What an absolute banger. Been playing MTG for over 20yrs, and I LOVE watching LSV construct decks and play lines I know I couldn't personally ever pull together. This draft was the epitome of that. Beautiful.
This was MtG at it’s finest. An absolute joy to watch. Thank you Luis, for all you’ve done for Magic through all these years. Your love for the game is truly captivating. Cheers!
@lsv There *has* to be a win at 36:30. Something like: put troll + swamp back. upkeep mystical for dark ritual, play island, dark ritual into doomsday. Put thassa's oracle, FoW, preordain + 2 other cards back, order doesn't matter. play LED, crack play echo. By this point, your GY is: doomsday, LED, island. you have UU up. if they exile the LED, you draw down to exactly 0 cards in deck, and have oracle + FoW in hand. So it's better for the opp not to exile LED. If opp doesn't exile LED, then we draw down to 1 random card in deck. Here we could also, have oracle + FoW in hand and have an easy win, but if we're unlucky, the last card is oracle. So we play LED, tap blue, play ponder, crack LED for UUU, and play oracle with 0 cards in deck. i think it's a guaranteed win if the opponent doesn't interact, and in many lines, its even guaranteed with FoW in hand.
What an absolutely insane deck. There are some combos that are actually weirdly easy to pull off in cube thanks to the 40-card deck, but I never thought I would see a complete doomsday thassa's oracle deck in this format
Just the other day we saw him complain about opening a Black Lotus that was passed to Cheon. Gotta call that bluff LSV, we have seen ya complain about opening moxen.
Watching you figure out the doomsday plays reminds me why my CEDH doomsday deck gets left behind most of the time... TOO MUCH TIME THINKING ABOUT DOOMSDAY 🤣 GREAT DRAFT ALL TOGETHER, REALLY ENJOYED THIS ONE! 👍💯
I get that all of the older 4+ mana cards have fallen off a considerable amount. But I'm pretty sure the death of Treachery has been greatly overstated. The card's not a bomb anymore, but it's still among the best of the 5 drops for any midrange deck. I have it ranked very near to the blue Goldspan Dragon.
This... is an insane Doomsday deck. Not hitting any Island/Swamp really hurt this one, but otherwise it has all the things. Casting Life from the Mox is also just *chef's kiss*
Can we get a Top 5 Doomsday Decks video? I know there aren't any other Doomsday videos, you can just loop this one 5 times. I'd watch it all the way through, this draft was so good.
Also top 8d this 64 and was really looking forward to the chance of playing you - ended up losing the first round to thief_of_crowns on a crazy deck… curious if ill see it in p2
Long gone are the days of shoddy mic and audio quality. Just wanted to shout out how much the production quality has shot up since the start of the channel! Love the daily content, great work LSV!
Awesome draft that was really fun to watch. I’ve honestly gotten absurdly unlucky in drafts… I’ve had some bangers brewing and next thing I know I can’t find a way to kill anyone. Sigh. I’ll keep trying! :P
At 59:10, we don’t have to give up on Thought Scour for the turn. We can cast it in response to Esper Sentinel, and Esper Sentinel won’t tax either spell (since it wasn’t in play for Thought Scour, and first spell had already been cast for Contagion).
Starting off the year with a combo deck ready for the compilation in december in 12 months. Awesome deck love the doomsdays, gifts ungiven style decks etc. where you really get to think hard.
Yay Doomsday and we didn't need a stipulation draft. Would love to see some stipulation drafts, within reason. Aetherflux for instance is fun, and you've won with it in a non stipulation draft or two. (Ofc stipulation couldn't apply to team drafts) ask chat or do a poll if you're not streaming. It'd be fun....
I know this isn’t the match to do it in. But when you wanna try something new. Give Shorikai a shot. Let’s you see a ton of cards, is a nice discard outlet and it makes idiots for cradle.
Have you considered putting Demonic Consultation in your mtgo cube? I think it would be a sweet addition to doomsday+oracle packages and can also be used in A+B combo decks at a higher risk of decking yourself.
Consultation is always a hilarious card, even in constructed. Nothing like hitting all four copies of the named card and accidentally killing yourself on turn 1 lmao 😭🤣😂
this is a work of art. decades of skill refined to one insane draft pile. lsv is a madman.
Such a crazy game 1. Best and most timely Brainstorm in all of history.
that brainstorm gave me heartburn
The whiplash was real!
The GOAT of brainstorms. So sweet especially with LSV accepting his fat only to have the tables turn completely after the brainstorm lol.
Very much, "call an ambulance... But not for me" vibes
This has got to be an all timer, so many edge of your seat moments.
What an absolute banger. Been playing MTG for over 20yrs, and I LOVE watching LSV construct decks and play lines I know I couldn't personally ever pull together. This draft was the epitome of that. Beautiful.
LSV literally jumped out of his chair when that Mystical Tutor wheeled.
And the Contagion 15th pick right afterward that comes in clutch in match 3! Truly a blessed draft.
This is honestly completely nuts to make Doomsday work in cube.
You're one of the world's finest combo players; this was a treat to watch.
This was MtG at it’s finest. An absolute joy to watch.
Thank you Luis, for all you’ve done for Magic through all these years. Your love for the game is truly captivating.

I suppose this marks the first and only time LSV drafts Academy and retrofitter, but cuts them.

This has to be one of the coolest decks he’s drafted.

Piloting Doomsday is hard enough in constructed, so making it work in cube is awesome!
In constructed there's a lot more interaction to play around, especially if you drafted the Force of Will yourself.
Thassa's Oracle makes doomsday piles a lot easier to navigate.
Piloting doomsday can be done by the shitstain left by my roommate this morning. The deck is piss easy
@@dingdongs5208bro chill
@@dingdongs5208 You doing alright, friend?
Stomp not going to the graveyard so you can kill Tarmogoyf is so cute.
This was possibly the most fun deck I've ever watched you draft. The games were close, technical, and exciting.
“No one else is Yawg Will-ing. I feel like we kinda deserve it! Haha, no we don’t. No one deserves anything.” - LSV, 2024 19:40
Not the puns we need, but the puns we deserve.
Spicy deck. You know when tolarian gets cut and the “worst” mox helps him clear oko it’s gonna be a fun ride.
That Brainstorm at 30:15 is just perfect!
This was one of few videos i didn't watch in the background while doing something else.
I enjoyed every minute of it, great stuff
This was an extreme delight to watch, just beautiful
Me: thinking LSV is talking so fast he chokes.
LSV: "Mystical is back?" 14:38
God this deck was so sick. So glad it came together
1st video of yours I watched this year and it's an absolute banger!
“I’m not going to complain about getting a mox” he says 😂
I’m guessing he says this while complaining about getting a Mox.
@@Anusien you are correct 😀
Just the other day we saw him complain about opening a Black Lotus that was passed to Cheon.
Gotta call that bluff LSV, we have seen ya complain about opening moxen.
Wow, this is my favourite LSV video in a long time. Great plays, edge of the seat action.
I've watched every LSV cube video and this is easily the best and most memorable to date GGs
When the p1p1 mox isnt in the thumbnail, you know the deck is good.
Youre a genius, and thank you for letting us join the ride…this was great
Watching you figure out the doomsday plays reminds me why my CEDH doomsday deck gets left behind most of the time... TOO MUCH TIME THINKING ABOUT DOOMSDAY 🤣 GREAT DRAFT ALL TOGETHER, REALLY ENJOYED THIS ONE! 👍💯
I did, I enjoyed watching that. Very well played, and your narration through your choices and plays added to....my time well spent.
I get that all of the older 4+ mana cards have fallen off a considerable amount. But I'm pretty sure the death of Treachery has been greatly overstated. The card's not a bomb anymore, but it's still among the best of the 5 drops for any midrange deck. I have it ranked very near to the blue Goldspan Dragon.
I agree, except that being among the best 5 drops is the problem - 5 drops aren’t good anymore for the most part
The most technical, sickest, deck you've ever drafted. I hope you win it all with this masterpiece.
Actually said out loud "this is *nuts*" while watching the combo off the first two times, it's so great to watch.
This... is an insane Doomsday deck. Not hitting any Island/Swamp really hurt this one, but otherwise it has all the things.
Casting Life from the Mox is also just *chef's kiss*
Mystical wheels and I've never been more excited for a deck
Rule 1: If there is a Preordain, LSV will pick it. 😁
By far the best cube draft you uploaded XD I was waiting for Doomsday to shine :D Keep it up! And good luck today for the top 8!!
Holy Bananas what a DRAFT DECK! Seems like you are the only one who could make such a thing happen. Congrats
Those Doomsday rips were truly mental but you piloted the deck to perfection!
Every match was crazy 🤯
This deck was sweet and the matches were even better. So satisfying. Can’t wait for the next one.
@lsv you sir are a well articulated and skilled scholar of fine cardboard. Making dd and piloting it to 3-0 in cube is just 👩🍳kiss!
that 14th pick mystical was unreal. Made the entire deck (after recall)
Dang... Thassa's Oracle stole everyone's shiny ball today. Sweet deck!
This is my favorite deck you’ve ever drafted.
Game one was crazy! I didn't think that doomsday would be a real thing in cube, but you showed me.
If LSV can play Stormless Storm and Zero Wincon Academy then he can make Doomsday work
@lostalone9320 very true. Give LSV an academy and he'll figure out a way to win.
Can we get a Top 5 Doomsday Decks video? I know there aren't any other Doomsday videos, you can just loop this one 5 times. I'd watch it all the way through, this draft was so good.
It's only 4am in Australia. What's one more timely LSV video.
It's like getting Timely Reinforcements every day
This was an absolute masterclass in how to draft vintage cube and play magic.
Wow i love watching people play Solitaire.
Doomsday really is the king of games where neither player is sure who is winning.
That was a sick draft and great games! Been waiting for Doomsday to make the cut. 👌🏻
Also top 8d this 64 and was really looking forward to the chance of playing you - ended up losing the first round to thief_of_crowns on a crazy deck… curious if ill see it in p2

Definitely one of my favorite combo decks that LSV has ever drafted
Poor OP. That was one of the most brutal misplays I've ever seen.
Starting off the year with a combo deck ready for the compilation in december in 12 months. Awesome deck love the doomsdays, gifts ungiven style decks etc. where you really get to think hard.
Oh what a beauty of a draft. That third round was deserved after how hard the first two were
R1 opponent is absolutely malding. That g1 felt like absolute justice
That first match was bananas.
vintage cube really separates the wheat from the chaff
It does not get better than this! Sick deck and sick games!
Yeeees dude this is why I subscribe to you man. Thank you for the top tier content.
T8 drafts of all time! My nominations:
LSV - Doomsday
Kenji - Marvel Panharmonicon Reservoir Inventor Invention
Kenji - T1 Storm Kill
Kenji - Zacama
That was just an absurd Doomsday deck. It would be hard to top that one
Sick deck!! Congrats on top 8 😂
Just finished M1G1. Wow. This is why brainstorm is king. Wowowow very nice piloting as usual too. I hope this deck goes the distance.
Doomsday decks are the best videos, always a bunch of wild games
Feel the doooom! WP. Thought doomsday was a meme in cube, but this deck was for real
Doomsday is so cool. Hard for me to fully understand all the interactions but it’s a fun card!
I LOVE Doomsday piles. This was such a chef kiss deck!
Doomsday working in cube gotta be an all timer
That were some crazy games. Dunno what else to say!
My favorite vid of the channel to date.
loved every minute of this
Literally how did you pull this deck off?
Yay Doomsday and we didn't need a stipulation draft.
Would love to see some stipulation drafts, within reason. Aetherflux for instance is fun, and you've won with it in a non stipulation draft or two. (Ofc stipulation couldn't apply to team drafts) ask chat or do a poll if you're not streaming.
It'd be fun....
Beautiful. Just a pleasure to watch. GG
What a great deck! It is amazing so see this archetype work in draft
Sick deck, sick games!!! All time best draft video ?
beautiful draft and games
Another video for my collection the greatest cube videos!
Interesting deck, incredible skill and overall fun to watch
chef's kiss draft and run
I literally never comment in anything but man..this Draft was sick. Congrats
He should have said "Life finds a way" in M1G1
Brainstorm into win was fantastic!
57:00 how many of us have been in Tobey's spot here...just staring at your monitor in disbelief after passing priority one too many times?
Man I hope this is the first Doomsday among many
the shade getting tossed at wurcoil and treachery lmfao 1 minute in
"huh... Ya im gna take academy" 😂😂😂😂
I know this isn’t the match to do it in. But when you wanna try something new. Give Shorikai a shot. Let’s you see a ton of cards, is a nice discard outlet and it makes idiots for cradle.
Have you considered putting Demonic Consultation in your mtgo cube? I think it would be a sweet addition to doomsday+oracle packages and can also be used in A+B combo decks at a higher risk of decking yourself.
Consultation is always a hilarious card, even in constructed. Nothing like hitting all four copies of the named card and accidentally killing yourself on turn 1 lmao 😭🤣😂
I think Divining Witch would be a little more playable in a limited environment than Consultation but I've considered including them in my paper cube
My favorite doomsday deck I have done was doomsday, shelldock isle an emrakul with thoracle backup
Casting Life off of Mox Emerald is so 💯💯
Incredible draft
Length of the video and ratio of time spent on matches made me think we lost round 2 for sure.
Well, I guess this is literally Podracing.
