gems.
Good seeing you again, man.
I'm in the cooler kids club. Yay.
Is it just me or is there anyone else watching videos on 2x speed just regularly? like, for all videos?
The player doesn't seem to choose, the counters on Nine Lives just alternate I think. It makes sense that for each creature only one Nine Lives gets a counter (because once damage has been prevented, it wouldn't deal damage anymore), but the alternation between the 2 seems weird, considering it might as well just put all the counters on one.
