[@caleb7882]

You guys are legitimately some of the best magic content on KZbin- the music, the overlays, the setup, the cool pioneer decks, it’s amazing, and an absolute atrocity you only have 30K!

[@bastienclarke1810]

Agreed!

[@FPRobber]

And don't forget the gameplay. I love how they always get such good players! I guess currently the closest paper gameplayer on KZbin is Shuffle Up and Play from TCC and while that's also really fun to watch and I would highly recommend, the difference in gameplay quality is staggering. Edit: Forgot about all the commander gameplay channels which are often very good too, but competitive 1v1 is just that much more interesting to watch imo

[@EmbeJuicemazzopazzo]

100k later, i think the content paid off

[@metrafem4734]

The discussions after each play are really good. So interesting to know what's going thru each player's head.

[@thesleepinggloom2603]

Easily the most underrated MTG channel out there. Great feature matches, a fun variety of formats and the production is fantastic.

[@curtisjamesbw]

This is definitely one of the best YT for Magic content, it's refreshing not seeing a single Commander game, the verity is amazing!

[@JordanGrayson00]

Absolutely incredible video! The commentary after each play and the sideboard discussion is really great. The editing and overlay is very much appreciated and well done. Hope to see more pioneer content soon! This was a great match.

[@CardmarketMagic]

Thanks a ton!

[@KlittoD]

Best guests and production! I hope the magic players find this content so you can keep it up!

[@carl74z]

great content, as per usual; love to get some insight from the pros! An explaination of the sideboards chosen, even brief, would be a great schooling moment and might attract more views!

[@CardmarketMagic]

Noted!

[@aedanohara6080]

Would love to see a pioneer vs modern feature match with izzet phoenix and izzet murktide, something like “is modern really stronger than pioneer?” I think it’s be interesting considering pioneer has access to cards like dog through time and treasure cruise, that modern does not have access to.

[@Syr_Robert]

I have my own version of Prowess but instead of Shredder I have Stormwing Entity. I feel like Shredder is a must, but having it that expensive really hurts. Also I prefer Of One Mind over Reckless Impulse. It is almost everytime a one mana-draw two and you don't reveal the cards nor have to play them within the next turn. Great to see Prowess functioning that well, makes me happy to see my deck-ish obliterating the annoying spirits.

[@killa4funtrololol]

Great to see the paper pioneer content, great production! Maybe play some day the upgraded lotus combo deck?

[@jonathanoutze859]

LOVE PIONEER! LOVE U GUYS! I WANT MORE (i was told commenting on the things i liked helps)

[@CardmarketMagic]

It does!

[@user-yf5ns5sl2z]

I'm loving this style of deck vs deck video. The production quality is great and the asides and fantastic

[@CardmarketMagic]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@aedanohara6080]

Would love to see a “Is modern really stronger than pioneer?” Feature match with izzet murktide and izzet Phoenix, obviously modern has access to a lot more powerful cards, but pioneer gets cards like dog through time and treasure cruise which I think would make the match interesting

[@TheMCGamer2012]

I mean, Liliana of the Veil is stronger than both of those imo, and Pioneer just got her as a taste of Modern power level

[@oafkad]

Lots of people want to meet movie stars. I would rather lose to these fellas in magic.

[@megacoolwoah3987]

omg that dice roll is enough to like the video by itself

[@iag037]

Mengu forgeting the sprite dragon trigger, just show that pro players are humans too

[@iag037]

also not casting rending volley in response of rattlechains hexproof trigger

[@Alvin-wx2ep]

Is soul scar mage legal i mtg arena I been brewing a blue red prowess deck but never thought about soul scar mage

[@jonasfrijters9803]

I love this match I think you guess should do more modern with no band list

[@jellysandjamz250]

How do you feel about “fading hope” in the spirits deck?

[@returningwhisper]

Really like Mengu's list. Great games, love seeing y'all on some Pioneer.

[@CardmarketMagic]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@kauwgomboom]

At 9:27, could Arne not have flashed in the second supreme phantom to put the targeted phantom’s toughness to 4? Seems like a more efficient play than saccing the wanderer?

[@123fakestreeeet]

Next time you guys do modern I'd love to see something using the interaction between Sagas and power conduit. Being able to set your urza's saga back to 2 after the 3rd activation, keeping the saga and finding an artifact every turn. Asmo cookbook shells seem like a great place for this interaction with other good sagas like fable of the mirror breaker.

[@lucaswaerme1629]

Yay cardmarket VEEDEO!

[@CardmarketMagic]

🎉

[@ananmaysahu4563]

was lithomantic barrage not printed yet? or is the "can't be countered" more valuable than the 1 extra damage? because I would personally have lithomantic barrage in my sideboard, not rending volley.

[@raddker1941]

Just won a Pioneer tournament with u/w control. More Pioneer please ❤️

[@roelrodrigueziii5829]

How did you counter the rending volley with mausoleum wonder? I thought it couldn’t be countered

[@myoportal]

Did Andre prefer Reckless Impulse over Of One Mind? I personally love Of One Mind

[@josephclites6971]

Love these matchups. Keep bringing the good stuff!!

[@CardmarketMagic]

Thanks! Will do!

[@gypsieking3280]

Love this series. Thanks

[@julienbled5055]

Amazing content. Keep doing more of these ! Next time you should bring Reid Duke and Gab Nassif to play some old-school modern match !!

[@tux2201]

I just want to say that this channel is fantastic 👌

[@CardmarketMagic]

Thank you so much 😀

[@lorenzklug3354]

as always great content. Quick question though, the small karmacrow mention felt out of place due to what both were talking about in the context of the match that was played beforehand.

[@sebastianosewolf2367]

how he could used the ability of mausoleum wanderer, when strangle is still on the stack, to counter strangle ?

[@cjcassar2196]

I have a question I've been pondering, why take out mystical dispute, only to replace it with lofty denial??

[@CardmarketMagic]

I am bot Arne but I assume it's because it also counters the red spells in Andrea's deck

[@phobos5448]

When the den of the bugbear attacks, it creates a 1/1 goblin attacking as well, right?

[@andreyk9660]

That is correct, but Arne was tapping Bugbear with his two spirits before attack, so attack didn't happen for bear.

[@buddyWalrus]

Those were some gg's. Nice clean considered play.

[@CardmarketMagic]

Glad you enjoyed

[@jonaskong5737]

Love the Pioneer content

[@Jongbelegen48plus]

love this content, i woulld really love to see andrea playing his pet deck vivieeeeeen combo. woulld be so nice :)

[@CardmarketMagic]

Maybe one day!

[@supremecourt4131]

What a great Video! Quick question: Which Deck is better in Pioneer? Mono U Sprits or Bant Spirits? I want to return to Paper

[@feliciajohnson6350]

Super cool :)) 🔥🔥🔥

[@chlebo21]

How is Mengu playing with monastery swiftspear in pioneer? It's not legal in that format

[@ianhancock9045]

The mono red pioneer precon comes with a playset of swiftspears - it very much is legal. Perhaps you're thinking of explorer?

[@AndreaMengucci]

As a Pro Player Wizards lets me add a card of choice to every format, I chose Monastery Swiftspear for this one.

[@chlebo21]

My bad checked on gatherer and doesnt show that's why i got concerned. Checked and gatherer doesnt show pioneer legality at all

[@ulyssessanchez2328]

Swear you guys need to make clips out of the die rolls I always say that's the most exciting part, lol like today my pod had 3 separate nat20's 😅

[@klarkammerman7096]

Loved the video! Thanks!

[@MoeBDig]

Andreas Deck is basically pheonixless phoenix.

[@dubscheckem4074]

How would a buyer go about getting shipping to the USA?

[@CardmarketMagic]

Cardmarket unfortunately does not ship to the US. Maybe one day, down the line, but not any time soon

[@rikytie7011]

That's why i'm running only 2 faceless Heaven in my mono u deck. Fun to Watch ma mengu rimane il più forte :)

Lets go pioneeeer!

[@michaelbohm5160]

Sadly, the cutting error with Ledger Shredder spoilered the winner of round 3. :-(

[@everybodyhasabelly]

What cutting error? Do you have a time stamp? Even after watching all of game 3 again I cannot see it

[@michaelbohm5160]

@@everybodyhasabelly after game 2, there's a "omg, that ledger shredder was op, better buy it on cardmarket" kind of semi-ad. But in game 2, ledger shredder didn't even hit the board (or at least wasn't relevant, in stark contrast to game 3). So I'm quite sure it wasn't supposed to be that way? Dunno, maybe I'm stupid and missing sth.

[@everybodyhasabelly]

@@michaelbohm5160 oh! Yeah. It's not an editing mistake as much as it is Arne just hating ledger shredder. He was speaking about the match-up in general and just needed something to call out in the Karma Crow shout-out. You really scared me for a second 😵 I thought something was wrong with the editing

[@michaelbohm5160]

@@everybodyhasabelly Haha, I see. So I just read too much into it, I guess... I'm sorry for scaring you then! It's cool to see you're reading the comments though. Please keep releasing this kind of videos, greatly enjoying them! ^_^

Great video, great insight on how to play, but please talk a bit louder. It’s a bit hard to hear them at times. Other than that, good video!
