2022 Challenger Deck: Dimir Control Unboxing

[@ChrisDinGR]

Thank you for taking the time unboxing these beginner decks.

[@bobfranklin2572]

This is definately my favourite. I don't like laying nor really playing against it, and I know it isn't super meta. But there's just so many solid classics in here I can't help myself.

[@MattcasterMage]

This is my favourite of the 4. Just needs a splash of white.

[@techpriest8965]

For wandering emp? I will keep it clean and play 2x Mordekainen or try to meme with Xanathar.

[@skillzmillz5604]

How do I play the cards that have a double side and night and day? I am old player that hasn't played in 16 years just started to get back in the game. All these new abilities these cards have are crazy lol need a dictionary to look all them up...nice videos of all these decks u have done

Usually explains on the card when to turn night and day. Should go buy some set booster boxes of midnight hunt crimson Vow.. Great set to make a WareWolf deck. Crimson Vow is good for vampire decks. You can get these set boosters for a great price. Only because Modern Horizons 2 came out killed everyone wallet. Plus collector boxes are limited. And are around 180$ those have huge potential because limited print on collector boxes. Love set booster tho. Regular booster box gives you one rare per pack. And maybe a couple packs have two rares. But in a set box. You usually get at least two rare or mythic. And you can get up to 4 in a set pack. And every set pack has at least one foil. Special lands too every few packs.

What is the best set for elf's?

[@MTGUnpacked]

Kaldheim and D&D mostly: scryfall.com/search?as=grid&order=name&q=type%3Aelf+legal%3Astandard

[@josephdevita2938]

I didnt know that these even came out. Thank you ill probably go pick then up this week.

[@sobbiess]

Seems like a neat deck, if it wouldnt be for standard rotation at September I would buy it right away

[@zekkozen2087]

Thanks for this, i was planning on buying one of these challenger decks and this one seems promising

[@nolimitbanks7318]

Real nice work. Appreciate your time.

[@williammustaffa]

I bought it too - Super fun to play!

[@windwrightmage]

Standard will rotate out but......not really cause wouldn't it then be considered a pioneer deck? Maybe? Also what is your favorite of the 4 2022 Challenger decks?

[@MTGUnpacked]

Correct. No longer Standard-legal, but still fine for Pioneer, though a bit underpowered for the format. Gruul Stompy looks the most fun to me👍

[@herald9204]

Seems like a fun deck!

[@Evan-pq1ql]

I’m new to the game, can I use these cards in commander as well?

[@MTGUnpacked]

Yes, nearly all cards are legal in Commander. You can check legality of any card in various formats via scryfall.com 👍

[@pepefrog6524]

Which deck is the best?

[@MTGUnpacked]

Define 'best?'

[@pepefrog6524]

@@MTGUnpacked best out of the box deck. Which would be the best for a 5 player game and be able to stand its ground against current decks?

[@MTGUnpacked]

I think Gruul Stompy or Dimir Control are the best out of the box, but you're still likely to lose vs current Standard meta decks without doing any upgrades or testing.

[@emmanuellephillips4711]

White Aggro or Dimir control are. Now most stores will let you play faceless haven if you don't upgrade the deck. But it is banned so you will end up having to replace that. As for Dimir you will steal out some wins even against current meta decks. It'll take you knowing the meta and bringing the right cards in and out of the side board. Also be very careful with a big creature wins control. They can easily have removal for your treats if you don't have counter spells to protect them. Personally I use the negates out of the sideboard in the main deck. Unless I'm going against white aggro.

[@pepefrog6524]

@@emmanuellephillips4711 would this deck be better out if the box than the lotus field one a few months ago gainst friends?

[@KlaireMurre]

as somene who just started playing the game with my mates who are also new challenger decks have been such a godsend. can't wait to mess around with each of them and just have a gay old time. and it's an excuse for me to be an asshole and play control bc it's funny

[@JDeeCee]

Cool deck. 😁👌🏻
