I love how there are comments here older than a decade remarking on how Nassif is still in the game, and now we're over twenty years into his career. One of the greatest to ever do it.
it's great to see how LSV has lost so much weight watching this video and watching a recent episode of Channel Fireball Magic TV. i'm happy for him, great job man.
Hahaa i dont believe it! My favorite french player Gabriel still in the tournaments!! I've been watching this guy since 2002. One of the funniest players :D
@ninjoshot He's the official WotC writer, writing coverage for the game as it goes on. He'll write a rough sketch of the game and keep notes of soundbites the players come up with.
@joshua61991 If you're talking about a standard tournament, there are no 2nd turn win decks even with an optimum draw. If you're thinking legacy or vintage, say hello to force of will.
i've noticed that no one uses a specific combo. I have a combo deck that is at most a two turn winner, could I win one of these tournaments with that combo deck or are combo decks easily beaten?
I've been playing Magic for about 4 years and I can't see myself playing in these. I have a kick ass Red, White, Green. Also Nyah or Niegha. Havent Figured the spelling by memory lol
rofl that guy is wrong Kai Budde is the greatest player n magic history so far..btw hes German... yea hes top 8 over 10 times 7 pro wins, and some other great achievements... type kai budde and look him up if u want
@lnmylife Sure, but without "nerds" the world would basically stop. no internet, no new cars, no ipods, no computers. AS 60 minutes once stated : "blessed are the Geeks; for they shall inherit the earth." ;)

Yeah he’s incredible and always brought a cool deck
Nassif looks like a James Bond villain.
even tho i dont play magic anymore, watching the finals is always so much fun. really shows theres tons of skills in this beautiful game

i thought it was a black lady doing the commentating, until i realised audio is bad and it was just randy buelher

HELLO AND WELCOME TO THE PRO TOUR KYOTO CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH!!!!! Holy crap that scared me.
good stuff. i like the annotations you have on some of the videos.
*subscribed
Man.... do we HAVE to listen to Randy Buhler in EVERY one of these videos? What a freakin voice...

Yeah, I kinda felt bad after I posted it. He sounds like a nice guy and all. It's just that he doesn't have a traditional sports caster type of voice.
this might be the best match i've ever seen
@Kalinack AB just post the vids, those are official WotC staff
me too :D
I rlly like the planetwalkers game on xbox, its pretty sweet
Your opinion; both games require large amounts of strategic planning and short-term tactics. I personally think Chess is more complicated than M:TG.
10 years later, Nassif is STILL a well known control player.
Typing the match for the wizards main website.
@littlteapot It's a recent change in the rules, +1/+1 counters and -1/-1 counters on the same permanent annihilate each other.
I miss 5cc so much...
i've noticed that no one uses a specific combo. I have a combo deck that is at most a two turn winner, could I win one of these tournaments with that combo deck or are combo decks easily beaten?
does anybody know if there is any diference in using vintage or standard cards? i mean can you do a pro tour with vintage cards?
Not a big fan of control decks but they are needed they bring balance
I wonder why the camera guy interrupted looking at the players' faces to show some irrelevant cards on the table...
LSV versus Nassif!!!! Thumbs up!!!
lol Broodmate Dragon is RGB, alot of five-color control run them.
where can i get the decklists for these decks
can they plz get a new camra man :)
is there a HD version of this
Except for the most part in magic the lines of of play are much more obvious. But yes, Chess and Magic are very similar games down to that attribute.
Is like chess, but with 20k+ different pieces to play and almost infinite strategies :)
Are deck lists available?
Magic the Gathering is like playing chess without being able to see your opponents pieces
I've been playing Magic for about 4 years and I can't see myself playing in these. I have a kick ass Red, White, Green. Also Nyah or Niegha. Havent Figured the spelling by memory lol
U know where can i download HQ MTG matches?
@littlteapot they basically changed it into a positive/negative scale
When he said "Ajani Goldmane" at 1:26 I heard "A Johnny Goldmine"
are there any pro players playing mono-red goblin decks? if so, deck list?
I hope I get to become half as good as Scott-Vargas some day lol
is this aired on tv?
is a red white deck chaos?
best name EVER! Guillume Wafa Topa!
Damn i do not get a thing here.but they sure shuffle that cards a lot.
What is the guy with the laptop doing?
whats the guy with the laptop doing?
@cubandarknez You know that making those comments actually fuel those prejudices?
yeah i figured
dude, bond of agony isn't standard. and this is the standard tournament.
whats it called?
i prefer my bond of agony deck.. 2nd turn kill with the right hand ^_^ won my local tournament 3 times now with it
is this standard?
I would think that Magic IS more complicated than chess
Casually splashing cloudthresher.
yea
@CriticalHit052 They're just nonbasic
What's with the horrible sound?
YES BECAUSE I KNOW CRUEL IS IN IT.
rofl that guy is wrong Kai Budde is the greatest player n magic history so far..btw hes German... yea hes top 8 over 10 times 7 pro wins, and some other great achievements... type kai budde and look him up if u want
"Clearly". There's nothing clear about that. But you're right I don't play much chess. But sure explain to everyone why it's so clear.
oh ok
thought the same..
Tell that to Wizards
@lnmylife Sure, but without "nerds" the world would basically stop. no internet, no new cars, no ipods, no computers. AS 60 minutes once stated : "blessed are the Geeks; for they shall inherit the earth." ;)
lol nobody is at the final everyones at the beta draft
@paaloozaa I love magic to death. But not more than I love chess. Magics got nothing on chess IMO.
naya
ermmm no....
theres better lists for standard but ya. That is your main goblin deck btw if ur playing vintage waren instigator sucks wang
GO HISPANICS, SHATTER THE PREJUDICE AGAINST HISPANIC GAMERS!
I dont know what the hell is going on???? They need a better set up then this!
You clearly don't play much chess. :P
