Is Big Boros The Best Deck In Cube??

[@jesserobkin]

“this Khalif(a) was not too much of a Wiz” just dropped casually in between narrating the game state

[@nathanielmarks1754]

Also, "please don't daze me bro" was hilarious

[@wpease7]

LSV declaring his love for Big Red and forcing Boros, this is absolutely the best day of all time

[@wpease7]

And the guaranteed 2-1, as every LSV Boros deck finishes

[@chrisescamilla5885]

funny to remember the first time LSV drafted this deck was by accident. he was trying to draft UW control, got cut then realized during deck building that the red cards in his sideboard were just better than his blue cards

[@Kendal411]

That second pack is probably the strongest non-power pack I've ever seen.

[@epi1763]

"I got too many 3 drops don't really need more" proceeds to slam another 3 drop. The LSV special

"Seething Song is my Black Lotus"

[@AnMagicCard]

glad to know i'm not the only one who constantly confuses emberwilde captain and emberwilde caliph.

[@ultimateo621]

It’s fun to see LSV completely forcing a deck in a team draft

[@EFGruesome]

Nah, nah, pick 5 seething song. Clear signal 😂

[@Anusien]

It’s not really clear what else he could have done in this spot.

[@MatthewForsytheHi]

Just a Figure of Destiny away from the full Boat Brew experience.

[@jordanewers5375]

Why did he discard Firebolt when it kills Orcish Bowmasters?

[@angrybroccoli9409]

Does anyone remember Time Spiral/Lorwyn-era Standard with the deck Big Red? Could put a Deus of Calamity into play on turn 1 with the nuts draw.

[@hwago123]

Did he call it an Embereth Khalif?

[@Cjbuddy09]

haven't watched the draft yet, but: BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIG BOROS

[@Jack-in-the-Mox]

When did jtmc fall down to being the 6th best card in that pack fresh first pick?

[@pokesocomedy]

It would be cool to see some card or archetype breakdowns. Like oh you first picked tolarian? Here’s where you want to go etc

[@SessionalSalmon]

Never thought I’d see the day where red is a better ramp color than green.

[@ezrawright779]

Have you considered strike it rich for the cube? Seems good in big red

[@fjordojustice]

Big Red decks are always a fun time

[@ericfgaming]

Maybe Ravenous Baboons (or even avalanche riders) is a better anti-nonbasic slot than the miner? Also Pillage, but that seems worse than a creature.

[@sergiocristanchosanchez3839]

Have you ever considered supporting an enchantress archetype in the cube? Is it too weak? Too narrow?

[@turbobrew]

8:58 no consideration for jeweled amulet? Helps you accelerate out things a turn earlier which seems good in your big mana deck.

[@jackbauers4570]

Would love to see clown car in the cube, not sure if it's available on mtgo yet though

[@emiach]

Elesh has seemed terrible, assuming she will be cut for an OTJ card?

[@macramespresso]

[@benjaminwells1763]

I also show my age by calling that card Emberwilde Caliph 😂

[@cesarramon4636]

[@germanyjones2700]

M1G2 was so hateful. So full of hate. Bah!

[@GuillaumePoulin]

Can’t wait to see which card of the new set you are gonna try!

[@leotrollstoy2351]

Do you think there is enough red in the cube? Haha

[@moleculeman27]

Caliph? Am I missing something?

[@JackD1615]

It's time to stretch and enjoy some cube

[@collardcow4183]

I’m so stoked for otj cards tomorrow. And for Boros beatdowns today ;)

[@Anusien]

OTJ cards have been in the cube for years. Not many, I think, but I see Firebolt!

[@kungfupandaluver6919]

Yes it is absolutely

[@djstrum3946]

Big Red - no regret.

[@rezzytheskyguy]

This is great

[@thewakaemu117]

Hey LSV you guys should do a team stipulation draft where 2 or 3 players are given a randomly selected stipulation (aggro, artifacts, storm etc.) and they have to take the best card for their deck then the last player on each team has to draft normally like the best deck they can. Might be a really goofy time

[@marco5030]

3:26 pretty sure Glorybringer got taken of the cube, no?

[@dementievatz]

This cube changes so frequently, only LSV knows what’s in it anymore. I’m always seeing something that wasn’t there before, like Legion’s Landing today.

[@Anusien]

Clearly it’s in the cube because it’s in a pack.

[@whynotlin7998]

When it was Alphafrog's cube like 4-6 months ago, I remember Brainfreeze/Breach combo was taken by Luis every other day. What changed so drastically that it's been aggro for basically the last 2 months? Note: Draft whatever you like, just wondering ☺️

[@bevrosity]

variety is the spice of life

[@bricelory9534]

I think part of it is the consistent team draft format - where LSV is a known brain freeze terror so people will cut him if they suspect him going in on it. Additionally, the cube additions have been a lot of powerful creatures and combat-centric pieces which push the fair decks harder. I think LSV also maybe finds the Doomsday combos a bit more consistent, and he has gone for those a few times.

[@whynotlin7998]

@bricelory thanks, that was a helpful explanation. I mean back then it was also team drafts, but I get that the other factors push it out of the running now since we rarely see other players running that too these days.

[@Anusien]

He’s lower on all the combo cards than he used to be.

[@MarkChaney-b8k]

He is reliving that Mike Flores book who’s the beat down lol

[@BuffaloPicture]

IT'S FINALLY TRUMPY TIME?

[@Godflesh100]

I would love lsv debate Donald Hoffman
