    at 22:06, since the ringbearer can't be blocked by higher power, and your saga gave your creatures double strike, you could have just made Tom the ringbearer and swung in for lethal. Jodah made his board too big to block anything power 5 or less

      She can only be activated at sorcery speed, though.

Also Satsuki needs to die for her other ability to trigger, so she's not as versatile

    I built a Tom Bombadil deck in Historic Brawl as well, but I stacked it with counterspells+ramp, this allows the sagas to pop off due to how slow they are, the ramp allows you to play Tom when you have counterspells available when the opponent hits turn 5. You basically prevent the opponent from destroying your best sagas or Tom and have a good chance of winning.

    A potential ENDLESS loop with BINDING OF THE OLD GODS at around 36:10 ??? Why don't you leave goldberry untapped and pass turn. Then at end step, move the one lore counter from goldberry onto a land you control. Then before you draw for turn, remove a lore counter from binding of the old gods with goldberry...then you can get another activation of chapter one, destroying a non land permanent. Or am I missing something here?? If that wasn't busted enough, you get to draw off goldberry's second ability.

      best case is when you need it and tom is indestructible (had this happen several times) worst case is it loses you the game however that seems extremely rare to me. out of about 30 games so far its won be 5-6 games and lost me 1. i say that risk factor is worth it. is there a better card? maybe but i wont cut it just on the off chance it screws me once in a blue moon
