DIMIR DOMINATION | Blue/Black EVIL Control | Mythic Top 300

[@TheCarlosLuna]

55:38 "Hold on guys, I have to go scare a chipmunk". I never ever thought I would hear CGB say that, and in such a normal tone.

[@5kat3rz]

NIRAWR! 🤣

[@mirabellatrix]

best moment of that video

[@Patronux]

This goes straight to the "CGB Best moments compilation"

[@redarndiculous]

Legit thought it was background music lol

[@matthewmacleod4804]

Best CGB entertainment to date.

[@dgthunderer]

45:48 Commence the Endgame can beat Garruk's Harbinger because it only has hexproof from black, not protection from black.

[@muffZor89]

Is that really how it works? i thought all cards with black in them, even multicolored was uneffective vs Harbinger.

[@dgthunderer]

@@muffZor89 You just cannot target it with a black spell, but you can block it with a black creature

[@ericklinhares9551]

@@muffZor89 Hexproof from black means you can't target it with a black spell or ability but it still can be dealt damage by a black creature. Protection would protect it from damage.

[@guiwoda]

I was about to comment on this as well

[@ExplosiveFetus]

@@muffZor89 That's protection. Harbinger has hexproof.

[@sebastiang.5032]

Dimir, my one true eternal MtG love. I can't like this video enough.

[@sebsamblast]

I like

[@adriansitumeang585]

Youre not the only one

[@cibor07]

hey CGB, thanks so much for that dimir love, it was the color combination that draw me into mtg in the first place.

[@covertgoblue]

Glad to hear it!

[@JasonCleeveJAFC]

Looks really cool mate and I think adding slitherwisp and some of the cards with flash could work with this deck as well. Very awesome video 😎🤘👍

[@jarenherald1439]

Listen to the podcast every week. Definitely recommend 👍🏼

[@covertgoblue]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@Taint-Bruiser]

If I run more than 24 lands. I never draw lands. If I run 24, I draw the correct amount. The smoothing algorithm is so messed up.

[@lifeisawesome1391]

Dimir control is the best. I just started using a dimir mill combo with Teferi's Tutelage + Peer into the Abyss. They never see it coming.

[@jesusgeek7680]

I have to say jeskai is a little more making your opponent literally want to quit post ban m21. But yeah i agree dimir can be absolutely filthy bro lol i have both post ban m21 and straight american fliers.

[@christophp6947]

I also tried Dimir Control after the Teferi ban and one card that felt quite strong was Mazemind Tome. It helps you a lot to find your needed landdrops, can help you to set up cards for Kefnet and also make use of mana you might have left open for a counterspell. The 4 life also are more clutch than you might think.

[@TheMike90a]

CGB - you’re awesome. Playing draw-go UB control in top 200 mythic, amazing. I love seeing you mercilessly grind out Mono-R decks. RIP Tef3ri, all hail the counterspell. I think this deck could use some Borrowers though on a serious note 🤔

[@itsmr.rainbow3861]

DIMIR GANG RISE UP

[@fredkandratovich398]

DIMIR CONTROL REPRESENT!

[@itsmr.rainbow3861]

@Jonathan Gaither yep I'm a fan

[@fernandodiaz9064]

DIMIR FOREVER!!!

[@simonchi5372]

Kefnet truly is the saviour against all those ramp Ugin decks, especially G/U. Together with the blue castle he just comes back right again which is so sweet as you eventually overrun them in value.

[@adkohler]

Wow, Cling to Dust doing work against rakdos sac

[@partyboi9597]

Love this man

[@itscetriolojhoo4920]

Countering banshing light, nothing more satisfying personally

[@geotechms]

You have played A. LOT. Of MTG! 👍 I learn so much every time I watch one of your videos.

[@covertgoblue]

Glad you like them!

[@spyritwind2540]

Yep ... tough arch type to play. Like you said too many narrow cards, not enough card advantage and not enough power. I run this with the 5 mana Ashiok sometimes, but it still struggles. Maybe Fae of Wishes is required.

[@EmeraldSerpentSmart]

I was hoping for evil CGB. Still a great video

[@drewf8619]

This deck wants Tef4 to discard dead cards in various matchups... Other good options (as 1/2 ofs) are Petty Theft, Sublime Epiphany, and Whirlwind Denial. Edit: Also; Fae of Wishes and Lochmere can be good/fun.

[@WitnessedOne]

Lost to mono red today after I ultimated Nissa with a single land on the battlefield as they topdecked anax, torbran, embercleave to my 3 straight lands after nissa ultimate. Truly stunning

[@killereagle666]

Personally, I've been loving lochmere serpent with a way to discard it (fea of wishes or rain of revelation) :P I ate so many Uro and ecq fuel in the past couple of months it's not even funny.

[@NamathCB]

Oh I liked the idea of "secret link" will check that out

[@bbeennjjii]

Hey CGB, just wanted to say you're the greatest KZbinr. To my disgrace I must admit that I didn't watch you for a few weeks, so: SORRYYYYY! Hope you keep up with the good content, really enjoy it

[@covertgoblue]

Welcome back and thank you!

[@kingfuzzy2]

Thank you for helping me get to mythic built a Johnny version of your jeskai control deck. (You saw this message on your stream but didn't respond) . Really enjoy some local friendly evil librarians when they show up ty for vid ( :

[@covertgoblue]

Congrats on getting to mythic! That's awesome.

[@kingfuzzy2]

Thanks :blush

[@eintyp4389]

Best of one ist to agressiv for Dimir. I wished i could have seen it against a controll deck where your removal is pointles.

[@CallMeSmigl]

"We can't run more lands" - Something I never expected to hear from Covert-"38-lands-in-aggro-decks"-GoBlue.

[@LegendaryO34]

17:28 I feel like using Eliminate was a bad choice here. Eliminate hits every creature in the Rak Sac lists. Heartless act struggles with escaped Woe-striders, Dreadhorde Butchers, and Call of the Death-dweller keyworded creatures.

[@Mr.HistoryPodcast]

55:38 That's what Cry of the Carnarium sounds like: -2/-2 for the chipmunk.

[@СергейКиселев-ю6щ]

32:42 baby shark DODODODODOD baby

[@knodalishell5636]

SECOND AND I LOVE DIMIR

[@kingfuzzy2]

The same ( :

[@oreosnarfer]

Is new Tef worth it to discard the narrow cards or too slow?

[@TheSkarTV]

PogChamp reveal at the end of the game with the island.

[@joey4track]

Would love to see you do some Historic on this channel tbh

[@theherosdownfall7428]

Best part was you yelling at a Chipmunk ✌🏻

[@Danthemandra]

@ 53:53 why does CGB mill himself? CovertGoBlue, why?

[@mandielyn0416]

Honest question, why no fae?

[@dafewger]

Love how CGB reverse psychology's the game with "I know I'll never get lands 3 or 4" at the beginning

[@mattd3978]

And it only happened in like one game

[@ondrejkromer5732]

Anyone noticed how CGB puts top numbers higher and higher in title?

[@knodalishell5636]

Ondrej Kromer because he’s slowly been falling in the ranks

[@a5h1y]

Who you gonna call? Death-Dweller!

[@abj136]

Try Overwhelmed Apprentice in place of Opt. Has presence to hinder aggro decks, and finds that missing land

[@BartowartO]

Where is outro? :( I like your summation for each deck. Spcecialy it's a Dimir deck :

[@And-un6sx]

ohhhh you remeber your Dimir draw Go deck in Duals 🤗

[@Blazphemyful]

I feel you, I seem to never get land against mono red. Mono red magic.....so fun...

[@jarunia17]

Beautiful first game

[@benmartinez400]

Keep up the great work cgb, I always enjoy the content you put out, it never disappoints. Keep it up👍

[@covertgoblue]

Thanks, will do!

[@mikethomas5276]

Okay I watch CGB all the time is the friggin window on his left or on his right? In the intro it's on his right but at 5:00 when he starts playing its on his left. It happens in a lot of his videos. Why CGB whyyyyy?

[@covertgoblue]

I live in a mirror realm.

[@firestarter77]

Just beat this deck into the ground using your Yorion Deck so thanks for that.

[@mastertwitch1]

CGB, I'll see your frustration at being land screwed, and raise you drawing BOTH of your TWO fabled passages in your opening hand 15 games in a row. Happened to me yesterday.

[@skulls.n.guns.22]

What's the title and who's the artist of the background song at 16:06? Anyone who's about to say "Darude - Sandstorm" should be more original.

[@jogbie7606]

good some else has pointed out the AFvessel trick it's like just run some instant speed spot removal people you will be fine.

[@mathiasbaillargeon7314]

Where is the cool kids club at?

[@purplatypus7405]

They used to call me Purple Pain in highschool

[@dennistran9877]

u should run 16 lands and it works in my mono white aggro and it gives you 5 lands by turn 7

[@k.westerling2754]

It's so sad to see all these cool cards like Kefnet rotating that were never played because of broken cards like Baby T.

[@triopsate3]

To be fair, Kefnet didn't have much of a chance even if t3feri wasn't around. Needing to stay for a turn to hopefully get more value than a 4 mana 4/5 flyer is pretty sketchy. T3feri made the problem even worse for Kefnet by disabling the extra spell but even without it Kefnet isn't in a good position.

[@readenwilson1101]

CGB I flipping had such a bad run of hitting my lands tonight. No joke, for 6 games in a row, after a 4 game win streak which was a grind, I kept 2 landers then missed lands drops and dead, i mulligan my hand to 5 before getting land flooded, I switch out lands to 27 lands and I still missed them. So infuriating because I’m trying to rank up but I just get so screwed

[@kenso5624]

Interesting, so a video was in the top 100 the day before yesterday, 200 yesterday, and today it's top 300. Hmmm I think I notice a pattern

[@leehunt6031]

So frustrating when you draw less lands than a mono red deck lol. Hate when that happens

[@Wolfsspinne]

Garuk's Harbinger only has Hexproof from black, not Protection! Had they played another Questinh beast and you entered the god eternals you could have blocked with the army token.

[@knodalishell5636]

Hold on.. gotta go scare a chipmunk

[@LordGentle]

The day will never come when I DON'T love the Mono Red song.

[@christmas6666]

THIS IS MONO RED. WE PLAY MONO RED. ATTACK FACE TILL THEY’RE DEAD. FERVENT CHAMPION. ROBBER OF THE RICH, IT HAS REACH, DON’T KNOW WHY. MONO RED. MONO RED.

[@jameshanus3813]

Wouldn’t blue+red be purple?

[@julianvermund3951]

If cards in this deck are onlu good against Aggro or against Control/Ramp, why is CGB not running more "Looting" effects to get value out of the useless cards for the particular match-up he's in? I would think Teferi four would be really useful for example!

[@5fwwfw]

Cry of the carnarium is amazing in my dimir control

[@aDeviantType]

The REAL heartless act was killing that poor grazer at the end of the game with the Simic player 😭

[@enixxe]

What is Dimir without Thought Erasure to make your opponent rage quit after you hit them with it the first three turns of the game and leave them with nothing but lands?

[@chrisw8681]

As CGB has noted, Thought Erasure is often too slow for the meta now. TE VS Rdw? Rdw will win...

[@adriansitumeang585]

WTF no outro for the cool kids club?

that chipmunk scare

[@eversioaddicttekken6003]

No wrap up for the cool kids club

[@briand13522]

This is the 2nd video I've seen where you don't understand Harbenger. It has hexproof to black, not protection to black. You could have easily amassed and then been able to block it.

[@krimhorn]

That poor chipmunk. They just wanted to sing you the song of their people. Which happens to be something from mainstream pop music.

[@therealfolkblues2526]

Why rain over atris?

[@fernandodiaz9064]

Because Rain is a spell Kefnet can dupe!

[@FindingAHandleThatIsntTaken]

I came here to yell at you because my Dimir control deck had a near perfect record until today and when I saw this video I thought people might already be teching against it, but it’s so different than mine that I have to accept I’ve just been getting lucky since the bans until now.

[@afk5112]

I want a channel called CovertGoHeeeeel that only plays control please!!!

[@fernandodiaz9064]

Only DIMIR CONTROL please!!!

[@jetdekhang2895]

Can he pls make a vid of him playing his go to deck.

[@yamizara2928]

DIMIR!!!!

[@waffleandchicken]

CGB is cancelled for scaring that poor chipmunk. What a heartless act.

[@diegotejada55]

16:08 Oh oh! I know! I know! It takes a village

[@troysuza2065]

I love watching your content. But i wish to see you play some Commander or brawl and more casual (fun) formats. Is that possible? Maybe gather some friends or other fellow content creators and do a zoom game with commander. That would be amazeballs!

[@gskyon]

He has another channel in which he posts more variety of videos. Search for "CGB Gaming"

[@geotechms]

31:45. So that’s what they are calling it these days. 👍

[@tylereaton4066]

Does anyone else have a sideboard thief of sanity in there dimir control sideboard. Because if so I know that I'm not alone. The reason is everyone mainboards creature removal sees a control deck and sides the removal out then let the nonsense commence.

[@raulpacheco7488]

42:23 lol

[@dracodominus2800]

35:03 why on earth were you in. Such a rush? You should have kept your mana open and kept hitting him with a 2/2. He was doing literally nothing to you. A big Krasis would have ended the game right then if he had one, surely?

[@dougcarey2233]

Run 20 lands. You'll definitely flood out every other game.

[@garyovich]

Can concur

[@justinbendlin7578]

Commence the end game would've made a 3/3 at least in the mono green game.

[@oladelefreeman7883]

The reason why embercleave didn't get a ban right here.

[@delludyri8231]

You call it evil, but this is only a mischievous squirrel stealing from bird feeders, compared to the truest evil. Mono Red Also T3feri before he was banned

[@TehTip]

no analysis this time?

[@PopersIRL]

Sorry didn't get past you saying i could watch jeskia feather, i just went there instead

[@pauljosepharcher]

I do like tilt.

[@fernandodiaz9064]

Dimir is my favorite guild, sad that every good Dimir card is rotating. I hate 3 mana Teferi, it did wrecked Standard for a long time.

[@vidividivicious]

We need izzet control

[@drbum-ne2fg]

Why "Stupi d sacrifice deck"?

[@tristantunstall6171]

Dude shuffler is rigged just run 24 land make sure you got the shock lands and THREE fabled passage are in your deck and bam almost never get cucked by drawing every fabled passage in your deck every game at the worst possible times and almost always hit your land drops you need. Easy peasy as for what to add instead of those 2 lands uhh card draw i guess or like a grease card ya know. What did you think you needed more

[@tristantunstall6171]

I'm gonna really miss discovery/dispersal such an awesome card

[@romiasu9109]

isn't this deck very weak?

[@jeffkosko5815]
