29:20 Cabal therapy's hand reveal double-counts the nantuko because it can be cast in two different ways. It's the same bug that doubles up cards with adventure (e.g. brazen borrower).
8:38 i understand that backseating is annoying and i do apologize, but in this spot wouldn't it be better to cast therapy with underground sea, check for force or daze (in this case daze because its just as good as force but trades 1:1 rather than 2:1), cast rector with the rest of the lands and flashback therapy sac-ing rector? That way you presumably take the remaining card and also get the walker in the main phase to be able to activate immediately, all while still having force pitch strix up.
Yes I really didn't get why this line wasn't taken as it was a sure win. No point in wanting to sac Rector to Tower as you can just as well use a land for Therapy as sac outlet while having the benefit of extra protection
The number of times massive planeswalkers got cast this league is shockingly high... and I'm here for it! I'm sick in bed and my wife just said "you don't sound sick" at the sound of me cackling as Bolas resolved.
I came to ask why not go full Nic Fit haha. Replace cantrips with Deadly Dispute. Play 6 mana Wandering Emperor as a wrath. Between Altar, Deadly Dispute and Veteran Explorer for ramp, hard cast Emperor is very reasonable. And ramp into Rector is good too
@@derekcline950 I played with both decks, and this one feels much better. Traditional Nic fit loses too often for most combo decks, while this esper deck has a decent mid range plan, survives combos well (force + therapy) and can go over the top of tempo decks.
Mardu low curve token deck is the best "cat therapy" is superior. Playing: staff of the story teller, bowmaster, ajani, & fable as token makers. Deck plays an urza's saga package with vexing bauble. Thoughtseize, wasteland, and plows for control. Broadside is the additional red card for ajani as it's another way to sack tokens.
1:01:19 What’s the interaction with graveyard hate and arena rector? Can you crack a spell bomb to remove rector before the trigger resolves? I didn’t know that if true.
Yes. The death creates a trigger that allows you to exile it for the effect. If there’s no rector to exile when the trigger resolves, you can’t meet the requirement.
I wonder whether playing wacky brews every other league makes your leagues on more classic control stronger because opponents might recognize your name but they can't be sure what you're playing...
'You are already dead' is a great name with Cabal Therapy :)

I'm a fan of "Ornery Tumblewagg".
"Witness the end" is my go-to, although "Saddleback Lagac" is also satisfying to say.

That’s mega annoying but makes sense. Thanks!
whoa that is a big brained bug
1:18:40 Ajani's ult always felt really weird from a design perspective on a go-wide token-centric card, but I finally got the joke. CATaclysm.

Yeah that may have been better.

Wow! So cool to see BoshNRoll playing with A Johnny in his deck.
Just the one Johnny!
HARD CAST NICOL BOLAS PLANESWALKER IN LEGACY
"'Cat'aclysm...I see you Carmen Handy, you did this" lol
Thanks, Brian, that was a cool take and the run was very fun!
It only makes sense for the Rector to own a cat
Seems to be some catnip in my bosh pack
that first matchup was so funny cuz your opponent always had the answer i literally dont get how lucky he was
What a title. Rolls off the tongue.
This was a really fun one even if the deck hit its usual pitfalls
arena wrecked her - oof you can say that again
Arena Rector? I don't even know her!
Nic fit? I'm an addict.

great matches in this vid, instant bosh classic
As vehemently as I hate that we’re getting a Spider-Man set, I am deeply excited to Cabal Therapy naming, like, Mask of the Green Goblin or something
“I don’t see how that’s my problem”
Since the Foundations video went live, I always hear "a Johnny" instead of Ajani. Or Jazal.
Round 3 was phenominal!! What a game.
Day 4: Commenting until we get the Island and Ponder artwork tier lists!
Sir, this is a Wendy's
This deck should be called phelinotherapy. And yes - it really exists

Cool! Over the years, you’ve definitely helped me understand a lot of the finer points of magic! 👍🏻

Time for some heavy petting with BoshNRoll! #1945called
Did anyone know where i can get the list frome Game three ? It Looks amazing
One with Nothing is a kinda funny name with Therapy vs a hellbent opponent. In an ironic kinda way. Lol

Hello!
Hello!
No Frog?
ajani kinda needs red permanents to be worth imo
I cant wait until froggy gets banned next month
Rector? I barely knew her.
cat pack meow meow meow meow meow meow
Is there really a world where strix is ever better than frog in this deck?
How often do you want to sacrifice Frog to cabal therapy? How much do you care about incidental Frog damage if you’re building towards Ugin/Bolas?
Ooooh one of my favorite flavors of salt. Pontificating about how a card is currently not good while getting your shit pushed in by it. Yum.
