It took me way longer that I'm willing to admit to realize that all intros are the same.
Yeah I was the same. It's rough out there brother.
They're all slightly different. 🎉
Wait, they're the same?
The editor is carrying CGB. If our guy is fine with the beginning and end being bad that is a choice you can make.
The intro is 2.5 minutes.... 10 decks would be 25 minutes.... I just don't get youtubers saying how hard being a UA-cam is when I just finished 4 days of 12 hours in a row.
It is nice to see you have an experience with Angels that pretty much matches my experience with Angels... Angels win once in a while, but they get clowned a lot. Also many opponents have the perfect curve on the play. It doesn't seem like they should have it as often as they have it, based on, you know, math... but they do.
negativity bias baby
This happens with all decks. Sometimes, I get 7 consecutive matches on the draw. I derank badly and get tilted.
That's not so much an issue with angels, it's an issue with how the arena algorithm/shuffler works. The fact that someone can play arena and experience the bullshit and defend those things or act like they don't exist is absolutely mind boggling to me
math in MTGA is a myth. I mean, who here can agree that against mono red, you tend to get either go second or get all your taplands in a nearly mathmatically impossible amount of times?
Irl tho, its very different
Pay money and win more. That's how it works, anyone who thinks otherwise is simply naive and clueless (hint - google patented algorithms for competitive online games, term: first E, then O, then M and another M (term probably gets auto-removed here, at least it used to be)
Ironic. CGB made an angel deck, yet he's in hell.
That sneaky Jodah deck was on one heck of a draw! Mono white with Cavern into 5C Humans with 4 kindred lands... It was like you were playing against two different decks!
the soul read on the Ertai as well... these were some crazy games!
43:20 - OHHH IT'S LIGHTNING HELIX!! OH MY GOD!!
😂😂😂, through the mind of so many of us!
at 29:30 i thought “if they have the case here we may see cgb break” and i certainly saw something break when the case dropped seconds later
43:14 OH MY GOD ITS LIGHTNING HELIX!
Alternate Video Title:
CGB Reviews Current MTG Standard Meta
Whenever I play a meme deck like this and try to play a 4 mana angel on curve while the opponent ramps out game ending 7-9 mana cards or just board wipes or combos off,
I'm always thinking:" Yeah, I could just be playing good cards, instead."
"I really hate Magic right now", yeah.....I feel that one. I decided I could work my way to mythic rank or I could enjoy playing MTG. The game is a lot more fun when the focus is on making a deck do its thing over making that link light go up.
maybe try something more casual for a change? I feel it needs a very good group you vibe with, though.
This is why I stopped playing standard altogether and just focus on 100 card Brawl. I don't have to care about rank and having more than 1 copy of a given card and my MTG experience is all the better for it lol.
Classic CGB “I scryed non-lands to the bottom how come I’m only drawing lands?”
I've lost all the way from Diamond 1 to the bottom of Diamond 4. It's a humbling experience. Then, I scrapped myself off the bottom and ran all the way to Mystic.
You could also say, a rigged experience many times
The deck is beautiful when it works. It's so rewarding if you can squeeze out a win, but very often you just can't get to that point. It's a nice deck if you plan to play it in Standard Play and feel the joy of some beautiful wins. But in my opinion it's just not for ranked
EDIT: I've been there crafting expensive Angels for Standard Ranked and I got grounded very soon every time
Amen. Watching this brought on too many flashbacks. I was really routing for him
Man I am so ready for rotation...
I'd like to see cards stay for 2 1/2 years in standard with 2 rotations per year
@@danielquigley2695 Honestly I really don't mind the change they made where cards stay in rotation for longer. For me at least it makes there be a bigger pool of cards to choose from thus making more creative decks. But what they should do is pick out the like top 5 most overused cards every year and ban them..Which would still force things to not get too stale but also keep a lot more options in cards. idk just an idea it probably would still make people angry lol
@@danielquigley2695 nah they just need to go back to the old standard and make a second bigger rotating format
Play this and get paired against either Control or - without your removal spells - hyper aggro.
Why? Why do I continue to watch the intro and the outtro every time? I know it's the same every time. But I still watch it.
You know, Mr. B, although you sometimes struggle with the losses when it looks as if the game is stacked against you, at least you show it to the world and not manipulate the content only to show the wins, like some other content creators. You and LegenvD are always true to this and I respect you dearly.
Just another obligatory Lightning Helix meme comment. You love to see it!
39:35 could have saved the face-down Vindicator by turning it face up once they'd paid the ward cost for the disguised version. The face-up Vindicator has its own ward cost, which must be paid separately - opp was tapped out at that point.
I feel like in almost every video there's at least two games where CGB goes against the slowest possible player with the best possible luck
Do you ever get that feeling that MtG Arena is fixing matches? Especially as of late I can't seem to be able to play 3 matches without either being or running into an opponent that has literally every card in their top 15 to win the match in 4 to 5 turns without encountering any resistance.
Just human nature to see the negative patterns I don’t think WOTC is fixing games. No one can ever explain WHY they would bother. It’s conspiracy theory nonsense.
Take the tin foil hat off, bad streaks happen.
If your winrate gets too high then the algorithm steps in
@@honestabe411 This is the most tinfoil conspiracy theory that I actually buy into. Somehow, things happen on arena that I haven't ever seen in over a decade of playing in paper. Maybe that's just the nature of higher sample size from being able to grind out game after game online but it just FEELS off sometimes. I have no real facts or data to back it up, though xD
And days like this are literally my usual. Welcome to the "other side of the Arena luck". I have only found a way out by changing decks, and that isn't full proof. See guys? Even CGB doesn't get all the good times.
11 in the top 20? Amateur numbers. 17 in top 20 was my worst, mulligan to 3 playables 3 lands in hand... never drew another playable.
Your rendition of "Bring me to life" against the opponent called WakeMeUp brought me to tears. Because of how bad it was at 2x.
General "wrong lightning helix card style" comment.
But I really like the boros Angels :)
I tried so hard to make an angel deck work. White black with lifegain and amalia with voice, other white black aggro, white black green, monowhite, white blue... And all failed. Too slow vs control, to expensive vs aggro... With the rotation getting even worst. To win you have to trust in bad draw for the opponent and that's just sad
love the way this deck plays, but as soon as I crafted it up, the deck composition of what I get paired against, completely changes, and now I mostly see these decks that are almost designed to beat this. Barely ever saw the kinds of decks I am seeing now. The match making is utter crap, and really makes me want to stop playing altogether. Even though you can still have good matches, you just know it's rigged, and it casts a pallor over the entire experience. It's pretty gross really.
Do you need the full 4 play with fires and helixes if your creatures are great against agro? Maybe. Couple Thalia could shore up the control/combo matchup while also being a decent body.
The Legendary human curve out game? Ohhh that was some MTG BS. Every bit of salt well deserved for that game
Arena is so broken, the last 27 games I have played I was 21 times on the draw. WTF and then 90% against aggro, the games I was on the play I was either mana screwed out of the hell or opponet had all cards they´ve needed to answer my threads. This matchmaking is the greatest shit on earth, when I play the same decks on paper this never happens in this dimension.
When you said a deck that had only played mono-white humans so far might have Ertai I thought you were insane. Then they actually had it wtf...
losers Q you have to close client and open it again
I wish we had access to replay while we were in the match so we could dial it back and look at their hand in the post game to see what the hell they were tanking about.
What's the best way to get Resplendent Angel? I feel like I see this card in every one of your angel decks but I just don't have the wildcards to craft it
I guess a better question is what is the best way to get mythic wildcards without straight up buying them
As long "Ladies and gentlemen get ready for combos, triggers, commanders...THIS IS HISTORIC BRAWL" and "Today we play best of one....THIS IS STANDARD" i have no problem with decks intro. 🎉
I can recommend splashing Errant and Giada... dont even need to change the mana basis.
One day you win win win next day lose lose lose. But have a good vacation!
Is it me or do the loses feel twice as bad as a win feel as nice?
34:15, I said the one piece is real at the same time and I bursted out laughing 🤣
i really do hate standard on arena anymore. Thanks for playing so i dont have to
36:52 the best part of the video.
Funny one haha
I dont generally believe in conspiracy theories, and usually tell myself I could have done something better in a match, but wow 😳.
The games in this video were something straight out of a horror story. Just pure magical christmas land for your opponents.
the only thign that gets on my ass more than monored is control decks ngl
CGB salt was strong in this one
Yup, this is exactly why I'm only playing Brawl till rotation.
Standard Brawl or Nadu Brawl? ☠️
@@TsujiCross my first ever MH3 draft on MTGA ended with an 0-2 opponent who had drafted TWO Nadu and an entire aura matters list. Completely stomped me to a quick 0-3... Needless to say, that card is rule 0'd out of every commander pod I play in for the rest of my life 😠
@@TsujiCross Haha Nadu, just auto scoop to that lol
Honestly lost caverns of ixalan was such a good set
Ahh so this is why I played against angels all day yesterday.
I made this deck, but I needed to make a few adjustments.
not many things in magic make me saltier than losing to a pile of junk that just happened to get a perfect draw into me. that game against UW artifacts is a perfect example.
WOW!!! Aren't you supposed to mulligan for the hand you want? eeesh...#1 where?
Have an awesome break CGB come back refreshed
Love angels! They can be SO POWERFUL when things line up well. Cool games.
I’ll be honest, normally I double tap though the intros or skip them entirely, but I’ve been watching the recent intros
I played it yesterday and I am 3-7 xD
nice deck. seems interesting. btw how was maggicon amsterdam and amsterdam itself?
Honestly with that game vs domain after watching you long enough now and seeing the land scryed to the bottom I fully expected it to be another land and that it would just devolve even further. Ya love to see it when the deck pulls through for ya!
9:07 Speak of the angel I guess
33:50 happened again
This video and these games are my life on Arena all too often. I feel you man.
This is a CGB snuff film. Lol
SURPRISE IT'S JOOOOODAAAAAAH
34:17 THE ONE PIECE IS REAL!
Well played, Sensei
Good deck bruh 😂
I'm sure the best angels deck is a UW control deck with a few angels in it
Conclusión: Ángeles = rouse roulette
30:50 woah boros is strong.
!
I used to have a Candy Cane deck that would absolutely thrash and slay in standard. But was the 90’s.
What's Candy Cane?
@@nicholasfarrell5981 What we used to call red/white before they came up with names like Boros, etc.
@@kylemcgowan1 oh, okay. I used to call it Fentesk, after the red-white house in the _Arena_ novel.
TRY ANGELS DECK WITH 3 SKREV 4 BAT 4 DURESS AND 2 SANCTUARY WARDEN ITS SO FUNNY THE CONTROL AND COMBO DECKS CRY. u dont need the tiches angel, only steel seraph resplendent giada archeangel and aurelia and 4 removal
Brawl is vastly superior to standard in nearly every way. Climbing ladder in standard is just a terrible experience
Angels are nice so it's nice to have an angels video. Thank you for coming to my Nice Comment TEDtalk.
CGB should listen to cupcakke while playing
Standard is a toxic cesspit atm, it's either dump your entire hand and have it turning sideways by turn 3 or control with 8 boardwipes in it.
BO3 helps
@@Brandnew33 ? No it doesnt. It's still either boros/rdw or U/W control 80% of the time.
@@txflood2519 sideboarding for tough matchups helps. The 1 red mana 1 damage to enemy creatures, graveyard removal, hand manipulation..
@@Brandnew33 youre missing the point. Everyone is playing the same 3 netdecks and you have to warp your build around it or get run over.
@@txflood2519 8 boardwipes are weaker when you sideboard counterspells or duresses. With aggro you can sideboard removal
The synthesizer deck has been dogwalking all of bo1
Nah, too slow against aggro and too dependent on drawing synthesizer.
I was wondering if there is any data to back up the claim that this is the best angels deck? Any comparison over a longer period of time to other angel combinations?
The inly winning angels deck must be the best
this is youtube.. every person uploading a video claims "this is the best" whenever they have created or copied something... just ignore these "flavor" claims..
🤓
Umm do you even know martial arts? Besides watching karate kid movies and old Chucky the Norris reruns till your head spun from endless spinning crescent kicks?
Come to Portugal CGB 😁
Standard sucks. Brawl saves Arena
Arena sucks. Brawl sucks. You can't play magic anymore. I haven't had fun playing this game in years. So many cards that should never have seen the light of day being printed. I used to love magic, now I can't seem to want to ever play it. Trash, trash, trash
@@Odgur_Englemakergit gud
@@Odgur_Englemakertake a break dude, you can play other games
@@Odgur_Englemaker Sounds like a you problem. 40 card formats and 100 card formats are the best way to play.
@@Odgur_Englemaker Why are you here? You clearly aren't happy with the game or the content... Did you just come here to complain to a bunch of MtG fans? Were you expecting people to back you up here?? lol just play something else if you really hate it so much and save your breath.
BOOM! First again!
I'm so fast
Thank you for your efforts editor!
