If Invoke Despair gets banned, maybe 5cc Sheoldred can see some Standard play. She is really good, and absolutely nasty as a commander. Another example of a sweet card that you can't play in Standard without knowingly making your deck worse because of Invoke. BAN INVOKE! BAN BAN BAN BAN!
Been playing her in a shell with Jace and Founding for the past few weeks and have to say she's pretty fun in standard. Hoping an invoke ban makes that kind of deck closer to a competitive list.
I’m so happy when I see a new historic brawl video from you. It doesn’t make sense to me why you don’t get as many views on these as standard. So much more fun here!
It's hard for me to believe there are intelligent people that don't understand. People don't play brawl. It is about 2-3% of the Arena population. Is that what you would make videos about if you were in CGBs shoes?
@@mikeyj.philly Not surprising, I can hardly find enough good or decent cards to play a 60 card deck, let alone a 100 card deck with a much bigger pool of powerful rares and mythics, but man if it's not fun to watch.
Yeah I’ve been holding back my scoops and playing out the whole game. Sometimes you come up and it makes you a better player by dealing with the hard situations
@@StaleBranflakes yeah, same. I learned that from Legenvd, love the guy, he always likes to play until his HP reaches zero and you wouldn't believe how often he actually pulls off a comeback. Me - not so much but I am still learning 😅
normally i'd agree, but i think that with a deck that's as much board wipe + removal tribal as this one, i'd stick it out too, or else feel like a failure as a deck builder. ngl though, the chances were still pretty slim. there's still lands in there, and not much can deal with that ulamog.
I love Historic Brawl, so I definitely don't mind more Historic Brawl content! Would be neat if you tried to play all of the other MOM Praetors, they all can be crazy if built right.
Absolutely love your Historic Brawl videos! ♥ Also I just wanted to say ever since the release of Midnight hunt I've watched every single one of your videos, and have gone back and watched even earlier ones. Keep up the good work that you've always done!
I have watched almost all of the CGB videos. I’ve been watching every day for 4-5 years and then during the big CGB break (and when I’m just wanting more) I’ve watched so many videos back.
Well CGB, you talked me into it: I’m a Historic Brawl guy now. I started playing MTG a year ago and have been hesitant on HB because I don’t have any spells/ramp from old sets. And as a F2P player, I don’t have a lot of wildcards to craft the decks I might like. But anything has to be better than Standard right now. 1 year in and a lot of the love I had for MTG has been killed by the format. Hoping HB will be the thing to pull me back in.
Thats how i was when i started a couple yrs ago. Did standard and got annoyed of Angela and red aggro. Did historic that was fun. Than went into Historic Brawl and have stopped since! Much funner. More plays. Combos. Etc once you have wild cards youll be set 90% of decks. Since majority of decks use the same 70 cards. Lands is what costs the most
Since you asked for a comment I’ll say this; I systematically watch EVERY video you put out on this channel, including the links to CoolStuff and Arena channels. Historic brawl is fantastic, I watch all of it. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much CGB for these historic brawl videos! As someone who’s not a good deck builder I love using the decks you post and making small changes to them and they’re always fun!
I have watched for several years now and I love the Brawl videos almost as much as I love the Worst Possible Commander stuff. Always so much fun to watch!
43:55 "This is not commander, you don't play your commander and expect to have it live." LOL, with my commander playgroup, I already don't play my commanders with any expectation that they will live. Then again, I have an Ur-Dragon deck and a Kozilek, the Great Distortion deck, so I can't really blame them 😂 10 mana commanders are scary 😅
1:27 Like I told you at Magiccon Minneapolis, I have, in fact, watched pretty much every one of your videos. At least every one on the main channel and CovertGoCrew and CovertGoTwo, and most of them on the CoolStuffInc and the Magic Arena channels, and definitely a few others like Extra Turns on the Command Zone and the one you did recently with PleasantKenobi. ...Just realized how stalker-ish that sounds. Honestly it's not that, it just adds up. The consistent uploads are great for low key evening entertainment while I make and eat supper.
I've definitely watched every video that you have released lol and most of them I've watched as they come out. And always stay until the end, even before the "you're cool" ending started
I have been here since the beginning, the very first month of the MTGA. I only had to to go backwards to watch previous videos in the same season at the very start. I would still rather watch historic brawl.
I have learned so much from watching your vids and using some of your decks, thank you so much. I wish I could chat with you to learn how to build better decks, cause I freaking love that Tyvar deck and play it like no ones buisiness hahaha.
You have become my favorite youtuber! I like your commentary, witty and intellectual. I hope to see you play more azorius control in standard. I'm also brewing a Grand arbiter azorius commander with the theme "Control". Based on your standard control decks with cards like farewell, reckoner bankbuster, memory deluge, sunfall etc. Care to take the challange and make one in historic brawl? :) I am most definitely subscribing!
I believe I have watched every gameplay video released since circa mid 2019, somewhere a little before the former F2P channel was created/around when "Young CGB" was a thing.
I have a deck I call mono black saga control that runs this sheoldred and I went up against a mono blue Hati Jin kraken abuser and I pulled two Hati jins and a kraken out of his graveyard and sheoldred flipped back over and I had the 4 mana sheoldred in hand about to play it and opponent conceded. I was at 6 life and he was still at 20.
I have watched every video you have ever put out. Make MOARE! :-P I am trying to get into streaming myself but I cant afford the cost to get all the cards needed to do the sort of thing you do.
I wished they would just announce the Standard bans already, but if we are going to get more Historic Brawl content..... Wizards you can wait. June, July, whatever. Take your time.
Has equipment been good since Stoneforge Mythic was banned in its Standard... oh geez...12* years ago?? Seems like a crazy amount of time for the design team to still be reeling from that atrocity. :P Bring back the Cawblade control shell, cowards!
Currently, I play explorer. Slightly better and a little bit more versatile as a format. I never played historic brawl! But watching your videos, I think I will try! So, thanks for the deck ideas!

yes
I second this motion
50ccs of sheodred stat!
Been playing her in a shell with Jace and Founding for the past few weeks and have to say she's pretty fun in standard. Hoping an invoke ban makes that kind of deck closer to a competitive list.
If you had to pick between Thalia and Invoke, which one would you ban?
I’m so happy when I see a new historic brawl video from you. It doesn’t make sense to me why you don’t get as many views on these as standard. So much more fun here!

Big same. This is the most exciting content that exists for MTGA!
Because it is way harder to play so people stay away from it
@Zaxomio yeah but the same gold and mythic are used in 80% of Brawl decks. So honestly pretty cheap once you spend a bit
Loving the new extra scene at the beginning of the videos! THIS IS HISTORIC BRAWL! LET'S GOOOOO!
I would have scooped so fast in that Vorinclex game when I saw the Ulamog come in after the opponent had cast Emrakul. Insane persistence on your part
Yeah I’ve been holding back my scoops and playing out the whole game. Sometimes you come up and it makes you a better player by dealing with the hard situations

Second game was insane. Wiped out a horde of eldrazi in one fell swoop.
I love Historic Brawl, so I definitely don't mind more Historic Brawl content!
Would be neat if you tried to play all of the other MOM Praetors, they all can be crazy if built right.
The others except urabrask are in other videos
@@Zacama_27 well clearly CGB needs to play an Urabrask Ruby Storm deck xD
Absolutely love your Historic Brawl videos! ♥ Also I just wanted to say ever since the release of Midnight hunt I've watched every single one of your videos, and have gone back and watched even earlier ones. Keep up the good work that you've always done!
That Blood on the Snow top deck was one of the greatest top decks of all time.
Dude watching I’m sitting here saying blood on the snow blood on the snow. Then it happens and I shout in excitement lol.
That was sweet, then the big brain play to plus Karn and animate the Swiftfoot Boots was awesome
I have watched almost all of the CGB videos. I’ve been watching every day for 4-5 years and then during the big CGB break (and when I’m just wanting more) I’ve watched so many videos back.

16:20 Did you steal a Millennium Puzzle? Pretty much the perfect draw to you out of that.
43:55 "This is not commander, you don't play your commander and expect to have it live."
LOL, with my commander playgroup, I already don't play my commanders with any expectation that they will live. Then again, I have an Ur-Dragon deck and a Kozilek, the Great Distortion deck, so I can't really blame them 😂 10 mana commanders are scary 😅
You've gotten me hooked on Brawl. So much fun! Damn you.
I think I have watched every video you have released since a few years ago. You are part of my daily YouTue watching routine lol
At this point I’m pretty much only playing historic brawl, so I am here for it.
Ive seen every video standard alchemy historic brawl you name it since 2020. Top 3 CC ever. Youre cool cgb
26:45 "Liiiliana Vess? Smash!"
CGB, 2023
That was the most insane blood on the snow ever
I’ve watched all of your standard videos before your break last year, Since then I haven’t kept up
Your Historic Brawl content is my fave content. Until the bans happen, please keep us up entertained with Brawl.
Used to be a Standard player for years, but nowadays I almost exclusively play historic brawl. Keep the brawl videos coming, enjoying them a lot!
I have watched every video since I started playing MTGA when Kaldhiem dropped. CGB, You're very cool!
That blood on the snow was so clutch you had the liver of the cards on that one
1:27 Like I told you at Magiccon Minneapolis, I have, in fact, watched pretty much every one of your videos.
At least every one on the main channel and CovertGoCrew and CovertGoTwo, and most of them on the CoolStuffInc and the Magic Arena channels, and definitely a few others like Extra Turns on the Command Zone and the one you did recently with PleasantKenobi.

Man I love historic brawl, such a fun format to play and watch
I've definitely watched every video that you have released lol and most of them I've watched as they come out. And always stay until the end, even before the "you're cool" ending started
I’ve seen every standard video since I started playing Standard back in Eldraine.
Just wanted to say I really like the new intros. Sweet new addition.
"I promise you haven't watched all of them"
.... I have a life... I swear... I feel attacked
16:38 That was insane!
I’ve watched em all CGB, cool stuff inc, mtg channel, I’m here for the nonsense and you have provided
have not miss a video since first lockdown. YOU are cool CGB
I enjoy the Historic Brawl videos! :D
Love the HB brews. Looks like it was a ton of fun.
I have watched all your standard videos from Strixhaven on :) ❤
ive seen all of your videos. best MTG content creator on youtube, not even a contest.
I have watched all of your videos, no questions about it. Being in the hospital somewhat frequently has its perks, I guess.
That Blood on the Snow draw was so fckin lucky LMAO
I'm always here for CovertGoBrawl
Just found out I get way more happiness through your videos than I would have in any hour of my usual gameplay
now you definitely have to make a superior equipment deck CGB
I'm such a fanatic for this sheoldred, I desperately hope she can be playable in standard some day.
The new format intros are awesome.
Ive been watching since day 300 of the old days' streak. You are cool, cgb.
I have watched every single one of your videos. At least on your primary account. You are really a daily part of my life--take that as you will.
I have been here since the beginning, the very first month of the MTGA. I only had to to go backwards to watch previous videos in the same season at the very start. I would still rather watch historic brawl.
Love that you switch between standard and brawl
I’ve watched them all.. don’t think I’ve missed a day in 2 years
is there a reason to not run cabal stronghold?
20:40 I really would have liked to see The True Scriptures returning all those big boys to the battlefield under your control
I have learned so much from watching your vids and using some of your decks, thank you so much. I wish I could chat with you to learn how to build better decks, cause I freaking love that Tyvar deck and play it like no ones buisiness hahaha.
I can't say that I've seen ever single video (alchemy...) But I have seen nearly all! It's part of my bedtime routine
I don't care which format it is, I'm always up to see a black deck
You have become my favorite youtuber! I like your commentary, witty and intellectual. I hope to see you play more azorius control in standard. I'm also brewing a Grand arbiter azorius commander with the theme "Control". Based on your standard control decks with cards like farewell, reckoner bankbuster, memory deluge, sunfall etc. Care to take the challange and make one in historic brawl? :) I am most definitely subscribing!
13:32 Did the Control player not like that play? lol
I believe I have watched every gameplay video released since circa mid 2019, somewhere a little before the former F2P channel was created/around when "Young CGB" was a thing.
Exciting Sheoldred Gameplaty = Thank you father blue for once again gracing us with a blessed video 🙏
i am fairly certain I've watched every video from you for the last few years
No Tergrid for the sac synergies ?
Ive watched all your videos standard or not since 2019. Much love
good point with equipt rares being bunk woc printing non playables
I haven't watched all of your videos, but after I got laid off middle of 2022...I certainly watched a good share of them lol
A lot of people would resign when emrukal resolved. But that’s why you stick it out
I have watched the 1000 videos, cgb. You upload on my lunch time.
I heard a puppy!!!!! Yes they're dogs. But they're always your puppies.
Oh! Thats why Im facing a lot of sheoldreds today lol
CovertGoPoo is how you play mtg arena at work.
why not cabal stronghold?
ehm i actually watched 'em all XD but i love historic brawl as well! great job!!!
Loving the shorter intro/deck tech portion
Question: why do you not play historic ranked?
I have in fact watched your whole (past Ikoria) standard library.
That's okay, I like historic brawl more.
Why not run Davriel?
I felt so bad for the opponent with the mutavault. Ugh 😂
Yo that intro was fire!
I've never skipped a standard video
at max I've wanted like 10 minutes and then fell asleep (I'm in eu so the videos go out at evening)
I'm never gonna see Sheoldred's Rise of the Dark Realms am I
I have a deck I call mono black saga control that runs this sheoldred and I went up against a mono blue Hati Jin kraken abuser and I pulled two Hati jins and a kraken out of his graveyard and sheoldred flipped back over and I had the 4 mana sheoldred in hand about to play it and opponent conceded. I was at 6 life and he was still at 20.
I'll never complain about historic brawl
I have watched every video you’ve released on CGB, CG2, coolstuffinc, and MTGA channels since I started in April of last year…does that count? 😂
I've watched them all.
I’ve watched every cgb video start to finish since the streak was in the mid 200s 😅
I have watched every video you have ever put out. Make MOARE! :-P I am trying to get into streaming myself but I cant afford the cost to get all the cards needed to do the sort of thing you do.
Historic Brawl is the only reason I watch
oh this one's gonna be good
I have watched and liked all of your standard videos sir
why no cabal land :(
Have you tried standard brawl? That is my favorite format, and I wonder if you’d like it (Urabrarask Storm is especially sweet, as is Mondrak tokens)?
I wished they would just announce the Standard bans already, but if we are going to get more Historic Brawl content..... Wizards you can wait. June, July, whatever. Take your time.
Why Damnation is not on Arena?
Has equipment been good since Stoneforge Mythic was banned in its Standard... oh geez...12* years ago??
Seems like a crazy amount of time for the design team to still be reeling from that atrocity. :P
Bring back the Cawblade control shell, cowards!
Nice Deck ❤
I've watched every single video you've released since I found you in August, does that count? lol
Just saying that a second take on the intro might have been on point. Play 0:52-0:54 through a few times and see if you concur.
Currently, I play explorer. Slightly better and a little bit more versatile as a format. I never played historic brawl! But watching your videos, I think I will try! So, thanks for the deck ideas!
Have you considered posting limited content?
