That Was Fast 🦔 Vintage Cube Draft

[@Lapishunter1969]

"playing around daze because obviously." opponent doesn't have a single island and is tapped out. He was playing around the elvish spirit guide into crop rotate grab island daze you play. I respect how hard wired it is in his mind to play around daze no matter what.

[@MarkAvo]

Getting Dazed will do that to you IMO. I bet the people he’s got with Mana Tithe haves played around an open Plains ever since! Lol

[@aquanecromancer5776]

Caleb should really just start playing Legacy.

[@auberry8613]

@@aquanecromancer5776 Theres a lot of people that I wouldn't want to see playing legacy and caleb definitely isn't one of them

“I have one inspiring vantage, one spirebluff canal, and a bunch of colorless... I’m gonna take Gargaroth.”

[@JimButter10]

you can't argue with that logic

[@monsoon1234567890]

Really going above and beyond to show us the meaning of "run it back".

[@auberry8613]

He's sprinting it back

[@metalking837]

I like to listen to your videos at night before sleep. Dozing in and out out of sleep, only to be startled by Caleb yelling over avalanche rider.

[@beardedwendigo5291]

That second match against JBro you should remember to play your lands before up ticking Chandra since not only can she not play lands exiled with her ability, but you have to cast the spell exiled with it on the stack.

[@CharlotteMimic]

That's a good catch! A lot of the more modern cards are the other way, and it's an important nuance :)

[@beardedwendigo5291]

@@CharlotteMimic One reason to maybe hold lands is for Hazoret but it was already exiled the first turn. Otherwise it's usually correct to play land first I think

[@elbe0072]

Only thing that confused me was , you wanted usher to wheel and then picked non playble gargaroth over it :D

[@benjamin4624]

I did a white aggro splashing blue for time spiral, twister and bribery. It was a lot of fun surprising people with bribery in a mostly mono white deck

[@jameshanus3813]

Who cares how good showdown of the skalds is, ajani vengeant is way too cool to be cut from the cubs imo

[@CalebGannon]

I miss him so much lol, this is like kiora all over again

[@mulldrifter6040]

I mean it's clear as day they are just looking to shove the cards from the newest set in instead of using the best cards, Ajani is absolutely the better card and will be back in future iterations.

[@dougisacat]

Who cares about good cards anyway.

[@dougisacat]

Showdown is actually a good card. 4 for 1s are very powerful.

[@dougisacat]

I respect the mentality, but that the same mentality that kept nighthawk and ink-eyes in so long

[@bartoszpuzio8051]

@9:08 "I'm actually going to take Pia and Kiran over Strip Mine." - who are you and what you've done to Caleb?!

[@Matt-dc8lp]

I ❤ vintage cube week! Thanks for the content Caleb. Enjoy seeing other archetypes, especially ones without blue.

[@blakewilliams8148]

Caleb gets so sassy whenever his opponents play a sword

[@artlailey1496]

At this point it feels like you could have a prerecorded intro with “still no power” and you’d be right almost all the time

[@allenoh]

Ever been in a dream and something super unrealistic happens and then you realize you're in a dream? When Caleb passed strip mine I thought for sure this was not real.

[@sator_project]

As someone that runs a cube, Dreadhorde Arcanist is a real heartbreaker card. I really wish it was good enough.

[@CalebGannon]

the problem is that its either too good or not good, really no in-between

[@sator_project]

@@CalebGannon it kind of feels like a more extreme stoneforge. An enabler for a narrow card type is just is really hard to pull off in a draft format, without building your entire cube around it.

[@Kaosaur]

There was a god-tier Reanimator deck in this draft. I really feel like that's your blind-spot, Caleb.

[@Kaosaur]

@Varler Necromancy was last pick pack 1 and then Unburial Rites did the same

[@auberry8613]

Yeah little biases like that sometimes hold him back, like I get why he does it he doesn't like the deck as much, but being ready to nab anything open is important for these trophy streaks

[@Kaosaur]

@@auberry8613 Yeah, spot on. I think even at one point he explained that he doesn't like the deck.

[@Qegixar]

25:00 "Playing around daze because, obviously." He says facing an opponent with Mountains and Forests in play.

[@YayapLives]

Wish they had cut a bad monowhite or monored card for Showdown. Boros tends to be overshadowed by monocolor and Showdown is actually a reason to try splashing.

[@BassBaseAce]

Well, seems like the entire table agrees with you on showdown considering it went last pick

[@inamecomeunico8935]

6:39 how did ancient tomb came back but eidolon didn't... A part from that but looking at the first two rounds of draft I think red-black was the open lane, imma continue watching tho :)

[@vitorsantiago1075]

About that last round, its like you always say, sometimes you just get vintage cubed hahah

[@rwo23]

two drafts in a row "lets try big jeskai control. haha jk red white burn with some agro creatures and a decent top end" I mean, I don't hate it, in fact I'm here for it

[@danielcrosby1254]

To be fair you gotta go fast 🦔

[@guilhermefunchal775]

Lovely deck as always, Caleb. I just miss you forcing storm for a bit.

[@CalebGannon]

I'll definitely draft some storm, don't worry :p

[@MegaLolization]

Love that TeamJBro feature match!! Bless up homies

[@filippodardi2180]

17:58 Caleb confirmed diamond hand?

[@Hilelsagi]

I think i was in your pod lollll i was monored from pick 1

[@Hilelsagi]

I was hoping to wheel the shrine and

[@christophert.9237]

Sub 40 minutes vintage draft; either got recked or did the wrecking

[@legoupil1819]

A bit of both it seems

[@jiggy5152]

Will you be doing any streaming soon? Id love to watch a stream! PS: LOVE the art on insta

[@Sapreme]

wish you took dreadhorde arcanist + krark

[@dom_rocks7923]

That sonic in the in thumbnail :)

[@baxter740]

When was this recorded? I think I was in this draft pod :O

[@bobbysimon1078]

Why take Gargaroth over Usher?

[@Rediblackdragon]

Absolutely unfortunate ending, great showing otherwise

[@brinkbleash]

H-he's fast!

[@mulldrifter6040]

Wait, it's not his speed. He must be using the Chaos Emerald to warp!

[@joelstephenson]

Does anyone remember 4 colour mono blue Caleb

[@mindlessfool42]

Is that a Magda? After maligning it last time?? Looking forward to the redemption. Magda belongs right in Vintage.

[@wouterleten1982]

Good game!

[@alexandermoritz4937]

Yeah red was never open

[@dippn7047]

I tried coming up with a play on Swiss cheese to describe the swift cheese of match 3 but alas, everything I came up with had too many holes...

[@monty125874693]

I hate Through the Breach/Emrakul. It's just so cheesy. Hate it in literally any format it can be played in.

[@MapRef41N93Wx]

You have severe tunnel vision. Red wasn't REMOTELY open in the first pack. In fact, you could make the case that it was quite obviously not open by pick 7. You kept saying "red is open" when you jammed a third pick lightning bolt, sixth pick mizium mortars (what?) and got an 8th pick shrine, then proceeded to see only two unplayable red cards in the final 7 packs. You then fifth picked a Char in pack two (a barely playable last two pick exclusive card), and still didn't notice that you were first picking red leftovers. Then you claimed someone else moved into red, but at least two people were in red the whole time.

[@lukemorse7713]

caleb you totally took not red cards in hopes they all wheeled in pack 2 which was inviting someone to move in on your red. really poor man, i expect better from you. red was open but you gave it away.

[@CalebGannon]

the only 2 red cards I passed were runaway steam kin and eidolon of the great revel. I don't think those are crazy strong signals or anything

[@lukemorse7713]

@@CalebGannon your right went back to rewatch pack two. i guess eidelon is just a strong signal and you had an optional zurgo but he would have only been good in a real mono red kinda deck. i guess cards just got cut or someone really wanted to jump in on red. sorry my previous comment seems kinda snobby now. great video and great content. i really enjoy your videos. keep up the good work, i am definitely a fan.

[@vy1585]

wow you are playing that trash card showdown again?

[@CalebGannon]

I think its fairly decent in this deck. Worse than ajani, but still ok
