LLLLLLooooking for a good night's sleep? Seriously, does anybody else need LegenVD to occasionally fall asleep? I hear his voice and suddenly everything's ok, everything's as it was before the world fell apart.
Finally somebody made a valakut deck! I noticed you kept running into: valakut dumping useful cards in the yard. You might consider adding black for creature recursion so the yard becomes a resource. Phil is winmore card. All you need is greenwarden, valakut, cobra and nissa
another great video. your ability to keep interesting decks that have totally different play patterns and play them all well is very impressive to me. I am always excited to see a new standard or historic video and it helps the work day pass just a little bit faster
It's so fun to play this deck. Especially with nothing on board except of 2 Valakuts in the late game, the opponent is going to win and than there is an top decked Ancient Greenwarden, the Valakuts draw you an Azusa, Fabled-Passage-Time starts and suddenly the opponent went from 20 live to nothing... all the cards you like to play and don't know how - THANK YOU for the Inspiration with this great deck :-)
have you played it in best of three? i was wondering if this was real enough to play on ladder. would be interested in a list/sideboard if you don't mind. cheers!
Eternal lesson relearned from Match 4: Your odds of winning against any deck running green drops down by a couple of percentage points based on whether or not you have an answer to their turn1 or 2 mana dorks. Especially that damn snake.
I've been running a version with Adventure cards and escape to the wilds. And trying to figure out what cards are in what zone are an absolute nightmare.
According to the text on greenwarden, it doesn't double the number of triggers. Rather, it makes them trigger an additional time. So every greenwarden adds one additional trigger to the stack rather than an exponential increase like with multiple anointed processions.
Do you think Lotus Cobra will get banned? It ramps like crazy, literally solves all colored mana problems and it's only a goddamn 2-drop. I mean, Omnath for example is a problem, but only really because Cobra makes him so easy to cast by turn 3. I mean really, what were they thinking?
Reprinting cobra was a tremendous mistake. Why do they think easily cheating on Mana is a good thing? At least half of the bans are failed attempts at making free Mana not busted.
This is almost EXACTLY the same deck I have been playing since zendikar release. But I’m having a lot of trouble with fast decks that don’t allow me to ramp. Also not drawing valakut is very bad. I tried adding 2 copies of escape to the wilds to help with that, but feels slow:( pls lvd tell me what am I doing wrong :(
I added cheap removal for the aggro matchups like Cinderclasm and Purphoros Intervention .. and more Dryads to use as blocker instead of Azusa.. scute swarm in lieu of Phil to start building board presence earlier
@@rodpaschoal i removed phil as well, he just didnt fit. I had scute swarm but i removed it after i lost so many won games due to the fact that the game breaks when i try to combo off and draw the entire deck (producing thousands of insect copies)
Lol.. in this case you can try to win with less insects... I have closed many matchups with Scute Swarm. Now I am trying to change Ashaya for Fiery Emancipation as most of times Ashaya gets killed before I do something relevant with her
Are you enjoying the deck ? I like It.. the winrate is like 50% for me but It is improving after added Scute Swarm (instead of Phil) and I am going to try Fiery Emancipation (instead of Ashaya)
34:13 Swing for 5, Fling for 2, play land so that you have 3 cards in exile = 10 damage. Opponent sure is a pessimist for assuming that you would take that line.
I think a Light up the Stage effect needs to be available for red somewhere in every standard rotation. I don't think Exploration, good as it is, quite cuts it for mono red.
🧝♀️⛰️🔥
I could listen to you for hours. You are a great educator and I always end up wanting to build the deck and play more Magic.
I click for the creative deck ideas, but I stay for the jokes!!
This deck looked entertaining so I spent some wildcards on it. It is absolutely bonkers. Very fun to play. Thanks for putting this together!

Phil and I need to have a sesh. Sounds like a cool dude

I would so much rather lose to a landfall deck like this than an Omnath one 😂
You say that now but when this becomes the default landfall deck after Omnath gets banned, you'll be regretting what you said.
I hope Omnath gets banned, cause I crafted a set and I'm too ashamed to play it
LoL totally agree, and I also totally used 4 wildcards on Omnath 👌
You don't want to play the UNBANNABLE META KILLER, OMNATH DESTROYER OF BALANCE? lame
I love the names the MTG community has for cards. Of course Phylath gets called "Phil". Dovin's Veto becomes "Danny Devito". Tymaret = "Timmeh" lmao
Don't forget Tim, Bob, and Steve :D
Ugin being eugene

What about Gary?
Taylor Swiftspear!
Ilysian Caryatid is also a plant.
Been sitting on four copies of Valakut Exploration. This deck seems like a great way to start experimenting with them.
lvd describing his own possible courses of action, taking every possibility into account: 13:54
opponent: 24:14
All according to plan. *evil laugh*
holy sh*** that's a powerful deck
Loving it... Added 4 Scute Swarm.. when it goes crazy with 6 mana it is impossible to stop..
At 25:00 I was going crazy. You could have played radha that turn!!
this is a sweet deck. really enjoy your stuff, thanks lvd
I usually think gruul is boring and lame, but this deck is pretty awesome
Such a nice deck, thanks!
Been tuning a historic landfall deck similar to this but more aggro running Scapeshift and CoCo, very fun so I'm definitely trying this deck out.
37:25 LVD, you could play the land and buff up Radha to 9/9. Not sure if that was lethal, though.
It wasn't
You could consider playing scavanging ooze in this deck. It's really nice against rogues and Mono red in my opinion
My life goal is to be as chill and cool as my brother Phil
You ever just see a deck and think "yes, this is it". Thats this deck to me. Good or bad, competitive or not, this is that deck.
I Just crafted and dived in
cool deck, thanks!
What a great deck
I've been playing a deck similar on the ladder with mindmaze tome and vivian for an endless top deck
have you played it in best of three? i was wondering if this was real enough to play on ladder. would be interested in a list/sideboard if you don't mind. cheers!
@@johnwaynesmom ya i have, but not this version. With a positive win percentage as well.

Badass deck. Did you consider Escape to the Wilds? Seemed to me like it could fit, but maybe a little too slow.
I've been running a version with Adventure cards and escape to the wilds. And trying to figure out what cards are in what zone are an absolute nightmare.
Just another junky aspect of arena. Agadeems animation looks like, I don’t know what
Just wait till mobile :D
I've been running this with the enchantment that triples damage. It doesn't win much, but it's great one-shotting the opponent on a nice ramp turn!
I am trying Fiery Emancipation as well.. some mentioned Lithoform which is cheapier (4 mana) but it just double and you have to pay 2 to double
This deck with terror of the peaks or leyline tyrant looks nice
Love your content
Love your vids!!

@11:00 shouldn't double green warden trigger landfall 4x instead of 3x? Is this a bug?
According to the text on greenwarden, it doesn't double the number of triggers. Rather, it makes them trigger an additional time. So every greenwarden adds one additional trigger to the stack rather than an exponential increase like with multiple anointed processions.
Love the deck. Think a Moraug would work as a finisher? Got a full set of him and I'm wondering what to do with them

Wish we had a fireball/blaze type card in standard, guess we’ll have to wait until Strixhaven
volcanic geyser
U know valakut works great with song of creation?
Does dryad of the elysian grove also turn your lands into wastes?
Don't think so.
Can you make a deck anti mill rouge?
So ashaya plus field of the dead can basically creates infinite zombies?
Ashaya says "nontoken creatures"
Valakut Exploration + Scapeshift in Historic. Do it!
tempted to throw crawling barrens into there as a mana dump and surprise creature
Ashaya or Greenwarden? Which is a better card to you guys?
I found that Greenwarden has more sinergy with the other landfall cards... And you can use It as soon as you cast before it gets killed
@@rodpaschoal feel the same bro!
Are you enjoying the deck ? I like It.. the winrate is like 50% for me but It is improving after added Scute Swarm (instead of Phil) and I am going to try Fiery Emancipation (instead of Ashaya)
@@rodpaschoal I do like it but to be honest most decks I play balance out to around 50% winrate... it’s quite frustrating
@@rodpaschoal love fiery emancipation!
Kudos for not adding omnath, even though it would boost the decks power level ;)
Phucking Phil, dude always brings a party
This was great but needs more Phyl!

LVD "Llllooking to improve our game?"
me "but, but, i tought we were looking for magic cards.."
No lithoforming? Missed opportunity
lithoforming really feels like a winmore
Maybe Fiery Emancipation
I think a Light up the Stage effect needs to be available for red somewhere in every standard rotation. I don't think Exploration, good as it is, quite cuts it for mono red.
A landfall deck without Omnath? Sign me up!
MtG in 2010: Ok, so you ramp a lot, what is your actual win condition?
MtG in 2020: Uro, Nissa, FotD, Valakut: Ramp IS the win condition
Another bolt hound pet, another opponent muted
Phil the stoner 😀
Yoo
Lol phil😂
Me a stoner: i am phil
I don't think phil is an edgy teen
thanks for not building an omnath deck
This just looks broken, looks like a historic deck standard legal
It looks broken because of Cobra, which is basically a mana cheat and is indeed broken. Can't wait for it to be banned.
Phyl is a bit of a stoner LMFAOOOOOO LUCA 😂
First!
Dude, Luca made a weed joke?!!!! does this mean what I think it means???!!!
Made 4 mobile
oh, phyl you stoner...
