Over the Top Combo - Brothers' War Standard - MTG Arena

[@spencerbell8386]

Just this week alone we’ve gotten Aggro, Midrange, Meld, Historic Brawl, and now a Combo video. LVD truly an MTG Renaissance man!

The devilish valet in the 2nd game would have had 262,144 power I believe , if you made as many creatures as possible

[@temporaltomato3021]

Wow. If your average eldritch Eldrazi god has 10 or so power, what does 262,144 power look like in-universe?

[@DarkRuler2500]

[@syferpolski4344]

Devilish Valet probably get a lot of EDH exposure

[@Colorado0091]

Just wanted to say, that I think your channel is the best MTG channel out there! A bit off topic but I really love your Izzet Duplimancy deck you made some weaks ago, it rules in standard and wins even against mono red aggro/ mono black. I tweaked it a little bit by including 2 Iconoclasts and 1 Slip out the back. The only thing I regret, is that I didn't get the idea for such a great deck.

[@ShadowAngel005]

@legenvd: This gives me vibes of the old Warp World deck from DOTP 2015... had a lot of fun with it.

[@JTAK884]

Been waiting for another LegenVD video! Time to enjoy!

[@antoniopaolucci8194]

This reminds me a lot of a Warp World deck I used to play back in my day. Very fun deck.

[@MrValladares10]

I love seeing the smart decision making in the heat of a match. Game 1 was really intense! Keep up the amazing content!

[@angelogabriel6862]

This reminds me a lot of Warp World, some 10 (maybe 12) years ago. Not the most competitive, but very entertaining to play! Keep it up!

[@LegenVD]

That was one of my favorite decks in the Duels of the Planeswalkers games! There's an old video of mine where we get our AI replacement opponent to zero permanents: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iGKzn52ldr6VgZI

[@angelogabriel6862]

@@LegenVD we use to play with Hellkite, for the insta kill laughs haha Nice clip. It's a shame that we don't have access to such cards, it would sure make the Arena experience feel much more entertaining. Hopefully they will add more gems soon :)

[@fuehwbdb3765]

There is actually a maximum of Devilish Valley DMG you can deal. It should be somewhere between 2 and 5 billion.

[@LegenVD]

Yeah, I've gotten there before in an older video!

[@TheMegaEggers]

I'm glad you always keep your cool. Just know I rage on your behalf when the opponent curves out and top keks.

[@mcfluffy52]

I saw Mtggoldfishes combo version of this deck and thought it was brilliant the way they would be able to loop it, but this is also a genius combo I never thought of using devilish valet to turn it into a kill card

[@strangelaw6384]

37:57 blue white angels? with the number of white removals currently in standard, even monowhite angels is pretty good

[@Rusaarules]

A white deck topdecking Brutal? I'm shocked.

[@gregorym7588]

every opponent has 4 brutal cathars and 4 invoke despairs in the top 30 EVERY TIME

[@jakobgelhard8834]

14:10 If they call your bluff and block with Cathar your Greeters die to the second Elder Dragon War, don't they?

[@LegenVD]

Good point!

[@julianmhu]

Deleted my comment since Jak beat me to it.

[@Kryptnyt]

I think if they do that, he has some good plays he can make by just playing the first EDW.

[@joedoe7572]

@@LegenVD One thing you weren't considering, since you packed your deck with permanents, when you were worried about not having enough permanents out to get full value from Over The Top, you can cast OTT, pass turn, and then cast another one for way more value than the first time and than your opponent

[@NightChime]

Any deck with Gala Greeters and Stimulus Package is a good time in my book.

[@uruson]

19:30 - Lethal if you sacrifice 5 treasures to Stimulus Package. (4 on board, 1 from shaman attacking) (Power: 2-4-8-16-32) Match 7's Grixis deck looks interesting. If I start playing again some kind of crown sacrifice deck might be fun.

[@thcdreams654]

I just watched All Quiet on the Western Front too. Great movie. Thanks for the content man.

[@mulch8995]

[@nepymonne]

Hello there at the end, like Kenobi! Haha

[@rabidcabbage7230]

amazing deck!

[@SirMcAwesome]

14:11 attacking with the jewel thief there was a mistake I think. If the opponent decided to block with the 4/4 kathar, it would have been left on 1 health, died to the first dragon war, meaning the freed up gala greeters would have died to the second one and left you with no blockers.

[@LegenVD]

Indeed, although I don't really see them blocking in that spot either.

[@clon1122]

It's really nice that mono white soldiers have 2 toughness. Actually promotes counter play at least.

[@TCstorm08]

Built this deck in paper. Can’t wait to play with it at FNM ;)

[@davestier6247]

A happy and safe holiday to everyone ( provides a lot of value)

[@paladisiac]

[@The_GamingChef]

During the sealed pre-release at my local store my opponent was about to swing for the win to see if over the top "is good" upon resolving the spell, they gave me a platinum angel and I ended up winning with -16 life 😂 Afterwards he let me know "it's not good"

[@geronimo8159]

"What?! There's no way that can be right!!!"

[@mol2626]

Hi, i recently got back onto magic, i remember liking your videos!, i got recommended this deck when i typed "LegenVD starter deck" its this what i should strive for?

[@LegenVD]

Haha wouldn’t call this a starter deck. Have a look on Untapped.gg to see what the Standard meta looks like.

[@kombatklown6016]

I cannot find the couriers briefcase. Was it removed from arena? Is there something I'm doing wrong with my filters? I have on collected and uncollected in standard green and colorless.

[@kombatklown6016]

Nvm I figured it out lol

[@JRandall0308]

Wow - don't often see a loss in the first game! But it made me all the more eager to see the win.

[@bloodwire7152]

Uh hu 1 minute since released, nice

[@archons-court]

oooo I'd assumed when Over the Top put "the rest" into your graveyard it meant all the permanents you had before using it But it does not mean that at all, even slightly my goodness

[@gamerforever2007]

[@milesalpha1]

Virtually all the kids play the same deck, it's pretty humourous.

[@RekiemStyle]

what?! 9000?!

[@parkerschuchart4710]

Can’t gala greeter and stimulus package go infinite?

[@endoroboto]

If Gala Greeters could select the treasure token option more than once per turn, then yeah that would be but no, not infinite with just those two cards.

[@Repaurcas]

This Deck is kind of over the top, don't you think?

[@MrSirbra]

Why not same idea but way over the top cards like portal or off color cards?

[@MrSirbra]

Even jetmir

[@LegenVD]

The more high impact cards you include, the less likely you are to get to a point where you can cast a big Over the Top.

[@mentefiamma1744]

It took me a while when lvd said "annoying vermin" to understand that he actually said "a gnawing vermin" 😂😂😂 I think it was very well fitting name

[@beejaytea5964]

what's your life total? uh, hit you for 2^X? lol

[@michaelborror4399]

Interesting accent but if you're ever trying to get your car parked, by a valet, val-a, they might think you wanna go to the valley, val-e. Great video anyway.

[@TheMattbrennan1]

I can't allow my opponents to hit me when I lose I prefer to just concede because I am a tremendously sore loser.

[@knessing7681]

Thought it was a video for a turn 3 or 4 artifact *(Goblin Charbelcher)* combo from the BrothersWar that does +30 direct damage, my forth time encountering this combo dealt me 48 dmg directly to the face. Faced this combo 6 times already since the new set and all resulting in losts. You know the game is ri gg edd as you need 3 specific cards to pull off a turn 3 or 4 combo, the chances to draw all three cards should be extremely low ... but it's mtga, the game "working as intended". Note of course I've tried this combo myself ... in 20 games never managed to pull off the combo or had the cards to late to pull off the combo. So the shenanigans is most likely triggered to your account, with a script/bot switching on and off, question is what sets off these triggers/scripts to mess with your matches.

Tell that to the people claiming that I only show games where the deck wins!

[@tenaciousshaman]

Legend - you seem like a pretty stable guy that doesn't let comments affect you, but just in case, I disagree with this. I think you should include these. It shows possible weaknesses of the deck, if every game was a win then the content would be much more boring, but most importantly, your thought processes for best odds of getting out of the hole were educational. The games you choose to show are great, keep doing what you're doing.

[@LegenVD]

@@tenaciousshaman I thought it was an interesting game so I included it. There will always be complaints one way or the other, no way to please everyone.

[@thisisashan]

the board wipes almost always hurt you just as much. -4 elder dragon +4 fling... which gets around all the phasing, tapping, and getting murdered the valet has problems with.
