Hey LSV, I was your #1 mythic opponent, great game! I loved that you said "they must have nothing going on" when I unlocked the doublestrike room, because I had the plan of threaten + bash for a lot, but I definitely misplayed that turn. shouldve stolen the bookworm, gain a bunch of life and exile the balustrade wurm. Oh well, still had a lot of fun that match
Glad to see you here. The moment you turned on double-strike, I knew you had threaten in hand. I was also surprised you didn't threaten the creature equipped with dissection tools, and exiled the Wurm as you mentioned. In any case, that's an awesome game.
At 22:00 you had a pretty cool play for lethal that turn: Sacrifice Bookworm to equip Dissection Tools on Balustrade Wurm, cast Waltz of Rage targeting Spineseeker Centipede to wipe their board, and then hit for 10. Remember folks, it is actually legal to cast Waltz of Rage targeting something other than your largest creature 😜
The close matches against opponents with equally busted decks and draws were really fun to watch! Insane sequences that would usually prompt a concession were matched by insane sequences on the other side of the board. Good stuff!
I know it's card disadvantage and it didn't really matter in the end, but at 36:51 you could just decline to return anything from your graveyard to hand with Under the Skin in order to keep delirium on.
Any consideration in cutting the glimmerburst from the main deck over the malevolent chandelier? Glimmerburst doesn’t seem like a great fit for your deck since you don’t have enchantment synergies.
Chandelier seems to be much more synergistic here. It’s an artifact creature for delirium. It helps you not mill out. And it’s also just a good creature to manifest dread onto and turn up in the late game as another threat.
I play exclusively on mtgo and literally every single video of this format ive seen is arena bo1 and these decks are just absolutely insane compared to what I'm seeing. Sometimes in this format you're in a wide open lane but the deck lsv has isn't even like a "deck" its just good cards... Set has too many good cards for bo1 imo although i may be in the minority i think there is such a thing as too high of card quality. Not being punished for being in the wrong lane isn't great imo.
Some bo1 tables are so soft that they have a disproportionate effect. I've noticed it more and more since the booster change, and it's especially prominent in this set.

Slamming for lethal out of nowhere is just too tempting loll

Wow, I knew there's supposed to be lethal there somewhere, but I didn't see this line. Great catch!
that is genius!
LSV "I'm not really racing to #1, but just playing a lot"
Next video
"The race to #1"
The guy to your left must've had an amazing red/white deck
This limited set is so damn good

glad to see duskmorn still mixed in cheers luis
true really enjoying the format, I wouldn't mind more content.
Man those packs were nuts , I imagine if you had gone hovership you'd still have a sicko red white deck with triple Arabella.
Loved that ending in your match v the #1. Their last turn was nailbiting
It was a really strange one too. Had they unlocked their room they could have survived.
34:18 as a Queen fan, this small golden moment was just adding so much!! :)
The only thing I hate about watching an aLSV video is the intro.... It it makes me want to drink a cup of coffee every time 😜😂
Enjoying the race between Egashira, Cheon, and Scott-Vargas. I've never consumed so much content for a set I'm not playing :)
And numot too he is racing for #1 too
@@MarkChaney-b8kNumot's real name is Kenji Egashira.
i've had Waltz of Rage and Dissection Tools together in 3 decks, they definitely seem to fnd each other in the draft :P
This draft was insane, TWO Zimone's, Balustrade Wurm, Dissection tools, Waltz of Rage and then nearly every other card is a premium common/uncommon.
That glimmer light pick was not what I was expecting
That fourth pick Zimone is so embarrassing for the Arena draft
The spine seeker over paranormal analyst in Pack One was wild.
It really is that good.
I thought it was crazy too but it worked out in the end
Meanwhile my rares in draft: leylines, lands, and the useless rooms 😂
I know it's card disadvantage and it didn't really matter in the end, but at 36:51 you could just decline to return anything from your graveyard to hand with Under the Skin in order to keep delirium on.
Loving seeing everyone race for the top spot this set!
51:43 nice fallout reference :)
@37:15 Under the Skin is "MAY" return permanent, not have to. Could have had delirium at that point.
Green has been so good for me this set. Drafted green blue 4 times, with 3 trophies.
Can you put a link to that video that the person made of you yelling at Jules? It sounds hilarious
Also would like to know what Jules is actually doing. Digging something?
LSV the burp machine ASMR back in action
Moist Jund as GOD intended (is what I would say if I wasn't horribly betrayed by correct descisions).
Been binging Kenji, LSV, Cheon & Reid lately 🥰
Dissection Tools is just Batterskull, change my mind
Its better
Is there a way to see the player rankings for the top mythic players? Would be cool if there was a realtime leader board of the top 25.
31:00 Kaito/Marvin is a combo, not sure if you pointed this out and i missed it
Editor was sweating bullets while he penned that title.
Can anyone link to the LSV yelling at Julie to stop scratching her dog bet supercut? My search skills have failed me
I'm struggling just drafting a 2 color deck, and there are people over here with domain decks stomping on people.

VS #1 Mythic player there was a line to win that turn; Waltz of rage target bookworm, there board is wiped attack for game.
Wanted to follow up, this wouldn't have actually worked because they then target bookworm with ping gaining 1 then take 8 instead 9.
@@stelew7658 There is a line for lethal there but you don't quite have it.
Sick format
Marvin + Kaito is pretty neat
You know you're here for the quintessential karn mirror 😁
Wait I just heard you say in LR with Paul that he's the one that said you were racing to Mythic.....did you declare?
Rares.
Saw actually works really well with zimone. Was sad to see ya pass it so quickly in pack 1.

does bo1 change the average card quality? it’s still 8 people opening 3 packs why would decks be more powerful on arena?
Some bo1 tables are so soft that they have a disproportionate effect. I've noticed it more and more since the booster change, and it's especially prominent in this set.
Let's go!!!!
Did the mythic 1 opponent miss a point of damage at 18:33 with postcombat percussionist? and you won at 1 life...that was the game right there.
Any reason for playing bo1 instead of traditional drafts ? Not complaining, just wondering
Bo3 is unranked
@@LSVargas Regrettably.

Can I be in this pod lol
No idea how you got to mythic playing 4 color draft decks that synergies 60% of the time.
Lol 16:41
Crazy that you completely ignore the "Anthropede".
I'm not sure that ignoring the 4th worst common in the set with a 50.3% GIH WR counts as "crazy".

Simic manifest dread is the best deck in draft
Your videos aren’t long enough
So many broken cards!!! When is the destruction of MTG gonna stop?! Please make it stop!!
Chicken or the egg? You are good because you love it or love it because you are good at it? 🤔🫣🥰👍💯
