"We have Dovin's Veto for any shenanigans... That's a shenanigan." Ah man, while I appreciate the vibrant personalities of other MTG UA-camrs your deadpan deliveries never fail to have me dying. Never change LVD.
There's something about Arcades that makes him a wonderful beginner friendly commander. Usually helping with making the overall price of the deck cheaper thanks to his defender archetype. But you gotta love how his archetype is backed up by the lore behind him. An elder dragon who founded a sprawling city which acted as a bastion to academic study and protects whom ever seeking such a life out.
Omg, thank you so much for following my suggestion! I am so happy that i told everyone about you! I just loved the final list and the gameplay was incredibly competitive and fun at the same time! Like I said, you just made my year! 😊 🎉
Thank you for doing this. My very first commander deck I ever built and I refuse to take it apart. Now that there's more support from DMU I can't wait to make my own list!
>13:43 “I guess we somehow drew all three Plains, that’s unfortunate… okay, um… that’s fine.” Everything was not fine. I feel like I’ve never heard LVD sound so lost before 😂
Luca, you're such a good sport by waiting until your opponents find the lethal lines. Even when you know you're beat, you stay in the game which is really nice of you! 😄
The thing with Arcades decks on MTGA is that when you go to combat phase, all your walls have power equal to their toughness, which is quite misleading since Arcades says they assign combat damage equal to their toughness. So in some circumstances, you or your opponent could make some silly moves because of that.
Hi Legend, I'm thinking of building some paper commander decks using proxies for some of my family who are completely new to magic. Do you have any suggestions for 2 mana commanders that have clear beginner-friendly themes I can build some decks around? Since I'll use proxies, the cards don't have to be limited to the cardpool on Arena. Thanks for the great content over the years!
To teach new players I would probably seek out some of those old sample decks they used to give out for free. Commander rules would probably add an extra layer of complexity that you don't need to start with. Once they get the hang of basic rules they might already have a color preference that you can use to pick a commander.
Really insane that you got that win against Feather, considering the enemy came out of the gate with the wall hate card. Goes to show how busted walls are, if not even the anti-wall cards stand a chance. (46:51)
Nice deck! Att 11:00, you could have activated Guardian Idol just to buff the Towering Titan for 2 more - though this would have meant not having mana to tap a creature with Drawbridge.
My modern and comander versions of the deck go hard with jeskai barricade a 0/3 defender with flicker for 1 colorless 1w though my decks lean more aggro and more toughness with ok etbs (wall of runes comes to mind/wall of blossoms)
In hindsight I think you maybe shouldve played gleaming barrier instead of wall of blossoms match 4 as its would've helped your mana and you wouldnt have had to discard. But thats really just retrospective backseat gaming, especially since you did not know rebuke was the next card.
@@myojinofnightsreach346 yes actually it shows me newest first and top comment. So idk what you’re seeing but yes. I win again. Lmao stay mad spam account. 😘
@@myojinofnightsreach346 🤣 I love that your trying to defend a spam account that couldn’t beat me when they have a computer program set up to try. 🤣 🤣 🤣
Hey, LVD! The post-production de-essing you do in your more recent videos is a little much imo. It makes your voice sound a little unnatural at times. I get why you do it, some of your 'S' sounds are a little sharp at times, but I think this is a little much. Although maybe I'm hyper-aware because a) I've watched a lot of your content over the years, so I'm just used to the natural, unedited sound of your speaking voice, b) I know what de-essing is and I recognize its usage in your videos, and c) I'm a sucker for languages and am very perceptive about those kind of things. Anyhow, keep up the great work please! Love your channel
"We have Dovin's Veto for any shenanigans... That's a shenanigan."
Ah man, while I appreciate the vibrant personalities of other MTG UA-camrs your deadpan deliveries never fail to have me dying. Never change LVD.
My favourite for that reason, the deadpan dry whit makes MTG infinitely more enjoyable for me than someone yelling every 2 seconds
came straight down to find that one comment, wasnt dissapointed
"It's only fair."
Best line: "That's a shenanigan."
Came to the comments to find this exact line
I love the word shenanigans! It's so different from Italian words, has no easy translation, and sounds so cool!
Happy to open the comments and see i wasn't the only one
50 minute LVD video! Hallelujah!
I say “shenanigans” so often my friends make fun of me.
"That's a shenanigan" got a literal lol out of me. Thanks for all the amazing content.
Glad you enjoy it!

The lore and flavor (con)text was literally what brought me to MTG and is still what makes me enjoy it a lot to this day
I agree the flavor text and backstory are some of the reasons I still play!
never heard the lore about Arcades. Nice
Omg, thank you so much for following my suggestion! I am so happy that i told everyone about you! I just loved the final list and the gameplay was incredibly competitive and fun at the same time! Like I said, you just made my year! 😊 🎉
Thanks for the idea!

Defender decks have always felt cool to me!
>13:43 “I guess we somehow drew all three Plains, that’s unfortunate… okay, um… that’s fine.”
Everything was not fine. I feel like I’ve never heard LVD sound so lost before 😂
Having a dovin's veto for shenanigans provides a lot of value.
At last, a deck with Flumph!
Thank you very much fir your time and marvelous gameplay, master LegenVD.
We have the technology xD
Lol love the reference Luca!
"We have Dovin's Veto for any shenanigans"... immediately following..."That's a shenanigan." Gave me a jolly lol
Love the thumbnail!!!
I hadn't updated my list since Innistrad. Boy, are there a lot of new toys for this one in the last year
I appreciate your commitment to sticking with the stained glass lands.
Luca, you're such a good sport by waiting until your opponents find the lethal lines. Even when you know you're beat, you stay in the game which is really nice of you! 😄
Lots of neat new defenders for that deck, I like the bird generator. Wow, Arcades had a cool animation, what ever happened to those? Hahahaha
Love the brawl content, thanks for the consistent content!
Glad you enjoy it!
«not playing snow-covered basics just so I can play the Dominaria». best. reason. ever.
King Darien deck would be nice to see in the future. Keep up the awesome Work!!!
Like malarkey, shenanigans provide a lot of value.

So in some circumstances, you or your opponent could make some silly moves because of that.
True, though the alternative of them displaying as zero could also lead to some silly moves. :)
This is a deck I was looking for!
I love your content 😂 the matter of fact humor lands so hard.
I’d love to see defenders in Explorer, what can I say they’re a fun “tribe” 🤷🏻♂️
Love the mic quality
ight, never had I known I needed to make a defender deck named WALL -E
Yah rovers rebuke is cheating. I feel like I always know when my opponents about to play it too. I can feel it coming

There was an old set of 2 beginners decks i used for that. Angels vs Demons I believe.
Arknights ad popped up for me just when LVD won Game 1. "Tower Defense" you say? The algorithm scares me now.
Man, how many cards do you have legend?
Legend: yes.
we can rebuild him we have the technology
Thanks!
Thank you kindly!
Thanks for making great content! I always look forward to watching it as I walk home from work.

Thumbnail is your best
saw someone playing defenders in standard the other day
Amazing thumbnail
I was waiting for this one
is there a difference between Walls and defenders? Just saw the Text on kick in the door
WALL-E!!!! 🥰
Sorry for keeping asking. But i loved ur rakdos commander deck. Could you do one for Tiamat?
I'm a lazy goon sometimes I just watch the game play. My lady added tetsuko
do you think they should ban rivers in brawl
Bah weep granah weep nini bong.
Why doesn't Lavabrink Venturer's protection stop dusk to dawn from destroying it? Isn't Dusk even?
Protection prevents targeting and damage, but it doesn’t prevent non-targeted destroy/exile/bounce/tuck effects
I think it’s been a while since you’ve made a spirit theme deck - would there be enough material to make a spirits deck for this format?
Walls to the brawls
Nice deck!
Att 11:00, you could have activated Guardian Idol just to buff the Towering Titan for 2 more - though this would have meant not having mana to tap a creature with Drawbridge.
Tower Defense? More like Tower Tap Attack. Huehuehue
Castles. They deck is called Castles.
Arcades, Lord of Big Butts.
Did, did legend not immediately recognize a card in game 2 ?!?! Who is this and what have you done to legend!!!
Why not use somekind of "blink" to get multiple "etb's" feels like alot of the walls have good once or am I wrong?
Only a few draw cards, Chaplain would be the best one to blink but we're not guaranteed to find it every game.
My modern and comander versions of the deck go hard with jeskai barricade a 0/3 defender with flicker for 1 colorless 1w though my decks lean more aggro and more toughness with ok etbs (wall of runes comes to mind/wall of blossoms)
Wa..wa..waalleee
I believe Roger Waters and David Gilmour have a lot to say about this
Gilmour would probably be okay with this, and Waters would start some kind of pro-russia conspiracy bullshit.
Now that's a deck I've been wanting to craft for a long time! Thankfully LVD made a great video about it! Much thanks, Luca
What do you think of the recent urza planes walker?
Too much text, haven't read it yet.
@@LegenVD My exact reaction to The Questing Beast xD
why no wall of roots?
It's not on Arena sadly.
In hindsight I think you maybe shouldve played gleaming barrier instead of wall of blossoms match 4 as its would've helped your mana and you wouldnt have had to discard. But thats really just retrospective backseat gaming, especially since you did not know rebuke was the next card.
The deck is great, of course, but that thumbnail made me feel lol.
