The demonic laughter after the blue white reanimator screwed up their ordering and lost is why crim is my favorite.

[@tdimensional6733]

12:45 feels a mighty fine example on the importance of routing

[@douglasarnett-arnold1516]

Ledgers resolving first was funny. They were doing too much. 13:05

[@CMClaudio1989]

They should have killed Shelly then revived their dude

[@johnwilliams2385]

I really like lily and March of wreched sorrow in discard decks just to have something to do with discard spells once opponent is empty handed.

[@dracosfire7247]

I think CGB discovered that recently too

[@locksmithvic3118]

That's a great idea!

[@Punkinonthefloor]

My favorite part is, at 21:51, if OP had just passed without attacking, Crim would have died to Phyrexian Arena

[@timothymimeslayer]

I saw that and was like, Crim would die with the Sheoldred trigger on the stack right?

[@IMawesome0001111]

No, because on upkeep the Virtue would trigger, stealing sheoldred again and then phyrexian would trigger to draw an extra card but sheoldred would stack on top of that gaining 2 life

[@benissezmoi6196]

No cuz the trigger makes you draw and lose 1 before sheoldred effect resolves so hé would die before the life gain

[@res.l.8782]

He would go to zero with gain 2 on the stack.

[@dougmcquiaidsgreatesthits8867]

Crim! Keep up the fantastic content, you're crushing it! Cannot wait to watch through this, loved your timeless content but I do love some phyrexian arena and Lilly content.

[@nZektor]

12:54 that laugh is so full of malice, that's why I always come back

[@kaszael]

I'm beginning to feel like a Bat God, Bat God.
All my creatures from the front to the back nod, back nod.

[@FlyingSpaceOstrich]

Crim’s maniacal laughter after the opponent drew themselves to death with ledger shredder made me so happy

[@colinbrown74]

21:40 Gigachad Aclazotz saving the day

[@joeofthefallen]

I've cut about half of each of my Cut Down and Go For The Throat in favor of Anoint with Affliction recently. Not being able to hit Schooner and only destroying Mosswood Dreadknight has been a real problem for me recently. And it feels like the meta has been shifting more towards a bit beefier creatures, I've been getting more games where Cut Down just rots in my hand. Too many either 3/3 threats or threats that quickly grow out of range, like Raffine or Adeline.

[@jamesrule1338]

Ok, dude killing himself trying to kill that thrice damned Sheoldred was funny, even though everyone involved in MTG R and D should be tarred and feathered for letting "Shelly" come into existence.

[@unsungjedi9545]

Chart O Course snuck into Lost Caverns with a sweet new merfolk art.

[@SirLanik]

Voldaren Thrillseeker with no red mana is a real bold choice

[@spoopyboi1882]

That last game is why you never scoop

[@anthonyb.7340]

Would like you to include losses to see weaknesses of the deck

[@tanegram]

OMG that esper reanimator deck is so cool but Shelly is just better

[@user-wj9su1tu6k]

I just got an idea for a jeskai djinn fling deck .... scrap the mentors for callous sell sword and thrillseeker and cauldron

[@jeanpablo1031]

Why do you have blue mana? Also is 61 cards intentional?

[@alaraplatt8104]

i thought every crim deck had 61

[@tiger-stripedmagician2430]

one question why do you have a blue black mana base in mono black? is it really worth having that mana blue sources for just the man land?

[@daviddent5662]

Me: **Watching Crim saved by Aclazotz** "Nuhnynua bat god!" **Humming along**
Crim: **Starts humming this a second after me**
Me: O_O "WITCRAFT!!....But also cool."

[@eatachodeutube]

12:41 An Esper player being so arrogant that it costs them the game, the least shocking thing in the world

[@MasterCrvo]

Your decks are cool, and I like your videos. I wish Sheoldred didn't solo every game she lands.

[@suNn.K.O]

I love Bat Gods.

[@thygrrr]

I like big BATS and I cannot lie...

[@l4unchp4dgaming38]

I was told Discard Tribal isn't control. *laughs in mono black*

[@kigayah3979]

What a music?

[@MistaZiggy]

Wait why in a mono black deck is he playing a UB mana base.

[@erisdiscordia5429]

4 for a 4/5 with upside and upside. Yeah, Sheoldred is alright.

[@LordZurkov]

3 upsides. The deathtouch doesn't win games by itself like the other two clauses do, but it is a very real upside.

[@erisdiscordia5429]

@@LordZurkov Fair enough, upside, upside, and upside.

[@michaelmanos2296]

But why no tithing blade q.q

[@ZeroIsEven]

Bat god

[@vhungria6614]

Crim, why do you have dimir tap lands in a mono black deck?

[@yavivanov6650]

For the SHARK

[@vhungria6614]

@@yavivanov6650 oh, I see, thanks

[@SoftyMage]

Bat God!!!!

[@theblakwarior]

Oh, I hate this deck!
Good video.

[@sleazeberg]

Probably unpopular comment but the reason I hate discard/counter decks is because it feels like your opponent isnt interested in actually playing a game of magic against an opponent but instead their goal is to make the opponent miserable instead of actually battling out on the board.

[@michaelmanos2296]

Nothing wrong with domineering in magic especially if your looking for 50-70% win rate ranked removal is key
