Broken on Day 1 | Green Machine | Foundations Standard

[@jdgarrison9913]

But what if I gave you an Archfiend, with only 1 oil counter?

[@McLovin63-j5n]

This is what I’ve been doing in my Zoraline Lifegain Deck lmao They usually sit there and realize you lose off the counters so I pay Fateful Handoff and let them lose instead 😂

[@paulomattos5876]

Crim deserves all of our love and respect

[@nerd_entangled]

That was such an amazing win

CRIIIIIIIIIMMMM

[@BennyBoyBlue]

I started watching your videos in 2020 when MTG Arena released. My best friend started playing and watching also, eventually becoming better than me and hitting mythic every season. He passed away in August and I’m not sure I will ever open MTG Arena again, but I wanted to stop by and watch a few games like old times.

[@rockosmodurnlif]

Sorry for your loss.

[@CharlyLPride]

Sorry for your loss Darling. Hope this video brought back good memories to you.

[@_JohnC_]

Gonna be that guy, missed lethal for Kona content in the first game before the Fumigate. That Kona cast gave them the 1 life they needed to survive

[@Slynch25]

He missed another at 9:45.

[@fabcm1]

He also lost 1 damege flipping a Lyonwar elves that was 2/2

[@AstoranSolaire]

Or when he flipped a manifested Llanowar elves over, making it a 1/1 not a 2/2, then attacked all, missing lethal by 1...

[@thomassabecky3055]

I was thinking that

[@nulshift]

CGB: "You got it, and then what" Me, to myself: "Fling? nah..." The opponent:

[@jdgarrison9913]

Yeah, wasn't expecting Burn Together from the Boros Deck. Neither was CGB.

[@bobwilson679]

Cmon CGB, you had the ability to tutor up another atraxa with archmages charm next turn, why not just double block with atraxa and elf?

[@marty_mcfly_jr]

@30:17 I just keep replaying this and it makes my day. Big smile. 🙂

[@tuomasronnberg5244]

>CGB at 30:23: Come at me, bro >Opponent: Comes

[@SerechII]

ayo?

[@ChoomHildyy]

21:56 “ it’s the implication” had me dyinggg 😂 We love Always Sunny

[@mile_high_topher]

I preferred "I go to 6. Then what?" 30:18

[@SpiritOfLenin]

Fun fact: you can have your arena Llanowar elves with that anime artwork for 1000 gold (or a bunch of gems too i guess), you can craft it for that amount through the deck builder for some reason! Its a cool little thing tbh. There's a few other anime styles you can craft as well, I think, but some of them are more expensive (like doubling season).

[@AdriftForWeeks]

What a disgusting deck. I immediately built it.

[@Eleiem]

30:28 You can see the moment CGB’s heart breaks lmao

[@valeman0]

Monstrous emergence can't be blown out. You choose the creature as it's cast and the damage is locked in. It's not a target creature you control.

[@brandonwalsh2160]

9:34 I was coming here to say the same thing.

[@r.mar.673]

I was going to say this too... but then kept watching and they tell him.

[@SpinAroundU]

as it resolves* but yes

[@brandonwalsh2160]

@@SpinAroundU its not as it resolves because if it was then removing the creature would fizzle the damage and that can not happen in this case. When you put the spell on the stack you choose to reveal or choose a creature in play and the spell then will have the power of the creature set, removing or changing the power after the spell is on the stack will not change that value.

[@SpinAroundU]

@@brandonwalsh2160 oh you're right mb, I read that it's a choice not a target, but I didn't catch it was an additional cost.

[@eliashigham8901]

This is the deck I’ve been dreaming of since they previewed those two cards in the foundations announcement

[@SiegfriedSTM]

They will shadow ban it anyway...

[@jtmogavero]

just be ready for disappointment. Every one game it does the cool thing, you lose 4 more by turn 5

[@eliashigham8901]

@ oh yeah it’s jank as hell but how can you resist t3 omni

[@burningpapersun1]

CGB getting hit with the callous sell sword was everything. 😂

[@MrBe56]

Mono green + Omniscience is hilarious. Turn 1 elf gonna be making standard insane for a while.

[@MusicMaster-jv9jn]

I'm so glad someone figured this out just as quickly as I did

[@LordDeViR]

30:23 then what? LOL Love your expression. ;) Keep up the great content mate.

[@noobknights]

Man, if you leaned just a tiny bit into Selesnya, Loran's Escape would have been absolute fire in that second game. Then again, I'm exactly the kind of person who ruins countless decks bending over backwards to beat every corner case that I lose to.

[@servalerror]

Tyvar's Stand does the same thing without needing to splash a color.

[@Lordidude]

​@@servalerrortyvars stand doesn't protect artifacts...

[@kunimitsune177]

'k but it's not selesnya, it's mono green.

[@cdawg0717]

I tried lorans escape for a while but the elves tapping for green seems better to just use a green hexproof spell to me

[@noobknights]

@cdawg0717 if only we still had Tamiyo's Safekeeping. I'm sure they'll print another one soon, but considering Surge of Salvation is also white, maybe it's shifted out of green's pie, which seems to be more about growing your creatures when you protect them

[@Kuryux]

7:40 ah yes, good old miss lethal!

[@spizzz7221]

Had someone double snakeskin to protect their creature from removal and combat damage then proceed to omniscience atraxa and the 7/7 dude with 7 keywords. No cards left in hand on turn 3. Fun,...

[@Salaundre]

Not gunna lie, I laughed when you got domed by the Callous Sell-Sword burn against the Boros agro deck.

[@schimpansengrinsen2023]

This Deck is insane. Great stuff!

[@WingsofSilver_Tsuba69]

This is a verrrrry fun idea that I've been planning for a bit aha my deck includes everything but red though, I feel like sometimes its gonna flop but others go crazy...if it doesn't work out I'll build this! Thanks bud!

[@Google-En-Passant]

Timeless SnT player: imagine what they have to do to mimic a fraction of our power

[@bki9840]

I will admit I thought "Omniscience, loop Atraxa, pass, that's all? No combo win, not even a hullbreaker lock?" but also it would be terrible if either of those were consistently achievable in standard. SNT in timeless is fine because the other decks are also doing bullshit stuff.

[@Obscuredinsight]

​@@bki9840 like dropping a veinripper on turn 1 lol

[@Google-En-Passant]

@Obscuredinsight a veinripper? There is a deck that can win with belcher on turn 1, and when it doesn't if often plays necro or Saint Elenda

[@4nc3st0r]

That’s why I don’t like or play timeless. I like low power formats

[@Obscuredinsight]

@Google-En-Passant lol no there isn't. I can only think of one way to make that happen and that's by drawing 3 dark rituals and a belcher in your opening hand. That's not consistent at all. Super cool that it could happen but I wouldn't count on winning a game by drawing 5 of my combo pieces in my opening hand. YUP called it lol that's exactly what you need at least 5 of your opening hand cards have to be either 3 dark rituals a swamp and a belcher. I also saw someone evoke grief sacrifice it then play 2 dark rituals to get a T1 belcher kill. That means your entire hand has to consist of all your combo pieces. Way too inconsistent to call that a good deck. especially considering the fact you can't really run any lands to make belcher work, so other than your combo pieces the rest of the deck is just filler cards.

[@MyNameIsXYlp]

25:12 Imagine someone watching this at their 30th birthday, realizing that the last 13 years flew past them like that lifegain trigger

[@aarlavaan]

I KNEW this was going to be a problem as soon as I saw Omniscience was going to in foundations.

[@SecularMentat]

Already seeing this deck out in the wild. Oof, going to have to run SOOO much more removal.

[@buttonasas]

Monstrous emergence doesn't "target" - it still deals damage even if the chosen creature on battlefield is dead. Even if it had more power than is written on the card, it does not get reduced by it dying - you don't look at the card, you look at the (imaginary) creature. However, the damage can get reduced if the creature's power decreases while still on board. so -X/-X does work against this.

[@railander]

It's crazy that we have this in standard now. Standard is like historic light, completely lost it's identity as a more restricted format.

[@Krunschy]

I agree, but Foundations really seems like the smallest offender here 😅

[@Khaos421]

“The epic smasherings!” 😂

[@MonsieurBright]

Put on the sunglasses 😎

[@frozentyphoon2049]

Hey, that's the deck from that one show that ya played on!

[@DarthTUK]

30:15 clip it as a short and name it "Hubris" 😉🙃 love you CGB 💜

[@pneuma08]

Never thought I'd see Omniscience combo in standard.

[@DaveBlackrose]

That last game really is your average Yugioh turn lmao

[@david21216]

I wish yugioh let people could draw that much…. But otherwise yeah

[@sombreromonkey3995]

That first orzhov de k was pretty solid ngl

[@artor9175]

I just played against someone playing this combo. I thought I was kicking their butt until they got things together. Then it took like 5 minutes for them to complete their turn. They had a dozen triggers before they even tapped any mana.

[@Durbikins]

16:17 Hey, I've seen this one before!

[@valeman0]

Thoughts on run away together? It doesn't target so it gets around all the ward/hexproof white enchantment nonsense

[@jessemorris6722]

Fauna shamen is a decent add to this list to make sure you can get to Kona!

[@Guevon_Pajaro]

lol I can't lie, you threw me for a loop when you pulled out this monogreen deck at shuffle up -- but hey, its a pretty cool deck

[@danbecker9805]

Love the final comment! Missing 2x Hauntwoods Shrieker. Can't waste Mythic Wild Cards on that...

[@1104Tea]

when the set with kona came out i used it to just cheat out Emrakul, the World Anew, or some other scary Eldrazi. Most people would just concede as soon as it hit the board.

[@Kamiken1]

I made some changes to this deck and it has been much more consistent. I added some blue for 4 Make Your Own Luck and 4 Step Between Worlds. Also added an immodane's so if I can make my own luck into a plotted omniscience I get to combo kill the next turn. The make your own luck and step between worlds make the deck super consistent when an Omniscience comes down and I don't have to worry as much when I want to drop a naked Koma.

[@Lordidude]

9:40 You can chose a card on the field. They can't interact with the spell, even if they can remove the crearure.

[@XaeroGames]

love it!

[@SalemPT258]

Can you make a video about the new golgari sacrifice that win Lille? Deck looks fun and wanted to see you playing it

[@ImARichard]

Foundations standard is going to be fun 👀

[@affcordeiro]

Im Portuguese and lets say that Kona decks are very pleasant,

[@painfulelegy812]

Any thoughts on maybe invasion of ixalan to directly pull the beastie out of the deck?

[@kalebarnold7802]

Had lethal on board at 7:18 lol makes me wonder if these are really ladder matches or playing with friends for content😅

[@venger5705]

Lets GO C G B

[@joallenescartin9620]

that sell-sword tho! HGAHGAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[@MattTorres]

looking forward to 5 years of this lol

[@bobboberson6664]

I anticipate bans every 2-3 months

[@zacharymichael9718]

I'm not at all disappointed I didn't catch a single spoiler for this set. Seeing most of my elves back in standard is actually making me wanna play arena again. Also, best hydra is back?

[@KurmaZ381]

Have you seen Kykar Zephyr Awakened? I think it could be some fun in brawl

[@Skislopesjoe]

Tried the deck out it seemed neat. Honestly if you want big creatures fast and reliably you’re better off playing squirming emergence in bo1.

[@michaelziehl191]

at around the 30:00 mark, he could have declared atraxa as a blocker, then when he gains priority before damage, tap atraxa for a green with relic of legends to cast snakeskin targeting atraxa, thus trading both creatures and going to 22 life instead of 6. i think he could have won that game

[@Diegojavbau]

Dark times are coming harry , winter is coming , this will be long 5 years

[@Zhaddow]

Built my wife a new deck around this turn 3 principle with omniscience and atraxa, but with more graveyard recursion, the rakdos recursion enchantment and valgovath cause you can keep slamming legenedaries that will die and they take the damage to the face as you play everything because of the rakdos and it’s hilarious

[@j.t.lennon177]

just started the magic video game last night. it was ok. kind of stuck on bolas rn but it wiil be ok :)

[@BrotherHisham88]

I’m a new player and can craft one deck. Is this a deck that I should craft? I’m thinking about a red / aggro deck. But I also like everything but blue.

[@Crushanator1]

I would probably play with free decks or what you can build for now. The meta is always wild for 2 weeks or so, and Foundations is a big set

[@PwndNewbie]

Do you forget you have Monstrous Emergence in your hand? you kill the tracker and get your Relic back.

[@johnathanversteeg3666]

In regards to game one whats the 5 cost card that combod?

[@SatanicDemiGod]

i swear, every day im happier and happier that i quit magic. its way more bearable when i only watch others play

[@omeganautstk9951]

So this is why I keep seeing this

[@kiernanoh]

Very minor optimization, this deck should replace 4 forests with 4 hushwood verge (the white green dual land from duskmourn) Makes atraxa just a tad easier to cast if for some reason plan A combo doesnt work for literally no downside

[@allenwalsh1180]

Not sure if this is true, but I don't think that Monstrous Emergence cares if they remove the creature that you choose, since choosing the creature happens as part of the cost and isn't targeted. Does anyone know if that's the case?

[@OlgaZuccati]

it is exactly like that

[@starmanda88]

It do in fact be like that

[@WyllBG3]

Not blocking the emberheart was one of the dumbest plays i ever saw cgb do in the channel. Big win for the mono red mages. Shame for the Dojo...

Yeah I never build or use wild cards till a meta settles like 2 weeks to a month after a set. Some decks flop.

Can you manifest an Omniscience and blink it to get it in play?

[@EdgePitSwing]

ya

[@bvieffect]

Weird ask, I know who cares, but could you start saying Mesa Hawks, cause that sound clip you use to simulate a "falcon" is a Red-Tailed Hawk. Videos are always great and I appreciate the content. Take care!

How long do you think it'll take for Wizards to ban Omniscience? It's worse than leyline tbh

[@MrLemno1]

at 9:30 why does he choose reveal? why would choosing a creature he controls allow for an instant to be played but revealing wont?

[@GalacticBlader]

one counter spell and this deck shits itself

[@theninedivides6851]

Ahhh coming from brawl and seeing omniscience, people who never played braw but instead only plays standard is in for a huge shock lol

[@Bizarre404]

You can get it turn two with manifest dread and splash portal. Unwanted remake your own one drop and pray baby

[@michaelsilk275]

I was thinking this deck needs some card draw like Tribute to the World Tree.

[@ayan.rodrigo]

Is this a viable bo1 deck?

[@CoL_Drake]

oh boy i need a cat deck in standard

[@DiamondzFinder_]

Couldn't you have given that heartfire hero hexproof to save you?

[@gabrielarantest]

Came here to find this.

[@FalconDS9]

no.. snakeskin vale says " a creature you own" ... had the same idea, not working

[@DiamondzFinder_]

@@FalconDS9 Oh, that's a shame then... I feel like a card that gives a creature an opponent owns hexproof (or perhaps shroud?) is design space that could work.

[@redjuantanamo]

bloodthirsty conqueror will likely end up on the standard banlist. i think it's just inevitable. yes, it can be beaten, but it's such an easy turn 4-5 win that the meta will be just conqueror decks and counter-conqueror decks.

[@novalution9971]

😤 You didn't post the vid where I shut down everything you dropped with mono white, every atraxa and even the hydra 😂

standard just feels like explorer light now. IDK how to feel about it yet.

[@lisalatif3841]

So they ban leyline but now have turn 2 Omni got it

[@petrri323]

The new 60 card 1v1 commander format is broken… Hold on… I’m being told this is standard somehow…. Every card being designed for commander REALLY pushes the power level. To think an iteration of OMNISHOW is standard legal… absurd.
