    I LOVE that Crucible is back in the Power Mack cube. Yes, Walk-In Closet/Forgotten Cellar is sometimes a better Crucible, but there is also just so much power in being colorless. Yes, the best Strip Mine decks are green with Fastbond, but at their core, Strip+Crucible can just lock a game down, no matter what color you are.

    8:55 - Did Enlightened Tutor even get seen here?
    Trinket Mage might be a second copy of Key but Enlightened is a second copy of both. Makes getting the combo far more likely than Trinket does.

    What a disgustingly good deck.
    The thing that makes this deck so great is that it not only has combo and ways to find combo.
    It's got good early interaction aswell with Stp, Lose focus and Toxic Deluge.
    It even has card draw and card filtering with Dack, Malcom and Mystic Confluence.
    This deck is just super strong and i'd be shocked if it doesn't 3-0.

    When Mac cast that Upheaval, I bet Sam had the Force and let it resolve. Heads up play.

    • @discrep
      @discrep 3 дні тому +1

      I thought your comment was interesting so I went back and looked at it closer and I disagree based on the previous turns. It's true Mack floated 1 blue with Upheaval to represent Spell Pierce, but that would only work if Sam didn't have a blue card to pitch to the Force. With lethal on the board, I think Sam would've just hard cast Force, taking the chance that Mack didn't topdeck Pierce. Mack can only have Pierce from a topdeck, because he would've used it the previous turn to counter Sam's Miscalc otherwise.
      I think it's more likely Sam drew the Force post-Upheaval because it seems overly cautious to not Force the Upheaval with lethal on board that could only be punished by a topdecked Spell Pierce (if Mack even had it in his deck). It's not like Sam had better chances by letting the Upheaval resolve. He'd have to wait at least 3 turns to play his ESB and giving Mack 3 turns seems riskier than the small chance he topdecked Pierce. He floated his mana in response to Upheaval to make Mack go to combat and waste his own floating blue so he couldn't play a 2 drop that turn.

    • @Anusien
      @Anusien 3 дні тому

      @ it’s not just Spell Pierce. It’s any of the other stuff that could be in his hand. Considering the board state at that time, the most likely outcome is winning with Spellbinder four turns later. But if you force the Upheaval, there’s a chance that Mack’s next play is Lotus, Breach, Brainfreeze or something.

    • @discrep
      @discrep 2 дні тому

      @@Anusien He had 2 cards in hand, at least one of which is likely known to Sam due to the ESB. I think the Spiral was topdecked because I don't think Sam would've taken the Blightsteel over Spiral with ESB. What's Lotus going to do on that turn if Upheaval got countered? He'd have one card in hand and tapped out except for 1 blue floating and dead next turn to the Spellbinder. Also, from Sam's perspective, Lotus would be far more of a threat post-Upheaval, so even more reason to counter.

    @brianh5844 4 дні тому +1

    9:10 I know you don't normally like enlightened tutor, but surely having vault/key is its time to shine? I realize trinket mage gets key but it feels like having a card that gets either half for 1 mana is significantly stronger when that combo just wins the game.
    28:25 One thing to consider for imperial sealing for flash here is that you have strip mine and wasteland in your deck, and torsten finds it, *and* getting 7 1/1's means you get to take back the initiative and keep it. So it actually does quite a bit to stem the bleeding from Urza since you can take out academy and regain and keep the initiative. Flash torsten doesn't immediately win you the game, but that line has to be better than taking a random draw when you're that far behind because I do think it actually puts you at parity if not ahead. You also have crucible in hand so you probably also get to keep taking out their lands, which also helps stem the bleeding from urza.

      Seems ok on empty board. Downside is that it sets you down the value side of the initiative path, which doesn’t help you defend initiative at all. I think initiative is kind of bad in decks like this that can’t protect it or retake it easily, since it often just helps the opponent win.
