Grixis Giants | Explorer MTG Gameplay

[@chocolatepiegames3617]

“We don’t have any good matchups, we just have a bunch of matchups.” Never heard anything as relatable in my life.

[@octolirious5035]

MTGA emote tier list video when?

[@jackgillespie4594]

Giants not being the top meta deck of standard was the biggest shame in existence

[@amarauk9687]

I also wanted berserker tribal to be a thing but it always stayed at meme level

[@derekcline950]

I tried to make Temur Giants work with Beanstalk Giant and a couple of the low mana Shapeshifters. With Bonecrusher Giant, it felt like a good deck. But Eldraine was just too powerful. When Eldraine rotated, the format loosened up but the deck worsened a lot without Bone Crusher. There just weren't good early plays to keep you alive or develop and playing counters feels so bad in a deck where you always tap out. 2 mana shock and 3 mana 4/3 in one card just meant so much to the top heavy deck. A couple of early drop 1/5 giants would have gone a long way to stabilizing and turning on Squash (man Squash often felt awful after rotation). Why isn't Giant Ox a giant? Haha. Or maybe a decent flash giant could have made playing counters a bit better.

[@tatz717]

Izzet Giants was so good for like a minute. Tried building it in Pioneer and just didn't translate because it was too slow.

[@CullaHolme]

Even in standard you had no chance against a control deck, but at least you'd eat most creature decks for lunch. I think this video goes to show how OP angels are because even with hard counters like shutting off lifegain and collected company he still barely won.

[@MuteSpectre]

Coco under runestone into Boseiju said runestone is a legendary play

[@mikemoyer8162]

No amount of emotes will ever be as toxic as salty roping someone. Which is honestly my favorite type of victory, when someone ropes me.

[@surfinggarchomp2820]

I just tab out and watch youtube.

[@jamesrule1338]

The salt must flow.

@Mike Moyer, do it on the website, or there is a spot in the shop.

4:11 - Crim misses opponent attempt to crack their Fabled Passage and use Fatal Push on… a 5-mana creature.

[@Lunchbox_games]

"The Ole double-double, the in-n-out special" That line was gold

[@Princederbat]

I'm glad to see Crim is as worried/upset that we're going back to Eldraine as I am haha. Also, I know he was being sarcastic, but yes the lifegain from the Great Henge is probably my least favorite part of it. But that's mostly because I'm a burn player haha

[@starmanda88]

Proud of you for beating the omnath pile lol I didn’t think you were gonna pull that out!

[@F0r3v3rT0m0rr0w]

The overdose of salt on that roper someone call an ambulance.

[@christopherbryan160]

Of course some random gameplay video is how I find out Eldraine is returning next year. I hope WOTC learned something from Throne of Eldraine.

[@albinogoomba2780]

Heckkk no enjoy Oko 2: The Okoing

[@PandaDragon4Life]

"Mr. Streamer you're so toxic for using an in game FEATURE!" My god I love Crim

[@Tw1l1gh7]

>crim >grixis >jank Name a more iconic trio. I'll wait.

[@deathinabox777]

Emote rotation had me rolling

[@theborg7481]

Ah yes, the most crucial part of any tcg. Dunking on your opponents.

[@AaronRotenberg]

It's like Standard rotation. You change your emote rotation every year so your dunks are always fresh.

[@TheEvolver311]

Crim always brings the joy and cheerfulness

[@talamran7499]

4:26 "oh how the turns have tabled" took me a moment to realize what I heard

[@demiurge2501]

6:13 killed me lol

[@lilslug6782]

Crim talking about emote rotation. Everyone else taking notes

[@karolstopinski8350]

The rune stops coco. Nice! need to add it to my pioneer deck sideboard. Along with necromentia to stop combo decks. :)

[@tatz717]

Must. Have. Sideboard. Love the emote cycle.

[@WalletOwala69]

Giants should just have reach by default. lol

[@MidgarMerc]

6:36 why did Crim have to go so hard on Seth like that?

[@shadedcorner]

I approve of the title

[@jakeoppenheim3389]

This dude is my new fav.

[@jensalden7348]

Can't believe Crim isn't playing bo3. With his emote rotation as long as he wins one game the opponent will surely scope the match.

[@Dalenthas]

That Omnath deck played Escape to the Wilds just before you started complaining about Eldraine, you probably were thinking about that card when you started but since it's a sorcery it wasn't around for you to point to when you were done.

[@rayzeckz4573]

Finally A giant explorer. Thanx Crim

[@fromadhdtodndtomtg]

Gotta laugh, got a WUG Giant deck that is alot of fun to play as well.

[@FnordKyuss]

My wife and roommate made the giant deck joke back in lorwyn standard.

[@jacobpream6356]

Crimm has to be the most entertaining MTG creator. 😂

[@natepriebe2647]

That was some professional real gamer emote tek

[@THEalfalfa1]

Those giants really grixed their sis

[@xander_man]

Crim, never stop making janky Grixis piles

[@ZeroIsEven]

Hello at the end.

[@chulumpthebigmoneywizard851]

6:34 classic

[@LeMuzi]

I appreciate the motes

[@archangeljmj6008]

This looks fun, but crim your sound is a little messed up

[@alphonse2234]

I am convinced they roped because you are being toxic. If you didn’t emote it wouldn’t have happened.

[@alaraplatt8104]

crim.... don't make me want in n out

[@pr0fess0rbadass]

Explorer is life

[@Efiras]

I have a giant deck that I play in Pioneer FNM it is soooo funny

[@MrFragranceReview]

Title is hilarious lol

[@Chuubii]

Crim's performance style has changed since I last wayched him (had a hiatus) and I don't like it

[@harrybenjamin8202]

Emote crim is the best crim

[@EionBlue]

My policy on trash talking is that if you're not willing to say it when sitting next to a 6'4'' body-builder who will cave your face in the moment you open your mouth, don't do it, you're better off winning with your dignity (and face) intact.

Hi!

[@Urainium235]

I want to be clear on this - I have no issues with Crim using emotes. Personally I dislike it and think it's a jerk move but this is the internet..so par for course. However the reason "it's an in game feature" to justify "it's not a jerk move to use it" is rubbish. You know it's a jerk move and that it's generating joy for you and your fans potentially at expense of some random human. That's fine, it's funny, fans like seeing it - do it. But don't try and white wash that it's not a jerk move because the game doesn't stop you from doing it. The game allows people to salt rope - that must mean it's fine to do! The game allows me to spend $10,000,000 on cards - that must also be fine to do! Just because the world or a video game doesn't actively stop you from doing something -doesn't make that action a nice thing to do. Call a spade a spade Crim. It's goddamn hilarious for you and your audience dropping the sick taunts and mic drop emoji's when you have a flash threat - but don't pretend you'd find it just as funny doing that to bot. It's only funny because you're doing that to a person and the enjoyment stems from imagining the rug pull of emotions you could be sending them through.

i love giant tribal, its so bad

[@maxxieboy271]

Literally the cleanest possible matches are still dicey, but thats why we love giants

[@dionreed5388]

@@maxxieboy271 Iv actually been having decent success with this deck, about 50-50 which is great for giants lol

[@LeviClay]

dude, you GOT to sort your audio out. You background noise is always outrageously bad, and now you're putting a gate on there so aggressive it's cutting out your voice in places. You're a big boy on a big channel, get a mic and RX voice denoise! That ad read is painful.

[@davideleidi9361]

I dont really like the emotes thing, its a very bad thing to do

Leaving a like just because of the name of the video. Lmao

There's more BM in this video than an Old Folks Home.

[@Druidoftheyew]

I honestly hate when people do that stuff with emojis it makes me feel like you are just being a butthead. I don't have the money or time to grind arena so when I go with a janky deck it feels super insulting and like you would be like that irl. Just my opinion

[@Druidoftheyew]

@@DRKAugumon true that roping is worse

[@OddOddFred]

Your commentary isn't funny. Please stop trying to make every single play into a one-liner. This is unbearable to watch.

[@alphonse2234]

Complains about thoughtseize but plays it as well. Interesting.

[@ryanpattison6]

He didn't complain in the first game, he just stated how you shouldn't keep a fragile 7 in a format where thoughtseize is very prevalent

What's with the influx of low effotr Bo1 games? Show us some Bo3 so we can see if the decks you build are actually any good.
