Thanks to the limited skills I've picked up here, I qualified for the Decathlon final with the mixed sealed event and the drafts in Vow and Zendikar, all fun! Saved my gold for the past week+ to try a few practice rounds, and oof I'm in way over my head! First Cube of any sort, and unfamiliar with most of the cards, I think you can expect to face a lot of noobs like me. 0-3 on giant random Golgari creatures first, 3-3 getting my mana curve back to normal with a decent Dimir control, 1-3 disappointingly attempting Izzet spells, and finally 6-3 with a solid Azorius control deck. Cube is hard! Don't love the Arena economy as usual, cool to get a few old cards as a guaranteed reward, really they should be giving packs alongside the gold, but loving the play experience, so it's worth it. Great to be able to stop by and hone my skills while the event is still running, I'll be playing more, I'm sure.
@1:07:15 says "we are going to wipe their board" but clicks on "make 3 1/1 devils" when he plays Burn Down The House off mastery. Luckily, opponent didn't stick around to find out 😅😅
Just wanna say thanks for the vids bro. Studying your drafts has guided me to mythic. I look fwd to maybe hopefully one day playing you at the top one day.💪🏾
Last game when they had Anax and played Torbran I got serious PTSD from back when Mono Red dominated Standard with those cards... Embercleave woulda been the icing on the cake there, lol. Funny how all those cards are in this cube
I drafted this cube yesterday, p1p1 Approach lol The deck is a 5 color monstrosity with Approach, The Eldest Reborn, Demonic Tutor, Time Warp, Golos, Field of the Dead and some other awesome stuff. It's doing 2-0 atm (won both games with Approach). Arena Cube is incredibly fun as always
Man when I saw the Skysovereign, Consol Flagship I geeked. My favorite deck back in the day was mardu vehicles. Won so many games with that, it just slaps. Then harvester was there!!! Ooof, crew the sovereign with a 1/1 LOL. Ill draft tomorrow if I have time, I want to play some of those cards in limited format for sure given the opportunity
is it bad luck to be stopped from not killing the oracle? i think there's enough hexproof, pump etc cards that the info gained is minimal compared to the blowout?
I think I would have played the last turn of the first game differently. Foretold the epiphany and played the hermit to stave off the lethal devils again. They either commit mana to kill the hermit and don't have enough to one shot you again for a turn....or they have to play it for less for the tax anyway. Either way I think it gets you to the next turn. Though the mastery play off epiphany is still reasonable.
WE HIT 40K!! Thanks for all the support, my tubers ❤
Get that sweet YT $$$!!!!
That’s awesome man I just started streaming hopefully I reach that 1 day!
Deserved. Thanks for all the awesome content

Blood for the blood god. Skulls for the skull throne.
Couldn't care less if you stack up wins or not. Your drafts, gameplay and attitude makes me watch all content you release!

Holy Lord...that is a thumbnail. We'll give it a 9 Numot Tongues outta 10.
Definitely thought this would get 10/10. Tough critic 😂
Ahego Nummot is an image I didn't know I needed
The 1 life perfect 3 card mill was a sick game
I just wanna say, that while we are a youtube viewer, I feel like we are still chat.

Thank you for making these vids, very much appreciated
Thanks for watching!
That thumbnail is the stuff of nightmares…😳😳😳
Holy shit, game 1 was a heart breaker.
Im curious how tomorrow goes with people forcing or if people trying hard will read signs on arena.

Nummy when his opponent plays Obliterator 😰
Way to post so quick. Ive been doing a few. Hope to battle you at the decathalon!
Patient Rebuilding? Now that's a card you don't see everyday!
The way you emphasize "FIX-ed" for the revised Alchemy cards makes me think Epiphany and Chariot got neutered or spayed 😂😂😂
Help control the card population remember to spay your cat tokens

Wow, you said it wasn’t your style, but mono red Agro looked wide open. Do you have any videos where you went that direction?

Grixis Smorgasbord is one of my favorite draft archetypes for any format
Great video just what i got teased from yesterdays video
Do you keep the cards you choose here?
Izzet is so much fun in this cube.
yeah ive been loving this cube.
Got to more wins than predicted at the start, i'dd say we did pretty good :)
You should run half snow lands in your basics to turbo charge that field of the dead
Really wanted you to force sac deck for some reason
mtgo has a promotion for 1 free cube draft
a poor substitute for flashback drafts where you can draft 8 tix commons;
but free is free
Cube as fucking alchemy cards ? Jesus the are cancerifying the whoel game with this shit. I ll pass on the event
