Okay not that it needed it, but Squee is getting slammed into my Rielle deck for the humor. First time I discard it like "gross, a 1/1 for 3 mana? what are you even doing in the deck? discard!" only for next turn to come around and Squee gleefully jumps back into my hand. "No!" "Stoppit!" "I'm never going to cast you, quit trying!"
I’ve been a big fan of Colossal Skyturtle since it first got spoiled. I’ve notice more people talking about how good it is lately. Glad to see my chonky boi getting his proper dues ❤ I run it in my Uro deck along with Greater Good. Both cards do so much work in that deck!
Glad you gave Mr Skyturtle a shout. Probably my favorite card from neon dynasty. Funny you mentioned stifle effects because I also love Mirrorshell crab from that same set!
10:22 Sinister Concierge is in my wife's 9th Doctor-Clara Oswald Untap UpkeepUpkeepUpkeepUpkeepUpkeep deck. And let me tell you. The amount of horrible things I have seen this card shut away (either through unwise attacks or deals being made) or have people decide not to attack because their thing's gone for three turns but this annoyance will be back next turn. Holy I have a fear response to that card. I've also seen her use it as boardwipe protection while she rebuild, the concierge takes Clara away while she spends three turns rebuilding then boom Clara's back. Basically I hate that card irrationally.
Friends have criticized “ringwraiths” in my Lord of Nazgûl deck, but for “the ring tempts you” decks it serves the exact purpose as Squee. The ring bearer makes you loot, get tempted by the ring and Ringwraiths comes back to hand. Repeat
There's a Yu-Gi-Oh card called Sinister Serpent that's identical to Squee that got banned. Card advantage was just way too important back then. It got errata'd to efficiently only be once every other turn and was unbanned but never sees play. Honestly, they could have easily unbanned it 10 years ago without the errata because the game switched from card advantage to combo by then.
I put Squee, goblin nabob in my Asmoranomardicadicedanaculdacar deck. It's fun to watch my opponents wonder why he's such a high value target for the entomb effects that I run, but they worry about the archfiend of ifnir instead.
I've been on the fence for the golden throne in my the watcher in the water deck for a while now. Haven't put it in because of how dependant on the commander it is to actually produce mana
And if you like Squee, the Modern Horizons sets also introduced Master of Undeath with a similar ability in blue/black although at the loss of a life each time he triggers to return to hand. Different angle, but if doing a lot of discard, then Containment Construct (and less so, Conspiracy Theorist) can let you play discarded spells, heck the construct even lets you play discard lands.
Crafty cutpurse is pretty underrated. There’s so much token stuff going on now and taking them is pretty good and will sometimes make your opponent stop what they’re doing. Last week I flashed it in on a 3 color Omnath player when he had a field of the dead and the green creature to double land etb trigger. I got 12 zombie tokens from him. I was gonna knock him out with it but my friend ended up wiping the board.
Been watching your channel for awhile & always love the perspective of your content. Have you thought about doing episodes where you showcase other people's decks that are really unique?
The Golden Throne helped me win a game. I was removed by the 2 remaining players and before I picked up to leave i notice Golden Throne and I was able to have my turn and won at 1 life
So I’ve been watching your channel for awhile, and I had an idea for a janky deck, I wondered if you’d consider. Use the companion that only allows one card of each name (Luthi), then use all the cards that allow you to have any number of that card in a deck (e.g. Hare Apparent, shadowborn apostle). My supposition is you would basically use blue to make copies of the cards on the battlefield…
As if Alela Artful Provocateur needed more additions, Canoptek Scarab Swarm is great in her deck, having those insects become 2/1 and creating a faerie is big for 4 mana in addition to the graveyard hate effect.
I took Crafty Cutpurse out of the only deck it was in. Just did not do much for me and was almost always either a dead card, or a barely limited level value, but that might just be a case of my playgroup.
Greater Good is solid but it will also depend on the deck.. Luckily Momentous Fall works as well for those decks that may not want said enchantment around
It's interesting to me that you like Colossal Sky Turtle but not MDFC lands, to me the same argument applies - it's a land in the early game if you need it, and something else later when you don't.
except turtle is just a good creature. even if it just had regular cycling it would be worth throwing in a deck. also i really don't like messing with my manabase.
Scarab Swarm is a big favorite of mine and it’s Shirei, Alesha and Donal mono blue flyers 😂 the first two can reanimate it and Donal copies it to hit two graveyards, it’s really solid. I especially like exiling a Buncha fetch lands the green player is looping
Oh AND it works in Aminatou where you can blink it and you want a lot of flying blockers for your commander. Literally four of my decks off the top of my head 😂
Rules question: with the change to "when it enters" instead of mentioning battlefield, would that mean if a card somehow made a creature into a land while its in your hand, would it still trigger when you play it?
The change to the wording on cards with an ETB trigger is really just that, there’s no rules change it’s just a clarification they are making to hold newer players hands so that they don’t misunderstand. Those cards previously mentioned themselves because they were talking about themselves, as in that card. I don’t believe there is anything that’s going to change the properties of a card in your hand so that it is no longer a creature or anything else and turn it into a different permanent type but there are cards that could make your permanent enter the battlefield as a different permanent type and there is no change to those cards. The ETB should trigger regardlessly. Another example is something like Necrotic Ooze which gains the activated abilities of all creatures in all graveyards, so if for example you also had Sakura-Tribe Elder in a graveyard while controlling Necrotic Ooze then the Ooze can sacrifice itself to put a basic land into pay from your library even though STE says “Sacrifice Sakura-Tribe Elder:” as a cost to use that activated ability; the card is really just saying “Sacrifice This Card:”.
Death of a thousand stings, is very similar to squee (I know it is worse) but in some decks I think it is really good, and a very funny card cause it seems soooo horrible

Ye tortol is insane.

I use it too in my Ellie and Alan, Paleontologists deck. Its versatility is really nice.

First card goes bananas with Amzu or any landfall mill strategy. Could even put it in my omnath gruul landfall land sac deck

Cool choices! Have thought about adding Plaza of Heroes or MDFCs lands to your decks?
💀💀💀
edhdeckbuilding I think there is an "older version" of Sinister Concierge: Dream Fighter from Mirage. He uses phase out instead of suspend.

It's a little too niche imo It feels bad holding 4 mana for nothing
Been watching your channel for awhile & always love the perspective of your content. Have you thought about doing episodes where you showcase other people's decks that are really unique?
i've featured a few of my patrons decks. i'm always open to interesting ideas.
The Golden Throne helped me win a game. I was removed by the 2 remaining players and before I picked up to leave i notice Golden Throne and I was able to have my turn and won at 1 life
Squee and Ovalchase Daredevil are super needed in my Asmoranomardiadiastinaculdacar deck. SO powerful in discard decks
Ya I got canoptek as an extra bit of oomph in my borborygmos deck

Holy, Xanthrid Demon is going so hard in my Ob Nixilis the Fallen. Sacrifice Nixilis for everyone losing 12~15 life? Yes please!
I made a deck with that squee as the commander
I took Crafty Cutpurse out of the only deck it was in. Just did not do much for me and was almost always either a dead card, or a barely limited level value, but that might just be a case of my playgroup.
Crafty Cutpurse is really good with Curse of the Swine or any of the removal spells that give your opponent a token to replace the thing you removed.
Canoptek Scarab Swarm could fit right into my Nylea - Artifact Creature Storm Deck ... hmmm
Awesome picks man! great video! i'm hoping for some more hidden gems in the future! ^^
Ah yes, golden throne, my favourite ramp in my willhein deck
Greater Good is solid but it will also depend on the deck.. Luckily Momentous Fall works as well for those decks that may not want said enchantment around

Put in a return to hand spell and it becomes repeatable.
I use rampage of the clans in my mazzy deck. It's great getting a bunch of 33s and re casting my auras on them
i have greater good in my 12/12 dinosaurs deck. it just wins me so many games
Squee is Sinister Serpent from Yugioh lol
Canoptek Swarm is amazing in gyruda
I absolutely love your videos, dude keep it going!
Are there any mono white cards that could make this list?
Sinister Concierge on Ashad and Anhelo is bonkers

I stil hope for some cards to get universes within versions. Scarab swarm would be awsome... Such a good card😮
Xathrid Demon and Yargle
And just like that, started scoping out a Quintorius deck
7:32 - Question wouldn't your opponents loose 9 life if you give it +2/+0 then sacrifice it to then bring it back right?
Yep
Xathrid Demon might be really nice in my Juri deck...
we Love the Nabob
Squee 2028 Make America Goblin Again lol
Death of a thousand stings, is very similar to squee (I know it is worse) but in some decks I think it is really good, and a very funny card cause it seems soooo horrible
Crafty cutpurse and the hunted cycle creatures 😮
The hardest part about squee in mono red is finding him. Do you want to waste your goblin tutor on him?
Gamble!
Squee, Goblin Nabob and Fauna Shaman for repeatable creature tutors. Easy peasy.
