As I said in the beginning, I didn't really build the deck. It was a list gathered from 2 of the best performing Stasis players that I found on tcdecks.net. I assume there's a reason why they didn't play Kegs, but I don't know what that is.

If I don't plan for them to be relevant at all in the current game then I think exiling one is just fine.

Yeah, over the years we've seen a ton of variations with Kismet and Root Maze, and even Oath of Druids for Akroma, but the lists that more consistently do well have been Mono U for quite a while.

@@agelessdisintegrated Nice! Yeah, the deck is far from finished, this was just my first draft and it just happened to work pretty well on a first try. Looking forward to see where this can go in the future!

@@HarmonicSliver They could, but at that point then sank a ton of resources into a kill that didn’t work, and it’s likely they simply won’t have enough cards in their deck to make a lethal Devourer in the future. They just thought it was better to scoop than to lose 15 turns later

The Splinter Twin decks in Modern famously cut all their Splinter Twins against matchups like Jund in favor of cards like Keranos that were hard for the Jund decks to deal with. Same is true for Amulet Titan and other Modern decks that I have played in the past, so I personally think that the heuristic of "if a deck is named after a card you never board it out" hurts more than it helps and can hinder growth as a player. That being said, I could definitely see boarding out Stasis being wrong, clearly I have no idea of how to play this deck 😅

I’d argue modern naming conventions don’t apply. Nor do modern cards. A better example might be oath, but typically those decks have manual ways to enable them (now). Flash is another good counter point. It was only briefly legal while good but it often just turned into countertop. I would also not say either of those modern decks have game warping cards on the level of stasis. Skipping a major phase of the game is quite a bit more than “make a copy of a thing.” or "put more lands into play." The previous statement wasn’t to say your wrong about not taking it out, but just that when a deck is *this* reliant on stasis to win, I’m not sure if it’s ever correct. I genuinely can’t recall ever winning a game with stasis without the namesake

As we saw throughout the league, the main kill is Black Vise, and BF is just a sideboard card we play in the main that I wish I didn't have, haha

I post content whenever I can/want to :P

@ 🥲

This one was sketchier than usual, but I appreciate your kind words 😅

Hahaha I have good moments every now and then xD

@@crucible_of_words Yeah, that deck was super sweet! Seems like there’s a ton of places to go with it

@@Nanigu Es una experiencia muy única y fascinante

Yeah, some folks are into Root Maze, but it's a card that does nothing unless you have a Forsaken City and simply feels unnecessary.

Jajajajaja, suele pasar. La gente ama odiar a Stasis. A mi me parece super interesante, disfruto mucho jugar contra el mazo. Despues de haberlo jugado aqui concluyo que no me gusta estar en el asiento del piloto, eso si.

I will, don't worry about that, haha

Funny that I'm on the completely opposite end of the spectrum: don't enjoy playing the deck, but really enjoy playing against it.

I love playing on both sides, and have some special kind of pleasure playing mirrors

I have already played Slivers multiple times in this very channel! They used to be my favorite tribe until I started falling in love with the Elves. I have multiple Sliver lists on MTGO, both 5c and Gro-a-Slivers!

@ oh I will have to go back and check for those videos although Ive probably watched them already and just forgotten about it. I think it’s positioned quite well right now

The art is, far and away, the best part of the card. Not to say the card is bad, just that the art is on a completely different level in terms of uniqueness, awesomeness and just overall vibes. 10/10

Hahaha, not going there any time soon xD Having tried (and not enjoyed) Sligh and now Stasis it's pretty clear that I simply don't enjoy decks that Will likes, haha

@@fpawluszmtgyou have much more refined taste as evidenced by your Elf leagues.

@@fpawluszmtg you have a much more refined taste as evidenced by your Elf leagues.

You mean Despotic Scepter. Scepter does nothing for you if you don't draw Stasis though. Claws can at least give you some life, to buy you time to get to Stasis if you don't have it yet.

I used to play with Claws of Gix. Every time I wished I had Despotic Scepter. It gives you an extra turn. The 1 life never saved me. Thank you for the correction btw. Yes, I meant Despotic not Disrupting.

Thank you!!! I have no idea at all about how to build the deck, this was a list I put together mixing up Will's and Hartl's, If you told me you'd build the deck differently I would probably just agree with you 😄

Annul is currently one of the best sideboard cards in the format. It has multiple fantastic targets against a wide range of the metagame, and it hits some of the top decks particularly well (Oath decks, Dreadnought decks and Replenish).

What do you think about annul in the side of groatog ? I ask this because u can play disenchant too and disenchant can answer a resolved dreadnoughr while annul can’t… I guess u understand what am talking about I would be very happy to get your opinion

I'm guessing you're a fellow 6/6 gamer who has been hurt one too many times. We should have a support group.

Very similar for me, when I got told about the format the selling point friends used was stasis is legal and good.

I personally think that the deck existing and being good is one of the many reasons that make Premodern the best format.

groatog fares very good against stasis

Stasis is also what sold premodern to me. I had not played magic in almost 20 years and I am having a blast playing it weekly at my lgs

Prefire es un formato creado por la comunidad, que utiliza otra ban list diferente a la de Modern, y solo permite cartas hasta Ravnica Allegiance. Asique si, este mazo es de 2025!

#notwashed, hahaha

You're welcome!

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!

You could certainly do that! I do think that needing to resolve your answer to manlands does come with a subset of problems, though, especially against control decks.

I may play a league here and there if I feel like it, but have no interest in making regular content for the format, if I'm being honest.

I can respect a honest man. Hopefully the move and job search went well for you. I remember you said you where moving and looking for a job to support your family and I just want the best for my friend

@@Kheltar It was in the OG list, of course, but as I was putting together the list of lands I wanted while making sure I kept enough plains for Flagstones, fetch/fetchables and utility Boseiju ended up getting cut. Truth is that without a way to bounce it after tutoring it its value is very diminished, even though I love etb untapped G sources

@ thanks for the lengthy explanation:) for me, wrenn + boseiju seems too spicy to pass - sometimes it’s just gg, but you’re certainly much more competent to speak about this deck than I am :P

@@raku5178 Thanks! It is really fun to pilot, I’ll say that much!

@@danturner1104 It’s a deck I put together some years ago because I love Elvish Reclaimer. Also played something similar in Legacy with GSZ, so porting it to Modern once it got unbanned was unavoidable, haha

Hahaha, family, drums and Magic, what else can a guy want?

@@PaskSch That’s awesome! Hope you’re still out there casting 6/6s for 6

​@@fpawluszmtgI took a break because of those damn rings, getting back now!

@@hgmmsouza Damn, it’s been so long that I had even forgotten about the 80% win rate meme!!! So embarrassing!

@@SuperGinger92 It may come, it may not. I have fallen off love with what Amulet has become today in Modern.

Quizas, pero lo dudo. Ya le perdi el interes al mazo...

I play on Magic Online. There's a pretty large and active Premodern community as well, you can join the Discord in the link in the description of the video.

I have tried Safekeeper in the past in Legacy, and wasn't impressed. It could be added as a redundant "combo piece", but if we are playing 4 Sagas it's actually easier to have access to Orb through Reclaimer/KotR/Saga than Safekeeper which can only be found through GSZ.

@@fpawluszmtg good point. also i guess protecting titania is not necessary because with orb out the "combo" is instantly

Here we are!

Yeah, that first game opening hand said a very loud "welcome back".

@@marcschmidt320 I may try it out, but I am not a fan of how much the deck has changed and how different it looks now. Most of the cool things that I liked about it are gone, like the toolbox aspect, and it’s now more combocentric than ever, which i don’t find appealing. I may give it a shot, but I’m much more likely to try to work on Lands decks instead

​@@fpawluszmtgWe are very much on the same page. This deck you are playing here, is like 75-80% the same as something I've been brewing on lately. Mostly to replace my titan deck, after feeling just as you do! However I keep praying something will pull me back in, and get me more excited about using my bounce lands again. Haven't even bothered updating it since 2022 (real cards). At the same time, I've refused to sell them, solely because it's my favourite modern deck of all time.

@@Sheziran Yeah, definitely my proudest accomplishment as a content creator was coming up with a tier 1 deck that included my favorite cards 🥰

@@charlesfyfe3846 Waited and waited but nobody was playing Reclaimer, so I had to do something about that!

It's an interesting thought. Looting does raise the need for t1 plays, and with GSZ this deck is planning to use all of its mana every turn, so idk where in the curve you'd have the spare one mana to cast Looting in a way that doesn't impact the board whatsoever... Definitely an interesting thought, though! Probably worth testing as a late game CA engine!

@@Erweenie It was fun!

Steppe is always the 35th+ land I'd like to play. Already I don't have enough room for so many other lands I'd like to play (more Surveil lands, more Flagstones, Boseiju, more GQ/Tec Edge...) It's a card that has a pretty high ceiling, but an extremely low floor. Imo it's only really good when you are Crop Rotating into it to protect your 20/20 in Legacy.
