Nothing better than hearing Reid say "Fascinating" after seeing some weird tech from his opponent.

timestamp?

[@johnf8147]

Ending is hilarious: "Did you make HOF?" "I dunno." - Closes chat

[@SeasOfCheese929]

It's amazing how much Reid knows about this deck. He has such a strong Junderstanding.

[@jtyree0226]

Keith Shusterman that was pretty bad but take my like anyways lol

[@timw9745]

Bad in the best of ways

[@ChannelFireball]

He’s one in a Jundred.

[@G.Aaron.Fisher]

It's like coach always said, winning games is all about exercising good Jundamentals.

[@diamonddose7292]

there should be a "Jund" scent by Reid Duke exotic candle.warm forest scents, with potent wafts of that new crackin pack card smell. its a niche market and i want my commision reid

[@utterlyj1277]

Warm forest scents with just a slight hint of death.

[@CraftyChicken91]

You're a genius

[@scottvandyk5826]

Exchange the phrase “niche market” with “mass market” and you’re onto something

2:00 a.m. ChannelFireball: here is a 3,5h video with Reid playing Jund. Me: Who needs sleep anyway?!

[@117Chief930]

Just play it on 1.25x speed, Reid sounds fine and you get an extra half hour of sleep!

[@BJ4MM1N]

"I'll get to bed early tonight." *The Duke of Midrange plays Jund for 3 and a half hours* "There goes that plan."

[@wasp89898989]

I see 3 hours of Jund. I watch 3 hours of Jund.

[@chrisnicholson7559]

Me when a confidant flip kills me: Gets super salty, breaks the table, pretends to burn my confidant Reid when confidant kills him: “Oh well, that happens haha ‘greatness at any cost’.”

[@venacava6054]

As usual amazing content by reid. The prerecorded videos are also so much better than just the clips from the stream.

"Plus Liliana, maybe I can discard the Wrenn" - Top Ten Anime Betrayals.

[@TheSamzidat]

*Jund video uploaded 15 seconds ago* Immediately liked and favorited.

[@Jesse110]

It doesn't matter what Magic the Gathering video I was originally watching. If I fall asleep, I always wake up to Reid Duke playing Jund in Modern!

[@jacobconley3721]

Very nice video as usual. I’m happy you brought back pre recorded video. Strategic insight on plays is very entertaining to me

[@BlytzSaber]

Over 3 hours of Reid playing Jund?! Reid really knows how to make my night!!

[@pawkkie]

Just want to add to the pile of comments saying how much I adore these Reid Duke Jund videos. I got so excited when this got uploaded I made myself some apple cider so I can just sit here and watch for the next 3.5 hours. Just awesome :D

[@rayvnekieron8587]

I made chai instead of apple cider but this was basically me. :D

[@edorn117]

Congratulations on the hall of fame you earned it, and as always thanks for some sweet jund gameplay

[@seanburke3239]

I'm a simple Duke. I see a Jund like, I click Reid

[@Thunderbeerd]

Work is gonna be awesome tomorrow! THANKS REID!

[@christianroberts1121]

THANK THE LORD HE PRONOUNCES "NIHIL" CORRECTLY!! I was so tired of hearing it nuh-hill... a true man of culture.

[@darthwes3]

Jund, where every win feels like a loss until the last second.

[@s.l5787]

"If i have to lose to something, it might as well be Jund"

[@bobsas7544]

A prayer answered.... God bless you Mr. Duke, God bless you!

[@evanmac1761]

Really a treat to see all these games. I learn a lot every time I watch you play. One thing I've found about the Red Prowess match-up is that Plague Engineer is pretty effective as a blocker and also can combo with Wrenn and Six to kill creatures. Not sure if my sideboarding is correct but that's how I've been running it.

[@Pixelatedude6]

Reid absolute madman refusing to acknowledge his hall of fame in on camera, closing the chat and dutifully getting wrecked by Tron

[@zerppiss]

Always a good day when theres a new video with Duke Jund

[@exemplarx1249]

Reid is actually so resilient. Any number of these situations he encountered during the games would have tilted the crap out of me.

[@IntegralKing]

brick brick brick brick brick ... certainly variance was against me this match. Dude has so much restraint. After the 5th land in a row against GDS I would have thrown something

[@anonofyesterday4650]

I never understood what makes people tilt because of variance in magic. Yeah it sucks when it happens as it limits your influence on the outcome of the game but since you can't do anything productive about it better to not waste time thinking about it.

[@Setixir]

@@anonofyesterday4650 The whole don't care if you can't control is great in practice and I subscribe to it as much as I can... That said sometimes you just get annoyed.

[@anonofyesterday4650]

@@traycarrot I guess I wasn't precise enough. Yes, I understand why people can tilt when loosing a game to randomness. What I don't get is why they still do so even after playing the game for months or years. Obviously some people will react more strongly to bad luck while others will be less influenced by it but everyone can try and work on handling these situations better. I'm not "some third eye zen monk" so from time to time I get annoyed by things like loosing to opponent who made several obvious mistakes but getting annoyed is the end of it. I play mtg to get better (and possibly win some monetary prizes) but even when recently shuffling luck robbed me out of "guaranteed" top 8 in pauper challenge my first thought was "oh well, maybe next time".

[@dervakommtvonhinten517]

[@3obby]

NOOOO! The DOUBLE BLOODBRAID! BOB

[@felizginato12]

Love Reid's commentary and knowledge of the deck. I'm not even a Jund player, but I still learn so much from watching his gameplay.

[@choccymilk7913]

Great game play, just wondering if assassin's trophy wouldve been nice to have against some of the games that were lost.

[@kennyknight6951]

Saw Reid played Brawl on Game Knights. It's good to see him having fun in a casual format.

[@mikechurchill1071]

Pretty solid matches Reid. I follow all of your content and during the Titian shift match I think your gut instinct of just using your fulminator mage on Valukult would have been the best. Then you have alpine moon to name field of the dead and your prolly just won since he can’t make any zombies after that and your bloodbraids are free to just roam. Your Lilly then cleans up the Titian and the baloth after that. Trying to cut a ramp deck off green just seemed a little too cute and going for their namesake card was prolly the best play. You would have also still had the confidant working hard!!! Excellent content as always and thanks for the great commentary as always it was excellent.

[@wshayne]

They just would have gotten valakut off the Titan at that point, the only reason they didn't was because moon was on it.

[@KasumiFox]

Me seeing qasali in op hand: wtf is this guy doing? Qasali is unplayable and against jund unplayable² Reid: I am very surprised to see that card after sideboard Politeness at any cost lol

[@MaxForValue]

Me on the morning after I woke up: I have to do my work today. After 10 minutes on KZbin: Alright, I´ll do nothing today. I am going to watch this veeedio. After nearly 4 hours: What a great day I had!

[@FlourescentPotato]

The bant stoneforge deck's manabase just makes no sense, it's so frustrating to watch. You can't play gavony township in your teferi, cryptic command, snowlands matter deck!

[@117Chief930]

But what about 2/2 coatls?!? They are like, twice as good as regular ones.

[@FlourescentPotato]

@@117Chief930 lmao

[@kierant3879]

Great content. I would watch Reid do as many of these as I could. Wasn't super relevant here, but I'd be down for some spoiler time at the end. Keep 'em coming and I'll keep watching!

[@DoubleZDogg]

1:01:28 Maybe my opponent plays a Snow Covered Mountain... what a crazy niche prediction come true.

[@benlittle5543]

How many jund in a row now? Thank you thank you thank you.

[@lewieyt]

Just here to say ive seen the video in my feed, will be back later to watch

[@117Chief930]

Thank you for keeping us updated.

[@realEvanRichards]

CF should get Irra0770 to record videos for them, commentary is top-notch.

[@diamonddudeygo]

Reid Duke makes some judgment calls

[@calumfoster-bayliss7122]

u mean jundment calls.

[@LowellLGraves]

This is what I'm always waiting for!

[@ScrapperTBP]

I feel like the last few Jund videos of Reid's I've watched he has had some substantial mana issues. I realise that Wren and Six probably means you can play fewer lands but maybe there is room to put an extra in.

[@D3ath3657]

He's already playing 24, where people often play 23. I don’t know why he’s so incredibly unlucky.

[@maximiliangerlich]

I experienced that as well though. I have played a couple of leagues with w&6 jund and got extremely frustrated with constant mana issues, which I did not have in pre-w&6 lists. I really dont know what is is though, as it should have enough lands

[@baloonman5]

@@maximiliangerlich it's probably fewer Bob. Since you're not drawing as many cards per game on average, you hit fewer land drops on average. I wouldn't know how to fix that problem since w&6 is probably better than Bob, but I think that's where the problem is.

[@FlourescentPotato]

He's already pretty heavy on lands, this isn't a streamlined aggro GB deck.

[@jhl1657]

Wow, the final two matches were too harsh for a Jund midrange.

[@RyuPlaneswalker]

Ried duke playing Jund, and LSV playing outcome get uploaded on the same day.

[@martinoterolema5965]

Small thing, but against valakut, reclamation sage is also a shaman, so naming that with plague engineer might be relevant

[@dervakommtvonhinten517]

1:29:30 does anyone know why he didnt attack with everything except for one zombie? reid would have had to block at least one elemental and one zombie. that would mean he would either not be able to block an elemental dead or would lose a goyf AND the elf. and that would give the opponent one card under bomat courier without the risk of dying next turn

[@diabeticmonkey]

It’s so nice seeing old Jund without Rags

[@jeffieog]

So this was the jund match Reid Duke was working on while HoF announcements were going on! :D Grats!

[@anthonyrose8921]

Time for my weekly jund video !!!!

[@daltonmekis]

3:14:47 mycosynth lattice was banned in modern but I still think you had to do that. Them getting liquimetal coating destroys a land on each of your turns and they have big Karn to exile your lands. It’s obviously an impossible situation either way but lattice isn’t something you have to worry about

[@SlaphappyMongoose]

WAIT! Reid Duke plays jund? When did this happen!!

[@Ethryas]

At 3:06:00 , how about blocking the Titan with Plague Engineer and a Tarmogoyf? Prevents way more damage if they don't crack a relic, and still leaves you with one Goyf and all your other creatures assuming they do.

[@michaelgoetze8531]

Yes!!! More of this type of content please!!!

[@ZiuGigi]

Thanks for the great video, as always :) Can u suggest me how to run jund in a tron-oriented meta?

[@TheGeopigMan]

Any thought to having Confidant in the sb and Engineer in the main? They both have match-ups where they're good and match-ups where they're serviceable. However Engineer having deathtouch in the situations where it's just a chump blocker, is relevant.

[@acid391]

If you're reading this message, why is it fullminator still an option with the presence of wrenn and six, reid??

[@BarginsGalore]

This was the video he was recording while it was announced he was in the hof

[@Nalianna]

@1:15:55 why not maelstrom pulse the Servo Schematic thing? - it's not always about doing the right thing, it's about sending a message

[@SilentMannam]

How did he do overall?

[@glorifiedpotato4412]

Wooooooooh yeeeeas ! That’s what I said when this video popped in my feed

[@CommonConnoisseurs]

Midrange is mesmerizing

[@SetItOnFire8]

I think the play ill do in that position 20:00, when cascade into Wrenn, is to attack and ping Liliana.

[@TheInvisibleKev]

Could you bring back the Huntmaster next time? such a great card :D

[@herbert164]

any reason why no trophy?

[@jtyree0226]

8 rounds of Daddy Duke oh my

More "non stream" videos like this, please. The streaming videos are so unfocused and chaotic.

[@myztik5716]

Hmm interesting decision to kill the Wrenn and Six instead of Liliana when your best topdecks are a creature

[@avijoshi3487]

3:45 most emotive Reid Duke has ever been in one of these videos

[@DarkUnicorn89024]

No facecam:(

[@goldcobraarima9819]

Why do ppl play snowcovered lands?

[@Gakoranus]

G2: maybe killing lilliana with wrens -1 and bloodbraid was a more winning line? They probably had backup lilliana in hand too though... hard game.

[@trumantowle1447]

Should name Shaman with plague engineer against titanshift in case the opp is running rec sage

[@TheBobbyLarsson]

Thanx reid, now this is quality time :)

[@toast_recon]

how did you win against that prowess deck literally how

[@Terbmagic4]

His block with scavenging ooze on swiftspear was game winning

Reid i know it mught not be your favorite or go to choice for modern but i would love to see you run through a league with blue white in whatever variety you think is strongest weather it be miracles or stoneblade. I just would really love to see your take on it

[@jacobpowell9066]
