This deck is so much more powerful than I realized. Nice games!

[@lukecash3500]

It's always sweet that this flurry of content comes out during the weekend. Allows me to keep up :) At first I was a little skeptical of the Spike Sunday series but this is becoming another solid addition to your channel. Although tbh I could watch you participate in drafts for hours and hours... Now if only there were good online venues for Commander, it would be a blast to see your wacky brews.

[@EdgePitSwing]

Counters are my favorite mechanic. I really loved this. Thanks!

[@clericlumi]

Man I really love this deck. It was quite fun watching it.

[@randyporter4474]

Thank you for the upload, I'm counting this as your birthday gift to me.. I love it!

[@LegenVD]

Happy birthday!

[@PonchoExperience]

This is great, I would love to see more than 3 games!

[@a_fuckin_spacemarine7514]

Oh joy, another brutally fast and resilient aggro deck......... Yay 😭🔫

[@zackattackk2]

I'd love to see you do some commander gameplay... Would love to see what you brew for that

[@-EndlessHorizon]

Man what a powerful deck.

[@witherbloomxx7202]

Not a fan of this deck but you played it like a pro😊 Thumbs up from me

[@balazsgyekiczki1140]

Your games are so good.

[@bartschouten5334]

Would love to see a goblin razerunners deck in modern. Love your content btw keep it up.

[@superluckyhappylife2358]

I just finished watching.then I begin again.

[@alcr1680]

This deck is awesome! played it this weekened to a second place finish in my local pptq only lost finals due to inexperience. please play it in a competitive league to watch more matches!

[@ArthurHerbst]

that was vicious :D

[@EdwardEdwardEdward69]

2 uploads? what

[@RagingGoblin]

Ravager ... Recurring nightmares from Mirrodin Block are real. And still I can't help liking the deck.

[@louistetrault6729]

Question : how many counter would my ravager get if... (?) I have 2 Hardened scales on the table, a Steel Overseer that will tap to grant +1/+1, 2 forest and the Oran reef land that gives +1/+1 to creatures being summoned if taped. Is it ( 1 for being summoned +2 for the two Hardened scales, +1from the oran reef land +2 for the two Hardened scales, +1 from the steel overseer being taped +2 for the two Hardened scales = ) 9 X +1/+1 ?

[@LegenVD]

Sounds right to me!

[@veithr3293]

Suprized bioshift hasnt found its way into this deck. "Thanks for all those +1 counters arcbound ravenger" Inkmoth nexus

[@laukan]

Entertaining video once again! Would it be possible for you to play commander on video? Does MTGO support it?

[@LegenVD]

Technically yes, but commander is not my area of expertise.

[@MondSemmel]

Is there any logic as to why Darksteel Citadel is playable in Modern, while all other Artifact Lands are banned there, presumably precisely because of decks like this?

[@admiralcasperr]

Tobias Dänzer It gives only colorless mana, and this drawback is huge. If the Darksteel Citadel were to be replaced with for example Tree of Tales (green mana artifact land) it would be huge for Affinity and Modular Affinity since the manabase would be a lot cleaner - those decks could run so much more color - that's the reason why in Affinity you can't play more then 8 colored spells. Darksteel Citadel is a great balance, almost spot on between being overpowers AF and nonplayable in any way.

[@reidr7288]

Are these leagues?

[@intension7997]

Just some advice, usually your pacing in videos is perfect. In this video it was a bit fast.

[@intension7997]

While you were talking about the deck it was a bit fast, not in the gameplay, though I should clarify.

[@intension7997]

@@treycuret a lot of people think it's too slow because it seems like affinity, but it really is completely different. It plays way slower than affinity

[@intension7997]

@@treycuret oh lol I feel stupid, yeah I found it a bit too fast bc I'm not too familiar with modern, I just got into it.

[@aklepatzky]

What a bad tron player
