An Extremely Power-Full Simic Beatdown Deck | Vintage Cube Draft

Time Walk + Mox Emerald + Timetwister = Good Times. Sounds like a good equation to me!

It's strange how these just keep on being Soo entertaining long after i feel like I have seen every deck 😅 LSV is just a great host

[@lukeneslen3412]

The lack of a perfect meta is soooo refreshing nowadays

[@ContainsIt]

That's draft baby

[@jackl8025]

Cube is love, cube is life

[@trevorsmith8903]

The math on the permutations of cards seen/ cards in a deck are astonishing. Even the math on a 52 card deck of playing cards says that no 2 decks in the world has ever and will ever be in the exact same configuration. Look up the math on that if it sounds ridiculous. I know it sounds unreal but the math doesn’t lie…

[@pikejon]

Hey lsv it would help with your sound quality a lot if you add a high pass filter (low cut filter) to your recording or post processing chain. It would cut down the noise from bumping the microphone and people walking in other rooms. If you want starting point tips I'd try a 12db high pass at 100-200hz and see how it sounds. A tip - make sure to preview your recordings using headphones as a lot of speakers won't reproduce the low end fully, your videos tend to have a lot more low end than is needed for what is mostly just a human voice. Thanks for the great videos!

[@LSVargas]

Thanks - I’ll try incorporating this

[@RushingRiverSmoothStones]

I introduced Mack to my powered cube when he was in high school. He passed a P3P1 mox ruby while drafting mono red for a Rabblemaster. To this day we call a passed mox a Mack's Ruby to remind him.

[@XBomyX]

Hahaha used to talk about your drafts with a magic bud and after a while started saying: "look, here’s the thing…" when it was an LSV take 😂

[@pdt1060]

“Look, here’s the thing” is always the prelude to some top tier nonsense

[@PopeGoliath]

While he was agonizing over the breeding pool pic I was reciting the mantra in my head, "Eat your vegetables!"

[@nthnthms1212]

LSV always ragging on Tom never gets old.

[@jonathanrfisher]

Agree 😂 I’ve met Tom exactly once at a dinner and it was still enough to make the digs pretty funny.

[@Blyf]

Is there a backstory as to why lsv loves taking jabs at Tom?

[@Marksmaan]

I felt the heartbreak. That was such an awesome deck. True Name got to do its thing once, but Oko and Hullbreacher never got a chance to stick around. Never really got a good mox hand (except the one that got black lotus, sneak, inferno titan to undo it) Just shows how important interaction is. A Force or a V Clique even would've gone a long way. Your opponents had it, you didn't really. Not that you passed any either so it's just the way it worked out. It's a shame because I loved it, but I still enjoyed the vid.

[@SindarinElealar]

Well, he could've picked FoW over Mox Emerald... 😅

[@Marksmaan]

@@SindarinElealar Fair enough lol.

[@Lukester44]

I love hearing about the draft server drama 🤣

[@sjake8308]

Yeah, that was peak content. 😆

[@Andrew-eh7oh]

brutal. this deck was cracked.

[@PieEater1492]

I would love to see the Wooded Foothills vs Forth Eorlingas conversation haha

[@pauldaulby260]

What's doubly funny about it os the wooded foothills would have somehow been better in lsv's Main deck than the forth eorlingas

[@PieEater1492]

Lsv should say that in the chat just reignite the debate

[@enzol1010]

Would love to see how Beseech the Mirror plays in vintage cube.

[@elleeVee]

oh god yes i want this give it to me

[@alttiseppanen]

It would be pretty shit 1bbb and sac an artifact is a very heavy requirement for medium payoff

[@elleeVee]

"look, here's the thing" from lsv is always a prelude to some truly diabolical garbage and it's great every time

[@GSheff]

Only in Vintage Cube you get something like that G1T1... open an incredible hand with awesome ramp, just to get completely answered with a busted Lotus play... best format ever.

[@EmperorNapoleon1815]

I’m sure LSV did not take the Ignoble Hierarch because he is already a scientist, himself. Jokes aside, this deck was great. Lots of picks came together just the way you want to see it. Sad to see it get walloped by reanimator, though beating the T2 Lotus-Sneak-Titan was very satisfying!

[@jeffbriem]

Sometimes it just doesn’t matter because they always have it.

[@tomcadden8054]

"I'm a bit of a scientist myself" - If you know, you know

[@jerzysikorski4846]

Great video! :) Thank you so much for daily content LSV.

[@MarylandBF]

I'm somewhat of a scientist myself😂

[@thomasstone3480]

the other thing that means some nonsense is about to happen is 'i mean....'

[@Julian-gk8gf]

SPOILER that deck was great, deserved better 😔 which team won though??

[@sjake8308]

The world will never know. 😅

[@stevenashley27]

This will certainly be a ride. Can’t wait to see what LSV will concoct this draft

[@kyleferguson1729]

It hurt not seeing the Vizier being taken second time around after having devoted druid.

[@BirdNatureView]

This was an awesome and optimal draft! The deck was smooth, good lands and fantastic curve. Well done! Almost as good as my drafts ;) LOL

[@premejon8300]

It's a dream to be called a great player by LSV.

[@iclimbeverything2990]

Excellent games LSV!

[@keithvaskelionis7861]

I Love how Luis takes his beats... Much better than the kids that flip tables and walk out 😂 # whole reason I left the game 🙄 Too many over emotional nerds 😘

[@hamishfox]

I could be wrong as I'm no expert, but taking wooded foothills over fourth eorlingas seems completely reasonable to me depending on the situation.

[@sjake8308]

Their Discord disagrees. 😆 What you're missing is that if you the fetchland over Forth Eorlingus, you give the Forth Eorlingus to the other team.

[@griffenrobinette3944]

Did i miss something? Why during the etali living death turn did he not bounce the olliphant? With grief on the stack targetting subtlety did nothing

[@georgekent8300]

15:37 Not criticizing the pick at all, but if this isn't a Kinnan deck what is? LOL Kinnan feels super strong to me in arena cube, I guess maybe it's not up to snuff in the vintage?

[@gormosb]

Kinnan makes infinite mana with a bunch of the mana rocks and otherwise. It's a combo piece more than anything

[@MikeYang]

LSV, P1P1 would you ever pick Forth over Ancestral? If so, what % of the time would you do that?

[@sjake8308]

My guess is 0%. 😆

[@Scalpelex]

Another draft where LSV doesn’t pick Dream Halls and they don’t wheel.

[@CristianKrause1]

Hello lsv

[@jrjamesson]

kind of wild how two opponents were essentially in each other's lanes and still got what seemed to be very good reanimator decks. (or it was just the crazy lucky draws against you, maybe that.) not that you really had the chance this draft, but I'm thinking anti reanimator cards are worthwhile sideboard pickups.

[@sjake8308]

Sometimes everybody in a draft pod gets a good deck. You probably shouldn't overreact based on what you saw here: My guess is that LSV probably plays against Reanimator roughly once every other draft.

[@rezzytheskyguy]

Mtg content Goat.

[@sjake8308]

I still think Greg Hatch is the MTG content GOAT, but LSV is certainly the best right now.

[@RiseAgainstThe0rcs]

Does anyone else randomly wake up in the middle of these videos? I need less ASMR in your voice LSV 😂

[@jameskuhns3544]

Love the content, but I have straight up acquired misophonia from your sound setup. So, day 5 of asking for non-ASMR draft content😂

[@stephentownsend4352]

Do people actually say that Fourth Eorlingas is better than Ancestral Recall?

[@mtgbast]

I think that main deck was bad and the deck was much better with the RW Splash. 23 Mana sources in the UG version with curve ending at 4. LSV even got lucky with drawing his "top end" almost every game.

[@EbolaMuffins]

Before I watch the rest of the video, I'm mad he took fertile grounds over Chandra 😠

[@sjake8308]

Why? There are lots of good six mana plays in cube.

[@tomsmith4698]

i always x out the videos when people pick fourth earlingus just like, whoa that's not a magic card. it's from some other game

[@sjake8308]

Yeah, a lot of the cards now feel more like Hearthstone cards than MTG cards.

[@tomsmith4698]

@@sjake8308 I've never played HarthStoned or Yugio! or whatever so I'll take your word for it. THe other gamwe I was thinking about is elder dragon highlander

[@mattjernigan8799]

New school player here...only been playing since MTGA has been around. I really wish MTGO was more engaging to watch. Hoping for some WOE content soon! I appreciate the daily videos though LSV!

[@Fgp96]

I think we all can agree that Forth Eorlingas is an overrated card

[@sjake8308]

Nope, we can't. 😆

[@peeporiot9948]

Day 9 of asking LSV to only play with alternate arts in cube.

[@Falnky]

Some bad beats 🥲 Such a shame for an awesome deck, but sometimes that's Magic.
