Nice video. You had a misplay early in game 1 that might have helped significantly. @1:43, you floated mana from the Saga, fetched an Amulet, and then sac'd Gardens when you played Lotus Field. Instead, you could have used the 1 mana to turn the Gardens into a second Amulet; since it's now an artifact you don't have to sac' it to Lotus Field. You would have had 6 mana that turn to still play Beseech and you would have had 2 Amulets for the rest of the game. That would give you 3 additional mana @4:50, which you could use to get a Citadel instead. If you care, I'll share the analysis I did there, but I think it gives you about 20% chance to win that turn.
i wish we had just a bit more gameplay, even if we saw what the deck could do, I would've liked to see more of it and at least one more game where it wins with faith's reward. I did prefer the old format where you'd just show a bunch of games from a league.
Eggs is pretty cool as far as a non-deterministic combo, but the absolute king of kings is Four Horsemen....which relies on getting six specific cards (Sharuum the Hegemon, Blasting Station, Dread Return, and 3x Narcomoebas milled off the top) into your graveyard and then trying to shuffle them in a loop with Emerakul back to the top of your library. The deck _technically_ isn't banned in Legacy...but on the Legacy flow chart of "What deck do you want to play?" Four Horseman is listed under "Because I hate things -> Who do you hate most? -> Judges."
Fun fact! If Blood Moon or Magus of the Moon is on the field, Lotus Field, Guildless Commons and other bounce lands, enter the battlefield as a mountain. So should the stax piece be removed from play your mana goes up significantly as you didn't have to actually sacrifice or return any lands because they entered as mountains. Fun little trick i did in a five color deck where i made sure to cast either stax piece within the first four turns of the game, and then started dropping however of my eleven bounce lands on field. Then once i felt "setup" i blew up my own Blood Moon/Magus and proceeded to do the "big game play(s)."
There's a deck in Explorer/Pioneer that abuses Lotus Field by using Strict Proctor. It's really dumb because it's like you get to play Mishra's Workshop and Phyrexian Revokers that name every card in your opponent's deck lol.
The fact that the opponent was on 9 nonland permanents was so terrifying, I was counting them as you were going for your play like "oh no is this going to terribly" but he was 1 short
The math for 10:40? tap lotus (3) -1 amulet -2 reshape amulet for bloom (0) bloom (3) -2 reshape ring for bloom (B) bloom (BWWW) faiths reward for Ring + 2 bloom (0) sac 2 bloom, tap 2nd lotus field (9) cast bobble (8) reshape for 6 citadel is live with land drop available so first land from citadel doesn't brick it Also gained 6! from reserveroir putting you at 31 hp
This deck honestly didn't look very competitive to me, it just looks a bit clunky and didn't seem to be capable of really fast wins. The lotus field plan also makes it harder to try for a second combo turn.
As soon as I saw these lists resurface I was wondering why they weren't using aetherflux. It's perfect for this deck and you only need one as an alt wincon.
I think you missed the point on people questioning the power of decks in your videos. You could show a successful league not by the quality of the deck, but by the quantity of the leagues. Basically if people are going to doubt because there is always something that could have been done to distort the result, so don't worry about them.
this deck is just worse than regular eggs, cutting eggs to run amulets, ring, and aetherflux just reduces consistency. Getting rid of ghost quarter for lotus field isnt great either
Do you think Rakdos Scam is a problem in Modern?
Yes
yeah, modern horizons 2 is a problem in modern
At least watching your videos, it's always scam.
Yes
Grief grants such a poor gameplay

Day 31 of asking Harry to OBLITERATE Modern with a Fungus/Saproling deck
trying to get 3 spore counters while your opponent plays Fury has to feel like absolute crap
@@vooshPOWthat’s why it’s funny
Keep it up king 👑
Good luck, 113 likes. 4 comments. Please notice Harry
Sprout swarm + intruder alarm?
10:35 Technically, you can get Bolas' Citadel... if you sacrifice the One Ring... and the Reservoir. Which, granted, is a terrible idea. But you can.
The metagame so bad, that it inadvertantly resurrected Eggs.

R.I.P. Second Sunrise. The king of non-deterministic combos.

1:55 That's my new favorite magic card! "Beseech the Beer!!"
Never thought I would see Eggs make a comeback without Second Sunrise
I guess beseech as 4 more chances at faiths reward is good enough
Oh no... it's back.. Faith's reward Cheerios is back...
This deck NEEDS to be called Second Breakfast
No, the infinite combo using samwise NEEDS to be called second breakfast.
@@Atmapalazzo Why? That was Merry and Pippin.

Brooo I just checked your channel for a new video an hour ago, hell yeah.
I made a modern legal version of eggs three years ago scheming symmetry is the second sunrise replacement.
not what I expected, I appreciated the gameplay!
The fact that the opponent was on 9 nonland permanents was so terrifying, I was counting them as you were going for your play like "oh no is this going to terribly" but he was 1 short
11:14 your opponent is the beast!
I'd absolutely love to see more if this deck! Amazing vid as always
The math for 10:40?
tap lotus (3) -1 amulet -2 reshape amulet for bloom (0)
bloom (3) -2 reshape ring for bloom (B)
bloom (BWWW) faiths reward for Ring + 2 bloom (0)
sac 2 bloom, tap 2nd lotus field (9)
cast bobble (8) reshape for 6 citadel is live with land drop available so first land from citadel doesn't brick it
Also gained 6! from reserveroir putting you at 31 hp
faith's reward does nothing here due to opponent having leyline of the void :(
@@Flipideedoo thanks

I'd love to see a longer video!
Yeah I'm not convinced on the whole amulet of vigor with lotus bloom plan.
Never thought I'd see the return of eggs
That last turn was brilliant!!
Oh man, I love eggs. Is eggs back? Is this deck actually competitive?
Also you should always bauble back in the faiths rewards when you want to comb9
Wow how I miss eggs combo. Beseech the mirror is the real deal. I like the Reservoir plan as well.
Great example of why FFing when things are looking bad is a terrible idea- incredible comeback!
Cool deck, feels unique in the current meta (but there used to be more like this kicking around, didn't there?)
Back when Krark Clan Ironworks was legal this was a really fun combo deck, though it was still very neiche
Unique-ish. Spike played it a couple days ago. Course, this is the never ending story.
What a wild set! Thanks for these videos!
cool deck, this one was nice
As soon as I saw these lists resurface I was wondering why they weren't using aetherflux. It's perfect for this deck and you only need one as an alt wincon.
can we get some more games with this deck?
This is literally just second sunrise, but at 1 more mana.
And it only works for you
faith's reward was printed 10 years ago, beseech the mirror is the new tech
Why didn’t the opponent activate Bolas‘ in response to Reservoire? Am I missing something?
Not enough nonland permanents
i think your opponent missed lethal lol. They could have activated the citadel in response right?
No, count number of non-land permanents.
Has it really been 10 years? Jeez...

I would need a LOT of practice to pilot this deck correctly lol
Ah some classic eggs.
If he kept his void walker like he should’ve then that would’ve been a different game
Am I crazy or did the opponent miss lethal by not popping citadel in response to the aetherflux activation for kill?
10 non land permanents! Unless they had 10 of those pretty sure they couldn’t do much
@@HarryMTG oh right, i keep forgetting it's nonland. bet! Sick combo
Should play the non lotus field version, it's a lot better
do you have a decklist?
My favorite pro tour ever stanislav cifka is a goat
this deck is just worse than regular eggs, cutting eggs to run amulets, ring, and aetherflux just reduces consistency. Getting rid of ghost quarter for lotus field isnt great either
I really don't think you need aetherflux. Citadel should be more than enough
this guy seems to be really smart
Can we see more pauper gameplay
not the spike list :(
THE SPICE
Eggs!
What's the big deal I've had a turn two modern deck for years
damn scam player punted harddd
so you beat a scam player because they were really really bad and make poor decisions at every point in the game, ok
So, thus, feels wrong😅
A revived combo that shouldn't be revived. 😂
Day 14 of asking for inset scam
Now where taking !! So love the non face , but now we need to get you to arena format , I can’t stand watching is out of date bs thing
Arena is more expensive, less competitive, and doesn't have basically any of the formats he plays, so it seems unlikely.
Great video, as always, you dont have any plans to start doing Arena videos?
