1;30h?!❤ I work on a night shift on a nursery home for the elder and I use your videos to keep me awake during the numerous rounds of vigilance. Gonna save this for tonight, thanks
@@davestier6247 haha english is not my first language so I just wrote it in the same way as it would be in spanish (rounds of vigilance= rondas de vigilancia)
At 15:14 you could have attacked invasion of zendikar and when it transformed it is exiled and cast, which means the creature would enter the battlefield, procing mammoths ability, allowing you to fight muldrotha and kill it, or muldrotha blocks and you kill it and cast invasion as well, either way muldrotha would have died, preventing all the shenanigans that happened afterwards.
The best moments in MTGA are right after an insanely explosive turn and seeing the opponent just pause, read the cards, double-check they didn't accidentally queue into the "No Bans Historic" event, and then concede. This deck makes opponents do that. That is why I play this deck.
Xenagos was one of the first commanders i built around for the paper format, glad he was added to arena. Happy to see Ilharg, Quartzwood Crasher, and Moraug as well- ive found all 3 to be excellent with Xenagos
What’s so great about this deck and this video is that lvd got to cast each of those dream big creatures one by one in each chapter, as if he called and multiple helpers showed up like terror of the peaks, bale fire dragon, hog king…. Oh man they were all driven by the god of revel and tore your enemy up😢😢 a great sight to look upon indeed. Never could have brought them all together in one deck, absolute destroyer at its finest 😂
At 15:06 if you had attacked Invasion of Zendikar then Awakened Skyclave entering the battlefield would've triggered Thorn Mammoth allowing you to fight Muldrotha with the 12/11 Thorn Mammoth.
A 1h30 video is such a treat! I can't help myself though, at 15:15 another upside of attacking the battle is that, as it flips to a creature, mammoth would trigger and you could fight Muldrotha. In the end it didn't matter, but interesting to consider the versatility of the battle cards.
Excellent video. I noticed you never fetched nonbasic forest off Vorinclex, which could matter in some spots, for example at 43:10 to keep up Lightning Bolt.
Just made a Darigaaz Deck I call "Hasty Dragons with golgari removal" and bro that thing slaps!! I grew up a jund junkie and this hits the spot so hard for me ❤ Thanks for the inspiration! (Sorry to all my opponents that I cast casualties on lol) 😅
Mono black is probably the best matchup for this deck since the only real answear to Xenagos they have is Invoke Despair unless I'm forgetting about another edict/exile effect for enchantments.
Mmm I love that card, he was in the 99 of some of my favorite commander decks, Atla Palani, and I have him in my Minsc and Boo deck now, after years of soul searching I think I am a gruul card.
In the last game, if had boosted the Peaks then Swung, he'd been able to trample past the titan, dealing 5 damage and having a second attack phase with a 13/12 Peak that'll double into a 27/25 peaks. Either way a fantastic video
In the game against frodo, you probably had an extra turn to win, since frodo wins if you’re already tempted 4 times when he does the damage. And leveling him up would have spent almost his whole mana. He would have needed a land and a 1 mana cost tempting effect, which i dont know if there is in orzhov.

At 8:40 Selvala seems like the much higher upside play: you can untap and play Vorinclex, drawing a card off of Selvala and finding some forests, then play one and activate Selvala for 6 mana, casting Xenagos and even Blizzard Brawl, killing their strongest thing and attacking for 14 trample damage, with them drawing a card being an acceptable downside. Although it of course doesn't matter too much if they just kill it, but there could be a world where they let her live so they can draw. Also at 14:10 it seems better to play Explore, Selvala, and Leafkin, let them tap out to draw a card with Muldrotha, then play Thorn Mammoth and use Selvala to play Xenagos as well. But I am very much a sucker for Selvala value, and it's not like the end result would have changed in either situation.
@LegenVD that's strange. I noticed in game 1 or 2 that you went for a land and didn't need the mana that turn. Would have been the perfect time for it. But I guess since it's a tapped land people avoid it in 1v1. I run it in my decks, but I play commander, so it's OK to go a bit slower.
You know LVD likes a deck when the video is this juicy long
He revelled in it.
My thoughts exactly. Difficult to get off the pain train.
I'd build this deck in a heartbeat if only there was a ranked brawl
I really appreciate how clearly you label the chapters
Someone suggested it in the comments, so I've been doing it for Brawl!

Haha, I usually get people falling asleep to them so this is a nice change of pace.
Having Vigilance as your keyword when taking care of the elderly provides a lot of value ❤
@@davestier6247 haha english is not my first language so I just wrote it in the same way as it would be in spanish (rounds of vigilance= rondas de vigilancia)
@Indie4evar it worked out perfectly my friend, you are great ❤️
@@LegenVDyour voice is soothing. My wife says the same about mine. She always falling asleep while I’m talking.
This could be my favourite LVD deck of all time & I have been a viewer for many years.
"Opponent's in shock. They can't believe what just happened"

Definitely would've gone for it had I spotted Chupacabra!
Though the opponent wouldn’t end up as shocked.
As a EDH Muldrotha player you never let that player untap with Muldrotha or you lose.
@@Mattress1996 The same could be said of a hundred other commanders

Hopefully we see Malignus in some Historic Anthology lol, I loved doing OHKOs with it
Malignus is hilarious. Though I find Hateflayer to be underrepresented in Xenagos decks.
this is the timmiest Timmy deck that ever timmied.
I'm here for it 😂
Oh yes! Extra long LegenVD content! This is excellent to come home to after a trip across the country!
Xenagos speaks to my Timmy heart. LOVE THIS CARD!
Absolute banger of a gruul smashfest. I will never recover from realizing that the plural of Slimefoot is Slimefeet
"you know the opponent is in shock, cant blame them"
Love it haha
this deck should be called "Call an ambulance, but not for me"
What’s so great about this deck and this video is that lvd got to cast each of those dream big creatures one by one in each chapter, as if he called and multiple helpers showed up like terror of the peaks, bale fire dragon, hog king….

dude beat the brakes off everyone with this deck. what a heater!
so many brutal words in the big creatures description, I like it!
Awesome work. Appreciate all the content. Incredible deck and great set of games, thanks for the hour and a half of solid entertainment.
Last opponent gave a GG around 1:15:10, just to be annihilated 10 mins later.
and LVD is way too classy to make a song & dance about it. He saw it, he knew we would see it, didnt need to mention it. Love it.
Man I love your videos. Thank you for what you do!
Gotta love the salty scoops. That worldbreaker steal was amazing 😂
YOOOOOO this video has so much content! Xenagos is such a strong commander! Thank you Luca! Youre the best!!!!!!
I could whatch this for hours!
You can!
Love watching your videos and listening to your thought process. Keep up the great work brother!
I appreciate that!
Gruul is so powerful that you have about 15 chapters on this episode! I love it!
Instant love for any video with Moraug's goofy animation in it
General Kudro too!
Really appreciate this long content LVD 😁

45:10 Whoa, hold your horses, Legend.
😅
You're really spoling us with this! Always appreciate your videos. Helps me get through the day.
My pleasure!
I was confused by the thumbnail...then I saw Game 1. Cleanup on aisle 7. Dead Kethis player!
I will make it my life goal to teach the alien's about magic
Excellent video. I noticed you never fetched nonbasic forest off Vorinclex, which could matter in some spots, for example at 43:10 to keep up Lightning Bolt.
You did WHAT to frodo lol good match for that
11:03 Sometimes it helps to just draw the perfect card for the situation 😊
Wow thanks this is all I’m queuing in to 😂
Just made a Darigaaz Deck I call "Hasty Dragons with golgari removal" and bro that thing slaps!!
I grew up a jund junkie and this hits the spot so hard for me ❤ Thanks for the inspiration!
(Sorry to all my opponents that I cast casualties on lol) 😅
Man I love your videos so much thank you for being you :)
Glad you like them!
Say hello to my little drakuseth
One of my favourite commander Decks!!!
Messing up Atraxa certainly gets a like from me.
I was thinking the video continue until a lost but with the 🐐god, LVD just can't lose!
Whoa great games kinda wish it was a longer video xD
9/10 no Colossal Dreadmaw
Love the thumbnail! 💯
One and a half our? This gotta be a dream
Really nice video man
this kinda looks like my decklist :) i love it

Xenagos, God of Revels will be the summer blockbuster in Arena Brawl
I love when they think they got you with a board wipe but then you hit them with a haste creature to take the win 😂
Spicy thumbnail.😊
thanks for the content Legend!!! ^_^
In the game against frodo, you probably had an extra turn to win, since frodo wins if you’re already tempted 4 times when he does the damage. And leveling him up would have spent almost his whole mana. He would have needed a land and a 1 mana cost tempting effect, which i dont know if there is in orzhov.
Feel like we have an entry for "Things heard out of context" at 45:13 😮

Mr. LVD what to do if I want more content but caught up with all your relevant (and a few of the REALLY old) videos? Do you stream?
He can watched twice.
Jeez, these are not long matches. I guess people don't like being on the wrong end of the Xenagos beatstick
I was Xenagos for Halloween once.
I love this deck! Any chance you'd wanna jam a few games?

First! Gruul smash!
15:16 Since you know they have Ravenous Chupacabra in the graveyard you can hit Invasion to fight Muldrotha
Definitely would've gone for it had I spotted Chupacabra!
GRUUL GRUUL GRUUL
Yussss extra long vid 👌
I know this is an old video, but did you not have the Kaldheim red green snow land to get with Into the North?
Don't see Highland Forest in the decklist.

Wins against Atraxa give me life
38:47 I hope palladium myr was not offended.
"We can touch Frodo." xD
no garruks uprising?
It’s an option, but most big boys already have a form of evasion and it’s a little slow at drawing cards.
fun gruul
Hey X
Let’s see how the deck DOSS
🖤❤💛
Ummm.... 45:13... LVD that's a little sus
Too bad no Godo Bandit Warlord for the funny one shot kill
45:13 that sounded so wrong lmao
You gonna touch frodo?
We can touch Frodo... That doesn't sound right.😅
Double it and give it to the next person!
