CGB is my favorite MTGA UA-camr because he just has absolutely no shame. Man is pure evil control player and its my favorite thing. The cackling around 2:00 is just 👌
@@casimiroperez2775 but there always have been combo decks which rush to assemble and finish the game asap and control decks which just have combo pieces in their finisher slots. One can be a combo control player ;)
Congrats CGB on having the most viewed Historic Brawl video on YT for Baral Brawl!!! He is a nasty Commander, almost as nasty as Urza, Lord High Artificer......those blue wizards are on another level. I've always loved control magic and seeing everything get countered is just beautiful!!!
I mean I love blue but man this deck is evil. I think this is what other people think the typical blue deck looks like. 30% counterspells, 30% carddraw 40% land and like a single wincon thats either shark typhoon or the opponent scooping from despair.
My first experience of seeing you play mono-counterspells is MY personal favorite, Thryx, Sudden Storm. I think it's older than the Baral one, but I've never felt such joy as seeing you in your element.
Can't wait for the new set to land just as this deck is popular. There are two new Green creatures I can just add to my decks which will make life miserable for Baral players lol
I saw a lot of comments about AcidCitrus before I watched the video, and I have to say, AcidCitrus is even more of an absolute legend than I expected. Played it out like a boss.
Daaaaaannnnng Acidcitrus is the most gritty player I've seen. In gameplay where people enter scoop phase as soon as they lose advantage, they kept it going!
I have an idea for a future deck, maybe something that you can work on. Kykar Transmogrify. Use transmogrify and Lukka to turn one of Kykar's tokens into a hullbreaker horror and loop cheap permanents to make infite flying tokens
I had that idea but with saheeli sublime artificer since it creates both artifact and creature tokens, and it’s ability can turn your servos into the threat you hit
@@josephgabel234 I had built the deck with Saheeli originally, but then i realized Kykar makes the storming off easier because it makes mana whereas Saheeli doesn't. Also white gives you access to better removal and sweepers so you can stay alive longer.
I deleted my Baral's deck because I found it was fringe Hell queue: it was always put in the Hell queue, but there it was the weakest! I will try now your updated version.
I've asked this before, but didn't get an answer. I haven watched any CGB videos in a while but I did watch some now and was wondering if this is a Historic Brawl only channel now. Is it?
IF you look up the dictionary definition of the phrase "like a pig in sh!t", it's just a link to CGB playing that Golos deck. If only Yorion were legal in this deck, CGB's life would be complete.
Against Sythis, CGB saying he hates enchantress-type effects in decks and he doesn't know why... it's cause they draw more cards than the blue mage, that's why ;)
Those first two games, wow. I mean the first game literally didn't happen, and after watching the second one I don't blame either of their concessions.
New off-channel standard video - shigeki control 😈🌲
ua-cam.com/video/bzJiJ6DpL6s/v-deo.html
AcidCitrus playing it out like a true Chad.
Mad respect for AcidCitrus for going all the way through with the game. He was a great sport.
Acid citrus was smiling and having fun the whole time !!!
You have no idea how much I was hoping the second opponent would concede at the exact same time as the other one.
AcidCitrus has a high tolerance for punishment
CGB is my favorite MTGA UA-camr because he just has absolutely no shame. Man is pure evil control player and its my favorite thing. The cackling around 2:00 is just 👌
Nah, he’s a combo player as demonstrated by his 74747382645 paradox engine decks.
@@casimiroperez2775 but there always have been combo decks which rush to assemble and finish the game asap and control decks which just have combo pieces in their finisher slots. One can be a combo control player ;)
Every punishment against Grixis is fair
@@casimiroperez2775 TIL 5 paradox engine decks in the last full month = 74747382645 decks
Countering everything isn't control. It's permission. And not fun to 1v1
Just played against Baral, they counterd all my spells and enchanted Baral with the new enchantment that drew a card every turn. Had so much fun...
I used to play Baral as the 5th through 7th Goblin Electromancer in my Storm deck.
AcidCitris must be a big fan. When you're a fan of CGB and he's beating you down with all blue, you've made it.
HARDCAST SHARK TYPHOON
Excellent video. All the friends lost. All the counters cast. Amazing stuff.
Every frickin time!
This is gold. The instant scoop was too good
Timmy's having fun
Baral: Wait that's illegal!
AcidCitrus you are a real hero! Much love!
I'm AcidCitrus golos deck. I hate your deck, sincerely, a fan :D
you are very cool
Thanks for not being soft. It was so fun
Ha, I don't think I would concede if I saw CGB either. Getting owned by the one in best of one is a rite of passage.
You’re awesome dude seriously.

That was the best memory deluge for two I have ever seen!
Can't wait to see the influx of more Baral decks after this drops. I just concede when I see this commander.
Same, he is my archnemesis.
I built my izzet Niv just to get some easy auto concedes from mono blue full control and the likes.
Weak.
Weak.
Weak.
Acid Citrus, the real hero of the video

Can't seem to find this one, would you care to share?
Went back to watch the original baral deck. I like the revisits!
His gleeful little laugh at around 30:10 sent me to orbit
"How to lose even more friends" Implying that I had friends.
I would have guessed Brusko. Had 3 people straight concede today when they saw him as my commander. All three were me on the draw...
Can't wait for the new set to land just as this deck is popular. There are two new Green creatures I can just add to my decks which will make life miserable for Baral players lol
why scoop to control decks when you can just build your deck to prey on them ✌
I played Niv against CGB once in historic brawl and he conceded instantly after I countered his first spell. Just remembering that atm.
He conceded against me after I dropped esper sentinel turn one
I was like "why do you leave so soon, I guess I'm not going on tv"
Sometimes you just don’t have it 🤷🏻♀️ I don’t get your point
the first bolas instantly conceding sent me
That first opponent... lol I'm dead
I hope to play against players like AcidCitrus.
LOL I just watched that original video yesterday! I keep hearing about hell que and Baral but...so few Baral videos! This is EXACTLY what I wanted!
Where's the toski opponent playing turn 1 [[Allosaurus Shepherd]]?
I saw a lot of comments about AcidCitrus before I watched the video, and I have to say, AcidCitrus is even more of an absolute legend than I expected. Played it out like a boss.
Love you acid citrus! Thanks for sticking around even tho that's hella annoying to play against
That first opponent was just like "nnnnnoooope" 😂😂
"Do you know the counter man???"
"The Counter Man?"
"THE COUNTER MAN!!!"
This was delightful! Yay team evil! Love this, thanks so much for the video.
This commander and liliana 3 mana discard are two commanders i auto scoop to
I came here for the early concedes. I was not disappointed 🤣😂🤣
What do you mulligan for with Bolas? Thought Distortion!!! Comes late, but when it does and the Baral player has no Commit or similiar, it can be gg.
Love all your content. Really enjoyed the first game with an instant scoop 😆
I just asked about this the other day so glad you are plyaing it!
Watching CGB play Baral is incredible.
AcidCitrus really went the distance, what a G
Daaaaaannnnng Acidcitrus is the most gritty player I've seen. In gameplay where people enter scoop phase as soon as they lose advantage, they kept it going!
I got to Mythic just watching CGB, thanks Human!
This is perfect timing… I just rewatched your first one and was about to build it 😂
"casual draw 5" ---- I luv it 😂
BARAL, THAT MENACE!
anyways time to break out the Allosaurus Shepherd, Domri, Rampage, etc.

AcidCitrus stayed on the game longer than my dad stayed with me before buying milk
As someone who will hover a vanilla, I will continue to touch your cards.
This was beautiful :,)
Thank you.
Can someone clarify whether a creature equipped with embercleave loses double strike when hit with witness protection?
I deleted my Baral's deck because I found it was fringe Hell queue: it was always put in the Hell queue, but there it was the weakest! I will try now your updated version.

Historic Brawl content until early Feb (new set release then)
It is until the next standard set comes out
Then things will go back to normal
He's just bored with current standard
ok, got it. Feb 7. Thanks guys!
Now I want to know if the first player conceded immediately cause they saw their opponent was CGB...or cause they were up against Baral!?
Acid Citrus is the strongest peron I've ever seen!
Open up youtube and see a vid uploaded 10 seconds ago. Today is gonna be a good day
IF you look up the dictionary definition of the phrase "like a pig in sh!t", it's just a link to CGB playing that Golos deck. If only Yorion were legal in this deck, CGB's life would be complete.
Oh, and props to AcidCitrus for sticking it out!
baral feels terrible to play against, but i think we all know the villain of this format is paradox engine
The second Bolas did mulligan for Chromatic Lantern no doubt in my mind lol
The only deck I could not consistently beat with Baral is Kinan
If I play this deck, is there other another metric in hell queue to match me since my ladder score has never been very high?
Is there a reason why you do not record in 4k? Thank you for the videos though, I find them highly entertaining =D
Hi @covertgoblue, that 4ndrew was me and my friend who watches your videos sent me this after seeing that you played me! 9:56
You sir, are a monster!
eventually Shark typhoon woopwoop
Baral is banned in 1v1 commander for a reason not impressed
MAN..ROUND1GAME 1..took one look and...nope not today..love Baral..wait where yall going
AcidCitrus is chiseled in stone 😂
Looks like I'll be staying away from Hell Queue for awhile.
would this deck work in a 4 man table?
Funnily enough, not really, but it will make the game take MUCH longer
@@TheNaturalnuke I was thinking the same lol
There are only two commanders I instantly quit Baral and Tergrid
Could you try and build a historic brawl artifact deck?
Respect to AcidCitrus 👍
I made a niv mizzet deck just for this commander. Sadly the match maker won't put me against him when I play niv mizzet.
I bet CGB already did the prismatic bridge/Jim Gitaxis video but he'll release it upon 169420 subs.
Against Sythis, CGB saying he hates enchantress-type effects in decks and he doesn't know why... it's cause they draw more cards than the blue mage, that's why ;)
Those first two games, wow. I mean the first game literally didn't happen, and after watching the second one I don't blame either of their concessions.
CGB playing Baral: Not the hero we deserved, but the hero we needed.
He's back
Well that was fun!
Why aren't you using the land that gives you infinite hand size?
Acid Citrus, Chiseled in Stone.
Me who owns a baral deck irl*
And has more access to evil*
And also sythis*
Baral in Brawl will make em bawl.
Clearly, the true greatest villain is CGB. Baral is just CGB's henchman. 🤣
Normally, I just watch arena UA-cam videos... But this made me want to fire up the arena client again. ;)
As per the UA-cam Covenant: you play your opponent's cards better than them, you get a like and comment.
Also, I will not skip the adverts.
I snort laughed at the first game loloolol
Thank you for not cycling shark typhoon.
Wow, the very strongest opponent. I don't think I've ever actually killed someone with Baral.
Imagine how evil this is gonna get when Mindsplice Apparatus is out! Muahahahah!
AcidCitrus is a better person than most and did not deserve the misery.
What a great first matchup 🤣🤣🤣
Please build Talrand Sky Summoner deck with the counterspells/bounces and beat with army of flyers tokens
I can't lose friends if I don't have any
CGB…you cold
I always instantly concede to Baral.
Anyone else notice he's close to 169,420?
I wish Baral were this good in commander
