@@Bluecho4 Sure. That's why the current tier-1 decks in Standard are: Monowhite, Monored, Boros Cycling, or otherwise have white (Naya), black (Sultai), or red (Naya, Temur) in them.
to the deck's credit, it's probably the first historic deck i can build with a minimal dent to my wildcards. however, i would love to know which genius at wizards came up with the idea to print a recursive land destruction spell that you can cast on turn 3.
to be fair gemrazer effect can be repeated, if you are playing artifact/chanment heavy deck and dont have removal at hand it is a lost cause . What you expect them to do? play more artifact for the razer to blow up?
I’m guessing some of them were playing one of the artefact heavy decks without any interaction and knew that anything they played would just be destroyed the following turn. But yeah, some real early concessions for not a lot of reason. If he’s in unranked then I guess people don’t have an incentive to play the game out and just concede when they fall behind.
WotC 2010: We want to make sure Simic is flavourful without being overpowered. WotC 2020: So, we fed Simic the whole colour pie... (land destruction + removal of downside) I want to make this deck, looks like fun.
There's no land destruction in these cards. If one creatively uses those abilities as land destruction, it doesn't mean they're designed for it. Sawtooth Demolisher takes classic green Commander staple Beast Within and puts a mutate spin on it. And it's also a card that was meant to be played in Commander (or Vintage and Legacy, which totally don't care about it). Direct your complaints to whoever decides that Commander cards (so Vintage-level cards) are okay for Historic.
Lots of MTG content creators expressed quite a disappointment versus the latest Historic Anthology but since its release you showcased several decks proving that is by no means less powerful than the previous ones. It does not need macho Ulamogs for that although is has Marit Lage. Thank you very much and many thanks to your Patreons for all this !
May i ask if we can submit cresceno-rich cassical music for the intros to you? Regardless of answe i want to add that this Intro was very statisfiying, superb editing!
I don't think I've laughed so many times watching one of these videos as I did today. I could feel the defeat as the opponents paused & came to the realization of what foolery was about to unfold lol
The problem is this land destruction is repeatable with low mana cost, like mutating it with octopus by a single blue. Good job WoTC. And amazing new intro LVD!
Um...That's good because it shouldn't surprise you. Green has been rockin' LD since Alpha. Ice Storm, Acidic Slime, Creeping Mold, Mwonvuli Acid-Moss, Desecration Plague, Feast of Worms, Rain of Thorns, Reap and Sow, Reclaiming Vines, Rolling Spoil and Winter's Grasp for outright direct LD and spells such as Plow Under for land denial green has always carried a minor LD subtheme.
Jeez the first game was even more brutal than the intro implies. I went from 'oh sweet this'll be a fun idea' to 'hmm I don't know if this is OK actually' 🤔😅 there's aggro, control, and then there's uninstall
I played against some weird Gruul variant of this deck. But at the end, the combo of my fliers, Heliod, and Soul Warden caused me to win (was using Heliod company).
As a commander card, its fine. Its a 1 of in a 100 card deck and gets answered quickly. However, putting commander cards in historic is just dumb. Hopefully this trend does not continue.
The amount of people acting like land destruction in green is new saddens my Acidic Slime.... Anyway, awesome deck and video as always LVD, glad the intros are back as well.
I'm surprised by how many people are discovering land destruction is a Green ability O__O It's always been Red/Green with a splash of Black, nothing has changed.
As a connoiseur of LVD opening hand assessments, I appreciated "reasonable-ish" in Game 3.
In this video: multiple opponents screaming at their screens and mashing the Concede button.
LVD intros are never too much, never too little. They are just perfect.
Yeah, perfect song choice every time
Perfect comment
It's elegant as his voice is.
exactly
Perfectly perfect !
The bombastic beginnings always make me smile. Great way to start a weekend, wouldn't want it any other way!
"But that seems cowardly"
This man really earns the Legend part of his name every video!
Opponents scooped so fast you'd think it was an ice cream parlour
😂
Music intro ✓
Mutate ✓
Land hate ✓
Fblthp ✗
9/10
Dad level puns x
Lol I love the opponent conceding and you just keep explaining the play you'd make without missing a beat.
Ah, yes, Land Destruction--a hallmark Green-Blue style of deck.
Another step in WotC's long term plan to remove every color from Magic except Blue and Green.
The color pie is just the man trying to keep you down. Fight the machine!
Anyone ever wonder why these decks work?
Because lvd play's them
Except not a single text on those cards says "destroy target land".
@@Bluecho4 Sure. That's why the current tier-1 decks in Standard are: Monowhite, Monored, Boros Cycling, or otherwise have white (Naya), black (Sultai), or red (Naya, Temur) in them.
Intro format shortened is appreciated, I can kind of see why people like them now
Yes, this is a good one!
I missed these openings. Too fun
to the deck's credit, it's probably the first historic deck i can build with a minimal dent to my wildcards. however, i would love to know which genius at wizards came up with the idea to print a recursive land destruction spell that you can cast on turn 3.
Might get banned soon...
"So here's this land destruction deck..."
"Oh, a red deck?"
"No..."
It wouldn’t be Simic if it couldn’t do everything!
Greens always had land destruction. Its nothing new.
I'd be more surprised if blue had land destruction
@@jamesharbor4893 I've got a plainswalker to introduce you to! He EXILES lands. Lol
This deck has no mercy, and I love it.
"I don't know of many decks that can win without any lands in play" : LVD 2021
Mmm godo or teshar comes to mind, but you need some setup
Great great great opening! Didn’t provide any spoilers and showed the point of the deck perfectly
Now THIS is how you introduce a wacky land destruction deck!!!
It aint wacky at all. It's real and might be the best deck of the format.
@@antischtick3502 Yeah i commented that before watching the video. It has real potential.
These Intro's just keep getting better
The amount of people that just scoop to a turn 4 artifact/enchantment removal is astounding.
Land destruction is the most boring deck to play against. Even esper control is more fun...
@@TheDambia yeah, Ugin is super fun to play against too...
to be fair gemrazer effect can be repeated, if you are playing artifact/chanment heavy deck and dont have removal at hand it is a lost cause . What you expect them to do? play more artifact for the razer to blow up?
@@TheOuroboros84 rather ugin then land destruction, cause at least then you get the chance to develop your board...
One of the best recent intros. Nice work. Love it.
Glad you like it!
Big yeah for intro, short and a perfect preview
THE OPENING IS SOOOOOOOO GOOD
Love love loooove the intro!😂 the deck is killer too. Having a blast with it. Thanks!
Bro! Pumping them out like a boss! I haven’t even finished the last two. Keep em coming!
that intro was amazing.
Musical land destruction? Gotta love that!
Loved the intro for this one
that intro comp combined with your usual intro felt smooth like butter, also hilarious how much destruction this boar does
I've been running a Selesnya version with Adanto Vanguard and Adorned Pouncer, but your decks are always the best!
Interesting how so many just scooped to a gemrazer of all things
I’m guessing some of them were playing one of the artefact heavy decks without any interaction and knew that anything they played would just be destroyed the following turn.

I gave this vid a thumbs up just for that intro alone!
Land destruction is so amazing. Usually never works, but this deck looks so much fun!

I tried it. Just be prepared to get smashed by any meta deck.
Always love your left-field decks!
That was an elk of a good intro.
Definitely one of the best intros yet.
Keep it up @Legenvd

I‘m just on the Intro and gave it a like :)
Perfect music + destruction combo
My first *serious* deck was a standard mutate deck. I'll definitely try this fun take on it, looking forward to seeing all the explosions lol
Fun? I don't think your opponents will agree 😂
I personally didn't mind the spoiler intros but this is great too, keep them coming!
Totally Forgot that card was in the anthology! Going to build this one right now. Thanks!
Best Intro Ever !!!
Thank you.
May i ask if we can submit cresceno-rich cassical music for the intros to you?
Regardless of answe i want to add that this Intro was very statisfiying, superb editing!
I'm limited to the UA-cam audio library.
Amazing intro on this one 😁
OK, now I have my fourth land destruction deck in historic lol.
Great intro!!!
"Don't know of many decks that can win without any lands in play."
Just mercyless.
Land destruction and mutate. Two of my favorite things.
This seems like a pretty budget way to make your opponents cry in historic. Cool stuff.
I don't think I've laughed so many times watching one of these videos as I did today.
I could feel the defeat as the opponents paused & came to the realization of what foolery was about to unfold lol
The problem is this land destruction is repeatable with low mana cost, like mutating it with octopus by a single blue. Good job WoTC. And amazing new intro LVD!
Glorious intro!
The level of salt scoops here could replace the lands you destroy. Great deck!
THE INTROS ARE BACK
I love those 3 minute games. Turn 4: And our opponent explodes, he knows whats going to happen :)
what a brutal and fun (for the player) deck
This is so dirty jeez, I love it
At this point it dosent surprise me that green gets land destruction lol
I dream of the day Armageddon is reprinted 🤪
beast within type effects are rarely printed in green in standard sets anyway
Um...That's good because it shouldn't surprise you. Green has been rockin' LD since Alpha. Ice Storm, Acidic Slime, Creeping Mold, Mwonvuli Acid-Moss, Desecration Plague, Feast of Worms, Rain of Thorns, Reap and Sow, Reclaiming Vines, Rolling Spoil and Winter's Grasp for outright direct LD and spells such as Plow Under for land denial green has always carried a minor LD subtheme.
green has had land destruction since the game began with winters grasp and ice storm wdym
Best intro yet!
Hey! Can you do an updated Feather deck?
A green 4-mana 6/6 with land destruction. Repeatable land destruction, at that. That's an interesting design choice by MTG, haha.
That you can play in a deck that REDUCES its cost...
a lot of short games today, lots of scoops. Land destruction is brutal, love it
Love the intro well done
Beautiful intro...just beautiful.
That was the perfect intro :)
This is an awesome deck idea!
I play against that deck today on shake up event part 2...
I Win with a mono black deathtouch deck...
Very good game play thank you lvd
I loved the intro
Awesome intro!!
Love this deck
8 cents per video... wow.... You are a hard worker!
Intros are back, baby!
Damn
Those were some quick matches
Love the intro
Damn... what a brutal unforgiving deck. But, well, Legend was a little fortunate here cause there was almost no opp deck with early creature removal.
Best intro yet
nice in rl game, with isochron scepter unsummon added
This deck was so efficient
Great Intro!
Jeez the first game was even more brutal than the intro implies. I went from 'oh sweet this'll be a fun idea' to 'hmm I don't know if this is OK actually' 🤔😅 there's aggro, control, and then there's uninstall

Who the hell thought land destruction on a mutate creature in green was a good idea?!
Anyway, a solid deck as always, LVD.
As a commander card, its fine. Its a 1 of in a 100 card deck and gets answered quickly. However, putting commander cards in historic is just dumb. Hopefully this trend does not continue.
14:39 where did diesel get that awesome damnation sleeve?
The amount of people acting like land destruction in green is new saddens my Acidic Slime....
Anyway, awesome deck and video as always LVD, glad the intros are back as well.
intros are back!
Best intro ever!
Intensely just talking through the best course of play even though 25 seconds ago the opponent scooped in despair. #JustLVDthings
Savage
Awesome intro!
Yay, mini intros returns!
That intro 😍😍😍
LVD, lately you're specializing in decks that REALLY annoy the opponent lol! Nothing worse than killing my lands!
This is good.I approve.
Greens always had land destruction guys, it's nothing new for the color. And blues also had landhate in a sense in the past with land bounce spells.
Your comment made me think, are there actually any decks in any of the other formats like vintage that can win with no lands?
Dredge decks or decks that use Guides to cheat out mana I guess
Yay, classical intros are back.
I'm surprised by how many people are discovering land destruction is a Green ability O__O It's always been Red/Green with a splash of Black, nothing has changed.
epic intro
Wow LVD I was playing your City Crash and I already faced this deck Lol
Yeah, that was me. Took it for a test run yesterday.
@@LegenVD Ggz then. Our matches were cool and made me consider maindecking lavacoils for all the 3-4 toughness running around.
Please make videos, that have this music for the whole video. It's perfect.
I would also echo a little quiet music that differs from the default magic music would be nice.
