Deck with 4x Braids = instant like

I was curious how well the UW Tron could do against all the land destruction in this format. But seeing UW Tron fight against Port, LD spells, and Wasteland answered that question for me. And Teferi's response is awesome!

Thanks for these vids. Really grateful for the content. 🤘🏻

[@Heavy_Play]

Glad you like them! Very happy to be able to share our local Premodern community

[@alaraplatt8104]

i was rooting for the black deck but i gotta say teferi's response is an awesome card

[@philzura9612]

This is such a great quality content! thank you very much.

[@Heavy_Play]

Glad you enjoy it, thanks for watching!

Idk if I’ve ever seen the card Teferi’s Response before this. That had a crazy effect.

[@mattstrott753]

In all my years of playing I've never seen Grinning Demon! Just bought a playset! Cool card.

[@Heavy_Play]

It's great in creature-lite decks. Really needs trample against aggro and midrange though. Might be fun to try in Sui Black decks running Rancor?

[@mattstrott753]

@@Heavy_Play I like it. Going to enjoy trying to brew around this guy!

[@SnkHetz]

32:35 mines actually look like the urza's mine you are talking about

[@giorgiodalmasso9288]

4 Braids I'm in love ❤️

[@Return2Kayfabe]

game 2 i think you duress the impulse over swords

[@via_uthopika]

At 12:25 afterwards the tron player loses his blue mana (assuming that the land destruction spell was cast at the first main phase), but the ponza player is at fault for don't naming the phase, I think.

[@knuddeltrauma]

Teferi's Response - Counter target spell or ability an opponent controls that targets a land you control. If a permanent’s ability is countered this way, destroy that permanent. Draw two cards.

Gotta name soldiers with the first E plague

[@grodriguesbio]

Why no sinkhole? Is it banned?

[@Heavy_Play]

Was never printed in a Premodern legal set! (4th Ed through Scourge)

[@brunovieiradelimaaugustovi5939]
