At 33:50 this was just a salty rant, I had 2 pain lands so there was no way to play Somnophage & Spider without taking a hit. #AutotapperDidNothingWrong
Pains me to hear that you make less views, in my case, I started MTG Arena just as you switched up for it! I enjoy very much your vids! To be honest, I decided to switch when you said: "LoR is just like MTG but way less complicated" and I was like: "oh you telling me I've been playing the wrong card game all along?!" :D
I'm here because CGB recommended you, and I couldn't be happier -- I love the deckbuilding, the deck tech, the gameplay. You are awesome. I *might* even sometimes prefer your channel to CGB since you focus on Standard exclusively. (Don't tell him).
If all his Magic videos were in Spanish, I'd still watch his content. I've been wanting to learn it for years. When I first started watching Mog very recently, I thought he was from New York. Turns out, very much the opposite. 🤣 Also, I like the part in this video where he said he can't English. While it may not his first language, his English is superb.
@@blobzombie yeah he's always had pretty great English, i used to watch back when he played Gwent must be around 6 years ago and his English was damn near perfect back then too
I've been waiting for a deck I can make from cards used in your Ratgari, and this is it. This looks like so much fun. It goes without saying, but TYSM for making these decks. They breathe life back into one of my favorite passions ❤️
This deck was awesome to see in action. Hardly any Bloomburrow cards in it which is refreshing given the new dynamic… Savage take on Sultai, Mog… Well done! 👍
Really cool deck dude! Old viewer here, been following you since the early days of Runeterra and I'm happy to see you finding a place in Magic again! As a request, could you do a deck for Gev, the scaled scorch? Been playing with some brews of my own for the little guy and would love to see what you would build
Mogwai, do you plan on making a brawl gameplay ? Some fun commander like Laughing Jasper? I think it would be a fun way to take a break from all the mono red and mono black in standard ranked these days.
Funny thing : so many people are playing mono black discard I have met people who play that baloth (4/4 for 4 if it gets discarded by an opponent effect you put it directly on the battlefield) in their deck. And I find that hillarious anyways yeah lot of monoB discard which is why I am switching to decks that use the graveyard more than the hand xD
Would love to see your version of a cruelclaw deck, I'm sure it'd be incredible as always. And yes you are correct I'm so tired of facing mono black discard on the ladder. Have seen it in gold all the way to mythic somehow. It's so boring to fight as well.
This is some spicy brewing going on here. I've all the cards, so I'll definitely give this one a go! I know exactly how you feel about punting, especially in that first game where you missed out on damage from not kicking Lhurgoyf. I've made too many fuckups in this game to count, and it gets to me, even the day after. You hold yourself accountable, and you move on. Just remember, at the end of that match, you still won.
Self mill beat down is so simple yet surprising at the same time. It power creeps outta nowhere for the two shot victory with 10/10 creatures, lol. There are a few things more satisfying then watching mono red lose to a slow turn 3 starting deck too 😂
Running a similar style of deck: a few thoughts... 1) No Glarb?? this is exactly the deck for him lol 2) Rubblebelt Maverick I think is a strict upgrade to the 1-drop milling rat that you have in there 3) Chupacabra is a good idea! Made that change for mine... 4) Hollow Marauder is another creaturee like the Swarm that is solid
1) While Glarb COULD fit this deck, I personally don't see enough synergy considering it requires me to have sultai mana online by 3. I have other plans for Glarb though! 2) This Sultai list is dense on black, if you inspect the list you'll notice my green plays are 3+ cost, which enables me to run a lower count of green lands. Vermin is also very good in this meta IMO, to deter early aggressions and kill off them DAMN BATS. THEY EVERYWHERE. 3) Yeah I slept on Chupacabra echo for far too long myself haha 4) Hollow Marauder is a dope suggestion! Not sure what I'd take out for it though, I feel like it kind of competes with Swarm and I prefer Swarm.
@@MegaMogwai Fair points. My list at the end of this comment for reference. 1) I've found Glarb to be extremely solid for turning a neutral/slightly behind boardstate into a dominant one; even had a couple games where I was basically dead and then topdecked him and fought back into it. Playing multiple Swarms/Maurauders from the top of the deck is incredible and he helps you dig as well. I've had a couple games where I only had B/U lands early, but it's not too vital to have him hit on turn 3, he's good all game long. May just be luck so far but mana hasn't been too big an issue in general. 2) Looks like this is just our lists being different, haha; our mill setup is pretty different. Mine runs almost as much Green as black (aftermath analyst has the benefit of also being a removal magnet despite not being a combo in this deck). I value the Surveil a lot since if you have a Glarb out or need to set up your next draw(s), it allows you to do that. I might try them out instead of Faerie Dreamthief; but then again the draw ability from the graveyard is also rather good... worth testing though. 4) I feel like they complement each other, more than anything. Marauder is surprisingly fragile but is a good beater in the air when it sticks, and puts you up on card advantage, where the Swarm is just an insanely efficient body that helps to stabilize and then punch in.

you could up the ante and go full cards that cost less for each creature in grave (like hollow marauder and writhing necromass) + up beanstalk + glarb (since they are all mana value 4+) and just vomit the deck on the board.
I love your deckbuilding mog and I would love to watch your gameplay more but I watch on mobile, and I gotta say, mtg is really not mobile friendly with every card having a paragraph of tiny text
The problem I have with MTG is that it's extremely expensive. It takes a long time to build a single deck, like 2TP, and even when I calculate how much I get if I pay the price of a AAA game, it basically gets me nowhere, so it's not even worth putting money into it. The decks and strategies are cool, but unfortunately, I always look at the potential timeline and see that it will take maybe 2 months to reach that point. I think this is also the reason for the low number of views. There's a certain number of people who only watch decks with the colors they play.
saying new chupa is better is just mean to old chupa he could destroy a creature if something beats new chupas amount of -x then old chupa wouldve just killed it statline doesnt matter when you are just using it for effect
Easy deck to play if you show no games against Rakdos Prowess that hits more than 1 land drop in the first 3 turns. The second match against Rakdos is impossible to win.

Love the decks. Watched everyday back in the LoR days and still watch everyday now. You got me back into Magic!

Love the daily vids Mog! Miss the streams, hopefully they return soon!

I'm so glad Mogwai is playing MTG again. The snap era was horrific!
Cool descent deck, definitely one of my favorite mechanics. It reminds me of deep from LoR, which was always cool to play
Good to see that you are back to playing Magic again!
Really cool deck dude! Old viewer here, been following you since the early days of Runeterra and I'm happy to see you finding a place in Magic again!

New subscriber here, I really like your decks. Very fun to play, playing the Bubonic plague rat swarm now
Honest Rustein for an honest deck, love to see it!
I never thought I would switch to mtg arena, but I did after you, and I am really enjoying it :)
Mogwai, do you plan on making a brawl gameplay ? Some fun commander like Laughing Jasper? I think it would be a fun way to take a break from all the mono red and mono black in standard ranked these days.
Comment for the algo!
After LoR was binned i jumped ship to MTG as well. Really glad you made a similar jump so i can keep enjoying your decks!
Commenting for the algorithm. 😂 Great content as always, Mogwai!

anyways yeah lot of monoB discard which is why I am switching to decks that use the graveyard more than the hand xD
Thank you mog for your amazing videos! Your insights are always great and helps me a lot to become a better player! Also this is for the algorithm

What do you about maybe new/other game Fridays or whatnot? Could help avoid burnout maybe?
Hey Mog, love the vids!! I’d love to catch a stream of yours sometime, do you know when you’ll start to stream again?
