Henzie Commander Deck Tech

[@LegenVD]

Let me know if this is something you want to see more often!

[@MrCyberGal]

Absolutely!

[@erosbronzo6518]

of course

[@edwinortiz1262]

hell yea

[@SuperRaids13]

Definitely!

[@brianjackson3595]

yes please!

[@lostgrief]

This felt like sitting down with a friend while they show me their deck. Really enjoyed it.

[@theaeskey2502]

I think I speak for a lot of people when I say I’d love to see more of these lvd.

[@BigRedShooter]

I agree, but are those his real hands?

[@HZRT_lgd]

Man, how I would like to see you playing commander someday. I always wonder how do you assess your gameplay do in multiplayer format

[@pr0fess0rbadass]

Would be hilarious if he narrated his thought process out loud

[@jimbo103189]

This commander deck looks like a lot of fun and strong too! Haven’t even gotten to the end yet but definitely like this more than I expected. Really like hearing your thought process behind each pick here. Definitely want to recreate it now. This video provides….a lot of value!

[@theaeskey2502]

Signature LVD.

[@CyberBuster93]

I truly love this. It's like I'm right there next to you as you explain your favorite deck to me in great detail, getting excited and showing me all the little details and lore and your favorite arts even. This is very wholesome Luca, I would love more videos like these!! 💕

[@TheStanishStudios]

This presentation was very slick, polished as always!

[@TheNecrossix]

After watching this video, I pulled out my old Breya and Anje commander decks, and did some sample hands. They may be outdated, but I still enjoy them. Thank you for sharing this content!

[@jackdaw8715]

I was really hoping for “and now let’s jump into some games and see how the deck does”, but great content regardless! More please!

[@XLASTKINGX]

This is fantastic. I figured you played paper decks but you never really show much. Commander is my favorite format and I hope to see more commander content from you, thanks LVD.

[@MrCyberGal]

Really like this type of content!

[@goldenostrichman]

I’ve never thought much of this deck when I first saw it, but after seeing it in play I need it.

[@Bluecho4]

This was a pleasant change of pace. It's nice seeing what kind of deck you run in the land of meat and paper.

[@dinochris2136]

Really interesting and well produced video for a change of pace :)

[@connorbourke2872]

Been thinking about building henzie since he came out- my fave creator making a decktech got me to pull the trigger :) awesome vid

[@Aerolon]

Thank you. Privileged to experience a bit of your world outside Arena.

[@philipbell915]

This was a great change of pace. I'd love to see some commander gameplay videos in the future.

[@matthhoud2359]

Love the Ultimate Guard double deckbox, I still use it from time to time. But for those of you in Europe, the German company Zauberhand has a 4 decks deckbox that can fit 4x100 double sleeved cards and showcase the commander. Perfect to have some choice for game night, and/or to play with people who don't have their own decks.

[@ryanquinn1257]

I do this with what are listed as 150 card clear boxes inside arkhive 400. Double sleeved commander decks perfectly for with some tokens (as long as it’s not one of the thicker inner sleeves) along with relevant tokens up to like 8 new and 12 or so when played in. The boxes are wide enough to have commander on top of the cards. Usually I take 7 decks and then inifinitokens and dice in slot 8. Ultra pro 150 count 2 piece box x4 inside arkhive 400.

[@RenounceDarkness_]

I have always loved the deck tech part of your videos, so it’s nice to see them irl!

[@davestier6247]

love this, I bought the Henzie precon and have been slowly upgrading it. would definitely like more of this content. ( it provides a lot of value )

[@HZRT_lgd]

A perfect follow-up video would be you piloting the deck 😁

[@thyago86]

Very interesting format of video. I really liked it.

[@JohnChronakis]

I love the tactile feeling of this video. I haven't played constructed paper magic since the pandemic happened, and I hadn't realized how much I've missed it.

[@TheCrystalGiant]

The production value is great! Keep up the awesome content Luca!

[@rjk111089]

Just got around to watching this. Really loved this type of content. I can also really appreciate how you break it down in such an organized way. I would love to see more and would recommend this type of video to others that I know. Excellent work.

[@thcdreams654]

I think this type of content is awesome. Thanks for the great entertainment.

[@mus0u]

this is such a sweet build! my favorite edh deck is athreos, shroud-veiled that is also built around ETB value and flicker/sacrifice effects. i love how the blitz mechanic offers such a natural fit for this kind of thing, and being in green for ramp is always a boon.

[@davelawrence9100]

Yeah, love this style of video. Great to see what paper decks you play. It gives us an insight into what you as a player value, as paper decks have a sense of permanence that digital decks don't always share. Thanks for showing us!

[@LegenVD]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@ChrisStretten]

Fantastic video! I love the format and editing. Nice to see a deck explained in such detail, and in paper.

[@elliotthood1719]

Food chain could also help casting Henzie multiple times for extra discount. Love the deck tech. Excellent stuff

[@sharpiestripes]

This was a pretty cool experimental video! I feel like the way the cards are being introduced/displayed can be refined a bit, but I look forward to seeing more content like this!

[@mateotrimboli1232]

OMG, I ve been wondering for so long if you played commander. Great video, would love to see more!!

[@ericmason1285]

Love this! I use a lot of your brawl decks for commander inspiration, so raw commander is awesome!

[@IBN5100SG]

This decks really seems to fit LVD style, at last when comparing to the usual deck techs for Brawl - a lot of value and synergy, but not too combo focused, plus a few pet cards that might be sub-optimal, but are fun to play. Glad to see you are on the more casual side of the commander world and bonus points for Moldgraf Monstrosity. :)

[@amarauk9687]

What a surprise! It's always cool to know the deck-building process of others - and the editing was top-notch as always Now we only need to see it in action ;)

[@Legov7]

Fun video format! I will never build any commander decks (since I don't play Magic), but this is very interesting and entertaining anyway! I do enjoy the deck tech parts of your normal videos a lot, so that makes sense.

[@jakenhsman]

Didn't realize you played paper commander! I'd definitely like to see more, thats basically been the only format I've been playing for the past year

[@User-jo7jp]

I love sundial of the infinite! I like pairing it with certain powerful extra turn effects that lose you the game like final fortune, last chance, glorious end and chance for glory. add in some creatures like phyrexian dreadnought, eater of days and hunted horror with some redundant torpor orb and angels grace effects... so fun!

[@konachan01]

This was an entertaining and well structured way of showcasing a commander deck. I dont play tabletop but i enjoyed it nonetheless.

[@james-andrew-adams]

This was great! It reminds me of when I played paper MTG when I was younger and could afford it. Would love to see other decks if you have any!

[@davidhoar75]

Woah, LVD made an EDH video AND he made a deck with a commander I also use?! I accidently made my deck extra greasy unintentionally because it loops with kogla, agadeems awakening, and eternal witness/timeless witness. I also went with jamming in most of the high cmc cascade creatures so you can blitz on the cheap and cascade for a high cmc! V A L U E

[@soybomb777]

Already like this new format!

[@tajicbladeofthelegion5474]

I'd certainly like to see more videos like this! Do you think there's any chance of seeing commander gameplay someday? Maybe not even on this channel, but even going on one of the many already running shows for a game or two? Also, what about more MDFCs? The Mythics especially, as Agadeem's and Turntimber both synergize well with the gameplan, and Shatterskull works well with all the ramp. Also Bala Ged Recovery to get back a creature and blitz it all over again.

[@LegenVD]

Can definitely play around with the utility lands, Castle Garenbrig is also on the shortlist. I prefer Agadeems in decks with a lower curve generally.

[@drsherifff]

Id love to see some MODO Commander content, or some narrated paper commander. Your thought process is always very refreshing to hear.

[@hintze7212]

Such a great video. I love the idea of more videos like this showing us your paper decks. 10/10.

[@fivefive3689]

Yeah I’d really enjoy more of this. I’d LOVE to see your take on raffine or lonis

[@joserodrigorivera5869]

Hope you'll be showcasing an event playing this deck! I've seen you play paper Magic and your mastery of the game translates in that format as well

[@solenaisaac820]

i would LOVE to see more of your paper decks Lvd. it would be awesome

[@perryhunter1]

Always love the videos regardless. This was awesome because I feel like magic players kinda play all formats but have a preference. Would love to see more paper decks

[@dustinross2618]

With Treeshaker Chimera you said "draw 3" (which is true), however; Blitz also draws a card when the creature dies. So you can technically draw up to 4.

[@LegenVD]

Indeed!

[@bendungeon5677]

I love it. I am sure this means a lot more work but it is worth it!

[@markbuckler4793]

The editing is so good!

[@ouiouifrenchbred1127]

love the new style of video!

[@williamscerbo458]

Grave Pact is my pet card in my henzie deck. Acts as removal when blizted creatures get sac'd at the end of turn. I didn't think about Sundial of the Infinite, that is a great inclusion - I'll have to swap it out of my Rionya deck and try it. Thanks LVD!

[@shikko2601]

Very nice Deck tech. I wish there where a updated version^^ love henzie

[@logangrzesiek8749]

Ah hem - playmat, good sir. Don't leave us hanging, haha. I envision a nice Foglio one, like Goblin King. Absolutely do more of these.

[@LegenVD]

Don’t have a fancy playmat especially for this deck so I didn’t mention it. My oldest commander deck has one though.

[@paulhedges4625]

A friend of mine recommended this video to me since one of my favourite decks I've ever made is Henzie. I loved your video; our decks have different strategies and the cards we didn't overlap made me think quite a bit. Illharg, Kogla, and Archon are all creatures I hand't considered before. Just of the sake of mentioning differences, my Henzie deck's goal is to blitz as many creatures as possible per turn. I run about 40 creatures, 40 lands, and the rest is just removal and other utility. My main method of winning is though extra combat creatures such as Port Razer, Karlach, Scourge of the Throne. Again, loved this! I'm subscribing today :)

[@LegenVD]

Welcome!

[@blacknyancat5602]

Love this video! Please do more in the future.

[@07LpCRLp07]

Loved this content! The deck looks really fun would love to see you pilot it!

[@Besmudged]

wat zo fijn is aan hello fresh is dat je een compleet gerecht op tafel kan zetten zonder al te veel afleeiieieieieiedidiid

[@stixbunny]

I got this one! Thanks for sharing your picks :D Don’t really play proper commander as I only have one other person to play with but it’s really powerful, you do have to track quite a lot of triggers

[@ilikeapplepi]

I appreciate the english overlay on the non-translated cards! It was seamless and I didn't notice until halfway through the video. If I were to suggest one thing, it would be to place high-quality card scan overlays over each card as they are zoomed into, to maximize readability. Otherwise, this was presented cleanly and I enjoyed it very much. Thanks LVD!

[@LegenVD]

Considered doing that, but would've taken me half a day just to do the overlays. At that point I would just not bother with the paper cards, although then it would lose a little bit of the charm.

[@fivefive3689]

I’d also really like to see a live group commander game with you and some friends.

[@gladiator1173]

Love the commander content! Id love to see some deck presentations on other decks you've built!

[@sundowneyes]

honestly would love to see Mr. LVD play commander!

I don't watch EDH deck techs usually, preferring EDH gameplay, but i'll also check out any LVD video.

[@CinemicMagazin]

Do I want more? Sure! This sure came out of the blue! Can you make a mono black commander deck? ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

[@andreasheld2362]

Interesting format, would love to see some games in Arena (if there's an equivalent version of this deck) see how it works in actual games.

[@hirayan8177]

a suprise for sure but a welcomed one

[@TheLokchi]

Yes, please. Would be interested in some alternative considerations too, like "why this card over that one".

[@SimicFishCrab]

Love the video, watched the whole thing waiting for the gameplay part haha, maybe you could stream a couple live games using SpellTable and upload the videos here?

[@Olivreira_]

now i need to see this in action

[@archeon1873]

more edh content please

[@SirGrimLockSmithVIII]

More of this pls hell yeah

[@linkuko8516]

I like this type of video !

[@Sdizzle7]

nice list. Theres some cards that can be updated in this deck and are must adds. -Ziatora, the incinerator -Riveteers ascendancy -Ojer Kaslem, deepest growth -Vaultborn Tyrant. Secondly, not having Skull Clamp is a mistake. for 1 mana, you are drawing 3 cards from the blitzed creature dying instead of 1.

[@LegenVD]

I’ve updated the list since including Skullclamp and some of the others you mentioned, check out my reply to another recent comment.

[@gamingalthepal]

At 15:36 you mentioned that you might have played a little bit of modern in the past. I think it would be cool if we could get some modern gameplay!

[@strawman6578]

There are some modern (mtgo) videos on the channel.

[@Skyhighjettalone]

I'm torn. I love seeing my favorite creators branch out and try making different or innovative content and this definitely sits comfortably in that category. But I'm leaning on the non-paper side of magic more and more lately, not necessarily because price is prohibitive( though it can be ). But because I have to worry about storing and protecting and carrying(and even losing track) those cards. Not the worst if you think you only need 1 copy of anything. But what if I have a commander that I also want in the 99 of a few other decks. Owning multiple staples so I don't have to worry about deconstructing one or more decks so I can form another is just slightly too much on the cumbersome side for me.

[@dacukinibblah3317]

Love this, although I'm sure the cost of continuous production would be WAY higher than online magic. Also I think a lot of players see the channel from playing the game, so they might connect a little less. Still very cool though. Very rare to see a magic arena video that isn't just deck tech - matches - commentary. Very creative.

[@bombarded15]

Love the paper magic content! This was a really engaging way to present a deck, great work! Can any LvD fans point me to other paper channels they like? Cardmarket does great standard and mordern, but that's all I've found before the algorithm drowns me in Post Malone and Tolarian Academy :S
