Everytime Seth makes a Jund joke I always think back to the time I played Budget Abzan Rites against Jund in a modern match at our store. He had his deck all blinged out w expeditions and I beat him with siege rhinos.. I still think about that guy sometimes
Hey Seth, great deck as always! A little criticism though- the editing is getting a little crazy in my opinion lol idk if others agree but while I understand cutting the video down makes sense, cutting you off mid-words is just a bit much. Just my 2 cents, and mean well by my comment.
I would've cut a castle and a haven for 2 basic snow swamps. Haven is great but only as your 4th or later land, in an aggressive deck you need to play turn 1-3 and a tap land and a colourless land is a mull but 2 basic would be a keep.
Holy shit i already built this deck xD Well mostly. I was like scrolling youtube, saw the thumbnail went, that's familiar, clicked it. And i was like holy shit, SMUGGLERS COPTER. Like i had everything else, But i just blanked on the copter, that's perfect!!! Thank you.
I wonder if Icehide Golem is good enough for here. Been thinking about the card a lot. How often is that 2 toughness a boon? Also, you can cast it off of faceless haven mana.
Every card in the maindeck is legal in Pioneer except for smuggler's copter. Maybe there's something there 🤔 Edit: Every card in the 75 except copter is legal in pioneer
Question, other than Smuggler's Copter & the 1 Go for the Throat in SB, everything else in this deck is Pioneer Legal. Any thoughts on if there is anything that could replace the Copters to make this Pioneer Legal?
when I see this list I really want to add unearth and Spawn of mayhem as 2 of each. and maybe knights of ebon legion, but i do think egon give mono B some real legs.
I haven't played Modern in a while, so maybe it's just me, but: Are the Gruul and Izzet deck that Seth faced here representative of the meta right now ? They both seemed very shaky to me.
Went to a modern tournament. Did 0-4 Game 1 - BR Prowess - 0-2 was really really close each time. Opponent had less than 5 lifes Game 2 - Amulet Titan - 0-2 Not even close. It's a bad matchup. I had 2 Ashiok Dreamrender from the sideboard but did not draw it. Game 3 - Burn - 1-2 Really close. The Gifted Aetherborn is really good against those decks. Game 4 - Tron 1-2 Really close. The two game he won, he was at 1 life. I think Tron is a good matchup for our deck.
31:50 i know you still won, but wasn't duress a better play? in case they had the spatial contortion and used it on the visitor, then you recast it from the graveyard discarding Egon and attach it on the bloodsoaked champion for lethal
so why exactly was the game over match one game one? Unless he has another giant or lightningbolt you kill his elder with a double block. if he choses the life on attack you are in an ok spot if he chooses the 3/3 are in an Ok spot and unless the draw was insane you are in an ok spot, sure not a winning one but not a loosing one either.
Match 1 game 1 scoop was so goddamn early. You had 8 draws that deal with Gargaroth fairly well in combat and don't die to a stomp(regisaur and aetherborn), could have hung back and double blocked with visitors if they swung out and didn't have cleave/stomp/some trick to kill blockers.
I played against this deck the other day and I was playing a orzhov midrange list and this deck always had gas and if they didn’t stomp you down it just ground you out with small recursive threats
Yeah that was my immediate thought too. I think Go for the Throat in the sideboard is the only non-pioneer legal card in the deck. Edit: Scratch that, Smuggler's copter.
@@DEG99Y hmmm, I forgot about copter. But I think it could be replaced by Rankle in pioneer. And instead of go for the throat u could use bloodchief's.
@mtggoldfish Seth I was just recently asking myself the question of, "is rotting regisuar + demonic embrace modern playable in a post uro world" I created a rakdos midrange deck based on this idea and would love to have you play it. Please let me know if you are interested.
Any time folks bitch and moan about others’ flaws whilst putting theirs on display (creator’s), it bothers me. Do you not see how easy it is to err? Now imagine how silly you look after screwing up such a minor thing that you had no one watching you do and infinite time. No one plays perfectly myself and you included.
correct me if I'm wrong but at 9:30 if after you activated faceless haven, if you used it to crew the copter you would win the game, wright??
No you are correct, if he had crewed the copter the opponent wouldn't have been able to chump block and gone to 0 that turn
He realized he could do it the turn after, but didn't catch that he missed it the turn before.
“Millstone. It’s been...twenty...five years I think since this was a playable card.” Lol
Gutterbones is not a Zombie, you could have played it in game 2 to crew the copter.
Everytime Seth makes a Jund joke I always think back to the time I played Budget Abzan Rites against Jund in a modern match at our store. He had his deck all blinged out w expeditions and I beat him with siege rhinos.. I still think about that guy sometimes
That deck was a blast, i wish seth do a update on that!
was it a love at the first sight? oh wait-
This comment made my day. :D
I wonder if this could be tweaked into a Historic list, add in some Mire Tritons, Knight of the Ebon Legions, Thoughtseizes.
I can see it happening
Was thinking about pioneer myself. Everything but copter is legal there
I literally thought it was historic for a minute.
In pioneer you've got stitcher supplier, best one drop to fill the graveyard ;)
@@ReiTuG supplier is in historic too...
Ah finally some pioneer content. Wait, is that smugglers copter? Ah, guess this is modern
I really don't like faceless haven in mono black. There's too many game where it screws you over.
What about Mutavault instead?
@@Turn2Ugin too expensive, suckers are like 10 bucks. If you want to exceed budget, yeah mutavault is better, but keeping it under $100 is tough
you can have 3-4 colorless lands in a mono-color deck with it being minimally impactful
Crazy idea: What about the black desert? It taps for black if you're desperate, and it's a mainboard answer to an Auriok Champion.
Playing almost a Pioneer deck in Modern, absolute mad man.
PS: The pure joy and glee of beating Tron is downright contagious.
13:40 little tip Seth, Gutterbones isn't a zombie.
Seth I'm really interested: how many times has keeping a 1 land hand failed you and how many times has it paid off?
This man really brought a historic deck into modern 😂😂
*pioneer deck
I don't know if seth would have beat jund in that last game, they ran pretty well. But rattlebones isn't zombie coulda used that for smugglers copter.
Sideboard question: Why use Soul-Guide Lantern? Especially in mono-black, I would think Nihil Spellbomb is the gold standard
Its probably out of the budget
@@benjaminsouthworth5698 nah, it's a 30 cent card
@@JaxonUm then I have no idea
Only reason I can think of is the etb exile
I would assume because of budget but I don't know price of nihil spellbomb

It's hard to watch Seth belittling Jund while playing in such a sloppy manner
I would've cut a castle and a haven for 2 basic snow swamps. Haven is great but only as your 4th or later land, in an aggressive deck you need to play turn 1-3 and a tap land and a colourless land is a mull but 2 basic would be a keep.
Personally think the editing was a bit too fast in this one. Cut off Seth and the plays sometimes.
Someone's salty when losing to Jund.
Match 1, game 3, why not crew the copter on the previous turn?
yeah that'd have just won it then and there, right
Sometimes I hate watching gameplay of stuff like this because there are such obvious plays that the streamer just flat out misses and it hurts
@@airenrain thats seth for u lmao. Its like every video
Some adtions that can improve the deck maitining de budget would be pain seer in the asylom visitors's place.. it's a great crit to crew.
Holy shit i already built this deck xD
Well mostly.
I was like scrolling youtube, saw the thumbnail went, that's familiar, clicked it.
And i was like holy shit, SMUGGLERS COPTER.
Like i had everything else,
But i just blanked on the copter, that's perfect!!!
Thank you.
back in ma day we called this kind of deck suicide black, i guess the name was not so friendly
I thought suicide black was an early version of a deaths shadow deck
You should have gone full-fatties and ran Dead of Winter. You could manage your land drops so you don't blow up your own 6-toughness dudes.
I wonder if Icehide Golem is good enough for here. Been thinking about the card a lot. How often is that 2 toughness a boon? Also, you can cast it off of faceless haven mana.
Every card in the maindeck is legal in Pioneer except for smuggler's copter. Maybe there's something there 🤔
Edit:
Every card in the 75 except copter is legal in pioneer
Seth makes fun of jund, procedes to lose to jund
It's good to see that Jund can occasionally squeak out a victory against a deck that costs about 10% as much as Jund.
@@cedricappleby2006 I just find it funny that this keeps happening to Seth everytime he makes fun of jund
Seth has entered the chat
Jund has entered the chat
Seth has left the chat
I'm waiting for the best "combo". Tegrid and deathcloud.
Question, other than Smuggler's Copter & the 1 Go for the Throat in SB, everything else in this deck is Pioneer Legal.
Any thoughts on if there is anything that could replace the Copters to make this Pioneer Legal?
Spawn of mayhem?
09:30 Crew the copter with the faceless haven, missed lethal
when I see this list I really want to add unearth and Spawn of mayhem as 2 of each. and maybe knights of ebon legion, but i do think egon give mono B some real legs.
That double Gargaroth game was beautiful.
Isn't this practically a pioneer deck? Like isn't smugglers copter the only one not there
No intro?
Sadly not :c This video was meant to be up last week but technical difficulties meant I didn't get to make the intro :(((
@@sushiske Excellent work on the other intros, I've been really enjoying them! 😄
@@sushiske it's cool,loved your other ones and keep up the good work
This is fun! I know it's budget, but egon reaaaallly wants to eat fetch lands
I haven't played Modern in a while, so maybe it's just me, but: Are the Gruul and Izzet deck that Seth faced here representative of the meta right now ? They both seemed very shaky to me.
Is this worth building in Dec 2021 for use as a beginners modern / pioneer deck? Just switching the copter out for something when playing pioneer?
Went to a modern tournament. Did 0-4
Game 1 - BR Prowess - 0-2 was really really close each time. Opponent had less than 5 lifes
Game 2 - Amulet Titan - 0-2 Not even close. It's a bad matchup. I had 2 Ashiok Dreamrender from the sideboard but did not draw it.
Game 3 - Burn - 1-2 Really close. The Gifted Aetherborn is really good against those decks.
Game 4 - Tron 1-2 Really close. The two game he won, he was at 1 life. I think Tron is a good matchup for our deck.
versus Infect 0-2
versus Affinity 2-1
versus Mardu Stoneforge Mystic 1-2
versus Lantern 0-2
Match 3 instead of fatal push why not just raid back another one drop? They couldn't counter the ability anyways...
31:50 i know you still won, but wasn't duress a better play? in case they had the spatial contortion and used it on the visitor, then you recast it from the graveyard discarding Egon and attach it on the bloodsoaked champion for lethal

The self push at 27:10 was a great line!
Hi, Seth. Can you play the *non-budget* version of this deck? That would be cool
Was this supposed to be a pioneer deck?
This is pioneer
Great video but not gonna lie I enjoyed you losing to jund after giving it shit. Lol
how come this is not a pioneer deck?
#copter
Anyone else feel like Seth took that loss from Jund kinda hard?
Nice decklist :-D But... Where are Dark Confidant and Toughtseize in the maindeck?
They would destroy the budget
My favorite UA-camr to watch on 2x speed
Match 1 game 1 scoop was so goddamn early. You had 8 draws that deal with Gargaroth fairly well in combat and don't die to a stomp(regisaur and aetherborn), could have hung back and double blocked with visitors if they swung out and didn't have cleave/stomp/some trick to kill blockers.
Isn't this deck pretty much Pioneer/Historic playable?
Except the copters its a pioneer deck
Always like a budget mono black beatdown deck.
I played against this deck the other day and I was playing a orzhov midrange list and this deck always had gas and if they didn’t stomp you down it just ground you out with small recursive threats
Just play it in pioneer, it's basically the same list
12:10 starts the commentary gold
jeez, that last game... if i was allowed to stack my deck in any order i wanted, that would have been the exact sequence of cards to topdeck lol
idk how much urborg costs but it can slightly help the mana work while not having to go down on faceless havens
Why are you playing a pioneer deck in modern? 🤔
I mean, there isn't a single modern only card in there , right?
Just the copters
It's modern but on hard mode
only recently me and my friends were talking about why auriok champion spiked
Add green and ghalta and boom stompy town
this deck is almost pioneer legal!
why'd we scoop at the end of match 2?
Whats *evil live* backwards?
how would a pioneer version of egon stompy would be?
Exactly the same main deck except the copters
And this week we are without meme-intro :c. Why? (
I cannot hear the name Egon without thinking of the Olsenbanden movies.
Wait... no editor's meme?
"I got so unlucky that I won" -Seth Match 3 Game 1
man seth is damn unlucky
Punt at 9:27
Should have just crewed the Copter with the land.
Sett should buy a lottery ticket one of these days... just wanna see his luck
I like that the whole list is pioneer legal as well
But wait! That one Go for the Throat in the sideboard! Oh noes.
and copter is banned right now
Im so early I get to say hi to Seth!
Thank god Damping Sphere is a card :D
Who is joffrey?
Is this deck legal in pioneer?
The mainboard is! I havent looked at the sideboard too hard
Actually Copter's not legal :(
That's still pretty close
@@erelfink8822 definitely!
No sweet intro 😢
Video was still sweet though!
why not play this deck in pioneer?
Yeah that was my immediate thought too. I think Go for the Throat in the sideboard is the only non-pioneer legal card in the deck.
Edit: Scratch that, Smuggler's copter.
@@DEG99Y hmmm, I forgot about copter. But I think it could be replaced by Rankle in pioneer. And instead of go for the throat u could use bloodchief's.
@@pedros4253 nah you replace it eliminate. and smuggler can be rankle or scrapheap scrounger or stitcher supplier.
12:10 🖕😂
Couldn't this just be a Pioneer deck? What cards aren't legal there? 🤔
The copters
@@gururaven ooh, didn't notice those... Thanks
Non-budget version!! 😍
No meme intro?
Sadly not :c This video was meant to be up last week but technical difficulties meant I didn't get to make the intro :(((
@@sushiske nobody is blaming you :CCCCC im just glad we got the video
Is this deck just portable to pioneer?
Except the copters, yes
Editing
this is pretty much a Pioneer legal deck minus Copter and Go for the Throat.
@mtggoldfish Seth I was just recently asking myself the question of, "is rotting regisuar + demonic embrace modern playable in a post uro world" I created a rakdos midrange deck based on this idea and would love to have you play it. Please let me know if you are interested.
I'm a simple man. I hear Seth talk trash about Jund, I hit Like.
Trying to be constructive, but like i said in other recent videos from mtggoldfish, recent editing will soon make me stop watching your videos.
Cuts are cutting the end of sentences, and even sometime skipping whole plays.
But you can always piece together what happened. I don’t know, I’d rather this than every video pushing two hours long
every single time i actually watch any content creators video, they just horribly misplay and that tilts the shit out of me
Right. It makes things so hard to watch
I’m sure you never misplay. Go make content yourself if it’s so upsetting 😂
@@Cornelius135 whats a misplay. Never done her
Any time folks bitch and moan about others’ flaws whilst putting theirs on display (creator’s), it bothers me. Do you not see how easy it is to err? Now imagine how silly you look after screwing up such a minor thing that you had no one watching you do and infinite time. No one plays perfectly myself and you included.
The absolute refusal to play out a bad looking game is such a turn off
REGI!!!!
