I see control mirror matches as 2 people arguing politely in the beginning, then cursing each other, and finally getting down to a horrible naked fist fight.
😂😂😂 perfect visual
Mostly cursing your opening hand unluck! Since I find that when you play control vs control, a lot of the time it comes down to land draw and having the right counter in your hand available at that time.
I'm pretty sure I know what that rakdos deck with the powerstones was trying to do. They were going to sac their treasures/powerstones/fleshgorger to Lich-Knight's Conquest the whole graveyard back, including a big fleshgorger, over and over again. They scooped because you were exiling everything.
Lol, I see Golgari or Mono Black. Ill let em take half my health if it means exiling instead of kill.
I just love the fact that a Food Clue is a card now.
Next, Golden Pretzels, a Food Treasure.
Or One For The Road, a Blood Food.
I would say where there is food token, there must surely be shit token...
I definitely wanna see a Treasure Food Blood Clue Powerstone some day. Wonder what the going rate would be on a card with: (2), tap, discard a card, sacrifice : You gain 3 life, draw 2 cards, and add one mana of any color. (and also it is a limited mana rock)
I would laugh if they made a food/blood card that's just a scottish blood sausage.
Sadly, while Blood/Clue has good thematic overlap (we are getting a murder mystery set soon), the 2 effects do too similar to the same thing for it to be an interesting design.
I keep hoping for a Clue Equipment called Murder Weapon.
I love when Cgb has a new control build out and the games with the mirror match ups are my favorite. There is something incredibly satisfying about watching you play and explain how a control player thinks. I'm definitely not there, but man is it great to watch!
That control mirror was captivating. As a casual control player, it’s rough doing the mirror against a veteran. This is why I study the One to learn what’s worth fighting over and to fully understand the long game. Bravo, CGB.
Exactly the same here! I love the feeling of playing control v. aggro or midrange. Control mirrors I find super hard to navigate though.
"And the server is lagging"
Mean while mono black: LOOOOL INFINITE BLOOBLINGS
that control mirror was a true delicacy for UW lovers. And we know we are at the right place to see the master in action.
Your look at the end of the last game was so perfectly smug. I loved it.
What makes this all the better is the fact the namesake card is currently in the daily deals.
"exactly enough calculated mamina" 😂
Seriously though this video is why I got hooked on your channel, CGB! I think I'm gonna go back and make a playlist of all blue white control videos on your channel
In game 1, all I could hear is Ultron saying: This is going VERY well.
WOW! Absolutely incredible, that last game was a real "Treat" :p
Blue mage carnage at its best.
This was a blast to watch. That control mirror was super informative.
Man that last play was funny lol got so flustered at the end!
I loved that control mirror for the most part. The uncertainty of if they had emperor when you quick studied is killing me. If it was a top deck, than the match was a sweet showcase of good timing vs great timing.
I called this card as being extremely underrated The day it was released and ivan waiting for people to catch up.
Watching CGB in a control mirror is satisfying.
"You catch more flies with honey than vinegar" CGB about Honey Cookies MTG deck, probably
SWEET! The next BW control deck! I have been having so much success and tons of fun with the Horned Loch Whale deck you created earlier. This has ne so hyped because I get to use disruption protocol. Honestly, it's one of my favorite cards of all time.
UW* B is black
Love watching your videos! Always a fun and a great learning experience watching you play azorius control. Thank you!
damn i totally forgot glass casket was in the format, used to be one of my go to cards back in the old eldraine standard to survive against aggro (and later blink with yorion)
My wife says your Palpatine impression is excellent
Dude, that last match had me laughing so hard. I desperately want to know what was going through the opponents head when they just kept swinging with the whale. Like did they not notice the poison racking up or were they just *that* tilted?? Not to mention that Sunfall?? Did they forget he had two Mirrex’s or what? 💀
It was like a pro swordsman with a rapier slashing up a brawler with a broadsword. It was great.
@@christophwhiteyz9787 It was definitely a masterclass showcase on how to play the control mirror.
standard and no cauldron? Amazing.
I think the cauldron is his new Yorion
sunfall, farewell, emperor not enough exile for you?
Collectors vault almost feels like a prank with how good it is
Ive been running a very low to the ground creature/control deck that is basically a 21 land midrange deck lol.
Its golgari enchantments with Wrenn, Skitters Blessing, the two green enchantment counter creatures, ichor drinker, the black 1 mana 3/2, and a whole load of cheap -×/-× enchantments, the 2 mana removal enchantment, and audacity. Its amazing against mono red and occasionally steals wins against the other decks through power draws or just grinding wins with Wrenn or Skitters blessing
I added 4 candy trail to my UW Jace control and took out 4 emporers
This was a good change.
Great daily content as usual. Thanks for continuing to be the one in best of one and infiltrate the meta. Maybe a mono red deck next? I am curious on how good Dragon mantle is, if anyone can make it work you can!
Deck name would have been Candy Crusher (but it’s been taken). Thanks CGB for the stellar deck. Been itching for a good Azorius control list - even if this is not optimal for current standard meta, stuff it, I want to have fun playing the decks that make me happy :)
CGB 25:19 "Stroke the Liliana." Sir, please! keep it PG!
SWEET DECK!
Nice deck.
I share the same hate for monoRED 👍😂
Gotta love glass casket back in standard.
That's why I think up the beanstalk is so good. It's memory deluge for 2 mana
Thanks CGB!
@covertgoblue would love to see your thoughts on mixing in chrome host seedshark into this deck. i dont have all the wildcards so ive used CHSS as a nice way to get some artifact synergy added in.
Enjoying your videos from Dominican Republic for the next 2 weeks.
I do think that Abzan and Orzhov Control are actually really good into mono red. In both of mine i play 4 copies of Virtue, Cut Down, Throat + 1-2 Path of Peril, and i can answer every creature. Im putting a lot of eggs in the removal basket, while also having lifegain and sweepers. Midgame im either going with Creature Lands (and they both provide lifegain) or a Few Planeswalkers like Emperor or Sorin. Im having amazing results with these decks against mono red. But if its another control gamer, im quitting instantly, you just aint winning that. I do believe that you cant really build a control deck, that can beat everything like thats impossible, so im leaning into beating aggro decks in some control decks, while others i play if i want to have long and grindy games.
Betst MTG creator, that last match was legendary
Great gameplay!
One thing to help against mono red is yo seitch the glass caskets and the make disappear for 3 smites
Title missed opportunity:
Making opponents salt with sweats.
Saw it first on the drrukus channel (when going against you)
41:27 They should have let the whale get exiled and then they can replay it from exile, them saccing it to counter was a waste since you were only going to exile the whale and your own creature. Some people amaze me with their dumbness lol
Insane Deck ❤
I think you just described adulthood
Such a good video title !
I don’t have the patience for this type of deck.
That intro was awesome.
prewatched this deck on the Dr. Ruckus channel
hello cgb,
maybe you could build an azorius control deck with only defender creatures?
There are a lot of cheap creatures that could at least annoy mono red and it would definitely be a fun deck and a challenge for you
Greetings from Germany
CGB want to ask, why dont you farewell the grave when they had 3 deluge on grave and tap out ? Want to know your consideration thanks
What a Sweet deck.
Sweet deck
why not farewell the three deluges? with a sunfall on hand even.
Game 3 vs. GB is an example of why I am always skeptical of Lilliana otV as a good planeswalker. Pretty sure the opponent threw away better cards with the +1 than CGB and the ultimate didn’t come close to winning the game... I'm generally suspicious of any planeswalker where it is not always a good idea to +1 and whose ultimate doesn't close out the game. I think the op would have been better off just to play out the cards they discarded and make CGB cast his counters and use the mana
Liliana of the Veil is amazing against aggro and midrange. You can wreck the opponent's midrange/aggro strategy by making them discard the top of their curve. In an ideal situation you can -2 for a sacrifice on the turn you play her, protect her for one turn to get a discard on +1, then -2 again.
She has the tradeoff of being abysmally bad against low-creature or token-spam control decks, +1ing her when you have to pitch relevant spells and your opponent is pitching trash is literally killing yourself and if her -2 is going to either be irrelevant or kill a single token on a board of like 3+ she's hardly worth the mana to cast.
She's at the least grown to one of if not my favourite designs for a walker, though.
I'm so glad that I've gotten to see her reintroduced into a Standard without the awkward Lingering Souls / Obstinate Baloth situation going on and during which I'm actually watching gameplay.
I just really appreciate the simplicity and brevity of her lines of text along with the unique angles she shapes decisions playing with and against her (as well as deck construction and sideboarding where that's relevant). And of course how well she captures the theme of her mono-colour. All of her abilities are resource-negative, while leaving room for graveyard leverage.
Azorius control master class 👌
More control vs control matches please. Enjoyed that one alot
Could you possible make this into a orzhov deck?
Can we have an updated Jund pile now that there’s no fable
Your cool, cgb
We need Thought Distortion in standard to punish draw go.
And we dont need anything to punish aggro decks, right?
Wait a minute, we need more cards that help aggro decks, RIGHT?
The untapped link just navigates to untapped main webpage. Anyone else have this issue?
Candy trail has been my sleepwear card since it was spoiled but you have way to many draw spells in this deck
It’s nice to see you get pleasure for tormenting fellow control players as well as aggro players.
Bow wow wow.
Never seen so many misplaying from CGB like in the game VS jal811 Golgari deck.
remember to brush your teeth after watching this
good.
Winning with creatures is for the simpletons
Right when blue didn't have enough cheap counter spells.... magic please stop
Too bad about that, "hand smoother algorithm." Can't take the rigged and scripted matches anymore. I wonder if I can sell my account...
There's no way Ceg's opponents are top 500 mythic players. There's just no way. This has to be edited to make it look that way. WAY to many mistakes and bad plays.
Salt makes people more likely to make mistakes and UW control is *the* deck to harvest salt from so honestly I’m not that surprised.

What annoys me is all this aggro makes stuff like Vault too slow, really ruins the experimentation.
