Just want to say thank you very much for the consistent uploads of vintage cube team draft. It is my favorite format to watch, done by one of the best players in the game, and also one of the best commentators. Happy holidays Luis, hope you and the family have a wonderful one!

[@sophiaseptember3833]

LSV talks like he's chronically online, and I love that shit. Keep saying shit like "It's joever" and "Okarino of Time." Its awesome.

[@LSVargas]

Yeah “like” I’m chronically online…

[@tommasomagnoli2830]

30 seconds into the video and I hear Okarino of time, LSV is not a person, is an intercultural language of love.

[@bricelory9534]

Great pivoting on Round 1 - I definitely think it was a good idea to speed up your deck on play game 2, and game 3 was a great juke, as you said.

[@makidiaz3894]

Talk about rising from the ashes like a Phoenix. I can’t believe how addicted I am to these daily uploads 😂

[@mattsturt4325]

Pack at 8:45 just doesn’t acknowledge underworld breach. First time ever especially since we haven’t seen the brain freeze

[@jonathanrichardson5330]

Noticed that too. Had to make sure I was watching the right channel.

[@peewee0224]

I love the red agro passing ancient tomb and city of traitors to being a red green midrange deck that would have been perfect with them.

[@AlkonKomm]

usually I dont get annoyed when I'm just watching somebody else play, regardless of whether they win or lose, but that game 1 was absolutely rage inducing lmao

[@peewee0224]

I loved it lol the timetwister into thoughtsieze was 👩‍🍳 💋

[@NeoSamurai13]

As always, love the videos and really appreciate you posting! I love that you're so consistent with posting, but I hope that you don't feel that it would be a failure if you take some time off from posting. We just appreciate when you do post. Also, on a different note, was there any consideration to adding Tishana's Tidebinder when the other LCI stuff was added? It seems like it might be decent in the cube.

[@dementievatz]

An interesting suggestion. Currently I believe there are no Stifle effects or anti-tutor effects to punish fetchlands, and I assume that’s an intentional choice by the designers.

[@MnemonicNex]

best refresh ever, videos only 30 seconds old :D

[@BalldoTM]

beat me to it!

[@fwg1994]

With the turn 2 True Name game, it seems like Vendilion Clique might have been better, since there was only one answer for the mox diamond in hand. I guess there's a chance of the opponent drawing another answer for the mox off of the Clique, but I feel like there's a high chance of being able to have the mox sit around for another turn to also get True Name Nemesis out, as opposed to just getting it out and hoping you can top deck before the opponent outpaces you.

[@fpejanovic]

Inti is great in Rakdos Midrange in pioneer/explorer. Does so much work!

[@el_maoo]

leaving one for the algo

[@lurro9963]

Would love to hear what you say about doomsday in the cube

[@adamwasburn-moses2284]

Metamorph Ring does give you protection, only know from playing jewel shops

[@ThePhazedOut]

Can also confirm as I have copied it with Sculpting Steel.

[@turbobrew]

At 43:25 you can chain lightning the manglehorn and then you attack and have two untapped treasures with a land drop to play the caretaker.

[@Princeofseance]

If nobody got me I know ragavan and inti got me

[@marcsteinbruegge254]

Feywild caretaker finally made the cut haha

[@WilliamMacLeod-en3pm]

No love for Malcolm the blue flying looter? Seemed pretty decent when I’ve played it in cube

[@WilliamMacLeod-en3pm]

I spoke too soon lol he got Malcolm on the wheel

[@mickeypigknuckles]

Has LSV ever seen Force and not said, “This is a perfect Force of Will deck”?

[@TheoryTechDotDek]

Similar to legacy, by turn 3 in vintage cube you need to fairly consistently be doing something busted, or be able to prevent something busted. If the power 9 is the best example of doing something busted fast, force is the best example of preventing busted things. So honestly, thinking of force as pseudo power isn't insane.

[@mattie3875]

I've heard him say "This isn't a Force of Will deck, sadly" 2nd and 3rd packs, but it's a hard one to pass up!

[@amills1244]

Are cube packs made at random? Or is there a rhyme/reason? Because all these packs were just heinous

[@dkay182]

Some people "weight" their cube, treating stuff like power as rares so you could only open one per pack, essentially making artificial rarity like normal draft. I don't believe the official MTGO cube uses weighting and I know for a fact their draft server does not. Packs are totally random, and sometimes just shake out insane or awful.

[@BetaJim22]

48:12 too early to concede IMHO. True-Name into Metamorph True-Name still beats the board. Uro will draw 3 cards and deal 7 before you get both down but after that you stabilize and might be able to chip with fliers. Still probably under 5% to win since you can beat maybe 1 more threat but probably not 2 or more and they were going to draw a couple cards. But we've all seen games where you wheel into 6 lands and have 3 more on top. You had outs.

[@mattie3875]

Yeah, not impossible. Probably less than 5% with opponent with 6 cards, drawing extra card + life every turn, though if LSV drew an island and could eventually Otawara the Uro, assuming opponent drew only lands with no real gas. But might not be worth the extra tilt

[@jeffbriem]

Can’t punt mono red. Just count to 20.

[@GeeBeeEh]

R/u deck, and not picking up the kj combo pieces on the wheel in the last pack. Man, everybody hates the modern combo in this cube 😅

[@razlotan7504]

No respect for twin combo by anyone wow

[@cesarramon4636]

.

[@Stokkeland23]

That was an incredibly rough draft but i'm not a fan of Oko first pick into Ragavan second pick.

[@californiaplant-basedeater2761]

Oko, FoW, Mox Diamond... These are all worse in a 6-player queue, not high picks. 1-2 was a just record.
