MONO BLACK RAMP 💀💀 Standard

[@P3rvenc]

5:40 could have played celestus before casting cutdown, would also make it not go to night at the same time to ambush

[@glorybringer8817]

he miss to play celestus again later in that game, absolutely nooben

[@kueapel911]

Missing the celestus entirely always triggers me, and I thought I am alone lol

CGB you noob

[@RadiJaeger]

13:40 That's the kind of cool info we love you for CGB !

[@GellyGelbertson]

love an active demonstration for APNAP

[@tns4]

@@GellyGelbertson thank you for giving me the acronym to google and learn something new! I’ve been confused about the order of “simultaneous” triggers ever since meathook mirror matches

[@vermora356]

I'd consider 1 Sheoldred (the 5 mana one) in a breach deck, for when you really need your breach to be a removal spell. Plus it fills the opponents graveyard, letting you transform it.

[@Nova63_]

I use vraska for that purpose, her -2 does that but you choose the target, and she comes in at 6 loyalty with breach too

[@lazarus845]

I'd also consider the 1 Sheoldred to give multiple targets to the back half of Realmbreaker.

[@ciaran.downey]

He literally talks about this at the end of the video

[@kimikim8805]

Watch til the end 😅

[@getlooky736]

​@@ciaran.downey kinda, I mean mostly he just talks about how invoke is so much better but yeah, he does mention it.

[@comedyman4896]

The worst part about playing a deck without Fable is, you have to play against decks that play Fable. God, I cannot wait for that card to be banned.

[@mariand.1087]

I had all the cards so I decided to give this a go on the diamond ladder: Game 1: On the draw against mono green, I was dead on turn 5. Game 2: On the draw against mono red, I was dead on turn 4. Game 3: On the draw against bant pile of creatures, I was dead on turn 6. Game 4: There was no game 4, I deleted the deck (lol).

[@maxwimmer8185]

Thalia, .... changes nothing. other then my bloodpresure! 😂😂😂 dude u are so god damn funny

[@cmfrtbly_nmb]

That other Mono Black opponent learned about APNAP interactions today lol

[@darken8649]

Hey CGB, I never ever comment, but I just wanted to say I love when you do mono black, your deck ideas are always pretty good, also I did in fact watch the scryfall video and that was ridiculous, the guy didn't even give you the whole text box! Lol. Anyway my friend, I've played against you on the ladder many times and that combined with your videos, I always learn something new! Youre an awesome skillful player, and I wish you the best my friend.

[@marekjurcik]

JEDI MIND-TRICKS at 2:39!-) "You pass the turn now." LOL

[@nickb6839]

I like running corrupt instead of breach. Nobody expects the mono black burn spell, 6+ to the face!

[@akumamatataaa]

It's so good! 🤩

[@NoActuallyGo-KCUF-Yourself]

I was so happy for the reprint. I've been Corrupting face since M11!

"Thalia.. doesn't change anything.. other than my blood pressure.." LOL

[@OneRankHigher]

Thank you for blessing the timeline with yet another video King Blue 👑🙏

[@stefanoriva1738]

Sheoldred and Invoke won games singlehandedly... someone is surprised???

[@almightygible9764]

With the increase of the reanimator decks, ive had a lot of success using Dreams of Steel and Oil rather than duress.

[@LordZurkov]

This is the way. Early it hits their tasty creatures before they get to enjoy them. Late it hits their graveyard to keep them from getting GY value from any of the various bootstrappers like Underdog or fat reanimator targets. Sometimes you get to hit good targets in both hand and GY, which can be absolutely backbreaking.

[@almightygible9764]

@@LordZurkov I have had several turn one scoops because I exiled their reanimator target 😂😂😂

[@samuelrw2696]

That video turned out to be funnier than I expected

[@moaf2padventures757]

5:27 is there a reason we dont play celestus into cut down? feel like i might be missing something obvious.

[@zeusalternative1270]

Probably just an oversight, it happens to everyone

[@newstyla8579]

Alot of missplays in the last Videos.Too much Stress making a new deck everyday i suppose.

[@JeffDarkspawn]

Your mono black vids are my fav videos ❤❤❤❤

[@comedyman4896]

4:48 that moment when you forget that playing aggro actually requires thinking and not just clicking on every card that's highlighted

[@TuberTugger]

22:32 - Definitely should have used the +2/+2 mode before swinging. I know, hind sight. But even if they don't have it, that extra 2 damage is huge. But it's 3:30 in the morning so I'll give you a break

[@egoish6762]

4 mirrex would make the mana base, the tokens as a wincon or sac fodder and still taps for black on etb turn so it does mess up invoke unless you get super unlucky

[@redarndiculous]

There he goes with the main deck duress. We all knew it was gonna happen

[@simonjimenezruiz1432]

what do u think about playing gix, yaugmoth praetor? it does a nice combo with sheoldred and can be fetched in the realmbreaker sac play.

[@scyven1]

Realm breaker is so much more fun in a 4-5 color praetor deck…nothing like letting the opponent think they’ve won attack with everything and then you tap 10 on their turn, and all the big Praetors land and completely destroy them😎

[@carlitosbro]

I can clearly see how unfair despair + sheoldred is, it easily won the first game.

[@goreobsessed2308]

I was avoiding standard because I hate those cards guess I'll be waiting for another year

[@ventus_storm]

@@goreobsessed2308 Bans are coming out in a few days

[@Kreenick]

Invoke despair and Sheoldred aren’t even top 5 in best cards for standard

[@goreobsessed2308]

@Kreenick never said they were but they eat my control decks alive unless I bring spells to stop em then I get aggroed

[@marcprins3841]

do you evr make decks with bankbuster ?? our can magic players not win anymore without bankbuster and falbeld

[@moaf2padventures757]

lol cathar-ing a tresspasser vs mono black seems like a play that might come back to haunt you at some point in the immediate future...

[@matteoferrandino3348]

ahah i loved that show buffy vampire slayer! the good old times

[@mnsonio]

Where did you make intro? Its amazing❤

[@iamaerix]

Very well played first game.

[@scienceguy1165]

At 21:05, could you not have waited until memory deluge was on the stack to grab sheolderd with realmbreaker?

[@Silent_Pyro]

you had me on Mono Black

[@thorgrimr9093]

Nice deck. Black has so much sustain.

[@darken8649]

Oh hey CGB, I was just wondering, what are your thoughts on urborg scavengers from the new aftermath set? I've been running it instead of trespasser and even built an orzhov prototype deck around it, turns out giving it flying, double strike, menace and life gain is a win con in its own right. It just happens to be a meta slasher!

[@WettworkerOfficial]

Playing a round right now. Without flying, my Obliterator is preventing them from doing anything.

[@WettworkerOfficial]

And literally the next round some dude just discarded a bunch of Atraxas using Faithful Mending and got his Scavengers to beat the everliving shit out of me.

[@OldmanSerious]

First game, start with a four land hand. Draw Swamp, Swamp, Invoke, Swamp, Swamp, Swamp, Swamp, Swamp, Bankbuster, Duress. Two bankbusters, every card off both was a swamp.

[@LitAnimeEdits]

I gotta say man this one was the funniest video out of all them. 👍

[@KodasGarden]

Oh I love BBC (Big Black Cards)!

[@Geodude_476]

Then you'll def love CGB's Bigger Blacker Deck!

Not playing celestus game 1 drove me CRAZY

After watching you sac realmbreaker, seems you should add 1 of the other Sheoldred

Hey CGB can you do a Boros control again, been playing mine and it slams.

[@Perceptious37]

nice big black deck you got there 😳

[@monkaeyes3417]

So I'm not good at deck building, can someone tell me why when playing mono-black, is phyrexian obliterator not used in this deck? to me it seems like a 4 mana must remove card and therefore quite good.

[@_____kb]

I think the reason is that Sheoldred is just better in that spot.

You missed the chance to play celustus in game 1. You had 3 mana open and a cut down. Play celestus with 3 mana, then it makes 1 mana for cut down.

Cgb nice video as always. But it kinda seems like ur not ur usual peppy self... I can see that I'm not the only one these atraxxa ramp, rakdos, grixis, soldiers, mono Red, mono white has taken it's tole on... The meta I just ad bad if not much much worst than alrunds meta it disgusts to see the ranked ladder I don't know how wotc thought 3 years rotation for arena was a good idea, I don't know why they refuse to treat arena as its own entity from paper.... And the sad thing is they will have to separate arena from paper eventually they just being stupid and refuse to do so or maybe they just trying to get more money before they do I don't know but they should have had the banlist ready the moment they decided 3 years was a thing for arena.. And I hope they don't do some stupid shit like only banning fable like it's the only problem in this garbage same card same deck meta
