"Thalia, that's something we might wanna strangle." - Words from every Thalia hater out there. Loved the deck LegenVD, I always wanted to see a deck with Urabrask it has such an annoying and strong effect. ❤️

[@bradleyhauf312]

Yeah totally... When I think vampire I think strangle right?

[@UnderScorePT]

Thalia: "harder daddy" °=°

[@linxzta]

@@UnderScorePT well technically it is harder… to cast at least lol 😂

[@ccsquared2442]

As a preferred control player, Thalia is the bane of my existence.

[@esendris1435]

Loved the replies 😂

[@eni7443]

So here’s a fun interaction: because urabrask stops the opponent from drawing, your opponent can’t deck out unless they use a card draw spell. You could lock them into ‘playing’ with no deck indefinitely if you can keep recycling your graveyard… and they don’t scoop.

[@rodgoesinya9947]

I missed the part where fun happens.

[@eni7443]

@@rodgoesinya9947 it’s a control player thing.

[@ItWatchesWithoutEyes]

This would be hilarious to flash in with _Vedalken Orrery_ or _Winding Canyons_ when your opponent is trying to win with _Jace, Wielder of Mysteries._

[@davidbollerott7538]

Saw that in a nummy draft

[@angelogabriel6862]

The card advantage is quite overwhelming. Really hard not to rage quit, when playing against this haha Keep it up!

[@ushbag]

I pulled 4 Urabrasks from random packs, but I wasn’t sure how to use the card. Thanks for your deck tech!

[@kaemonbonet4931]

Stick it in a deck with dranith magistrates

[@George-on5rb]

Hi nice video. I think Urabrask s ability that affects opponents is underestimated. Would love to watch a midrange deck with him again :)

[@lgabriel83]

Awesome! I miss your drafts

[@stripeybag6977]

Are we ever gonna get to the Urabrask and Drannith Magistrate combo? Just Boros taxes and rules.

[@zeichen95]

Thanks for this deck tech list.

[@sobrique8883]

I hear CovertGoBlue likes Jin Gitaxias decks!

[@ericgee6114]

I know vorenclex isn't the most synergistic but it would be cool to see all the praetors. Maybe it has to be in an 5 color explorer or historic deck. I know you featured one a while back when the first set of them dropped but these new ones are spicy 👌

[@CyberBuster93]

"So, we can do the wave." xD

[@abirosak]

LOL love to see the opponent concede up 20-1

[@BelieMyBurial]

i think you should go full cruelty and make a Drannith Magistrate/Urabrask deck.

[@olvynchuru1663]

A prison deck in STANDARD? That's something we don't see every day (especially not nowadays).

[@charlieday7731]

You're missing 70 cards and Prismatic Bri-- wait sorry, wrong channel.

[@silviobaiguini69420]

Isn't Lier a bit of a nombo with jin gitaxias and disruption? Btw best content on yt!

[@LegenVD]

A little bit, although we still get the doubling effect with all the cards we flash back.

[@CopieRightGaming]

Very cool concept to lock out the game. Did You experiment with rakdos discard and Urubask to achieve the forced play a bit earlier?

[@LegenVD]

Definitely considered going Grixis for some discard, but prefer the cleaner manabase.

[@CopieRightGaming]

@@LegenVD Ohh yeah Grix could be great! Didn't thought about it, this could be fun!

[@marginis]

Nobody expects the triple Jwari lol.

[@marcorodrigoramos]

would like to see some drannith + urabrask

[@redcherry5699]

Still new to mtg. Why did seismic wave get "negated" by interceptor at 8:09 ?

[@LegenVD]

It's the effect of Interceptor when it enters the battlefield. It essentially returns a spell that's on the stack back to hand.

[@PiousSlayer]

Hey LegenVD, are you a fan of Infect archetype per chance?

[@LegenVD]

I'm usually the one bolting Glistener Elf, but I appreciate that it's a thing that exists.

[@PiousSlayer]

@@LegenVD Do you have a favorite deck, archetype or theme of all time? Something that you'll always innately gravitate towards (regardless of how 'good' or 'bad' it is)? Edit: Added Theme to the question, since it can be a good differentiator in of itself. Some themes can be interesting to a person, instead of a specific archetype or deck.

[@randallbachir3695]

Hey bro!! Been working on an esper connive list, has good win rate, but maybe you could improve it? I’m having issues with the mana base. Let me know, would love to see your point of view! 4x sincopate 2x vanishing verse 2x kaito shizuki 4x obscura charm 4x raffine, scheming seer 4x void rend 4x devious cover-up 3x baleful mastery 4x obscura interceptor 2x doomscar 4x edgar’s awakening 1x eiganjo, seat of empire 1x plains 1x hall of storm giants 1x island 1x otawara, soaring city 1x hive of the eye tyrant 1x swamp 1x takenuma, abandoned mire 2x deserted beach 1x hengegate pathway 2x blightclimb pathway 2x shattered sactum 4x shipwreck marsh 4x raffine’s tower

[@Orudaiken]

Ditch syncopate, add cheap removal and card selection with draw or draw and discard effects on spells. Or more creatures to connive with. Maybe 2 less void rend as that is a very mana demanding card.

[@pppppffffffmmmmmmmnn]

Love Jenga Taxiist

[@hirayan8177]

Surprised Urabrask isnt in as much deck as i thought it would

[@dontaccoll]

4 toughness no protection, might have a chance after rotation, with small standard in autumn

[@ChrisM-jv2rw]

Love your builds ^_^ I was thinking it might be worth revisiting your mardu warriors deck. Raijuu + shakedown heavy. There's a couple other ideas I have for it but probably wouldn't compare to anything you come up with xD

[@joaopedrosilva116]

I like the name. Phyrexian prison. Make a Phyrexian tribal deck with new cards please & gitaxias too 👍

[@joaopedrosilva116]

Cant use urabrask + Sheoldred because it cancels Sheoldred ability. Sadly

[@Maldozer]

now this looks fun

[@weirddan455]

36:55 That seemed like an early scoop from the opponent right? Even though hullbreaker died, it was a 3 for 1 and the board was empty.

[@MetalHev]

They probably conceded in shame for thinking horror was safe from red removal.

[@llongone2]

More like the Horror player just had no idea what to when their lobster died. So, they gave up.

[@Kuryux]

maybe 2 lands at hand and stuff

[@Kuryux]

25:23 boring ur opponent to death, best wincon!!

[@dontaccoll]

match 1 was disgusting

[@huydang7313]

Opponent was a dumbass for discarding the Raffine

[@hoodiegal]

> blue-red control thanks, i hate it! :P

[@HarmonicResonanceScale]

i wanted to try this in explorer with drannith magistrate, containment priest, and elite spellbinder to absolutely lock my opponent out of the game. tormods/grafdiggers to beat greasefang's nonsense.

[@CyberBuster93]

BIG SCORE FTW! WOOOO! xD

[@AkumaSaad]

How will Urabrask interacts with opponent's connive strategy?

[@LegenVD]

It only exiles the first draw each turn.

[@michaelthaler9947]

Thanks LVD for keeping it interesting while the arena meta is sooooo boring!

[@BigRedShooter]

Isn’t Lier a non Bo with Jin?

[@SacredMagic13679]

How so?

[@thezerowulf2046]

If you have Jin and Lier on the board at the same time, you probably aren't worried about it.

[@LegenVD]

A little bit, although we still get the doubling effect with all the cards we flash back.

[@BigRedShooter]

@@SacredMagic13679 lier says spells can’t be countered

[@ccsquared2442]

Something makes me want to slide a one-of Arcane Bombardment into here. I know it's win-more, but still... 🤷‍♂️

[@disasstah]

This deck seems to have a strong core. I feel like you could swap out the Praetors with Bombardment and it'd do just as well

[@Fullmetal85]

While everyone else plays checkers, LegenVD plays chess.

[@colerockman385]

Urabrask + Drannith Magistrate

[@valor7388]

and Vorinclex :'(( ?

[@geronimo8159]

I just played someone using this deck and pretty much stomped it into the ground using a werewolf deck. Urabrask's ability didn't bother me at all. Maybe my opponent didn't draw enough interaction though...

[@vandafiorino7923]
