Griefing My Opponents In Vintage Cube | LSV | MTG

I got to make some filthy plays in this 4v4 Vintage Cube team draft - there's nothing better than living the dream (and nothing worse than when your opponent does it). Vintage Cube List: cubecobra.com/cube/list/c47c4...

I'm surprised LSV didn't actually say "Why does it feel like I'm a turn behind here?" in the game he spaced on dropping a land on turn 2.

[@LSVargas]

I must have stayed up late before this video, between missing Arid Mesa in the draft and somehow not playing a land turn two. Ah well, with a cube a day (sometimes more), I suppose mistakes are bound to happen.

[@roarmalf]

With all the interesting consideration about what to vamp for, I missed that you missed the turn two land drop.

[@ultrasuperkiller]

Also, 35:22 played the wrong land so you couln’t v-click

[@giancarlocafaro6734]

I’m gonna be incredibly selfish and say that you making some mistakes in gameplay is absolutely worth a cube a day. Please don’t stop uploading these. Been wanting cube content like this since, well, forever!

[@stevenpippin6079]

It's nice to know you're human. Sometimes it feels like there's evidence to the contrary.

[@glasseagle8368]

Mistakes happen 😊 good on you for owning them

[@thekid5220]

oh my god, weekends too? I'm not a religious man but these are surely blessed times we live in.

[@Princeofseance]

I use to pray for times like this

[@ichessekinder]

Ah, the Bloodtithe Harvester hits keep on going. *Chef's kiss

[@mwilykat]

Beyond the Arid Mesa stuff people have already mentioned, surprised nobody in your stream comments pointed out that you forgot to play a land on turn 2 in round 1/game 2 (when you got interested in the vamp/grief/ephemerate play)

[@DoomDG]

Yeah that missed land drop prevented clique the turn after and then karakas clique the turn after.

[@Marksmaan]

​@@DoomDGcliquing Tef may have mattered there. It's hard to stream and play well. Lol

[@nekrataali]

Okay, I'm not going nuts. I was like: "Did opponent cast an Explore? Surely there's no reason to skip playing a land when you have so many in hand. 500 IQ play maybe?"

[@Rallylabs]

@@Marksmaan He still makes less mistakes than any of us.

[@ericschrag4548]

I wonder if something in MTGO bugged because the "you can play this" highlights never showed up on the lands after that play.

[@mikexsquints7327]

Best MTG content on youtube.

[@goldcobraarima9819]

Can confirm that

[@cultivatedjerk5574]

Remember to leave a like, LSV is doing awesome work with the daily draft content!

[@LastFanStanding12]

“If he draws a mox, though…” LSV I love these videos, keep ‘em coming.

[@daesi]

Arid Mesa definitely didn't "fetch nothing" haha. It was a quad land when you passed it, you had scrubland and steam vents in your sideboard.

[@LSVargas]

whoops 😬

[@PVDH_magic]

This is just @@LSVargas farming engagement in the KZbin comments. +EV pick for sure.

[@calebyarbrough7705]

"there's a Red/White land which doesn't fetch for anything either" My man you've got a steam vents and a scrubland! That's quite literally a perfect fetch! Leaving the steam vents in the sideboard really messed up you decision making process with some of these picks.

[@Joecool292]

OMG THANK YOU! I was screaming at my screen there. Especially since he said 30 sec later "I really need to pick up more lands" after he got offered two god tier ones XD

[@DarthGandalf710]

I'm assembling my first cube and this is the best content to learn how to draft a vintage cube! Thanks LSV

[@quarktasche4997]

That Golgari-Dephts deck would've been spicy: Depths, Hexmage, Prime Titan, Finale of Devastation, Dark Ritual, Thespian Stage, Reclaimer, Wasteland, Crop Rotation - rounded up by all the black goodies you saw

[@tornadoeye]

33:16 did you forget to play a land on T2 or did I miss something? 😅

[@guidom3419]

it costed him clique and the game

[@gregorykelly8000]

He asked, "Could I have done anything differently?" Even intuition is spot on with this guy..??

[@jvacar]

I think LSV doesn't like O Ring because of that one time he broke everything O-Ringing an O-Ring that had an O-Ring under it and no other targets.

[@zivkobabz]

Love it! Awesome to see the Ephemerate + Grief combo.

[@zzafrica87]

I love those OG basic lands, great pick LSV.

[@milo8425]

The real siren in having a cadre of very skilled friends who are willing to cube with you online a bunch, I'd think, would be the custom cube options. I've found mono-blue cubes to be a tooooon of fun given how blue really stretches the color pie, but you're LSV, I'm sure you can come up with some FANTASTICALLY inventive cube ideas that'd tickle everyone's fancies. Also cheers to a great match and keeping us out of the semifinals at GP Portland team sealed in 2014(?). I'd beaten Eric but Paul had beaten our 3rd in the feature match, leaving each team's durdle-masters to decide who would go on to the semis. Our durdle-master was and is no slouch but of course you took it in a classic LSV uber-durdle win. There's not a more gratifying loss one can have in magic and we all still grin about it.

[@SmallBEANville]

LSV "I don't really have anything to deal with The One Ring" *mouses over Fractured Identity* hehe

[@danielscully449]

I dont know how i missed this episode, its the recurring nightmare deck of my dreams

[@tobias.k.oyarzabal]

Fantastic daily cube vid right on time as always (should be noted that anytime is right on time)

[@hamishfox]

Grave Titan and Recurring Nightmare sure is a combination of cards.

[@RaymondTBK]

GGs, great matches! Also got one back vs frog :)

[@jonathanellwood2093]

Daily draft content AND 2 Taylor Swift references in the draft? it's gonna be a good day

[@ModestAlmighty]

I love the little Mox Sapphire shimmy.

[@markchaney4469]

Excited that nummy could be joining you

[@aarontenner6362]

Louis-Swifty-Vargas??🤔 another great video!!

[@sllldllld]

Love the video!

[@gayedemiray]

omg that steam vents sitting in the sideboard impacted drafting quite a bit :(

[@h.martinez]

LSV was on mono-sleep deprivation this draft, for sure.

[@awestrich2172]

I do wish we could've seen the insane paralax wave value with all of those etb creatures

[@tituschalk]

It’s unclear at this point whether I’m living for anything but the daily cube draft.

[@hamishfox]

Mood

[@quinnquitars]

keep your head up king

[@dsnein]

Real talk

[@rprat350]

Titan over watery seemed incorrect at the time and in hindsight. Made the whole deck much more cohesive.

[@barkerm9]

I was in Denver last week, but did not know of Chiba Hut’s existence.

[@bdellovibrioo5242]

Ephemerate is a card that straddles the barrier between fair and unfair.

[@matias.salimbene]

Didn’t he missed a land drop 1st match 2nd game? Didn’t understood what happened

[@colesmith5114]

I think so, lol.

[@Nikolaj-qz9kw]

Yep... 😇

[@jeffe2267]

Cheba Hut does have some amazing sandwiches.

[@pauldaulby260]

Are there any sac outlets that go infinite with body double lark that are in the cube?

[@lindsayssbm]

Recurring Survival has joined the chat

[@felipeberbert]

I haven't played in some time, but why at around 51:00 couldn't he block one token with venser first, then ephemerate? This way he could keep venser alive?

[@melineeluna]

Given how much issue LSV had with Kaito's drones, I'm surprised he never boarded in Collective Brutality.

[@jacopodifonso4587]

Your Majesty where can i find the cube list? It’s quite different from mtgo’s

[@IfNedWereHere]

I’ve been LSV-Locked with drafts every day!!!!!!!

[@giancarlocafaro6734]

No, please, this is too much. I can’t handle this much cube. Have mercy. It’s just too much awesome.

[@joshdarnit69lol]

6:10 I'd be pressed to take elite spellbinder here when you have ephimerate. Using his effect 3x times is enough to completely destroy their hand. It's something I actively look for when I'm drafting emphimerate because of how disgusting it is.

[@Hanslineman]

Fractured identity over animate dead? The number of times I’ve seen LSV say he’s looking for an animate dead vs the times he’s said he’s looking for a fractured identity

[@francesthebard2758]

1:13:08 Could you have Waved three creatures, blocked and bounced Loran on the next turn?

[@Hunted0LessShirt]

Only if opp forgot to activate Kaito unfortunately.

[@Zetimenvec]

1:06:40 I was thinking Karakas bounced any legendary, and I was wondering why he didn't bounce garruk either on his turn or at least in response to the nissa, but then I RTFC

[@Damzified]

In your defense the original printing in Legends does say "Return target legend to owner's hand" ;)

[@Zetimenvec]

@@Damzified And to be extra charitable to myself, I've only ever played with Karakas in paper, never online. It's possible I've played with Karakas able to bounce non-creature legendaries before and nobody called me out on it.

[@Damzified]

@@Zetimenvec"Oh no, it's the Karakas!!", opponent says while scooping 'em up and boarding out their 10 best cards...

[@carlosmorel88]

Louis, where it LR vs LoL LOTR showdown?

[@AgrusKos]

11:45 LSV is a swiftie?

[@jonathanmontgomery5178]

Um actually Arid Mesa gets all four colors lmao

[@bigwig8657]

Which card, discard.

[@Dimpl739]

Surprised you never seem to consider cliquing yourself in game 1

[@Licw-Luxus]

34:34 "Would could I have done differently?" ...maybe play a land turn two? :]

[@ErikvandeKamp]

who do I have to bribe to join one of these drafts?

[@JWar-]

At 33:41 he just somehow forgets to play a land on turn two. Then he plays the wrong land that would have allowed a v-clique on Teferi. He definitely didn't have his coffee this morning. I'm no pro-tour winner, but I've never forgot to play a land.

[@ogtfromthefirstep1459]

He definitely had a "toasted" sub

[@alext.1244]

not to b "that guy" as this is an awesome deck, BUT man... there was an INSANE solid BR reanimator deck available thru these picks/passes that wouldve been super strong af

[@neil9525]

Match 1 game 2, did you forget to play a land turn 2 when you grief’d?

[@TheCollectorCrucible]

you forgot to play a land on turn 2 in round 1/game 2

[@forthedream3027]

no team decks this time? :(

[@goldcobraarima9819]

Day 4 of ask LSV to draft a Channel/Eureka deck.

[@lovelylemonfactory]

He's not going to do that. They're playing for money.

[@Mephisto707]

So an 8-men draft covers 2/3 of the cube, that means this is a 540 card cube instead of a 360 card cube. Pretty lame, to be honest. The only point of a cube is to know the whole card pool will be drafted. Otherwise, think how frustrating to be the only Storm drafter but neither Tendrils nor Brain Freeze are opened.

[@nthnthms1212]

Karakas is great
