I have been watching you for a while but never bother to comment. I just wanted to let you know that I appreciate your content and commentary. You are my favorite magic youtuber by far
By far the best i cannot stand listening or watching anyone else after watching LVD. He's like the professor of magic, the kind you like to pay attention to.
Agreed. The highly analytical style of commentary is really beneficial to a game like mtg. Even his stream recordings play almost like a dedicated youtube video. The beef I have with most of the other mtg youtubers is that they just regurgitate their livestreams without any real editing for the new platform. Keep up the great work LVD, I really enjoyed this vid even though I think that Haktos is a card that should never have been printed.
@@Kumagoro42 It didn't sound like Will's voice to me, nor did it have Will's distinctive Scottish accent. I think it must have been Dovin reacting belatedly to taking 3 from the Clarion. Or being turned into a dragon. :)
@@slavecek The accent definitely slipped (it doesn't sound like Dovin either anyway), but it's a "death" line, leaving the battlefield always triggers one (and while "insight" could apply to Dovin, it does to Will too, he's always talking about strategizing in his lines). There was not an event related to Dovin, delayed or otherwise, since Sarkhan's transformation doesn't trigger lines, nor does getting hit by Clarion, since it doesn't cause loss of loyalty.
I've gotta say, I love pretty much 90% of the decks you make but this one is my favorite so far. The way Haktos synergizes so goddamn well with Resurgence, ECD and all the other planeswalkers is mindblowing. Made a few changes to make into a Best of 3 deck (Dovin/Tibalt/Saheeli into the sideboard + Angraths/Nahiris/Samuts in the main) and I'm having a blast with it. Thank you so much for making these.
Haktos superfriends, nice! I made a brawl deck with Haktos a little while back. One card that I came across that surprised me was Bolt Bend. With that one Haktos is safe even from targeted removal that he happens to lack protection against!
Oh I love this deck a lot! Finally an alternate for red :) Went from G1 to D2 with that. Thanks for the content and guys, just drop a like on this its insane.
Hey, Legend! First of all, it's a very interesting deck. Second thing, you shouldn't have left Torbran alive - if opponent had Embercleave next turn, you'd be dead (and that's what happened). The optimal thing was to ECD him while you could. What I've learned in last couple of weeks is that you should always assume your monored opponent has Embercleave in his hand and act based on that.
Max is right. Just Arcanist+Infuriate+Embercleave, even without Torbran, without other attackers dealing damage, and even if Haktos could block, would have been lethal
Ok, not only is this a really fun deck but it seems to Rank rather well against the horde of RDW and Control, at least so far in BO1 it's doing well for me. Love it man, awesome stuff :)
Nice Games, in match 4 if you killed the torbran you would have been at 2 life since embercleave would have cost 3 + infuriate. Forcing the opponent to topdeck 2 dmg since the following turn response and giant could have dealt with the current attackers. but its extremely hard to play around embercleave damage without clarion in hand
Hey I was just wondering what happened to Wacky Wednesdays? It was my favourite series and I got to see some decks I didn't even know existed. While I do enjoy your other videos too they just don't really scratch that itch.
Makes me hopeful for a fun game, but it's just 99% embercleave turn 2 win decks or counter-everything-you-do-into-dreamtrawler decks in this game atm. unfun is an understatement. Thanks for your videos though, hope they remove some of the sets soon to make it playable again.

Facts
29:01 Dovin's reaction at being turned into a dragon is priceless.
It's actually Will reacting to leaving the battlefield.

"causing neck pain since 2018" good one legend!
You are the best MTGA content creator in my opinion. Keep up the excellent decks and videos!
"Hm I don't know if I have time to watch this, let's just glance at the list" was extremely wishful thinking... This is peak silliness, I love it!
Legen “on to the next one” VD
Fine opening hand
Lets see how da deck does.
Our opponent explodes
This is fine
Haktos superfriends, nice!
I made a brawl deck with Haktos a little while back. One card that I came across that surprised me was Bolt Bend. With that one Haktos is safe even from targeted removal that he happens to lack protection against!
Seems like a nice inclusion. Although can't often afford to wait until turn five to play Haktos.
Nice, 5 am and LegenVd is shooting out new decks! here goes my sleep
Taxes can wait. I wanted to see LVD play Haktos and I was not disappointed.
Oh I love this deck a lot! Finally an alternate for red :) Went from G1 to D2 with that. Thanks for the content and guys, just drop a like on this its insane.
I’m loving these Boros decks, making my favorite colors proud 😢
Very nice deck again LVD

Yeah not killing Torbran was probably too risky.
Man, what a satisfying thing to see Haktos go unblockable after Ressurgence. This is some great deck building.
ive had a difficult time building around haktos, very nice job!
I really loved how Dovin completely shut down the Phoenix deck. That deck has so much value. Nice to see a counter to it.
Ok, not only is this a really fun deck but it seems to Rank rather well against the horde of RDW and Control, at least so far in BO1 it's doing well for me.
Love it man, awesome stuff :)
This deck looks like much fun
Wow. This looks really good
This deck looks super nice and efficient, actually.
I love the feel of this deck, and I generally wasn't a fan of War of the Spark. Well done.
I really want to include haktos in a boros commander deck as one of the finishers.
Love the build! All those PWs :)
I saw the title and immediately assumed this would be a hero of the nyxborn haktos deck
sweet deck
the guild forum multi colour land works really well with hacktos as it gets a +1 counter with color fixing
Haktos laying the smacktos
I'd really like to see you play this one some more.
I second that
That first game is money :D
My only problem with this video is that it is too damn short (for my liking anyway) :D
Tibalt, my favorite. 😈
Enemy plays one creature
Legendvd: ok I think it's time to wipe
Well this is going in my boros hero of precinct one deck 👀 all of this
Nice Games, in match 4 if you killed the torbran you would have been at 2 life since embercleave would have cost 3 + infuriate. Forcing the opponent to topdeck 2 dmg since the following turn response and giant could have dealt with the current attackers. but its extremely hard to play around embercleave damage without clarion in hand
This is the maximum jank ever!
Great gameplay as always LegenVD! do you play mtg on paper as well?
I sure do, although don't have the time to play paper as much as I would like.
nice deck
The S iss sstrong in thiss one(s)
Holy cow.
that mike guy inspired me to comment cause i always read them but never post
Hey I was just wondering what happened to Wacky Wednesdays? It was my favourite series and I got to see some decks I didn't even know existed. While I do enjoy your other videos too they just don't really scratch that itch.
The weekly series were disbanded a while back. I still make whacky decks, just not under that same name.
Question; does having 0 cost creature (i.e a land elemental creature) exclude it from the protection?
Nope he is protected from every CMC (including 0) besides the rolled number
Castiel x that’s amazing
Liam Wilgar yeah I’m now trying to restrain myself from spending all my wildcards on this deck LOL
Comment for the algorytm :)
Woot!
Could the first opponent have played domris ambush and killed hakthos with it? Can druid tap for RG with a leyline in play?
gathering2 yeah druid can tap for RG with leyline, and yeah ambush would have killed hakdos
Important to note is that Ambush also only works when targeting a 2-drop.
gonna have to watch this latwr, my track meet ran wayyy over
what
10:13 why didn't you use dovin to lock the rankle, seems like a waste of a sweeper against golgari especially.
I had the same thought
Could have been reasonable, was just a little concerned with Questing Beast.
Embercleave on Haktos?
Doesn't work
Fun
Is his first opponent using Mono Black Magic's turn 2 Niv combo deck? Pretty sure I recognise those cards
That is almost exactly what it is, I believe.
Hmmm should be fun.
Makes me hopeful for a fun game, but it's just 99% embercleave turn 2 win decks or counter-everything-you-do-into-dreamtrawler decks in this game atm. unfun is an understatement. Thanks for your videos though, hope they remove some of the sets soon to make it playable again.
Are you telling me there's a chance Haktos is playable? :)
Goodbye wildcards
First!

Do you need to watch a Magic Karp video to know you are looking for Magic Karps? I think not!
