Long time MTG player here - I started watching your content from the LOR days, but stayed for the MTG. You've gotten me to look at deckbuilding differently - really appreciate the creativity and explanation of your thought process. Looking forward to more! Cheers.
As a viewer, I am completely okay with more bo3 games and bo3 decks. I just won't be able to craft them as easily as the bo1 decks. But I can't lie, the bo3 matches are more fun to watch.
I have a video idea. What if you made a tier list every month for decks you made during a certain month. Maybe viewers can vote also. It might help you get an easier video since you already know the decks well, and you won’t have to come up with a new deck 1 day of the month. Also I want to know what decks you actually objectively think are better than others and the reason why.
That would be very useful for those, myself included, that can only build one or two decks and thus, must choose. Otherwise, I love most of the decks featured so far, tough choice nonetheless!
Last thing, In theory if you rank one or two of your decks that you put at S-Tier I could see people rewatching that decks video, or people that missed that decks video will watch the video for the first time.
Definitely both! The difference between bo1 and bo3 is big but the reason for wanting both isnt- variance. Because of the sideboard and your ability to showcase another level of your deckbuilding thru that it is awesome to watch.
As a long time viewer and MTG player, who really enjoys playing best of 3, I'd love to see bo3 every now and then! I think a healthy mix between Bo1 and Bo3 would give a good viewing experience for all kinds of players, beginners or experts, casual players and very competitive players. Love your content and your amazing deck ideas!!
Bro! I’ve been stalking your page for days waiting for the new daily Arena vid… you had me hooked! Come back!! Your content is the best! I love the passion, excitement, narration, personality, and of course the deck builds… I’ll be patiently waiting. Cheers my man and hope all is well!
Really like the best of 3, because of the explanations of why cards are swapped in and out. It help when deck building against a specific archetype for me as a new player.
You might mill a card they want in the yard or if you are unlucky mill a land and give them a sick top deck. Like he said sometimes is a felling or knowing the OP deck
@@breakingthewall2112 You're just as likely to mill a key card, preventing a sick top deck. Unless you're against a graveyard deck, or you know their top card is a brick for them, nearly always best to trigger tinybones joins up
I still remember you signing up for a mtg tournament as the sole grixis deck, you definitely were the grixis dude and was one of the bigger mtg youtubers back then, glad to see you back
I have no real preference between Bo3 and Bo1, but I would like to see more Bo3 because the difference in gameplay is interesting. Also, since you mentioned video length, I just wanna weigh in and say that I prefer when the videos are at least 50 mins long.
Bo3 ftw! Definitely prefer this as i believe the quality matches are even higher than Bo1. Feels like a tru test of skill imo. Quality matches as always pal. Sweet deck!
Love this deck, although I mostly prefer and play Bo1 I don't mind the occasional Bo3 deck videos as long as it's not only those kind of decks. I think its really good how you take the time to explain the sideboard!
long time lor watcher, stoped when marvel invaded, came back lately on that taii + lilah video. absolutely loved the content, for real, a lot of great concepts, just wanted to ask you to maybe take a look towards judith carnage conosseur for a deck, hell, maybe she could work in grixis
Bo1 and Bo3 is great to watch. To me, that's also a testament to how much I love watching you as a creator. The only one that I'm certain to watch on a regular basis. I'm just here for the ride, boss, be it LoR, MTG or other stuff Cheers
You nailed it completely man. Bo1 is so designed to make you have a 50 percent win rate, that I swear sometimes it purposely pairs you against the decks that your deck loses to typically.
Yesss bo3 is such a treat, idk if you read my last comment on another videoo but i absolutely loved your grixis bolas deck back then, it made me want to grind to mythic
I would love to see somedl decks made for either bo3 or bo1 and you have a little side note to showcase how you could adapt the deck to be for the other format.
hey.. i would rly love to see more bo3... tbh that is the real magic imho... sideboard guids are sooo nice in magic.. would love to see more of it.. yeah you have more matchups in bo1 but i realy love the deepdive in bo3 and you could if you want just do more videos with one deck in bo3 to show some more matchups OR LONGER VIDEOS!!!!! ^^
Hey, personally I love best of 3 games. Would enjoy 3 games as well, doesn't matter if it is longer than an hour for me. Love your content, thank you!!
I do appreciate Bo3 content, and I do recognize that it's a more balanced way to play mtg, but the big time commitment to this format really shows itself here. Only getting to see you play against two different decks during a video isn't very fun, honestly. In a video about a deck, I would really like to see how it deals with a variety of different opponents - if I'm considering to craft this deck, I would want to see its performance in different scenarios, and if I'm not going to craft this deck, then I'm watching this video for pure entertainment in which case seeing 3 games against the same deck isn't that interesting. I wouldn't mind Bo3 from time to time, but for the reasons above I would prefer if you stuck mostly to Bo1. And when you do make Bo3 videos, I think you could make them longer to include at least three different opponents.
TL,DR: Please both and an idea: A follow up video regarding a succcessful previous deck and how to adapt it for Bo1 or Bo3. Also, I would love Timeless content. But I get that Mythic WCs are a problem. Long time viewer, (since the old MTG days before LoR) who very rarely posts anything. Since LoR went the same route with monetization as basically every other CCG, I got back into Magic when I saw your Insidous Roots deck. I just love incidental value decks where everything clicks and synergizes. So, I would love Bo1 and Bo3 content, because both has its audience. If I want to watch/play the Mogwai experience but don't have much time, Bo1 is best. If I have the time and want to savor the experience, Bo3 is best. Maybe you can adapt a pet deck you love for both formats in a follow up video if possible. Slows down the pressure on you as creator and it's still fresh content I would love to watch. (Just so you won't burnout, would be sad to see it again...) Also... Timeless man... I am playing Titan Field and it's just fun. It's swingy, but also balanced, I think. But maybe that is due to my low rank. The only match-up I felt I couldn't win was a UW control with One Ring and PW value + board wipes and Mana Drain. (Mana Drain even gives you the Mana if the card becomes uncounterable. So busted, but I love it!)
Small misplay I think against the first opponent, in the second game. You played tinybones and declined the tinybones joins up proc, so you saved them a life. Not much of course, but something
02:50 Damn, literally I just burn out today, tired of MonoRed and Boros. Man, what a miserable experience. I would take this video as a wake-up call and start playing real MTG! You're the man.
What you said about BO1 is exactly true and it’s not that much fun for the same reasons you mentioned. Glad to see some BO3 content! Would love to see more of it.
I wonder if the visual bug is due to untapped gg , I had it too at some point, I should check it killing untapped does fix it next time I have it On other note, I was thinking of a discard based deck that used inti with raven man and hostile investigator to discard self as well so there will always be something that is discarded every turn for maximum value. I wonder if it's doable. Also any plans for a blumburrow spoiler stream ?? PS 30:40 I would have kept sheoldred in the back as you had perfect information, and they would full tap to play their buffs and they couldn't kill you on the spot, the audacity draw + their turn draw would have been 4 damage which means any legendary you played would have been enough to finish them off. One must not underestimate the power of pings and sheoldred 2 damage every turn, they can stack quickly (and the heal on your turn would put you out of bolt's range if they tried to bolt on upkeep before draw/triggers)
Mog, just saying but, it's ok to make some try hard series with the same deck, ok? Don't burn out yourself, we love all kinds of content that you make (for example, that video explaining how to navigate though MTGs menu was a life saver) ❤❤
I'm fine with bo1 and bo3, but what is even more important for YT channels these days is consistency. Create a weekly schedule and stick with it; something like: Monday: meta deck of the week, Tuesday&Thursday: Mogwai's hipster bo1 decks/matches, Tuesday&Friday: bo3 matches, Saturday: card showcase, Sunday: day off/preparing for next week. Obviously, you know yourself better than anyone, but you should take care of your mental health with frequent breaks so that you don't start going MIA for weeks like you did with LoR.
My 2 cents... BO3 is great, and whenever you showcase a BO3 deck, please show more matchups by having 2 uploads back to back (The same deck 2 days in a row) Unlike LoR, it is much more difficult for us to craft decks, so just watching you pilot a BO3 deck in different matchups is more valuable to at least players like me. Please don't feel pressured to churn out new decks every single day! Love the content~
You should consider putting UA-cam videos that are longer than an hour long with your gameplay. Include some ads and I bet you'll be making a nice chunk o change.

Bulk recording sounds like a excuse someone whoe doesn't shower would use to me 😂
Nice to finally see some BO3 games, your decks are more competitive than typical MTG UA-camrs, so they can shine the most in the BO3 environment.
BO1 or BO3?
"Both?" "Both." "Both!" "Both is good."
More Bo3, bruh! He needs more!!
Bro! I’ve been stalking your page for days waiting for the new daily Arena vid… you had me hooked! Come back!! Your content is the best! I love the passion, excitement, narration, personality, and of course the deck builds… I’ll be patiently waiting. Cheers my man and hope all is well!
I actually really enjoyed seeing how you adjust and come back on these Best of 3. Really nice change of pace.
Could you do a video reviewing exciting cards from the new set you find exciting when it reveals?
Really like the best of 3, because of the explanations of why cards are swapped in and out. It help when deck building against a specific archetype for me as a new player.
Awesome games, cool deck!
I love bo3, way more interesting to me than bo1, but I wish it was 3 bo3 games
Not sure why you question tiny bones joins up trigger. You should always trigger it. It’s a great card in legends decks.
You might mill a card they want in the yard or if you are unlucky mill a land and give them a sick top deck. Like he said sometimes is a felling or knowing the OP deck
@@breakingthewall2112 You're just as likely to mill a key card, preventing a sick top deck. Unless you're against a graveyard deck, or you know their top card is a brick for them, nearly always best to trigger tinybones joins up
@@catanman2 but sometimes you just got a feeling haha
Fiiinally some grixis!!
AND Bo3. It‘s great seeing you back in MTG, looking forward to this content 🫶🏻
I’m digging the best of 3s 👌🏾
I've missed the best of 3 please keep doing them much love!
Have yet to watch the video…just already stoked that he’s come up with a brew including marchesa
I still remember you signing up for a mtg tournament as the sole grixis deck, you definitely were the grixis dude and was one of the bigger mtg youtubers back then, glad to see you back

Grixis Mogwai is the best Mogwai

Both is best. I love bo3 very happy to see you returning
You nailed it completely man. Bo1 is so designed to make you have a 50 percent win rate, that I swear sometimes it purposely pairs you against the decks that your deck loses to typically.
Pro tip you can swear all you want after the 1st min or so of the video and UA-cam won’t mind. Just try to keep the first minute or two PG lol
Jagged is back! I wonder if the jagged butcher would enjoy the jagged barrens
I don't mind the occasional Bo3 deck videos
I prefer your best of 3, 1000%!!!!!!!
More iterations of cool/popular decks you posted earlier would be cool.
Mog, loving the content, do you think you could make a deck around RAKISH CREW??
Yesss bo3 is such a treat, idk if you read my last comment on another videoo but i absolutely loved your grixis bolas deck back then, it made me want to grind to mythic
I think more content creators should promote bo3 since that’s the better way to learn magic.
i just redownloaded the game after years... and it's rotation time again already goddangit. 😂
I would love to see somedl decks made for either bo3 or bo1 and you have a little side note to showcase how you could adapt the deck to be for the other format.
Honestly I'd watch an hour and a half of bo3 content everyday
I love to see my notification of Miguel's new video :D
bo3 or bo1, whatever youre feeling. Maybe in deck tech just illustrate how you would change deck if it was bo1 or bo3
hey.. i would rly love to see more bo3... tbh that is the real magic imho... sideboard guids are sooo nice in magic.. would love to see more of it..
yeah you have more matchups in bo1 but i realy love the deepdive in bo3 and you could if you want just do more videos with one deck in bo3 to show some more matchups
OR LONGER VIDEOS!!!!! ^^

I have been playing Bo1 matches entirely, but I would totally like to watch more Bo3 and even consider playing Bo3. I just need more wildcards lol.
TL,DR: Please both and an idea: A follow up video regarding a succcessful previous deck and how to adapt it for Bo1 or Bo3. Also, I would love Timeless content. But I get that Mythic WCs are a problem.

PS: About the content creation, even as a exclusive Bo1 player, I enjoy waaaay more Bo3 videos for sure.
Waiting for the Mabel deck Mogwai.
Hoping for the Mabel deck 😢.
Loved a bit of bo3, keep it up!
What you said about BO1 is exactly true and it’s not that much fun for the same reasons you mentioned. Glad to see some BO3 content! Would love to see more of it.
Hey Mogwai. Really love your MTG content! I would like to see some more BO3 in the Future :) peeez
You added removal to counter their creatures, but how do you counter removal?
more bo3 please! I would be into seeing 3 matches, so a longer video. bo3 is the real deal
Man I missed the bo3 in this channel
I like BO3 more, it's more tactical and interesting.
I wonder if the visual bug is due to untapped gg , I had it too at some point, I should check it killing untapped does fix it next time I have it
On other note, I was thinking of a discard based deck that used inti with raven man and hostile investigator to discard self as well so there will always be something that is discarded every turn for maximum value. I wonder if it's doable.

Do you know then Raven Man? He lives on Grixis lane.
Miss you already

Why did you stop uploading did something happen? 😢
yeah, hopefully nothing critical happened. fingers crossed
I like best of 3, but at least 3 best of 3 would be better (I know, they might be too long but thats just a preference)
I play only Bo3 and I want more of iy on the channel!
We need more black white controll
I mostly play BO1 but I'm willing to be convinced to try out BO3 !
It's just me that is ok with a one hour long vídeos if BO3?
I don't mind bo3. I like some variety.
Bo3 is as interesting as bo1 for me, thx for the grat decks
I'm into whatever you want my bro, i just want to see fun deck ideas
BO3 is real Magic, like you said.
where are youu? 😍
its also grixis that got you to quit MTG where you manascrewed at a tournament
More bo3 games would be nice yeah
Dont play MTG but I think I prefer Bo3 games as well. I think you should mix it up once in awhile Bo1 and Bo3
My 2 cents... BO3 is great, and whenever you showcase a BO3 deck, please show more matchups by having 2 uploads back to back (The same deck 2 days in a row)
Unlike LoR, it is much more difficult for us to craft decks, so just watching you pilot a BO3 deck in different matchups is more valuable to at least players like me.

Jeah, screw you guys! If you just sit in front of the computer you don't sweat and you don't need to shower... *kappa*
Wow this guy does not shower. He's wearing the same shirt as yesterday video
moar Bo3
Real magic? So brawl and draft isn't real?
Bo3 is good but tbh I’m a deck tech watcher these days
I do like the bo3 content it's like another game
I wouldn't mind hour long videos for bo3 btw
i have big perfomance problems in arena... its rather ``common´´ nowadays.... MTG PLS FIX !!!!
They? You mean he.
I more prefer bo1, but bo3 is also fine sometimes
Yeah, you said the f word a lot in the last intro, but Rupert deserved it.
I can't believe I'm watching someone that doesn't bathe or change clothes.
First!
Best of 3 is good for variety, heck, I wouldn't mind if it was majority best of 3
I prefer best of 3 because the matchups are less stale.
Bo3 >>> bo1
I really like Bo3 videos, you could make them, let's say, a 1 of every week o even a 2 of every week I think it would be just fine
I honestly prefer the bo3 content over bo1 for the exact reasons that u mentioned so keep em coming 🤙🫂
