4000 IQ SIDEBOARDING in BO1 | MYTHIC Esper Doom Control | MTG Arena

[@aitorv657]

I was the first opponent, towards the end I had nothing besides Dreamtrawler and shatter. I didn't use the shatter because I figured I was dead anyway from all the pegasus tokens that were going to spawn at end step. In hindsight that itself wouldn't have killed me since it was 11 damage (I wrongly thought there was an additional token coming), but the Ugin I didn't know about would've done it anyway.

[@lmv2s]

Good game to watch.

[@mattd3978]

Well played game fam. Keep up the work

[@paolobocchini1153]

Shoutout to Anand with that Yorion Incarnation deck, what a cool idea for a deck.

[@this19suffering]

One day two esper control mages fought a battle for the ages. Legends say that they fought for an eternity, until one of them blinked so much with their Yorion, that the other could not shatter it.

When I first saw the multiple videos uploaded today, I got worried there wouldn’t be gameplay today. Huge sigh of relief here. That said, I’m excited to watch the other content too!

[@RafitoOoO]

This man will keep his streak until the day he dies and he'll probably have some pre recorded content to be uploaded after his death.

[@geex999]

59:28 I feel like the best advantage given by the raven's warning is that you get to know what's in your opponent's hand

[@DarkRuler2500]

Those were some juicy matches. Especially the first was awesome to watch. :)

[@crestfallenwarrior6996]

Another instant classic by CGB

[@gdundefined3850]

I love this deck. I was thinking a lot about a fae, raven, yorion deck lately. This is perfect, thanks so much for sharing and making great vids.

Don't know why you have the triomes in. You should let us know why in the intro. ;)

[@OverPwng]

Acts as dual-colored lands that you can cycle, there is nothing not to love

[@logan-870]

Triomes are dual lands that are better to draw late game than regular mana since you can cycle them if you have enough land.

[@KukulcanZ]

Last night had something similar to the first game; 49min of u/w yorion mirror that ended with the other player not having anything to draw anymore. That's the kind of match up i prefer

[@lifeisawesome1391]

When I saw esper doom in the title I was hoping to see Tegrid. She might be a bit janky, but there is something really cool about stealing the things that your opponent sacrifices.

[@Jimbob-4141]

Tergrid is definitely much better in commander, I get targeted a lot lol

[@ren8182]

I actually like using her Lantern to get rid of Treacherous Blessing when I can't manage to Doom it away.

[@lifeisawesome1391]

@@ren8182 That is a neat interaction I had not thought of

[@Erfivur]

The lantern is incredibly good on its own but my best experience with Tergrid herself so far was up against a cycling/zenith flare deck. Totally shut them down.

[@NamathCB]

Keep them coming! LOVE IT

[@carlitosbro]

55:28 that was going to be the SIXTH land in a row, what the hell shuffler

[@pm6828]

Decided to try this deck. The first match, I was up against monoblack control. I drew infinite cards, removed all their stuff, then eventually figured out how to kill them. It took 20 minutes. 10/10 would recommend.

[@pm6828]

The next match was a 32 minute slog facing rogues.

[@elnatanbitensky8314]

The Rune deck was really cool!

[@this19suffering]

I just played against this. I won with my weird black/grey Yorion control deck. It looks really cool and when I have all the cards, I will try it.

[@mrblondecpa]

Great video, CGB. Thanks, brother!

[@jeffreychang6620]

Maybe it's just me focusing on the shuffler but the it has been extra brutal for me too lately. Ive been getting a lot of 5 lands in a row games. Even in draft dropping inga a few times has scryed me triple lands 😱

[@mdrkosc7992]

Yes! finally a deck with Doom Foretold! I friggin love that card

[@jimmycarlson4871]

What a war that first game was. Awesome.

[@ViRUS-ni6nr]

How does one get to the Level of CGB? The knowledge in this guy is incredible. I've recently started playing Magic and have watched so much of it and I have learned so much so fast

[@2good2bu7]

He's been playing magic for more than 20 years. Just keep playing and eventually you'll be able to think on the same level.

[@kratix0469]

Can you play that rune deck one time?

[@WilliamWhitehead2014]

Great set of games, good analysis in game.

[@Drew-im7is]

I dont even have the patience to finishing watch the first game. Big brain CGB

[@ДанилаГалечьян]

I tried this enigmatic incarnation deck in platinum 1 and it's like really good! Even vs aggro

[@WizWiteKnight]

I watch the intro! So im going to ask a question you didnt answer. What about Niko for this deck? +1 on Yorion or Fae of Wishes seems like ridiculous value. Maybe 2 mainboard and -1 Yorion -1 Treacherous Blessing? Im two days away from playing Arena again to test it myself, but I cant wait to do so.

[@user-sq7ry5vx7t]

One of the best videos, all very interesting matches.

[@Sleepy12ftPanda]

Ah, the heart racing content of Azorius vs Esper.

[@randomstranger6873]

Loved those long battles, shame that the time invested in long games is not weighted in reward to climb the ranks. Good content Ty !

[@patrickspens497]

hey just fyi the triomes are basically the same thing as temples, you can use them to scry Raven's Warning cards to the bottom if the opponent has mill.

[@taylorclifford4555]

Nothing better than watching cgb while waiting for the mechanic to come fix my broken garbage truck 🚚

[@gijsrombouts]

Nice intro, but why do you run triomes? Nice video as always :)

[@liamcutfield5372]

The rogues player saying "nice!" after milling two lands with the enforcer, thinking that they improved your draw three. That's hilarious

Does somebody have the decklist of that Abzan Yorion Incarnation deck?

[@DudeMcAwesome]

Great vid today, I love the control matches. It feels like Magic, not turn right go.

[@313cardcollections6]

Now that's some Magic playing there, nice and brainy. Made me get my Yorian deck out for a spin. I still just don't like the Doom part, but torturing your opponent into rethinking thier gaming choices has some satisfaction.

[@MyBesso]

I always tried to get 4 color doom foretold to work, since I think the abzan ultimatum is way better than dance of the manse, and green also lets you run binding of the old gods, but then with blue you have omen of the sea and raven's warning.

[@Lukas-rv4lc]

Yeah and maybe a Kiora bests the sea God? I played this version a lot. And binding makes it so much better.

[@MyBesso]

@@Lukas-rv4lc Kiora is too expensive to play and its not something you want to sac with doom foretold. That's better in vorniclex lists like sultai

[@piotrek7628]

[@jesse4550]

Should have a Dream Trawler in SB. Raven's Warning let's you get creatures. Also with all that draw, you need a Seagate Restoration.

[@mattdawgpro]

Can someone explain what that double Yorion trick was?

[@clagen86]

1. Play Yorion with a Yorion already on the board 2. Sacrifice the NEW Yorion to the Legend Rule 3. Blink all relevant permanants including the Yorion 4. Blinked Yorion returns at end step with other blinked cards which triggers a 2nd Yorion blink 5. Blink again for extra value and to keep opponent from being able to interact with your board at sorcery speed as the 2nd blink will bring your stuff back at the end of their turn

[@AureliusMedusai]

Lol the intro is the main thing I watch cuz I'm trying to learn the game better

[@jgcooper]

great, another yorion deck. this will surely not make my games in arena miserable for the next few days.

[@StijnHommes]

24:15 Why didn't your opponent play Shatter the Sky to kill your creatures?

[@Elitehunter47]

That first game is magic at it's finest

[@alphagurlzrule]

“One game video” haha. I seriously have 45 minute matches sometimes in match ups like this. Not always but it happens and it is exhausting.

[@adamkampia]

Yay! I've been trying to make Raven's Warning good in about 6 different builds. Still not convinced it's a card that shouldn't be replaced by something else. It just fails to deliver value so often.

Why do you play the triomes?

[@swakton7185]

@cgb can u make a Video about the Sultai yorion deck that is unbeatable at the moment? It is just so tiring to play against and i tried literally anything to beat the deck. From fast aggressive Decks like mono White and grul to extrem control like azorius and dimir. I just cant find a way to win against it. Maybe you can build a deck to beat it. I just stop playing Arena because i played ~20 games today and atleast 10-15 games were against the Sultai yorion deck
