Hi Seth! I was your opponent playing the dragon deck! I just want to let you know that at 30:10 you mention if you discard Junji then I wouldn't get the death trigger if I chose to reanimate him. that's not true as the exile effect from Rivaz happens after Junji dies, it's not a replacement effect. Rivaz works really well with all the death trigger dragons. Thanks for the game!

[@ShakeItLittleTina]

I loved what I saw of your deck, may I ask you for a decklist so I can try it out too?

d00mwake has been very high on a Proft's Eidetic Memory deck like this in Standard recently. 1:02:23 An interesting option I learned about recently via a Jim Davis video is running some copies of Deduce. Cracking a Clue turns on Revolt for Fatal Push, and otherwise it's just a Think Twice which is perfect for this sort of deck.

[@ther3aper561]

I dont think this was the worst but it was pretty far up there. Just repeating the exact same mistake over and over and over...when he knows the correct word! If this is just on purpose for engagement, I wish he wouldnt do it because it legitimately makes it hard to watch like a "nails on chalkboard" thing

[@dougmcquiaidsgreatesthits8867]

Every time I hear the namesake card of this deck my brain goes to TCC's Prof. Chuckled a bit throughout the video due to it.

[@MrKhorn]

I actually had a draft where I had Proft's Eidetic Memory and 3 Steamcore Scholar. I went 7-x with it and it was AMAZING. I haven't watched the whole video yet, but I can't wait to see where this is going!

With all the card draw, I’m surprised this wasn’t a Seth brew. Infamous small Japanese tournament ftw!

[@1eel99]

Thanks for giving me more ideas for my queza augur of agonies commander deck. Never thought this day would come

[@ReyosBlackwood]

Is Seth one of those people who pronounce cards wrong because it makes people comment? Proft's memory isn't the Spymaster of Trest, Seth.

[@teaganrichichi]

He's been doing that since before the trend, I'm pretty sure it's become a meme for his more consistent viewers Edit: it's a meme ----> it's become a meme

[@ben668]

Been waiting for this since I voted on the first pauper deck. You made my day.

[@reaganl.607]

this deck looked so fun i re-installed arena to build and play it. after a year of not playing, i had like 30 packs and used all my mythics and rares for 4x proft, 4x steamcore scholar, 2x sheoldred, and a few lands. i also adapted the deck for standard, as standard is a little more appealing to me than pioneer. honestly, the deck slaps! i didn't have enough rares for ledger shredder, so i went with 2x sheoldred and 2x snarling gorehound in the mainboard instead. standard also doesn't have treasure cruise, so i went with 4x thirst for discoveries instead, which worked out because my mana base was so budget (definitely lost a few games due to color screw). sheoldred also felt really really good in the mainboard, you get so much value out of drawing cards already, and gaining absurd amounts of life helped me stabilize against aggro on multiple occasions and come from behind for a win. after getting run over by mono red/go wide aggro, i also included 2x deep-cavern bats in the mainboard for hand disruption and as another evasive creature that has the upside of gaining life in the early game to help stay alive until the engine is running. also included this little, off-the-wall sweeper called malicious eclipse, which won me the game on many occasions and helped facing mono-red and weenie soldiers on the play more winnable--it often was a one-sided wipe against go wide decks. i struggle a lot against the new deck with insidious roots because i don't have access to good enchantment removal/no mainboard wipes (not enough rares for a good one). however, within less than a week of playing, i just hit platinum! the deck is so fun! archidekt.com/decks/7243783/proft

[@spoopyboi1882]

btw they'll still get the death trigger if junji dies after reanimating it with Rivaz. Cause Rivaz adds "when they die, exile it" not "if it would die, exile it instead"

[@CDShap]

Yes, but if they cast it from hand then reanimate it later they get the trigger twice.

[@kadehaviland3920]

This is a pretty sweet deck! Something like couple of “ominous seas” might be a fun addition to the deck as extra payoffs for drawing so much since you only have 4 copies of “Proft's Eidetic Memory.”

[@matthewtullis7205]

I have this with tef, timeless pilgram and the artifact construct from Neon Genisis that lets you play discarded spells. so much fun!

[@lukeerlewein7473]

Thank goodness this card is seeing some play. I got 3 of this in my MKM prerelease kit.

[@Kasigi03]

Behold the Unspeakable is an underestimated card. Sure, hard casting cost but get it to flip in a card draw deck, BIG OL' FLYING TRAMPLER.

[@tlblitz42]

One of my MKM drafts landed me with Steamcore + Memory. I’ve been a fan of the interaction ever since

[@miguelfreitas5343]

Pretty sure the opponent on Match 2 used Rimrock Knight at sorcery speed so that the Picnic ruiner would get double strike with the attack trigger :p They need the extra pump to reach 4 power

Heads up for the person who does the deck tech title card thing-y - you might want to have a back-up font for the player name when it comes from A Small Japanese Tournament, because the font you normally use doesn't support kanji. Still... cute deck. I like it.

[@cjfeinberg7613]

Match 2, picnic ruiner only has double strike if you have a high power creature when it attacks, incentivizing precombat Rimrocks.

[@zigzag2370]

So i been runing this enchantment in illuminator virtuoso decks and you need inspired idea if youre playing standard bc of the enchantment static ability of having no max handsize means you dont care about the cleave portion of the inapired idea saying your max hand size being reduced by 3..... Virtuoso really really pushes how far memory can go especially with the spell that youre using to target it should be blessed defiance granting you 2npower and lifelink then if you discarded a nonland card 1 power from connive and then 1 power from memeory (5 power lifelink doublestrike) and then things get really spicy when youre able to cast more than one spell especially with ledger shredder in play ive considered adding red to get haste from angel fire ignition or felonious rage.... Bit i havent gotten that far yet..... Inspired idea is a 3 mana treasure cruise with edetic memory in play

[@xLegendaryPete]

Perhaps we can get a standard version? 🤔

[@sireklz1169]

I've been loving Proft's I sent you a grixis version with Fable in it and it's sweet. Why not play the best cards in the format all in one deck. Treasure Cruise, Thoughtseize, and Fable, yes please. Great video

[@curtist6022]

I would watch several more hours of this deck do its thing

[@charleswable3339]

the 4 cmc ward kraken that makes unblockable fish and the 3 cmc 6/4 from kamigawa would go hard in this

[@jdonvance]

I don't understand why this deck even has black in it. Sure, Thoughtseize is nice and spot removal is usually helpful, but a suite of counterspells could have kept all those huge threats off the table in the first place. The only card that plays into the theme and requires black is Evangel of Synthesis, but you can't tell me there's not a 2 mana blue creature that could replace it.

[@TostonDePana]

I made a prof deck but use cost reduction like djinn and mocking sprite + 3 mana drawncards. Mono blue. Guaranteed to finish your blue spell daily in minutes.

[@redbeardmtg5788]

Seth talking about what it would be like to have more than one memory on the field at once has me thinking. Can't you make non-legendary token copies of enchantments in Bant in historic?
