That consult into a thoracle at the end made me cringe so bad. The proper way to do it is to cast thoracle, hold priority once resolved and then cast consult. If the thoracle gets countered at least you didn’t just exile your whole deck for fun. The way it was done in the video is sooooo risky
I don't remember why he did it in that specific order, I think he was trying to bait hidden into a counterspell without using thoracle, then it resolved he just went for it
The reason you do it in that order is because there are less creature counters in the meta than ways to counter instants. Like you said it is very risky but with null rod in play my lines were hindered. Since I had pact as my only counter spell my bet was that I could be a single creature counter but my odds fighting for the demonic consolation were a lot lower. The game had dragged on so long and I didn’t have enough answers to stax pieces in people’s hands to go for any other win condition. So if I wasn’t able to with thassa’s I probably would have lost regardless.
A nice little background music creating some ambience goes a long way to help viewers stay engaged when you're not talking. Other than that great video!
Yeah I've had people tell me both ways that some like it with music and others like without, I didn't see any difference in views when I stopped adding in the music, but maybe I should expirement and see
6:59 Signet should've entered tapped. It doesn't matter because of Null Rod being in play and not being removed within the turn cycle, but still.
Same thing with Heliod's Pyre of Heroes.
Yeah I realized when editing the game we missed this
@@DeadOnBoardMTG things happen lol, no one is perfect
at 9:16 Hidden used an Arcane Signet that should be tapped from BO to cast Narset's Reversal.
True but I had the open mana to cast it anyways
@@DeadOnBoardMTG 100% But seeing you tapped out or more tapped could possibly lead an opponent into thinking you can't interact.
No you're definitely right we got sloppy
Heliod can’t give itself lifelink. Not a huge deal but it’s a notable issue.
Oh whoops you are right, granted I don't think it ended up mattering but we will need to be more careful in the future

@@DeadOnBoardMTG I can definitely see how that can be confusing to handle! Ignore my comment and then do what makes editing easiest for y'all :D
I definitely agree, I prefer background music, and it's been over a year since I last added it so maybe things have changed
I definitely would've gone for the early game throacle win attempt.
I think with hidden almost always holding up mana and then the archon of emeria he didn't want to risk it
@@DeadOnBoardMTG that's true, I feel that hidden almost always has it lol
>both of his creatures lifelink
>another target creature
oh nah
Yeah we didn't realize at the time, granted it didn't really matter for the outcome
What app do you use for the life tracking?
Sorry thought I responded, we use the life tap app
Yeah no way breach would have been able to win that game 😅
