Is it just me or Rogues always have their 4 Drown in the Loch in their top 30 cards?
No topp 20(;
Not to mention the Crabs that always come in pairs.
Only when they need them.
Sure does feel like it that’s for sure.
I wish, when I play rogues I am lucky to open with an enforcer >.>
In your first game, Ox of Agonas was lit up because the opponent was hovering over it 🤣 you need to exile 8 cards to escape Ox and you only had 7 other cards in the graveyard - the Ox being the 8th.
I made the same mistake as CGB and was so confused XD
I really liked, in your intro, when you note that the deck changes emphasis through sideboard exchanges against certain opponent deck types. Please, more1 It’s kindof a bigger/more meta-level deck constructions-which I’d love to understand more: What makes-not a particular deck good-but rather what principals of deck building do you consider
I’d love it if you incorporated more discussion of deck building principals/theory crafting/whatever. It would truly be the fuckingbeesknees.
You explain so well your in-game decisions. It’s why I enjoy your videos so much. Maybe expand this? In any case, keep doing you.
Whenever I get stuck in standard, I always end up watching your videos and makes me want to play again immediately. I've been playing yorion lists the past few weeks after the rakdos midrange deck got check. This deck I dig. Does a lot of stuff to counter the meta right now. Thanks again for showcasing this.
CGB, I love your content. It keeps me company through some pretty crappy times, and if I'm actually happy, I can still watch it and see you play some good magic and I can shamelessly netdeck fun decks. :)
Just wanted to come here to say I love your videos. I take breaks where I dont watch for a while, but if I'm playing magic, I am watching your ENTIRE video daily
Almost want to trash your play for tilting is into commenting, BUT you do such a great job explaining the thought process and usually come up with the best possible outcome. Very fun to watch!
30:34 i think you could have had lethal with crawling barrens
I think crawling Barrens is definitely one of the most underrated cards that came out of this set. So good in many matches
@32:00 I just saw settle the wreckage. There is a me too for that, right?
I don't leave comments often on your videos but thank you for never ceasing to have daily content for me. The quarantine has been hard and I've lost contact with some of my friends but at least I can wake up each day with a new CGB video.
Glad to help in some way
There's something about this video and the games in it that just made it very funny. Like all the draws were ridiculous
been playing a mono-red version with storm's wrath as the sweeper. Definitely worse against RG aggro but feels fine otherwise, and occasionally kills a walker
Hey CGB, here is the algorithm boosting comment; Hahaha, CGB misplays, I myself, as a flawless mage, of course never make any mistakes... Jokes aside, love your content, looking forward to your uploads each day!
For the algorithm, I think at 30:40 you mightve missed lethal if you activated crawling Barron twice, giving you 6 extra power, but it doesn’t really matter
I played around with this build and ended up with my favorite deck I’ve played in probably a month. Big Red Ugin!!! The main differences is it’s now mono red 🎤🎤🎤 with 4 Irencrag, relic robber, Valakut, and Yidaro. Irencrag has eight cards to combo with either turn 4 Yidaro or turn 5 Ugin. Relic robber is instant pressure against slow decks and uses up some Yidaro removal. Against fast decks it’s shuffled back in for another card with valakut. I’ve never mulliganed with it yet (31 possible lands. I did have 30 but then I missed a 4th land drop 3 turns in a row 1 game. Again Valakut is like the mvp for cruising through this deck) thanks CGB for the content that got me to this deck 😎
Saw this decks like this yesterday 3 times in a row. And it did really well! Gotta respect it.
CGB have you considered a Yorion Mill deck? Blinking Tutelages and Omen of the Sea and things as such? Like a mill deck with 2 yorions maindeck or something?
Yours is the only mtg arena content creator channel I'm subscribing to bc your not constantly asking your viewers for subs. btw PLZZZZ create a scourge of the Skyclaves deck! I made one but it's not consistent. Nobody has really made a good one yet. So if you're up to the challenge, the task is falling on you. Ever since I saw the card I've wanted to make a viable deck with it. Gl and keep up the Awesome content Homie G!
I've got a Rakdos deck that uses the Scourge. It's a little all over the place, but it's been doing well. It's a rogue/graveyard deck. I use Stormfist crusaders, castle lockthwain and demonic embrace to damage myself and the rogues damage my opponent. If I damage myself too much, I use Lurrus and the archfiend to get my life back up. Kroxa is more for late game, especially if your opponent can easily handle your rogues. I was thinking about adding crystal slipper for the haste, but I don't think it's necessary. The Scourge of the Skyclaves is definitely a very awkward card, especially in early game.

It very much feels like you could just go with mono red+ colorless.
Nah, Black adds so much better removal
Okay now I saw the čist, and why splash black if you arent going to run bloodchief:s thirst, murderous Rider and Heartless Act?
@@jozzyalthefool9273 The colorless lands, especially crawling barrens, are very strong and being nearly mono red lets you use more of them. having double black requirements gets in the way of that
@@ahoy1 I think that crawling barrens are slightly overrated, to ve honest. Actualy, a lot of the colourless lands are, not counting Mutavault and Tron lands
@@jozzyalthefool9273 there good in a control style grindy game. Land abilities are usually really bad for the manna but don't require cards
Oh my GOD I can't believe CGB missed lethal, I must engage™ with the content™ because he missed lethal so hard.
This is surprisingly good. Rolled right through 3 rogue decks in a row. As long as you don't flood they fall down pretty easy. :)
Hahaahahah he draws Ugin late game 1
“Die, just freakin die” lmao I was weak.
The Ox-Draw was amazing 35:12 xD
I play too much historic and was thinking about settle when you attacked for lethal into the Yorion deck.
lol awesome dude. Really good. well played!!!!!!
I played this from platinum4 to mythic few days a go, with some minor changes. Played 2 kroxa in main and 3 extingtion event and 4 crawling barrens.
Hey dude love the vids. Wish I could subscribe more than once. Hope you make it to 100k before the end of the year!!!
It’s to the point where I’m shocked if CGB does not come back to win even if it’s 39 to 3, he is so clutch!
I have been building different versions of the deck, and after 30 games, I have settled on this one. I am currently 12-3 with it, and tbh the one leyline tyrant is a real allstar. With Irecrag, you can save all the mana for later and do tons of damage. The one sundering stroke has clutched lots of games. You can play it on turn four, and deal 21 damage. 7 to face, and 7 to 2 other targets. It's insane against any aggro, and most decks never see it come because it is also a great finisher. Added heartless act because it helps with Questing Beast and Lovestruck beast. Also good vs Kroxa.
Here is the list.
Deck
4 Spikefield Hazard (ZNR) 166
3 Swamp (ANB) 116

2 Crawling Barrens (ZNR) 262
2 Fabled Passage (ELD) 244
I'm playing a much jankier monored version with Deatbellow War Cry and I love it!
I took your idea to listen to epic soundtracks while playing Magic from previous video. Better music for that can't be found :)
Low key rooting for the gruul deck since that’s my go to play style! Damn good game though to end it off!
Is it really worth splashing for just the two cards? In particular, red does have a couple spells available to them to damage all creatures. Fewer tapped lands and definitely being able to cast Feat's RRR sounds pretty good. Especially when you have four robots who can turn those sweeps into value.
Sometimes you really do need to exile things vs kill them. Escape creatures, the occasional Seasoned Hallowblade, and since Green is popular and can possibly have Heroic Intervention, you don’t wanna go for a sweep and the Green player just says “nope.”
My eyes literally bled after that Bonecrusher into Dragonfire play on Ooze at 48:30
You should go see a doctor.
congratz on the amount gathered for extra life cgb !!
that last game was quite the.... gruul-ing experience
Shut up and take my thumbs up lol
But yeah that game was wild. Really pays to think of any way your opponent can come back, and not assume you just out-valued them.
liked, and making the algorithm proper suggestions
"Galaxy brain moment achieved", 1 minute later "maybe I'm stupid" :D
Cool vid!
Can you try using kaya the roil caster and goblin wizardry combo
Always fun to see rogue decks get rekt. Keep em coming my man.
CGB is very intelligent and all, but I tell you. If you play the intro at 0.25x speed, he sounds pretty funny.
0.25 was to slow. 0.5 was perfectly funny enough.
@@coubre to each their own
Another good vidéo, thanks CGB!
Group question: how do I use the bedroom emotes? Got them from mastery but can't find out how to use in game... what am I missing? (When I click on my avatar only the regular text shows up...)
click profile then emotes under avatar then click them to activate emotes hedron
Found this deck today on ladder, was testing Reanimator. Turns out an 11/11 9cmc Titanoth is too much to handle for Ugin and a deck without Heartless Act
I think irencrag feat is only useful if you are playing with leyline tyrant on your deck
Why wasn't the last guy attacking with giant?
Been playing this all week. Deck is :chefskiss: but hard to pilot/sideboard.
It's a bug. Even though it didn't light up you can still cast it... It happens sometimes with some exiled cards in this new patch
CKC
OMG MISSED LETHAL!!!!
CGB with 16k gems: well, I wanted to be cheap, so I didn't craft 2 crawling barrens.
Me, F2P: 4 mythic lands for mono green, here we go!
But seriously, I approve. Hoarding this way got me to 100+ rare wildcards as F2P.
Is there any point in getting into paper standard? Is it even worth it?
CGB can you do a historic Jund B01 deck??
CGB what is with these Juicy Draft Tokens ???
Nice haircut!
Just here to boost the algorithm for CGB
I want some awesome 7 mana red cards (like drakuseth) in next set! I want big red to be a thing again (yeah i know fiery brush taunter exists)
Cant wait for the Ghalta cosplay CGB :)
i was the only person playing big red like a month ago in standard and i swear someone took my idea, but im free to play so i couldnt finish
88.3K Subs to 100K! You can do it! Go CGB!
This is me boosting the algorithms
YOU GOT THIS!!!
Rakdos Yorion?
Rakdos
2 copies of a black card
This is Yorion Boros all over again, except red is getting the bigger amount of cards this time
Rakdos, the great Defiler, Lord of all Riots, the one who stops the Show does not approve
Wuh boy, on point for dinner
my main deck has been a similar big red deck, but it's actually only red. i agree with your statement that mono green is the worst. that's why i have 2 soul sear in my 60.
storms wrath kills most stuff, but if they're on the play, yorvo and lovestruck beast into henge are really hard to deal with... because henge's mana cost is too high for ugin to realistically remove.
overall i feel like it's a decent deck though, and very fun / off meta
Dino costume stream needs some historic Zacama nonsense!
Nice deck bro, i like it
Actually, a great bouquet of compliments
CGB you should use your draft tokens. You never know you might draft the crawling barrens. Maybe your $10k goal should be you streaming draft as I am sure that will get you there :-)
34:57 Since your predictions about your draws are so ridiculously precise you should not predict what you don't wan to draw.
Anyways this Ox draw...I had a good laugh and a facepalm
Damn CGB, 239 Common, 123 Uncommon, 100 Rare and 21 Mythic Rare? Just use the wilcards man!
>Best Big Red Deck according to CGB
> is control
I sense a pattern here.
Suggestion for the deck: the dragon that keeps you the red mana insanr with irencrag feat
It's not that good, It's like a 4 mana bolt
Well later on its like a big fireball
Yes, Dino CGB!
This deck looks cool
35:15 To the casino with you!

Teeth ground sharp and eyes glowing red

This is halloween parody cuz im bored
100K HYPEE
just here for the algo, ggs cgb
Omg. Love your content. Party on. Ausgezeichnet.
Is it just me or does anyone else want to see CGB play Mono-Red control?
rakdos without kroxa?
Note to anyone that copy pasta's this deck into arena. PUT 4 CRAWLING BARRENS IN IT. It's legitimately a world of difference between this and bonders enclave. Played a bunch of mirror matches where I easily won with a 10/10 barrens while they're there sitting around with a dead enclave. Makes the control matchups a joke once you figure out how to navigate them, otherwise your control matchup is sketchy and can be fairly dependent on you drawing into one of your only 2. Been my favourite deck to play so far this season, feels great to pop an irencrag feat to take out two fatties early with a shatterskull. Has to be one of the best manabases in standard in a while
Boosting the algorithm
The amount of times the opponent mills 20 cards, and the draw after that is your escape card... Too tragic.
What a game and I know you know which one. What a game.
I’m curious about the type of dad cgb would be. Idk why I thought of him as a dad, but I should prolly go to bed
41:35 No drugs Please. LOL
This 'big red' deck has an interestinly low count of big red spells
That first game was so entertaining.
Leaving a comment just for the algorithm. Is UA-cam the new shuffler?
I like the input as a meta counter. But i see no rakdos :P
Dino suit! "Oh the humanity"
Plural of ox is oxen.
At $10K can we get a Godzilla deck?
Always great games
Dodging Monogreen shouldn't be too hard, in ranked it seems I am the only one playing it. But it got me to Diamond undefeated, not sure why it isn't more played
Nice play
