- Bryant Cook goes 🏆 UNDEFEATED 🏆 with The EPIC Storm in a Legacy League on Magic: The Gathering Online! These matches were played on: 05/22/24
The EPIC Storm (TES) is typically a four-color Legacy Format Storm Combo deck that aims to win the game using the Storm mechanic. The cards with this ability are usually: Tendrils of Agony, Grapeshot, Empty the Warrens, and Aeve, Progenitor Ooze.
How we create enough spells is the interesting part! More often than not, it's Beseech the Mirror, Gaea's Will, Song of Creation, Echo of Eons, Galvanic Relay, and even Peer into the Abyss. The tricky part is getting these spells to resolve, so we use powerful protection spells such as Veil of Summer as well as Thoughtseize to make sure that these Storm spells hit the stack.
TES can usually be defined by the traditional core of Dark Ritual, Chrome Mox, and then Burning Wish.
In today's video, we're playing Approach of the Second Sun to beat Veil of Summer, The One Ring, and Flare of Fortitude from the upcoming set Modern Horizons 3 (MTG MH3).

When I saw approach of the second sun I was expecting it to be a donation deck or something but after the deck tech it actually makes sense!
Glad you liked it!
Great run! I like your analysis of cutting grapeshot Bryant!
Glad to hear it
I don’t know if I’ve ever seen you as excited as this round 1 win. This rules
Approach of the Second Storm 💯
☀️
Love watching you play TES. You make it look so effortless! Top shelf content 👌
I appreciate the kind words
Approach of the Second Sun is such a fun card. Really surprised to see it in Legacy. Keep up the good work.
Thanks! ☀️
I remember playing approach of the second sun in standard, and in that format it was a very potent win condition in difficult board states. It has always been a card that plays better than it reads. Once you have a significant amount of mana and the ability to go 7 cards deep, it becomes one of the best win cons.
I had success with Grapeshot answering creatures back in the Rite of Flames days. Rite of Flames makes that plan much stronger so cutting Rite makes cutting Grapeshot make sense in favor of a different alternate win con
Agree on both points
Another very interesting video, thanks Bryant !
I remember several month ago when I watched Tony streaming with this, I meaned "man, what the hell" until I understand that was not a crazy idea at all )
Love this kind of creativity 🙂
🔥🔥🔥🔥
13:00 I was giggling as well haha very sweet win
With every video you upload of you playing TES, you're making me love Galvanic Relay more and more
Niiiiiice!!!! Love that first win sooooo much 😄😄😄
Ya love to hear it
every time your ad that says "youre still watching..." comes it makes me think of the end of Ferris Bueller: "You're still here?"
Its me judging you for watching this channel 😅
ohh this is awesome!! love your videos!
Ya love to hear it
Say the list and the 5:0 a few days ago on goldfish and i knew its gonna be a sweet video.
Right now i think the second sun is a good move to have something nice and reliable vs. those veils.
Seeing forces in the SB is still a pretty crazy sight to behold. With the 2 boseju i would consider playing a chain lightning instead of a chain of vapor or perhaps a deathmark. Really depends on the sideboard-plan.
On a sidenote EtW is looking increasingly like doing nothing in that SB slot.
approach is one of my favorite cards, so happy to see it in legacy!
☀️
Round 1 had me so stoked. Can't wait to see how this tech develops!
☀
That LED was only just ok there game 2 😂
This is what I LIVE for!!
☀️☀️☀️☀️
Great league!
Ayyy approach of the second sun!
Praise the Sun! We believe!
☀️
You’re an animal. Round 1 was super sweet
☀️☀️☀️☀️
IT'S FINALLY HAPPENING AGAIN. I was on it until BSS turned into a much better and different version. I can't wait until OBM gets banned so we can go back to it in BSS! LOVE IT!
Approach was good, I could see it sticking ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Cave-in is my favorite answer to most hatebears (or Rift Bolt to get through Archon of Emeria).
the red count just isnt high enough
I don't believe that Flare of Fortitude is anywhere close to Mindbreak Trap, since it can't be played on T0 and not even reliably on T1, but I'm always excited for some Approach of the Second Sun action!
Who knows, but this is something I've been considering and wanted to try it. Flare of Fortitude is also good in almost every matchup unlike Mindbreak Tap.
it can be played turn 0 with solitude
true!
@@Il_Dilettantetrue, I guess we'll see how reliable it is
at 23:43, i know you didnt see the line, but the lion's eye diamond was a really great draw
On the subject of what you're killing with Grapeshot, if Gaddock Teeg ends up seeing more play, would that change your plan? Or do you prioritize it less because it's generally a sideboard card anyway?
Too many people try to create back-doors to everything, sometimes its best to just accept the loss and get the next one. By trying to beat fringe cards, you'll end up lowering your overall MWP.
@@TheEPICStorm All good, I appreciate your answer! I'm a 12-Post player at heart so I'm used to attacking things from unusual angles :)
23:44 - It's an interesting phenomenon, Bryant. Some might say that you don't need the mana. But to those people, I just gotta ask you one question: ARE YOU READY TO RUMBLE?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ thanks for being a member!
This seems like a good experiment, though I'm not sure that the white card shown in the intro is going to really see play. The logic behind removing grapeshot is reasonable and the deck seems solid though
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I think drawing the LED was good there
🌩🌩🌩❤❤❤
☀️☀️☀️☀️
would damage can't be prevented effects work ?
You’d have to consult a judge
Lions eye diamond... pretty good.
Just commenting so you know.
What a cool list too bad it's very expensive on paper. I'll definetely proxy it to play with friends.
MTGO is also a very affordable option!
I lost to Approach so much while it was in standard! Great 5-0.
🏆🏆🏆🏆
Hate to say this but Relay looked fucking nuts this league 😮
Ya love to hear it
23:42 I don’t think LED was a good draw.
I think it’s a GREAT draw 😂
Nice. Song of creation is very good and belongs in your 75. Don't think its worth moving it to the side to fit in Zirda, the Dawnwaker as a free 3/3 companion. Kaheera is easier to fit in but can't block thalia. BtM is too good over Jegantha. Though I'm not sure how relevant they are as buffer against counter balance
I wouldn't play any of those companions even if I wanted to, ps. Zirda is banned.
I didn't even know Zirda was banned. I knew yorion and lurrus were axed. Companion most broken thing WotC since black lotus
THE SECOND STORM
☀️☀️☀️☀️
23:49 could you not have beseeched for song of creation there? I mean you had three 0 cost artifacts
So you’re making the assumption that beseech resolves, if you do that, then you can just Tendrils for the win.
hmm... i like it
☀️
I think LED was a good draw. 😘
This is a different approach to winning, but I love it. At first I thought it was going to be some sort of omnitell wincon since it is easy to cast twice there.
Easy to cast here too!
*hits blunt*
Yikes 😬
@@TheEPICStorm when u on ur 3rd rotation and bro suggests approach of the second sun
Orim’s Chant costs 13 less mana
And doesn’t answer the one ring or the new flare
That red Necropotence was so good.
I didn’t like this vid, I loved it. Second Sun stinks no doubt, totally win-more, but because you’re highly skilled you can play a 74 card deck. It was neat though to see you pull it off.
I dont agree ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
