I guess it will still be hard to protect NF-Keene but the ward 9 life definetly stands out.

[@mtgburgeoning3205]

That's a BIG payment!

[@edenheng95]

Love gates!

[@mtgburgeoning3205]

Me too! EDH Gates FTW!

This is a super cool, and I was wondering how possible it would be to win with a Maze's End finisher. Normally I would say it would be impossible in a 3 color deck, but with CL: Baldur's Gate, and this card being in Green, it becomes very viable (even if just for the memes or lolz). I know the majority (or good chunk of anyways) of the base for this deck is in this video, and now I want to build it, just because it seems super fun for sure. Some cards that come to mind when it comes to this deck and if the game plan to get to Maze's End is the plan - I totally agree with Exploration, also feel something like Wayward Swordtooth should be a option. Ulvenwald Hydra gets you a land when it comes into play, Beanstalk Giant could be a good biggen. This deck looks like it would be a blast, and actually excited, if nothing else I need to try to get my hands on Keene, before it goes up. Great video as always and see you for the next one. #Roadto500

100% agree! Gates are now more viable than ever before. SPOILER: Gates are coming to the BCC...

I gotta see Ward in action. Still haven’t been able to wrap my mind around it.

[@mtgburgeoning3205]

It's basically hexproof unless the controller of the spell or ability pays the additional cost. For Keene, it's a whopping 9 life!

@@ericr4677 Sooooo much life!

[@mynameisnobody8639]

Have not even built any deck whatsoever since Crimson Vow. Most cards since then were unpacked , sleeved and put back in the box! All just going WAY too fast. Maybe next X-mas? Have a fine one. 🤘🐸🤘

[@mtgburgeoning3205]

You're right about that. There's definitely no more "stop and smell the cards" moments these days....

[@tedhr392]

gota close the gate

[@mtgburgeoning3205]

Haha! Nice.

[@zeffyr5135]

That Ward cost is too high in my opinion.

[@mtgburgeoning3205]

It should keep her on the battlefield....
