Turns out getting additional 8 more copies of affinity cards actually makes the deck kind of pop off! If you guys have any decks you want to see comment below and I'll see what I can cook up.
I love the concept of this deck as much as I love your videos - still playing your Omnitell you presented couple of weeks back but will give this a try too
You should really play disruptor flute instead of pithing needle. Imagine holding up 2 mana and the opponent casts necropotence. You can flash in flute and lock them out of the game
This deck needs Urza's Saga like I need weed. Works without it, but feels like trying to move six tons of bricks 30 feet. Patchwork turn 1 feels awesome though.
Took me about half the video to realise that the whole deck as is is legal in hostoric as well XD prbl way better there bc bowmasters doesn't really exist there anymore
Hey, do you think this deck is strong enough to compete against the current metagame? I have a few wildcards and I always liked affinity, but idk if this is worth crafting right now or if we should wait for more support cards like thoughtcast and urza's saga. At least since affinity is not popular right now, no one is running artifact hate, and this could help.
@@Takobyte I have been experimenting with some different equipements, but the best way to get infinite triggers seems to be Bladehold War-Whip, wich reduces equipment cost by 1 and gives you a 2/2 with double strike for 3. The only downside is that you need to make the deck 4 colors since you want stoneforge mystic for the consistency. Equipments i have tried pairing with this is Bone saw and lavaspur boots.
Great list - I can't fully remember even though I watched the whole video - did you even imprint something into the Labyrinth once? I was kind of thinking that Treasure Vault might be a better card to run - Now, granted that has the very real downside of being an artifact but not being indestructible but also the upside regarding 12 Affinity for Artifacts cards in the deck as well as making Cannoneer just a smidge better. I think it's worth a thought at the very least, esspecially with the opponent probably usually having bigger targets for their artifact removal than a random land. One card you may have overlooked is "Tamiyo meets the Story Circle" - the second mode of the Saga can be very crazy with all the Affinity for Artifacts cards as well as Kappa Cannoneer in your deck. I was also experimenting with Candy Trail over Springleaf Drum in my list, though I didn't play green for Beanstalk and found them to be surprisingly effective. In your particular list Drum is probably still the better choice, though.
@@Takobyte Fair enough, I guess the draw 3 is worse into Bowmasters as well. Also would be great to see you play an updated Yawgmoth list with new mh3 cards!
@jamesowens74 the draw 3 isn't really the problem but the cost of it being the same as simulacrum can be kind of awkward as times. But ya, yawg with grist seems sick!
@@Takobyte im just curious if there's a background to it, like an inside lore or a custom. it sounds like "welc-uel-come" and not welcome twice so i was wondering

blood really playing a full historic deck in timeless
😂
and it still wins
🤓 Haywire Mite actually grants an extra 1 life for the alchemy version, so it's even slightly better in there 🤓
It's affinity it will stomp anyhow
I was just gonna say that 😂😂
Up the beanstalk was such a great idea for the deck, I havent thought about it!

Kicked my butt the second match and i was even playing your deck HaHa GGs!
honestly i had an amazing start and great top decks as well. 😅

oh wow you sold me on that lol
That sounds mean. I love it.
I splashed green for up the bean stalk and it take the slot of the one ring in my list. So freaking good.
Can you make a video affinity in historic? maybe in best of 1 to farm events?

Timeless the most powerfull format in mtg soon? im here for it!
i think vintage is a bit more powerful

I see kappa as a Tank but Id add graffidiger's cage to prevent op casting cards from graveyard
With scam being a thing, do you think hammer time is still a viable archetype, and if so, what new cards would you consider adding?
new ajani seems good in hammer
Hello Tako! Really cool list.
Have you looked at Nadu anything ? i think it can be pretty busted even without the 0 cost equip cards.
No I have not. What kind of equipment would you even play with Nadu I wonder.

Omg this deck needs galvanic blast so much 😢 the concept is awesome

To Affinity and Tako!
Just curious as to why are u running beanstalk over unsealing?
2 mana is less than 3 mana and has ETB

Can name boseiju with needle. Some free wins if you do this. Sweet deck though. Ty for vid
Good call!
Make the new beanstalk control!
SOON TM
Is Emry good in affinity decks?
probably. but should be a diff build and less affinity cards and more focused on kappa
The biggest problem with today's media is that you only upload once a day
Why not just build this in historic, basically the same deck except it actually has a chance to be a top deck?
Unironically might be weaker in historic because of wizard being tier 0
hey no hate but why do you stutter when you say welcome?
hey no hate, but all I did was say welcome twice
@@Takobyte im just curious if there's a background to it, like an inside lore or a custom. it sounds like "welc-uel-come" and not welcome twice so i was wondering
Long time lover of Tak's stuff. Definitely enjoy the intro and the music. Waaaay better sounding than Kermit the Seth of Goldfish fame.
@@TheRipcurrent agreed, it definitely does a good job ringing in my attention without being grating on my ears lol
i think new blue sage from MH3 is way better than up the beanstalk, i mean tamiyo´s
It did impress me when my opponent had kappa in hand, but without, it seemed like it ran out of gas too fast.
Yeah it looked so good in the video yesterday because he had it. Every. Time. 😅
