16:40 Make a decent deck and the game will let you win a couple of games just to let you think you got a great deck. After that the game pulls an Uno Reverse on you and you either get flooded with lands or you don’t draw lands.
@Andrej Z Go head and try it if you haven’t already. Game is free download. Every time I create a decent deck and play it seems to be the case. Gotta love the random card shuffler mechanic.
I completely see the same. It even works with adding cards to an existing deck, it will very often immediately be in your opening land. And then after 5-games you will draw shit, and the opponent will have growth spiral/uro/nissa/two ugins all in opening hand
You'd have to be deaf, blind and dumb to not understand that WotC has a mana algorithm and a match-up system that pits certain decks against other types of certain decks. We're not playing REAL MTG here, people.
CGB: *plays literally any deck* Also CGB: "Rakdos sacrifice is a terrible matchup for this deck. Priest destroys us." In sum: yes, Priest is absolutely absurd.
Try Dimir Flash with Disfigure and Heartless Act. It destroys Rakdos Sacrifice and Monored. Uro can be kind of dealt with with Ashioks Erasure. However, Nissa and Ugin destroy you.
Love how a creature deck managed to run through Mythic. Jealous. Need to build this. Well piloted. You clearly know so many archetypes and how to play them. Great content.
12:31 that’s me! Sorry for sucking the will to exist out of you 😛. Edit: I didn’t sac the butcher in response to the eagle because I needed creatures for the priest
Urik Mainstrum the cat oven deck is super popular in best of 1 and higher rank, like platinum and above. You will see it again and again very often. Arthur played it very well though
Urik Mainstrum dude, you didn’t even see mayhem devil! If you would have seen that, I think your head would explode because of my deck building prowess!!
Best mythic video yet. CGB having fun and taking it to Rakdos Sacrifice. Even though I'm pretty sure he had something to do with everyone playing playing Rakdos. Heck, it's my favorite deck to play.
I think it was lethal, depending on what they had in their hand. Bounce a Hawk, attack for 21, they can gain 1 from the hawk, and 1 from each of the sacs. Not enough.
in the mirror matchup, why did you always take extra damage from the skycat and then using the brazen brrower's bounce right after, isn't it instant speed?
Thanks CGB! What happened to the glass casket you had in a couple of games, it didn't work out? Also, though it may hurt your mana base a little, in another video (your dimir one?) you had a blast zone for dealing with oven, thoughts?
Cgb, How do you get those Rebecca Guay lands into your deck! its driving me mad that i cant "craft" them and there is no information on how to unlock them! Love that artist.
Hey guys I hate the cat oven sacrifice decks...and I tend to lose to them. My question is should I build 1 of these decks? Or is there a better more fun way to beat these decks?
Hey CGB! Love your content as always. Small thing: Can you work on getting the timestamps into your scroll bar? It’s really nice to know where to go in the video if I know I have limited time to watch. Thanks!
Man it is good to see UW Flyers put in work. It was my first deck I put together myself in arena when I first started Magic. Comment for the algorithm day 43
My own version of Azorious Flyers contain 2 Baneslayer Angels and 2 Warden of Evos Isle that syncs well with Watch of the Spheres for an awesome way to go wide and big!
I love it when you see the other player running a CGB build and say "oh.. I know that one." Even better when he plays a deck he played in a previous video
At this point I check the daily video and will consider switching cards in to fight whatever was shown. Slide a Kraul Harpooner into my Simic Ramp? Sure why not, it eats a Shock.
Really good deck!! Thx man!!! and actually Sephara at turn 3 or 4 can make a really big difference at turn 4 or 5 with rally. I did get Sephara a couple of time on turn 3. powerful card
Great deck! Unfortunately, I have no Hanged Executioners, and I'm not really willing to spend rare WCs on them since they're rotating soon. Anyone have a good replacement?
Correct me if I’m wrong but saladass is Pewdiepie right? I know he plays this game. Either that or it’s someone pretending to be him but I know he used to be mythic ranked
At 14:10 you could've blocked the spirit with yours so he wouldn't be able to activate priest, you lose the spirit anyway. Even if he activates her in response, he loses the mana changing phases
You scared the fuck outta me... I went outside to walk my dog and thought I paused the video... yeah I heard your voice and thought who the fuck is in my house! Hope you laugh like I did once I realized it
I love how you are trying out "budget" decks to appeal to a larger audience! As always, you provide they beat MTGA content out there. Suggestion: try to put the cards (links to other videos) sooner. I think they appear to late after the outro music starts and sometimes I think you just forgot...
Ive been an f2p on arena for 3months or so doing most of the daily grind with a budget flyers deck. Probably 300+ games witha 66% win rate on the play 57% on the draw. Here's my two cents for a budget build. Ardenvale tactician is asuitable swap for the borrower. It is only a common and its interaction to tap two creatures is better in many situations versus the borrower, and can even stop disco rave chick. Its also a 2/3 flyer with no restrictions. Jubliant skybonder as an uncommon should be included in any budget deck. though it is not the card for you if you do not like your opponent touching your cards. it wins you games as it delays the enemy for a turn or keeps your flyers out for a turn. If I have this and an eagle in hand to play it goes down first. Madly you can run just 20 lands and get away with it. You still get flooded. The game weights red decks and flyers decks I assume as they are great budget decks and they want the f2p to do allright. Removal wise sky tether is the best 1 drop. Amazing to drop on a questing beast, sephara or drakuseth. Trapped in the tower is good as well as a two drop but I prefer heliods punishment as it is more versitile. glass casket is good to but it cant deal with everything. banishing light is too slow. You can run a cheeky 4 drop and elit3 guardmage is 2/3 flyer with 3 life and a card, a real bag of value as they say. As a common parhelian patrol aint terrible. If you do have a rare or mythic for a 4/5 drop Kefnet is great at 4 as a distraction carnifex. a 4/5 flyer he's good enough on his own, you rarely use his cast ability but the fact he comes back for more is handy as your opponent will remove him right away. as a 5 drop angel of grace really works as you can swing with opne mana letting the opponent believe they have you next turn.
glad I'm not the only one who doesn't care for the wolf. As a dog lover I felt odd coming to that conclusion, but I really can't stand that it sounds so wounded every time I hit my opponent and is just generally way to noisy
Ive played a lot of this deck and I agree...Rakdos is terrible match-up and there's really nothing you can do. I was trying out the Shacklegeist in place of the Subduals since the Hanged Executioner and Empyrean Eagle are both spirits. It was decent, but doesnt really solve the problem of dying to Priest or Mayhem Devil. Also, I was running a version with Sephara, but that version doesn't mesh well with 4x Rally of Wings. The Skycat is fine though. If you curve out then its just as lethal as the Watcher since it hits for 4 on T3 with an Empyrean or Hanged Executioner. It reliably grows past shock range on T3, so its good against mono-red. I tend to agree about not running 4x though, as drawing multiples without getting perfect mana is pretty awful. Also, running that many double color guys tends to make you lose to the mono-green player with a single Stonecoil bricking your team.
Try Dimir Flash with Disfigure and Heartless Act. It destroys Rakdos Sacrifice and Monored. Uro can be kind of dealt with with Ashioks Erasure. However, Nissa and Ugin destroy you.
Mystic Subdual is pronounced, Miss Tick Sub Dual with emphasis on the Sub. Not Mythic subdual. It means making something no longer dangerous by using some sort of magic.
You'd have a point if he was playing paper magic. 4 mythic wildcards for a spell that gets used in multiple decks and will survive the upcoming rotation isn't a bad investment.
In Arena, Rares are much harder to get than Mythics though. Because there are a lot less mythics than rares. And the good mythics are even less. While rares, you need more than 16 in every deck.
Rank 278 playing worse than bronze. That was so much 'playing around everything' that they just lost. Guess they thought they used all their luck having THREE f*cking Claims, that they go insecure about going for the kill.
when you see the word ”budget” in cgb’s video😳
That rage-quit at 34:46 is just pure bliss.

i had this exact thought
34:45 can't stop laughing from this.
Same here. It's just great. :D
Was big brain 4 sure and funny.
that was a mind game
What am I missing? CGB has Spectral Sailor in hand, wouldn't there be a stop anyway? What did full control change?
@@Jimbo7P The opponent saw the stop when he cast Teferi and assumed CGB had a countersepll for Teferi, so they rage-quit.
Love how the list plays so far-- Absurd Heroine also recently posted a similar list which is worth checking out.
I'm sure he knows it's mystic subdual and is just saying mythic to trigger us :P
100%
Well played CGB, well played
Almost like it's a *calculated* move, like he's come up with some sort of *algorithm*
It did get you to comment.
@@williamwalton9154 thats hardly a rare occurrence tbf
*tilt* us
At 35 minutes in, when the opponent conceded to the stick with their Teferi, I cackled. I’m a U/W control player myself, and that just had me rolling.
CGB: *plays literally any deck*

I agree.
I relied on:
Esscence scatter
Dungeon geists
Conclave Tribunal
I run the flash octopus for card draw and instant speed interactions, it comes in clutch.
I love your videos! Your tone is so relaxing, and the gameplay is exciting! Great job. Azorius flyers is one of my favorite decks to play.

Cool deck. You come up with it all by yourself?

Urik Mainstrum dude, you didn’t even see mayhem devil! If you would have seen that, I think your head would explode because of my deck building prowess!!
Anh Nguyen thank you 😊
This deck is way better then I thought. Thanks as always.
great found lethals man, the deck and your plays look solid!

That victory around the thirty three minute forty-eight second mark was sweet!!
Five minutes in. Just created the deck. Dream curve. Thank you CGB!
22:13 i'm pretty sure all in rally of wings was actually lethal? am I dumb?
I think it was lethal, depending on what they had in their hand. Bounce a Hawk, attack for 21, they can gain 1 from the hawk, and 1 from each of the sacs. Not enough.

34:47 omg your an evil genius. How to play mind games with your opponent 101. Make them paranoid of a counterspell you don't own
I think CGB needs a beard now to duel HGG's new "homeless" beard as he calls it :0
Thanks CGB! What happened to the glass casket you had in a couple of games, it didn't work out? Also, though it may hurt your mana base a little, in another video (your dimir one?) you had a blast zone for dealing with oven, thoughts?
It doesnt solve the Rakdos Sacrifice issue so I think he went back and forth and then removed it.
Cgb, How do you get those Rebecca Guay lands into your deck! its driving me mad that i cant "craft" them and there is no information on how to unlock them! Love that artist.
Really great review! Thank you!
CGB any reason for no Skycat Sovereign? I guess this is a 'kill them dead fast' and SS is a slower engine?
I'd love to see a wolf tribal deck video. Maybe selysna or abzan
Another Deck which needs Aether Vial in Historic Anthology 4 :P
But that's a standard deck.

to this today

If you read the comments, lots of people are already playing this type of deck. Google "Baader-Meinhof".
Glad to see CGB discovered counter-play against Teferi.
Coincidence! I just tried flyers today and it worked great. My build was 4 Lofty 4 Dovin's Veto 4 Sharks.
If I wanted to watch nice people's content, I wouldn't have been here. I crave the evilness.
Is subdual actually better than Glass Casket?
10:06 is one of the most savage games I've ever seen!
I was waiting exactly for this since I'm playing this deck))
Wins 2 games in a row from pure counterspell anxiety 😂
CGB can you do a new Izzet deck? Your last one was the Lutri singleton and all i match up against is aggro, would be really kool kid from you
This is so good, I'm scrying 😂
I just started running this, not the exact list but still cool to see on the channel!
Really good deck!! Thx man!!! and actually Sephara at turn 3 or 4 can make a really big difference at turn 4 or 5 with rally. I did get Sephara a couple of time on turn 3. powerful card

I really like your take on this deck. May I suggest Gust of Wind as an option??
@@forrestrycommittee Couldn't resist the rip, ay? Whatever.
I liked to have a few Runed Halo in my white/blue decks for that Priest
I run Cerulean Drake. Some monored just scoop at the sight of it. Worth it.
Shacklegeist works well with Watcher and Executioner as well
Correct me if I’m wrong but saladass is Pewdiepie right? I know he plays this game. Either that or it’s someone pretending to be him but I know he used to be mythic ranked
Nah, it was me, I used to watch pewdiepie a lot when I made my account hence the name
How does he has the mouse so tiny?
You missed lethal! (Somewhere for sure)
At 14:10 you could've blocked the spirit with yours so he wouldn't be able to activate priest, you lose the spirit anyway. Even if he activates her in response, he loses the mana changing phases
Gabriel Grassia the fact he attacked with the spirit in the first place kind of tells you he’s got a 1 drop post combat to sac to priest anyway
You scared the fuck outta me... I went outside to walk my dog and thought I paused the video... yeah I heard your voice and thought who the fuck is in my house!

take out mystic subdual for 2 cakes on a brain. Fabled passage for Miscreant?
