I personally run Hopeless Nightmares and Avarice in this deck. Avarice is SUCH a great card! Avarice gives me any card I need in my hand and draw power and I can also hit my opponent for 6 if I have Bloodletter on the field.
I think it's funny that ever since CGB released his mono red video, all of the red players immediately started playing shock. The villains watch your channel, bro lol.
@sindividual take the clown shoes off and read the comment again. I never said CGB invented mono red, but anybody with two eyes definitely noticed how many of the red decks started playing interaction, such as shock, when that definitely was not the meta before.
I just started tuning into Magic again after a few years' break, I think I stopped after the last Zendikar set. Has mono red just been infesting the game this whole time? Lol
@austinvanderveer213 mono red aggro and mono white weenie aggro seem to take turns being the dominant "low to the ground" aggro decks over the years. Mono red has been really good for the last several years though and seemingly just got better after rotation. Edit: the real problem is that mono red is saturating the matchmaking queues because red is cheap to build, has a decent win rate, and fast matches, making it a very good pick for ladder climbing.
Wish they'd ban Leyline of Resonance right away, got killed today 2 times by turn 2. I am forced to run 1 mana enchantment removal which I absolutely dont like.
Went 9-1 with a similar list yesterday. Feels pretty good! It’s a decent control deck without the combo and the damage can build up quickly without the wombo combo. Also the Unholy Annex room is my favorite card to play with, right now, and I recommend it for this deck
omg I worked last days on very similar slashy removal deck ;) thanks for new ideas! PS; "duress" is sometimes useless,check out the "ruthless negotiation" :)
I built this deck pretty close to what it is here, I threw myself at Gold for about three hours and never made it one level. This game is such crap anymore, sure there were some amazing moments but all in all I just got the floor mopped with me for three hours straight, yay!
@@xtrasquish yeah I know it's created by the rules committee; but Commander is the most profitable format for Magic the Gathering right now so if you believe the rules committee dictates any rules or bans any cards in Commander without consulting WOTC then you've got your head up your ass!
I have not encountered any problems removing/blocking this guy. Mana crypt into Ad Naus on the other hand… (Disclaimer: Not a fan of the EDH bans either in all honesty)
pretty disappointed they only have these powerful creature effects in red and black (screaming nemesis/unstoppable slasher). Where are the scary effects from blue/white/green?
Id say mindskinner fits the bill; sure, you could argue its not as good as the others, but milling a gazillion cards every turn is a pretty flavorful terror experience from blue haha
Oculus goes hard in W/U. I haven’t lost a game against Slasher players yet, honestly I just leave it on the board and remove other threats because I have so many recursion options and chump blockers getting generated, there’s no way it’s connecting. Lovecraftian Eldritch Horror arguably scarier than Jason haha
Are there any decks on Arena that don't get matched up against mono red as often? It's ruining standard for me. And I don't have hours a day to play BO3. I can't escape the infection of Arena that is Mono Red everything everywhere all the time. Help? I literally get paired against mono red 2 of 3 games on average no matter what deck I play.
Amazing content as always. Im not sure how l feel about Duskmourn yet. Seems like wizards just picks a color and makes it unstoppable lol no pun intended
Oh look, another shill to push this awful game. Wizards your game sucks. Worst set and worst standard I've ever seen or experienced. You ran this into the ground. Great job.
Lol, CGB breaking character and giving a lesson to mono red players about holding priority to ensure lethal.
He has become corrupted!
Wasted effort. Mono red players don't have the IQ to think about plays
I knew CGB would draw that 6th land.
Saaame! 😂
HE NEVER MULLS EVEN WHEN ITS THE MOST OBVIOUS MULL EVER! LOL WHY
Truly 😂

Avarice is an incredible card, but mono red is so prevalent that it's not nearly as good as it should be 😅
This is basically the deck I'm running these days. It is despicable. I love it so much...
I think it's funny that ever since CGB released his mono red video, all of the red players immediately started playing shock. The villains watch your channel, bro lol.
You do realize that deck was being played before CGB exposed it, right? Definitely not his original deck.

@@zachariahsmith8450also a good pick for room temperature IQ players who can't be bothered to learn the game
Idk if CGB is just a great actor, or if he's finally enjoying the fun of creature decks.
Possibly also being able to beat red aggro without running red aggro.
I wonder how Unstoppable Slasher would work with Glissa to remove counters. or maybe render inert.
A most far option can be Marchesa too
Copied this deck off Moxfield Tuesday, proceeded to go diamond 3 to mythic in a couple hours. Very fun.
Wish they'd ban Leyline of Resonance right away, got killed today 2 times by turn 2. I am forced to run 1 mana enchantment removal which I absolutely dont like.
they dont give a shit about standard anymore. that is clear from the last few sets

True Bro! Annex is great for draw, and with the Aclazotz it gives you lifegain + 4 damage for opponent 😄
The BEST part about this is that it doesn't even HAVE to be Mono-B. A 2nd color can give you *options* & make the build more budget-friendly!
How does adding dual lands make a deck more budget-friendly?
25:41 I can understand the sardonic glee, but I got more of "you got my last lizard" vibes 😂
This feels like it's going to be a rogue deck you need to be aware of constantly for the next several years. Just removal and slasher.
omg I worked last days on very similar slashy removal deck ;) thanks for new ideas! PS; "duress" is sometimes useless,check out the "ruthless negotiation" :)
That bogles deck looks fun
During like the second or third game, mishra’s foundry could have lived with its own effect
Rage only gives +5 because the roles don't stack. Still wasn't lethal but you are right, point taken.
That bat deck was painful, that was my Bloom standard deck. They need way more removal, Lilliana doesn't cut it.
Love the deck. Thank you!
Do we think Arena knew he was recording for the official channel and that's why he was on the play so much?
You can take your tin foil off now
I was tired of all these awesome cards so I made an exile deck to deal with all of it with toxic… rip enemies
If I were to "shave off" 4 mythic cards, what rares would do as nice substitutes? (probably taking out Sheoldred and Liliana)
actually I think I'm just add more discard.
24:15 And a deadmau5? Where? :D
Nice deck. I'll give it a try!

mike unlucky with not pulling the hexproof
:D
What lifegain decks?
SO. MANY. LANDS
But mono red leylone combo, standard has never been worse
There is something wrong with the hand smoother my demon deck gives me so many lands it’s insane
Imagine just cloning slasher into oblivion.
Wizards of the Coast made a card like this but then thought mana crypt was a problem in Commander
Commander rules aren't made by wotc.

How expensive is this deck to craft for a new player?
Mike was really unlucky
Damn, he lost to Rarran with this deck and stole his deck
Who’s got an update for this after FDN?

occulus from blue is scary enough, if you got ways to resurrect recursively that is and there are plenty of those in white.
Maybe I'm old school but did you really ask why red and black have uniquely scary *creature* effects?

The only way to win Magic: The Gathering, is to not play Magic: The Gathering.
At the end of the day this set has cool cards but its absolutely to fast
Zoomers want this
Standard mono in any color is for cowards
