This channel sending Vigilance prices to the moon.😂 Glad I got a few early

[@jmoneyvader2295]

also this video had good timing before the 5k

[@KrishekTheCruel]

I am fascinated by this deck. Gotta see if I can make enough trades to build and try it! I’ll be joining the Patreon soon.

[@SWUCUBE]

Childsen 3x is such a cool development.

[@EdgySithLord]

Will definitely be testing this more. I'm liking +1 raider -1 interceptor for the mirror.

[@SuperSecretTechMTG]

I'm running the search your feelings and a couple of spicy 1 ofs. Let's gooo

[@BadatBoardgames]

5k winner and the hulk placed in top 16 hehe well done

[@j453]

I've been wanting to build this.

[@jeffsmith5436]

This deck is definitely a menace. Using Aggression instead of the classic Command has some interesting options, like Open Fire, the Interceptor, Force Choke, Bombing Run etc. It seems to be trading the Command ramp cards, Overwhelming Barrage, etc. for more narrow removal. However giving up the ramp seems like it would open up the deck to being outpaced by aggro and midrange more often. I guess it depends on the individual meta situation.

Been loving vig out of aspect like too broken

[@acedobleace]

Vader Blue = Iden Red

[@SWU_KTOD]

Hardly!

[@SWUCUBE]

Ha! The 5K winner was playing a very similar deck! Was he in your discord?

[@SWU_KTOD]

He is in our discord but definitely all credit goes to him. He’s a great player. At least 6 of the top 16 are in the KTOD discord.

[@SWUCUBE]

@@SWU_KTOD you guys seriously represented! Congrats on the excellent showing!

[@JustinDesai-ze1kj]

He is and so is George the hulk - who the winner credited with the idea.

[@MrSpin5808]

Can you talk a little about the sideboard choices.

[@JustinDesai-ze1kj]

Hi - yeah so restock is for the mill mirrors and is another cheap card to play vs relentless to fizzle it's ability. heal vs sabine and get to wraths. probe to have some trade bodies that ping and also to play in control to see hands.

[@michaeljames2288]

Cool deck, definitely like it. But on a decent amount of testing, Boba and Leia works it most of the time.

[@MrSpin5808]

How? There is so much removal and set up. Where are you usually losing the game?

[@SWU_KTOD]

Vigilance Vader ate bobas alive all weekend at the recent 5k for what it’s worth - including knocking two out of our players out in the t16 and finals

[@michaeljames2288]

​@@SWU_KTOD For sure, saw that. It's a suffocating deck certain to shoot the moon now. It just took some getting used to to see how good it is.

[@Thenerd1110]

Vader blue just took the 5k tourney

[@SWU_KTOD]

We saw! Very cool!

[@kanten8775]

Kennedy Hawk paid 6 to remove a 3=> health unit and feel good about then outcome of a mill that would have had net 0 expected effect

[@MCM_Podcast]

I did wut?

[@doomfunk]

Hwhat?
