LORD OF THE RINGS! Legacy The One Ring Hot Bant. Delighted Halfling, Forth Eorlingas, Uro MTG LotR

[@85mcarnold]

11:12 I would love to hear Brian’s inner monologue when playing against me, dissecting all my plays to find out my plan, completely oblivious to the fact that I have no idea what I’m doing.

[@Etaripamai47]

That's my kind of magic

[@aaronhooker7588]

Lol, this.

[@davidvolkmann547]

Ah to dark Bant or hot Bant, this is the question. To exploit the slings and arrows of bowmaster or to enjoy making up plural forms of Erolingusies

[@dallasbridgmon3743]

To Dark or Hot for Bant- that is the question Whether tis nobler on the field of battle The pings and arrows of Orcish Bowmasters Or Forth Eorlingas a turn of combat And thine opponent end them?- To draw -and scry No more; and by a turn to say we lose The life points of the thousand untapped shocks That Modern's heir to? 'tis a turn rotation Priority will pass. To draw- to scry- To scry! A chance to beat. Scry, keep on top For in that card atop what beats may come When we have shuffled up the battlefield And played game two; there is the chance This match can certainly be their demise For if I win the next two games this time My record's strong, the tourney continues, The pains of fetched up lands, slow play delays, The Companions errata, and the burn That untapped Mountain surely says, When he himself casts his Goblin Guide and Yet bares no Island? Who would Ponder there, The Phase of Main follows end combat step, But in the phase before instants shall rise That sorcery speed removal pales In timing restrictions, -puzzles the noobs. And makes them rather play yet more Hearthstone, Than learn the sequence which the Stack provides? Thus WotC doth make cowards of them all; And thus the constant feuds of resolution, Is sickening e'er to the those seized by thought, And Arena games of great ease and imagery, In this regard, doth attract new designs, And make the board proactive.

[@alasanof]

Multiple Forth Erolingas! should be called Fifth and Sixth Erolingas! and so on.

[@AaronRotenberg]

"We've had Forth Eorlingas yes, but what about Fifth Eorlingas?"

[@midnalight6419]

The 4th Erolingas is the fourth copy in the maindeck

[@marowakcity3727]

⁠@@AaronRotenbergI don’t think he knows about fifth eorlingas

[@wesleypollek4637]

Delighted halfling and the one ring are really warping the world of magic, but good to know that 4c money pile will be a solid strategy no matter which pile you're most attracted to

[@yawg691]

"I don't think I need to plow this halfling right now" 👀

[@alexanderdrakh5237]

Appreciate all your videos & hard work you put in on your channel.

[@BoshNRoll]

Thank you!

[@hoylt6242]

@BoshNRoll 38:58 The battle for the monarch was so unnecessary, when you had ring protection. Feels a little like you got baited. XD

[@Titanreaver616]

I loved the gameplay of this video, 4c piles are my fav, but the best part to me was the thumbnail. Definitely the best one yet, imo.

[@domotoroOfficial]

thanks for this league, Bosh! been loving this deck so far -Acid

[@einmensch6694]

Round 3, Game 1 was amazing. Really well played on your part!

[@rekenner]

A lot of people are asking if you think X new card is "healthy" or good for the format, but what do you think about the effect that all these pushed sets are cumulatively having? MH2 cards, Initiative/Minsc & Boo from commander sets, the LotR cards, etc. At least Retrofitter Foundry, Staff, Currency Converter felt good enough for the format, though not individually broken.

[@andrewpalella9923]

I like cards that are strong in a few strategies. Cards that are generally good and can just be slotted in anything are what feel bad imo

[@petemagnuson7357]

Excited to see the halfling in action, feels like most of the hype has been on the ring/bowmasters and occasionally forth.

[@Mattlovesstuff]

round 2 is quality vintage, strong cards bashing into each other's face

[@lds2795]

The one Ring is actively better in higher quantities as you can draw into it with the first ring then legend rule and reapply protection and stop the life loss from the burden counters

[@joshuakerlin5988]

I hope that when they ban "the one ring" that instead of just the normal ban announcements they post a video of them dropping it into an active volcano.

[@ninetythree2859]

Match 3 when you were worried about dying to Ring, you missed the line of "play Uro, Swords it with the sac trigger on the stack". I dunno if it was the best option but worth considering.

[@Zii_Vii]

That first round looked like you were playing vintage against a block constructed deck. That was a fucking massacre.

[@iNCoMpeTeNtplAyS]

Excellent atuff but i love the way your board looks at 39:00-40:00.

[@einmensch6694]

At 1:20:25, would there have been the option of, instead of casting uro: Prismatic Ending Minsc&Boo, then wasting the target of Wrenn's +1, take four, go to 4, untap, uro (get uro countered, but that wasn't face up at the time), have swords as backup? I think it's death in any case (they were too far ahead), but do you think this line would have a higher chance of succeeding?

[@jeam-mariedesruelle4670]

I agree that playing Uro seemed to be greedy. Your line looked better as “reb” proofed. TBH my line would have been Step 1: Put fetch on the top Put prismatic ending second on top Drop tundra Step 2: Tap trop, tundra, volc to cast teferi Step 3: Bounce minsc and boo Pass turn Waste the targeted land Opp probably replay mins and boo If he pumps before combat swords in resp, if not take the damage and sword at next upkeep when he choose which token to keep Anyhow your next turn is Drop fetch Play Uro Pray to get land and prismatic ending minsc and boo. If not you can still use the stp if not done previous turn. Otherwise if used you can still survive an ultimate mind and boo If opp forced in step 2: Opp has no more cards in hand Wait at upkeep to swords the boo token kept Waste in resp to +1 Untap draw prismatic. Ending the mins and boo Pass turn Take 3 from a land Get turn Cast uro If Op reb on step 2 Same play but OP still have a card I may have missed something Cheers

[@JUSTINBURPER666]

How many cylinders does the car have? Love it 😂

[@SirDanyTheWarrior]

Bosh with a control pile? Now this is the good stuff. ❤

[@anonymoususer5351]

Idris Elba does work in this deck!

[@elijahlyons8164]

you really have inspired me to play a bant deck in legacy, ill start saving up for the lands lol

[@BoshNRoll]

Let’s gooo. Good luck in your dual hunt 🫡

[@thatglockguy21]

I'm interested in hearing your take on CEDH /or Blue Farm updates with how relevant LOTR seems to be to the format.

[@BoshNRoll]

Good news! I’m traveling to a major cEDH tournament right now. I will have an update and hopefully a tournament worth reporting about afterwards. :)

[@farpasmasterfarpador9092]

From the creator of "Chungi", comes the new plural "Eorlingi"!

[@TotallyTribal]

RIP Minsc and Boo. Everytime we cast forth, I'll be comparing it to Minsc 😅, let's see which is better!

[@itsfong1]

I love in match 2 game 2 they fought over the monarch even those he had protection 😂

[@radiodemon5774]

Dark Bant with Sheoldred and the ring. Uncounterable Sheoldred off halfling makes the blue control and ring mirrors almost free right?

[@fosterdawson7339]

The thumbnail gave me big Chuck Tingle vibes 😂

[@Dracomandriuthus]

Forth Eorlingas looking REALLY good at ending the game

[@mierin9556]

Thank you for the video. Why no Basic Plains so you can Prismatic Ending Blood Moon or have white mana that untaps under Back to Basics? Does it not fit?

[@BoshNRoll]

Doesn’t fit in 4 color Uro decks usually

[@tjw880]

Surprised by zero copies of M&B with the red splash

[@BoshNRoll]

I talk about that in the league and in the wrap up. I would play 3 ring 1 M&B now

[@tjw880]

For sure, I made the comment only after seeing the decklist and not the whole video. Didn't mean to beat a dead horse.

[@tonydeveyra4611]

not sure if a deck with halfling, ring and sheoldred has already been made; if not it should be on the list somewhere...

[@BoshNRoll]

That’s been suggested but I haven’t seen it. Love the idea

[@ngbrother]

hafling lingas bowmasters and ring - Do you have feelings about new sets warping eternal formats so much?

[@BoshNRoll]

Nah, it’s exciting when cards shake up multiple things at once. I think legacy would be worse overall without the supplemental non-standard releases.

[@skylerstritzel]

not to be a backseat qb, but just something I noticed about replacing your ring when the burden gets too high, draw out the cards before playing the new one.Noticed it in the round 3 game.But Im so used to negative cost and activations all being rolled in together, can see myself making the same misplay.

[@BoshNRoll]

There was a Pithing needle in play

[@nickjensen1004]

At 52:15 the opponent's Urza's Bauble reveals Force of Will to you. Is that a MTGO bug?

[@BoshNRoll]

No, both players get to know what bauble sees

[@DoctorDraco]

@@BoshNRoll Is that true? Bauble says "look at" instead of "reveal", so when opp baubles you, you know what they see since your hand is known information at all times to you. But I would think not the other way around.

[@VivBrodock]

Forth Eorlingas! is a pretty damn good fireball

[@Morristung33]

Playing mordern ur murktide normally ,is this a good deck to get into legacy, I had most of the expensive cards in this deck and My lgs can do proxy on dual land

[@tribute731]

I don't think any version of control is a good way to try to get into legacy. You'd be better off playing an aggro or combo deck. It has nothing to do with your skill as a player it's just overall knowledge of the format. Most of the strength of control comes from knowing what threats you have to deal with and what you have the leniency to let go. These things change depending on the deck you play against, so that's why my personal recommendation is to start with a more simple combo deck or an aggro deck. Doomsday, Reanimator, 8-cast, and Death's Shadow are all decently simple decks to pilot while you spend your time to get a feel for each matchup. But also at the end of the day it's a game so play whatever you find to be the most fun!

[@terastodon]

I noticed you have a lot of decks where there's only a one of wasteland in the main, I might've missed the explanation but curious what your reasoning for it is. Like how do you decide that a deck can't have more than one?

[@BoshNRoll]

Karakas, Dark Depths, and Urza's Saga are all things I'm worried about with decks like this. I'm also a 4 color soup pile trying to cast UUGG spells and XRW spells. My deckbuilding rule is cast your spells first, then start solving specific problems with your remaining slots. That usually results in 1 or 2 Wasteland for this style.

[@terastodon]

@@BoshNRoll oh wow that makes a lot of sense! Your ability to pinpoint the problems your decks could face is so cool! Thanks for taking the time to explain!

[@vividplasma227]

11:15 T3feri would disagree with the second half, but otherwise yeah

[@crucible_of_words]

Really nice league.

[@dm1004]

Recency bias? entreat with top was very good

[@alexmaragh7766]

Ah yes 5 cards that win the game, this is the opposite of pod racing

[@MH-dn3jz]

It is almost ludicrous how easy it is for control decks to have full grips of 7 while also simultaneously not being at all concerned about the ring's damage to you. I know there are ways to punish these extra draws but. Wow. I'm not saying anything should be banned (and like. Better a 4 drop than some overpowered two drop in delver) but. Wow.

[@MH-dn3jz]

I will say the control mirrors are INTERESTING.

[@Olivia-ev9hk]

Opponenet loads into Bosh this king they will play a game of magic, turns out Bosh decided to play Calvinball today instead.

[@radiodemon5774]

46:28 in the video. If you had activated ring before your draw step you could’ve brainstormed to put terminus on top of your deck and cast it for 1 mana.

[@thekilla1234]

Miracle triggers off the first card you draw for the turn, not the card you draw in your draw step. If you use a spell or ability to draw a card before your draw step, your draw step draw won't trigger Miracle because you already drew a card that turn. As a side note, even if Miracle did trigger off of the draw step draw, you wouldn't be able to cast Brainstorm anyway because the opponent has a Chalice on 1.

[@tieurial9]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/gaWzfmmpfJJ5iM0 Sorry, I'm confused. Are Eorlingas the third or fourth piece of the trifecta?

[@adi9075]

i miss minsc and boo in that deck

[@julianlastname5730]

Why would you ever play Jace over the one ring? After you draw three cards with Jace you have to put most of them back

[@BoshNRoll]

Agreed!

[@thekilla1234]

You can't pitch cast Force using The One Ring. Confirmed garbage card.

[@einmensch6694]

@@thekilla1234 Just play Painter and name blue xD. Ring saved.

[@pokinalong4590]

Around 51:50, I think you missed between three and seven cards with The One Ring, for 0 to 1 life. If you don't mind the extra 1 damage, you could have drawn 3 in the end step, and then draw another 4 on your turn before you play the second ring. Not that you really needed the extra cards there.

[@thekilla1234]

Pithing Needle is naming The One Ring so he can't use it.

[@nooneatall5612]

I look forwards to a day where Boshnroll goes into a tournament to win with an uro deck instead of cephalid breakfast. No offense breakfast but you don't run Uro or Loam.

[@WhereIsTheIntruder]

So much for Lotr not being MH3. At this point it has had a bigger impact in modern and legacy than MH1 ever had, especially after the hogaak ban

[@quantum_beeb]

Before watching any games, I struggle to see Forth Eilingas being better than Minsc and boo. But we shall see :)

[@racg174]

hot baby? more like creamur

[@lightworker2956]

34:29 I would just have cast the second Forth Eolingas and be the beatdown. I get that you have a control deck, but the really good players know when to switch gears and start beating down.

[@BoshNRoll]

Really good players also recognize when their opponent has protection from everything. :)

[@lightworker2956]

@@BoshNRoll You're right about that, I didn't spot The One Ring, and sorry for being unnecessarily condescending there -- however the turn after that, 35:13 , you cast Loam when a second Forth Eorlingas would also have been better imo. (You had another Volc in your deck to fetch.) Fun video though, thanks for the content.
