Hey, really liked the explaining of evoke in the beginning, the little eye-icons in hand, the delirium counter and quick reminder how expensive a beta version of lightning bolt is. Your videos are getting better and better. Thanks a lot for the editing effort you put into these videos!

[@CemichalJesus]

Andrea forgetting his bauble trigger and not drawing made me feel less lonely

[@CardmarketMagic]

It can happen.

[@FallDownDontGetUp]

Literal seconds after he missed it “I cannot afford to miss a draw step”

[@schrottinator]

I love how Andrea basically is an ambassador for Blood Moon in (almost) every video.

[@CardmarketMagic]

And he keeps getting away with it!

[@jonathanvalko486]

Thank you for actual paper coverage. Was very enjoyable to watch. Love magic but can’t get into watching arena or MTGO

[@CardmarketMagic]

Our pleasure!

[@liammarkey6933]

Same

[@hurenopa]

Great production value and love mengu as guest! Was a little painfull how he forgot his drc and bauble triggers or maybe there where some sequencens cut in post production... we are all to spoiled from our digital clients :D keep up the hustle guys! Love seeing paper content with so much effort in it!

[@julienbled5055]

Great job ! When you combine the excellent quality of a well-edited Cardmarket paper video and the Mengutide fun, you get a really nice modern video ! Please do more of these !

[@CardmarketMagic]

Thank you so much!

[@AaronRotenberg]

25:19 Ragavan gets a dedicated 💰 edit on the card. An accurate representation of Modern deck prices.

[@tiagodagostini]

That is a result of modern horizon2 being the most powerful set even ahd being printed in reduced quantities due to WoTC fear of the pandemic effect. This edition will require an almost full reprint to fix it.

[@chuckwagon3718]

Mengu probably shouldn't have known that he was going against Orzhov Ephemerate in G1

[@jii-ro7083]

Mengucci just casually playing Beta bolts. Thats spicy

[@FalloutFan011]

Howdy Cardmarket - Magic and others! I have been subbed for awhile at this point, and after having my previous list go up against PleasantKenobi, I thought I'd throw another list into the ring and see if it's played It's a list that I fell in love, and has been a pet deck of a streamer I watch called Aspiringspike, and the list today is a Jeskai Phoenix list Here's the exact list: Mainboard: Lands: x4 Flooded Strand x2 Hallowed Fountain x2 Island x4 Scalding Tarn x2 Spirebluff Canal x3 Steam Vents Non-creature spells: x4 Consider x4 Thought Scour x4 Serum Visions x3 Gut Shot x4 Lightning Bolt x4 Faithless Salvaging x4 Faithful Mending x4 Manamorphose x4 Prismatic Ending Creatures: x4 Arclight Phoenoix x4 Demilich Sideboard: x3 Blossoming Calm x3 Path to Exile x4 Cleansing Wildfire x2 Ashiok, Dream Render x3 Wear//Tear Hopefully this list gets played! Would love to see someone other than me pilot this list in a modern match :D :D

[@CardmarketMagic]

Have you got a list to submit?

[@tiagodagostini]

i had a very very good result rate against murktide with an Orzov deck (a bit less focused ont he blink and mroe on the card advantage)

[@Sillimant_]

crazy what difference in price a white border can make. I got a playset of revised bolts for less than a tenth of a single beta bolt

[@julientrudel8296]

super video as asual and next time can you play a Boros Burn or Naya Human. Thank you

[@CardmarketMagic]

Great suggestion! A list to propose?

[@alessandroperrone6215]

28:55 Why Mengu didn't simply kill the grief at sorcery speed with the Heat?

[@Shortened2Max]

He was trying to get more value of his unholy heat, hoping he could kill it after Jamin paid 2 mana to equip it. If it worked, it would’ve made him waste that mana, giving Andrea a slightly better chance to catch up. They explained it in the video.

[@2011vortex]

Hey Andrea is there! Awesome :)

[@CardmarketMagic]

Yes! Thank you!

[@kiskacsA17]

I loved the game and I would be realy happy if you guys coud try this 8-Rack deck. I have been playing testing it and I think it coud hold its weight in the competitive meta right now. Here is the deck list for the deck. 1 Takenuma, Abandoned Mire 9 Swamp 4 Urza's Saga 2 Mishra's Factory 3 Nurturing Peatland 1 Castle Lochtwain 4 Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth 4 Inquisition of Kozilek 4 Thoughtseize 4 Fatal Push 4 Raven's Crime 1 Collective Brutality 1 Funeral Charm 2 Shrieking Affliction 4 The Rack 1 Pithing Needle 2 Nihil Spellbomb 1 Expedition Map 4 Smallp0x 4 Liliana of the Veil Sideboard: 1 Hex Parasite 2 Void Mirror 4 Leyline of the Void 2 Karn, Scion of Urza 1 Collective Brutality 2 Bontu's Last Reckoning 2 Legion's End 1 Pithing Needle

Did Andrea not draw from the serum visions turn 4?

[@classicsbav]

The last match was on fire

[@CardmarketMagic]

🔥🔥🔥

[@Fanofstuff]

2 turns in a row of not casting anything underblood moon i think was massive misplay, yeah its unfortunate he had tripple bolt, but youre not playing around murktide either, if you manage to stick an unkillable creature that draws lifelinks and puts him on a 2 turn clock, you auto win. You also have no main deck answer to bloodmoon, so your only plan is either, pray mengucci does nothing and you get turns to rng basics, or play batterskill/put into play with the stoneforge (skip an attack), equip it to stoneforge and automatically win

[@RG-bh6jp]

Could the blink deck have won g1? Get kaldra with sfm, t5 get it in play and equip with sword, deal 9 and leathal next turn?

[@CardmarketMagic]

Maybe that would've been the better line. I might've been too focused on "stabilizing" with Batterskull's lifelink. -Jamin

[@RG-bh6jp]

@@CardmarketMagic Totally a valid play! :)

[@superavennation]

@@CardmarketMagic passing two turns in a row and adding nothing to board and just flickering a darcy lost that game.

[@tiagodagostini]

Remember you knew both player hands, he did not. But surely would allow him to outrace

[@MrPiotrV]

@@tiagodagostini yeah but doing nothing is def the worst possible choice. could have easily used the stoneforge to put the batterskull into play and then attach it to the stoneforge and gg, for example. there's nothing in his deck that can handle that.

[@walleroyale2020]

Can you play mono black coffers? I promise it’s fun!

[@CardmarketMagic]

Have you got a decklist to give us?

[@ranchpanda7932]

I know this video is old, but I think the Orzov deck would benefit from running some tidehollow scullers. Its additional hand disruption, and because its W/B it can be pitched to both Grief and Solitude if necessary

[@Doublecake17]

Ah yes modern, an interactive format. Gotta love it lmao.

[@hermelin12]

Especially game3 was intensely interactive :)

[@andreabonaffini5341]

We want more mengu videos!

More are on their way! :) -Jamin

I think in G1 the Santifier should have exiled Persist from Jamins graveyard. Didn't matter but I think the card says "all graveyards".

T1 your grief does exactly what it’s supposed to minus a body. You traded 2 cards for 2 cards. If you take counterspell and then he bolts the thing in response you still did take a lot from him.

[@jonkurp6463]

Am i missing something, or did Jamin mess up at about 12:21? Why dont block DRC when your creature has prot red? isnt it free? and then you would have the touch the spirit realm for murktide afterwards

[@jonkurp6463]

And since he didnt block or do anything with his Stoneforge Mystic, he could have attacked with it and atleast get an extra card

[@Dylan-vs6sf]

Delirium was up and under delirium DRC has flying. Stoneforge Mystic does not have flying His original plan was most likely to use Stoneforge to put batterskull into play. However double lightning bolt on end step means he had to deal with DRC or he dies.

[@jewski6852]

Man watching him not play the challice on 1 and play the acadeems for 3 turns strait was painful

[@bigtian8133]

is this just scam but a year ago?

[@MrPiotrV]

That g1 was a complete throw O_o and g3 you had 2 or 3 chances to play a chalice on 1 while he was tapped but you kept on passing for some reason.

[@Kakerate2]

For the person piloting, I'm going to give some lines of play for this deck because they can get tricky. First; Gifts Ungiven - Fetching 2 cards and failing to find 2 more is a possible line, it allows you to bin 2 cards, enabling Finale of Promise. Otherwise, your picks will be dependent on whether you have Electro in hand or an As Foretold in play. With AF in play, I typically fetch a Crashing Foothills, Restore Balance, Finale of Promise, and whatever 4th card is best. Regardless of what oppo picks, you will be able to cast a suspend spell. Electrodominance - X=0 pretty much always. EOT (for oppo) getting a Crashing Foothills out T2 can put a pretty fast clock on. Ancestral Vision - Worthy target of Electrodominance if you topdeck it T2, otherwise I would just Suspend it T1 (assuming no AF in hand). This card IS blue, it makes a good pitch to FoN in a pinch. Restore Balance This is the main card of the deck. You want to have a suspended Gargodon so that you can sac lands and creatures. The ideal play is casting this, making both players discard to 0 lands, 0 cards in hand, and 0 creatures. Without a W6, the opponent is fighting an uphill battle. Gargodon - Just wanted to note that this card ETB with haste when you suspended it. Otherworldly Gaze - Pretty simple, you just want to get cards into your graveyard that you don't need. You *can* play first turn, but I prefer playing it out on my 2nd turn since you will have more information at that time. Finale - Theres a really weird play where you can just not play a land, discard a Foothills, and then T3 cast it with Finale. //deck 4 Spirebluff Canal 4 Steam Vents 2 Fiery Islet 1 Shivan Reef 2 Polluted Delta 2 Flooded Strand 1 Misty Rainforest 1 Scalding Tarn 1 Island 1 Tolaria West 1 Cascade Bluffs 4 Otherworldly Gaze 3 Lightning Bolt 1 Abrade 1 Gifts Ungiven 1 Muddle the Mixture 2 Fury 3 Force of Negation 4 Greater Gargadon 4 Electrodominance 4 As Foretold 2 Finale of Promise 3 Ancestral Vision 4 Crashing Footfalls 4 Restore Balance //sideboard 4 Leyline of Sanctity 1 Chalice of the Void 1 Dress Down 3 Shattering Spree 1 Ashiok, Dream Render 1 Mystical Dispute 1 Hurkyl's Recall 2 Nix 1 Relic of Progenitus

The fury ban was not that effectual. Rakdos had to wait around on Fury to set a clock, plus you could kill it. Meaning you could get lucky topdecking. Orzhov has Kaldra. With grief scam to ransack your hand of any answers, good luck... What I don't understand is cheap card advantage is autoban every time. But card disadvantage is **** free.

[@serahuffman718]

Spoilers! . . . . . . . . . . . . The two turns where mans draws removal back to back when he's at 7 and doesn't unholy heat pass is probably the worst decision imo because it's just giving his opponent more resources to have outs to his removal the second unholy heat should have just been draw cast and pass his opponent was tapped out being safe was the best play there because getting greedy cost him the game
