As my grand journey ends. I find I am left wondering, wondering what type of comment shall I leave CGB. In my heart I know there is only one answer. There is no weakness in this dojo sensei.
This is the cgb I missed. Goofy, good play, fun decks. Dont know what happened but you turned after your Bo3 tournament and its been awesome man. Love the content!
If I can make a small suggestion, you could run Zirda, the Dawnwaker as your companion in this deck. It'd be easier to cast and would actually synergize somewhat with the cards. You could draw for free using tome or cycle a shark for 2 less or activate clock for a single blue.
Sounds good! does Zirda allow shark typhoon though? like does cycling count as an activated ability? even if its on the battlefield or does that not matter?
Yep cycling counts! Early on in Ikoria, the cycling decks played Zirda as a companion instead of Lurrus. The wording on Zirda applies to all activated abilities you control and not just the ones on the battlefield (and cycling is considered an "activated ability" just from your hand instead of the battlefield)
@@vioussy Ugin is so good that if your deck is playing the long game, you kinda have to justify not playing, not the other way round. Even without ramp
playing this deck reminds me of the good old magic fun, where you actually have to think while playing, analyzing, being patient, magic at its best compared to Rogue , miller and Red Aggro nonsense, thanks CGB, this deck is really fun to play
Yeah inget this too in Bo1. Built a black control/midrange and all I meet is control decks. Will build a gruul Aggro today and see how many rogues decks and mirrors I can meet.
I know these decks are made for content- but does this deck have any standing over a similar control U/B list? It feels like each of the 'damage target creature/plainswalker' effect could be replaced with a similar 'destroy' effect from black and have better removal. It doesn't feel like red is doing much in this deck. Edit: I watched to the end and you said basically exactly this. Thanks for the great videos CGB
I'm old enough to remember blowing games wide open with Sphinx's Revelation. Similar to how Seat Gate is now imo. (although you couldnt play sphinxs rev as a land..)
With most recent update you play mirror matches 9 out of 10 games; I play mill and I was able to modify my deck to not play any removals at all because I know I won't be playing against anything but mill
Before I come in I was expecting the whole video is just one control mirror match where you win by triggering the clock and the opponent deck himself lol.
This deck actually works well as long as you are patient. Although it struggles against Gruul. But it is helping me climb. Can do well against Rakdos. Is interesting against Rogues. From the games I came across. But I didn't have enough rare wild cards so I had to go with 2 Ugin.
in the last game you showed us, you finally ran the Shark Typhoon out to protect the Midnight Clock against ECD but you played the Midnight Clock first, depriving yourself of a 3/3 and I wish you had run out the Shark Typhoon into ECD in two other matchups. The only reason to keep the Shark Typhoon is if you value the cycle version more than a Midnight Clock. I'm not sure you should have or did, in those two games. From what you were saying, it seemed like you thought the Clock was more important but you weren't playing like it until the last game.
Do some silliness with Ancient Greenwarden, lotus cobras, Ashaya and Valakut exploration. Then throw some ruin crabs or fling a bush elemental at them or some shit, idc.
Maybe I just misplay things, but man it really aggravates me when you roil instead of just countering the thing first. I mean he taps out to cast the artifact and you roil instead of just negating it.
36:41 "if anything in magic is fun" is a big relatable in this current meta it seems. or i forgot how to be good versus all the yorion fun my opponents have
It's a bad idea, but you can theoretically get a truly endless game if you play midnight clock with fae of wishes to get it back from exile. There's no reason to do this, I just like the concept.
I'm pretty sure you can't wish for cards in exile, only from the sideboard. You can make your idea work with Karn the great creator, since the text of his -2 ability specifies it can also pull from exile.
@@Zael4237 I believe exiled cards count as outside the game, and so you can get them with granted. I'd have to check the exact wording of the rules though.
@@Joseph125 Exiled cards are still tracked within the game as being exiled. They are not removed from the game, and thus cannot not be wished for. Before "exile" existed as a keyword, wishes could pull "removed" cards back. This was one of the reasons why the "exile" mechanic was created, out of a perception that wishes made it too easy to get removed cards back, and thus devalued removing cards too much.
If i may give some feedback on your video's. i really love them but if the editor would supply us viewers with timestamps / chapters in the video besides the hidden ones in the text that would be even more amazing!! (and if he or she wants to earn bonus points, extend to per match chapters)
that first game where they concede as soon as you cast seagate restoration was so dumb. lol. you were going to have to shuffle all those cards away in 2 turns anyway, and were tapped out. it wasn't even a threatening play. probably not even a good play... i'm not sure why they conceded to it. haha
All my homies hate agro and rogues... all my homies also hate maindeck mystical dispute. You have to be a psychopath to main deck mystical dispute in b01

Thank you for the incentive to push past $10000 for extra life!
@@qwerty1271780 My pleasure.
👌
He knows what is coming...and yet...he comments again... Not all heroes wear capes my friend
Missed opportunity to name the deck "What time Izzet ?"
Genius
You forgot the most important thing about your companion. It lets you draw an extra card off See Gate Restoration.
Stefan Rabenstein plus discard fodder for say Kroxa
I love the idea of having a companion almost purely as a bluf
That's so cool
@@dracosfire7247 not until after they keep/muligin a hand.
@@dracosfire7247 it didn't help much. TBH the surprise factor might be more impactful
Eh, Kaheera isn't usually run in decks with creatures.
I used to run Yorion in my monored deck for the lulz. Didn't help much but it was fun seeing the confused card touching by my opponent. XD
This is the cgb I missed. Goofy, good play, fun decks.

Makes sense but keep in mind Zirda can't reduce costs to less than one
Ah good point, so no free draws then :(
Sounds good! does Zirda allow shark typhoon though? like does cycling count as an activated ability? even if its on the battlefield or does that not matter?
Yep cycling counts! Early on in Ikoria, the cycling decks played Zirda as a companion instead of Lurrus. The wording on Zirda applies to all activated abilities you control and not just the ones on the battlefield (and cycling is considered an "activated ability" just from your hand instead of the battlefield)
@@MobiusXVI yeah, then people realised that they could just run every cycle for 1 card and run Lurrus Instead
Love the Ugin with no ramp.
But the clock is a ramp
@@claudiogoesa Oh yeah oops. Very close to no ramp, but yeah true.
@@vioussy Ugin is so good that if your deck is playing the long game, you kinda have to justify not playing, not the other way round. Even without ramp
I clicked hoping to find Magic Mirror. That card is so funny
It's hard to keep on the board
Not if you play it turn 4-5 with backup
playing this deck reminds me of the good old magic fun, where you actually have to think while playing, analyzing, being patient, magic at its best compared to Rogue , miller and Red Aggro nonsense, thanks CGB, this deck is really fun to play
I was just trying to build an izzet control deck a few weeks ago but couldn’t make it work. This looks awesome!!
Nice long-sleeve in Izzet colours you're wearing - it's the details! :-)
What would he a good simic scute swarm deck you would recommend? I love scute swarm combo decks.
As an aggro player I really appreciate watching cgb to see how where control can get stuck
I like playing decks I hate so I can study how they lose. And that's how I ended up a monored fan...
Is valakut awakening not great in this deck? Around 25:50, you could dump all that removal to draw more cards.
" Hold onto your butts" - CGB at his best.
Hell yeah good to see Izzet again! ❤ loved this deck
So, an Izzet clock control deck.... I shall call it Clock Block
Ah, thats why I played against the midnight clock yesterday... I kept wondering what they are trying to do, but in the end just smashed them :D
Hey, is it possible to get to mythic in historic with 5 colour shrines?
Dade buttler finally did it folks
Edit totaly know huow to spell
Hm, but CGB didn't use teferis ageless insight and the magic mirror, or dream trawler
Dave?
sorry bro, the internet has decided your name is Dave now. Deal with it
Yeah inget this too in Bo1. Built a black control/midrange and all I meet is control decks. Will build a gruul Aggro today and see how many rogues decks and mirrors I can meet.
Great build, awesome gameplay- go big brain, nice hair
I know these decks are made for content- but does this deck have any standing over a similar control U/B list? It feels like each of the 'damage target creature/plainswalker' effect could be replaced with a similar 'destroy' effect from black and have better removal.
It doesn't feel like red is doing much in this deck.
Edit: I watched to the end and you said basically exactly this. Thanks for the great videos CGB
Ladies up in here tonight
No fighting
We got the refugees up in here (no fighting)
No fighting

CGB makes big sharks, and he cannot lie.

Did you play clock before typhoon to test for a counter in the last game?
nvm he was tapped im dumb
I think all the tap lands have definitely helped shift this meta
At this point, i like before u start the intro :)
Getting closer to Grixis Rogues Lol Red for Claim, Robber & what you Need Lol Some Ember Lovin
Before I come in I was expecting the whole video is just one control mirror match where you win by triggering the clock and the opponent deck himself lol.

no jeskai triome?
This deck was awesome! More creatureless nonsense pls! ^_^
I have a fun deck you should try. It's a Rielle discard deck it's really a fun deck that I grind mythic ez with it!
day 1 of asking cgb to play turbo fog
Never stop until it happens
He doesn't play Historic tho. I would love him to so I support this
Senpai noticed Dave Butler!
I have been doing well with Green black adventures. Almost back to mythic.
Do some silliness with Ancient Greenwarden, lotus cobras, Ashaya and Valakut exploration. Then throw some ruin crabs or fling a bush elemental at them or some shit, idc.
so want to see Ancient Greenwarden in play T_T He was so hyped up when he was previed, but he barely got any play
Oh I forgot nahiri's lithoforming. yeah it's too many cards in the combo but you do get to go through your whole deck.
@@ВолодимирМайко-п7р gets play in scute. Thats about it i think.
Greenwardwn and crab simic. Oh god
Love it!
Spoiler: He hard casts a shark typhoon
Nice new pet CGB, I assume you have mastery pass with 10 lvl plus. But have you used the promocode LevelUp for 2k exp?
Midnight Clock + Dream Trawler = GG
your going to hit the 10k and he's just going to comment on the video asking you to play it again.
46:39 ...am i the aggro deck?
CGB contemplating after beating down mono red control
I love playing this deck
But CGB, what will you do when Dave will ask for another deck after this one ?
More charity!!
The matchmaking algorithm is on steroids
No Valakut awakening? Sad noises...
Personally, I like it to get rid of dead removal cards in your hand in different matchups.
Working well on gold! \0/
Could be fun add overload sperimental good sinergy with the spell and the counter
These times its more a „midnight clock-down“ 😂
Who is this guy?? I don...never mind. The dog makes me scream inside myself.
Now we need a new comment to pester CGB with. Quick! Someone make a bad deck and spam him with it!!!
very cool
Maybe I just misplay things, but man it really aggravates me when you roil instead of just countering the thing first. I mean he taps out to cast the artifact and you roil instead of just negating it.
It wastes more of the opponents mana
he can also draw a card
That tempo gain 👌
Kaheera... if it does not mess with the matchmaking directly then it probably has opponents let their guard down some...
Appropriate shirt for this deck
Bingus, my beloved.
36:41 "if anything in magic is fun" is a big relatable in this current meta it seems. or i forgot how to be good versus all the yorion fun my opponents have
But izzet good?
Shockingly!
I scrolled through the whole video waiting for mono red to come along and clap the cheeks off this horrible no win con nonsense.
The wincon is patience.
In heartless act on the barrens scenario It just takes three counters. not a great deal
Good job michigan
Daily dose of feeding algorithm

I added valakut awakening because I didn't have mazemind tome
I guess another week of jank would also help motivatijg the guys to give a little bit more for the charity
It has been hit!

Early CGB!
Has the matchmaking algorithm been busted a lot these last few days, only pairing people with very similar decks?
You ain't the only one. Also normal play cue is very delayed in between ending games and starting 'em
Izzet me, or do you love the triomes?
87.8K Subscribers to 100K!
Dade donating the rest of the money to make 10k just so you can play the deck haha

that first game where they concede as soon as you cast seagate restoration was so dumb. lol. you were going to have to shuffle all those cards away in 2 turns anyway, and were tapped out. it wasn't even a threatening play. probably not even a good play... i'm not sure why they conceded to it. haha
Wait, this is Temur not Izzet
did anyone else notice he was wearing a red and blue shirt
Noice
how did my deck get on here? lol
CKC!
You are cool.
All I've played in platinum today was rogues😂 its rigged
Yo
He is persistent. Lmao
You let then take negate with the nightmare should have just used it and countered it :/
Just got played by that deck, before seeing this video. Magic is no fun, if you not spending a ridiculous amount of money.
@15:00 Disappointed. :) Play the typhoon! :)
For some reason my brain read midnight clock and thought it was a magic mirror deck. Oops
Why do you bad mouth readers? Everyone is new at some point. even experienced players don't have all cards fully memorized.
All my homies hate agro and rogues... all my homies also hate maindeck mystical dispute. You have to be a psychopath to main deck mystical dispute in b01
Day 2 of 750 of donating $10 to help the children and also the dream trawler magic mirror teferi draw more enchantment guy.
Ugin is boring.
I though he picked red blue for the election day in Us
I don't support Dave Butler, I'm fine with him never getting his deck played.
So have a replacement comment for the algorithm.
Please play kaza control and don’t use goblin wizardry it almost always sucks.
Finally lol
Go cgb go michigan go biden!
