[@shanehof1022]

Have you thought about using Pirate’s Pillage as a way of drawing cards and storming with treasure tokens with thousand year storm?

[@LyricBent]

Surely this deck should have a single Banefire in it so that you can Banefire someone X = 199 with a storm count of like 12 and dome them for several thousand

[@MTGGoldfish]

Hmm, that does sound sweet, although you might die of old age while you crack the 199 Treasure tokens.

[@alexisrodriguez7127]

[@AcePlaysTCGs]

Certainly inspired me to build the deck. It's kind of pricey for a fun little deck, but I've been wanting to build a deck around this card since I saw it. I'm just glad it's actually viable.

[@Drakksy]

I think we should name the deck "Grapeshock"

A Banefire or 2 would be nice for uncounterable win. Maybe it's not needed tho.

[@kyleledermann2473]

@@FableErrejeDMR I meant more as a backup win con. This deck can control the board so well and filter so well that youre gonna hit your bounties and ppl don't counter that card for some reason. This deck seemed to be able to make a ton of Mana with ease and Banefire is just a backup uncounterable win con. It would still work with the storm card as well copying to make multiple Banefires.

[@michaelburt9888]

That's like using Overflowing Insight. Great style points, but really unnecessary.

[@SilverAlex92]

This deck was awesome. Im super impressed with mssion briefing, especially with it turning into ultra mega past in flames on the combo turns, while holding the deck up with a bit of self milling and extra removal, counters or cantrips when needed.

[@MTGGoldfish]

Yeah, Mission Briefing is great in this deck.

[@animatedbreak]

I can listen to this guy talk about grass growing, let alone Magic. Love the content. Awesome stuff here!

[@boyshinboiv6662]

why are you hating on risk factor?

[@WhiteyMcFly1]

The way I see it, it's because it's one of those weird cases where you can only play it as one of the first few spells you play in a turn; most reasonably, storm count 2-3. That's because this card draws you 3 cards if your opponent opts to not take the damage, which means that once your storm count is too high, casting this just mills you instantly... which also means that, while it's a good card to already have in your hand when you combo off, it's also potentially dead if you draw it mid-combo.

[@renanceleste2253]

Risk Factor isnt a combo card, is a burn card that for some reason has a graveyard effect that discard 1 to draw 3, card is the best red card for counter burn/aggro/wizard, that damn card is a monster

[@zylaji]

Of course Risk Factor is bad in this deck, but Seth was hating on risk factor in the UR aggro deck, where it's actually a very good card. I think he's assuming it's like Browbeat, when it's actually the best burn spell in Standard thanks to jump-start.

[@Atmapalazzo]

It's better than browbeat, but It's pretty hard to say it's the best burn spell in standard.

[@outshimed]

It's a trap card. I was psyched on it at first but I rarely wanted to see it when playing with it.

[@PlutoDarknight]

My favorite card in the whole set. Love to finally see it in action. May this storm never end!

[@MTGGoldfish]

It's soo much fun!

[@5fwwfw]

Seth, seriously ? Risk Factor will haunt standard until the end.That card is so annoying to play against.

[@MTGGoldfish]

It does keep killing me a lot, that's for sure.

[@GaleeStorm]

I hate it already too

[@5fwwfw]

It always feels like the risk factor copies are endless

[@Joshuakim378]

[@N1ghthavvk]

I play this deck on MTG Arena, but instead of Brass's Bounty I'm using Omniscience which is the slower, more potent version. It worked twice in 5 games so far (with only one copy each), super fun and my opponents watched me with glee going off (Nice!)

[@MTGGoldfish]

Awesome! Omniscience sounds fun!

[@notmynormalusername1]

I was tricked by KZbin's "story" into thinking this was a new video. Saw you scry after mull to 6 and realized what was up. Lol! Would love to be back in the era of no spoiler-intros though.

[@Maku_GG]

Seth is the only person to find opponent playing turn 1 swamp "interesting"

[@jeremyw5231]

How do you feel about Pirate's pillage? While you do have to discard a card, you draw two and create two treasure. Mixing that with multiple spells gives you multiple treasure to help you storm off.

[@BrettScheinert]

match 1 game 2, could have cast thousand year storm immediately after brass' bounty resolved bc the opponent was tapped out, right? this deck is such *gas* when it gets going. haha.

[@GaaradancepartyX]

this deck could use a niv-mizzet in the sideboard that card is bonkers

[@ironocy496]

It's nearly unbeatable if you untap with it and have a way to protect it.

[@MTGGoldfish]

Could work.

[@russellanderson8844]

I was about to say the same thing I'm actually thinking of building this what would you drop for it though

[@SirDerpinmire]

If you play instants with thousand year storm, play instants in response to thousand year storm to get extra copies. Eg. In g3 of jeskai you could have played shock then before the thousand year storm copying triggers play another shock, and you deal 8 damage rather than 6 since the triggers both say you've cast 2 spells this turn

[@lastdracon]

Could this deck be made for a modern format? If so any chance we can get a modern version of it?

[@rockgod227]

This deck perfectly fits the marriage of chaos, insanity and power that Izzet is known for in the lore... it's beautiful. Add Epic Experiment to the deck and play it on Modern!

[@Illianor123]

Lots of people seemed to be surprised by how effective risk factor has been in burn based decks. Deal 4 to the face at instant speed (not great). Then draw 3 at instant speed for 3 is amazing.

[@Goujiki]

Seth forgot to factor in the risks ;)

[@joshuaphua690]

Every time Seth says "Ral", I swear he is channelling some sort of cat spirit because he keeps mewling out "MrrrRal". It is HILARIOUS though. Don't ever change, Seth! XDXD

[@kyleledermann2473]

Risk factor is underrated in a pure burn build. Like 1 more decent burn spell and that deck will be real

[@grim3646]

Kyle Ledermann we kind of already have a burn archetype through wizards

[@kyleledermann2473]

@@grim3646 yeah. I feel like it's a piece away from being a top tier deck. Right now I feel like mono red aggro is just better. I could be wrong though. The format is young.

[@Insomnizak]

That's funny because I've literally been building a thousand year storm deck as well lol. But mines more janky, plays goblin electromancer, splashes green for a single spell(life from the ashes), and plays a lava Axe(simply because my friend said a long time ago that lava Axe sucked, which is true, but I want to see their face when I kill them with it lol

[@MTGGoldfish]

Killing with lava Axe seems pretty satisfying.

[@maestergallen]

The thing about risk factor is that you need to see it as a 3 mana boros charm. It is unplayable in a lot of decks, but if you want to have just any 4 dmg burn it's pretty good. The only question now is, how good is a 3 mana boros charm in standard?

[@akuyara4420]

i still think that risk factor will throw some waves in the new standard. The instant speed and the jump start are super relevant and as we saw in the second match, for some decks it just doesnt matter what you pick.

[@Xephos]

WHAT I LEARNED IN BOATING SCHOOL IS: Firemind's Research seems like an amazing control finisher and UR control seems like my deck of choice for this standard.

[@ripnifamysweetwaifuineverg6208]

Why not add white

[@andyik9009]

i love this deck! really entertaining to watch. nice vid

[@AcePlaysTCGs]

I know you mention Crackling Drake at the end, but with Mission Briefing... what about Arclight Phoenix? If I wanted to fit that into the build since the surveil could hide it in the graveyard until I'm done storming and then cap things off with a haste flyier for 3.

[@NexGenRogue]

Can't wait till you play Experimental Frenzy.

[@dr6ke]

that card is actually nuts.

[@MTGGoldfish]

I'm sure it will be coming!

[@Joshuakim378]

Experimental frenzy is the scary card mono red needed. Move on Hazoret bring on the Experimental Frenzy combos

[@miscellaneousmerchandise4160]

I saw some temur version of this deck that ramp with green to go of a bit quicker but I think they sacrific consistency

[@CSDragon]

37:28 did you just bolt-snap-bolt for 20 damage?

[@ernestc5641]

Risk Factor is insanely good with goblin electromancer. Cast it for 2 mana, so a 2 mana 4 dmg spell or draw 3, then jump start it to do 40% of their life total in 4 mana or draw a bunch. It works wonderfully in burn wizards to the point where I’d put it at tier 2 at least in Standard.

[@kaszael]

I just watched the deck tech and I'm so giddy! Hope it works! I personally would have tried to fit in a Risk Factor or two ;)

[@starluigi767]

Risk factor is really bad in this deck considering it tosses burn in a all or nothing fashion

[@kaszael]

yeah, I know, you could actually deck yourself if you're not careful: Me "I cast Risk Factor with a "storm" count of 10". Opponent "draw 33 cards". Me "I have 30 left in my library....". I guess I'd let them resolve one by one until I drew another instant I can cast that would finish the opponent but I know it's not the most optimal of spells in this deck. Just fun :p

[@adamgrotto8163]

What on earth could possibly make you think risk factor is anything but a rediculously good card? It's draw AND burn and EACH copy is worth 6 cards or 8 damage... at instant speed for 3 mana... how could that be bad/horrible/unplayable in ANY universe? Am I missing something?

[@DontStopTheHustle]

It's a tad slow for burn but you're right, it's a crazy amount of reach for burn. Thats exactly what red needed.

[@the_snakelicious]

It's slow for Modern Burn, but not for Standard Burn.

[@sjdhrjrjejdhdhsh]

45:53 I think the better play was Strike their face and then next hit them for 10 off of research. I also think you would have a better time competing with Wizards if you splashed white instead of black for Deafening Clarion.

[@MTGGoldfish]

Yeah, WIzards is rough.

[@DarkThomy]

Would have never thought we would hear one day "We're storming off in standard !"

[@adamramistella3117]

I know it's almost a do nothing because you don't have a lot of surveillance but the 2 mana enchant that shuffles your graveyard back in to your library would be nice

[@DarkneszFalls]

Just out of curiosity, how would a card with storm interact with thousand year storm? Say we are at Strom = 5 and you cast grapeshot with TYS out, do you end up casting 11 copies?

[@TheSLATEcleaner]

Yes

[@DarkneszFalls]

@@TheSLATEcleaner Thanks, I thought so, but I just wanted to make sure. I haven't read the text of TYS since it was spoiled so wasn't too familiar with the wording on it. It would be busted if it copied for every storm trigger.

[@iwakuralain3064]

Sadly, I don't think that the cast trigger on grapeshot is copied by thousand year storm.

[@TheSLATEcleaner]

Yeah, if you cast it with 5 other spells cast you would have grapeshot, a storm triggered ability copying grapeshot 5 times, and a thousand-year storm trigger making X copies of grapeshot, where X is the number of instants and sorceries cast that turn by you. So, importantly, you could have storm of 5 but one of the spells cast was your opponent's (or a non-sorcery, non-instant spell by you). A great example would be if you have Thousand-Year Storm in play and your opponent casts Opt in response to you leading on Desperate Ritual. If they didn't find anything and you continued by casting a second desperate ritual, then a manamorphose, then a serum visions, then a grapeshot (which would likely be incorrect, but this is simply for example), you would end up with only 10 grapeshots on the stack.

[@y3tti627]

Seth please put thousand year storm into a modern storm list!! (For another against the odds)

[@BuckysKnifeFlip]

My thinking was ghirapur orrey and all in on the jump start plan with Risk Factor and Manamorphose and other rituals.

[@MTGGoldfish]

Sounds like it could be fun!

[@MrCytree]

In a thousand year storm scenario if you banefire for say, x=20, does only the first copy do 20 and all other copies fizzle or do all copies go off at x=20, oooorrrrr do you choose x at each instance of the copy that storms off?

[@nkandas]

Secrets of the Golden City seemed lack luster. If you are storming off with ascend, chemister's insight gets the job done. Do you think we pull Secrets of the Golden City, and maybe move another shock or some other sideboard card to the main board?

[@MTGGoldfish]

Yeah, we can get away with cutting Secrets. Not sure what to play in the place though.

[@JoshuaSohn]

Unmoored Ego :D :D :D

[@slyguy183]

Keeping in 4 shocks and lighting strikes vs the dimir deck without boarding in the 5 counters??? And then boarding out the card draw too?

[@offeral]

Had someone play this against me using gates/Doublecast/Circuitous Route...that was a gross turn 5, then dropped Mastermind's Acquisition to fetch their win con from their side board...it was amazing to watch.

[@FaunKeH]

Didn't think this deck had enough removal to hold on to play the Storm enchantment, but surprisingly resilient. Only coming down against super fast aggro/burn it seems. Could Goblin Electromancer help decrease your mana costs (pseudo ramp) for spells?

[@MTGGoldfish]

Electromancer is weird. Since we don't have any other creatures it will almost always die to removal. Maybe Primal Amulet could work in the ramp roll.

[@sirkickassalot123]

[@benhiller4]

Do you think this deck is playable in arena or will the shorter turn clock time you out before comboing out?

[@perrilloux]

I feel like Niv should be in the deck instead of Ral. His effects are more synergistic, since they lead into more degerate combo draw/pinging.

[@mixmastermind]

Barely Remembered he's not in the same spot on the curve

[@Rumpsteakinator]

Also his card draw is not 'may', so you can easily mill yourself out. It also just isn't needed, since untapping with storm usually just wins

[@MTGGoldfish]

I like Ral as an additional removal spell that sometimes does other things too. Niv-Mizzet is a bit more challenging since we already have four Thousand-Year Storms as six-drops.

[@TheEstevann]

SuchiniLP he’s pinging for every draw so unless your opponent has more life then u have cards in library then you should be fine

[@Morfinblood]

I think Niv sohuld be put in sideboard instead of 2nd Ral

[@Bush_Striker_of_Towers]

21:00 unless I’m wrong, if you had banefire you would have done over 1000 damage at that point.

[@Firebird4Life]

Why does this deck not run at least a one-of Banefire? You have like 100 Treasures when you storm off, why not just have uncounterable Banefire as a backup plan?

Was reprinted in M19, no?

[@MTGGoldfish]

It's painful in the manabase with Mission Briefing. Could see it as a one-of though, maybe. Normally though, on the turns where we have to discard to hand size we just keep the right combination of spells that allow us to win the next turn so it doesn't matter too much.
