everytime I see Uro in one of these drafts it always does a ton of work, on top of having a lot of cool little synergies like the Dress Down one. in my eyes it's an underappreciated card that should get picked earlier on average

[@bumpasaurus487]

True, I think it’s even on par with the Mox he took. I bet some decks would prefer it, especially in a green deck with lots of one drop acceleration already. *Oops, I read your comment as oko. But I agree also with uro, it does seem to be great in decks that are able to cast it.

[@dementievatz]

I think the main reason for it not to be drafted higher is the strict mana cost.

[@zacharyenglish2904]

@@bumpasaurus487 the issue with that tho is in a team draft, you can’t pass a mox like that, because the person you’re passing to *can* use it

[@matthewlarson9162]

“Here im gonna double block mana vault.” Just fun cube interactions leading to things we never thought we would ever here someone say😅

[@nickk6556]

9:24 It's probably a good time to cut Ashen Rider from the cube if it's (rightly) not even a consideration here with 4 cards left in the pack while drafting a flash deck. I think Damn and Vanishing Verse are both more flexible if you're looking for a replacement!

[@pqnet84]

ashen rider flash is still kind of a 2 for 2

[@TheValiantFox]

The daily uploads really became a staple in my daily routine. Come home, make some food, put on the daily cube draft and relax ❤

[@whynotlin7998]

Wow, 1 piece of power on your 4 player team. Even my dog said that was rough

[@brianh5844]

I'm surprised you didn't go for the double block at the end of match 1. It's not actually conceding the game because you have Teferi as an out. Your opponent is incentivized to go for removal with DT, which means they might not have a Counterspell. The single block seems a lot less likely to work than simply hoping to topdeck Teferi, which takes care of Colossus and redraws.

[@sloppyjalope3331]

Lsv to start my rainy day. PERFECT

[@pqnet84]

2:20 memory jar is a draw 7 at instant speed that cost no mana, which allows you to do stuff such as flash, crack jar in response, let flash resolve and use a creature from your new 7 card hand to flash in. Since you most likely have more than one of these, you have a good chance to roll one in the next 7 cards (in particular if you didn't have any in your previous hand)

[@mattwecrazy3236]

Finally! Been waiting forever!! 😂 This is one of the only drafts a would disagree with the master. I would have gone full broken, more big dudes, sneak, recurring nightmare them back, tracker/reclaimer/crop rotation, etc. I'm sure in a team draft you want to go for consistency, but go big baby!!

[@imroguebait1]

Really enjoying these cube videos.

[@bumpasaurus487]

I woulda taken that prismatic ending in that late pick when you took deathrite shaman. It’s a really good answer in your 4 color deck that easiy reaches 5 colors with Mox Diamond, caryatid, lotus cobra, etc.

[@champneys711]

Love vintage-keep er coming! I hope the family is well!

[@msiggerudjr]

You inspired me to build my vintage cube LSV! You've also heavily inspired my blue based blue draft style :) Thank you

[@jaidenblom6668]

I’ve also built my first cube Inspired by lsv! My man is a legend 😂

[@julianbaxandall9338]

Hahaha thought I was original same here!🥂

[@roarmalf]

@18:48 did you play Undermountain Adventurer first because you didn't want them to block the Hexdrinker? My thought was to attack first since there's a decent chance they trade.

[@Vorrinn]

I was thinking something similar, seemed right to attack first rather than informing them ahead of time about the initiative.

[@bumpasaurus487]

Definitely, he offered the trade after, so he def wanted it. Should have attacked first.

[@settogvoid9407]

Would have like to see sharp eyed rookie being played ( pick at 3:53) to see if it's any good ine the cube. I think it could have been good in this deck, Flashing in a Woodfall primus would trigger it twice for example

[@PhakeJake]

13:46 I wouldn't normally consider Crafterhoof for this kind of deck, but could it be right here? I suppose if you have threats in play with this deck you're already winning, but with your dorks you could cast it if need be, but it could also work with flash.

[@hamishfox]

Gotta love any deck that plays plow under

[@sabeypls4393]

After they spellbinder Questing Beast and them sitting on just mana rocks + Dark Depths and missing land drops, would leveling Hexdrinker instead of playing Undermountain be better? We deny initiative to help them fetch a land and make their mana more painful.

[@bumpasaurus487]

Why not play grist? U had ignoble, caryatid, lotus cobra, mox Diamond, and that’s without adding your black dual or counting incidental black from things like treasures (bank buster), or initiative (if u played a basic swamp)

[@deggdegg2005]

Game 2 of the first match vs. a goaded 3/3 Karn token, shouldn't you not give them the extra artifact when you have a 3/4 blocker?

only 1 more day for vintage cube TO BE BACK ON MTGO

[@sylvancarotid3717]

Whenever you say "let's see" are you doing the shades from Warcraft III? Because that's what I'm hearing.

Really sick deck this time!

[@cowgirlqueen2636]

Maybe I’m just bad at magic but I have the most success in vintage cube with white and red aggro decks

[@cowgirlqueen2636]

Also so ok With tempo decks in Jeskai and grixis. Some success with reanimator. Lose a lot in green

[@Cthuski]

The aggro decks tend to be the most successful. When they come together they are fast and consistent and they are good at fun-policing the nonsense that some people often try to get away with

[@cowgirlqueen2636]

@@Cthuski I really suck at putting together the combo decks lol

[@Sidnv]

@@cowgirlqueen2636 White is also generally somewhat underdrafted on MTGO so playing white aggro of any form tends to do well. In these team drafts, you see boros aggro do well but not in an outlier way, because people pickup the strong red and white cards or hate draft them.
