I mean, the "look at top 3 with sylvan then dredge" to me says otherwise, since that's a very illegal play. Look at top 3 is a shortcut for sylvan for drawing your card for turn, and then 2 for sylvan, and then putting back 2. you don't get another draw after that.

I expected this to be a blow out for lands, but that was incredibly close through that last game. Despite the Choke and the Glacial Chasm, there were several times when just the right card would have turned the tide. A Force of Will or Surgical Extraction could have completely changed the outcome. Very exciting, right down to the last draws. Great match, guys.

@cemperableАй бұрын
Just resolving the Price of Progress before Glacial Chasm was on the board would have led to a completely different outcome. The window of opportunity was there, but Mengu chose not to use it (I think he gambled for the blowout win). If Mengu had played Price, Carl would have been at 1 life for the rest of the game and it would have been extremely hard to deploy the Glacial Chasm lock from that point, because he could never pay for it.

@@cemperabledelver has no removal for marit lage (besides the occasional brazen borrower in the sideboard), lands is good at controlling small creatures.

Yep, looking at the lists, there's almost nothing lands can do game 1. Their best shot seems to be T1 exploration into crop rotation/glacial chasm to try and survive long enough to get a lock or marit lage. Post sideboard they get a stalling option of mox diamond/sphere of resistance, but LotV shuts down their loops and Flash Hulk runs enough basics and fetches that wasteland and ghost quarter can't keep them off mana long enough anyway. And all this is assuming that lands is on the play or flash hulk doesn't have the combo T1.

Carl could have also done the life from the loam/sylvan interaction differently. Mengu gave him a less than great workaround. Carl can draw for turn, then library will trigger and he may choose to draw 2 additional cards. Instead of drawing the first of the two cards, he can instead dredge 3 cards, return life from the loam from his hand, and then draw his "second" additional card. As Carl is not drawing a card via library's effect when dredging life from the loam, he can choose to return the "second drawn card" to his library. This way he gets his draw for turn AND can return life from the loam to his hand, and not lose 4 life. Additionally, he can choose to apply the dredge in any order such that he can sneakily keep the 1st draw for turn, and also draw the first of 2 cards granted by library, then dredge 3 cards and return life from the loam in lieu of the second additional card, and put back either of the two cards drawn that turn in case he wanted to draw that 1st card next turn during his normal draw for turn. This way he can float a card on the top of the library indefinitely while still dredging to loam.

I had no idea you were officially allowed to take back land drops in tournaments! I googled it, and it's even allowed at pro REL. I mean the judges are obviously going to be a lot stricter because it's pro REL, but it is officially allowed.

Heya, love the content Carl. just a small tidbit, when casting mox diamond, you only discard the land as a replacement effect of it entering the battlefield, it's not an additional cost to cast the spell ;) otherwise, beautifully played!

Oh that's a really good point! It's important not to mislead the viewers. It's even something I technically know but don't put into practice 😅

I play a land deck for commander, and I'm cheering for the lands deck. Let's Go Lands!
