My Angels Deck Was Amazing And So Were These Games | Foundations Draft | MTG Arena

[@DavidZee85]

I've mentioned this before, but it bears repeating-I'm really glad you're making draft videos again. Your content is amazing and I always make the time to watch them.

[@haumph]

thanks for watching!

[@rohanport7673]

Hi Paul! I was the blue/red player from game 2! I'm pretty new to magic and just started playing in duskmourn, your videos have been super helpful at teaching me how to draft/play. I was so excited to get matched up against you 😁 Thanks for all the great content!

[@andrewx8888]

New player and already in plat, going strong, good work

[@inkjorbas]

Paul❤ Loving the drafts, the enthusiasm and your love for this beautiful game, obviously as strong as it ever was. Glad you are back streaming and tubing.

[@haumph]

TY so much!

[@michaelduha]

Man your sequencing is so good. I learn so much from your gameplay. I am sure I would have lost 3 of those games with that deck.

[@haumph]

TY!

[@worschtebrot]

Damn, what a run! Nice deck, well played.

[@stringdoll50]

Enjoyed the video, the way you approach the draft is logical and I was also having similar choice as well. Great game 1 with analysis.

[@haumph]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@KingDupue]

Thanks for continuing to put these out. By far my favorite magic content on KZbin. I look forward to your uploads everyday. I only play limited, so your channel is perfect for me. ***Edit You should rename the video to "My Squad Rallier and Spectral Sailor Deck was Amazing!" cause those were the MVP's of this video. So much card draw. Your opponents had to burn so much removal on the sailors.

[@haumph]

yeah they got me insane value for sure

[@rahsaanTV]

Incredible matches. Great work as usual. Love seeing a great UW deck come together

[@alejandromarcos3419]

Congrats! Really good deck , perfect draft!

[@haumph]

it was a great draft

[@whynotqat]

Not that it mattered, but on the last turn you should have activated Squad Rallier before playing Kiora so that she filters.

[@jondorsey2043]

I especially appreciated the Blue-White Cheons mirror.

[@dylantwo9550]

Squad rallier doing some WORK!

[@haumph]

def!

[@patrickgonzales7825]

Wow, what a deck! I envy those 7th pick Dazzling Angels and 9th pick joust through. What a run. Beating that Rakdos player felt so great, lol. December qualifier weekend is limited, so I hope I can be in Top250 as well.

[@haumph]

gl!

[@dangregory-ys2li]

Really well played and squad rallier with the chad assist!

[@haumph]

for sure!

[@paragrog]

Game 6 against the Rakdos player was such a satisfying win. Nothing better than handing an L to a player who spams “Oops” every time they play a bomb.

[@haumph]

yes definitely!

[@BoB-ey5xr]

Awesome games man, great watch!

[@haumph]

Glad you enjoyed

[@blackfirexvii17]

Well played as always sir

[@zapender]

Squad Rallier OP!

[@nabazanwar6326]

You played your best games in this one. Very nice Paul 💪👍

[@haumph]

thanks!

[@YourAdHere4]

i’ve drafted kykar a lot, and I mostly ignore drafting around him. he’s an efficient flier and a removal magnet, so I just play him with the expectation that he’ll force removal either way. the triggers are gravy

[@Joshuralize]

Ralier is so good when you have alot of hits. 4 toughness is big in this format and the advantages you get with it late game is tremendous. Definitely had been an overperformer for me.

[@jondorsey2043]

Reinforcements off the refute loot was so sick. And he doesn't say a word. Just lets the audience take it in...

[@Kendal411]

Guess people haven’t watched your most recent limited resources episode yet because the best three colors were wideeee open this draft. Edit: squad rallier continues to impress. For some reason I thought it was cost 2 not power 2. So much better than I originally thought.

[@haumph]

yes super open!

[@JesGolbez]

"Yes, I would like to make an 8/8. Thanks for asking" - Well, what if you are allergic to seafood?

[@OfficialPizza]

Squad Rallier did its thing in my prerelease event and I put it in my peasant cube that same day

[@micah_raygun_]

I don't have the time or money for drafting/MTG, but it has been such a joy watching you pop off lately 💪💪💪

[@CG89119]

Can't help you with time but you can quick draft pretty regularly if you complete dailies.

[@micah_raygun_]

@CG89119 the dailies are themselves a time sink, but yeah that's basically my only shot if I want to play limited.

[@Anon-nt3xx]

Squad rallier is an absolute champ!

[@tomh6667]

88 and looking great! Just missing an Empyrean Eagle.

[@udhh2619]

That truly was a good game against red black

[@haumph]

yes it was!

[@carlpalacios]

This just goes to show us that mana sinks are king in this format, Rallier and spectral sailor OP ...

[@haumph]

definitely!

[@drzwellness]

Sweet, sweet run 👏

[@haumph]

Thanks! 👍

[@DiviTon]

Just finished the draft portion. This deck looks so good. This is the kind of deck that has to get at least 5 wins or I feel cheated.

[@DiviTon]

Dang, the games were even better. So many comebacks and good games.

[@haumph]

yeah the gaves were great!

[@kylewomack45]

Hey Paul. Love the drafts. Also appreciated the BO3 videos. I’m in for mixing it up.

[@haumph]

Glad you like them!

[@r.mar.673]

Went against that Fffreak guy the other day. I am in plat though. XD

[@AstralLiving]

Great run!

[@haumph]

TY!

[@jasonallison1913]

I love Angels!

[@TheFranchiseCA]

Squad Rallier is regularly underrated.

[@haumph]

agreed!

[@TheStupidForeigner]

That was great!

[@haumph]

definitely!

[@ericcourtaway8920]

Uw Cheons! Lets go!!!

[@vincenthampe2788]

Have been enjoying your content for years now. Even watched your stream back in the day. For learning purposes: pack 3 pick 4: I have found Uncharted Voyage to be pretty clunky, honestly not a high pick. Think Twice is better here, even given your set up at the time. Pack 3 pick 5 you picked the Rebuke over Big Fin Bouncer. Which makes sense because you did not pick the Think Twice and picked a 4 drop instead. But if you have 2 Rebukes already the Fin is probably still how you win, tempo over random Kykar value. Just my 2 cents.

[@haumph]

the picks were all pretty close. i don't think one if clearly better than the other

[@CorbyCrafts]

Lesgo draft time!

[@ag4rw4en92]

where can i check card performances for draft?

[@mangolemongrass7572]

I have huge problems with lands in this format. usually far too many or I don't add any. Doesn't it happen to others?

[@RepTuneRepeat]

There are far less mana sinks in FDN than a typical modern limited set. That's why the cards that loot are performing above expectations. Dreadwing Scavenger is the top uncommon in the entire set and has a 62% winrate.

[@mangolemongrass7572]

@RepTuneRepeat i dont need Mana sinks. Often i endedup with 9+ lands and my opponent is still by 5-6.

[@TMidander]

lots of back and forth in this one =)

[@haumph]

for sure!

[@youmatterandareloved5373]

I like the Emo hair look you've got going

[@haumph]

i just got outta the shower i think

[@biobossx99]

In pack two, could you have pivoted to WB? Also I think gold pick is really good in fliers, slight buff helps a lot when hitting in air

[@teusz16]

Still watching the draft portion but damn I wish you could re-do with the dreadwings, high-society hunter, and Kiora in Dimir 😢

[@haumph]

You will like the end result

[@teusz16]

Oh no I expected a great run regardless :) I just loved Dimir haha

[@Solgaix]

Hi Paul! I was wondering if it might be possible to upload videos in 1440p? I think it may help folks read the cards better

[@haumph]

OP

[@KVGMRadio]

Is Stroke of Midnight that bad? Trading their big bomb for a 1/1 seems good? I know you're just replacing it with another creature but a 1/1 is easier to deal with than a Ghalta.

[@adaml8827]

Yeh, it's bad. Giving a 1/1 makes it similar to witness protection except it's 3 mana. If it's all you've got, then sure play it, but otherwise it's not a great pick and certainly worse than other white options

[@anthonymartinez5498]

Three mana is the difference. It’s not good value compared to other removal with tempo. If you’re playing control, it’s fine.

[@Shizzle7111]

I think you're slightly undervaluing Claws Out in these type of white decks. Alot of games can come down to stalemates and turning your 1/1 cats and soldiers into potentially game winning threats has proven a solid strategy for me. I'm sitting top 300 Mythic right now, and Claws Out has been one of the cards I've found to just be way undervalued

[@haumph]

I’m not a big fan of

[@Ominyx]

GGs!

[@mcbescheiden725]

You have real Trust issues with the Auto Tapper by Always manual tapping 😂

[@haumph]

i do

[@mcbescheiden725]

@@haumph you could at least Hover the Card over the Board and See If the Auto Tapper would scree you Up. I found Out IT only screes you Up If IT doesnt have the full information in youre Hand.

[@rayswift5711]

Nice! Apparently you only needed to get out of your BU streak

[@haumph]

i guess so!

[@dominicnzl]

nice

[@Pidabred1]

I found Pup underwhelming, but you got the "hate"

[@tylerblalack6684]

26 bigfin bouncers, 16 lands, easy trophy lol. Hate that card. Youre not the only youtuber to say twanquil quove haha, love your videos man
