Crimson Bride Reanimator - Standard - Mythic Ranked - MTG Arena

[@richardholland1266]

Perfect music timing on the intro... Gonna be a good show.

[@oliverwetter9186]

This time this is extraordinary good. So satisfying to both watch and listen

[@Carraidas]

This is how you see that LVD is talented and serious, both in Magic and in editing videos. He took the time to find the perfect music, and put it on the right spot. That's a detail, but that means a lot.

[@andreasallemann4812]

Any Updates or changes on the Deck you made with further playing?

[@ryanpoulos8232]

This was a real exciting deck to see in action. I love playing reanimate decks a lot so this is definitely my style.

[@RandoMattz]

i'm so used to fetch lessons that i forgot Learn can also discard/draw..sweet interation with the rest of this deck, keep it up!

[@SacredMagic13679]

The perfectly timed attacks to Habanera. *chef's kiss*

[@jeremypiles1787]

Came here to comment this. Thank you

[@mentefiamma1744]

the music being in sync with the attacks makes perfect sense in my fantasy

[@glasses1744]

i love the extra care to make the intro line up perfectly

[@robertngo1629]

Welp, now I know what I'm gonna do with the two copies of Olivia and two copies of Hullbreaker Horror from my drafts lol amazing content as always LVD!

[@ElektechN9ne]

When Olivia was spoiled a Grixis or Jund Reanimation deck were the first things which came to my mind. I'm glad that the deck performed so well. Really well done. Now I want to try it out too!

[@russellpizel3750]

This is one of the most fun, but tricky to pilot, decks I have played. That slug is a game changer.

[@miggydee]

dang the tempo with the way you attacked went in sync v cool

[@Cinetyk]

Very cool deck. Thanks for your continuing work. One gets tired of always the same "meta" decks, it's so cool and refreshing to see decks that are very interesting and still very competitive. Especially when a new set comes out. Again, thanks for all your work! EDIT: also great job on the play-by-play analysis and thought processes - excellent way to learn how to become a better Magic player - greatly appreciated :)

[@When-Stars-Combine]

The official MTG designer said that Anje is pronounced as "AYN-jee" (whatever the heck that means), I myself prefer "AHN-ya" but referring to her as "The Maid" means you can't get flak from anyone. Wise move!

[@darkrayaccel]

shes pretty decent in niv reborn in historic as well. But I alrdy knew that if any color combination wanted her right now it would be grixis. (in standard)

[@TasmanianThunder]

LVD in a new meta is peak MTG KZbin! Truly loved this deck and how you showcased Olivia’s insane potential. Your synergies are always so smooth. I can’t wait to see what you conjure up next! Keep inspiring us deckbuilders! Keep up the great content! 😃

[@_claymore]

what is this!? a functional Grixis deck in standard!? oh boi, how long it's been.. if only I had the wildcards to craft it

[@AkodoNoEyes]

That’s my problem. Hahah I wasted so many wildcards building decks and now I found one I like and gotta grind out wildcards again.

[@icebergslim1872]

Same.

[@snugglyhugs8698]

The music at the start was magnificent. I'd love to watch MTGA to more of the classics.

[@tamashiieater1889]

This deck looks like so much fun. I really love reanimator decks

[@AkodoNoEyes]

I love Grixis reanimator. This is a beautiful deck my friend.

[@mbates2010]

I'm so happy that you did a video on this deck because I was playing with the idea but couldn't make it work

[@kamimoros]

Since you are not thinking of casting it, what about Koma? If it sticks, it would create tokens that stay even if Olivia is answered and it has a lot of utility.

[@LegenVD]

We actually do end up hard casting our bombs a decent amount of the time, especially vs other control decks. Koma is great when reanimated but doesn’t offer the same flexibility.

[@icebergslim1872]

I've watched this like 5 times now (and built it) pretty happy with it :) thanks LegenVD!!!

[@LegenVD]

Glad you like it!

[@icebergslim1872]

@@LegenVD what about a jund reanimator? We got mulch in this set

[@LegenVD]

@@icebergslim1872 It's an option for sure.

[@Mamutkailiai]

The intro was flawless. Classical music and mtg are like wine and cheese.

[@mattd9205]

I really like this I miss the days of Grixis Re-animator with Drakuseth and other bombs...tyvm LVD!

[@MoonWatcher.]

Olivia does bring life to the party

[@RandomPerson-mv8bn]

If you can make it work, another fun combo is the mythic witherbloom dragon plus the 6/6 demon that copies itself. Granted, sweepers do it pretty dirty.

[@unai49999]

[@kayman37]

omg that intro is the best!

[@MortlachNL]

Fun combo. That slug is so strong!

[@Michael.032]

That intro was amazing

[@ladyangelouve59]

The Habanera really fits all the smashing ending, doesn't it? I would have like to see the slugs in action, though. And still, another great deck (and a great vid) Ta!

[@nolan4339]

My Thought was to pair Olivia with Moraug, to allow for an additional combat if you can get another land on the board after combat.

[@Michael.032]

Thoughts on running Velomachus Lorehold in this deck? I know a while back (in Eldraine-Strixhaven standard), there was this guy on top ladder that CGB would run into every once in a while who was playing a Grixis Reanimator list, where the main goal was to reanimate Velomachus and hit another reanimation spell with the on attack trigger. It wasn't even that difficult to hard cast the Velomachus, as you could get treasures from Prismari Command and Seize the Spoils

[@schaakjan1]

burning rune demon would also fit well in this deck, you can grab olivia and the reanimator spell with it or even your missing other big creatures.

[@Liqweed1337]

your combos are art

[@yonahgreene]

Finally using the learn mechanic for tossing stuff into the bin for value

[@OfficialMaddeck]

Awesome deck.

[@Dreykopff]

When I lost that limited final-boss game to someone slamming Olivia with the 6/6 menace in the yard when I thought I had them dead next turn, I'm pretty sure this intro's music was playing as well. You hate to see it. Well, what can I say, a million points of haste are so spicy, there's just no way to not enjoy it...however the woman even hastes in that dress of hers.

[@garageink74]

Nice as always.

[@mladjo2505]

Missed the opportunity to name the deck Corpse Bride :D

[@Dexterity_Jones]

Legendary intro

[@intifary]

[@A_Father_]

Figures. Kept trying to make this work in jund as a mulch deck. Just was missing.

[@Keltair13]

Opponent: Plays mono white or extra turns. Toxrill: Allow me to introduce myself.

[@barney3444]

Brilliant intro

[@barney3444]

Yay a heart

[@pouletmcrooster5206]

As an avid reanimator player, this was a joy to watch. Do you think Olivia has any chance of seeing historic play?

[@bacik847]

I would love to see her in historic vampires, imagine putting her into play via Sorin on turn 3, could be some explosive plays

[@discopotato4089]

YES IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS

[@sundowneyes]

gotta love LVD

[@JL-tv3lw]

The opening classical music is always my favorite part. Have you considered playing music through the whole video?

[@LegenVD]

Would save me the commentary part 😅

[@User-jo7jp]

@@LegenVD i believe we just stumbled upon a solution the next time your voice decides to stop working at full capacity!

[@valek4201]

As someone who is new to mtg, I would miss the commentary

[@afikolami]

One of my opponent during prerelease was able to slammed both demon and slug during a game. Slug counters kill my 1/1 token, create a slug token, demon sac the slug token, create a demon copy token. It's too hilarious I couldn't even get salty.

[@netsdj]

Hoooooly molly! This is bunkers!

[@neverfail9432]

Kardur's Vicious Return would be really nice here. I don't even think this deck needs to be blue.

[@xsuperbmentality]

Sweet deck

[@DanyF02]

11:00 "Okay we're on the draw, our hand is a bit on the slow side." 16:35 *Swings for lethal with 17 worth of mana in legendary creatures while opponent is still on 3 lands in what looked like a ramp deck.*

[@LegenVD]

Look...

[@davideleidi9361]

Consider seems powerful here

[@LegenVD]

It’s great with Hullbreaker, although we’re often playing a tapped land on turn one so it can be difficult to fit into our curve early.

[@ChairmanMeow1]

Should have included Wishcoin Crab as a four drop bomb...what a missed opportunity!

[@icebergslim1872]

Me and my buddy built a reanimator deck only using green instead of blue for mulch and bramble wurms, etc

[@BloodspitsMusic]

This is brutal and my kind of deck, for best of 3, what do you recommend for a sideboard?

[@ElektechN9ne]

I was also thinking about this. Probably would keep 'Sciences', 'Exihabtion' and 'Teachings' as lessond, and would add 'Test of talents' and 'Cinderclasm' came to my mind, but not sure about the other picks. Would be happy for recommandations.

[@BloodspitsMusic]

@@ElektechN9ne reason i ask, this would be FUN at FNM!

I love that Anje can sac a creature then Olivia can reanimate it.

[@Thickolas]

After chewing over whether or not to spend the wildcards, I just crafted this deck, won my first game, and got a mythic card from levelling my mastery. That mythic? Toxrill.

[@tomasfjeldberg1443]

This intro is so Clas !

[@patrickevanroach7498]

Thank you for slug

[@VelocitrapLords]

Did anyone else find out that “Learn” also had a loot function from this video or am I just really bad at Standard?

Chill, I also realized a bit late.

[@afikolami]

You can also choose to decline both functions but I've never seen that happening yet.

[@VelocitrapLords]

@@afikolami I’ve just never seen someone not choose its tutor ability. Also did not play much MTG when Strixhaven was the new set

[@icebergslim1872]

If you bring back angel with Olivia and Olivia dies does anje stay?

[@josiahhook1535]

You should do one similar to this again sometime soon

[@father_fester]

This is a really good deck. Actually it's even a great deck. But I'm sadly sure that when I will craft it, all my opponents will be UB / UW control. Shuffler is so fine 😓

[@jonaderjona5805]

I am just now realizing how hard Toxril actually would counter Epiphany. Such a shame it's so damn expensive.

[@joelfee]

Treasure ramp gets you there but Epiphany decks can just bounce the Slug

[@nigelng325]

Quick question does toxril and sludge monster slime counters combo together and if so would it be possible for you to make a deck showcasing that?

[@LegenVD]

They do and will probably build a deck around them once I get more Toxrills.

[@User-jo7jp]

dimir slime time! cant wait.

[@NoFutureForG0uda]

32:00 cant you attack with olivia, reanimate, deal 10 and deal the last 4 by activating Anje twice?

[@LegenVD]

Looks like it!

[@plaxy100]

still waiting to see what someone comes up with for Toxrill and sludge monster combo.

[@LegenVD]

I need to open a few more Toxrills and I'll get right on it.

[@thomaschereau1087]

We dont see any izzet deck, i think its a very Bad matchup but against mono white, mono green et mono black its pretty decent

[@andreasallemann4812]

Any changes to the Deck after playing alot?

[@Eonilar]

idk why I have such shit luck with these amazing decks LVD and other content creators make, but I played 15 matches with this and won 3 whole games due to just not drawing what was needed to win against the decks I was playing again. And all 3 of them were instant concedes..

[@LegenVD]

Maybe you need to mulligan more.

[@bryantan4228]
