I love standard event videos. I feel like going for even money, then 7 wins, or even the coveted 7-0, creates mini-narrative arcs and tensions. Each win and loss has weight
100% agreed
One of my favorite content creators named Average Gamer only does videos playing events like these. His builds clean up petty well and he's funny on top of that. CGB's fun to watch no matter what he plays, but watching him doing standard event was all the more better.
Me too, I really enjoyed this video! And I love drafting, so trying to go even feels very familiar.
Yeah. Moar event stuff
Erin rI this
This was a sick one. Love seeing the event instead of just ranked.
NO QUESTIONS!!!
@@edgabrillo1909 Jace asks questions though.
Remember kids; next time you play against CGB he could be naked in the tub
for you, this was the day you lost to covertgoblue, for him, it was tuesday.
Seems like you been having more fun lately
This feels like a CGB oldschool video, love it! Bringing back the even money dance lol. I actually use ranked as a way to tune my homebrews to get them ready for events. :)
Same! 😊
Players rolling into Standard Event, match against CGB going "I came here to get away from this guy, FML"
the fact that you played a straight event and not just highlighted random wins makes the video and the deck so much better
Ahright, Aurelia showing why she's the Guildmaster of the Boros legion!
best comment.
"Fall in, soldier."
"I'm from Bant."
"Did I stutter?"
Even money dance!! I enjoy the intensity of Standard Challenges, its basically betting gems on whether your deck is good enough for profit
I feel like I recall a time when you said the even money dance was retired… glad to see that wasn’t permanent
Should've cast the Archangel of Wrath before the boros aggro dude scooped. It would bring the life total to 20 with the lifelink and dealt additional "your efforts were for nothing" emotional damage.
Why would people complain about Standard Events when we get the opportunity to possibly see CGB's even money dance? This deck looks great!
Man, I didn't realise until now, but I missed the standard event videos.
Been trying this deck now for since the video release and man…you had some dang good luck because this deck when I play, gets steam rolled by Boros and mono red every time. Feels too slow.
Love the vids but this is one deck I really do regret crafting.
Same brother. Got sold some real false goods from this video. Came back after a long hiatus from Standard, I love the Angels archetype so I was excited to craft it. Shame on me I guess for not understanding how much Standard has changed over the years - it's Modern power levels of cheap removal now. Makes decks that want to curve out fun mid-costed creatures just non-viable.
I just made this deck and omg... it does everything. Handles graveyard, control, aggro, burn, etc. thanks for shifting the meta.
Love to see you playing an event! Awesome stuff. Oh, and the deck is great too.
Absolutely crushing it with angels. That was super fun
That last game was awesome, I thought it was hopeless because I didn’t see the line like you did, great video.
Thanks for making this deck and immediately getting matched with convoke boros on the draw 15 times.
man CGB reading mono green card and is like "this is broken".
*20 secs later*
"And here we are beating mono green*
Love the deck. 27 lands seems a bit much though. I'm gonna try a second invasion and 26 lands. Angels have been my favorite creature type for 20 years and I'm glad to see them get actual tribal support these days. Thanks CGB for the list man.
my thoughts exactly, i'm just trying to justify the $110. it will cost me to craft this deck. Mmmmm i think im going for it.
“Oh no! I'm at 25!”
That really made me laugh!
This is my first time seeing your money dance, and it was well worth it. Please do more standard events like this. You were having a blast playing it more than the ranked ladder. Loved the deck! Have everything I need to build it, so here goes nothing. Thank you for an entertaining Friday afternoon!
i don't understand how the first 5 angels weren't instantly removed from the board, which has been my experience with creature decks
Fantastic build, I would love to see you playing more standard events to showcase how decks perform in these situations. Keep'em coming, CGB. Ciao Ciao!
I really like the standard events! Glad to see one coming back in today's video
04:49 bruh. I started yawning the exact moment cgb made that noise, got me freaking out a little, thought I was making the sound somehow lmaoo
How many of you were also yelling "Giada! Giada! Giada" in CGB's last turn of the last match? Great video.
When you said we were doing an event I was hyping myself up for the even money dance. It did not disappoint!
I love how CGB does his own thing. He’s a great content creator putting out stuff he feels is good and not being so controlled and triggered by the viewers. Such a boss. Highly intelligent and hilarious. Keep doin your thing CGB fa Eva!!!!
Thank you for the most epic bait and switch ever. :) I keep facing control decks doing this and getting wrecked. I'm sure the blue players running standard events are thanking you! Love the content, keep it up!
CGB, the combo of the sauce this angel deck has AND playing an event like this was the best thing I've seen all week
Great work. I'm a nerdo who likes it when my decks are full of "the good guys". Or the good gals, in this case
Thank you for doing a event! I've missed this! It gives us a wider view of matchups, and how the deck might fare in a variety of situations.
You know card makes this deck EVEN better, Roaming throne. There are so many cards that have double triggers is crazy
3 Warden of the Inner Sky.
"Shuffler's fine."
I am totally down for more Standard Event content! I love seeing the greater variety in opposing decklists, and the tension in seeing how far you go is very compelling.
Solid deck cgb, angels was the first deck that got me to mythic back when righteous valkyrie was still in standard so i have a special connection to this archetype.
Thanks for the video CGB. I started out many years ago on arena as a budget player, and thats how i found your channel originally so its good to see you return to the content
big fan of the standard event content, i rmemeber even money dance from back in the day, was super fun to see what sort of standard event decks youd run into instead of the matchmaker hitting with the awkward counter matches all the time
Oh man, the nostalgia. Love the standard events, new and old
The matchmaker either puts you against people with similar deck strengh, people in similar rank or people with a similar win streak.
This is why the last time I tried a historic event I went 0-3 against the same deck 3 times, that discovered huge trampling dinosaurs with haste on turn 3
The mirror matchup of this deck is FUN, I just had a 30min game of real back and forth with some sick top decks!! Vindicator became key. With two of them you can recycle your grave over and over.
Great looking deck. I knew Angels was a thing, but hadn't figured out how to build it. Well done.
Hearing even money dance made me realise i've been watching you for 5 years now is positively crazy! Always love your content CGB
I don't even call the current white-red decks "Boros" anymore because Boros wasn't simply this combination of two colors. There was lore theme (flaming angels and paladin-like soldiers) and also synergic mechanics about it. From now and then you have cards such as Aurelia being a white-red that could be part of the "spine" of your deck, but you don't have many other white-red cards that synergizes with her, or even among themselves. Just search for double colored white-red creatures in standard right now and compare it with how it was back when the sets were themed around the Ravnica guilds. There are few of them and you wouldn't put most of them together in a deck.
So yeah, this looks like a functional red-white deck... Boros? Yeah I miss Boros.
crazy..I thought you were going to notice before midnight, but I think you made the cut. That's why it's important to watch the gap when you're traveling there. There will always be what is, but not always what is to be.
I love the ode to Dashboard Confessionals CGB. Good video! I like the event videos!
oh my god, watching the videos during lockdown.... it's all coming back to me... I'm not THAT old, am I?
Reinforces my thoughts on ranked - I always stop at Platinum and durdle in standard play - 3 packs + both styles is enough effort. I'm going to look at events now though. Would love to see more of these videos.
Honestly the event has higher stakes than just more mythic laddering. And I like the commentary on the off-meta decks. If you want to bring back regular standard events I think we're here for it
Love Angels decks. Definitely giving this a try. Thanks CGB. It was also fun and tense watching you do the event!!
I love when you do the events we actually get to see other decks than mono red and boros
im one of those people who dont like it when someone promotes a deck that isn't in ranked, but i actually like seeing you progress through the event. as long as its not quickplay, because quickplay is full of questing and noobs so deck techs arent really proven through that mode.
"The air is getting to be a scary place"... a Sc-air-space if you will.
I've gone on an absolute TEAR with this deck, save a couple substitutions. The 4x Lightning Bolt and Lightning Helix have been super clutch to close out games
I decided to go play an event after this, and in 9 games, this boros angels deck I have never seen before showed up twice.
Big fan of the even money dance, and the events you have to play to get the chance to do the dance! Keep the events coming, in my opinion.
i think that first guy volotovich accidentally entered the event with his mono green questing deck lmao. i beat that guy in a phyrexia all will be one quick draft one time.
I absolutely despise the matchmaking algorithm... i think it should be 100% random if you aren't playing ranked and only rank based if it is Ranked. the forever mirror matches is so stupid.
That looked like a Mountain Dew Voltage - the superior flavor of Mountain Dew.
" NO QUESTIONS ! "
Glad to see an even money dance again after so long. Keep killing it in whatever format you play, CGB.
I love seeing CGB playing his favourite colours - monored and monowhite combined.
I love playing ANGELS!! I’m definitely building this on Arena and in paper. Thank you CGB! 👏🏼
Great deck. But not very good because it wasnt in ranked...
Jk. I love the standard events. I have missed seeing them. It makes the stakes feel higher. Plus i get to see new matchups because no algorithm.
Decided to buy the wild cards to try this deck. Went into standard event played mono red twice going second and then uw getting board wiped 3 turns in a row as i proceeded to draw my ninth land. Quick 0-3 gotta love it
I'm one of those people who could just watch CGB play UW control, best of one all day long. But I *really* enjoy the standard event videos. Even money dance, baby!
I love the return to the events. Been here since Throne of Eldraine. This is classic CGB.
Been concerned that sometimes I get a little too addicted to this game. But then I've never played in the bathtub which says something about both my addiction and your dedication! 🙂 Missed the Std Event option so thanks for that.
I love watching these events. Players tend to NOT scoop as often since they are more invested. Great deck would definitely like to see a Titan Of Industry Control deck featuring a Hullbreaker Horror 😊
Ah, that's why I saw this deck yesterday, it completely crushed me with Glada on turn two Archangel turn 3....quite busted
So much fun playing an event.
I have to admit it was my first time to see the break-even dance. I think I understand why dancing with the stars hasn't called yet. But maybe someday...
Very cool deck. Man does it power swing hard and out of nowhere. One second it looks like you're chump blocking just to live, the next second you have a winning board.
I love standard event videos and I hope you do them more! I actually don’t care much about ranked other than kinda knowing what the meta is
around 28 min mark I got to see the amazing even money dance, thought Id never see it again
I really enjoyed this standard event video. A very well received change to the standard ranked videos. I like to share the excitement. IMHO sprinkle some of these videos in from time to time 🙂
🎶Even $ dance, even $ dance, even $ dance dance dance!🎶
24:30 "Boros isn't even the best Boros deck!"
Very true v.v
I've been running your Angels+Atraxa list from the other day (I am a dirty typal aficionado), so glad to see you championing it again :)
I haven't had a mountain dew voltage in so long. But you know what? Hearing that can crack open made me want a sip of that sweet, sweet blue raspberry, caffeine, and ginseng packed death liquid
That 7th game was awesome. I love the clutch moments!
I played this a bit, I think one advantage it has is it has some good matchmaking bias, I can go from straight Domain ramp, BW control and boros switch to this and just play against meme decks. Might be personal bias but felt real!
Who doesn't love some diversity with one of their favorite content creators
personally I like watching people do the things I dont do but probably should do on arena, perhaps one day I'll train myself to just do it
I'm excited to see you play standard events. It is so worth it
Boros Angels seems to be a deck that comes around time and again, but I haven't seen it for an interval. It's a fun one. Definitely going to take this deck for a spin.
Hell yeah, back to standard events. I like seeing these
The glorious return of the even money dance! Also, yeah, I felt pretty sure there was some lifelink build in Standard that would just drop Boros tokens like a brick.
I watch every day, always hoping I see a deck that looks fun to build. Today is said day, spend all my wilds, I’m hyped - getting absolutely cooked in standard. Arena is cruel, this deck rocks and is fun
Ugh that final turn was so nice. This one is bugging me because while it's a little too... focused, I guess, to fit my style, and I don't have the wildcards anyway, I love both tribal decks and decks that use the meta colors and combos but don't do the same things, don't use the current staples, etc. I don't wanna make it but it does look like a lot of fun.
Sick deck I was thinking about going back to angels and that Vindicator is insane
Loving the return of standard events, you can farm gems and content at the same time!
Even money dance back on the menu boys! I remember it from lockdown CGB!
Funny story, I was playing Standard Ranked all the way down in Bronze tier just to get a free pack at the end of the month and using my total jank deck built around Phyrexian Awakening and Phyrexian Obliterator and Vindicator. I came up against this exact deck because they probably saw this video. But this Angel deck totally folds to Phyrexian Vindicator, it literally can't remove it and can't attack through it lol
Always love the standard event videos!
this unapologetic even- money-dance brought me more joy than I'd like to admit. Team Lockdown!
man one of my college friends that was a tremendous Angel fanboy would love this deck
Thanks for showing the event, I appreciate it.
Agreed, at this point in the release cycle this is more fun to watch than Mythic, especially since we can still see the main decks in the meta and how they match up with this deck.
