🆕 Ten New Brews Re-Do! 🆕 ⚪🔵 - Cerebro Control 🧠 - (Phyrexia: All Will Be One Standard)

[@Livn4God99]

Still think the deck should have been running 4 syncopate. But I love the deck! Great stuff Jim

[@TheChzoronzon]

Yep... i like 3...and Blue Sun has been disapointing, with all those sweepers...same as the Lessons and Scatters, swapped then for Experimental Augurys, Farewells and a couple Walkers (Teferi is good with all the big card draw, and Emperor always deliver)

[@rekenner]

"Hopefully not Mono Red again, mix it up some, get a little variety please" *Opp plays Grixis triome* The monkey paw curls.

[@erichurst1731]

Heck yeah, I’m glad you redone this one. I’ve been playing it myself just BO1 and have had some fun with it.

[@skykur]

13:45 “Tryin to get that oil- Ohhh hoooo” Classic

[@calebhowe7842]

I have really liked substituting stern lesson for experimental augury. It can act like a free spell with mindsplice out, help push the last poison counter, and most fun, fiddle with fable of the mirror breaker and wedding announcements. Wedding announcement can have the second activation skipped straight up, and fable, you can make them have less selection by triggering II early and most importantly walk the flipped side into your removal/board wipes by flipping it early. I am also interested in this deck in pioneer where sphinx’s rev and pull from tomorrow can replace silver scrutiny

[@AngerManZero]

Love the videos, Jim! Thanks for all the Entertainment :)

[@walrusassociation9317]

This and sticky fingers were my favorites this time around. So creative

[@masonkoch8100]

I absolutely love this deck. Spending some wildcards on this for sure.

[@FlyingSpaceOstrich]

As much as I hate UW control, this deck seems pretty cool. I lost to it one time, where my opponent cast White Sun's Twilight for 12, gave them all haste, and killed me out of nowhere at the end of a 25 minute game. I was too impressed to be salty lol

[@gregoryromine6671]

I love this deck. I've swapped out blue sun's twilight for farewell to greater success.

[@donzen9749]

temporary lock down's two mystery characters are Jodah, the big mage guy of dominaria, and Stenn, who was the compleated sleeper agent amongst them

[@cladothehobbit8290]

Really enjoy this deck, would love to see more of it as it reminds me of some cloudpost control decks from penny dreadful. What would you think about taking this into an event?

[@francescogulisano2917]

I love how one-sided the wins with this deck are

[@jinxx9515]

Been running a similar list since release. Hit mythic for the first time this season doing it. Only have time to play like 5 games a day so yea.

[@Rhystic_Buddy]

Check out CGB’s version if you play best of one. It’s fairly similar but is designed to fight against the mono red and soldier decks plaguing mythic

[@mattfenner7824]

First time was Ten New Brews This time it’s One Brew Re-Do

[@Draw1Jeff]

I'm definitely a fan of main-deck 2x Lockdown over Blue Sun's. Our win con is a wrath, so most of the time we're blowing up the stolen creature(s) anyway. It's also so good at clearing up the board of early beaters like Bloodtithe Harvester and underdog, which this deck struggle against. Plus I've often eaten the clue tokens that Fateful absence leaves behind.

[@TheChzoronzon]

I also took out the BS (pun intended)

[@Divinevert]

Problem with lockdown is its not a wrath. It's just temporary and vs the white decks, they board in artifact hate and just have incidental enchantment hate (loran, cathar, etc)

[@FlourescentPotato]

You don't need to milk value off the wrath, you'll win eventually so just wrathing your own creatures is fine too

[@TheChzoronzon]

@@FlourescentPotato Stealing a single creature just enables the removal almost every deck have... minor, usually inconsequential tempo advantage and that's it. Very meh...more card draw or some PW instead (Wanderer or Teferi) is much better, imo

[@zachariahhuey9876]

@@Divinevert yes, however blowing up everything later is a fine answer to this

[@MikulOnIce85]

45:25 If that stern lesson was an experimental augury, you might have been able to dig your way into the game ;) That aside I'm very happy to see this deck get a second look over. These kind of decks are so much fun.

[@sbfencer]

Jim - what days, if any, will you be at Dreamhack San Diego? thinking of grabbing a day pass but not sure when i can go!

[@JimDavisMTG]

All days

[@Divinevert]

Ditch Stern Lesson, add Thirst for Discovery. And boom, much more draw

[@TheChzoronzon]

Experimental Augury is good as early selection and synergizes with Apparatus later

[@Divinevert]

@@TheChzoronzon in the control and midrange matchups, where they are trying to duress you and play all their 2-for-1 threats, you just need a pure volume of cards. Drawing 3 and pitching a basic is just a huge win most of the time. If you have to discard 2, at least you dug the same depth and had some additional selection by being able to discard trash from hand.

[@rekenner]

@@TheChzoronzon Except that Anticipate isn't "good selection". It's never really been playable, except in very low power standard formats, which this isn't

[@TheChzoronzon]

@@rekenner It's not Anticipate, it's Anticipate + Proliferate. And Impulse has been an staple for years in Monoblue spells. In a deck full of X spells, I gladly swap one more card seen for a counter on Apparatus, the core of the build.

[@TheChzoronzon]

@@Divinevert In a deck like this, imo, what you want it's to survive until you can cast a big White Sun. The mix of selection and proliferate does that admirably well For the control match up, where you aren't time pressed, you want to find and cast some big Scrutiny. Again, it's good for that. And early on it baits counterspells and let's you find your Negates to protect your big Scrutinies. I don't like to pitch Lands in this deck, btw... I want to drop one every turn

[@bananaflame]

oh no, cgb scooped you with this list 1 hour early 😵 commenting for our og Jim

[@dbldekr]

this deck gives me Titan's Nest from Ikoria standard vibes.

[@balbadorf989]

The proliferate anticipate is basically a 1 mana grow your mind splice apparatus. I think you could probably use at least 3 for some better selection

[@kaemonbonet4931]

It's basically free if you have an x spell because it pays for itself. I think it's probably better than the discard draw spell simply because it's a 2 drop which might get you to your lands 3/4 when you're waiting to drop the apparatus

[@R3ach4Th3Sky]

Jim is so good at magic he loses and still manages to rank up lmao

[@MCKejml]

Chuck Norris would reach mythic by losing. Except that he never loses.

[@prplprince8730]

10 new brews: the second sip

[@hopefvlromantic]

Match 2, couldn't you have white suns' for 2 the last turn to gain 2 life and make 2 mites? seems like it leaves less outs for them than holding it

[@chocolatepiegames3617]

I always end up running 4x union because of the absurd amount of matches against mono red

[@pizzaparty3901]

The problem with drafting at my local game store was that you'd get like 5-7 people never 8.

[@thebackwoodsgeek5115]

There’s no link for the deck list in the description even though it mentions it. Very curious in this deck list.

[@TheChzoronzon]

Look in the previous vid about this deck

[@JimDavisMTG]

Nicole here! Sorry, I must have misclicked the copy-paste! mtga.untapped.gg/profile/d2b05c8d-0b0b-45c7-b108-f520cb235225/C237D55E2E6FD774/deck/145ca705-855c-4a15-9886-0ff8dcc1ef91?gameType=constructed&constructedType=ranked&timeFrame=last_two_sets

[@MerchantMarinerEngineer]

Nice

[@IzidioAlex]

Worse than bad publicity, it seems that Wizards wants everyone to forget that PT existed. It didn't even end and there was already more talk about March of the Machine spoilers, and yesterday they announced a bunch more stuff.

[@cannonspectacle5195]

Should call these "re-brews"

[@williamw8590]

Your response to game 1 against grixis is exactly how I've been feeling. Maybe it's cuz they've been playing mostly the same cards since new capenna but man fighting grixis has just been boring lately imo

[@zachariahhuey9876]

Temporary lockdown permanently rids you of your ramp from stern lesson 😢 probably still worth it but something to keep in mind

[@MainTopmastStaysail]

Deck's been very impressive. While Grixis did take it apart both losses had screw/flood and could have been real games.

[@rekenner]

Jim didn't flood in game 1, it was just a long game in a high land count deck

[@davidglennon9157]

been playing a Jeskai version of this in Explorer. Sphinx's Revs, Sublime Epiphany, Magma Opus, Banefire, Thassa's Interventon; whole deck just feels like so much value once you get the Apparatus online

[@ericlizama8552]

Why not run Devious Cover-Up? Not long before Mindsplice makes it Counterspell with upside.

[@rekenner]

Because when you don't have mindsplice in play with 2+ counters, the card is awful. But if we're already in the position where we have mindsplice on 2 we're already ahead

[@BraghDaMan]

It's really sad for Wizards when a "Promotional Tour" happens and Wizards doesn't promote it at all. Glad you did well, but man Wizards' priorities are in the wrong places, putting it mildly.

[@recusantvessel]

grixis midrange is so 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮 Banning fable might actually be what finally beats back the U/R/X midrange imo
