    Im really liking this new format in the last two videos. I prefer seeing loses and shitty games, as thats the normal Magic experience. I would only like a little more info on how good you think the deck is, like you did in yesterdays video, when you said it was shit. I dont have many wildcards and while i want to have fun, i also dont want to craft a dub.
    Thanks for the great content!

    I was someone basically running midrange but not full creature azorius soldiers because that is what my free packs basically supported since there isn't a disenchant/breakdown system in this game like most DCCGs have. Those x3 - 4 requisition raids always seem to do work vs strats like this and it'll be interesting to see how it holds up post rotation.

  • @canis39
    @canis39 6 місяців тому +1

    I just played against Abzan Control and I initially assumed they just copied your deck, but they did make a change -- they added two Outrageous Robbery. And it worked to perfection against my slow Arcane Bombardment deck.

  • @jamiecarroll7381
    @jamiecarroll7381 6 місяців тому +4

    With so many spot removal, that many sweepers look like a complete overkill and are very little use against control decks. A simple field of ruin can shut you down completely. Would definitely swap out a couple sweeper for some basic discard spells. Then you wouldn’t have so many dead cards in certain matchups

    • @yomommashaus
      @yomommashaus 5 місяців тому +1

      or you know, swap some removal cards for "wincons" - I know control players think a wincon is forcing the opp to quit from shear boredom, but you can actually put wincons in your control deck! shocking

      @voin3186 5 місяців тому

      Yeah there will always be people who are bad at magic, and need to look up the top decks, in order to be able to act competitive in magic. The sad part is when they take that mentality to unranked looking for an easy W. It's not paper magic, our group can't kick those people out and say we want to play not the top 2 decks. So be better at magic, play a deck where you don't just win turn 3 with your opponent playing 1 or two spells, based on cards you had to look up, not your own plan. But hey if you are playing only to read winner on the screen, and that gets you through life, then I guess magic is for everyone. I want to see your unique ideas played against my unique ideas.
      There Mr.CGB I gave my salty outburst after losing to the same top 2 decks 5 games in a row in unranked.
