THEY MISSED THIS!!! Turn 4 Combo Kills | MYTHIC Izzet Aggro | MTG Arena

I don't understand what supposed to happen ....what's the end game how does he win

[@KevinOnEarth_]

To be honest, that deck was way cooler and more interesting than the standard Izzet deck CGB was playing. Granted it probably wasn't as "competitive" but the cool synergy was enthralling.

The win con for that deck is usually insatiable hemophage that drains when it mutates.

[@hcgtrplaya92986]

I’ve literally been running a budget version of this deck for the last week, not using 2x unleashes in a turn necessarily but the infuriates go a LONG way. One thing that would help ensure combo success is birgi, I run 3 of in mine and when she sticks it’s hell on earth for the opponent as I unload my whole hand into their face on turn 4, also you need from my experience at least 8 dual lands in your deck to get there because for entity you need either 2 blue + opt or 2 red + shock to consistently get the creature out...mana screw is real with this deck cause if you don’t hit your third land you get stuck BAD, otherwise not terrible

[@styfen]

That first game reminds me of an MMA match where one opponent was goofing off and dancing all over the place, and then he got TKOed with a head kick when he paused to do more dancing. "Lookit me! Lookit me! Looki....BANG!" LOL Quality magic content right here.

[@jeffw8674]

Just wanted to say that I think “Bird Punch” is both a great deck and band name

[@NorwegianQvirr]

If you full control when u cast u leash fury and then let the prowess resolve, and before the unleash fury goes off u cast ur second one so u get both prowess triggers before both unleash, u get 20 dmg instead of only 18 (prowess going off between the two furies). Cool combo though! Would love to see monored’s face at 24:16

[@helverus]

The music syncing with the end of the match at 9:45 was just perfect

[@GeniusYoshi]

Very good stuff as always!! I had built a similar version of this on my channel. I think that Sea Gate Stormcaller is a good inclusion that is lighter on the manabase than dual strike (with the same effect). I also really like Umara Mystic if you really want to go for the turn 4 kill.

[@austinpate6831]

The Royal Scions seems like a good add in this deck, allowing you a loot option and to push trample damage over the top if they have a flying chump blocker

[@ishae3198]

I thought for sure this would be the Goldspan Dragon combo deck that punked you in the other video, but this.. well, it's pretty close, actually! It looks awesome, as someone who loves Izzet nonsense I'll have to try it.

[@jackpabich763]

Mutate deck looked sweet, albeit rough against bounce spells. I also wonder if Raking Claws should be in the deck. It doesn't have the same combo potential, but it does cycle and allow for more card draw in the deck.The Royal Scions is also a way of having trample and pump along with filtering.

[@comokazijeff]

Blue has aggro?!?! I might convert...

[@KSechrist]

@45:00 shouldn't you leave a land on top to negate the planeswalker stealing your stuff for a turn?

I have been telling people Unleash Fury is a sleeper card for months now. Glad to see CBG of all people give it some props. I have been having some fun with Kinetic Augur and unleash fury lately. Would love to see a CGB treatment on that.

[@spyderfreek14]

This deck has similar mana requirements as Rogues, substituting in Red for Black. Therefore, I'd suggest starting with that mana base, with the obvious substitutions. Doing that, I get: 5 Island 4 Mountain 4 Riverglide Pathway 4 Temple of Epiphany 4 Fabled Passage 2 Shatterskull Smashing 2 Raugrin Triome Crucially, the extra Triomes and Fabled Passages get you to 19 blue and 20 red sources, which lets you much more easily cast a sprite dragon on turn 2, or phoenix/borrower on turn 3: strategy.channelfireball.com/all-strategy/mtg/channelmagic-articles/how-many-colored-mana-sources-do-you-need-to-consistently-cast-your-spells-a-guilds-of-ravnica-update/

[@Bayesic]

You know that scene in Raiders of the Lost Ark where that dude does like 1000 sword flourishes and then just gets shot in the fact by Indy? That's basically what happened in the first game

[@thesarcasticliberal]

I've actually been running this for a while, with only 2 Dual Strike, but 2 Raking Claws (1R, instant, give a creature double strike, cycling 2), and 3 Bonescrusher Giant instead of the 2 Unsummon and 1 Shock. It's pretty good, but extremely vulnerable to removal (as all glass cannon decks are).

[@dcnole]

Agree that 2 Spikefield Hazzard for Shock might be a key upgrade here. Was thinking this all video, and then you said it yourself in the closing.

[@KebapRocker]

that first game was insane! my mouth was open the whole time haha

[@abochavez]

when you have the two three man spells like that, you go even on your mana colors. I played with apparition and shatterskull charger. running even color mana always got me the mana. I also ran other mono color spells like Ecd and Embercleave. Even mana!!

[@Paddzilla]

I'm trying this right now. You are a much better player than I am. :p Added an extra land, though.

[@dominicburkard3060]

Awesome deck! On of my favorite strategies.

[@danlewis7707]

Omen of the Sea, opt and Castle Vantress plus the scry off of riddleform and the temple is why you used to flood. Tempo vs aggro equals different deck building strats and therefore diffrent mana. The game adjusts for this. Hence the screw.

[@juanchetumare]

The music ending right as you won in game one was the cherry on top.

[@NebulaMK]

“Everybody tells me I play too many lanes but I like winning games” such a good line.

[@NebulaMK]

I don’t know many paper magic players that would say that. The arena shuffle is garbage

[@wintervoid324]

I have been playing a version of the first deck. Has about a 55% win rate in Diamond, slowly working up to Mythic. Not the best deck to level with, but fun. The Shock is a flex card and have been trying many different cards instead, the rest of the deck is solid though, but more a fun deck then a competitive one. I do get Turn 3 kills about 5% of the time. Kill card is Hemophage. 4 Pollywog Symbiote 4 Birgi, God of Storytelling 4 Sea-Dasher Octopus 4 Vadrok, Apex of Thunder 4 Insatiable Hemophage 4 Dreamtail Heron 4 Shock 4 Open the Omenpaths 4 Valakut Awakening 4 See the Truth 4 Blightstep Pathway 4 Clearwater Pathway 3 Island 5 Mountain 4 Riverglide Pathway

[@comedyman4896]

The fact that this deck has a 60% winrate on the whole blows my mind. I feel humbled at the power of such jank.

[@thenutfyd]

7:20 when you make 2 minutes of absurde magic sword tricks, but CGB goes “Indiana Jones mode” and shots you in the face!!!

[@demonicell]

Made a version really close to yours I went 24 land with 4 of those being spikefield's. Seems to be ok. I might add one more land. I had a few games where I just destroyed them by turn 5 just as their wonderful on the ground ramp was getting going.

[@iradow]

Is this a commen deck? Im excited to see this. Just getting back into magic, and I made this deck almost as a complete copy without knowing people play it. Pretty cool :)

[@this19suffering]

Who else thinks that they made the shuffler even worse?

[@philliplangston2727]

Seriously. Like all of a sudden, I either flood out or get stuck on two lands

[@gabrielvieira3026]

I was thinking about that, but they probably did fix the shuffler

Make a better version of that Rodan mutate deck

[@jasonm.6442]

a friend of mine already has actually. All the mutate creatures with draw draw/discard effects and the black hemophage creature. Once the vadrok omenpaths combo goes off there's no stopping him digging through entire deck and winning with life drain pings.

[@roccofabrizionotarnicola8888]

I really like how you play, I think you are a really good player and I'm learning a lot from you. I see today you built a deck very similar to one I built some time ago and this makes me proud of myself. Ahah I also have embercleave in it, why did you decide to not use it?

[@gabe3704]

I really think the 4 opts is needed for this deck to help you dig and set up for a combo through a flood and or just to 1 mana cantrip and buff your creatures as well.

[@hcgtrplaya92986]

Opt actually is better as a 3-of rather than 4-of...I’ve run this deck roughly 200+ times with varying success and more often than not you’ll find yourself with 2-3 opts in hand and either a) not enough blue to make it work, or b) too much stuff on the field that needs a bounce..opt gets a trade in cards but at the loss of much-needed mana for better pump spells...it would be better to have pump spells that also draw

[@gabe3704]
