[@harrybum]

Yooo the cards revealing themselves as they are discussed in the intro is sick, very visually engaging Editing W

[@MagicAids]

I'm glad you like it! I don't know if you noticed, but the rotating color symbols freeze when white is at the top, and it's making me pregnant! 🤯

[@XaneleontheMountainGoat]

@@MagicAids Manually overlay your own animation on each card just so you can spend an extra 2 hours on the intro editing 😶‍🌫

[@josec4087]

but it gets even better!!

[@bartoffer]

@@MagicAids If you trim the last few frames of the animation and then copy-paste it, you could probably remove that stop. It might take a bit to find the right frame to cut at such that it doesn't look jittery, but as soon as you've found it, you could export that specific duration of the animation as its own clip and forever-forward just drag forward.

[@jaydub5515]

I did not notice that first watch. Good shit man!​@@MagicAids

[@benpouy3345]

I’m glad that Abhorrent Occulus didn’t end up like the failure that was Skaab Ruinator

[@hanstler4198]

I play Skaab in my dredge deck with Unearth

[@alexmandella7418]

hey that card was okay to pod into

[@Babyboots1]

I think it will, but it's worth trying out for now.

[@Kryptnyt]

Occulus makes Skaab better, trust me. Collected company deck, trust me.

[@Babyboots1]

@@Kryptnyt interesting

[@chrishaley42]

"Maybe they are in a gang" with ablood token is the most subtle joke ever on this channel. And there are dozens lol 😅

[@Brettbowden26]

Using the mana colors on the backs of the cards as little loading circles before revealing them in the intro was *chef's kiss*

[@MrPetterPaker]

This deck has real potential. I hope we see more of it!

[@MagicAids]

It is pretty gangstar! Graveyard decks always have trouble with consistency, but this just might be explosive enough to offset the variance!

[@squee147]

Definitely want to see v2 once it's been tuned a bit

[@kerey6429]

Yes!! More of this deck!!!

[@evandunning1991]

Satoru is so cool with recent mechanics like cloak and manifest dread.

[@MagicAids]

That it is! It's legal in standard, so we'll have to see if anything COMES of it!

[@FloydMcRyan7]

Loved the new intro style where you reveal the cards bit by bit. Great touch, very engaging. Keep the ball(sack) rolling!

[@jocas94]

Watching abhorrent oculus in action is pretty cool and easier than people thought. Also, that last deck had something neat going on with those flare, bloodghast and suppliers

[@a.ryanratliff4024]

Awesome visuals with the cards revealing themselves as you went over the deck! Great job!

[@Konoscuba]

Deck seems really good! You are single handedly the reason I even keep up with modern. Love your videos!

[@mcd9468]

Love that screet cards revelating themselves as you keep talking about tour deck, nice touch as always Daddy!

[@pollifpj]

I love the new intro, makes tracking the cards and understanding the deck construction so much easier. Very clean design choice!

[@pascalrieder9720]

wow this deck has so much going on, absolutely love the cards you put in there!

[@josec4087]

I've been watching your videos for years and they never fail to bring a smile to my face! Thanks daddy!

[@jonathandrummel6075]

The buffering with the spinning colors on the cards was muah! Chefs kiss. 👨‍🍳💋❤️

[@WanHooProductions]

I dig the unveiling of the cards during the deck tech. Nice touch.

[@extrapylon]

Love to see you constantly innovating new decks, always makes my day to see daddy making a new upload

[@DiabloSpawnVII]

Sweet deck tech, I really like the ballsack and the manifest dread mechanic in general!

[@electronegative6617]

Thanks for another great video! Incredible brew, as always!

[@joaopedroalmeidacaetano1619]

I love that galf the time I don't know what's happening in Daddy's games, but I do know that I love watching them

[@Villain.van.Bobbov]

The gradual reveal of the cards in the deck tech is a nice touch 👍

[@Red-Tower]

I knew the ballsack had real potential. So many ways to cheat around the exile 6 cost, but even if you can't, there are so many ways to fill your graveyard early. I'm definitely looking forward to a version 2 of this deck. Vial does feel like it might just be too slow, since you pretty much always want it on 2 or 3, so not having it turn 1 makes it so much worse.

[@dutt6222]

Unearth the ballsack is a really strong play. I agree about Aether Vial. Definitely seemed like the weakest card.

[@evildracko]

love the new ways you show your deck. in other words. i love your deck pics.

[@storeblaa]

Been tinkering with something quite similar honestly happy to see you play it too!

[@wpmer]

Your nicknames for cards are always TOP TIER

[@KVWI]

I was blown away when I saw the eye for the first time, I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Makes sense that this deck would be good, but I like that it's at least a synergy pile, feels like an elegant build even if the individual cards are also completely nuts

[@falkm]

Man I love these creative deck building takes!

[@lolzicus6880]

The loading symbol magic cards are peak deck tech editing, please continue doing this

[@lukeferrante5279]

This card is just so outrageously good. It feeds more versions of itself and gets you value if it goes back to the opponents turn, super impressed with birthing ritual

[@bedwablackburn]

Eye see you went with the flying ballsac... Heavy choice.

[@BloodyLifetime]

I've watched you since before you had to become the magic rainbow all those years ago, and I still enjoy every video you post. The edge has become sooooo much more subtle over the years, making it blend better into the vids instead of the jokes standing out like a sore thumb. It feels like its been forever since then. Keep up the fantastic vids, I won't be getting tired of my fix for funny, yet skillful mtg content anytime soon

[@MagicAids]

Thanks for sticking around through it all!

[@BloodyLifetime]

@@MagicAids Thank you for magic fun MTG content over the last 5/6 years or so.

[@ThePretzelBread]

I opened an Abhorrent Oculus in prerelease and it instantly became one of my favorite cards in recent years. It's just so fun.

[@clon1122]

Notifications working well 🎉

[@SuperMiracleMan]

Absolutely loved this deck. Unearth style reanimator is always a favorite of mine.

[@Mr.Floppy777]

Love the idea of revealing the cards when you discuss them ❤

[@jebustchrist4054]

this is a sick build.

[@MagicAids]

This is a *SACK* BUILD!

[@jebustchrist4054]

lol . a bit more spot removal for me. but 1000% this. so many play lines.

[@PQTVevo]

Watching your content is such a treat. The the thing that kills me most is how casual some super out of pocket things are said

[@1423big]

I also wanted to reiterate that revealing the cards as you spoke of them in the intro was helpful. Thanks!

[@ForeverLaxx]

Daddy's got his big eye on you.

[@ragekage5656]

This deck looks like it could be something! Great video

[@zachmerrill]

The rotating color pie on the back at the beginning was so cool

[@SaggiDarkClownlike]

Occulus looked really good so it was cool to see it pop off so well.

I just realized the spinning Magic circles on the back of the cards. Nice editing.

Oh shoot! I can't believe we were brewing similar decks at the same time! I'm rolling in Dimir and giving Likeness Looter a try!

[@chriscampbell6922]

I love flying ballsacks! What a great deck :)

[@funkydiscogod]

You know what card works crazy well with Manifest? Repeal XU Instant Return target nonland permanent with mana value X to its owner's hand. Draw a card. That way, you can put noncreature stuff on the battlefield face down, and pull it back to hand to cast it when you no longer need it as a 2/2.

[@DrMonty-ng5fo]

That's...a really terrible synergy? For 1 mana, you're drawing 2 cards, at the cost of losing a creature. You could do the same with village rites, but village rites also works well with bloodghast/stitcher's supplier. The strength of Manifest is making a 2/2. It's generally not worth it to try to turn that 2/2 into something else.

[@enzomijares9769]

It can be an easy way of saving a creature from a board wipe. Niche but still notable

[@DrMonty-ng5fo]

@@enzomijares9769 It doesn't "save" the creature though. You still have to recast it.

[@enzomijares9769]

@@DrMonty-ng5fo unless it's a spell he's saving with it which he can use? Idk, not totally unplayable

[@camerongct]

Duskmourn is a fun set so far. Love the avatars as well.

[@Vaasth]

nice to see satoru again, love that card

[@yaung2723]

I thought the eye was pretty bad, but with reanimate, it's really good. Great video man.

[@funkydiscogod]

Back when Fate Reforged came out, I had a deck that used the Manifest mechanic to try to put Eater of Days on the battlefield face down, then turn it face up for 4 mana to bypass its horrifying ETB drawback. Jace the Mind Sculptor was great for making that happen. It would pair well with Abhorrent Oculus, to allow you to put an Abhorrent Oculus from your hand on top of your library, and Manifest it with another Oculus to get around its prohibitive casting cost.

[@TheKauzdoctor]

Seems really interesting. Daddy always has the spiciest brews.

[@jhalem1262]

This was a solid deck, eye see what you did there!

[@Yanley]

MagicAids confirmed the reason Ballsack's rising in price now XD

[@arran2264]

I would love to see another video on this developing the list further. Birthing Ritual and Oculus seem super good together.

[@christopherthokar8697]

very fun editing in the deck tech.

[@MagicAids]

I'm glad you liked it! I thought it would save time compared to the usual intros that take 2+ hours to edit... oopsie poopsies cuz this video took 7 hours to edit!

"One of his eyes resembled that of vulture - a pale blue eye, with a film over it."

[@CalebRogers808]

Maybe it's worth cutting the subtlety and the aether vials, and trying for a more explosive start with a vengevine package? Several of the cards in this deck overlap with it.

[@elliotyamamoto38]

💯 agree!!

[@ssglitchers]

Oooh that deck was better than I thought it could be, just built a deck with the sack in Standard and its great but this looks really good actually.

[@yegor6150]

Love to see your wilds ideas

[@TransformersBoss]

1:54 one of the nice things about Manifest Dread is that your opponent is incentivized to block, since he doesn’t know what kind of horrible nonsense you’ve got as a face-down 2/2. Better to be safe and kill it. Doh! It’s a land!

[@MTGThings]

"Crab check" that killed me.
