Dear lord this deck is the definition of overwhelming. There's too many resources for mid-range and aggro decks to fight through. It's like facing against a final boss
Yeah I just now farmed Bo1, it's 70-80% aggro, mid is good as you mention, and after 7 straight Ws I finally lost to a grixis control deck. There's so much card draw too, it's beautiful to clown on the black discard deck
It's funny one of the domain deck's worst matchups is against the 36 wraths deck. Their removal is useless if you don't play permanents, they don't have enough threats to outlast 36 wraths, and they will eventually deck themselves by drawing too much off beanstalk and atraxa.
watching every copy of up the beanstalk draw 6 cards a game is just mindblowing, one of those two mana plays that requires an immediate answer or you just get absolutely drowned.
Up the Beanstalk is OP tho. It works on all card types (not only creature), also it counts only on the "printed" mana value, which can be abused by cards with alternative cost.
Up the Beanstalk is just a crazy card. If you untap with it, it isn’t hard for it to be 2mv draw 2, which is already above rate. And you often draw 5+ cards over the course of a game.
Yeah, the card is just poorly designed. It cycles upfront and all the rest is bonus; even if it were worded "whenever you spend five or more mana for casting a spell" it would still be broken. It shouldn't draw on entering.
To be honest, even when Atraxa rotates out, Domain will still exist in a different form: Bant Control with all the new overlords and Beanstalk synergy. Whether it will be meta is a different story.
Holy crap, I know we all know that 5 color decks always try to go over the top of whatever their opponents are doing, but DAMN tbis deck doesn't even have to try. It just does! Really powerful stuff here Luca, i appreciate you making this deck for us, but I sure hope I don't have to play against this xD
You either put enough greed in the deck to beat domain/reanimator or you add enough cheap conditional removal to beat mono red. There really isn't much room in between. Also there is absolutely nothing preventing this deck from cutting back slightly on the removal and adding a full playset of either the white or black overlords. Good luck dealing with thier value train then.
I wouldn't really bother with the Black overlord, remember that he only gets "Non-Avatar" creatures out of the graveyard. So if your deck is loaded with Overlords he's going to miss a lot of the time. Plus the Domain deck in its default configuration is mostly white/green, there isn't a ton of black sources to pay for the BB cost.
@@jasonslade6259 Green overlord near automatically fixes those mana issues on it's own. Also they were more pulling enchantment removal out while adding more targets to rite of the moth and/or smugglers surprise. It was far more abzan in mana pie and removal suite apposed the naya displayed here and I suspect the the black overlord was slotted over a few of the beanstalks. Edit: Granted this could have been a localized phase of the ladder as I have also people running atraxa and ghalta in straight orzov reanimator..
@@ericwolf9664 I agree, you can bypass the mana issues by switching to a more black-heavy version of the deck but I've played a creature heavy Golgari deck with 8 overlords in it and the number of times that I cast Balemurk on turn 2 and got no hits was unacceptable. If you go up to 12 overlords its going to be even worse. I just don't think he belongs in that kind of deck.
I play Temur and my favorite win in this meta was continuously bouncing atraxa to the reanimator player's hand and watching them mill themselves out into a loss
35:16 could you have still used the not on my watch after the 3 damage resolves/they choose to sack scamps, in full control? Would make any pump spells they have redundant.
I got downvoted for saying we should wait until after rotation to have yearly bans and use domain as an example of a deck that may still be to strong even after rotation. I got attacked and downvoted into oblivion "because rotation kills the deck"

I was hoping this deck would lose some traction after rotation but it feels better now than ever.

Biggest problem with this deck is it's just tedious to play against, and the mirror is even worse.
I hate when the 4th leyline binding / sunfall dropped

I truly don't even know who to root for between Mono R and Domain Atraxa
"Let them fight"
Seriously. Both are cancers to the format, more or less
Monored at least doesn’t waste your time like the domain deck does.
@@Muertoloco13 Cue the monoR player expending 30s deciding which mountain to play.
Me: "I never thought I'd fight Monored besides such a disgusting deck."
Domain: "And besides a friend?"
Me: "I could do that."

Another video seeing Mono Red getting slapped around is always joyful to watch.
In most circumstances, I would call this petty.
Specifically the Leyline deck, though, I do not mind being petty at at all.
Red player flooded hard. Domain actually has bad matchup against red.
LVD is the master of his Domain

DOMAIN EXPANSION: DUSKMOURN OVERLORD
Sunfall is such a broken card. I can't wait for it to rotate out.
We all thought the moment New Coppena left. The deck would die. We’re in Duskmourn. This deck is still alive. Retvrn to two years WOTC.
thank god

I don't know a single person who likes the extended rotation.....yet wotc seems to not listen
@@bobboberson6664 it’s a temporary solution to get rid of the overstock.
I love this deck
I never saw a domain deck so clean. Good deck as always, I will try to adapt to BO3
this is the reason i only play brawls and sealed, this is not fun to play against anymore 😢

Wonder if 3x Atraxa are too many? Plenty of beef to win or stall the game until you find (say) 1 of 2.
Have a nice day

I have good success with azorius control against both types of decks honestly.

Cool, LVD standard video. I wonder what new brew he cooked up.. oh
Overlords go up the beanstalk lol
No wildcards to build it 💔
“I think it was called…. The deck that just won’t die…”
What do you think about Archangel vs White overlord?
Both are decent, Archangel provides a more unique effect even if it doesn’t trigger Beanstalk.
Mono Red, Atraxa Domain, BG midrange. No matter who wins, we've all lost.
Domain is Everywhere (and vice versa)
This deck is frustrating to face, but *very* satisfying to defeat. Oh, to kill a Domain player's Atraxa, and to reanimate it the next turn ❤

I love how this deck has stuck around even after losing the triomes
Can you do a leyline of transformation deck?
24:00 i dont get why you didnt get lost the scamp....
No white mana.
@@LegenVD ah my bad, you are right! did not notice at first.
Good lord, this deck is annoying to play against!
this deck have too much value

3rd
Second
This is what this game has become. Playing Op decks like this one or mono red. Literally no one plays bunnies/humans/dolls. No one has guts
Playing those in Best of 1 is asking to lose. Play best of 3 the variety there is much higher.
