    I feel like the simic choosing a defensive maze runner in the form of vorel, was them saying like "Ah whatever, If we win, we win, if we don't we don't"

    I second this! The mythology and fiction behind the worlds is a huge part of game for me personally. The novellas are great, but PLZ bring back the books!

    My favorite turn with a Dimir deck: Turn 1, island and dropped Dream Twist. Opponent milled three, third card was Jace, the Mind Sculptor.

    Every time I see Doug Beyer he’s always so snazzily dressed. Brilliant!

    Ral Zarek + Magosi, the Waterveil + Inexorable Tide = Infinite Turns.

    Selesnya Charm is probably the coolest removal I've played with in awhile.

    Interesting video... I'm planning to make a guild-themed EDH, but I'm torn between Simic, Izzet and Dimir. Mirko Vosk is hot, Izzet is plain fun and Simic is interesting in it's views on life. Vorel is probably my favourite out of them all, seeing as I revere life and evolution myself. When will we know the conclusion of the mazehunt?

    03:48 "before I knew anything about the upcoming movie" he says. It goes tilt in my mind. I stop the video. Start google. Start looking for a MTG movie. I don't find it. Damnit! Why can't I find it? After 30 minutes of search, I go back to watching this, and come to understand he talks about "Les Miserables"... Awwww. Give me a Magic movie, Please!

    Has there been any discussion on how long the guild runners will be running the maze? Is there an actual winner?

  • @Desparatum
    @Desparatum 11 років тому +2

    What frustrates me the most about MTG in the last few sets is that it's pretty clear from flavor text that there's this well fleshed out story going on, but they've stopped writing the novels and they only post little teasers like this to hint at the story going on. Don't make a story then hide it away!

    So you're saying: "I can't believe they catered to people who like to play differently to me"? - Good one.

  • @PercipientFish
    @PercipientFish 11 років тому

    He's really right about Slesnya just wanting to 'do its thing.' Selesnya doesn't even know what removal or control is.

  • @Xenomorph1112
    @Xenomorph1112 11 років тому +1

    The answer is in "The Secretist: Part 3", I'll spoil it for you, JACE WINS THE MAZE (through some mental link bs) AND BECOMES THE LIVING EMBODIMENT OF THE GUILDPACT.
    I shit you not....

  • @shadowmasteraiden

    Look up "The Secretist". Buy it. The better is does the more likely WOTC is to start putting out more story material.

  • @louiscostanzo5595
    @louiscostanzo5595 11 років тому +4

    I think there's good reason not to say who's the best, because there is no best, its a point that everybody has got a guild and you decide what's the best guild by your skill inbetween and your fellow players, like if I got the best deck that's guild based and its grule grules the best, if I'm the best and I'm playing golgari that's the best, it goes by you and your friends decks

    • @seth121297
      @seth121297 11 років тому +6

      In the novel, no one won, the whole point of the maze was for the guilds to unite or perish under the divine veredict of Azor founder of Azorius. Jace became the head of the council of guilds for he prevented the champions from killing eacj other at the Maze's end

  • @Xenomorph1112
    @Xenomorph1112 11 років тому

    Dimir got crap rares but the best fuse cards and mill.that can be absolutely bonkers.
    Besides, Rakdos needs some love, too... especially with most of our shit getting outplayed by Golgari...

    • @cybersearcher1041
      @cybersearcher1041 5 років тому

      Dimir mill can be pretty brutal now with Pneumonic Betrayal and Wight of Precinct 6. I’ve beaten at least 3 of my friends with mill or just beating them to death with massive Wights.

    Buy The Secretist. The better that does, the more likely WOTC is to do novels again.

  • @Xenomorph1112
    @Xenomorph1112 11 років тому

    Please don't let Doug write anything, anymore. Lazav had no real goal (Szadek is rolling in his grave), Ral had no reason for wanting to kill Jace (though I'm not against it), Emmara, more often than not, was the traditional damsel in distress, and that ending... that ending was just... was he rushed? Couldn't he have thought of ANYTHING that sounded less like bad fan-fiction? The Old Ravnica story was brilliant, and you cared about the characters, but sadly... this Return just fell short

    Don't buy it, and if you do, buy the first two then make up your own ending. Here's a hint, Jace plays a big damn role in Ravnica now...

  • @Xenomorph1112
    @Xenomorph1112 11 років тому

    Trust me, don't waste your $6, even if they were on paper. Jace becomes the Guildpact with controlling power over the Guilds of Ravnica. All in all, the next Return to Ravnica will have us seeing Jace carved into tiny pieces within the depths of Rix Maadi.

    "Emmara Tandris is . . ."
    Mark, just stop. Don't try to act like you had any flavor consideration when you 'designed' Emmara Tandris. We already know you just last-minute switched VoR and Emmara, so the runner that was most important for Dragon's Maze flavor, considering The Secretist and all, ended up being the largest flavor fail of all.
    Well, it's a good thing you're cutting costs by eliminating your creative director position, because . . . why bother? You don't care about flavor anyway.
