In regards to FoW, to quote a great man: "This deck isn't about beating their *things*. This is the deck that asks the opponent 'do you have it?' And if they don't, they're dead."
First game against dredge was a turn 2 goldfish. Play the enchantment, stack the deck with frenzy on second down and 1 cards you don’t want on top of it, if opponent dosn’t interact pay upkeep, draw for turn, brainstorm, hold priority, crack led x2 for red, brainstorm resolve, put 2 back keep the frency, cast frency, combo win.
@@davideakin3372 what would he have done the next turn thought. The current ANT list runs two past in flames so if they had it he was just dead. Also I am not saying that it was an incorrect choice I am just saying that it is something that does not happen often.
19:00 mins in you missed the line you had: Mill your frenzy. Hit a mana source then sac both LEDS and codex shredder the frenzy to your hand. Cast frenzy and hope for the run goods.
@@MTGGoldfish Yea, it was something I wish you had access to against the 2 blue decks. I think the deck has potential and it was really fun to watch. G1 against Show n Tell was crazy. Great video and Merry Christmas Seth!
I don't play Legacy enough so I don't know how the meta has been, but I found myself thinking that Tormod's Crypt might be better than Silence in the sideboard. Either as a split between Silence and Crypt 2/2 or something like that. Crypt has the free spell value with frenzy, and it would be pretty useful for the dreaded Dredge matchup. There's also some good value against Lands, Reanimator, and certain Delver archetypes. Maybe this is just the Captain Hindsight in me looking back though.
In that final game, I think the correct line is T6 lead on Silence followed by Frenzy, hoping for a blind hit. They would need 2 counters to get through it and if it resolved, Noxious Revival would've been the top card and I think you could go off from there.
M1 G2, why not play the helm of awakening with the lotus petals so you could replay the ghoulcaller's bell when they're bounced instead of recasting them every time?
@@hydra66 With that much mana on the Storm side, Helm doesn't do anything to speed them up. The deck doesn't need much mana to combo off. If they're casting spells, they're winning that turn regardless. Helm was the correct play there, for sure.
You should have a Regrowth in sideboard I think so you can Burning Wish for it and then Regrowth a Frenzy or Tutor to your hand from milling, like you did in match 1 game 2. Also just a good card to wish for when comboing. Also should have some ritual in the sideboard like Seething SOng.
Hey Seth, can we revisit this deck with some of the new cards to come out recently? Most notably, Bolas' Citadel and Scheming Symmetry? I'm not entirely sure if Citadel has a spot in the deck, but Symmetry is basically Vampiric Tutor in this deck
Why wouldn't you play helm around 32:00 ? You could tap opal and sac petal for it leaving the land for tutoring up frenzy with the bonus of helm in play with a still active opal (itself+helm+led = metalcraft) at the tradeoff of a petal being in the yard (which in itself could be useful using Noxious on it mid frenzy if really needed). The only card that gets helped by helm's ability in dredge would be Serenity but not all of them run it and there's potential to race it still.
First game against dredge.. I think the right play would have been play the Knowledge turn 1. If there is a Frenzy in the top 10 you can stack it second from the top, next turn, use tundra to pay upkeep, draw random card, use mox to play brainstorm, in response sac both LEDs and play the frenzy with 2 mana floating AND the next 8 cards already stacked... (only gets foiled by a turn 1 therapy naming brainstorm)
19:13 Seems like the correct play would be to Brainstorm, Put back Accumulated Knowledge and Pixis. (Draw AK first) Opponent doesn't know what we're on so they wont name Experimental Frenzy. On your turn tap tundra and mox opal to pay for Accumulated knowledge. Rearange top of deck so you can go off this turn. Announce your casting Experimental Frenzy, to pay the cost you sac both LEDs for Red and Blue. Keep one red one blue in mana pool (assuming you need those colors, you just stacked your deck and go off.) You can even play a land!
This deck will be one of the best decks in Leagacy with the new lavania coming out because you can play her before you play frenzy and then she dotches the counters and she is good against other decks too so play these as a 4 of in the sideboard and the Deck will be much much better.
Pact of Negation would actually work and Force could even be done though it'd be pretty sketch with LED being such a key player. You can't look at the second card down while casting the top card. But you can look at the top card while your own spell is on the stack, then counter your own spell. Defense grid seems like a no brainer though, even if you're running Pact and Force, you're never gonna have as many counters as your opponent and the Defense grid would just give you a winning exchange.
@@foxyr4bbit Your mana is too shitty to reliably cast and Frenzy and have a Tithe. With Grid you can deploy it on turn 3 and Frenzy in turn four. FWIW, I think the list wants no brainstorm and 3/4 Ancient Tomb to function more optimally.
Really cool shell, any thought on a 1 of lantern of insight to tutor up as a backup plan? Also seems like burning wish leaves you cold to counters when you don't need to be
Seth i love you but tendrils doesnt have to play around force of will because storm is off of cast trigger. Unless you were afraid of flusterstorm, thoughtsieze wasnt super necessary. Then again i have no idea what im doing
Because he is the faster deck while dredge is very resilient. Bringing in a card that could disrupt the frenzy, or make you take a turn off of winning, for ineffective interaction is just bad. Echo is for chalice, counterbalance, trinesphere and maybe thalia.
Based on the comments it seems like I should have. I was thinking our main plan was to just race (and thankfully it did work out), but maybe bouncing Zombies offers enough value to make Echoing Truth worthwhile.
@@robspear03 turn 1 or 2 drop you whole hand, start your frenzy, you hit outcome from frenzy, you scoop everything up including the frenzy, draw a million cards, drop everything again triggering altar of the brood(s) milling you opponent. Still needs work but it can go off pretty quickly. Has the same problem with Force of Will. Lion's Eye is restricted in Vintage but you do get moxes.
He probably swapped out Grapeshot because the deck never seems to have problems casting the Tendrils when its going off and Warrens and Bridge are slightly better creature answers than Grapeshot.
Oops! Yeah, there was a late update from the person that submitted the deck that included putting four Silence in the sideboard over Grapeshot, Abrupt Decay and two lands. Apparently it didn't make it onto the overlay.
M2G1 I think you had to Brainstorm back Frenzy under a Knowledge. Therapy would fail, and on your turn you cast Knowledge and double LED in response pitching Pixis. Cast Frenzy and hope you can go off.
Why not Pact of negation? Probably the only deck in all of Legacy that it's a better option than Force. You can look at the top card of your deck at all times, so you can even look while a spell is on the stack and Pact your own Spell when you're going off. And in horrible situations you can even pay for the Pact with LED, if you didn't manage to win immediately after forcing your Frenzy through.
@@MTGGoldfish While not ideal, it shouldn't completely fizzle the combo unless it's the top card of your library when you cast Frenzy 1. Play Frenzy 2. Cast spells off the top 3. Hold priority after every spell is on the stack, while holding priority, check your top card, if it is Pact, then quickly use it to counter the spell currently on the stack Awkward, but should usually work.
@@MTGGoldfish Not while your own spell is on the stack. Like I said. Pact your own spell you doof. Defense Grid is also an option that someone else suggested.
I'm afraid that Seth found something he enjoys more than Panharmonicon decks...And this man LOVES his Panharmonicon decks.
What about a Panharmonic Frenzy deck?
I agree Seth should make a panharmonifrenzy deck.
@@DonovanPresents I'm on it. Be back in a few.
Frenzy is the new material for his jank bank
M1G2 was, without a doubt, the DUMBEST game of Legacy I have EVER seen. In a good way.
I still can't believe that worked.
@Nixon Cooper oh wow! That seems TOTALLY LEGIT
Wtf was that second game against storm
Weird flex(ibility) but okay.
Lantern Control in Legacy Kappa
Legacy Gameplay at it’s finest
Helm sitting in hand for so long... why
Best game ever. Someone count how many Seth giggles

You're a wizard, 'Arry!
Was looking for this comment as I thought the same
No idea why he played a mill card without frenzy like that was going to do anything. Can't mill them out if they can clock you.
Seth: ok opponent can you win at instant speed?
Opponent: [flashes out somehow laboratory maniac]
Seth: ........
man if top was still legal this deck could do anything
Crystal Ball
Having used frenzy in edh, can confirm that both of these, along with paradox engine are all incredibly broken with it.
@@knytetech7732 to be fair, paradox engine is broken with almost anything
Noxious Revival + LED with Frenzy in play is siiiiiick
It's like alt-casting Gush without needing Islands in play!
So Pot of greed?
It seems lately you have been on a frenzy frenzy
If I had money I would definitely play this deck. It looks like so much fun.
Not sure why, but "No lotus petal for you!" made me loose my shit. 😂
Thanks for playing this one, was a lot of fun to watch!
This deck should be called "Cheerios with coffee".
Breakfast cheerios
What about Frosties, because it's way sweeter and put kids into a frenzy
Millennial breakfast
Definately Cheerios with coffee, read flavor text of experimental frenzy.
Balanced breakfast
"You never know, that's why you play the games"
WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO SETH?!
Seth you are a mad man. Milling out ANT is usually suicide. That has to be a first for legacy.
Nope. I've been playing chroma mill for years and I've killed many ant decks with it.
@@drakeconsumerofsoulsandche5761 Darn. I guess that makes sense. I did not even know that there was even a mill deck in legacy.
@@brettgibson1014 not competetively there isn't. It's basically a budget magic deck.
He was presenting a silence the entire game, he could’ve just silenced with a Past In Flames on the stack if need be
@@davideakin3372 what would he have done the next turn thought. The current ANT list runs two past in flames so if they had it he was just dead. Also I am not saying that it was an incorrect choice I am just saying that it is something that does not happen often.
In match 2, game 3, you could have Noxious Revival for Enlightened Tutor after milling it, held priority then cracked Flooded Strand in response.
Dang, that first match game 2
This makes me very curious about Lim duls vault with frenzy. Could be bonkers
9:08 "alright so go down brainstorms" and my heart sank
"Crack lotus blossom, play ghoulcallers bell, crack lotus play ghoulcallers bell"
Is not a series of words I figured I would ever hear
This literally, and I mean LITERALLY, the perfect deck. Thank you forever
19:00 mins in you missed the line you had: Mill your frenzy. Hit a mana source then sac both LEDS and codex shredder the frenzy to your hand. Cast frenzy and hope for the run goods.
Best Legacy deck ever!!! I laughed my ass off in that game 2! 😂
This deck needs defense grid, can even tutor for it G1.
Agreed. It seems better than silence. It also hurts less to flip mid combo once you have helm out.
Yeah, seems like the best answer to the Force of Will problem.
@@MTGGoldfish Yea, it was something I wish you had access to against the 2 blue decks. I think the deck has potential and it was really fun to watch. G1 against Show n Tell was crazy. Great video and Merry Christmas Seth!

If you're playing crypt, you might as well play either grafdiggers cage or relic of progenitus
@@drakeconsumerofsoulsandche5761 True, I was just thinking of the CMC. With Helm though 1 CMC is pretty easy to go with though.
Fun games Seth, I think you should consider Defence Grid in the sb. Considering how badly you fold to FoW and other counters.
In that final game, I think the correct line is T6 lead on Silence followed by Frenzy, hoping for a blind hit. They would need 2 counters to get through it and if it resolved, Noxious Revival would've been the top card and I think you could go off from there.
wait no I'm dumb, you couldn't cast the frenzy without cracking LED. plus you'd be down both wishes. There was no correct line, you were just dead.
M1 G2, why not play the helm of awakening with the lotus petals so you could replay the ghoulcaller's bell when they're bounced instead of recasting them every time?
helm also affects opponents spells. if you aren't winning there and then, it's not great if opponent's playing storm
@@hydra66 With that much mana on the Storm side, Helm doesn't do anything to speed them up. The deck doesn't need much mana to combo off. If they're casting spells, they're winning that turn regardless. Helm was the correct play there, for sure.
Remember when we got occasional legacy content on the channel? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
Xantid Swarm might be a sideboard option.
I used to run in it Belcher (rip Probe), and it won me MANY games.
You should have a Regrowth in sideboard I think so you can Burning Wish for it and then Regrowth a Frenzy or Tutor to your hand from milling, like you did in match 1 game 2. Also just a good card to wish for when comboing. Also should have some ritual in the sideboard like Seething SOng.
What punishes taking Tendrils once burning wish is resolving at 48:20 ?
Merry Christmas Seth!
Hey Seth, can we revisit this deck with some of the new cards to come out recently? Most notably, Bolas' Citadel and Scheming Symmetry? I'm not entirely sure if Citadel has a spot in the deck, but Symmetry is basically Vampiric Tutor in this deck
The hot new legacy deck, Lanternless Lantern.
Why wouldn't you play helm around 32:00 ? You could tap opal and sac petal for it leaving the land for tutoring up frenzy with the bonus of helm in play with a still active opal (itself+helm+led = metalcraft) at the tradeoff of a petal being in the yard (which in itself could be useful using Noxious on it mid frenzy if really needed).

6:04
The Lantern win had me dying 😂
man at 50:00 i thought you might have sided out burning wish or something weird, so you did have the win after going through everything :D
19:50 you had possible out: eot exile Frenzy with Pyxis, on your turn crack both LEDs to activate second ability of Pyxis.
One of the best Against the Odds of all time
@39:06
Seth I'm sorry but if there's any janking out happening in this match I'm pretty sure it's not gonna be by the opponent
This is the deck I never knew I wanted to build, I love it. Now I just need to find the money to build it.
Maybe if I could just win the lottery...
First game against dredge.. I think the right play would have been play the Knowledge turn 1.

Announce your casting Experimental Frenzy, to pay the cost you sac both LEDs for Red and Blue. Keep one red one blue in mana pool (assuming you need those colors, you just stacked your deck and go off.) You can even play a land!
You can't activate LED while casting a spell. Putting back the known card might have made sense though.

I remember the unbanning of the Portal set bringing Personal Tutor to Cheeri0s. I'd love to see how far the archetype has come.
You can also burning wish for thoughtseizes in a pinch
Can’t play Force of Will or any counters for obvious reasons but what about Defense Grid?
You probably want three in the sideboard yeah.
Pact of Negation would actually work and Force could even be done though it'd be pretty sketch with LED being such a key player.

Was thinking that you could mill opponent if they are playing blue and run surgical extractions to get rid of their counters
20:34 you could've boarded in echoing truths, as that can scour the board of zombie tokens
I don’t remember this deck during IDT; i thought the Fishbowl Thursday list was an Infinite Scepter combo
Seth is in luvvvveeeee with a card... and the winner is Experimental Frenzy
I'm now wondering what madness Frenzy can bring to Vintage :)
Yeahhhh and here we go! Going to frenzy!
Turn 1) plateu enlightened tutor targeting experimental frenzy.
Turn 2) lotus petal, noxious revival lotus petal, lotus petal, rite of flame, experimental frenzy.
The card on top was an LED so you would have won a turn earlier.
Mill mill mill mill exile, ggwp
Opponent: casts thoughtseize and takes frenzy then surgically extracts it
Me: Oh shitttt
LOL that match 1 😂 😂 😂 😂
I was smilling so much when the last 5 cards were being milled in match 1 game 2 xD
Seeing Seth not bring in the echoing truths to just board wipe the tokens against dredge was painful
I bet this deck loves seeing Chalice

one Echoing Truth needs to be Void Snare as a wish target (leyline/RIP/Gris/etc)
That second game was sic (!)
Against Dredge when they have a bunch of Zombie Tokens from Bridge From Below, side-in Echoing Truth to buy a few turns
I can't help but feel like Legacy is a violent and brutal format. A dramatic way of saying it, but good lord.
UW control is actually topless miracles
Oh my god this might be a real deck. Like HOLY GEEEEEZZZZZZ
For M2, G2 and G3, why not side in echoing truths? Bouncing zombie tokens, Narcamebas, or any of the other creatures sounds pretty decent.

@@MTGGoldfish not really. They make zombies at such a rate that bouncing them does very little.
It doesn't. You just get stomped.
You talk about how Force of Will is so back-breaking, but you did win a game where they drew like 21 cards with Griselbrand and cast double Force.
If they had saved those Forces for Wishes, they had been.
cant this deck play some lanterns of insight or mishars bobles? those milling artifacts could have a vetter use while you are setting up the combo
More Experimental Frenzying? Yay!
I think pyroblast would be a reasonable way to solve the force issue as well
Pyroblast seems great since we can also cast it on something (even if it does nothing) so it won't fizzle the frenzy.

Hmm, well, I am doing Vintage Super League in a few weeks. Maybe I'll give it a shot.

Probably the only deck in all of Legacy that it's a better option than Force.
You can look at the top card of your deck at all times, so you can even look while a spell is on the stack and Pact your own Spell when you're going off.
And in horrible situations you can even pay for the Pact with LED, if you didn't manage to win immediately after forcing your Frenzy through.
Pact fizzles the frenzy :(
@@MTGGoldfish While not ideal, it shouldn't completely fizzle the combo unless it's the top card of your library when you cast Frenzy
