IF YOU CAN DODGE A WRENCH! Legacy Patchwork Automaton Stompy. Reworked 8-Cast to beat Bowmasters MTG

[@aidanquiett668]

I love how this random 2 drop creature made mostly for limited is now one of the best threats in legacy and vintage

[@janmelantu7490]

Artifacts are busted in Magic. The older the format, the more busted they become

[@jauntycatt]

And still a fantastic threat in Modern at that

[@2007Shockwave]

And I'm currently exploring seeing if this card is Pioneer playable... I think it's possible too.

[@janmelantu7490]

@@2007Shockwave heck, with all the new artifacts in Ixalan, I’m thinking about it in Standard

[@chadoftoons]

Scaling with protection is about all a creature needs to be good.

[@er45003]

thank you for the games- i was the doomsday opponent. my questionable G2 keep was doomsday, double ritual, double discard, ponder. i die to chalice 1, but you may have 8 forces, some flusters, plus rebuke. the hand is good against countermagic if i find any of 19 black sources, and if i keep mulliganing for t1 i lose to any of all those forces. again, questionable, but maybe defensible?

[@BhbtheRock]

Thanks for sharing! Fwiw, don't hate the keep

[@drpibisback7680]

That's really just the squeeze that makes blue stompy decks so good - a lot of the hands that are good against Force of Will are bad against Chalice on 1 and vice-versa.

[@quatzecoatl1795]

God that round 3 Hull teacher @35:00... Pay 5 mana, give your opponent 5 treasures. Sent em straight to hell, jeez

[@JohanShogun]

I’ve been playing this exact list at my local game store for 2 weeks, coming from standard and explorer on arena legacy is almost like a different game 😅 glad to see someone competent play the deck so I can learn something.

"Wizard templates these like cowards these days". Truer words were never spoken.

[@davidvolkmann547]

I have had good success with "Forging the Anchor" in this shell! It is fun seeing standard print uncommons making such a splash in Legacy

[@Jesin00]

"something-something ponder keep, I forgot the rest" and "moments before disaster screenshot" (35:10) both have me laughing and I still have almost half the video left

[@RedbeardKINI]

Well you got me: If you can Dodge a Wrench. This is one of the only Decks in Legacy I own in Paper. Great to see a new version of it.

[@glockninemill704]

Love your videos!! I built this and added one extra island and one ballista over 3 dismembers. Have not needed ballista yet but it feels good without the city

[@SpeedOfRound]

Saw you on the profs channel, that was fun.

[@BoshNRoll]

Awesome!

[@hayokamikaze5896]

What’s funny about this deck is that if you’re allowed to proxy Reserved List cards, this deck suddenly becomes incredibly expensive. It’s got so many EDH and Modern pieces that just have an incredibly high demand. Here’s hoping that at least duals get taken off the RL.

[@fiachhoffman9590]

i wish someone would do a chart with the history of the legacy metagame. it'd be so cool to see a timeline back to 1993, with all the sets and stuff broken out, and like a genealogy of the top 5 decks for that period

[@vitorodino8760]

Could definitely scrape the web for the data. Much easier for the last 10-15 years too.

[@daltonmekis]

After what you said at 6:46 I was so ready for the opponent to go Swamp -> Innocent Blood

[@matthewbeard7841]

Something in me was really ok with keeping that first hand in game 1 of round 2. I know hindsight is 20/20 and all, you didn't know the matchup yet, and that the no land hand was something you'd want to mulligan, but with Force + blue card to protect against being cheesed and with multiple baubles giving you looks at stuff to do, the hand seemed like it had a gameplan. Of course the last card they had could have been the Pact of Negation for the full turn 1 dumpstering, but even then that would have just been a "welp... nothing I can do about it!" situation, haha.

[@tommek47]

they gave hullbreacher flash for a reason ;)

[@1ntelligentDiscourse]

I vote for calling this deck 8-bash.

[@janmelantu7490]

Do any of the new artifacts from Ixalan look interesting to this deck? There are some cheap artifact cards that make multiple artifacts. I don’t think they would make it into a dedicated 8-cast deck, but they seem useful in an artifact beatdown deck.

[@FullBazaar]

I've seen "enough" 8-cast decklists online with some plague engineers in Sideboard (naming orc i guess).

[@zzztopspin]

What's the 1 easily replaceable reserve list card? City of Traitors?

[@itsswiftytime8209]

I wouldn’t say easily. The 1 City of Traitors made a lot of hands keepable for m

[@BoshNRoll]

Yeah. You can just play another Otawara or something without the deck taking a huge hit.

I will try Mono Blue like 8 Cast with Painter at EW

[@permabanter7770]

Is LED too cute for this deck? I love seeing that card do fun things, and it plays well with Emry. Can drop an Echo of Eons in for the btfo if you have Hullbreacher in play.

[@BoshNRoll]

There are decks that do that, but the Hullbreacher Echo package is just a different deck than this dedicated attacking version.

[@2007Shockwave]

While I may always call this shell 8-Cast, can't blame someone for calling this Dodgeball Stompy/Patches Stompy. XD

[@0entropy]

I remember your thread on doing it for the algorithm, but it was kind of disappointing to know ahead of time your opponent was going to take the trophy game based on the lack of an "undefeated" in the video title.

[@BoshNRoll]

I am aware of the pros and cons but my thread you referenced explains in detail the motivations that ultimately land things where they are.

[@ZoltarDeathNnja]

Hi BadBoros

[@firedrake110]

If someone asked me which card I consider the single worst addition to all the formats in the last 10 years, I'd 100% of the time windmill slam Thassa's Oracle. Card is the worst

[@nickthejack]

This deck getting to play both force of will and chalice of the void is so gross

[@Harbinger682]

Do you ever think we will get CEDH gameplay regularly on the channel? I would love to know your thoughts on the format in depth.

[@BoshNRoll]

Regularly? No. I’ll do my tournament reports when I have events to report on, but cEDH gameplay flops hard with my usual audience.
