Decent all around deck. Lurrus I would say is an absolute must have card here (even just two of them) because not only does it round out your curve... But its ability acts as a safety net and means you can play your enchantments FAR more aggressively. You need that to keep up pressure against control decks or outpace something like mono-green. You can even play Kaya's to protect it (sadly this card is being cycled out). Also keep in mind that this, at its core, is an aggro deck. If you don't have lethal on turn 4/5 your chances of winning plummet because you're in board removal territory, just like mono-red aggro decks, but without the 12-16 rare wildcards and 4 mythic wildcards minimum (Embercleave) entry cost. Once you have some Lurrus' you can upgrade this deck slightly too with cards like Stonecoil Serpent (also not being rotated because Eldraine). Since in the mid-late game your only reliable means of closing out is going to be Gingerbrute (because it can't be blocked save by creatures with haste or protector), some mid-range sticky cards can help buy you more draws for a directly out of hand lethal.
This is such an amazing deck!! For those who needs more info on how to replace card for the upgraded deck, this is my version, have had great success so far and a total of 20 lands haven't got me into any trouble after 30 plays, there's more than 70% of chance to get a third land on turn 3 for Lurrus and demonic embrace, the scry land helps a lot too. I didn't include castle locthwain yet because I'm not sure if it's going to drag the tempo down too much, so I chose the scry land instead for more draw consistency Deck 8 Swamp (M21) 268 4 Hateful Eidolon (THB) 101 4 Mire's Grasp (THB) 106 4 Dead Weight (IKO) 83 4 All That Glitters (ELD) 2 4 Selfless Savior (M21) 36 4 Alseid of Life's Bounty (THB) 1 4 Gingerbrute (ELD) 219 4 Karametra's Blessing (THB) 26 4 Demonic Embrace (M21) 95 4 Lurrus of the Dream-Den (IKO) 226 8 Plains (M21) 262 4 Temple of Silence (M21) 255
I have two questions; 1) Are you going to do a specific upgrade guide video for this deeck? 2) About the upgrades you talked about at the end of the video, what are the cards to be replaced by the upgraded ones?
Hey man I really like this deck it's epic and appreciate your efforts with these decks! Could I maybe just ask that when you make these decks that in the end you also say what you'd remove to add the rares/mythics you recommend adding in, because I regularly find myself unsure what to take out for space to add in better cards and then just stick to the base deck knowing things can be better but me as not the best deck builder doesn't really know what can be removed and end up being afraid to change it, because I might screw up the deck🙈 Once again thanks for this one man it's an epic deck! Edit: I know what to do with lands, I mean that generally I don't know what non-lands to switch in and out
Just to let everyone know that Kaya's Ghostform is rotating out of standard since its in war of the spark which is one of the sets thats rotating out of standard in the upcoming fall. Btw hello GG love the budget deck!!
Gingerbrute is so underrated man, love that card for my budget Aggro builds! Definitely gonna mess around with it for Mardu Mutate when rotation happens
After your video I put together this list . And I got to 7 wins 3 times in the best of 1 Standard event X 4 Hateful eidolon X 4 selfless savior X 4 alseid of lifes bounty × 4 sentinels eye X 4 dead weight X 4 all that glitters X 2 demonic embrace X 4 lurrrus of the dream den X 2 mogis favor (surprisingly versatile) X 4 karamentras blessing X 1 castle locthwain X 6 swamp × 3 godless shrine X 2 temple of silence × 1 fabled passage Anyone have a solid sideboard ideas for this list ? Lmk plz
Awesome deck as usual but I have a question at 20:10. Is it possible to use blessing on the hateful and then give it protection from white using alseid so it becomes unblockable. Therefore it's lethal that turn with 8+3 damage?
@@HelloGoodGame Correct, however blessing is just an instant not an aura, therefore using the blessing and AFTER giving protection from white would give lethal.
Would you play Lurrus as a creature in the deck or as a companion? For me (sadly), companion is dead. But Lurrus is sometimes a bad draw when you draw him turn 2 and you only have 1 or 2 lands... I don‘t know. When your Companion-Lurrus dies to removal it never comes back...
Hi Hello Good Game I hope you get this message just to let you know is amazing your work for people like me(total noob)but I think can be better if you link the deck or your decklist because Im from Spain and is easier to copy and watch it than start looking one by one!!!Appreciate your work and passion man! Thanks!!! :)
I think that all of the multicolored decks you get as a beginner have 1 shockland in it, so you could include 1 in your f2p decks. Great video tho, cool deck.
@@HelloGoodGame I'll probably have to spend some cash, buying boosters for gems sucks, but the bundles and the mastery pass have at least somewhat decent value. Wizards is really not generous, maybe with Zendikar they'll put out some stuff.
Since it has so much lifegain, what about Light of Promise which scales with life gain? Also, what cards to replace if I want to play demonic embrace or lurrus?
seems cool but it struggles a lot vs control. i just concede automatically vs control so i can keep playing ! its weird that you can play this in mythic, im 1 win 8 loses in bronze lol
TBH this deck loses to about everything that can clean the 2 3 creatures you get to buff a bit, yes sure protect them revive them bla bla, in practicity it dosnt work. Maybe in diamon and mythic people have different decks and it works there, but any below this was a waste of what it costs PS you lose against control because the deck does terrible against control, if they even get to drop Ugin you can just concede and make you life less miserable
@@emmanuelfs1984 so maybe let's say you loose with this deck to everything not blame the deck. Many are haveming success.... i reccomend you rewatch or practice more!
@@HelloGoodGame Or maybe you can showcase what do you do against the next casses: * A lot of early removal * Control decks where you dont curve fantastically well and kill them before they actually get to play control * Not awesome luck drawing removal after removal Im not saying it just plain dosnt work, im saying it really struggles against a lot of decks you are gonna find in lower ranks. Sure maybe at your rank, decks are not on the same standard etc, and it fares better. I been playing it since yesterday non stop, and while I had games like the ones you showcased, I also had a lot of games where the draw would just not help and everything starts falling apart really quickly. I dont really think its a "git gud" problem, and rather than answering a "practice more", maybe address the problems I said, so I would know how to respond?
First off, you can't win every match. This is why we have multiple archetypes. Secondly Control decks can easily beat any deck with the correct curve and draw, much like ourselves. This is a game of percentages! We have answers to all forms of early removal with lifes bounty the dog that sacs as well, not to mention blessing or kaya/ minion... their are SO many answers for early game removal imo. You should also keep in mind it takes me hours and sometimes days to make and learn these decks within the meta, its not enough to know your own deck, you need to map out the meta as well so to better interact with it! Anywhoo, I still believe it just comes down to practicing more and eventually getting gud as you say :) Adjust the deck for your personal meta if we have different environments. I stand by the fact im trash at this game so if i can do it and others cant we have underlying issues at hand. Thank you for your time and attention bro, I hope you have better luck soon!
Their might be a bigger issue at hand if you are 0-8 in gold rank. Im not the only one playing this deck in mythic either! Just keep at it and soon you get a hang of it! See other comments, some going 7-0 with it in higher ranks
Hey man I played this deck in silver and had literally almost 0 good matches with it. Im just losing to people with way better cards lol I think im just gonna drop like a hundred bucks like everyone else does and actually stand a chance. Thanks for the vid though.
Hey good video however you didn't really do an upgrade guide. You just said that those cards are great to add... But what are you removing for them and why.... Sorry but that wasn't an upgrade guide imo. You were just letting us know that there are better cards. It would be helpful in the future if you actually state what could be swapped out and why. Also doing it for this deck would be awesome since it's such a good deck. Thanks
alright bro, thanks for the feedback, i guess just seemed obvious to me, and in the end it is up to you and your own play style! I look to get you guys making your own decisions, im just here for inspiration :) But I can try push some ideas a little more :) Thanks for feedback! :)
@@HelloGoodGame it's not an upgrade guide. Because he didn't state what can be upgraded for what. It's just an honourable mention in my opinion as to what are better cards.
Extinction Even owns the daylights out of this deck. Had my very own version for the past 3 weeks has been doing very well. Then today, season resets and all the lamest decks are back. SMH
Hello! I just started playing a month-ish ago, myself. Complete the first 4 or 5 days of quests, and you'll get like 10 decks and a few packs/gold coin. Redeem all the current codes, will give you about 20 more booster packs, for free. You can google MTGA redeem codes, to get them. Will get 3 or more packs from each set, plus free xp (which gives you more Core 21 packs). By the time you redeem all the codes, you should be able to make half a dozen rares, several mythics, a dozen or more uncommon and commons, if want. It's not very intuitive how to make a card you own zero of... you have to click the search advanced filters 'not collected' box, to see cards you don't have in collection, to claim wildcards for a copy you don't already own. In reality, you should be able to create even the upgraded version, or close to it, as free to play, just starting out, in just 4 or 5 days, after redeeming all your packs/spending gold to buy new packs.

This channel is actually quite outstanding. The in depth explanation is bar none for any Arena channel. thank you and Subscribed.
Much appreciated! :)

Oh and awesome video as always, keep it up!
Its dealers choice, scarring inferno for embrace and then a few lurrus while trimming from all maybe 1 of each maybe, dealers choice really!
thanks
Its really up to you :) no upgrade video planned yet
@Jonathan Gaither Ghostform isn't rotation proof tho
Awesome! Loved the list and the gameplay keep up the great work.
Thank you kind sir, just wish i didn't spend an hour filming with kaya hahaha
The budget brews you make are fire man. Keep it up!
Glad you like them!
im new to MTG in general been watching your videos, just wanted to say thank you for making it easier to start learning.
Most welcome Richard, I appreciate yoy watching my content!
Hey man I really like this deck it's epic and appreciate your efforts with these decks!
Could I maybe just ask that when you make these decks that in the end you also say what you'd remove to add the rares/mythics you recommend adding in, because I regularly find myself unsure what to take out for space to add in better cards and then just stick to the base deck knowing things can be better but me as not the best deck builder doesn't really know what can be removed and end up being afraid to change it, because I might screw up the deck🙈
Once again thanks for this one man it's an epic deck!
Edit: I know what to do with lands, I mean that generally I don't know what non-lands to switch in and out
Since this deck is 100% 2 cmc cards, no harm in adding 1 Lurrus of the Dream-Den. That's about it.
Ehh, its dealers choice really, dont be scared of breaking the deck just test and do what feels good for you!
Dealers choice, Scarring for embrace imo is easy
Powerful deck. However, I believe that Kaya's Ghostform will be rotating out.
Edit: Error mentioned at 12:08. Thanks HGG!
Yep, I talked about this in the video haha
Just to let everyone know that Kaya's Ghostform is rotating out of standard since its in war of the spark which is one of the sets thats rotating out of standard in the upcoming fall.
Btw hello GG love the budget deck!!
oops my bad I didn't know u said that Kayas Ghostform was rotating out of standard.
haha yea was my bad, twitch stream set me straight!
Gingerbrute is so underrated man, love that card for my budget Aggro builds!
Definitely gonna mess around with it for Mardu Mutate when rotation happens
Hope you enjoy it!
After your video I put together this list . And I got to 7 wins 3 times in the best of 1 Standard event
X 4 Hateful eidolon
X 4 selfless savior
X 4 alseid of lifes bounty
× 4 sentinels eye
X 4 dead weight
X 4 all that glitters

X 2 mogis favor (surprisingly versatile)
X 4 karamentras blessing
X 1 castle locthwain
X 6 swamp
× 3 godless shrine
X 2 temple of silence
× 1 fabled passage
Anyone have a solid sideboard ideas for this list ? Lmk plz

No, since Blessing is also white and would be sent to the graveyard itself.
@@wuschuchopf I see, even if blessing is used first and then given protection afterwards?
@@VamsiY Ah, wait. It's an instant not an enchantment. You might be right I think!
it would sent any white auras like all that glitters to the grave if you choose white, same would go with black Auras if you chose black.
@@HelloGoodGame Correct, however blessing is just an instant not an aura, therefore using the blessing and AFTER giving protection from white would give lethal.
