Hey CGB, apologies if you're already aware of this, but Dev at Strictly Better MTG just gave you a massive shout out and urged his viewers to subscribe to you to get you to 100k.
@@fulltimehustlin3663 haha i'm guilty af. I find some of my favorite decks that way, though. CGB makes me try different decks I never would have just looking at top8 lists.
Seeing you say you wanted to keep the game going, and then winning later - was really cool. That's an attitude I never could cultivate. 🤣 Level headed as always, another fun watch.
I like card design that encourages people to play one-ofs in their deck, like Legion Angel, introducing more variety in gameplay. I feel like that was what they were going for with the Legendary type, but it didn't seem to work - people still just play 4 of any strong legendary and sometimes just take the punish.
Retreat is fun, but comparing it to one of the most broken red cards in recent history is a bit much. Retreat isn't even as good as the cards it mimics because they were lands.
After the bans, mill is rampant. This deck is now #1 for me, it's been working very well. Maybe revisit some more Yorian decks, seems good in this new climate.
Aaaah alliances. Was the best set ever (back in the day) still, my favorite alliances card is still force off will. Counter with no mana required. 😍😇🍺👍💪
5:04 go to 0.25 speed and go really slowly. As he says "glimpse of freedom" a picture of a card comes up. This has been in 3 other videos of his Ive seen. Why is this?
CGB. I would love to see something that uses Yorion + Ashaya to do some crazy landfall nonsense - with all the creatures getting bounced and returning as lands.
The picture is the 'couldn't find card art' image, I'd say it's getting displayed by default in the split second before the game has loaded the correct art.
It's just so funny to me that WoC made every companion nigh unplayable except for CGB's. Yorion never gets old! We the people demand more Yorion! Just start calling Yorion CGB from now on.
Why i have to turn down my volume by 50%... I didn't listen to any words because it trigged me... #distortion. Love you anyways. Good content every day. #ifyoyarehungrydonteatthemickappa
Felidar Retreat's +1/+1 ability is overperforming for me. I added a Crawling Barrens and it has won me several games. I've had some bad matchups with mono red. This deck needs something to replace Propaganda and Warmth for that matchup, but I know we are a long ways since the days of those cards.
Hi, I’ve been seeing you post this a lot, and I’m curious about the build you would go for. Do you have a deck list, or a video? If possible, I’d like to learn more about the idea behind it.
So... the idea of the deck is to just bonk a guy with a really big creature? Plenty of simpler, cheaper and less mana heavy ways to do that. Doesn't sound like a very interesting deck. You're better off just playing Faerie Vandal + Staggering Insight.
Am I going insane or do most of the streamer's have a random blinking error that flashes occasionally for just a second? Seen it here, seen it with MTG Jeff, probably other streams...
"this deck can generate a million cats" *plays mostly counterspells the whole video* I CAME HERE FOR CATS GODDAMN IT! THE INTERNET IS FOR PORN AND CAT VIDEOS!!
I don't think I've ever used it to gain life. I know it's an option but there are so many cheaper ways to gain life in white that it seems a shame to waste it that way. I guess I could see it coming in handy in a pinch though.
No Name yeah, I get that, but when you’re in a game against mono red and you’re already low health and the opponent has burn, I’d call that a pinch. If nothing else, Jeep it to destroy ember cleave.
There is very little to get back from the last stage of ecd in that entire deck since it is based around making counters for the most part and it would tap him out when he is playing a counter strategy which is bad. Giant killer and the one yorion if it has hit the board and died and the one angel is about it for what he can get back with the third stage.
Hey CGB, apologies if you're already aware of this, but Dev at Strictly Better MTG just gave you a massive shout out and urged his viewers to subscribe to you to get you to 100k.
CGB: Puts together a really neat control deck that's fun to watch
Me: WHERE IS OMINOUS SEAS
So, I'm going to be playing against kittens for the next 24 hours? Cool.
good to know what to expect! You're not lying
No kidding. I love CGB's videos but man do the net decker copycats come out in full force the day after lol
So I'm not the only one who notices

"that was mono red, now they're mono dead" 😎
Retreat is White's Fires of Invention. This build is amazing. Legion Angel is a great addition, it has been performing better than I thought it would.
Retreat is fun, but comparing it to one of the most broken red cards in recent history is a bit much. Retreat isn't even as good as the cards it mimics because they were lands.
felidar retreat is in my top 3 favorites so thank you

I love your videos! Your work is appreciated!
Glad you like them!
my respect for cgb skyrocketed as i knew he was a pink floyd fan
He's almost 40, he has good taste in music
Josh Gersten I’m not sure what him being almost 40 would have to do with his music taste. Is he really almost 40? He looks 32-34 max
Pretty sure he said he's 32 in a recent stream.
I love these control decks!
Counterpost.....now that's a name I haven't heard in a long time, stranger....
Aaaah alliances. Was the best set ever (back in the day) still, my favorite alliances card is still force off will. Counter with no mana required. 😍😇🍺👍💪

Funny
Just a bug everyone had in this time..
Isn't 44:30 a misplay? You could crack Fabled Passage, making a 4th creature, then Takedown the Torbrann, eating the Phoenix in the process
But you lose Yorian to pump. So, dealer's choice.
@@thedarkemissary Do you mean the Castle Embereth? That takes 4 mana, Donny only has 3. Also it gives only +1/+0, which would still not kill Yorion
@@thedarkemissary Oh, Phoenix pump, that's what I missed. Your point stands
cool kids club, reporting for duty :)
You are cool.
Big mistake 44:30 Block phoenix, crack fabaled passage , make a cat ,play takedown on torbran , or am i mistaken ?
You'd lose the Yorian to pump. Choice of priorities.
@@thedarkemissary The caslte only pump for one and with out tobran thats 4 damage against 5 toughness and no hand cards
@@saintosorglos2213 Phoenix can pump itself.
@@thedarkemissary i see thanks
Mono red feels like an entire tier worse after rotation. Not that I have faced enough to really say for sure with the advent of Omnath and rogues.
It lost light up the stage and Dodger which was huge
Loved it CGB
couldnt think work with a splash of green to allow bigger plays with retreat for timed explosion plays?
CGB. I would love to see something that uses Yorion + Ashaya to do some crazy landfall nonsense - with all the creatures getting bounced and returning as lands.
Yorian only blinks nonlands, so that combo would do nothing.
@@thedarkemissary you play yorion, blink everything then you play ashaya,requires alot of mana but doable in this standard :D
@@FlopGaze If you're at 10 mana playing a landfall deck, you've either already won or your deck doesn't do anything.
@@thedarkemissary yea I meant it mostly as a joke, sometimes doing some "do nothing" gandalf stuff is fun though
Magic entertainment. Good stuff.
What about adding Whirlwind Denial for adventure decks?
Hey CGB. Please play a Mono Red Aggro deck for Halloween, and just constantly sing "This is Mono Red, we play Mono Red".
Sees kittens, immediately subscribes.
Mill decks get so damn lucky! I’m always one turn from ending them.... mill decks and cycle decks I hate even more than mono red
Just play yorion as your companion and run 80 cards. That seems to be the only way nowadays. Lol
NGL seri g this pop up is great because I’ve been thinking about tacking this in my UW Control.
What is this sea gate/gadwick deck you refer to????
I really dislike legion angel. In bo1 it feels like you have to put it in any white deck but its basically 4 rare wildcards for 1 card
its a really cool design space but its basically the white version of fae of wishes
@@alexmaragh7766 not even in bizarro world
UW Control is an auto like. My best Zendikar stats are still with the Gadwick control deck
Oh, by the way. Witch one's pink?
Thanks for the vid.
Thanks for watching!
Great video 👍 maybe more lands like u said, drop interventions and angels for realm cloaked giants...maybe...hard to say. Good deck man.
5:03 ok everbody, you can see a red picture here, right? Arena Illuminati
Yup happens to me too
this happens to me often, usually when im on the deckbuilder interface
The picture is the 'couldn't find card art' image, I'd say it's getting displayed by default in the split second before the game has loaded the correct art.
I put Felidar in my Doom deck and never looked back...it turns my flood into a wincon
Not sure why you keep bottoming/discarding Heliod's Intervention vs. mono-red. That almost cost you one of your games.
It's just so funny to me that WoC made every companion nigh unplayable except for CGB's. Yorion never gets old! We the people demand more Yorion! Just start calling Yorion CGB from now on.
commenting for the cool kids club
You are cool.
18 counterspells... yeap thanks a lot CGB, meta need that.
Well that is in an 80 card deck for the Yorion so that is like playing 13 or so in a 60.
This looks like fun.
if it’s UW control i am interested
is ECD just done?
I guess if you're not playing creatures ch. 3 is a bit pointless
Why no Sea gate restoration? I can't being myself to leave it out of my decks anymore if they have blue lol.
I know I said I didnt like the bandana, but I feel like you have lost your soul without it...
Unban the Bandana!
Wait......How can you counter Bonecrusher's damage adventure? I thought it can't be countered.
It has to resolve to deal damage. It can be countered easily.
"Damage" can't be countered. But the "spell" itself can be countered.
Huh......I'll have to remember that. lol
Fifth
CGB beating up the playground bullies( MonoRed) is fun to watch.
Love CGB
Why i have to turn down my volume by 50%... I didn't listen to any words because it trigged me... #distortion.
Love you anyways. Good content every day. #ifyoyarehungrydonteatthemickappa
I know the rate is bad, but I kinda wish there was one Animal Sanctuary in the deck.
Fun gameplay.
The algorithm is strong...for the #coolkids

Another 1 hour video? I dont even mind the 20 ads anymore!
Jesse Eisenberg CGB is so much fun hahaha. 1.5x speed.
I love any deck that just says no repeatedly.
What’s a pirates favorite Magic card?? Felidarrrrrrrrrrrr
"Felidar" isn't a card.
Make an Green White Kittens Deck ???
that was fun
Are you and desolatormagic brothers???
Does anyone else see a bow on the left cat instead of horns?
I like it
I never know what to craft
Craft what you need to make a fun deck you enjoy playing.
You usually want to craft lands first
A new Azorius deck to try, yes please!
"...now they monodead" :D
DAY 98/750 OF ASKING CGB TO PLAY A DECK AROUND DREAM TRAWLER MAGIC MIRROR AND THE TEFERI DRAW MORE ENCHANTMENT. THESE LETTERS ARE ANGRY.

@@noardon1 I tried doing something like this, seeing your post previously. But it's too mana intensive imo

What do you mean by free?
Jeskai control deck when?
Its funny that he says that mono red is crap. (its my opinion as well) But counters are also crap. (In my opinion)
Make a Selesnya cat deck!
more!
Am I going insane or do most of the streamer's have a random blinking error that flashes occasionally for just a second? Seen it here, seen it with MTG Jeff, probably other streams...
I keep seeing it during arena play too. It looks like an exclamation mark in a red triangle but it flashes so fast I can't be sure.
That was Mono Red. Now they Mono Dead.
"this deck can generate a million cats"
*plays mostly counterspells the whole video*
I CAME HERE FOR CATS GODDAMN IT!
THE INTERNET IS FOR PORN AND CAT VIDEOS!!
hate those "win by scoop" type of plays, but hey it's part of the game................
5:04
Found Fblthp.
Yes I’m not playing magic for the next couple days 🙈everyone copies your decks I don’t wanna sit there and get counter for the next two hours🙈
Why do you keep getting rid of Heliod’s Intervention against mono red? You did it in two different games. That’s needed life gain.
I don't think I've ever used it to gain life. I know it's an option but there are so many cheaper ways to gain life in white that it seems a shame to waste it that way. I guess I could see it coming in handy in a pinch though.
No Name yeah, I get that, but when you’re in a game against mono red and you’re already low health and the opponent has burn, I’d call that a pinch. If nothing else, Jeep it to destroy ember cleave.
Is it just me, or is CGB's voice frying at the top range during the intro?
Clipping a bit yeah
Comment for the algorithm :)
100% hate playing against this deck haha
fun
Yessss mono red losing..it is all going according plan. Mwwwuuuuuhhhaaahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!
Algorythmcomment :-)
CKC!
You are cool.
CGB: here's a deck with no creatures and almost all spells. Playing against monored (twice).
Also CGB: Never hard casts the typhoon
If you wanna surprise control Players, just tell them you can win games by dealing damage.
Yay kitties lol
Am I the only one who felt weird that he didn't include any ECD?
There is very little to get back from the last stage of ecd in that entire deck since it is based around making counters for the most part and it would tap him out when he is playing a counter strategy which is bad. Giant killer and the one yorion if it has hit the board and died and the one angel is about it for what he can get back with the third stage.
I miss the ultimate cat: Cauldron Familiar xD
there's probably a game were triggers are still resolving even now XD
Comment for the algorythm.
its your fault i had to face this on mtga BO1 lol m7y white aggro won though!
Post some brawl videos please
I love your deck building CGB but this one has too many counter spells for me.
Ok
9 ads... holy shit bro
This deck is far from free to play, im a little disappointed. Still a great deck cgb!
Wrong channel if you want F2P stuff.
@@styfen I know. Just saying the titel is misleading.
Made a cat deck.. it sucked
I heard kittens and there's not actually a bunch of cat cards, just a card that makes cat tokens. I am disappoint.
