NEW Storm Deck Kills Turn 1 in Legacy! (Gameplay)

Don't be a coward harry

[@thedanktank8434]

Make a Treefolk deck when the Lord of the Rings is out.

[@joeyboldewijn2467]

Ah yes when u succesfully shut down the combo in a combo deck but then they have 12 power on turn 3 because a land for sone reason

[@franzvonhinten7558]

Yeah ursas Saga is so Trash why would you Print such a dumb "Land" and make It modern legal? Every saturday i Play against an Hammer time deck at my local Playstore. I Play some Kind of controll or Discard deck. And whenever i am Happy that i disabled His Hammer Combo He Kills me nearly everytime late Game with one or two Ursas saga's and some cheap artifact! This is so dumb and OP! Just one or two Lands can win on there own wow

Just wanted to express, love the channel. The proper post-game voice over commentary gives it a highly unique vibe and gives a lot of insight into why plays get made or the mechanics of more esoteric combos. I appreciate you.

[@TheCubicalGuy]

Using surge node on chalice was actually such a gigabrain move.

That’s literally what it’s in the sideboard for. It doesn’t do anything else for the deck

It was, but it was a Gigachad move to put in on 3 and lock the opponent out of further Archons

I love how Legacy games are either Turn 1 - 2 crazy combo kills, or Turn 12 'I bash you with mu 2/2' durdly wins

[@JohnFromAccounting]

Scrappy legacy is my favorite legacy.

[@williamw8590]

That's the problem with fast mana imo- you either have your fast mana early and do crazy stuff, or you topdeck all your fast mana late and you can't do anything lol

[@amphetamean66X]

Well they are till you play against Force of Will decks and then it's really really slow.

Same way it was for the game as a whole between. 1993 and 1997...........

[@sebass4379]

Hey Harry, just wanted to say thanks for uploading this video. I never really looked at any legacy content before but after seeing this video, I went down the rabbit hole of various storm decks and am now having a blast playing it on MTGO! So thank you for essentially introducing me to a whole new way to enjoy Magic!

[@nxsmotorsports]

Pretty cool trick with surge node on the chalice. Learned something new!

[@LeevashanReddi]

This is Black saga storm by Toni. Give the man some credit! Also not a new deck. Variant of ANT and can easily turn 1 kill!!! Love this thing!

[@TearyHumor]

Yeah, was going to say like the content but the deck is not new!

[@E-mol]

Hey man, would be real cool if you made a modern fungus tribal deck!

[@zeraltheyodine8492]

I've never seen your content, but this was fun to watch. Snappy and well-edited, and enough of an explanation that I could follow without having to watch every second of gameplay. Keep it up.

[@ChewyMorales13]

Not gonna lie, i hardly play magic anymore or watch much content, the occasional magic video but whenever you upload i always jump on it Asap Good stuff man, keep it up, Favorite magic youtuber right now

[@Figgy20000]

I discard my entire hand to cast Ad Nauseum!!!! Opponent: "Force of will" Oops. I love how that's the one game he didn't show because it just hard counters his entire deck.

[@O-S-B]

this deck play 9-10 discard spell for a reason, so unless you have no choice you never combo on the blind.

[@ILostMyOreos]

Love your vids and enthusiasm. Commentary energy is perfect

[@Nopiyoutube]

Modern fungus when?

[@mistysowards7365]

Love this deck. I went all in and ordered final 2 LEDs for it. Already had everything else. So good, straight mono black though. No burning wish for me. I'll keep experimenting w jank old-school cards nobody has ever thought about using. Really fun deck.

[@cyruslyday9112]

The newest deck from 2010. Great production value video

[@TonyScapone]

For those saying it isn't new: I originally named it Black Turbo ANT but the ANT community unanimously voted me down. Black Saga Storm was voted in. I try to leave naming to the community. Also...Sol Lands, Urza's Saga, 4x Mox Opal, 10 discard spells, 8x Baubles, 2x Chrome Mox, 0 Past in Flames.. 99% Mono Black...you might see why the ANT community didn't approve of the name. Deck is probly a little over a year old now.

[@jamiebruner8463]

The only channel that I LIKE watching mtg play on.

[@calebross8174]

How do they play Arcon turn one after playing a chalice and plains? 5:16

[@thomasbrauer5538]

I’m guessing he cast and sacked a black lotus that got cut from the video for time reasons? Or maybe 2 lotus petals / some other form of fast mana. Notice he keeps a 6 card hand but only has 1 at the end of the turn.

[@Wesleyy13337]

If you look closely you see 2 red mana appear floating before the Archon is cast. Meaning they pitched 2 SSG for the mana.

[@OGNoNameNobody]

Man. I still remember when *Lion's Eye* was a 50 cent junk rare. Those were the days....

[@ArtisticTomahawk]

I guess I know what my Legacy deck is going to be! Mono Black Storm in Legacy :D I've got Mono Black Coffers for Modern and Mono Black Midrange for Pioneer

[@hiimemily]

Surge Node is the coolest piece of anti-Chalice tech I've ever seen.

[@512TexasRed]

ANT Storm has been a thing for a long time.

[@bertrambauer7357]

yeah, how is this new?

[@JohnFromAccounting]

It hasn't been used in the mono black artifact shell.

[@traycarrot]

Surge Node is the most hilarious sideboard card I've ever seen 😂

[@JavierMartinez-sy1qp]

Super cool deck, and you do the videos so easy to whatch

[@sonsysy4195]

6:22 I would've put the charge counter on the chalice with 1 charge counter first so I can cast Fatal Push on the Archon

[@bloobybot1512]

That's cool.

[@amphetamean66X]

This was awesome!!! I wonder how it does against Blue decks with counters.

[@swwordman]

I played an ancestor of this deck twenty years ago. You need cheap discard spells (duress at the time) to protect yourself from counters.

[@woekie3]

wait, at 5:15, how did the opponent play an archon with only one land in play on turn 1?!

[@sylvanfranklin]

yeah what???

[@Matthill121]

Probably 2 simian spirit guide exiles. They add 2 red before tapping the plains for a white and casting archon

[@sorin_markov]

So what does this deck do against a control deck with countermagic? Hope to either thoughtseize on the turn of the combo (to make sure shields are down) or Urza's Saga win? That just seems like a bad matchup to me, someone who's never played Legacy and so doesn't really know what he's talking about

[@KumanoMTG]

Counterspell decks usually don't have any stax pieces, so a couple of discard spells will usually do the trick. UR Delver used to be one of the easiest matchups for the storm decks.

[@sorin_markov]

@@KumanoMTG How many discard spells do you need to run maindeck for that to be a favorable trade? It seems like it'd be 8 at the lowest

[@KumanoMTG]

@@sorin_markov You also have a bunch of tutors and other storm decks run cards like Veil of Summer, Silence or Defense Grid

[@danlorett2184]

You have 9 maindeck discards, a load of tutors and Urza's Saga.

[@haveaboavida]

generally in legacy countermagic doesn't beat combo but rather lockpieces or delver do. it varies a bit, some combo decks have good delver matchups and some have good prison matchups but most of them have good control matchups(some exceptions, storm decks aren't that good vs blue zenith because of consistent access to collector ouphe and - to a lesser extent - leovold). all combo decks are built with force of will in mind, this deck for example has a billion discard spells and urza's saga, show and tell variants have access to their own forces and any combination of daze/veil of summer/pyroblast/flusterstorm/boseiju who shelters all/defense grid in the main or side, doomsday has discard spells and counter magic of their own, etc

Just out of curiosity: You always say that ¾ aren't subscribed (like me), but we are still regularly watching your videos. Why should I subscribe if I can watch it anyways? If you have a convincing argument as to why I should subscribe, I will! :D

[@pleasestopdisassemblingmylimbs]

Why should you not subscribe if you watch regularly anyways? You even get notified of every new video

[@archerjagv2993]

more subscribers mean better acknoledgement from the youtube algorithm and potential partners for sponsorshi ps.

[@shorty1815]

​@@pleasestopdisassemblingmylimbs 1. I will not stop disassembling your limbs. It's fun and frankly - you might deserve it :D 2. Makes sense. I won't get notified, tho. I hate notifications :D

[@sorin_markov]

Because if you're subscribed you can just go to the subscriptions page and see which videos have been uploaded. It doesn't have to be a notification, but it's an easier and more reliable way to know when a video has been uploaded than either checking his page every few hours or waiting for the YT algorithm to recommend the right video. Also, Harry is putting out a free thing that you're enjoying. It is still free and requires very little effort for you to subscribe, which helps him out in turn at very little cost to you. It's just common courtesy. You have an opportunity to help someone out for basically nothing when they're spending several hours a day providing a service you use.

[@danlorett2184]

Do you want him to succeed and keep producing more videos for you to watch?

[@bobmahannah905]

Great video as always, not much to be said that cant be, however, at some points you were stuck waiting to handle chalice on 0/1/2 with a burning wish in hand, why not get meltdown or something from the sideboard to deal? Thanks harry!

[@HarryMTG]

As burning wish is a 1 of there are only combo pieces in the sideboard!

[@ewokxz1]

@5:06 how da heck was that a turn 1 Archon? You really love Storm and these 2 cards dontcha? LED, Urzas Saga,

[@JeguePerneta]

Damn, this deck is sick

[@zarathos888]

I know its annoying to hear people moan about busted cards but urza's saga really is a problem. The fact that it can fetch any hate piece fast mana you want put into play and create an army all by itself really shows how much of a one card win con it actually is. I cant believe this card is still legal in modern.

[@Magidex]

It takes THREE full turns to do so.

[@zarathos888]

@@Magidex Its also attached to one of the least interactable card types in magic. Theres a million and one varied ways to remove creatures, enchantments, exile graveyards that also furthers your own gameplan. Elspeth conquers death for example. But lands have no mana cost to play and are exempt from a lot of the best removal spells in the game. Typical hate pieces for the lands specifically only affect lands and are incredibly mana inefficient which makes them incredibly hard to answer.

[@lessercrow]

Cool video but how exactly is this a new deck? Pretty sure this exact strategy has been tier for several years

[@Johufff]

Can we get a Magda brazen out law deck

[@BunnyWhole]

hey harry, great deck. although when you said "lets look at a turn one kill" and proceeded to pass the turn, i was a bit confused. i feel like if you're going to announce a turn 1 kill. it should probably be in the same game as you're playing, and not the next round.

Aren't TES or ANT already able to get a turn 1 win?

[@JohnFromAccounting]

Black storm is a great addition to legacy.

[@bertrambauer7357]

Is this actually a new deck?

[@barkerm9]

This is a perfect example of why I think urza’s saga will be banned eventually. It’s a colorless tutor, which is always potentially a problem, that works too well with all of the cheap artifacts in legacy. Sure, wasteland is an answer but it’s only a matter of time before every deck will be playing either saga, wasteland or both.

[@Coco-pl9rj]

my favorite win in modern is infect :)

[@Badname2011]

if a deck doesnt first turn kill. its not legacy.

[@Grumpollion]

NEW. Well, as of 20 years ago, that is.

[@aeolus7762]

...ANT is a NEW storm deck?

[@haveaboavida]

this deck isn't ANT just because it has ad naus and tendrils. for one when it comes to engines it doesn't run pif which is maybe the best engine in ANT, not even mentioning the presence of artifact mana like opal and chrome mox and lack of blue cantrips and cabal ritual

[@danlorett2184]

Chalice on one was a HUGE mistake. I guess he was getting greedy with his own moxes and whatnot. Chalice on zero is MUCH harder to combo thru, but it can be done.

[@MeowHoots]

Yah chalice check/ just still casting 0 drops help still build storm.

[@letsmakeit110]

There are only 3 decks in legacy. Murktide Regent, Urza's Saga, and Pox.

[@Asathon]

A new deck that has been around long before Urzas saga was printed. Yes, very much so, yes, very new, much wow... ANT is ANT, no matter how much you add stuff to it...

[@399pi]

There are so many iterations on Ad Nauseum storm decks now, such as classic Ad Nauseum Tendrils, The Epic Storm, and now Black Saga Storm (and I'm not even counting non-Ad Naus decks here like Ruby Storm). Just because two decks have cards in common, does not make them the same.

[@garridy2834]

@@399pi That is true, which is exactly his point. ANT is and has always been a deck that specifically is built to cast Ad Nauseum, using Infernal Tutor and Lion's Eye Diamond to support finding the wincon.The other decks you mention have different play patterns, and that is why they are called something else. Adding Saga to storm is not exactly a new concept and it doesn't really change the deck itself. It is a tech card.

[@haveaboavida]

before wishclaw talisman TES also played infernal tutor led and ad nauseam yet was still a different deck - and had way more in common with ant than this deck does. the play patterns are totally different, you don't have blue cantrips, you have a plan B in urza's saga, you don't have a graveyard engine like past in flames or pair of dice lost(or ill gotten gains), you're playing mox opal, city of traitors and ancient tomb and you don't have post-board answers to everything like ANT saga isn't the only difference here and I don't even think it's the most glaring one

[@399pi]

​@@garridy2834 This is clearly a very different deck from ANT. Two colors are cut entirely, the third is just a splash for one tutor, and there are no cantrips.

[@gamingtime1365]

Not really new still cool tho :D

[@GreatgoatonFire]

Impressive but also why I'd never play Legacy

[@marcschmidt320]

Title of the video is slightly misleading. I mean, sure it can kill on turn 1, but so can any other version of the storm decks, with the same core and has been doing so for ages. It's almost the same as saying "New football is round!"
