THIS IS SO MEAN! Emergency Powers Combo | Standard MTG Arena

[@lelandgrigsby988]

Underworld dreams seems like it would work great here.

[@covertgoblue]

It does! But the black is a splash, so Tezzeret is better on the mana. Dreams is only good if you are going off with Powers too, as opposed to the Narset combo which doesn't give cards to the opponent. Overall I prefer Tezzy.

[@picharellano]

Monoblack magic used the underworld + ob nixilis to do more damage. His deck is more explosive, whereas CGB's take is more reliable 🤠

[@LiqwdE]

@MoipaZ agreed. But in cases like that you could always but a tizzy in the side board for fae access. Combos like this are multidirectional, so many ways you could go. You can also do food tizzy.

[@piotrstolarczyk]

More Underworld Dreams less Narset ... like 4 of each

[@LiqwdE]

@@leouvarov5106 technically speaking. If they have to draw to get treasure. Each treasure is 1 point of damage. And each draw is 1 point of damage. They are equally as powerful, just no life gain. So for 6 mana or gain do deal 1 and gain 1. Or deal 2. Either way is a valid option.

[@sheauwn6974]

Discard your hand *☑* Draw seven cards *☑* Each opponent discards their hand *☑* Each opponent does not draw seven cards *☑*

[@evahelie7207]

I remember seeing lvd run a similar deck, but I dont think even he thought of playing powers on opponents upkeep so that they draw no cards with narset! You are a twisted human being

[@Joxa514]

this is a really old trick

[@Siowen_art]

Lvd played Underworld Dreams. Narset is a bit of an anti combo if you want to get treasure tokens off Smothering Tithe.

[@gingermlg]

@@Siowen_art it's not a nonbo if you're giving yourself 7 cards and your opponent 0...

[@Siowen_art]

@@gingermlg It's a nonbo with Smothering Tithe right? Opponent draws no cards, you gain no treasure tokens. If you throw Emergency Powers with a couple of Tithes in play, you get 14 mana tokens to continue with your new 7 card hand. Narset and Emergency Powers is a good combo, but Narset, Emergency Powers and Smothering Tithe is not.

[@gingermlg]

@@Siowen_art I'm aware you don't get the treasures. However, that doesn't matter if you put your opponent to 0 cards in hand, because you're winning that game.

[@KChaos005]

Deck is disgusting. I like it

[@Redsoxfanmatt]

Sweet! Thanks for doctoring and playing my deck. Was a fun stream!

[@z1X2c3V47]

I misread the notification add, "this is so ME" I saw Emergency Powers, and agreed, that is certainly a CGB kinda card...

[@deboozombie23]

I had an opponent with "Ob Nixilis, the Hate Twisted" and "Underworld dreams" with "Folio of fancies", running the emergency powers / tithe combo

[@johnremembers7780]

How did that deck work? Sounds interesting..

[@deboozombie23]

Roughly Same thing, but no Tezzeret - not sure about narset, I dont remember about the rest - he drained me, basically -

[@johnremembers7780]

@@deboozombie23 Must have been a good build. Would of like to see that deck build.

[@DD1Spawn]

Might have been me haha. I run this variant of the deck as you claimed with underworld dreams + ob nixilis as wincon. It's a really fun jank deck. aetherhub.com/Deck/Public/239168

[@shmuckintosh]

I think Mono Black has a video going full jank with the idea

[@Bluecho4]

Love this combo. Hell, I just love Smothering Tithe. One of the best additions to White's arsenal in a long time.

[@evilcharles]

"What can men do, against such reckless hate?" was the quote you were thinking about. Theoden says it to Aragorn...

[@BasilWallace]

I enjoy your easter eggs. My favourite was, "A better Elspeth - Card not found" sensible chuckle from me, good CGB, sensible chuckle from me.

[@_illuziun_]

A friend and I over in Amazonian's discord have been running a version of this deck for a while now. We use the Ob Nixilis/Underworld Dreams combo with Smothering Tithe. I like this Tezzeret/Narset version a lot. Thanks for sharing!

[@OrbGoblin]

The Imperious Oligarch and Judy Dench was frikkin hilarious!

[@TheSkarTV]

feels bad for the r/u player in the second game who was trying to draw those extra cards. F

[@Dog3D]

TheSkarTV they kept throwing their hand away lmao

[@chromitehertz9016]

I think they were going for the ultimate once the narset died.

[@sladjanavukas5420]

He didnt have good option.(or any)

[@francescogiacomopelagatti8221]

State of emergency, the title of this video fits so perfectly what s going on these days. Thx Cgb for the entertainment you are providing is during these hard times.

[@giovillalobos2273]

ZerWer thank you for taking one for the team! @CovertGoBlue , you owe him ... most people would have quit out of spite.

[@Aardcore]

even when he monologues not to @ 18:18, Izzet player hits the scions with the +1 anyway and hilarity ensues LMAOOOO

[@joedettloff5466]

I am so happy you did this video. I have always loved this combo. Folio of fancies is my favorite card because of this combo.

[@mistaed3]

Shoutout to ZerWer for playing that out!!!!! Great deck CGB love your videos

[@MadMakem666]

That was fun to watch the laser!

[@jrvaughn9038]

I love this combo so much! Plus, Tezzerets animation is like my favourite on Arena. Give 'um the laser! Kaboom!!

[@flaremag1975]

I'm glad someone perfected the strategy. I played this deck but aggro in Dimir with Tezzeret as the alternate wincon like a year ago vs you on a fan challenge Friday, I'm FLAREMAG in Arena so maybe you remember haha.

[@Davealapoo]

All hail ZerWer for being curious and interested even if it's not going his way.

[@Jaymanhaldy42]

Seeing the laser hand shoot is ultra satisfying. Best way to win on arena.

[@chucheeness7817]

18:57 G1 Prime: "Okay, Megatron, let's just go for some Energon shakes then"

[@mysticdarknel3646]

I enjoyed watching how fast the deck really worked. That was awesome, I'd play the deck.

[@Arbaal]

15:38 CGB at his best, only thing missing is the Deal with it-glasses

[@michaelmcphee2006]

HOW HAVE I NEVER SEEN ANYONE USE THAT LEGENDARY/GLASS CASKET TRICK?!?! so smart

[@scottishmaninblue2]

It would be good to see you play the Bant combo with Emergency Powers, Smothering Tithe and Nyxbloom Ancient. It's disgusting.

[@shooweri3666]

What a cool build! I seem to enjoy these jank decks most, really looking forward to trying them myself.

[@AlmaWolfborn]

I really liked your new player experience videos you had, maybe when the next set gets released having that additional coverage would be sort of helpful to some of us less experienced players.

[@Maervyn]

Tezzy-kun is back and rolling! What a time to be alive :3

[@Badassest]

Omg- that Zerwer battle was Epic!😮😁😁😁

[@666WolfWere]

Awesome!!! I was waiting for a junky deck like this! It is awesome! Thx!

[@WarpKL]

the lack of Jace in the wish board is down right Negligent.

[@shapeless6755]

gotta love the artstyle on azorius cards

[@alexeideberner7841]

Hey CGB, I believe "I said no" is a character from an old British children's tv show called Stoppit and Tidyup. Random fact of the day for you!

[@jpankhurst82]

This looks cool, I run the Thousand Year Storm version with Electrodominance, Ominous Seas and Mythos of Iluna as Storm payoffs but may give Tezzeret a go as an alternative to the Electrodominance

[@zivshani6214]

Hey its you , its CGB. your legend lore casket play was the most satisfying thing i have ever seen. i was truly amazed my love for you ever grows best of love

[@covertgoblue]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@vincentkeehl]

What kind of microphone do you use?

[@garrettrast5186]

Looks like a lot of fun, thanks for the video 👍

[@WrathOfMega]

Why are the graphics so good? I've never seen arena on youtube be so crisp and snappy. Even your other MTGA videos running on the same settings don't look like this.

[@raymondortizrivera4368]

Holy bean fart juice batman!!! That was awesome

[@bernieklau8063]

Nyxbloom works with treasures too! GLORIOUS JANK!

[@covertgoblue]

ok Ali

[@kasmanian6908]

Are there any decent decks that use Rule of Law? I was trying to make a mil using it with Folio and I usually die before I can drain them fully.

[@exeed1337]

I'd love to see a pay-life deck, with the blood broker leading it

[@mohnmann]

im running a lifegain/bolas citadel deck atm, its disgusting not this level of disgusting but pretty disgusting. 50+hp filling the board with citadel disgusting. most people give up when i fill the board through citadel, i dont blame them. ;) Have to try try the broker, it seems like the perfect card to make the deck even more disgusting.xD

[@NorwegianQvirr]

26:38 - no resolve all, he paid to not have the option of paying xD too many taxmen knocking on his door :D

[@johnremembers7780]

Hi Big Guy.. I appreciate what you doing especially at what everyone's going through right now.. I just want everyone to keep faith.. we'll all get thru this.. prayers to everyone & god bless.

[@sebbecht]

looove this deck. it does need some krakens though.. all those tentacles!!!

[@Semnyi]

I just pulled this combo off two minutes before finding this video LOL

[@undercoverscab5570]

Dimir nightmares is my favourite deck right now. Would love to see your twist on it!

[@romagafarandroid]

It was very fun! Please, play lich's mastery combo!

[@kyleshick8360]

Ok, this is my favorite jank strategy by far

[@freddyfreddy1841]

My first KZbin comment ever. Yeah...This deck was that much fun!! Keep the awesome vids coming CGB!

[@bellamychae]

I think I've been doing a bit too well with my mana tax decks in the arena, that first scoop from Izzet looked familiar...

[@benutzername5328]

F for Cacciatorpediniere

[@Jigsaws_Game]

20:25 I feel for them Cgb 5 seconds later I'll just take your last bit of hope with conquers death

[@FlopGaze]

More jank the better! Ali's version with nyxbloom ancient is also pretty sick

[@keipox8426]

Combo was amazing CGB!

[@batcow5148]

This video is a great example of why Leovold emissary of trest is banned in commander

[@ikewhaite4233]

How do people get those cool owls? How are they doing that?

[@NecromancyForKids]

Paying money or lots and lots of gold.

[@Luiszasa]

Man I am a huge fan of your videos, so many ideas to have fun in MTG Arena, I know that we need to be patreon to ask for decks, but actually, I am in a bad financial situation and I would love to keep you doing this, but I can't... days ago I was trying to do a Liliana / Gideon deck because the lore, but I don't find a good way to keep it together... I know I know but if you have time and want to make someone really happy, you can try to do a nice Orshov deck with these two awesome planeswalkers.

[@ВалентинТерентьев-п4р]

I'm trying to build sultai version of Tezzeret with food tokens right now, tho. Does anybody have a suggestion?

[@afk5112]

Yay!!! Esper!!!! Go CGB 💙🖤 ☕!!!!

[@1284GNGN]

I'd scoop on a draw-2 deck against two Tithes as well. He'd be giving you 3+ artifacts a turn.

[@instinctz1]

that is a dirty combo.

[@Arbaal]

10:06 Judi Dench Boss

[@lava2istrue]

I just feel like underworld dreams + emergency powers would be a dick move

[@ZorFrozen]

Thank you ZerWey!!

[@ShortShanks27]

I played this deck 1 time. Felt bad to watch them wait for me to get 60+ damage before a tez came down.

[@mxschnetzer]

Awesome!!! 😁👍🏻💯

[@Grautfyrsten]

You should turn off the blur effect, it looks horrible on youtube due to the 20fps video. Other than that great vid as always 😃

[@Jake-io1vu]

What would you replace Teferi with now that he's gone?

[@somedudeontheinterwebs45]

Removal, the good kind

[@lucius6639]

As always, this is a great video.

[@Ganjamuffins]

I think going with 1 tezzy on the sideboard isn't a bad idea. I dunno about you but when I play 2 copies of a card in a deck sometimes I never draw it.

[@StijnHommes]

18:23 Some people just don't read...

[@EVIL-t4o]

This deck was surprisingly good

[@AdamGRiley]

Interesting and fun deck

[@evanbeeser3033]

I think Underworld Dreams and/or Ob Nixilis would work very well

[@tobbes_ruhrdyne]

I love it, and this - by rule - marks it officially as "not jank" :D Nah serioulsly, I love this idea and wanna mingle with it plus I really enjoyed the legendary showcase, I learned sth 2day keep it up \o/

[@jonathanyan188]

can you make a deck using chulane?

[@RawrJrRoar]

i realise you only against izzet second draw and orzhov deck. no monored?

[@aiden_macleod]

Sounds like fun, but being primarily a Rakdos player, the only Blue effects I'm concerned with are those pesky "Gain control of target..." effects. Otherwise, I eat Blue on my cereal every day. A perfect counter to this deck is Underworld Dreams, so you draw as many cards as you want to there, buddy.

[@powerplay1939]

This Deck is really Fun 😂😎👍

[@williamwalton9154]

Mean, but FUN!

[@darksteelmenace595]

I have a Commander deck similar to this. Let's just say most people start to hate it once sth like notion thief hits the field

[@Wizardofexisting]

I thought Jank week was over? Is CGB gonna climb to mythic with this?

[@zyibesixdouze4863]

It's a pity Jank Week is already over, I was hoping you would do a Tezzeret treasure/food deck

[@toddlink2067]

The laser is just such a satisfying finish to such a janky deck

[@sladjanavukas5420]

2 months ago monoblack did this deck. Tnx for fun × 2.

[@Irxoad]

Hey, how about this "strange" request: I think that some of your subscribers are italians (Well, at least I am one), so could you do a video playing the colours of my country's flag (Green, white and red, so a naya deck) in these days of quarantine where your videos are among the few enjoyable things we have left? Any form of moral support is well accepted. Anyway, nice combo-deck.

[@alessandropassera6421]

Ah, that's the reason you search for old cards! I wasn't trying to be a prick or anything, I thought it was some inside joke I was missing

[@picharellano]

Friendly reminder that you forgot to pin your second channel in the comments CGB, in the description you left the main one 🤠

[@justincurtis1081]

ZerWer the real MVP!

[@aidanmontmeny502]

nice lord of the rings reference

[@hildegans4945]

Please add some underworld dream for the kill

[@bernieklau8063]

Me: Sees MTGA has an event that lets you build a build a deck without owning the cards. Smothering tentacles or Esper Powers? After rewatching the video, esper powers

[@ifym1]

lol just watched mbm's video and im feeling deja vu

[@Arbaal]

Feel sorry for Cacciatorpediniere

[@MrTepik]

Im new, wth is fae of wishes, how didnt i see it, and why in gods name did i craft 2 karns thinking that mechanic is so unique i have to play it :(

[@ericadams2045]

I love this degeneracy.
