HOPELESSLY DEVOTED TO GREEN! Legacy Mono-Green Devotion Tooth and Nail Combo! Rofellos, Emrakul MTG

[@jojosouma809]

Not a single Yavimaya, Cradle of Growth in deck with Rofellos, Gaea's Cradle and Arbor Elf seems like an oversight, was it to make the deck better against Wasteland?

[@BoshNRoll]

Yeah playing one would be smart. It wasn’t in the list I was sent and forgot it exists while doing my tuning. Easy upgrade for anyone who wants it :)

[@jojosouma809]

@@BoshNRoll oh that's understandable, I just wanted to make sure if it was intentional or not

[@brickchains1]

I was thinking this exact thing while watching the desk tech.

How many should we play?

[@neverwin2518]

Those decisive wins over UR delver were INCREDIBLY satisfying to watch.

This comment alone finally made me watch the whole video

[@tripxnip]

Since you have emrakul, you don't really need to worry about painter comboing that much

[@BoshNRoll]

...good call haha :)

[@darienboudreau306]

@@BoshNRoll Against painter one game you also had endurance, which, if they have no coutners, throws everything back in to the deck, paired with the emmy

[@resarox8237]

Since I play exclusively limited and most of it with my Legacy Cube, I was really hyped to see Rofellos and Tooth and Nail in a Legacy League. :D Great Video as always!

[@ZombieShibby]

Ruric Thar potentially kicking ass in legacy is something I'd love to see more of. This was a fun submission

[@willjoyce5013]

He used to come up more sometimes in SBs or MDs of say Reanimator, Elves or such but decks either tightened up their bombs, ran low on slots or found better answers

[@twzKevin]

Actually, there is a use for GSZ's double shuffle, which is if your opponent uses your GSZ, they shuffle their library after searching, and you shuffle yours after putting GSZ back in your deck! Might be relevant in a world of Ragavans

[@BoshNRoll]

Good point!

[@sabertoothpupy7742]

58:01 after sideboard a great target to GS zenith is Allosaurs Shepard cause its turn Arbor elf and Roffellos into game winning Dinos

[@orsettomorbido]

Exactly, this is good green in vintage cube XD Lovely! Something different!

[@PurpleDragonSpike]

57:20 I was chuckling so hard staring at the witness revealed, what a funny moment

[@ghostware6057]

I don't even play Legacy but watching UR Delver concede to Choke 2 games in a row eases my soul

[@rynotopdeckryno3726]

Typically not a fan of devotion decks like these, but the title alone earned a like :)

[@servantofdiscord3586]

I think the tooth and nail combo could be replaced with the 4th green sun and a carterhoof. This would free up the main deck slots to support more solid green creatures, such as more tireless trackers, and more hatebear bullets, like gaddock teeg.

[@BoshNRoll]

Yeah that’s what I said to Cino too after the league. He likes chasing that combo high though!

[@Pastrytime]

Nice to see the Sprawl/Wild Growth engine in another deck. For how powerful it can be it's sad it only really appears in Enchantress

[@shamuscrawford]

19:08 Emrakul do be looking good as a blue card

[@RickHardpack]

HAHAHA Big green creatures go BRRRRR

[@quille9879]

that's way too much black and red for this to be green

[@Vitalquelle]

i donated the decklist and approve this massage

[@perwagenius3721]

Thoughts on Panglacial Wurm? Seems like that can fill the niche of when you are doing fine for mana but have nothing to do, all you need is a fetch?

[@BoshNRoll]

That’s a sick idea!

[@abeybaebe2514]

Something about seeing Xenagos get cast in legacy makes me happy

[@markcargill1304]

I'm surprised based on the deck tech so far that you don't have a yavimaya cradle in here. It would be quite good for turning your nykthos, and Gaea cradle into more forests. It does provide another wastelandable land but I'm curious if that cost is worth not including it.

[@nthnthms1212]

Man, I use to play with Ruric Thar when he was in standard. He is just a big ole beater.

[@rastrisfrustreslosgomez544]

Oooph Rofellos.deck must be my favorite archetype **v**

[@imTatortots]

almost 10k!

[@simonpark6889]

At min 58 you green suns and didn't know what to get and how you were gonna make the most out of all the resources you had. I think you forgot that shepard also have an activated ability that could just kill your opponent. =P Not on that turn, but you could have attacked with 2 5/5's and tracker would be a 8/8 I think.

[@magisterludi4347]

think one Boseiju would be worth the land slot?

[@orsettomorbido]

To be honest, while I agree that is sad putting in the SB the reason this deck exists, winning/having more possibilities to win is much more important. It shows that you can and have to adapt to the situation in way that are not the "intented" ones.

[@golaren]

How viable is this strategy without cradle? I have most of the cards except that one😅

[@BoshNRoll]

It’s not a huge deal honestly.

[@Vitalquelle]

This deck started out as a modern deck and it worked pretty great back in the day ;)

[@disinterBaz]

4:40 Emrakul has "can't be countered" all the time so not being green for Shep is a moot point 😆

[@simenbo7788]

That “ah fuck you” hit different

[@Kotosuatz]

Green Suns is worded that way due to commandeer effects

[@willjoyce5013]

I definitely want a second Shepherd MD or SB for the Chalice and U matchups, it was strong whenever it wasn't betting bolted to bits. Admittedly, should likely be just playing Elves though that's obvious and clearly not the desire if you're playing this

[@goldcobraarima9819]

You play the coolest Decks dude :)

[@BoshNRoll]

Shoutout to my Patreon subs for providing them!

[@froggywoggy473]

Seeing painter - and Emmy as natural counterplay - makes me wonder if you couldn't play painter and RIP/Helm in the same deck

[@ThatDamnPipsqueak]

That is/was a vintage deck called Two Card Monte. I think Brian has a video or two of him playing it on this channel? @BoshNRoll

[@spyderman312]

Haven’t watched the video yet, just the deck tech, but I’m sure this deck is missing Quirion Ranger.

[@spyderman312]

I noticed you having some issues with the Nykthos count, like at 49:10 Activating Nykthos is devotion - 3 = net mana, because you tap 2 + Nykthos to activate.

[@hundredpercentjuice]

So mana opportunities in R1G1 to crop rotate for Nykthos as effectively "Free" (since you could spend the C on any of those tap out plays)

[@SuperMarioMaster2100]

At the end of the last game you could have blocked with rofellos and then played another one the next turn, creating semi-card advantage and keeping you alive after the stomp

[@LuKo3x5066]

Why naming green with utopia sprawl and not red?

[@MegaVultron]

Towards the beginning of the video you mentioned that resolving a GSZ with a Courser of Kruphix in play has you reveal the top card of your library after the first shuffle but before the second. This isn't true, as state based actions are not checked during the resolution of spells.

[@BoshNRoll]

Playing with your top card revealed isn’t a state-based effect. If you resolve Ad Nauseam with Courser in play you’ll get to see each card before you decide if you want it. If you cast Brainstorm you’ll reveal all 3 cards drawn and the 4th card down before putting 2 cards back and revealing the top one.

[@nathanr5023]

Boseiju land was a bomb back with tooth and nail. Before watching this though... why wasn't it included?

[@BoshNRoll]

The deck has Allosaurus Shepherd and Veil of Summer to do that same thing. Boseiju doesn’t cast most of the spells in the deck.

[@nathanr5023]

@@BoshNRoll makes sense. Forgot about al green not just creature spells.

[@atomskpk997]

Is kessig wolf run an option for this deck? Or is it's inability to produce green make it bad?

[@BoshNRoll]

Keeping the red splash small is a big deal and so is tapping for green. I think big enough creatures is the answer.

[@sobman]

G5, you add red mana via Nykthos, and green off of your lands. You more than likely wouldve won.

[@BoshNRoll]

You need red cards in play to get red off Nykthos.

[@Blubbywubby]

Luckily for Alosaurus Shepard, Emrakul is already uncounterable
