I second this. Love the detailed breakdowns, but it would be helpful to see the construction of the deck. I’m good at adding 150-200+ cards to my new Brawl decks, very bad at cutting it back down to 100 for an actual playable deck lol

@@devonpiersol1207 That's definitely the most time consuming part! Splitting things up in categories helps, as you'll see where you have too many cards doing the same thing.

Sorin is definitely one of the cards that looks much better in the alt art (the backside, especially). Love seeing you build him in Brawl!
@nurikhsan88212 ай бұрын
Because he is one of the most "anime" Magic character. Antisocial, badass, edgy, bishonen face, pale skin, long white hair. Sorin drawn by Ayami Kojima is basically Castlevania's Alucard. The one drawn by Livia Prima in the thumbnail here, is basically Sephiroth.
@FluffySpikeM2 ай бұрын
@@nurikhsan8821 Agreed on all points! Iirc Sorin was actually inspired by Alucard from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, so they invited Ayami Kojima, the author of that game's box cover, to do the alt art for Sorin in one of the recent Innistrad sets (Crimson Vow). To complete the circle of references. That was pretty cool, and that alt art is gorgeous too.

@LegenVD2 ай бұрын
It’s good but since it will usually gain life in the opponent’s turn it won’t synergise with Sorin.
@the.50caliberapple802 ай бұрын
@@LegenVD that makes sense, and I had considered that angle, I suppose it’s just another one of the 40 million life gain synergy cards available, and (having now watched the whole video) it doesn’t seem as though haste really was problematic.

Opponents always scoop when the game gets interesting. That's why watching brawl is very irritating.
@Derael2 ай бұрын
Well, the game usually stops being interesting to the opponent when it happens, it's generally quite clear when the win slips out of their grasp, so it kind of makes sense that people scoop when it happens, you aren't getting any rewards from losing on Arena.

I tried the Sorin/Lurrus but after playing with it, I think Amalia/Lurrus is better. Amalia is so much more fun and consistent. Prefer Sorin in the 99.
@LegenVD2 ай бұрын
Both are great options! Not entirely sure which is better. Sorin can be harder to interact with for some decks and gives the deck some added reach. Amalia is a great value engine and plays well with other graveyard recursion effects, so we're also more likely to get back Lurrus if it gets answered. Can't really go wrong with either commander.
