@@LegenVD I been playing a version i havent seen anyone else play. Its jeskai with Rona, the pia nalar who makes thopters, inti, eruth tormented prohpet, and rustler rampage from OTJ to untap the board. The wrens resolve and reckless impulse rip through the deck. This version is surprisingly fast and has many different avenues to victory. Would love to see you run it. ✌✌
@@LegenVD The versions I've seen involve Rakdos joins up, Rona, Ruts and Drivnod for a one turn kill. After all this time I still only have one Rona and never play the esper archetypes that use the card so never crafted. As standard is coming up to rotation it's interesting seeing what I only have 1-2 of and worked around, or what I now belatedly have the full 4.
Bro. Seriously. Not to sound corny, but your videos actually do hold a lot of value. It's not just "hey here's the deck, let's go." You take the time to make sure that even if you're brand new to the game you can follow this rather complex deck. Absolutely outstanding. Also, 69 comments. Nice.
35:00 You playing to your outs and still keeping that game in is the reason I chose to like this video. It's an awesome example of doing your best to play to your outs, even if it didn't pan out. This deck captured the essence of that saying better than most. Awesome video throughout.
Awesome combo explination with the clips! I'll add I was doing a similar combo with the caverns gods that return as lands (or Edgar) and Invasion of Amonkhet, but this one is much easier as you don't need to flip a battle. Nice stuff!
Thank you for another great video Luca! I know this channel focuses mostly on standard gameplay, yet I adore your brawl/commander brews lots as well and would appreciate if you can make them more frequently in the future!💜
Didn't even put down Tinybones but that match was still criminal. After they activated the Mirrex to eliminate their priority, they finally hovered over their initiate right at the end😂
Important to note: this deck is rotation-proof. The other 4 color legend/combo deck is devistated by rotation, losing a large number of important cards. So once rotation happens, this might be the way to go.
At 40:00, you do have the option of making an arbitrarily large Bartolome, by holding full control, casting Rutstein, and then saccing the other Rutstien before the one on the stack resolves.
I think you’d be able to make an infinitely large Bartolome at 41:00. Each time you cast Rutstein, you can hold priority to sacrifice the old Rutstein for a +1/+1 counter.
I also was experimenting with a double combo legend list---- the combo I had was Loran (4 mana, whenever a legend etbs return artifact to hand) with 2 syr ginger, mana reduction for 2 (rutstein + mana rock or kenriths royal funeral. With the benefit being not needing any sac outlets in the deck, but also perhaps weaker cards overall
Since people finally figured this out I’ve been having trouble keeping a Rona alive. Did this months ago… Using Loran and something like Skrelv or Syr Ginger you can loop ping damage endlessly. It’s just easier now with Joins Up, Rutstein, etc
At 24:10 you say that you "can't cast Cut Down until Bartolomé sticks around", but worth noting is that Plaza of Heroes cares about legendary *permanents*, so Tinybones Joins Up would have given you the black mana as well.
You play so many decks in every format most of which seem to be patreon chosen What is your personal favorite format on arena and your favorite archtype to play?
I actually use a Orzhov sac deck with the Danitha combo works well enough even without her although an 'indestructible' vigilant lifelinker is not bad. 😂
“Man. Wtf is it on my board that keeps holding up the timer?” >hovers over initiate >activates M I R R E X instead Lisan Al Gaib. He must have seen something we couldn’t I guess 💀
Hey, so I'm finding it hard to figure out which format you are playing ever since you changed the video names to action titles. How do I know if you're playing standard, historic or explorer? thanks!
Check out the format playlists on my channel page! It’s also noted in the video description and I mention the format in the first few seconds of the video.
Just to help your mouse hand as you rip off the combos, anytime you want to hit the 'submit' button you can simply press space bar. That should save you some time/aches!
Murdering Rona right at the end reminded me of the time that you attacked with the faithful companion for 19 damage over 19 turns and then sacrificed it right at the end. LVD seems like a great guy, but he will throw you under the bus in the end if it means he'll win.
Has combos in standard have been on the rise over the past few years or so? Not complaining at all, just really curious. Standard has been reaching higher and higher power levels seemingly each and every set! So long as there are ways to interact within the standard card pool, I can never be mad at combo decks. They're just inherently cool! Thanks so much for another awesome deck Luca!! ❤️😊🤘🔥
Not a big fan of this crime mechanic, Tiny Bones joins up could've been "each opponent" but instead it has to be this annoying "any number of targets" that slows down the Arena combos.
Combos in arena are so bad for both parties. Takes so long. They really need a “do x amount of times” option after repeating the same action 3 or more times.
Love the mini demonstration of combos while you explain them in the intro, really helpful
Glad you like them!

Did a version of that combo a while back with slightly different cards ua-cam.com/video/eN7hPWWgDgg/v-deo.htmlsi=vqCWWtMS8CBc3pDA@@howwegrowcanna
@@LegenVD wow. Just when I thought I found something different 😆

The EDITING THO. It took me two full minutes to realize Waltz of the Flowers was playing and what it meant. You are an absolute mad lad. Love it.
By far my favorite running gag is the slowly fading in classical music as things begin to become unhinged.
Bro. Seriously.

Seems like at the very end, the last opponent finally read the initiate lol
Read the Initiate, then proceeded to activate Mirrex instead =D
I would have been completely lost without the mini demo. Great editing!
Last opponent hovering over the initiate after activating mirrex😂

It's an awesome example of doing your best to play to your outs, even if it didn't pan out.

Awesome video throughout.
Visually showing the combo while talking about it in the deck tech is such a nice touch, commenting and liking just because of how cool that is
Last game opponent figured out that something is holding priority. "Must be mirrex"
Yeah and then a few seconds later we can see he's intensely reading Initiate, and probably screaming internally. 49:56
Awesome combo explination with the clips!
I'll add I was doing a similar combo with the caverns gods that return as lands (or Edgar) and Invasion of Amonkhet, but this one is much easier as you don't need to flip a battle. Nice stuff!
When that classical music starts playing...
You know it's gonna be good!
When Legend uploads, I drop everything and click
RIP Baby
RIP Baby
The music in match 6 🤣
Opened UA-cam App and instantly watched it❤
Thank you for another great video Luca! I know this channel focuses mostly on standard gameplay, yet I adore your brawl/commander brews lots as well and would appreciate if you can make them more frequently in the future!💜
I missed the classical music during combos! Glad to hear/see it again 😂
You perfectly timed the last note of the Waltz so well with the opponent exploding. Lovely
Didn't even put down Tinybones but that match was still criminal.
After they activated the Mirrex to eliminate their priority, they finally hovered over their initiate right at the end😂
LVD and CGB with same thumbnail caption released at the same time. Nice!
Great minds think alike.
Good for CGB for uploading actual gameplay
Coolest deck I've seen in some time! Great job!
Glad you like it!
Standard is a perfectly balanced game with no exploits.
Needs more tea
There was an extra 9 hours footage of tea drinking through floods and droughts
Good to see youre still around brother i just started playing again and i remembered my boy legenvd has the best content put there
Welcome back!
Someone needs to make a playlist of all of LegenVD's classical music overlay videos! They are all amazing! 🎵
" our opponent is going to figure out at some point that they're dead " Lmao
Important to note: this deck is rotation-proof. The other 4 color legend/combo deck is devistated by rotation, losing a large number of important cards. So once rotation happens, this might be the way to go.
Give it a couple weeks, on to the next one
I love those legend aristrocrat decks!
Hello, and thank you for this deck combo. Legendary my dude!
Thought about something like this after watching the pro tour. Didnt have time to peice it all together.
Loving the standard brews lately! Ace stuff!
what a great deck! can't wait to try it out
I’ve been really happy with how well the honest rustein does
At 40:00, you do have the option of making an arbitrarily large Bartolome, by holding full control, casting Rutstein, and then saccing the other Rutstien before the one on the stack resolves.
At 10:00 you could play rutstein bringing back bartolome to hand for an extra activation on rona potentially finding a lethal draw.
For sure, but wanted to keep Rutstein in hand in case we didn't win right away and they could remove one of our combo pieces.
I think you’d be able to make an infinitely large Bartolome at 41:00. Each time you cast Rutstein, you can hold priority to sacrifice the old Rutstein for a +1/+1 counter.
The first game really showed the joy of playing infinit combos on arena.
finally, i played the orzhov variant and i think you can build a better gameplan.
thank you so much
I also was experimenting with a double combo legend list---- the combo I had was Loran (4 mana, whenever a legend etbs return artifact to hand) with 2 syr ginger, mana reduction for 2 (rutstein + mana rock or kenriths royal funeral. With the benefit being not needing any sac outlets in the deck, but also perhaps weaker cards overall
The Channel Is growing 🎉🎉🎉
Love your bromance with CGB❤.
Since people finally figured this out I’ve been having trouble keeping a Rona alive. Did this months ago…
Using Loran and something like Skrelv or Syr Ginger you can loop ping damage endlessly. It’s just easier now with Joins Up, Rutstein, etc
10/10 music
I generally dont feel bad for people, but that was a good chunk of their life that the opponent from game 1 will never get back.
At 24:10 you say that you "can't cast Cut Down until Bartolomé sticks around", but worth noting is that Plaza of Heroes cares about legendary *permanents*, so Tinybones Joins Up would have given you the black mana as well.
Good point!
This looks like a deck that would be so much nicer in paper where you can just show the combo and say "Now I put 100 counters on Bartolomé"
You play so many decks in every format most of which seem to be patreon chosen
What is your personal favorite format on arena and your favorite archtype to play?
Brawl for the variety!
I actually use a Orzhov sac deck with the Danitha combo works well enough even without her although an 'indestructible' vigilant lifelinker is not bad. 😂
“Man. Wtf is it on my board that keeps holding up the timer?”
>hovers over initiate
>activates M I R R E X instead
Lisan Al Gaib. He must have seen something we couldn’t I guess 💀
This is pure evil. Thumbs up!
This is like... Third iteration of thumbnail already KEKW
Which one did you prefer?
I kinda wish there were a few Ratadrabiks in there, that’d be saucy

Bigger formats often lead to more combos, so it’s not that surprising!
The initiate may be hopeful but it seems like the opponent was quite hopeless :D
The last game was like: Spoon Assassin
The classic music is a nice touch but aI really miss Legend using the elevator music
I actually wish tiny bone joins up didn’t ping so it could be a slower more agonizing mill win lol
This deck probably plays out better on paper xD
You can do 1 of the combo better with rakdos joins up
How so?
I think you annoyed the first opponent to concession LMAO.
Ngl how many times you have to click for Tiny Bones Joins Up feels like a punishment for playing this deck. No fast combos in this deck.
god bless netdeckers who don't know how their cards work.
Not a big fan of this crime mechanic, Tiny Bones joins up could've been "each opponent" but instead it has to be this annoying "any number of targets" that slows down the Arena combos.
Upside is that you can occasionally mill yourself now, but it does slow things down.
I was so sad watching game 5... that's why you always play to the end, though
gonna be a real sad time on this channel when rona/relic rotate out
arena needs better support for combos.
they need better coder
Combos in arena are so bad for both parties. Takes so long. They really need a “do x amount of times” option after repeating the same action 3 or more times.
Thanks! I hate it!
Nooo es el doble combo
The symphony at the end.. and the idiotic misplay of the century..
What a shitshow standard has become it's as bad as vesuvean duplimancy Nd trailblazer or slickshot.
