I’ve always preferred playing control or midrange decks, so I don’t have much experience with aggro outside of limited. I absolutely adored this style of video, and hope you keep up the amazing work!
Same! I tried to play aggro after midrange and control and, well, I really sucked. 😅 I was just waaaay to hesitant and tried to play aggro the way I played midrange.
I'd say 14k is plenty for a channel that's barely 2 weeks old with 4 uploads. Especially since MTG is a bit niche with even the biggest channels barely cracking 100k. I expect this to catch up with the most established MTG channels soon.
Loving this, this is exactly what I’ve wanted for a while. An incredibly competent player teaching lessons through gameplay, rather than just playing games with us watching
This might be the best Magic video I've seen in a long time. I would watch you doing this kind of game dissection for hours. Even if I'll probably never reach that level of decision making, this opens my eyes to what to strive toward, and it's also entertaining and intellectually stimulating on its own. Thanks so much, I hope you do this regularly!
This is the kind of mtg content that youtube is lacking so severely, and this video alone is a huge breath of fresh air, please keep it coming and thank you so much for showcasing so many important lessons for free!
because most of them are really bad, let's hope this excellent video helps them...btw why label somebody as an "aggro player", seems very insulting if you think someone can pilot only one type of decks
@@sWrd_Master Amen. You can always tell the grizzled vets apart from the newly-armed newbies lol Especially when the latter don’t notice a particular creature has Reach etc. :P
Yes! This video don't use the "who's the beatdown" theory to justify a choice. It explains the choices among the variants of the game, showing that you don't have to "always beat when you're the beatdown". Amazing content.
WOW. This is some of the best mtg content ive seen on youtube. Could watch this kind of video for hours. Keep it up Vitor this channel is looking GREAT
Ugh, me too. I would have just traded with the spellbreaker and things would have gone downhill from there. This video is like a bucket of cold water to the face - I need to pay more attention to what I'm doing when I play aggro.
@@yoursweatersux To be fair, it’s MUCH harder to do all of these things on the ladder, where you’re not sure which cards the opponent is running Sure, PVDDR had to reveal his own cards to his tournament rivals here as well, but the tradeoff of knowing exactly which Instants to expect against Embercleave is sooo worth it IMO, especially during early, mana-intensive turns
I've never played mtg ,I'm actually a competitive Legends of Runeterra player and this content is awesome. I pause the video to read the cards (cause obviously i dont know) and then it makes sense. I would love to have more of this content, it's very helpful, even though i'm playing LoR in high level.
Awesome walk through! I would love to see more game play decisions like this. Textbook bluffing/analysis/punishment. Using your opponents' play decisions to inform your future plays. Seeing what you think in these situations is really cool! I'm excited to see more
This is great, thanks for the walkthrough PV! Please do more of this. The fact that it took 20 minutes to breakdown essentially what was a few key turns in the game shows how much depth and insight you offer. Great stuff!
I can not thank you enough for these types of videos! It is always nice to have the opportunity for a pro to tell us what was going on in their head and explain their plays. Much appreciated!
Man! If you could see the difference in my win percentage after this video. It's just unbeliveable. I'm sure you would be proud. That's some great job you are doing here! You are not just an incredible player but also a great teacher as well (and I'm a teacher myself, so that's a "professional" opinion). Thank you very much!
salve PV, jogo magic a 3 meses no arena, nos dois primeiros meses n conseguia sair do gold3, vc lançou o canal, assisti seu video de dicas e o video dos top decks, consegui chegar ao platina, e anda quero subir mais, obrigado pelas orientações, continue com elas!!! e quando der, fazer um video sobre a nova expansão, seria bem legal
As someone who just plays Magic casually this might be the best play strategy video I've ever seen. I'm 100% certain before now I'd have not had the discipline to not attack earlier and would never known there was a path to victory if I'd lost.
Oh my god. I usually try to read the types of blocks my oponents could do before chosing my attacks, but I usually don't play around what I think that THEY think that I have (usually I only play around what I think they have, with only one layer/steps). That was a really valuable lesson, thanks Paulo! About this kinda of video, yeah I would LOVE to have more of those! Anything that could help us understand your line of plays would be of so much value! As a fellow brazillian who was cheering for you on each of your games, I am really happy to see this channel and want it to grow so much!
Thanks for the very interesting and thorough analysis. At 8:53, when Ken Yukihiro plays Growth Spiral but doesn't activate Ooze, I think there may be a few more things we could consider: 1) You have no playable spells or abilities, so once you skip combat, your client auto-passes to end of turn. That should be a moderately strong indication to Ken that you have no instants and that he therefore shouldn't play around anything. Though maybe pros in important matches do regularly bluff by e.g. setting stops at their end-step but not in their second main phase, or soft-passing turn with Enter. 2) If Ken somehow *does* expect you to have Bonecrusher Giant, he could have eaten with his Ooze before casting Growth Spiral, and thereby threaten double-activating Ooze in response to Stomp. So why didn't he? He could've made a mistake (e.g. he only thought of Stomp after he'd already cast Growth Spiral), or he might have thought the play I'm suggesting was bad (why?), or maybe he hoped to find a blue land with Growth Spiral so he could cast one of his interactive spells or another Growth Spiral? In the latter case, he wouldn't have had open mana to play around Stomp, anyway. I have a weak impression that these considerations together don't entirely make sense unless he made a mistake.
The Arena stop makes sense, but it's hard to pay attention to this all the time. The reason he didn't activate Ooze first was that he had another Growth Spiral, so if he drew a blue source he could play it that same turn, yeah
In all my year watching Magic content, I don't think I've ever seen such an enlightening, useful , and thorough breakdown. By the far the best Magic video I've ever seen. Not only was it helpful, it increased my appreciation for the game and for the players. Really looking forward to more.
This video was awesome. When you read the oponents mind about what he thinks about your hand and you keep faking to insuflate his fear is really cool. To show your toghts in retrospect is a really cool conceptual of video.
Excellent video PVDDR! Playing an aggro deck but still showing patience at key moments in the game is definitely something most players including myself don't really think of. Please keep up the great work!!!
Fantastic! This video is exactly the kind of thing I need to get past my plateau. I'm lacking in the poker side of the game where you're using your opponent's hidden information. There's not much of this content on UA-cam and I'm very happy to be getting it from the best!
This kind of content is just pure gold. Learning so much from someone as good as you in so little time is unvaluable. Keep up the good work! I particularly enjoy a lot these kind of videos where you don't focus on decks/format but in strategy and play patterns. Great work, in all honesty.
This is one of the most insightful videos I've ever seen about decision-making in high level play. Truly, this is like getting a coaching lesson from the world's best! I absolutely love this style of video and hope you do more :).
That game 3 is such a masterclass, I was thinking about it since the weekend and now we have the commentary on your thought process. Thanks! Much love from Argentina!
This is why you're the champion. I would've definitely done the Mammoth + Beast attack. What an eye opener! I'm so happy to finally hear some advanced strategy for aggro decks! It's sorely lacking in YT land... EDIT: I won't even go into that Bonecrusher read - masterful.
It's great to have this kind of insight form the best player in the world. Your channel is awesome and you're doing a great job here, but this video is just on another level, these are the kind of contents normally locked behind a paywall and you're offering them to us just like that. Keep it up!
This was absolutely fantastic. I REALLY appreciate the in-depth breakdown on every little possibility/permutation. I like to think I'm a decent player (nowhere close to your level obviously), but I'll admit I would have made quiet a few different choices during this game which would have been incorrect. That little detail about the bone crusher giant assumption was nuts, I don't think I would have noticed that if I watched this game 100 times. Keep it up with the great videos.
Fazem 20 anos que jogo Magic e, apenas nesse vídeo, acho que aprendi mais do que em muitos anos jogando 🤣🤣 O mindset e a leitura de jogo do PV são sobrenaturais 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
This is why you are a world champion! I would definitely have attack in that second time you did not, and it would probably have lead me to a loss. Content like this is simply amazing, bring more of it!
Hi, PVVDR. Thank you for your content. That's gold. You're really thinking on another level and it shows in your writing and in these awesome videos. Please keep it up. As a F2P Arena player, I find that Mono-red tends to be the best bang-for-buck. Therefore I'd love to see more aggro content but I appreciate every bit of wisdom you decide to share. I love this and I love the Internet for making this happen. Have a good one!
Ótimo vídeo, PV. Muito bom ter acesso a um conteúdo assim. Principalmente pelo fato de ter legendas em ptbr também. Torcer para que muitos outros sejam feitos e quem sabe, com áudio em português.
It's been 3 years since I posted a comment on UA-cam, but this is such rare and amazing content that it's worth breaking the silence. Please keep doing these type of videos! Lately I play only Limited because I find Constructed a bit dull since it often reduces to netdecking and grinding the ladder if you can't put crazy amounts of time into testing and following the meta; but I really enjoy watching your matches and those of other pro players where you can see that a lot of analysis and counterplay is going on, and this video just takes that to a whole other level.
This is some of the best MTG UA-cam content I’ve ever seen. Thank you for that amazing walk through, more of these! High quality content of top tier play!
Brilliant content. There's a ton of gameplay content at all levels of competition but not much in depth gameplay coaching. The variety of topics you've done is great too, cheers!
As a Gruul player, this video was very insightful. Even though I could see a good amount of these plays, some lines I would have missed 100% and I could have definitely have lost that game if I wasn't playing as much attention as you did. I also agree that CoCo is superfluous in Gruul: I am playing a version with none and It is actually an improvement, because relying on my 4 mana play to get good enough bodies on the field is not as good as having reliable cards that I know how good they can be
Thanks a lot ! That kind of video where you take time to explain all the possible lines is really interesting and we don't see much of that type of content around.
Que vídeo incrível, Paulo. Parabéns! Uma verdadeira aula de Magic. Mostrando como é necessário sempre pensar além da sua próximo jogada e principalmente a tentar entender as decisões tomadas pelo oponente para poder prever o que ele fará no turno seguinte. Mais uma vez, obrigado pelos ensinamentos. Forte abraço!
Cara, excelente conteúdo, muito interessante a sua visão do que o oponente achava que você tinha, com certeza foi determinante para o jogo! Paciência é uma dádiva haha estou adorando o canal, esse vídeo em especial! Vaaaleu :)
Man, you did exactly what I commented in another video of yours. It's great to understand all the thinking that it goes on what seems to be simple play.
I played gruul aggro for my historic qualifications last week based on your mpl decklist. Turnout realizing its not a brainless deck. Watching this video really help me to understand a certain mistakes that i did during the qualifications. Thanks, i really loves all you content's champ!
As mathematician I can appreciates more an aggro deck than a control one, this because there's much more perfect information about plays at the start of the game: in game theory the "selten's horse" explain well this type of game, choosing the right path to optimize the chance of winning. Control decks are difficult too, but the randomness grows turn by turn not permitting you to predict the right moves.
PV thanks for share with us your perspective during a match and the analysis of each play! It's really useful and helpful. That kind of videos is necessary to learn how Magic needs to be played
Very helpful video! As someone who's trying to advance from a really good player to the best of the best it's sometimes hard to find Magic content pitched to the right skill level. I'd love to see more! Also, I would love to watch analyses of famous/iconic games from throughout Magic's history
Thank's for that very clear explainations. Sequencing plays with potentialities are a very good way to increase our decision making. I very appreciate this format.
Excelente vídeo cara, continue assim, acompanhando conteúdos como os seus eu tenho evoluído bastante, não existe nada de "Deck Tier 0" aqui, apenas estratégia e realidade, se é que me entende kkkk Parabéns, seu trampo é bom demais.
Super nice content! Please keep it up. 8:50, if Ken believes you have bonecrusher gaint, he should activate ooze first, not growth spiral (allows re-activate in response to bonecrusher gaint). Then he would have 1 more life and that can allow him to use gust at a better moment.
This kind of content is amazing. It's really a privilege to get to know what you are actually thinking behind your plays, and what a high end competitive match looks like. I'm sure now that by following your channel my last name will not be the only thing we have in common hahahah keep up the great work I'm loving it!
Amazing video, I especially liked the part where you pick up on why they didn't activate the Ooze and then try to represent the card they are already playing around! Sometimes the best approach is to win quickly, but sometimes patience pays off! Keep the vids coming 😊
Thank you! That was really helpful. I didn't know you could choose not to attack like that. I play mono red and always press all attack button and slam down embercleave on my anax to win :D
Fantástico! O jogo mental a partir do momento que ele não usou o ooze foi surreal! Parabéns pelo conteúdo e pela carreira! Se puderes postar mais vídeos com decisões de dentro do jogo, são meus preferidos! Abraço
Great video! This game was a good example of a game in which you did draw better than they did, but a little less precise play would have gave them lots of outs. Your play completely shut the door for them. Congratulations on the weekend results!
Not that I ever reached a professional level, but I've played all three archetypes over many years and aggro vs aggro is far and away the most complicated and involved matchup I came across. The sheer math and possible lines are staggering.
This video is extremely interesting and very well done. Love this content. Now just trying not to be discouraged by how much more info PV is able to process per turn that I can!
My man be playing 5d chess while so many of us are playing checkers
You guys have checkers?
This was a super awesome walk through. you brought up so many intresting desicions in spaces i wouldnt think about at all.
Thanks, glad you liked it!
I’ve always preferred playing control or midrange decks, so I don’t have much experience with aggro outside of limited. I absolutely adored this style of video, and hope you keep up the amazing work!
Thanks, I really appreciate it :)
Same! I tried to play aggro after midrange and control and, well, I really sucked. 😅

I’ve rarely see these kind of walk-throughs and analysis, but I think they’re super useful, it’s a similar sort of learning to chess.
Thanks, glad they are useful :)
Aggro players don’t get enough credit
They really don't!

Oh my god that use of the Bone Crusher read was such a huge level up. Using that read to create new lines of play was masterful.
:D

I would have lost that game.
Me too... Almost certainly

In the very beginning!

Keep it up. Its hard to find pro gameplay analysis and its something that we need more of.
I really like all of your videos.
Thanks!
I think this is your best video. Great to see the thought process behind each play in such a depth. Keep up with the good work.
Thanks :D

As mathematician I can appreciates more an aggro deck than a control one, this because there's much more perfect information about plays at the start of the game: in game theory the "selten's horse" explain well this type of game, choosing the right path to optimize the chance of winning. Control decks are difficult too, but the randomness grows turn by turn not permitting you to predict the right moves.
PV thanks for share with us your perspective during a match and the analysis of each play! It's really useful and helpful. That kind of videos is necessary to learn how Magic needs to be played
Thanks, glad you liked it!
Very helpful video! As someone who's trying to advance from a really good player to the best of the best it's sometimes hard to find Magic content pitched to the right skill level. I'd love to see more! Also, I would love to watch analyses of famous/iconic games from throughout Magic's history
Thank you! I will try to come up with some interesting games to analyze
I have heard this argument so many times I am glad that someone like him actually spells out how you should play regardless of the strategy.
I appreciate the insights here. This is exactly the kind of content I was hoping for you to produce. Thank you.
É por isso e com certeza várias outras razões que você é atualmente o melhor do mundo. Ótimo vídeo, conteúdo essencial, parabéns PV!
Obrigado!
As an aggro player who plays gruul in historic thanks for making this video. It is super helpful.
Glad it was useful!
Outstanding video. Magic needs a ton of content like this. Thanks a bunch for doing the work.
Thanks!
I really enjoyed all of your videos so gar, but this one was mindblowing. Thanks for doing these videos!
Thank's for that very clear explainations. Sequencing plays with potentialities are a very good way to increase our decision making. I very appreciate this format.
Thanks, I will try to do more
Excelente vídeo cara, continue assim, acompanhando conteúdos como os seus eu tenho evoluído bastante, não existe nada de "Deck Tier 0" aqui, apenas estratégia e realidade, se é que me entende kkkk
Parabéns, seu trampo é bom demais.
Muito obrigado, Paulo. Please keep uploading this great content. It provides a lot of value to all of us

Out. Standing. Love this approach to content! Thanks for all of your hard work 👍🏾
Thanks, glad you liked it :D
Liked all the videos so far but this is the best one in my opinion. Very practical and instructive to see in a real match.
Thanks, glad you liked it :)
Super nice content! Please keep it up.
8:50, if Ken believes you have bonecrusher gaint, he should activate ooze first, not growth spiral (allows re-activate in response to bonecrusher gaint). Then he would have 1 more life and that can allow him to use gust at a better moment.
This kind of content is amazing. It's really a privilege to get to know what you are actually thinking behind your plays, and what a high end competitive match looks like. I'm sure now that by following your channel my last name will not be the only thing we have in common hahahah keep up the great work I'm loving it!
Thanks!
Absolutely agree with you about Company in the Gruul shell. Nice video by THE pro player.
Just got back into Magic with the release of Kaldheim and this is my Historic deck for the time being. Great insight. Thanks for the great content!
Amazing video, I especially liked the part where you pick up on why they didn't activate the Ooze and then try to represent the card they are already playing around! Sometimes the best approach is to win quickly, but sometimes patience pays off! Keep the vids coming 😊
Thanks!
Thank you! That was really helpful. I didn't know you could choose not to attack like that. I play mono red and always press all attack button and slam down embercleave on my anax to win :D
hahahahahahahaha
Thank you, I'm glad it was helpful!
E esse é o motivo do PV ser campeão mundial e a gente um bando de 0-4.
Fantástico! O jogo mental a partir do momento que ele não usou o ooze foi surreal! Parabéns pelo conteúdo e pela carreira! Se puderes postar mais vídeos com decisões de dentro do jogo, são meus preferidos! Abraço
Wow! that was an amazing video! The walkthrough and awareness of the game is so cool to see. I would love to see more videos like this one.
Thanks, I will do more when I have more interesting games :)
I love this type of video - definitely would welcome more game analysis like this
Thank you, I will try to do more when I find interesting games
PVDDR, you are the best, always doing great stuff and playing amazing games. Im really proud you are Brazilian.

Great video! This game was a good example of a game in which you did draw better than they did, but a little less precise play would have gave them lots of outs. Your play completely shut the door for them. Congratulations on the weekend results!
Thank you :D
Yes Paulo. Give us more content like this. Amazing work.
Thanks for the content. Always looking to improve on my strategy!
:D
Not that I ever reached a professional level, but I've played all three archetypes over many years and aggro vs aggro is far and away the most complicated and involved matchup I came across. The sheer math and possible lines are staggering.
Então é isso que passa na cabeça de quem joga bem?
Baita vídeo, PV!
Excelente video PV. Definitivamente interessado em mais conteúdo analisando jogadas e explicando o pensamento por trás delas.
Mesmo não jogando Histórico e T2, os conteúdos tem sido ótimos, esse em particular foi demais! Gostei muito. Parabéns!
Obrigado, que bom que tem gostado :D
Because of this awesome walkthrough, I have subscribed. Thanks for the incredible content! Really insightful!
This video is extremely interesting and very well done. Love this content. Now just trying not to be discouraged by how much more info PV is able to process per turn that I can!
Really nice content ! So much details in this decisions! Que conteudo, pv! Bonito ver alguém fazendo algo em tão alto nível e comentando!
Obrigado :D
Fantastically insightful video, my favourite yet, thanks for making it and letting us into your incredible mind, keep up the great content! :D
