What the deck does: It is Storm. I.E., when he casts a spell that has storm, it gets copied for each spell cast before it that turn. On turn 3 with his ramp spells and lotuses, he had a lot of mana and storm count. He then cast Minds Desire, which makes him shuffle his deck, then reveal the top card - and he can play it for free. (With storm - 9 storm count = 9 copies on the stack). He eventually got Grapeshot and Electrolyze x2, which allowed him to deal lethal damage. Please upvote :)
Wow, nice. He played the Mind's Desire, which means you basically shuffle and reveal the top card of the deck - and it has storm (it copies itself for each card played before it that turn). He played 9 spells, then Mind's Desire, causing it to trigger 8 times (i.e, minds desire and 8 copies.); once all the copies resolved, he bounced the original.
The Deck combos with Minds desire (exiles top card and u can play it free per spell played this turn) and a bunch of mana pool adding spells (makes it so he could play many spells in one turn) with scry like draw to find answers Like grapeshot for 15
@JonathonInjection He's playing TEPS; you don't need many lands. You need to cast your rituals and lotus blooms, then you have lots of mana and a high storm count to kill your opponent with a single card
He could have upped the storm count by playing more of the spells from minds desire (for free) and had mana left (as well as the lotus bloom) so he could have easily dealt 20 damage if necessary then also.
darn it. i was keeping track of the game with the little card titles in the bottom, but for some reason they stopped for a short while and then i was completely confused, lol. why did his opponent start placing cards from his library on the table? couldn't figure out which card had this effect ... and also couldn't really work out what the win condition was. oh well. i might watch it again and see if i can make out the cards from the grubby pixelated video.
@daryldeveyra He probably just cut it again out of habit, but he also offered Watanabe to shuffle it again, though Watanabe refused. It was probably an illegal thing to do, but since Watanabe didn't protest and call the judge, no fuzz was made of it.
What's crazy is not 1 but both players would be removed from the MTG HOF for cheating. 1 for game manipulation and the other for marked cards. And no, Saito should not be allowed to cut his own deck after opponent shuffling.
Watanabe had two copies of Electrolyze. Deals 2 damage divided as you choose among any number of target creatures and/or players and draws you a card. That accounts for the final points of damage.
All the other guy had to do was play all the other cards off of the mind's desire to get a large enough storm count to negate the effects of the jitte.
@novamatrix It's not a pro play, it's the correct play. Putting a card back into your hand to reuse it is simple; the only difference here is that the card was buried under many copies. There is no such thing as a "pro play", there is only the correct play, the innovative play, the weak play, and the wrong play

TEPS is The Extended Perfect Storm. The name comes from the vintage scene which has a deck called tps (the perfect storm obviously =P).
As soon as he suspended two Lotus Petal I said to myself, "Guess the other guy dies in three turns."
He managed to do 11 damage with a grapeshot, as well as the two elctrolyzes he pulled from the top, which each did 2 damage, for a total of 15
omg all the people who don't know what desire is. scourge rare, it's the pinnacle of storm.
Sweet video edit. Well done Ume-Nao

I would love to play Mind's desire in Spiral Tide legacy but it's just my peasant deck
@marcusngtzekiat
Grapeshot for over 16 damage (with all the remaining spells to play, the storm count would go to at least 15).
Storm Decks are sooooooooooooooooooooooo Rigggggggggged!!! one turn is like the entire match!
I'm confused. After fetching, why did Saito cut his deck again after Watanabe had already shuffled it? Is that legal?
I wish they made those red zone mats available to buy and not just on the tour. Those things are awesome.
He could have upped the storm count by playing more of the spells from minds desire (for free) and had mana left (as well as the lotus bloom) so he could have easily dealt 20 damage if necessary then also.
amazon if you still looking for it
STORMY AND YOU KNOW IT
@wohoo5150
You can go off without lotus.
you have 4 lotus, and 16 other add mana to your pool cards. then desire
Some form of commentary would have made this a lot easier to understand.

Man I wish Desire was Legacy legal. That card is so fun.
@exp1jhon he used the lotus bloom to add 3 mana, then he played a lot of card, mind's desire has storm
@TimEddyHughes Turn 4!! In his first turn he exiles the lotuses. Then 3 turns later they come into play ;)
That was intense as hell.
which format was this?
+Matteo Cappellaccio
this Extended.
0:02~
I've watched this about 30 times because I'm trying to create Yuuya's deck :P
When you got it, tell me.

@exp1jhon storm ability happend making that grapeshot hitting 11 damage
It looked like a cascade effect to me.
@s3ph7r0th then he played grapeshot, which has storm, so he won the match
Anyone know if you can get the play mat they play on in this video?

i'm kind of new at the game, this isn't standard type II right? could anybody tell me what type are they playing?
how many cards are they playing with?
@novamatrix I think thats not pro play, its the reason why the card is in the deck...
at 1:45 did Saito cut his own deck in the end?
All the other guy had to do was play all the other cards off of the mind's desire to get a large enough storm count to negate the effects of the jitte.
@exp1jhon he gained like 15 mana casted a minds desire and grapeshotted the other dude 11 times

What happened was, he had shit loads of mana and storm count too high, any brain freeze, grapeshot, etc. would kill his opponent.
where do i buy that mat??
it would have been a lot better in english :(
why does he have a stomping ground
I don't understand... saitou had jitte so he could remove 2 counters to gain 4 life and stay alive... the game wasn't finished.
@JonathonInjection psh that's WAY too mainstream. These guys prefer to keep it underground :p
GG.
I made the Hall Of Fame but than I took an arrow to the knee...
cant find exact table, link?
@braun3812 Played it at saitos end step
Saito shouldve played wild nacatl instead of tarmogoyf the turn he did.
wow wtf ? can someone explain wat happened here??
Oh and he does fetch for a Grapeshot, the opponent scoops at that time.
Would have been so funny if he suddenly realized he'd done something wrong and got 10 manaburn...
is it me or is more than half the game shuffling the deck
@PoketoMtg i'm a Yu-Gi-Oh player and it takes me 4 months to reply to a comment.
@wohoo5150
Its very consistent.
and they thought storm is a fun mechanic :D
@luchador1764 I bought them because of this Vid, 8 Euro... not cheap at all XD
his turn was fucking 5 minutes,holy fuck.
yeah wtf did the guy on the left do, all he was doing in the end was draw cards and play them for free and won?
and that children is why seething song is banned
Poor zoo cant do enough vs storm
2 elektrolyse omg
grapeshot FTWTF
why do i see shocks
what a hell? watanabe wins? O.o
