Also, more non-blue, non-artifact decks make a healthier format!!😊

Your last video was a gift for Christmas, now it's a gift for the New Year ! Thank you so much Kirb for illuminating most of my sundays by posting your videos. I hope 2024 will be full of good surprises for you, and that you will still post great content like you always did 😅

I'm just happy that Stinkweed Imp is good in a deck again. Downshifts can make all sorts of decks viable which is cool.

Very nice deck! I'm just a bit surprised the list doesn't have faithless looting in it. Might be worth considering.
@bigfootfighter41327 ай бұрын
You’d have to adjust the mana base to include much more red. Plus looting itself doesn’t count as a creature for the win con, and even though acorn harvest isn’t a creature it makes creature tokens in a pinch to flashback dread return It’s important the deck plays mostly creature cards so that the giant hits for as much damage as possible Though thinking about it, maybe you could replace 1 gnaw to the bone with 1 faithless looting. But I wouldn’t replace any of the creatures or other cards with faithless looting
@iceblue63647 ай бұрын
@@bigfootfighter4132 Maybe -1 gnaw to the bone, -1 acorn harvest, +2 faithless looting, -2 haunted mire, +1 geothermal bog, +1 wooded ridgeline. That also makes milling the red lands less of a problem.

I tried another league with Circle of the Land Druid and it felt even worse. Still went 4-1. Unsure what to put in this slot. Maybe exhume is the play? I don't know, don't really want to lower the creature count.

@Kirblinxy7 ай бұрын
Thanks! I don't know what you would cut for it. All the other cards are either required for the combo side of the deck or fill more cards into the GY than Street Wraith would.
@noxouphe43707 ай бұрын
Crawl from the Cellar is a bit better than Morgue Theft and it also synergises with Lotleth Giant and Mire Triton. I don't know if it's good enough for this deck though.
@AlastairGames7 ай бұрын
What do you think of "Circle of the Land Druid" instead of "Mire Triton"? It mills 4 instead of 2, and can grab a land from the graveyard to hand. How important is the death touch compared to the better milling?
@Kirblinxy7 ай бұрын
Unsure. The 2 life from Triton isn't nothing either. The deathtouch is mainly only relevant against terror.. The fact you only get a land once it dies is a little rough, but the larger mill could be better.

@WrennNsix7 ай бұрын
I’m trying to run less giants and some writhing Necromass. Necromass makes it so that gy hate hurts less, but the deathtouch on it is completely garbage lol life link instead would be great. Thanks for the video, always like to watch them! Happy new year!
@Xoulrath_7 ай бұрын
Yeah, I've never been a fan of creatures that big getting Deathtouch. It's almost never necessary. I mean I guess if you combo it with Menace or First Strike it's cool and has some applications. But most 5/5s don't need Deathtouch to finish off their blocker lol.
@rossmckendrick25117 ай бұрын
I'm not sure whether this would have worked in terms of ordering, but round 1 game 1 when the opponent was at 6 life, if you'd discarded the Dread Return in your hand to the Scrapwork Mutt, then sacrificed the Lotleth Giant and the 2 squirrel tokens as part of the flashback casting cost, could you have targeted the Lotleth Giant you'd just sacrificed to return it to the board for lethal?
@Kirblinxy7 ай бұрын
No, you have to have a target in your graveyard before you pay costs. There was a couple of times this came up during this league, so it would have been so much easier for me to find winning lines if it did work the way you hoped. Deck definitely makes you think.

Pauper manabases make 3 colour decks hard to make work. I assume affinity isn't what you are looking for? It is pretty much a control deck that just has free 4/4's you can bring back. Otherwise you would be better off with UR or UB Terror.
@None-jm3of7 ай бұрын
How about running exhume maindeck?
@Kirblinxy7 ай бұрын
The deck is very streamlined in this combo form currently. The deck is entirely creatures, lands and flashback spells so when you self mill you are guaranteed value. The only exception is when you hit all lands, which the deck need to cast its spells so we can't do much about that. The most expendable cards IMO are Gnaw To the Bone and Mire Triton, so if you want to try out exhume I would probably cut 1 Gnaw 2 Triton and see how that goes. It's just going to be sad when they get milled.
