I just had the best game I've ever played in MTG Arena with one of your decks, my opponent was beating me and had two creatures on the board alongside two restless cottages, and I was barely hanging on with elspeth and her 1/1 lifelink blockers. I drew intrude on the mind, created a token and stalled for as much time as possible while basically sacrificing my creatures to block. Then, I luckily drew some lightning helix's and fires of victory, which lifegained me and got rid of the creatures and the restless cottages. Then, I drew chandra at around 16 cards left while my opponent had 31, and intrude on the mind. Double intrude on the mind because I felt like i had no way of winning, got two thopter tokens which left me at around 6 cards left. Began to create mirrex tokens and duplicated the tokens with three steps ahead + chandra double, and then i drew JACE. Milled my opponent for 15 which milled over more RESTLESS cottages and glissa's. On my FINAL turn, NO cards left, while my opponent still had around 10+, opponent on 4 poison counters, I managed to get 7 mirrex mites with three steps ahead duplication and chandra. Attacked, 11 poison counters on opponent and I won. Literally the closest and best game of MTG arena I have ever played. I absolutely wish there were replays now because I have already forgotten some of the details but it came down to the WIRE. At the end, with my 7 mites attacking, 1 thopter and 0 cards left in my deck, I said "Good Game", and my gosh, it was absolutely a good game, before gloriously watching my opponent burst into a poison death cloud thinking "How did I lose that game?". 😲😲 Man, thank you for your amazing decks, some of the most fun I have ever had in MTG arena and always feeling unique. I'm sad I still don't remember all the details of that game even though I just finishing playing it, and felt like my explanation didn't capture the pure epicness and intensity of that game but WOW. Keep up the good work man ❤

Oh man, that sounded epic :D Don't worry, seeing those thopters and mites being spammed conveyed very well sense of "oh no, I need to kill him soon" feeling :D Been there too! Happy to hear it was a win, sometimes all we need in seemingly hopeless situations is opponent not having perfect answers and somehow "it just works" - I learned to play even games where it seems I can't win, as miraculously you can sometimes snag a win :) Especially three steps ahead with sneaky tokens are surprisingly strong in the right moment, really accelerating the clock, while defending vs opponent plays Honored the game was with one of my decks, I can see it was driven with some holy purpose :D Wp man, and thanks for comment and Superthanks, appreciate it a lot!❤🦥 PS. Pinned because epic

Agree with the slickshot commentary. I reminds me when the appraiser combo was in pioneer. The metagame for a couple weeks was "no removal or instant speed interaction open? Guess that's ggez".

Nice to hear, always curious what others think about some cards/gameplay patterns :) Standard got extremely quick lately
@trixlee5102Ай бұрын
Standard BO1 is so dull at the moment. Mono Red and Boros, except when you decide to try a deck that's good against them. Then you'll get ramp, control, etc. The amount of sheer power they have given Boros and Mono Red is just ridiculous. The Slickshot dummy is the worst card I've ever seen for BO1.
@Penguins6687Ай бұрын
Couldn’t agree more. They’ve given Boros/Mono red so many more cheap weapons that’ll kill you in literally 2 rounds
@michaeltellier9044Ай бұрын
Don't forget how they get card draw for some reason to reload
@derrick031072Ай бұрын
Agreed, the matching algorithm will make sure you’d lose- so u’ll try to build new decks, maybe buy some new rares, mytics cards… 😂 Business…

Sick of being in the draw and seeing turn one novice inspector, turn 2 gleeful demolition into knight and playing another 1 mana creature before you've even played your second land. Absolute joke
@Penguins6687Ай бұрын
And meanwhile with the rotation coming up, control decks are losing crucial cards that’ll make it harder to even play that type in standard anymore

It was Sultai Day at The Slotherhouse, and with it, a plethora.... no, a cornucopia of Cornucopias! A great replacement for The Celestus. All the games were so much fun to watch!

That deck is really original and interresting, i wish i had all the mytics wildcard to get those big score card andgive it a try. By the way i don't like WoTC making a full sub set of mythic cards...
@SlothMtgАй бұрын
Glad you enjoyed the deck my friend :) The idea is that I showcase many different decks, and then you can choose which looks best to work into - even for player playing since beta like I did, I still need to buy the packs/extra stuff to showcase so many decks (so believe me, I know the pain;). Or you can just see deck in action on the video, without spending single wildcard🔥 On rest, all I will say is that I've seen more comments like this, with previous set release ;) ❤🦥
