The fact that the fundamentals of card gaming are so ingrained in his thought process is a massive win to wherever he ends up. I know veteran MTG players who haven’t been able to understand why Hogaak is good and dude just nails it with the “oh, any card?!”

      Yugioh: imagine the only format people play is Legacy (but everything gets reprinted out the wazoo, so it's cheap to buy in), everyone is playing some flavor of Storm, and there's 5 different free versions of Force Of Will. The only major rule in Yugioh is the first turn player cannot conduct their battle phase (combat). It can get silly, but I love it!
      Oh yeah, it's also a game where a board full of walking 5/5 counterspells is fine, but a sorcery that simply says "Draw 2 cards" is the most broken shit ever :)

    Please put it to the test and show him Nadu - if he can guess it right, its even more of a miracle how it slipped through playtesting :D
    Also i like to add, I think it is easier to rate magic cards comapred to yugioh cards. Just the wall of text on yugioh cards that also happen to be very specific and relate to a lot of mechanics you cant understand if you dont know at least a bit of yugioh. The concept of a 8/8 that has alternate costs and trample over small creatures is easier than a card that chains with something, that can be special summoned but only if its in your discard pile and only once per turn and and and....I used to look into yugioh when it came out and this is like a whole different game today, i dont understand sh*t these days xD

    • @syrelian
      @syrelian 3 дні тому +1

      You're not at all wrong, but I think thats an important part of why he was so keen on evaluation, despite the perennial memes about nobody reading cards, playing YGO WELL requires an ability to parse what things Do despite the complexity, and why that is Good or Bad, and combined with a decent sense for TCGs in general and its not terribly difficult to sniff out easier examples like these ones
      I think its well shown in his reasonings as well

    • @Bongus_Bubogus

    • @CallMeAirChaps
      @CallMeAirChaps 5 днів тому +4

      Drawing cards is part of card advantage but yes, card advantage is powerful in pretty much any tcg. That's why one of the most broken Yugioh cards ever just says "draw 2 cards"
      That said, because of magic's mana system, the benefit has to be worth the cost. If you're only spending a little mana for something early that is constantly drawing you cards or creating tokens, that's strong. Paying 6 or 7 mana to draw some cards or make some tokens is pretty bad though, because there are cards for 6 or 7 mana that win you the game almost immediately

    I would have thought that Duskmantle Seer would have a place in topdeck manipulation decks.
    But I guess the problem is that you cannot play instances between the "every player reveal their top card" and "then put it into his or her hand" effects.
    If you could force players to show their top card first, then hit them with a deck shuffle instant effect before they draw, that would be useful.
    Or if you could turn the effect off and on as needed, combined with lantern of insight.

Would Toralf make the same decisions as the pro that won that game? Or maybe Jamin does something so differently from the pro on the other side that it throws off that potential outcome.

    @arandombard1197 2 дні тому

    I'll play along as a casual MtG watcher.
    1) Dragonmaster Outcast: So you have to wait until turn 6, play this card and it does nothing. Then your opponent has to be unable to kill a 1/1. THEN it summons a 5/5 on turn 7, but it doesn't have haste so you're still doing nothing. Finally on turn 8, you can attack with that 5/5. It's bad.
    2) Arcbound Ravager: So it's a creature that can just move its strength onto something else.On top of that, it's an activated ability and can sacrifice artifacts in response to them being destroyed and if it is destroyed itself, it can still move its counters onto something else. Feels really really annoying to play against. Busted.
    3) Hogak. 8/8 trample and it has two really separate mechanics to cheat it out. It feels like you could easily have this on board by turn 2 or 3. AND it can be played from the graveyard. Busted. I can imagine this just shitting on the meta.
    4) Duskmantle Seer. Feels like a tricky one. The effect is great but its effect is largely symetrical, unless the idea is to play this in a cheap rush deck that can easily utilize the extra cards better than your opponent and benefits more from the life loss, as the opponent has larger spells and is the one being rushed down so they need the life more than you do. But I also thought Blue Black was more control than it was aggro. The alternative is that some disgusting cards used this synergy to their advantage somehow. I'm going to guess busted. If there is a blue-black aggressive deck that plays cheap spells and tries to rush the opponent down, getting extra cards AND reducing your opponent's life total is perfect.
    5) Everybody plays Sol ring in every deck in commander so I assume it is busted.

    Man, Taylor did quite a bit better than Thoralf on the Yu-Gi-Oh channel. These weren't exactly the hardest cards to judge, apart from Hogaak, which surprised even seasoned magic player by how much more broken it was than first believed. Great job Taylor and have fun on the channel!
